Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

The Anugita is a conversation between Krishna and Arjuna at the Pandavas' palace after the Kurukshetra war had ended. It is included in the Book XIV of Mahabharata, In that sense, Anugita is the second discourse by Krishna to Arjuna, the first one being in the form of Bhagavad Gita, included in the Book VI of Mahabharata. Anugita explores the cycle of birth, death, and rebirth, and how individual actions (karma) determine one's destiny and the experiences of the soul (jiva) in the afterlife. It provides insights into the means of achieving liberation from this cycle, emphasizing self-realization and spiritual wisdom. Anugita elaborates on the three fundamental qualities (gunas): Sattva, Rajas, and Tamas-and their effects. It discusses the duties and stages of life (ashramas), the importance of dharma (righteous conduct) and tapas (austerity) as paths to spiritual growth. Anugita beautifully integrates the disciplines of austerity, sacrifice (yajna), and yoga, showing how yoga elevates and fulfils the other two, leading to self-realization. All the above-mentioned concepts of Anugita are discussed in details in this book consisting of 3 sections and 42 chapters.
