About Yatharth Geeta - Science of Religion for Mankind: What were the inner feelings and emotions of Shri Krishna when he preached the Gita? All inner feelings cannot be expressed in words. Some can be told, some are expressed through the body language, and the rest are to be realised which can only be understood by a seeker through experiences. Only after attaining the state which Shri Krishna had been to, an accomplished teacher knows what Gita says. He simply does not reiterate verses of the Gita but, in fact, gives experiences to the inner feelings of the Gita. This is possible because he sees the same picture which was there when Shri Krishna preached the Gita. He therefore, sees the real meaning, can show it to us, can evoke the inner feelings and would lead us on the path of enlightenment. Rev. Shri Paramhansji Mahraj was also an enlightened teacher of such a level and the compilation of his words and blessings to grasp the inner feelings of the Gita itself is the 'Yatharth Geeta". About Author: The Author of the Yatharth Geeta, Swami Adgadanand Ji Maharaj is a saint who is bereft of worldly education, yet is internally organised by the grace of accomplished Guru, which become possible after a long practice of meditation. He considers writing as an obstacle on the path to the Supreme Beatitude, yet his directions become the cause for this treatise. The Supreme Being had revealed to him that all his inherent mental attitudes have been nullified excepting a minor one writing of "Yatharth Geeta" Initially he had tried his best to cut this attitude too, through meditation, but the directive prevailed. Thus the treatise, "Yatharth Geeta" become possible. Where ever mistakes crept into the treatise, the Supreme Being himself rectified them. We bring forth this book with the wish that the Swamiji's motto "the internalized archive peace" would become "peace for everyone at the end". ‘Vishwagaurav’ (Pride of the World) Title was conferred on the reverend Swami Ji by World Religious Parliament on the occasion of the last Mahakumbh of the century at Hardiwar in the presence of all Shankeracharyas, Mahamandleshwaras, Members of Brahman Mahasabha and Religious Scholars of forty-four countries. ‘Bharatgaurav’ (Pride of India) Title was conferred on Swamiji on the occasion of last mahakumbh of the century, for his book ‘Yatharth Geeta’ – A truthful analysis of Srimad Bhagavad Gita, the scripture for all mankind, on 10.04.1998. Swami Shri Adgadanandji was felicitated Vishwa Dharam Sansad on 26.01.2001, during the Mahakumbh festivities at Prayag as ‘Vishwaguru’ (the Man of the World and prophet) for his work ‘Yatharth Geeta’ (commentary on Srimad Bhagavad Gita). Besides for serving the interest of the masses, he was honoured as Vanguard of the society. The Audio and the text of Srimad Bhagavad Gita Book - Yatharth Geeta is available in various Indian and International Languages.
