19th Akshauhini algorithm of the Gita
19th Akshauhini algorithm
of the Gita is a book which will give you the basic as well as the most debated
concepts of Gita, the holiest, the most philosophical book ever produced (if at
all we consider it as a produced book). Gita, as described by the author,
Haribakth, is the text collected directly coming from the supreme being – Lord Krishna!
True and undoubtedly, one who believes in the Vedas and knows at least the
basic nuances of our Hindu Dharma and the greatness that the scriptures possess
will believe what Haribakth has to offer. Moreover, what we would like the most
in the book is that it’s not only for the intellectual readers like most of the
spiritual books generally are; even a basic reader or a beginner in the Gita
studies can easily and very usefully study this book. The nuance and the core
of the book has been described very beautifully in the book by the author. We
will mention some of those qualities of the book in the course of this review.
If you got the book, go to page
number 44 and you will fund a table. This table is wonderfully drawn… you can
find the answers to mostly raised questions by the people who study Gita either
for the first time or so many times. Nonetheless, the questions are asked by
many people who don’t read Gita as well. For instance, the questions on
knowledge, the questions on supreme being, the questions related to person with
and without knowledge and many more… these questions are also the philosophical
debates, in other words, which are carried out day by day. Such a table which
relates these questions to the verses of Gita and answers them is truly
commendable!
Many other things are there in the
book 19th Akshauhini algorithm of the Gita which will attract the
readers. Talking about the language of the book which is really kept simple.
You will understand the book as you read it; it is not a deliberate attempt to
show the pedantry of the author and make such a lexical gap between the reader
and the author that even an Advanced Learners’ Dictionary cannot bridge it!
Haribakth has done a good job in the terms of the language too.
On the substantial level, the
readers who are well-learned about Gita, might have read Bhaktivendanta as well
as others like Vinova Bhave and Paramhansa Yogananda etc. Haribakth has tried
to do a different kind of interpretation of the Gita which is peculiar. He has
made surprising analogies and assumptions which might irk you only until you
read them and understand the author’s logic. Alok Mishra has also pointed out
some of the comparisons and allusions which Haribakth has made in his book and
they almost go ahead to look anomalies… nevertheless, new interpretations in
the Gita are always welcomed by the people who love it!
Another major attraction of the
book is on the part of the co-author, the daughter of Haribakth – Vaishnavi.
She has taken the task of drawing illustrations for the second part of the book
and conveying the messages of the Gita through a rather visual medium. When
asked who are the target audience of her drawings, she told that visual mode is
rather productive and hence, her target audience are the readers of every age
group. Through the drawings, you can easily apprehend even the most-debated
issues of the Gita such as Yoga, Karma, devotion and many others.
As the conclusion, the team Book
Reviews Web recommends the book 19th Akshauhini: algorithm of the
Gita as a must read for those who love spiritual books as well as for those too
who want to understand the philosophy of the Gita. It’s most certainly the book
which will help the young readers as well as the most learned readers to go
through an all new interpretation of the widely popular scripture Gita. You can
