Read Aloud Gita Pocketbook
關於本電子書
How may we read the Gita? It's verses are written in a meter known as Anushtup Chhanda consisting of 32 syllables each. The traditional way to recite is to pause after 8 syllables. However the commonly available editions of the Bhagavad Gita do not give any such pause. This is a book that lists all 700 verses of the Gita in Sanskrit using Devanagari script with pause at 8 syllables i.e. at each quarter.
The split of the verses is done using Grammar rules of Sandhi as given in the Ashtadhyayi of Panini, a timeless masterpiece on language, word formation and syntax. The correct method to read the Visarga and the Avagraha is clearly explained. Thus it fulfils a basic academic need of individuals, schools or colleges using the Bhagavad Gita in any manner. Most institutes imparting Sanskrit teaching also use the Gita and this book is an apt textbook for the same.
Verse as chanted, pausing at each pada quarter verse
यत्र योगेश्वरᳲ कृष्णः , यत्र पार्थो धनुर्धरः ।
तत्र श्रीर् विजयो भूतिः , ध्रुवा नीतिर् मतिर् मम ॥ 18.78
Proper recitation of the Bhagavad Gita has immense power to enliven any atmosphere and make oneself soaked in devotion to the Divine. It is a highly healing experience in itself.
