The Bhagavad Gita

Eknath Easwaran (translation)

On a battlefield, Arjuna despairs; Krishna answers with a complete guide to living — act from duty, release attachment to outcomes, and steady the mind on the Self.

Easwaran's accessible translation and commentary on the Hindu scripture in which Krishna counsels the warrior Arjuna on duty, action without attachment to results, and the paths of knowledge, devotion, and selfless work.
