This work harmonizes spirituality and philosophy through Arnolds elegant and accessible verse, offering readers a profound exploration of duty (dharma), righteousness, and the interplay between the material and spiritual realms. Set against the backdrop of the epic Mahabharata, Arnold elucidates the timeless teachings of Krishna to Arjuna, presenting profound existential questions with clarity and depth, while maintaining the authentic essence of the original text. His literary style is both poetic and reverent, making complex ideas digestible for a Western audience, thus contextualizing Eastern philosophy within Victorian sensibilities. Edwin Arnold (1832-1904) was a British poet and novelist whose deep engagement with Eastern thought profoundly shaped his literary output. His travels in India and his fascination with its spiritual traditions inspired him to bring the wisdom of the East to Western audiences. Arnolds background as a scholar and his role as a journalist allowed him to blend descriptive narrative with philosophical insight, reflecting a life-long pursuit of understanding the universal truths found in diverse cultures. This remarkable translation is highly recommended for readers seeking a bridge between Eastern spirituality and Western thought. "The Song Celestial" not only serves as an introduction to the Bhagavad-Gita but also encourages a reflective engagement with its themes, making it an essential read for anyone interested in philosophy, spirituality, or literature.</p>...1525204The Song Celestial or Bhagavad-Gita4545https://www.gandhi.com.mx/cleopatra-77/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/674888/6b8f8df9-fd34-4e37-b573-187b732d547b.jpg?v=638444677885130000InStockMXN99999DIEbook20228596547400141_W3siaWQiOiJjODZjNGQ5MS1hMGI4LTQ4MzAtOGIwMS1hMmIzNzc1MTMzOTciLCJsaXN0UHJpY2UiOjQ1LCJkaXNjb3VudCI6MCwic2VsbGluZ1ByaWNlIjo0NSwiaW5jbHVkZXNUYXgiOnRydWUsInByaWNlVHlwZSI6Ildob2xlc2FsZSIsImN1cnJlbmN5IjoiTVhOIiwiZnJvbSI6IjIwMjUtMDEtMjdUMTQ6MDA6MDBaIiwicmVnaW9uIjoiTVgiLCJpc1ByZW9yZGVyIjpmYWxzZX1d8596547400141_<p>This work is set in the Ptolemaic era of ancient Egyptian history and focuses on the survival of a dynasty bloodline guarded by the Priesthood of Isis. The Priesthood charges the main character Harmachis to defeat the suspected impostor Cleopatra, drive out the Romans, and restore Egypt to its golden era. Haggards portrayal of Cleopatra is incredible and reveals her wit, betrayal, and overwhelming presence. All the characters in this work are mixtures of good and evil and evoke pity and contempt.</p>...(*_*)8596547400141_<p>In "The Song Celestial or Bhagavad-Gita," Edwin Arnold masterfully translates and adapts the ancient Hindu scripture, the Bhagavad-Gita, into a lyrical English poem.
