The dialogues between Krishna and Arjuna are a rare ancient treasure recorded in the name of Bhagavat Gita for understanding of who we are and our purpose to be here. However, the foreign or Christian or colonial translations of it has seriously suffered due to poor standard of translations and intentionally simplistic paraphrases. In this talk, Kavindra Rishi introduces his new book- “The Bhagavad Gita Comes Alive” that is brought into life after a decade of deep understanding, where the author has removed the mistranslated words and reintroduces accurate Sanskrit terms to remain true to the original meaning. Here, he refers this to be a decolonizing step and builds up concepts orderly and sequentially that reflects in the glossary section. Thus, this etymological and linguistic research is beneficial not only for spiritual seekers and revitalizing Dharma but also every English-speaking Hindus around the globe.
