Dear friends,

 

I generally like Sri Tatachar's views. I should say - a good modernization
of our ancient rishis' views.

 

However the following " ESPECIALLY HERE STAY AWAY FROM OUR ACHARYAS
BHASHYAMS" seems to devalue the views of great acharyas. This is not so
considerate comment on our great ancient acharyas such as Samkara, Ramanuja
and Madhva, who have toiled hard to summarize the whole meaning of
Bhagawadgita in this verse. Neither is this an easy verse, which is better
interpreted using a modern view, if one were to pay attention to the whole
text of Bhagawadgita.

 

I think one should understand our traditional bhasyas on this verse "sarva
dharman parityajya". Yes it is complicated and probably the person asking
this question is not so interested in deep "analysis and hair splitting
views on this verse". However, deep ideas are hidden in this verse and a
good understanding is necessary for any deep student of "hindu philosophy".
Further the diametrically opposite views, which have even crept into modern
books on Bhagawadgita is something one should know deeply.

 

For more details get this book from amazon.com or bizrate.com
