Both youths and adults should take this wonderful opportunity to
learn the most profound and soul-stirring spiritual truths revealed
by God Himself. The message of the Gita is the solution for the
problems of our daily life. Sri Swami Sivanandaji said; “The world
is under a great debt of gratitude to Sri Vyasa who has presented this
Celestial Song to humanity for their daily conduct in life, spiritual
uplift and Self-realization”. Vivekachoodamani is a gem jewel of
discrimination, teaching us how to live in this world and off this world.
