Review Quotes:
"His writings, especially Savitri and Essays on the Gita, reflect the Gita's themes of selfless action, divine will, and spiritual struggle. By reinterpreting the Gita's message as a call for spiritual activism, Aurobindo created a modern path for seekers, extending the text's relevance to contemporary spiritual and social transformation."

"In fact, I will argue that one of Sri Aurobindo's most original and significant insights into the Gītā is his recognition that the concept of vijñāna - when properly understood - is the hermeneutic key to understanding the Gītā's thought-structure as a whole."

"Essays on the Gita by Sri Aurobindo contemplate and deliberate upon the profound teachings of the Bhagavad Gita, a seminal philosophical text in Hinduism. In the essay titled 'The Divine Teacher, ' Aurobindo portrays Krishna as the supreme guide who imparts timeless wisdom and spiritual knowledge."
