Rhythm of Krishna

The Bhagavad Gita, originally written in Sanskrit, is a 700-verse masterpiece that delves into profound questions about life, purpose, and human existence.

​

Inspired by its eternal wisdom, Sushrut Badhe translated the Gita’s rhythm into poetic English. This modern rendition retains the original essence while making the text accessible to contemporary readers. Recognized by the India Book of Records (December 2014) as India’s first rhyme book based on the Bhagavad Gita, this unique effort bridges ancient wisdom with modern-day relevance.

About the book

Sushrut Badhe’s work draws from renowned sources, including:

  • Sri Aurobindo’s Essays on the Gita

  • The Gita Press Gorakhpur edition

  • Interpretations and commentaries by prominent thinkers across traditions

This comprehensive foundation enabled the Sanskrit verses to be transformed into simple, four-line English quatrains. The original numbering of the verses has been preserved, ensuring authenticity and easy comparison for in-depth study.

Universal Relevance

The Gita’s dialogues address timeless human challenges.

  • Arjuna, the seeker, raises questions reflecting humanity’s doubts and struggles.

  • Krishna’s responses provide clear, patient guidance for navigating life’s complexities.

For modern readers, the verses are grouped thematically at the beginning of each canto, offering a focused approach for those with limited time. Additionally, a glossary of key terms and characters simplifies Sanskrit concepts for newcomers.
