Astavakra Gita/Song Of Self-realisation (LATEST EDITION)

Very depth knowledge of Advaita. I bow down to sage Ashtavakra.

Great spiritual book. Must read everybody.

The book is in perfect condition. Very happy with the product & ready to enhance my knowledge about the core teachings of Upanishads 🙏🏻

This is a very good book written in a very engaging manner. The sanskrit slokhas have been elaborately discussed in easy language for the readers to understand.

You need to read this book multiple times to understand (depending on your grasping capacity) Once you understood the essence (even partially) then you don't need a Guru/God/Scriptures in your life.

it is fantasstaic

The book is a must read for a spiritual seeker. It tells that we all are souls, not body or mind. Our ego always tells we are doer, but soul can never be a doer. when we are walking, reading or eating. It all heppens due to mode of material nature. Soul is not doer or enjoyer. soul is just a witness. Sorrow, happiness happen in the mind. Bliss happens in pure conciuosness. It is around 500 pages, only rs285. English translation is good by the aurthor.

A beautifully written book with poetic language and a bombastic style, but easy to understand with a detailed explanation for every verse. Best of all four Ashtavakra Gitas I have read by different authors. What the buyer/reader should remember is it is not for a basic level Vedanta student , not even middle. Almost at the top of the ladder students , the very serious seekers who are at the blink of realising the universal self are the most appropriate readers for this book. Ashtavakra and Swami Chinmayananda also warn the lower level students not to follow that book as misunderstanding the verses or instructions given by the sage will cause chaos and misery to the student. Armed with this knowledge , one should buy , read, enjoy , abide by the rules and be liberated once and for all, with the great Maharshi's grace.

Like to learn our culture

Great

Very nice book

This book has been with me for a while but never got around reading it. But after the Bhagavad Gita and the first Upanishad and teachings of Kapila Muni I ventured into reading this Gita and I must say this is one of the most impactful books I have ever read. The essence of non-duality is so direct and hard hitting that it sets one thinking that how could such a brilliant exposition on non-duality be thought so many thousands of years back. Anyone who is interested in Advaita and non-duality will thoroughly enjoy this book and, hopefully, will give direction to live in the current world in a more meaningful way. The ability of Ashtavakra and Janaka to converse with such distilled thinking is truly wonderful. Of course it can be argued that there is a lot of repetition of the same message; but for me it is a reinforcement of that One Thing with many examples and parallels.

Every sloka in this Gita resonated. Unreservedly recommended where an explanation of the fullest implications of complete Realisation is needed. Ashtavakra’s descriptions may lack the earnestness of Gaudapada, but more than make up for that by his authenticity.
