English translation with original Sanskrit and transliteration. Annotations based on the commentaries of Saṅkara, Rāmānuja, and Madhva ācāryas.

It is the nature and beauty of the Sanskrit language that it invites multiple interpretations. Dr. Shukavak's solution to this problem has been to utilize a system of annotation in the form of footnotes, which allows him to make a particular translation and then to show an alternative translation or interpretation when it is appropriate. The system of annotation utilizes the commentaries of three classical interpreters of Bhagavad Gītā Śaṅkara, Rāmānuja and Madhva ācāryas.

If you only read one book of Hindu scripture, let that be Bhagavad Gītā. Even though it can be read in just a few sessions, it captures the very essence of Hindu thought.
