THE BHAGAVAD-GITATRANSLATION AND COMMENTARIESIN ENGLISH ACCORDING TOSRI MADHWACHARYA'S BHASHYABYS. SUBBA RAU, M.A.,Translator of the Purna-Pragna Darsana.With Bhagavad Gita moola slokas and Gita Vivrutti of Shri Raghevendra SwamiPublished: 2025[ Originally published in Madras, 1906 ]SRIMAN MADHWACHARYA has written two works on the Bhagavad-Gita, viz, the Gita-Bhashya and the Gita-Tatparya. The Bhashya is the first work he wrote. It was intended to be a solace to his preceptor Achyuta Preksha, when he first set out on a pilgrimage to the Ganges. The Tatparya was evidently written much later in his life. It is interesting to note that the very first work is a complete index to his great mind, vast powers of criticism and noble character. Wherever he differs, he interprets the word, phrase or sentence, quotes authorities in support of them, and leaves the rest to be supplied by a comparative study with the earlier commentaries. Moreover the Bhashya was intended to set the perceptor a-thinking, whom the pupil had to convert in the first instance.The book now offered to the public is not directly a translation of Acharya's works; but it closely follows the text and Sri Raghavendra Swami's excellent exposition, which condenses the information of both the Bhashya and the Tatparya. So when a connected view is gained with the help of the present work, the study of the advanced discussions in the Bhashya and the Tatparya may be pursued with ease and interest. Read more
