Gita Jayanti, or the appearance date of the Bhagavad Gita, is celebrated by all the admirers and lovers of this most sacred scripture on the eleventh day of the bright half of the month of Margaseersha (December-January). It was on this day that Sanjaya narrated to King Dhritarashtra the dialogue between Sri Krishna and Arjuna, and thus made the glorious teachings of the Gita available for all time.
Gita Jayanti marks one of the greatest days in the history of mankind. Over five thousand years ago on that day a dazzling flash of brilliant light lit up the firmament of human civilization. That flash, that marvellous spiritual effulgence, was the message of the Bhagavad Gita, given by Krishna on the battlefield of Kurukshetra. Unlike ordinary flashes of light which die away after a split-second, this brilliant flash of that memorable day has continued to shine through the centuries, and even now illumines the path of humanity on its onward march to perfection. Please let me know if you ahve read it. I intend to moderate a discussion on the preachings on Bhagavad Gita here.
