Amazon.com description: Product Description: The Bhagavad Gita is one of India's most treasured of holy books. The present volume concerns itself with ontology. In this book the Gita's ontology is deeply probed and the difficult task of its careful exegesis is accomplished by the contributors to the volume who know the Sanskrit language very well. This book is an outstanding accomplishment in the study of this remarkable text. In this first of a series of volumes for Bhagavad Gita Studies, the editors have enlisted several leading scholars in the field of Indic Studies. The first volume offers readers the opportunity to explore with the authors a most important theological and philosophical notion - ontology. Ontology concerns a discourse on God, the world, and the soul. Moreover, critical to ontology is how these three interact. This volume presents views on the ontology of the Bhagavad Gita, arguably India's most treasured and widely read holy book. The essays encompass two areas. First, some scholars explore what certain famed teachers of the Vedanta Tradition have concluded on Gita ontology. Second, some scholars present their own views concerning the ontology of the Gita. Readers will no doubt benefit from the essays herein assembled, and Bhagavad Gita studies furthered by the breadth of expertise found in this volume.
