The 5-minute Gita is your new guide to life. It powerfully distils the timeless wisdom of the East for a world with less time. -- Jay Shetty, bestselling author and podcaster In just five minutes, the Gita comes alive - offering warm guidance that is both deeply practical and universally accessible. -- Vex King, bestselling author of 'Good Vibes, Good Life' This version may take only five minutes per chapter to read, but its effects, I am sure, will last a lifetime. Do read this book. -- Amish Tripathi, bestselling author and broadcaster Nitesh has preserved the voice of Krishna while translating Krishna's message into a language our modern minds - and hearts - can understand and easily apply. -- Gauranga Das, spiritual teacher and author The narrative style allows us to sit beside Arjuna, to eavesdrop on that sacred conversation, and to ask, like Arjuna did: What should I do?' -- Devi Chitralekha, spiritual teacher What I love about The 5-minute Gita is its simplicity and emphasis that spirituality is not an escape - it is engagement. -- Maithili Thakur, singer and India's cultural ambassador Want to understand the Bhagavad Gita but can't find the time? The 5-minute Gita makes it easy - no more excuses! In just five minutes a day, over 18 days, you can absorb the wisdom of all 18 chapters. What are you waiting for?! This is the spiritual treasure for our times. -- Radhika Das, kirtan artist and Bhakti-yoga teacherMore details
