Bhagavad Gita and other Gitas of Indian literature

The Bhagavad Gita has a special place in the invaluable heritage of Indian culture and philosophy. This divine text located in the Bhishma Parva of the Mahabharata is not only a religious text, but also a unique guide to the art of living. In this, through the dialogue between Arjuna and Lord Krishna, a unique confluence of karma, knowledge, devotion and religion is found.
The Bhagavad Gita is called the "essence of the Upanishads" and the "heart of Indian philosophy". It guides not only religious, but also philosophical, ethical and practical life.

In the tradition of Indian literature, inspired by the Bhagavad Gita, many other saints and philosophers also presented their thoughts in the form of "Gita". These texts are collectively called other Gitas. They contain various perspectives related to life, religion, knowledge, devotion and liberation.
