"Gurus like Sri Adi Shankara, Sri Ramanuja, Sri Aurobindo...and many other such great men have expounded the Gita's philosophy you know?" Barath sir said looking keenly at both of us. "Ah, here goes our sir again" I sighed hearing that. "Gita, Vedanta, blah blah blah..Boy, what at all does the darned book say that it has impressed so many? And come on man, what is there to say about life? The usual & improbable 'Pray to God, be good, do good.." "But you know what Venki?" sir continued, "I want a youngster like you to prepare a write-up on it...as you understand it. You know...it's then it will connect to all the people like you out there. I really wish you do it for me." "What?" my eyes widened in disbelief, "Me? A write-up on the BHAGAVAD GITA? Whoa! Come on sir, you should be kidding." Saying that I turned & looked at Sandy who was seated near me. "Imagine..you writing a commentary on the Gita with your half-baked English...'Do thy duty. But do away with the results, mind it', Ha ha.." Sandy guffawed. *** 'Butterflies, Parottas & the Bhagavad Gita' is a book that expounds the philosophy of the Gita interspersing it with the story of two flawed, unlikely men - Venki & Sandy. The two guys, despite being totally disinterested and despite trying their best to flee from it, are pushed by life circumstances to come to terms with the Gita's wisdom. And they eventually do it too - their half-baked English and other failings notwithstanding. But what they couldn't have known - the wisdom of the ancient scripture would also end up transforming them radically and irrevocably in the process, much beyond what they could have ever imagined. Welcome to an illuminating, heartwarming and quirky journey through the wisdom of the Bhagavad Gita - a journey that will change the way you look at life in the world forever.
