Gita, the spiritual heartbeat of India, has been making the lives of billions blessed for thousands of years.

In Arohan: Ascent with Gita, Samarpan explains how the timeless wisdom of the most popular spiritual text of India is as relevant and relatable in the present times as it was when it was first delivered many millennia ago.

The book unfolds as a dialogue between a monk and a businessman who meet by chance on the banks of Narmada at Omkareshwar, and then set out for a walk on the parikrama path daily for a few days. Their conversation illuminates the truths of Gita - life, death, rebirth, atman, dharma, renunciation, our duties towards ourselves and our fellow human beings, how to acquire integrity and purpose in life, steps to devotion and self-realization, etc. - that lie at the core of Hindu philosophy. Mirroring Sri Krishna and Arjuna on the battlefield, the monk dispels the personal, professional, intellectual and spiritual darkness that cloud the businessman's mind.

The book serves as a precious and timely guide for modern readers seeking to navigate the dark and choppy waters of life with light and clarity.
