Greetings,
This is a personal review of The Bhagavad-geeta.
I found that this translation is simply beautiful because it is beautifully simple.
Nohing better can be said !
I personally find many translations tedious because of complex structure and lack of brief
definations of certain words. It is great for the first timer.
Peace,
