=== Aims and Objectives of the American Gita Society ====
AMERICAN GITA SOCIETY
gitaprasad@aol.com
The American Gita Society (AGS) was formed in 1988, to
enlighten and serve the humanity through the medium of
the Gita. It is a registered, non-profit, tax-exempt,
religious institution in the United States of America
and the State of California.
Its Aims and Objectives are:
1. To publish the Gita in English and other languages
and distribute it at a very nominal subsidized cost, and
put Gitas free of charge in libraries, hotels, and
motels all over the world, starting from India and the
USA, similar to what the American Bible Society does for
the Bible all over the world.
2. To Spread the basic Non-sectarian Universal
Teachings of Shrimad Bhagavad-Gita and other Vedic
scriptures in an easy to understand language for the
common people by forming local chapters of the Society
such as "The Gita Society International."
3. To provide inspiration, help, and guidance in
establishing Gita Study and Discussion (Satsang) Groups
in the neighborhoods, and provide free Gita
correspondence course to the youth, students, busy
executives and all other interested persons.
4. To provide cooperation and financial support to
persons and non-profit organizations engaged in the
study and propagation of the Vedic knowledge by
arranging lectures, seminars, and short courses on
meditation, yoga, and metaphysical sciences.
5. To break the barriers between faiths, and establish
unity of races, religions, castes, and creeds through
the immortal Non-sectarian teachings of the Vedas,
Upanishads, Gita, Ramayana, as well as other major world
scriptures such as the Dhammapada, the Bible, and the
Koran.
