by The term Gita, Sanskrit means,
‘गीता– a song, sacred song or poem, religious doctrines declared in metrical form by an inspired sage’
All of us aware of Srimad Bhagavd Gita.
Though I know some texts( I have written on some of them) which are called Gita, I have recently come across information that there are thirty Gitas!
The rate at which I come to know what I do not know about Hinduism is staggering.
Childishly I have started started writing on Hinduism.
I am certain that I would not even touch the periphery of Hinduism before my death.
Hope and pray that I may attempt to scratch its surface.
I propose writing on these Gitas in detail shortly.
- Uttara Gita Lord Krishna’s second discourse to Arjuna
- Anu Gita – Lord Krishna’s final message to Arjuna
- Uddhava Gita – Krishna’s last discourse to his disciple Uddhava.
- Devi Gita
- Asthavakra Gita
- Avadhoota Gita
- Rama Gita
- Vibhishana Gita
- Hanumad Gita
- Guru Geeta
- Siddha Gita
- Vidya Gita
- Yama Gita
- Ganesha Gita
- Agastya Gita
- Bharata Gita
- Bheeshma Gita
- Bhikshu Gita
- Brahma Gita
