AN ATHEIST GETS THE GITA (Paperback)

 ‘Will this make us happy?’ This question
troubles 25-year-old IIM graduate Anveshak Jigyanshu, an investment banker in
Singapore, as he meets his two-decade senior Charan Saket. Their conversation
reminds the reader of the dialogue between Arjuna and Krishna. Anveshak, a
self-proclaimed atheist, is mesmerized by the compelling arguments put forth
by Charan as they both explore the world of science and its limitations, what
proof means, the dilemma of ethics and finally, what real and everlasting
happiness is. In a way, Charan explains the essence of the Bhagavad Gita.
Slowly turning from a disbeliever to one who accepts logic, Anveshak
discovers the key to his question. In a tightly gripping narrative, the
authors gently persuade the reader to relook and understand the essence of
the Bhagavad Gita in the modern world. Anveshak represents the modern
intellectual who seeks happiness but does not want to follow anything
blindly. This book will change the way one looks at happiness.”
