Synopsis Sri Ramanuja's commentary on the Bhagavad Gita is not so widely known as that of Sri Sankara. It may be due to the fact that Sri Ramanuja came about three centuries after Sri Sankara. To have a comparatively full knowledge of Vedanta, a study of Sri Ramanuja's commentary on the Bhagavad Gita also is essential. In Ramanuja's interpretation of Vedanta, devotion to personal God and His grace are stressed as the exclusive means for release from Samsara or the Cycle of births and deaths. It is for the benefit of such devotees that we have been induced to bring out this publication. The translator of this text is Swami Adidevananda who was the President of Ramakrishna Math at Bangalore. He passed away before this publication of this translation. He has translated some other books of great importance, especially to Vaishnavas. Some of these are-Stotraratna and Yatindramatadeepika.
