Srimad Bhagavad Gita: Beginners' Chanting Book

About this ebook
The purpose of this transliteration is to help people become familiar with the pronunciation and chanting style of the Satyachetana Movement. For the sake of simplifying the pronunciation, Sanskrit grammar rules were temporarily left aside—-not out of disrespect, but rather to enable a wider group to participate in chanting this sacred scripture.
Swami Sri Atmananda
Swami Sri Atmananda is the founder of the Satyachetana International Spiritual Movement. Born in Orissa, India, his inner pull toward spirituality began during childhood and intensified as he progressed through higher education and university. The Bhagavad Gita was his constant companion and guide, and through intense contemplation and practice of Gita's principles he achieved profound spiritual attainment. He also served at the feet of many enlightened masters, perhaps most notably His Holiness Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, and traveled the length and breadth of India on his spiritual quest. That journey culminated in Pondicherry, where he surrendered to the Divine Mother. She guided him to a cave in the holy mountain Arunachala where he attained the culmination of his sadhana in 1993. After remaining in the state of pure nirvikalpa samadhi for several days, he regained his awareness and returned to the world carrying the aham brahmosmi ("I am the Brahman") unity consciousness that enables the yogi to consciously carry the guru shakti. Swamiji's spiritual work as a master began in 1993. In response to his call for the manifestation of Truth on earth, several non-profit organizations were formed: Divine Mission, established in 1996, serves to guide awakened seekers to the state of highest spiritual realization, while Satyachetana International (SCI), founded in 2001, supports the overall expansion of the Movement and aims to manifest through life the highest truth that has been realized at the individual level. University of Spiritual Research (USR) was founded in 2004 to support and provide spiritual education. In 2017, in Bhubaneswar, Odisha, Swamiji organized the first Chaturveda Rajasuya Yajna in Kali Yuga, after a gap of 5117 years. At present, Swamiji is kept busy completing his commentary on the Vedas; overseeing the Vedavidya Gurukulam; guiding brahmins in performing the daily Chaturveda Brahmakunda Yajna; and managing a major project, The Dictionary of Scriptures, through the Satyachetana Educational Trust and its Veda Research Institute, all located in Tiruvannamalai, Tamil Nadu, India. Swamiji's primary residence is Satyachetana Ashram at the foot of Arunachala in Tiruvannamalai. More information about Swamiji and his work and sadhana process are available at Swamiji's personal website and Satyachetana Publications, both listed below.

Whenever the light of natural law fades away
and there is an ascendancy of darkness,
during those periods I create Myself.
For the protection of the virtuous,
to destroy evil and to reestablish dharma,
I come again and again.
