Outstanding!
“There is nothing archaic about this version of the Bhagawad-Gita. KEV Nair has been at it for more than ten years. Extensive research on the content, language used in translations and the interpretations gave shape to this version... The words used are simple so that everybody can understand the contents... It is easy on the reader and does not put you off... For the message to be clear while making the language as simple as possible, Nair slogged for years, rewriting and discarding many versions... Years of hard work... LAUDABLE EFFORT..."

Invaluable!
“An English translation of the Gita which will make it more accessible to the reader... A product of 10 years of the professor’s intense research... All the 700 verses have a consistent metrical scheme. As you read them, the lines develop a swing of their own... Kev Nair... has made every effort to make his Gita suited for reading aloud, to be enjoyed to the fullest... faithful to the original... On the whole, the translation does not force you to see the Gita from a particular angle and then make you think that the partial picture is the complete picture..."

Prof. Kev Nair
