Oppenheimer and the Gita (2014)
Bhagavad Gita is a deep scripture about yogic teachings.<p>The premise of the story is a war between a family fighting for dominance.<p>Arjuna is one of the greatest archer at the time and he was fighting against one side of his family.<p>Both side sought out Lord Krishna for help for their cause. Lord Krishna gave each a choice - His army or Him as a guide.<p>Arjuna chose Him as a guide and majority of the book is about the dialog between them.<p>The scripture is deeply allegorical and metaphorical. Bayasa, the author, wrote it as a guide to live one&#x27;s life (Self-Realization).<p>The war is actually talking about the &quot;war&quot; every human being is fighting inside themselves. The &quot;good&quot; versus the &quot;bad&quot; or virtues versus vices. That&#x27;s the whole reason why we suffer. It&#x27;s all an inner journey :)<p>I&#x27;d highly recommend reading The Autobiography of a Yogi by Paramhansa Yogananda as his Master and other great saints explain more about it than I can.
