What is Bhagavad Gita Path?

The Gita, Krishna’s teaching to Arjuna on the battlefield of Kurukshetra, is chanted as a prayer as well as studied. A full parayanam is traditionally done for the peace of the departed (especially during the 13 days after death and at shraddhas) and on Gita Jayanti (Margashirsha Shukla Ekadashi).

Families also book a single chapter — the 12th (Bhakti Yoga) or the 15th (Purushottama Yoga) — for a shorter weekly recitation.
