The Gita and the Battle for Selfhood

This book explores the nature of the self through a variety of perspectives: Arjuna's existential crisis in the Bhagavad Gita, the philosophy of Ramanuja, the insights of Mircea Eliade, the implications of contemporary neuroscience, and a compelling clinical vignette. Arjuna's moment of doubt and despair serves as the central focal point through which we explore the timeless human struggle to discover, understand, and embody our true selves.
