Gita and gospel

"Gita and Gospel" by J. N. Farquhar is a philosophical exploration of the Bhagavad Gita and Christian scripture, where the author investigates how the moral and spiritual lessons in each text can enhance personal faith and ethical behavior. The book begins by presenting the Bhagavad Gita as a piece of world literature celebrated for its philosophical depth and literary merit, and emphasizes the Gita's extensive influence on Indian intellectuals, proposing its importance to Western audiences. Farquhar draws parallels between the Gita and the doctrines of other noteworthy philosophers and faiths, addressing key principles such as obligation, piety, and the quest for wisdom, thereby establishing groundwork for further analysis in the book.
