D eDication

To Çréla Prabhupäda, who desired that the

message of Bhagavad-gétä be spread to all people

of the world. As Lord Caitanya Mahäprabhu

desired,

yäre dekha, täre kaha ‘kåñëa’-upadeça

ämära äjïäya guru haïä tära’ ei deça

“Instruct everyone to follow the orders of Lord

Çré Kåñëa as they are given in Bhagavad-gétä

and Çrémad-Bhägavatam. In this way become a

spiritual master and try to liberate everyone in

this land.” ( Cc. Madhya 7.128)

a cknowleDgements

The main inspirations for this book were my eternal spiritual master,

His Divine Grace A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupäda, and the holy

names that he kindly gave me: Hare Kåñëa, Hare Kåñëa, Kåñëa Kåñëa, Hare

Hare/ Hare Räma, Hare Räma, Räma Räma, Hare Hare. Srila Prabhupäda

desired to have a picture for each verse of the Bhagavad-gétä, and we

hope this book will help fulfill his cherished desire.

I am eternally grateful to Bhurijana prabhu for inspiring me to

study Bhagavad-gétä and to teach it to others through his VIHE. I am

very grateful to Çatadhäma Däsé, the artist who painstakingly drew the

pictures, despite hot summer Våndävana weather, ill health, and ever

changing residences with austere conditions. May Lord Kåñëa bless her

in her advancement in spiritual life. Kürma Rüpa Däsa did the design

and layout. Yaçodämayi Devé helped design the book, giving many

long hours of her time. Anurädhä däsé painted the pictures of Çréla

Prabhupäda. My son, Govinda Däsa helped with layout of the pictures

and my stepdaughter Vrinda helped with computer art.

During my writing retreats in Mäyäpur, Païcaratna, Saìkalpa, and

Dayaräma prabhus helped with accommodation and prasädam. Çeña

prabhu helped with residence in Våndavana and Mäyäpur.

Special thanks goes to the those who donated for the printing of the

book: Rädhä Jévan Däsa always supports these projects and I especially

appreciate his help. Sarvajïa Kåñëa däsa gives ongoing support for this

and future projects. Thanks go to Çrékaré devé däsé, Räjendranandana,

Pavamäna das, Praçänta devé däsé, Mädhavendra Puré and Lélä Mädhuré,

Tyäga Caitanya Däsa.

Vrajesvaré and Bhägavata däsés made a beautiful musical rendition

of selected verses. Govinda dä s also spent many long hours making an

interactive CD. Bhaktin Elena helped with graphics.
