Raghavendratirtha's (Author), H.H
Shri.Satyadhyanathirtha's (Author).
This compilation of the Geeta is based on the work of
one of the most celebrated pontiffs in the Madhva line of disciples, the
much-acclaimed intellectual and litterateur of a high order, Shri
Raghavendratirtha, the seventeenth century mystic-saint. All matters discussed
on the Geeta appear in the present book in the same literary style in which
Shri Raghavendratirtha has presented them in his Geetavivriti, also called The
Geetartha Sara Sangraha.
The other book Geeta Pratipadartha Chandrika which has
been included here is the simple rendering of the Geeta meaning by Shri
Satyadhyanatirtha (first half of the twentieth century), an indefatigable soul
committed to the uplift of Vaidika Dharma in general and Tattvavada in
particular in the prevalent materialistic atmosphere blowing through the
country during his time.
Both these writings, while continuing the strictly
adhered to tradition of the Madhva School of not deviating from their
preceptor’s teachings, further simplify and elaborate Shri Madhva’s teachings
to meet the needs of the contemporary and present day seeker.
Compiler and Presenter
Shri
Krishna Anantrao Harnahalli decided to spend his time after retirement in
service of his gurus Shri Madhvacharya and Shri Raghavendratirtha, whom he
holds in very high esteem. He chose the path of writing as the means to spread
the messages of his Gurus.
However,
having had no opportunity to engage in serious study of their highly scholarly
philosophical works, he took recourse to translating accredited works of
well-known philosophical writers. In pursuance of this aim he has so far translated
one book from English to Hindi, three books from Kannada to Hindi and one book
from Sanskrit/Kannada into Hindi. The present book is his sixth work and is a
rendering in English of one of his earlier translations.
