Well you have to know the Gita before you answer. You can say the Gita is the word of God, or the laws of nature that we must follow. If you want to be happy, the Gita gives you guidelines on how to be happy in all circumstances. In simple words, the Gita is like a manual that teaches us how to make our life successful and how to get the best out of life. It also explains how to and how not to behave under different circumstances. The Gita is very clear on what to eat and what not to eat, what kind of company you should keep and what kind of decisions you should make. The Gita is a complete guide for your future. All your needs are contained in the Gita, because it is God's words.

-- Swami Radhanandaji

Quotes

“The guru must teach me and lead me into light, make me a link in that chain of which he himself is a link. The man in the street cannot claim to be a guru. The guru must be a man who has known, has actually realized the divine truth, has perceived himself as the spirit. A mere talker cannot be the guru.” – Swami Vivekananda
