Description
The Bhagavad Gita, often seen as a sacred text, has been used by Hindutva extremists and political leaders to justify violence, caste-based discrimination, and religious supremacy. Historically, many Hindu scholars and families rejected it, considering it divisive and unethical. Despite this, the Brahminical establishment, with colonial support, positioned it as the ultimate Hindu scripture, enforcing its teachings through the education system.
This book critically examines the Gita’s justification of war, caste hierarchy, and religious dominance. It questions its portrayal of duty-bound killing and the manipulation of the Atma concept to justify violence. By exposing its historical and modern implications, Deadly Bhagavat Gita challenges readers to reconsider its ethical and moral impact.
