Summary: Gita on the Green is Gold
Review: I have read and loved many of Steve Rosen's books. GITA ON THE GREEN is a welcome and worthy addition to my collection of his books. I had previously read the Bhagavad Gita, but had little knowledge about golf, and hadn't yet read The Legend of Bagger Vance.

The reader will benefit most by reading Bhagavad Gita As It Is, The Legend of Bagger Vance, and Gita on the Green together, or in quick succession. With both simplicity and thoroughness, Rosen ties together and explains this ancient and eternal tradition expressed in the Bhagavad-Gita and how it is explained in the new context of golf for the modern reader in Bagger Vance.

Now, for it all to come full circle, I await the Sanskrit translation of Gita on the Green!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Another Krishna Consciousness interpretation
Review: If you want to know what the Bhagavad Gita is about and are too lazy to actually read it, this is the next best thing. Great review of jnana, karma and bhakti (knowledge, action and devotion) concepts.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Not much about the movie but great treatise on the Gita

Summary: Another Krishna Consciousness interpretation
Review: The Legend of Bagger Vance is one of my favorite books and I have spent a fair amount of time studying the Gita including reading portions of it in Sanskrit. I picked up Gita on the Green with high expectations but was quickly disappointed when I realized that it was written from the Krishna Consciousness perspective (A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada's Bhagavad Gita As It Is).
I would recommend the Stoler-Miller translation of the Gita.

Summary: Not too much about Bagger Vance but great bk on the Gita
Review: This book gives a relaxed and informative treatment of the essential doctrine of the Bhagavad Gita. If you're too lazy to read the Penguin Classic translation of the Bhagavad Gita, get this. Knowledge is the first step to enlightenment!
