The Aṣṭāvakra Gītā, also known as the Aṣṭāvakra Saṃhitā, is a short treatise on Advaita Vedānta, ascribed to the great sage Aṣṭāvakra. Sage Aṣṭāvakra demonstrates a profound knowledge of Brahman that Swami Nityaswarupanand of Ramakrishna Mission has placed before the readers in this book in simple, easy-to-understand English.
The subtle philosophical truths are expounded in the form of a lucid dialogue between the teenage sage Aṣṭāvakra and his royal disciple, King Janaka. To Aṣṭāvakra, self-knowledge through direct mystical intuition is the only goal to be reached and experienced in the dynamic silence of one’s own deepest meditation.
Swami Nityaswarupanand’s English translations, word definitions, commentary, and scholarly introduction have all significantly increased the worth of the original text.
