SUMMARY:Webinar on "Exploring the Bhagavad Gita: Philosophy, Structure, and Meaning" by Ithamar Theodor
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: The Bhagavad Gita is a unique literary creation but deciphering i
 ts meaning and philosophy is not easy or straightforward. This careful stud
 y of the Bhagavad Gita approaches the ancient text with a modern mind and o
 ffers a unifying structure of universal relevance. Combining the philosophi
 cal-theoretical with the ethical-practical, Ithamar Theodor locates his stu
 dy within comparative theology and identifies the various layers of meaning
 . The Bhagavad Gita's full text is presented in a new translation, divided 
 into sections, and accompanied by an in-depth commentary. This book makes t
 he Bhagavad Gita accessible to a wide variety of readers, helping to make s
 ense of this tremendous spiritual classic, which is one of the most importa
 nt texts of religious Hinduism.\n Speaker bio: Ithamar Theodor is Associate
  Professor of Hindu studies at Zefat Academic College, Safed, Israel, a gra
 duate of the Theology Faculty, University of Oxford, and a Life Member of C
 lare Hall, University of Cambridge. His publications include Exploring the 
 Bhagavad Gıta: Philosophy, Structure, and Meaning (2010), Brahman and Dao: 
 Comparative Studies in Indian and Chinese Philosophy and Religion (2014), T

 a Purana (2016), Dharma and Halacha: Comparative Studies in Hindu and Jewis
