On the Bhagavad Gita...

"...Such a wonderful presentation just in one book. Once someone asked Srila Prabhupada that “how can we accept that Bhagavad Gita was spoken by Krishna Himself?” Prabhupada’s answer was “doesn’t matter whether Krishna spoke or not. Show me one book that has this kind of information and wisdom. Show me one book in this world that contains such profound spiritual wisdom. Everything has been spoken in one book.”

Whether Krishna spoke or not is not important. If you don’t want to accept it, doesn’t matter. If you don’t want to accept that Krishna spoke 5,000 years ago doesn’t matter. The question is ‘does this book contain all the information that are going to change our life for a better one?’ This is going to lead us to the best possible way that one can lead his life, with the perfect understanding".
