Walk the Gita, one day at a time
The Bhagavad Gita is 700 verses across 18 chapters — a conversation on the battlefield of Kurukshetra between Arjuna and Krishna, on duty, the soul, action, devotion, and liberation. To make it walkable, I broke it into 35 daily contemplations of roughly 20 verses each. For every day there is a podcast-style audio episode to listen along with, and the verses laid out in Sanskrit, transliteration, and meaning — read at your own pace.
