Look inside

A painting across every spread.

Every chapter opens on a painting that runs edge to edge, and gold runs through the pages in between. There is no clip art, and no painting appears twice.

The object

Made like the world's finest art books.

Most Gitas are made to be affordable. This one is made to be looked at. It is the book you would expect from a museum, printed for the most important text we have.

  1. 01

    Size

    Oversized square pages, 10 × 10 inches, so every painting has room to breathe.

  2. 02

    Print

    Heavy matte paper, printed edge to edge, with the paintings running across the gutter.

  3. 03

    Binding

    Sewn rather than glued, so it lies open flat on the table and holds up to years of turning.

  4. 04

    Text

    All 700 shlokas in large Devanagari, with the pronunciation and a new English translation that follows no single sect.

  5. 05

    Cover

    A matte printed hardcover, lettered in gold foil.

Page one

Your words, in gold, on the first page.

Our heritage

The Gita has always been handed down.

  1. Kurukshetra

    On the morning of the war, Krishna speaks and Arjuna listens.

  2. Hastinapur

    Sanjaya, granted the sight to see the field from afar, tells it to the blind king.

  3. The Mahabharata

    Vyasa sets it into the epic. Tradition says Ganesha wrote it down as he spoke.

  4. Centuries of hands

    It travels by memory from teacher to student, and on palm leaf and birch bark, copied one line at a time.

  5. Your family

    This edition is made to be the next link in that chain.

It has passed from hand to hand for thousands of years. Now it is your family's turn.

A note from the founder

My mother has read the same worn Gita for thirty years. I wanted to make her one that looked the way those words feel, one she would keep in the mandir and one day pass to my children. That is the book we made. If anything about your order isn't right, message me on WhatsApp and I will fix it myself.

— founder, House of Vyasa
