Sir,
 
I have heard many stupid things in my life and I have also uttered some of the most stupid things.
But what you have heard with respect to Bhagavad Gita book and Gitopadesham pictures  tops
them all. You have the right thinking on Gita and whoever gave you that advice is insane. There
is no rationale for that sugegstion, other than inborn stupidity. Unfortunately that person is
not alone by any means. No wonder, Will Durant observed-"she (India) produced and forgot Gita".
 
Even the most Gita-abiding people I know are stuck in Chapter 1 of Gita, at worst and
at best they have utterly complicated the Charama Shlokam. Geetaashaastram and
Geetaachaarya is all we need. Rest are details, largely unnecessary at best and
misleading at worst!

Subject: [SriRangaSri] Question about Gitopadesam picture


Dear Srirangasri members,
Someone told us that we should not keep Gitopadesam picture in our
house(We have one for many years); as well as that we are not
supposed to even have Bhagavad Gita book in the house.
Can anyone confirm if this is correct and if so the rationale behind
it. As far as I am concernced the picture of Gitopadesam represents
the essense of vedas; a constant reminder that Sri krishna
(Supreme) is the charioteer and we just do as he wishes.
I will be grateful for your enlightment on this.
Sincerely,
S. Vijayakumar
