Stephen Mitchell is widely known for his ability to make ancient masterpieces thrillingly new, to step in where many have tried before and create versions that are definitive for our time. His celebrated version of the Tao Te Ching is the most popular edition in print, and his translations of Jesus, Rilke, Genesis, and Job have won the hearts of readers and critics alike. Stephen Mitchell now brings to the Bhagavad Gita his gift for breathing new life into sacred texts.
The Bhagavad Gita is universally acknowledged as one of the world's literary and spiritual masterpieces. It is the core text of the Hindu tradition and has been treasured by American writers from Emerson and Thoreau to T. S. Eliot, who called it the greatest philosophical poem after the Divine Comedy. There have been more than two hundred English translations of the Gita, including many competent literal versions, but not one of them is a superlative literary text in its own right.
Now all that has changed. Stephen Mitchell's Bhagavad Gita sings with the clarity, the vigor, and the intensity of the original Sanskrit. It will, as William Arrowsmith said of Mitchell's translation of The Sonnets to Orpheus, "instantly make every other rendering obsolete."
《薄伽梵歌》被誉为印度的圣经,我没想过自己会读这样的宗教典籍,毕竟大学时代,光是一本《圣经》读了4年也兴趣不大。 本质上来说,我是一个十分反宗教的科学崇拜者(虽然理科很糟糕),有一阵子我看见欧洲城市里一座座富丽堂皇的教堂会感到肠胃不适,我曾不喜欢它如此人为的...
评分印度的《薄伽梵歌》,成书于公元前400年~公元400年之间。被誉为“印度的圣经”,也是瑜伽哲学的必读经典。其讲述的是婆罗多王子阿周那不忍种族内部互相残害,想放弃王位,放弃夺权大战,而毗湿奴大神化身的黑天开导他,教他修炼“业瑜伽(专注于无私奉献的行动),智瑜伽(认...
评分作为无神论者本着科学性取其精华的读完这本书,我觉得这是上纲上线的鸡汤文啊,随便一则都可以展开写个微信转发贴。我强迫自己非要逻辑化的总结下:这是一本关于瑜伽精神的书,瑜伽把人分为三层,第一层为身体,是载体,主要是感官享受的欲求;第二层是思想更多是精神需求;第...
评分阿周那陷入道德的两难,他问出了仁义的问题,如果宣扬仁义,但是又违背仁义,这怎么可以,他困在逻辑中无法解脱,衰弱无力,无法战斗。薄伽梵劝说的方式是,你就这样干吧,反正人终有一死,你不杀死他们他们也会死,况且人的本质并不是靠消灭肉身就能伤害的。薄伽梵说了很多,...
