Gita Jayanti
Dates follow the Indian calendar (IST). If you’re outside India, your local temple may observe a day earlier or later for tithi-based festivals.
The Gita was not spoken in a temple but on a battlefield - because life's biggest questions arise not in comfort but in crisis. Today, we don't just read the Gita - we recognize that each moment of choice is our Kurukshetra.
