Here is what people are saying about the The Bhagavad Gita
 "Bhagavad Gita " | 2008-12-14 |
| - Reviewed By palmer from Texas, USA |
| Great study version. This version breaks down the names and defines their meaning. It does not supply a commentary. |

| "Best translation of Bhagavad Gita!" | 2008-04-08 |
| - Reviewed By Uccai Siravas |
| I have read over a dozen translations of Bhagavad Gita over the past 25 years. IMHO, this is the best English translation. The "inter-liner" translation is really a neat idea and I wish someone does inter-liner translations for other ancient works such as Thiru-Kural. |

 "Not for Beginner" | 2008-03-11 |
| - Reviewed By Puneet Grover |
| The book is a translation from Sanskrit to English. Excellent if that is what you are looking. However, if you are looking for interpretation or an understanding of what it means then better buy some other book like the Bhagavad-Gita As It Is by A. C. Bhaktivedanta. Some may call it biased, but I think it is better for a new reader. |

| "May God Bless Sargeant W" | 2008-02-20 |
| - Reviewed By Shaker from West Haven, CT United States |
| Sargeant W's efforts are helpful to Sanskrit lovers/learners. Sargeant Krishna & Sage Vyasa's message is made more transparent to sanskrit learners. |

 "scholarly" | 2008-02-05 |
| - Reviewed By da1andonlysupa from ohio |
| This book is meant for scholars or students looking to translate Bhagavad Gita and have a reference point for those difficult verses. There is nothing more to the book than an intro., and the Gita translated word for word. Even the verses themselves cannot be found whole. That is not to say that this isn't an excellent book. I have another similar book but he has some different opinions on the names: winthrop's Gudakesha- "thick haired one" but the other guy says: Gudakesha- "conquerer of sleep" This also happens with Hrishikesha: (don't quote me on this one) "spiny haired one" and the other guy writes Hrishikesha: "conquerer of the senses" I'm leaning toward the other guy (forgive me for not having the name) because the rest of the "nicknames" refer to past achievements and such. So, if you want to learn sanskrit and you're ready for the Gita this will be excellent, or if you're memorizing verses and want to know the exact meaning behind them, this is for you. |

| "An excellent interlinear translation." | 2007-10-19 |
| - Reviewed By Thomas Martin |
| This is an excellent interlinear translation. For each word, Sargeant gives grammatical information, like gender, case and number. Then each verse has an idiomatic translation to English which is very faithful to the original. Some verses also have a commentary - very useful. There is also an introduction describing the contents of the Mahabharata, of which the Bhagavad Gita is a part. One thing missing is an index, therefore I would recommend buying also Schweig's or Easwaran's translation. |
