Critics Review
“The Bhagavad Gita is a preeminent text of spiritual liberation, whose mystical import has seldom been addressed in print. Teitsworth reveals its hidden significance in an elucidation that stands head and shoulders above the rest. If you have ever wondered what yoga is really all about, this is the place to look.” * Dennis Dalton, author of Mahatma Gandhi: Nonviolent Power in Action and professor emeritus at Barnar *“I am delighted with Scott Teitsworth’s The Path to the Guru. It is an exceptional approach to concentrate on just two chapters! Scott’s interpretation is well suited for the modern day. I would highly recommend this book to spiritual seekers of all faiths.” * Bill Robinson, Ph.D., composer and lecturer of physics at North Carolina State University *“The Bhagavad Gita is a multifaceted jewel shedding multicolored lights. The author has caught quite a few of these lights and thus has shed more light on this ancient classic that will prove to be of immense help to all lovers of the book.” * Vanamali Mataji, founder and president of Vanamali Gita Yoga Ashram Trust and author of seven books *“Scott Teitsworth’s relevant and in-depth analysis of its first two sections of the Bhagavad Gita skillfully balances a perspective that is both accessible and true to the heart of the original text.” * Jason Bowman, vinyasa yoga teacher *
