Lord Krishna assumes the role of Arjuna's chariot driver and aids him in the battle and reveals to Arjuna several divine truths about human existence in the material plane, the true nature of the supreme personality of God, and the method of eternal progression and release from the earthly cycles of death and rebirth through the practice of bhakti yoga. In the narrative, Lord Krishna has descended to earth to aid Arjuna in his battle against Kauravas and their army. The narrative in the Bhagavad-Gītā concerns a dialogue between Lord Krishna and a mighty warrior named Arjuna on the battlefield of Kurukshetra. An extensive commentary by Prabhupada is given throughout, based on various Gaudiya Vaishnava works, including: Ramanuja Bhasya (in Sanskrit) Sarartha-varsini-tika (Sanskrit) by Visvanatha Chakravarti Thakura Gita-bhusana-tika (Sanskrit) by Baladeva Vidyabhushana and Bhaktivinode Thakur's Bengali commentaries. For each verse, the book (in complete editions) includes the Devanagari script, a Latin transliteration, word-for-word Sanskrit- English meanings, and English translation.
