''Bhagavad Gita'' means “Song of God.” It is written as a dialogue between Krishna and Arjuna. Krishna describes himself as “the Lord of all that breathes” and “the Lord who abides within the heart of all beings,” meaning one who is in union with God, one who has attained that union that is God. He says: “When goodness grows weak, when evil increases, my Spirit arises on earth. In every age I come back to deliver the holy, to destroy the sin of the sinner, to establish righteousness.”<ref>Swami Prabhavananda and Christopher Isherwood, trans., ''Bhagavad Gita'' (Hollywood, Calif.: Vedanta Press, 1987), p. 58; Juan Mascaro, trans., ''The Bhagavad Gita'' (New York: Penguin Books, 1962), pp. 61–62.</ref> | ''Bhagavad Gita'' means “Song of God.” It is written as a dialogue between Krishna and Arjuna.
