Shri Bhagavad-gita is also known as Gitopanishad. It is the essence of Vedic knowledge and one of the most important Upanishads in Vedic literature. The Bhagavad-Gita tells us how we should conduct ourselves in our day to day lives, keeping God at the center of our awareness and activities, performing our duties with a sense of detachment and as a way of our sacrificial offering, and accepting God as the doer and facilitator of all our actions and ourselves as mere instruments engaged in the act of liberation and self realization followed by God realization.
"gItA mE paramaM rUpaM" - Shrimad Bhagavad-gIta is sAkshAth pratIka of Lord Shri Krishna. Shri mahA Vishnu extolls the glory of Shrimad Bhagavad-gIta to Shri MahA Lakshmi dEvi. Shri Hari says, the first five adhyayas are his face, next ten adhyayas are his arms, the 16th adhyaya is his udara and last two adhyayas are his mangalakara pAdas. Shrimad Bhagavad-gIta is thus vAngmaya mUrthi of Shri mahA Vishnu.
