Multimedia Bhagavad-gita CD
An interactive multimedia
CDROM based on Srila Prabhupada's Bhagavad-gita As It is. This Gita CD
contains all that is in the printed book and more. In fact, it adds what print
media cannot reproduce: sound and visual movement-- all synchronized with text.
This combination produces a powerful rendition of the
Bhagavad-gita that has bhajans, background music, narration of
slokas, lectures by Srila Prabhupada and even video clips of the Krsna conscious
lifestyle. There is special emphasis on visual and aural experience of chanting
the Hare Krsna maha-mantra, offering food to Lord Krsna, the parampara, a short
biography of Srila Prabhupada, the various books written by His Divine Grace and
a short sketch on the life and teachings of Lord Caitanya. All of these items
are presented in a unique multimedia form. The single CD contains about 30 hours
of audio, 275 color pictures, video clips, and nearly 1000 pages of text.
This ecstatic CD has been reviewed by many scholars and devotees around the

- "Just received the CD Bhagavad Gita as it is. WOW. brought tears to my
eyes. My 12 year old daughter is in school. I think she will enjoy it.... I
was shocked at the greeting of the dieties with the drapes opening and
closing, the part about Srila Prabhupada was very well done....as a devotee I
was a bit overwhelmed." Pandava Vijaya dasa. (HKTV)
- "I am enjoying your CD very much. In the beginning, I enjoyed listening to
the Hare Krishna Maha Mantra along with all the other songs on it (I
especially enjoyed all the pictures). It also gave me an introduction on the
different festivals that take place. Lately, I have been listening to
Prabhupada's lectures. The lectures are incredible. I have only listened to a
couple of them and as I get time, I will listen to the rest. I have never
heard Prabhupada speaking and hearing him speak is extremely pleasing
especially because I know that his message can be taken exactly as it is
spoken without need for further clarificaton. One very informative thing I
found on the CD was the prayers said before offering food....I found the CD to
be a fun and interesting way of learning about Krishna Consciousness." Pankaj
