Inner Kurukshetra : Bhagavad Gita Through the Lens of Psychology
Overview
What makes this book different?
A book that began as a journal,We live in a world of endless information, constant distractions, difficult choices, emotional reactions, and minds that sometimes refuse to slow down. We have modern psychology to help us understand these experiences. But what if we could also explore some of these questions through one of the world's oldest and most influential texts, the Bhagavad Gita?
In INNER KURUKSHETRA: Bhagavad Gita Through the Lens of Psychology, Deepthi Rowlo explores the parallels she has noticed between selected Bhagavad Gita verses and concepts from psychology.This is not a traditional commentary on the Bhagavad Gita. It is a personal exploration of how its verses can invite us to think about the human mind, our emotional responses, our decisions, and the patterns that shape our lives.
What can Arjuna's inner conflict make us question about our own decisions?
What can the relationship between desire and anger reveal about our emotional reactions? How might our attachment to outcomes affect our ability to act? And what happens when we repeatedly understand what is good for us but struggle to follow through?
Through these and other reflections, the book explores themes such as:
Overthinking, confusion, and decision-making
Anger, expectations, and emotional responses
Procrastination, action, and attachment to outcomes
Self-discipline, attention, and recurring habits
The relationship between thoughts, choices, and behaviour
While reading Bhagavad Gita verses, the author often found herself recalling lessons she had learned through psychology and other areas of study. Whenever a connection stood out, she wrote it down. Over time, these observations became the foundation of this book.
You are reading those personal reflections, collected and shared as an invitation to explore the connections for yourself. The interpretations presented here are the author's own. They are not intended to be the only possible meanings of the verses or a complete explanation of the Bhagavad Gita. As you read, you are invited to ask your own questions: What does this verse make me notice? Where does this pattern appear in my life? What might I understand differently if I look at it from another perspective?
INNER KURUKSHETRA brings together self-help, psychology, ancient wisdom, and modern life in a way that encourages curiosity as much as self-reflection.
You may begin by looking for answers to everyday struggles. You may finish by asking different questions about yourself. Either way, the journey begins with understanding your own mind.
