How abbvd. is it?

I ordered my sister one, silver and it went to her house no worries.

I don't think it would be a scam, other than their rules, if you gave your blue gita to another friend. Or if you went to the library and found a full sized copy, you could read it and decided if you maybe just don't like the simplicity of the shorted one. There are many e-gitas out there as well for comparison.

While I like the Gita, there is some heavy, ' worship only me ' words from Krishna, that I feel need metaphore applied or a good understanding that Krishna is an avatar of the Supreme Being and Arjuna repesents the perfect student. Otherwise it sounds really 'or else' to some who aren't familiar.

The silver Gita is 121 pages I believe. I just finished reading it again last nite, on the bus.

Glad you are happy with yours. And want to see more
