According to Tilak, Gita teaches selfless action as is said in Chatper 2, Verse 48: yogasthah kuru karmaani sangam tyaktvaa dhananjaya siddhyasiddhyoh samo bhuutvaa samatvam yoga ucyate Remaining steadfast in yoga, oh Dhananjaya (Arjuna), perform actions, abandoning attachment, remaining the same to success and failure alike. Karmayoga is the performnce of one's duty without nurturing any desire for its fruits. Lokamanya Bal Gangadhar Tilak, the author of this work, interprets Gita as the scripture of Karmayoga.
His famous quote, "Swaraj is my birthright, and I shall have it!" is well-remembered in India even today. Tilak was one of the first and strongest advocates of "Swaraj" (self-rule) in Indian consciousness. He was also conferred upon the honorary title of Lokmanya, which literally means "Accepted by the people (as their leader)". The British colonial authorities infamously and derogatorily called the great leader as "Father of the Indian unrest". Bal Gangadhar Tilak (1856-1920), was a great patriot, philosopher, social reformer and freedom fighter who were the first popular leader of the Indian Independence Movement. This book is the Hindi translation of Lokmanya Balgangadhar Tilak's classic and well-known work Srimad Bhagavad Gita - Gita Rahasya.
