The society is itself so filled with flaws that each of us wonders whether what we do is right or wrong. The Gita helps us to solve this riddle and teaches us the right way to lead life. Bhagavad Gita is also hailed as yoga shaastra since it deals with the practice of the highest ideals in all walks of life. The Gita teaches us to lead life without attachment, like a lotus-leaf which remains in water, but does not wet its surface. The one who places all actions in the Eternal, abandoning attachment, is unaffected by sin .
Attachment arises due to desires and is due to the lower qualities of the mind.
Non-attachment is born out of Sattva which is a divine attribute. Practice of non-attachment is rigorous and the only attachment one should aspire to have is towards God or Atman. Srimad Bhagavad Gita teaches us the theory and values of these qualifications and as a yoga shaastra, teaches us the way to practice them in our path towards God-Realization. The Bhagavad Gita brings the greatest wisdom to human life. Some people feel that Gita should not be taught to children and if youngsters read it then they will become sannyaasis.
