Essays on the Gita [1]

My brother is thinking of starting a bookselling and publishing business and has asked for one or two books of Sri Aurobindo for publication. May I prepare for him an edition of the Gita with only the text and Sri Aurobindo’s translation compiled from the Essays on the Gita?

The casual renderings in the Essays cannot be published as my translation,– they were not intended for the purpose.
