What if Krishna, after delivering the Bhagavad Gītā, encountered the Blessed Śākyamuni Buddha? How would his understanding of devotion, duty, liberation, and awakening evolve?
Buddhagītā: The Awakening of Krishna is a work of comparative spiritual fiction that imagines Krishna's transformative encounter with the Dharma. Through the lens of the Akṣobhyavyūha Framework, Krishna becomes a Bodhisattva who reinterprets the teachings of the Bhagavad Gītā in light of dependent origination, emptiness, Bodhicitta, and the Mahāyāna path.
Presented as a complete spiritual commentary, the book explores all eighteen chapters of the Bhagavad Gītā before expanding into original sutra-style narratives, contemplative parables, devotional liturgies, philosophical essays, meditations, and practical guidance for cultivating wisdom and compassion.
Blending the literary beauty of Buddhist scriptures with the timeless symbolism of the Gītā, Buddhagītā is not a historical claim but an imaginative exploration of humility, transformation, and the universal aspiration to relieve suffering.
Whether you are interested in Mahāyāna Buddhism, Pure Land traditions, comparative philosophy, or sacred fiction, this volume offers a unique vision in which devotion matures into Bodhicitta, wisdom deepens through compassion, and every sincere seeker is invited to walk the Bodhisattva Path.
May all beings awaken.
