Sri bhagvadgita teaches the purpose of human life , the gist of Vedas . Although Vedas do not emphasise on Parmatma and Atma concept much but on karmkandas comprising of yagyas for divine offerings etc . One may infer to myths of different divine characters .
Being born as a human everybody wants to know about god , self , the nature and the universe . Certainly no one can sit idle without performing any work . The work done and the resultant after forces a human to think about all the cycle . Here Gita shloka is quoting ..
(Adhishthaanam tathaa kartaa karanam cha prithagvidham;
Vividhaashcha prithakcheshtaa daivam chaivaatra panchamam 14/18 ch gita ) .
No person has enough time to devote for gurus and scriptures these days . It is therefore tough to go into spirituality . When we look on gita direction it says..
(Tasmaat shaastram pramaanam 24/16 ch ) .
Vedas contain such a language which existed at very earlier times and could not be framed under any dictionary . Many indian and foreign scholars tried to translate Vedas and a few could say something but not very accurate . Sri bhagvadgita , being in sanskrit language , therefore makes easy to understand this all .
(Tatah padam tat parimaargitavyam
Yasmin gataa na nivartanti bhooyah 4/15 ch ).
Valmiki ramayan describes some vedmantras not to be recited on yagyas , which gita also hints as..
(Yajante naamayajnaiste dambhenaavidhipoorvakam 17/16 ch )
As it may be very harmful for the person not reciting exactly . The reason being Vedas contain not only words meaning but something spiritual and divine working with sound energy which gita says..
(Karma chaiva tadartheeyam sadityevaabhidheeyate 27/17 ch )
Therefore it is related to deities one can say , of course no other than incarnation of Vishnu is supposed to worship .
Brahmasutra was framed keeping the core idea of Brahman , Upanishads there after and then puranas with keeping in mind the different characters described in Vedas as history . We may say that Upanishads and puranas contain myths where characters are real and taken from Vedas so relate to earlier times but these all are framed in Sanskrit which came into being much time after .
Sri bhagvadgita describes the living both ways including scientific and spiritual .
Religion has been a broad factor of life and duty a social and life culture so it is important to cover both in a time which sri bhagvadgita explains in 18 chapters and in 700 shlokas .
