Introduction
The "Bhagavad-Gita" is a doctrine of universal truth. Its message is universal, sublime, and nonsectarian although it is a part of the scriptural trinity of Sanaatan Dharm, commonly known as Hinduism
The message of Bhagavad-Gita came to humanity due to Arjun's unwillingness to do his duty as a warrior, because fighting involved destruction and killing

Way of Knowledge
The four divisions of labor in human society, based on individual aptitude, were created by Me. Though I am the author of this system of division of labor, one should know that I do nothing and I am eternal. (The lord has created people with multitude of skills to run all the affairs of the world) The one who sees inaction in action, and action in inaction, is a wise person per son Acquiring of spiritual knowledge is superior to any other material activity such as austerity and charity, because, spiritual knowledge is the goal go al and the end result of Karma
Meditation
When there is no desire for sensual pleasures, or attachment to the fruits of work, and one has renounced all selfish desires, then one is said to have attained yogic perfection
One can elevate or degrade oneself by one's own mind. The mind can become one's best friend, or the worst enemy. The mind becomes a friend to the one who has control over it, and becomes an enemy for the one who is controlled by the mind, because the uncontrolled mind will take one for a ride on the dark streets of sin
