A UNIQUE MULTISENSORY SPECTACLE
We invite you to experience a unique 30-minute show that uses a combination of film, light, sound and water fountains to bring to life the basic tenets of the Gita.
Sage Vyasa wrote this composition over 18 chapters and 700 verses as the Srimad Bhagwad Gita. The Ramakrishna Mission selected 25 of those shlokas and every evening the surroundings of the same banyan tree, that was witness to the Updesh given by Krishna to Arjuna, comes alive in a multisensory spectacle.

THE BIRTHPLACE OF THE BHAGAVAD GITA
Jyotisar, in Kurukshetra, is one of Hinduism’s most important sites and it is here, under the immortal banyan tree, that Lord Krishna gave the essence of the Vedas to Arjuna, on the eve of the Mahabharata War.
"BHAGAVAD GITA IS BEST FOR LIFE MANAGEMENT"
- HARYANA CHIEF MINISTER
The Gita Show was inaugurated by Haryana Chief Minister, Shri Manohar Lal Khattar, on August 20th 2019.
IN LOVING MEMORY
The show, in its entirety, including concept, production and infrastructure, has been donated by TRL Riceland in loving memory of its founder, Narshidas Thakrar, his wife Hira Thakrar, and eldest son Rashmi Thakrar. TRL Riceland has promised to maintain the show for 2 years after which it will be handed over to the Kurukshetra Development Board.
