Bhagbat Gita                              Aurobindo saw Bhagavad Gita as a "scripture of the future religion" and suggested that Hinduism had acquired a much wider relevance through the Gita.An 1830 CE painting depicting Arjuna, on the chariot, paying obeisance to Lord Krishna, the charioteer.An old torn paper with a painting depicting the Mahabharata war, with some verses recorded in Sanskrit.Painting depicting a multi-armed, multi-headed being– Vishvarupa of Krishna.Photograph of a bronze chariot.
