✨ “What if the teachings of the Gītā could be held in your hands, in a form so simple that it speaks to your soul immediately? Svagītā (Concise Booklet) is a gentle entry point into the Bhagavad Gītā’s first six chapters—guiding you with short verses, clear summaries, and practical wisdom you can use every day.”
Designed for seekers who want a clear and simple start, this booklet offers a guided path through the first six chapters of the Gītā—Karma Yoga, also known as the discipline of selfless action.
Instead of overwhelming depth or heavy commentary, this booklet gives:
One or two sample verses to write from each chapter, presented with straightforward meaning
Chapter summaries that bring the message into daily life
Sequential meaning of all 280 verses from the first six chapters
Ritesh S. Nigam, Author of the Year at Oxford University and a UK Parliament awardee, shares the Svagītā as a living guide for everyday life, so a beginner can read it with ease and a seeker can return to it again and again.
The larger Svagītā, Volume One, unfolds every verse like a journal—inviting the reader to pause, reflect, and even write their own insights on the path to self-discovery. This concise edition is a taste of that journey.
More than a text, Svagītā encourages you to live the Gītā. Writing down reflections connects you deeper, just as sages of the past did, and awakens the Arjuna within—the courage to rise in clarity and freedom.

Ritesh S. Nigam
Ritesh S. Nigam is an award-winning author and speaker whose life journey echoes the very struggles and triumphs of the Bhagavad Gītā. Honoured at the UK Parliament with the Excellence in Spiritual Literature & Thought Leadership Award, and celebrated as “Author of the Year” at Keble College, Oxford University, he brings timeless wisdom into the modern world with warmth, simplicity, and lived experience.
Raised in Bhopal, Bharat, in a family rooted in Sanatan spiritual values, Ritesh absorbed the rhythms of devotion and storytelling from his earliest years. But his path was not a straight road of faith. Life tested him deeply — including a brush with death and years of wrestling with mental health challenges. In those moments of doubt and darkness, he felt the same confusion Arjuna faced on the battlefield. Out of that pain, his words began to flow.
In 2017, his Six-Word Crowdfunding book publishing story was first featured in the Reading Chronicle, marking the birth of his author journey. That simple, life-saving act of writing became his ladder out of despair. From there, he created Link Poetry, a literary genre to connect hearts and minds through short, powerful verses shared across communities and schools.
His breakthrough came through Svagītā — a transformational experience born from his dialogue with the Bhagavad Gītā. The Hindi edition touched thousands of readers in India, offering not just a translation but a lived interpretation that readers could carry into their daily lives. Now, with Svagītā (English Edition), Ritesh shares the same wisdom with a global audience seeking meaning, balance, and hope.
What makes Ritesh’s work stand out is his approach: he does not lecture, he walks beside the reader. Svagītā is not just scripture for him — it is a journey, a journal, and a conversation. He calls the act of writing reflections on the verses a way to awaken the “Arjuna within,” turning reading into practice and life into a path of freedom.
Today, Ritesh lives in England with his wife, Aditi — whose Mandala and Madhubani art graces the pages of Svagītā — and their two teenage children. As a family, they carry forward the spirit of art, culture, and spiritual inquiry as a way of life.
