Lessons from the Bhagavad Gita are all around us: Evidence from India's Largest Farmers' Protest

Journal Title: Journal of Economics, Finance and Management Studies - Year 2023, Vol 6, Issue 08

Abstract

Generally, the farmers are assumed to carry out their obligations in the field. However, the nation has observed their presence on the highways during the passage of three farm-related statutes. After the struggle for more than a year, the farmers succeeded to get these laws revoked by the Government. Rather than being critical of farm bills/acts whether these were good or bad, the present study is an attempt to describe the glimpses of the Bhagavad Gita observed during the largest farm protest. It was observed that various lessons from the Gita comprising the karma-yoga, temporariness of happiness as well as grief and many more had a significant influence throughout the journey of the protest.
