Learning Gita

Studying the Gita is nothing but learning about God and eventually becoming One with God. To learn about God means first knowing and then becoming God. That means eradicating self­-love, ego, selfishness, and possessiveness.
This level of humility is essential to realize that you yourself are God. The process is slow and requires a lot of practice, but it can be done. It is feasible in this very life and in this very world. It would be nice if you could go to a secluded place and learn from a saint. Or, you can stay with your family, fulfill your obligations and learn along the way. Either way, it requires total dedication, lots of worldly sacrifices and constant practice.
