Bhagavad Gita

Why Ancient Inquiry uses this citation here

Winthrop Sargeant's Sanskrit-English edition with grammatical analysis, published by SUNY Press; a translation-control source for terms and passages that are vulnerable to quote-mining.

What this usage does not establish

Bibliographic verification does not by itself establish that the full text was read.
Open topic

Topics citing it and claims using it

Limiting / critical citation for public claim

Claims that the Bhagavad Gita describes nuclear weapons arise from modern reception and decontextualized cosmic language, not a technical account in the text.

The evidence does not automatically support broader causal, technological, transmission, or literalizing claims beyond the cited record.
