Wendy Doniger On Gita

"The Bhagavad Gîtâ is not as nice a book as some Americans think.

Throughout the Mahâbhârata ... Krishna goads human beings into all

sorts of murderous and self-destructive behaviours such as war....

The Gîtâ is a dishonest book; it justifies war. ..I'm a pacifist. I

don't believe in `good' wars."

Wendy Doniger, Indologist and Professor of History of Religions at

the University of Chicago: Philadelphia Inquirer of 19 November.

2000.)
