No translation is perfect. Scholars might note that Easwaran occasionally smoothes over ambiguities in the Sanskrit. For instance, the concept of nishkama karma (action without desire) is presented very optimistically, underplaying the radical ascetic tension in the original. Additionally, his insistence on a non-sectarian, universalist reading (Krishna as a symbol of the higher Self, not necessarily a deity) may disappoint traditional Vaishnava Hindus. But Easwaran is honest about his audience: he writes for the “spiritual but not religious” seeker, the therapist, the stressed student. For that audience, his translation is arguably the best.
