What Parents Should Know About the Bhagavad Gita for Children

The Bhagavad Gita is one of the most important spiritual texts in the world, but how do you explain it to kids?

In simple terms, the Gita is a conversation between Krishna and the warrior Arjuna on the battlefield of Kurukshetra. Arjuna is torn between his duty as a warrior and his love for family. Krishna explains the importance of doing one’s duty, acting with purpose, and finding balance in life.

For children, the lessons can be simplified into ideas like: always try your best, don’t give up when things are hard, and be kind without expecting rewards. Parents don’t need to dive into deep philosophy to share these lessons. With comics and kid-friendly storytelling, the Gita becomes a source of inspiration rather than confusion.

At The Patel Comics, we’re passionate about making the Bhagavad Gita accessible to children. Through illustrations and dialogue, we help bring its timeless wisdom to life in a way young readers can truly understand.
