There was spiral bound printing of the B.Gita Chapts 7-8-9 translation and
commentary by Maharishi that recently was clandestinely passed around
Fairfield, in the last year or two. This had translation and commentary by
Maharishi that was edited by some in the TM movement.
Some years ago I was given a photocopy of the complete chapters of Maharishi’s
translation and commentary. It is somewhere, possibly in a pile of related
papers.
Jerry Jarvis in his papers had the complete B.Gita chapters that Maharishi
did, with translation and commentary. Hopefully they are secure in some
academic collection now somewhere that they can become public domain. I spoke
with Jerry about this in the last year or so and he had hoped to have it
published without its being tampered with in someone’s job of further editing.
Don’t know if the whole of MMY’s Gita translation and commentary and nothing
but the Gita translation and commentary from Maharishi will see the light of
day.
The status of Maharishi’s complete B.Gita is a lot like back when the
christian Churches tried to suppress the direct reading of the Bible by any
except in direct authority of clergy.
Like in those Christian times of suppression there are now reading groups
springing up to share and read M’s Gita directly outside of the TM.rg’s direct
control.

Hugues,
I bought Chapter 7 of the Gita from the MUM bookstore. But a few years ago,
someone wrote here on this site that the Purusha group wanted the books
exclusively for their own use. Hence, the bookstore stopped selling them.
You can get an idea of the topics discussed by reading Srila Prabhupada's
version of the Gita, "As It Is".

Hello, Greetings ;
I wondered where could we find the later chapters of the
Bhagavad Gita (7, 8, 9) Maharishi has not yet published, I know there is one
section on the "links" page but it doesn't work anymore...
I wondered also , as the library of 16 books by Maharishi is not available on
the Maharishi Ayurveda Websites, where could it be available or Rather have you
got " Ram - Ramayan- Ram Leela_ Ram Raj" book by Maharishi or other books you
might have ?
I know it is quite a lot of wonderings... Thank you very much in advance...
Hugues, JGD
