For 700 years the tragic demise of this society of warrior-monks amid accusations of heresy has been plagued by controversy, in part because the transcript of their trial by the Inquisition - which held the key to the truth - had vanished.Templar historian Barbara Frale happened to be studying a document at the Vatican Secret Archives when she suddenly realized that it was none other than the long-lost transcript!

This book distils and presents some of the most important, powerful lessons from the Gita. The Gita is perhaps the most balanced mix of both the practical and the cosmically profound aspects of our existence. It is the ‘art of war’ as well as the art of inner peace. At its heart, the Gita contains a mystical code or set of fundamental principles related to warrior-hood and leadership (netritva) of all kinds, making it relevant and universal in a way no other text is. It stands apart as a must-have spiritual guide for life and leadership success.
