The Bhagavad Gita, called the Gita for short, contains seven hundred verses and forms eighteen chapters of the Mahabharata, the twenty-fifth through the forty-second, in the section on Bhishma. Among the sacred books of India the Bhagavad Gita occupies a very high place. The study of the Gita, the Upanishads, and the Brahma-sutras, with their commentaries, is a discipline for orthodox Hindu sannyasis of the Vedantist school.
