Dr. Sajni Vaidya has spent 45 years as a cosmetic dentist, helping people improve their smiles. But after retiring, she decided to focus on something even more meaningful—bringing the teachings of the Bhagavad Gita to more people. Her book, TAT – That is Brahman, co-written with her friend Anuradha Mahajan, makes the wisdom of the Gita easy to understand for English-speaking readers.
A New Direction in Life
Born and educated in Mumbai, Dr. Vaidya studied at the Government Dental College and later specialized in cosmetic dentistry at New York University. She worked in Mumbai for 12 years before moving to Bahrain, where she continued her practice. But over the past 12 years, her interest in spirituality grew, leading her to study the Bhagavad Gita deeply under the guidance of Sangeeta Dhown.
The Purpose of TAT – That is Brahman
Dr. Vaidya realized that many people avoid reading the Bhagavad Gita because they think it is too difficult or because they believe it requires giving up their way of life. She wanted to change this idea by presenting the teachings in a simple and structured way. During the COVID-19 pandemic, she started teaching the Gita online, helping others understand its lessons. Encouraged by her mentor, she wrote this book with easy explanations, summaries, charts, and tables to make learning effortless.
What This Book Covers
This book focuses on Bhakti Yoga, which is about devotion. It explains the meaning of Chapters 7 to 12 in a clear way, helping people apply these teachings in their daily lives. It is meant for students, professionals, and anyone who wants to understand the Gita but does not know Sanskrit.
Looking Ahead
After the success of TAT – That is Brahman, Dr. Vaidya is now working on the next part of the series, which will cover the last six chapters of the Bhagavad Gita. Her goal is to make sure that more people can benefit from this wisdom, no matter their background.
A Book Worth Reading
If you have always wanted to learn from the Bhagavad Gita but found it too complex, this book is a great place to start. Dr. Vaidya has made sure that the lessons are easy to follow, so more people can bring this knowledge into their lives.
