Divya Delhi:  The addition of Bhagavad Gita and Bharat Muni's Natyashastra manuscripts to UNESCO's Memory of the World Register is a cultural and civilizational development for India, Krishna-bhaktas worldwide, and South-East Asian nations that celebrate the epics in performing arts, visual arts, ancient temples, and temple architecture. India could intensify intercultural conversation by combining the Bhagavad Gita and Bharat Muni's Natyashastra to lead a global contribution to ‘stagecraft’ across domains and seek more than ‘recognition’. Narendra Modi has assertively reintroduced Gita as a "gift" to the world. He stated the Gita and Natyashastra have shaped civilization and consciousness for generations. Their ideas influence the world." Human and intellectual pursuits inspired by the Gita have focused on freedom through "swadharma" for millennia. Bharatiya civilization ranks the Gita second only to the Upanishads for its Vedic science. “Than the Gita no finer commentary on the Vedas has been published or can be written." The erudite have maintained for centuries that the GITA and Upanishads contain the essence of the Vedas. Swami Vivekananda proved why the Gita matters to India and the world.
