A: Are the words inside Bhagvad Gita exactly the same words used in actual conversation (ie, used By Lord Krishna and Arjuna)?

As far as I know nowhere is mentioned something like VedVyasa modified/reformatted the conversation in Anushtup meter. It is believed that Srimad Bhagavad Gita which we currently have is the original/exact as said by Krishna and that's why it is called "The song of Lord". Adi Shankaracharya has...

@Pandya - I will try - " Gita litrally is Bhagvan Shree Krishna's own "Vaani" (वाणी) or words.Ved Vyasa is compiler of the same.Some part's are in "Padya"(पद्य) or in poetry form.Which Ved Vyasa written down as they are or as they been convers.Some parts are in "Gadya" (गद्य) or Passage form.As well as conversation between , sanjay , Dhrutastra and arjuna is in shlokas.

@Pandya - ....All this is in 700 shlokas and 18 chapters are written in mahabharata , & are with examples.:)

Pandya

गीता साक्षात भगवान श्रीक्रुष्णके मुखार्विन्दसे निकली हुइ वाणी है।
इसके संकलनकर्ता वेदव्यासजी है।
भगवान श्रीक्रुष्णने अपने उपदेशका मोटा (मोटेतौर पर) अंश तो पद्यमें ही कहा था, जिसको वेदव्यासजीने वैसा का वैसा ही लिख लिया , थोडा अंश जो गद्यमें कहा था, उसको व्यासजीने स्वयं श्लोकबध्ध कर दिया, साथ साथ अर्जुन, संजय व ध्रुतराष्ट्र के वचनोको अपनी भाषामें श्लोकबद्ध करके ढाल दीया (श्लोकबद्ध आकार दीया)। और इस सातसो श्लोकके सम्पुर्ण ग्रंथको अठारह अध्यायोमें विभाजीत करके महाभारतमें रख दीया। जो आज हमें इस रूपमें मिला है।

Gita came directly from the divine mouth of Lord Krishna and then it was compiled by Veda Vyasa. Mostly in all part of Gita, Lord Krishna gave his teachings in poetrical form which was kept by Veda Vyasa as it is. For few parts (told by Krishna) which were not in poetrical form, Vyasa himself converted it into poetrical form. Vyasa also converted the words of Arjuna, Sanjaya and Dhritarastra in poetical form.

And he divided these 700 verses into 18 chapters and kept it inside Mahabharata which we see today.

@Pandya Above is the translation... ^^^

@Tezz - Yes , a fine translation 😊👍👍

Pandya

@Tezz OK, Thanks, I've implemented it. Btw, autocorrected poetrical to poetical

Tezz

@Pandya Is that "Greatness of Gita" part of any scripture...?

What is the authority that it is right...?

@SwiftPushkar 😀😀😀

Pandya

@Tezz You're right, it might be primarily written by Publisher: Gita Press Gorakhpur and writer (may be Goyandaka) and we can always ask the publisher/writer about the authority of it. Anyway, I've just quoted what I found as Gitapress publication is mostly considered authentic.
