Nelson Mandela was imprisoned for 27 years. Shortly after his release, when someone offered him a copy of the Bhagavad-Gita, Mandela informed him that he had read it already. When asked what he learnt from his reading, the revolutionary politician smiled and replied: “The Bhagavad-Gita taught me that if I didn’t overcome my bitterness, hatred and anger towards my perpetrators, though walking free from my cell, I’d still be very much imprisoned.”
