Hindu Religious Book Geeta. Hinduism as both a global religion and a form of nationalism are discussed. With its translation and study by western scholars beginning in the early 18th century, the bhagavad gita gained a growing appreciation and popularity.

That's because most hindus know and care very little about the philosophy of their religion. The gita is primarily a philosophical book. And in religious writing like the bhagwat geeta, there are several references to the flying vehicles.
