That which was taught to Arjuna by Lord Narayana himself,
Which was written by the epic sage Vyasa in the middle of Mahabaratha,
Oh Mother goddess who showers the nectar of advaitha called the Bhagavad Gita,

Who has filled up the oil to the lamp of Mahabaratha, and lighted it to pinpoint wisdom.

sottīrṇā khalu pāṇḍavārṇavanadī kaivartakaḥ keśvaḥBheeshma and Drona were two banks, Jayadrada was the water, Sakuni the king of Gandhara was the blue lotus,
Salya was the crocodile, Kripa was the tide, Karna was the mighty wave,
Aswathama and Vikarna were the dangerous alligators and Duryodhana was the whirlpool,
And the Pandavas crossed this river of war with Krishna as their helmsman.

bhūyādbhāratapaṅkajaṃ kalimalapradhvaṃsanaṃ śreyase
Let the lotus flower of Mahabharata, which arose from the water,
Which are the words of son of Parasara, which has the pollen grains of different stories,
Which is taught in the form of stories of Lord Vishnu,
That is drunk by the honey bee of very good people,
Help those who want to remove the ills of Kali yuga (era)
मूकं करोति वाचालं

paramānandamādhavamI salute that Maadhava, the source of supreme bliss, whose grace makes the dumb man eloquent and the cripple cross mountains.
यं ब्रह्मा वरुणेन्द्ररुद्रमरुतः स्तुन्वन्ति दिव्यैः स्तवैर्
वेदैः साङ्गपदक्रमोपनिषदैर्गायन्ति यं सामगाः

dhyānāvasthitatadgatena manasā paśyanti yaṃ yogino
yasyāntaṃ na viduḥ surāsuragaṇā devāya tasmai namaḥI
salute him who is worshipped by divine chants by Brahma, Varuna, Indra, Rudra and Vayu. Who is pleased by singers of Sama Veda, by singing Vedas and Upanishads, by following the word sequence. Who is seen by yogis who are absorbed in him, with their mind merging in him, and whose end is not known even by the devas and asuras.
Description
The Gītā Dhyānam, also called the Gītā Dhyāna or the Dhyāna Ślokas associated with the Gītā, is a 9-verse Sanskrit poem that has often been attached to the Bhagavad Gita, one of the most important scriptures of Hinduism. In English, its title can be translated literally as ‘meditation on the Gita’ and it is also sometimes called the Invocation to the Gita.
The nine Gita Dhyanam verses offer salutations to a variety of sacred scriptures, Gods, and other entities, characterize the relationship of the Gita to the Upanishads, and affirm the power of divine assistance.
Gita Dhyanam is like a prayer. The purpose of studying the prayer verses is to invoke the grace of the Lord so that we can successfully complete the study of the Bhagavad Gita. To ward off the obstacles that may come. You know Bhagavad Gita is part of Mahabharata but these prayer verses are not from Mahabharata. The prayer verses were written by a great acharya by name Madhusudana Saraswati before he wrote his commentary on the Bhagavad Gita. The name of his commentary is called Gudhartha Dipika, a lamp which illumines the hidden and deeper meanings of the Bhagavad Gita. It is a very famous commentary on the Gita. Before starting the actual Gita we study of the nine verses of Dhyana Sloka written by this Acharya.
In these verses the Acharya offers Namaskarams to Mahabharatam (for it is the greatest book), Bhagavad Gita (looking upon Gita as mother Saraswati the embodiment of wisdom), Vyasacharya (the author of Mahabharatam and therefore the author of Gita also), and Krishna (who gives the Gita teaching to Arjuna).
