Ah, that's on my list. I'm currently working through the Bhagavad Gita for Daily Living (https://www.amazon.com/Bhagavad-Daily-Living-Verse-Verse-ebo...), which is basically a line by line reading of the Gita, except each line has extensive commentary by Easwaran on its interpretation and applicability to daily life.

It's much longer, and definitely not meant to be read in one sitting. Instead, I read it a little bit every morning, a little bit every night. To me, living a good life is hard and requires constant effort—the wisdom in these texts can't possibly sink in after just a single reading. Sustained reading and re-reading grooves the text into the brain, and over time changes our thoughts, which over time changes our actions, which changes the whole world.
