Abstrak

This is an essay on the relation of Andr{é} and Simone Weil with Indian culture and Sanskrit literature, especially the Bhagavad G{ī}t{ā}, a Hindu scripture which they knew well, which they quoted extensively, and which guided them in making important life decisions. In addressing this question, we will also talk about the life paths of the two Weils, and more specifically about certain aspects that relate to their deep convictions.
