In 1764, the Society of St Andrews reduced their course from 22 holes to 18 — not by design, but by merging four short holes into two. Golf Gita asks: was it coincidence that 18 also governs the Gita and Kurukshetra?
Golf is not merely a game of clubs and courses. It is a mirror — reflecting patience, ego, duality, and the restless mind back at the player who dares to look.
Golf Gita draws the line between them. Each of the 18 holes corresponds to one of the 18 chapters of the Gita — and to one of the 18 inner forces that shape how we play, how we think, and how we live.
After nine holes · Before the turn
Nine inner forces have met you on the course. The sacred pause is not an interruption — it is a threshold. The golfer who walks into the back nine unchanged has not truly played the front nine.
“What did the front nine reveal about you? What will you carry forward — and what will you leave behind?”
Golf Gita maps the inner forces behind every outer frustration.
The ego steps in the moment the shot becomes meaningful. It needs to perform, to be seen, to succeed — and that need tightens the grip and poisons the swing.
“Golf was the first discipline that demanded everything from me — not just my swing, but my silence. It asked me to face the ego I had built across forty years of business, migration, and identity. The Bhagavad Gita had been asking me the same question all along. I simply had not heard it until I stood on a fairway in Tanzania and finally ran out of excuses.”
Nazeer Tajudeen
Born into a life shaped by many cultures and faiths, Nazeer migrated from India to Tanzania in 1991. Golf found him in 2000 and became his calling by 2005. Recognised among the top 50 golf coaches in 2024, he believes golf is more mental and spiritual than physical.
