Bhagavan 

A Sanskrit term describing the absolute, highest manifestation of Transcendence.

Although traditionally translated into English as "God", this term, "Bhagavan", is used by many who wish to distance themselves from the jingoistic uses of that traditional term, e.g., "God bless the U.S.A", "God is on our side", "My God is better than your god", "In God we trust", "God damn you to hell".

It is also used to differentiate between a spiteful, smiteful, jealous deity (as mentioned in the Bible) with an all-blissful Deity (as mentioned in the quintessential Hindu scripture, the Bhagavata Purana).
Far, far above the highest heaven is the abode of Bhagavan (Krishna).

Bhagavad Gita 

The Poetry by God, who descended on Earth when there was trouble. Essentially, a book describing how a soul can elevate to the Path of Krsna(/Krishna/Christ/God/Allah) Consciousness. Also called the "Hindu Bible."
A: I was just reading the Bhagavad Gita. In chapter 4, the 7th verse is thus:
Yadaa Yadaa He Dharmasya
Glaanir Bhavati Bhaarata
Abhyutthaanam Adharmasya
Tadaatmaanam Srijaamyaham

Can you explain me what that means?

B: It tells you what God said unto Arjuna. He (God) said,
"Whenever and wherever there is a decline in religious practices, O descendant of Bharata, and a predominant rise of irreligion -- at that time I descend Myself."
