Bhagwad Gita has been recited by Bhagwan Shri Krishna first to Surya, then to Manu, and then to Iksvaku . After many years, it was once again recited to Arjuna during the Mahabharata Yuddha. Since thousands of years, the principles of Gita are being preached in different parts of the world. Surya, Manu and Iksvaku were all kings once upon a time and the Bhagwad Gita has been recited to the people at the appropriate time in order to uplift them to lead a quality life. That was the purpose of Bhagwad Gita. Bhagwad Gita does not belong to any caste, creed or religion. It is merely an epic where an acharya, the Lord, a teacher explains the dharma and karma of life to the people, to a disciple. Read at different times, be it in Satyuga, Trethayuga, Dwaparyuga or Kaliyuga, it always appears as if it has been written particularly for that day. The meaning of Puraana itself is: "Puraa Nava Ithi Puraanaha" which means, Old but always New. It is always new; it always has a principle to live, to lead a life.

The Harappan-Mohanjodaro (Dravidian)civilisation around the banks of Indus (now in pakistan),\nand the related Vedic civilisation again near Indus and later on the Ganges , formed by the mixture of the cultures of Dravidian and invading Aryan tribes. \n\nThese are perhaps older and more avanced than the others you have mentioned

"The Mahabharata" is longest epic poem in the world. Originally 24 thousand verses, it slowly grew to 100 thousand. It's a collection of narratives telling the story of King Bharata and his descendants. A great war takes place between two lines of Bharata's descendents, the Brothers of 100 and Brothers of 5. Both clans claim to be the rightful heir to the throne.\n\nThe epic was written by several authors, although the work is traditionally attributed to Vyasa.\n\n"The Bhagavad Gita," although an independent work, takes place in the context of "The Mahabharata." It is a religious-philosophical dialectic between Krishna (God) and Arjuna (one of the 5 Brothers) that takes place before the first battle.

I believe that what God wanted Arjuna to do was to stand up for her rights, not to let people pull her down. It's a different concept of fighting that He means. :)

Hinduism does not follow any particular book, there is no book equivalent to the christian  bible or the islamic koran. But the bhagvadgita is a holy book, u should maybe read that but it isnt really about hinduism...But read it anyway, its a good thing to read and u will start to get an idea abt hinduism.

Valmiki\n\nfrom wiki -\nThe Ramayan is ascribed to a single author, Valmiki. Its exact date of creation is unknown, and is estimated to lie between the 4th and 2nd century B.C.E. "The Cultural Heritage of India", Vol. IV, "The Religions", The Ramakrishna Mission, Institute of Culture, says: "The first and the last Books of the Ramayan are later additions. The bulk, consisting of Books II--VI, represents Rama as an ideal hero. In Books I and VII, however Rama is made an avatara or incarnation of Vishnu, and the epic poem is transformed into a Vaishnav text. The reference to the Greeks, Parthians, and Sakas show that these Books cannot be earlier than the second century B.C.E..."
