Bhagavad Gita.

I found it on Gutenberg, where you can read it online for free. Thanks for the recommendation!

The Project Gutenberg E-text of The Bhagavad-Gita

Right now, another Gutenberg book I am reading is the Tao Te Ching (the central text of Taoism, also called Daoism) – really a compilation of texts written between late 4th and 3rd centuries BCE. Traditionally, it is attributed to the philosopher Lao-Tse.

The Tao Teh King, by Lao-tse

I have been meaning to look into the Tao Te Ching for, like, the longest time! For several years now I've been gravitating hard towards Eastern wisdom (mainly Hinduism) as my own culture is sorely failing to provide what I seek. Around here it's way too much emphasis on material gain and "winning" at the expense of your fellow man. I don't fuck with that, personally. I want to nourish my spirit, not hoard transient so-called riches. But yeah, I have little experience with Chinese philosophers, definitely an area I want to look into. Thank you! You're a beautiful being.
