Greeting /lit/izens
I come to you today with an urgent plea for advice.

I am setting forth in a couple of weeks towards India and would like to take with me Marcus Aurelius' Meditations as a companion book,
which of the many translations and publications is considered the best by you fine gents?
>>
Definitely Gregory Hays

Most recent
>>
why would you take that to india? are you going to an ashram to find yourself, but need someone else to tell you how to live?
>>

shouldnt you take a copy of the dhammarammadingdong or siddhartha instead of ancient pizza philosophy?

Get Pierre Hadot "The Inner Citadel" as a companion book, it is a really deep explanation
>>
>>9746284
I remember seeing a comparison between that one and an older translation which made it look very simplistic and indescriptive
>>9746286
We are all one inside the harmony of the universe
>>9746364
I will also take a copy of the Mahabharata with me although that is unrelated
>>9746369
I don't read chinese
>>9746284
I want to read the actual text before I go to elaborations and interpretations

>We are all one inside the harmony of the universe
But why learn about stoicism when you're in India? Learn about Hinduism since you're going nigga, shit's interesting.
>>
>>9747022
have you been to iquitos my man
>>
>>9746276
stoics are cucks
read the prince instead
>>
>>9747494
I flew into there to get to some tiny village in the amazon, was pretty cool
>>
>>9747507
thats what i was referring to m8 - the ceremonies made you want to take a trip to india, or you meet people who had gone to india in the jungle?

i went to iquitos a few years ago and also have a long trip to india planned...
