‘Those desirous of worldly enjoyment and those desirous of liberation, both are found in this world. But rare indeed is the great-souled one who is not desirous of either enjoyment or liberation.’ - Astavakra Samhita XVII-5 Absolute sublime wisdom. 🙏🏻🙏🏻

One of the Principal texts of Advaita Vedanta (Non-dualism). One of the few texts that the great sage Ramana Maharshi himself recommended to one and all. Absolutely sublime!! thank you Lewis! What a treat.

Nice! That’s one of the books I recommended! I don’t think I recomeded this one in the Patreon. It was in another comment I think. The translation of the one I have is called the Astavakra Samhita by swami Nityaswarupanada. If your into Hindu texts, I have all the major works translated into English, including the a vast portions of Jain holy texts… and almost the entire Pali canon of the Tripitaka… the translation isn’t done yet. I can give you a list of these. It was a very long time of research. I prefer the source material over the Neo, new age books. Second hand sources I only acquire in brief unless the new age source is considered absolutely essential. I wasn’t a fan of Ramana Maharishi cus his movement is a fallacy. So I have none of his works.
