The
Book : On the Taboo Against Knowing Who You Are
by Alan Watts
Modern Western culture and technology

of a self as a separate ego, separated from and
in conflict with the rest of the world. In this
classic book, Watts provides a lucid and simple
presentation of an alternative view based on Hindi
and Vedantic philosophy (Amazon.com) |

The
Prophet
by Khalil Gibran
In a distant, timeless place,

each asks a question of the heart, and the man's
wisdom is his gift (Amazon.com) |
