Reddit mentions: The best vedas books

Welcome to the club! People come to the occult, to mysticism, because "regular" life is insufficient. It doesn't explain what we are. It doesn't include a "why". My recommendation for your first book to read is the Tao Te Ching. I recommend this translation, by Victor Mair:
https://www.amazon.com/Tao-Te-Ching-Classic-Integrity/dp/055334935X

Here's how his translation begins:

>The person of superior integrity

>>does not insist upon his integrity;

>For this reason, he has integrity.

>The person of inferior integrity

>>never loses sight of his integrity;

>For this reason, he lacks integrity.

    

>The person of superior integrity takes no action,

>>nor has he a purpose for acting.

>The person of superior humaneness takes action,

>>but has no purpose for acting.

>The person of superior righteousness takes action,

>>and has a purpose for acting.

>The person of superior etiquette takes action,

>>but others do not respond to him;

>Whereupon he rolls up his sleeves and coerces them.

I would recommend this one by Victor Mair, a respected Sinologist. His commentary is illuminating, and you will see how some of these apparent paradoxes are resolved.

"In 1990, the noted sinologist Victor H. Mair translated the Ma-wang-tui version as he considered this earliest known version (by 500 years) to be far more authentic than the most commonly translated texts."

It seems a little weird to want to buy books to try and discredit some random person online who will forget all about this conversation in a couple of days, but sure, whatever.

Nag Hammadi Scriptures

Dhammapada

Upanishads

Baghavad Gita

Mahabharata

And this volume of the Vedas, though as I said I haven't read through it yet.

I also have this copy of the Tibetan Book of the Dead, which I haven't gotten around to yet.

Now, once again, please tell me where in the Nag Hammadi scriptures it says that you spend 1000 years in a Devachan before reincarnating.
