Just finished On the Warrior's Path and want to reread it again soon it was so good.

I have to agree, and thank Daniele for his writing. Whenever I'm in a tough spot I'll take out On The Warrior's Path and 9 times out of 10 I can find some reminder of where I want to be. While I'd like to get to a point where I can effortlessly glide through life in the present; I think this book is packed with inspiration and invaluable life lessons that can be applied to many different situations.

Inspiration is like bathing, its effective, but only for a short period of time - that's why we recommend it every day

^^ This sums it up nicely, and is the same reason I like listening to podcasts, reading, and watching lectures of people who have achieved excellence in whatever their respective pursuit is.

Thanks Daniele, the pages of ONTWP have so much useful content; I wish more people would read it and absorb it's sentiment.

PS: I have no shame in butt-licking, it's justified.

Reading “the science delusion” by rupert sheldrake. Almost finished now. Find him to be most important/interesting heretic alive today. Would love him on podcast - problematic though since he is based in London

I like reading multiple books at once. I read a section/chapter of a book, think about it a bit, ask myself questions, research shit if I'm still thinking about it after a while, then move on to next part of the book.

Create Your Own Religion is a book that I will always appreciate. Just the way Daniele picked apart Christianity alone makes it a good read (I sometimes wondered if it was a modern version of Nietzsche's “The Antichrist”, although I have not read it yet so I do not know). I particularly liked his advice later in the book on what would make a good religion (like fucking laughter).

Right now I am almost done reading The Fighter's Mind which I cannot recommend enough. Next I am starting Sam's recent book The Disaster Diaries to complete the Sam Sheridan trilogy. One of my favorite writer's.

Just finished “Flow My Tears the Policeman Said” by Phillip K Dick after I finished “The Three Stigmata of Palmer Eldrich”. I was reading “The Exegesis of Phillip K Dick”, one of the most mind bending things I've ever read, but about halfway through I realized I wouldn't understand it fully unless I went back and read some of his works he's always mentioning in “Exegesis”. In “Exegesis” he speculates how his novels were “transmitted” to him by a higher power he refers to as “VALIS - Vast Active Living Information System”, some sort of transdimensional intelligence that communicates telepathically with select people. Far out stuff. I'm about to read “Ubik” and will probably be about to lose it after reading three PKD novels in a row, but it'll be a delightful journey into madness.

Too funny! I just picked up “Flow My Tears” last week and was planning on starting it tonight. I love PKD! I have read a handful of his books, UBIK is great! I read “The Man in the High Castle” a few weeks ago, and I would highly recommend that one. PKD is a trip, I love his writing.

Me too!Right now I am reading The Disaster Diaries by Sam Sheridan,
Amped by Daniel H. Wilson and People of the Wolf by W.Michael Gear and Kathleen O'Neal Gear. Next on the list is The Emerald Tablets of Thoth, Tao of Jeet Kune Do by Bruce Lee and going to re-read The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho and Willpower by Roy F. Baumeister and John Tierney. So much reading, so little time. Damn work.

Just finished Blood Meridian
-Amazing, completely brutal account of a group of scalp hunters in 1849.

Currently working my way through the dark tower series and I'm up to the last book ‘the dark tower’ I haven't been able to get into it because I don't want the story to end. It is IMO king's best books. I've loved every second I've spent reading it.
