This week Phyllis returns to discuss the differences between Western thinking and Eastern thinking. Her knowledge really is astounding.
Unfortunately, the recording equipment really doesn't like the Agnes-Phyllis connection as this week's episode is a bit problematic too, but like last week, it's so worth listening through.
Phyllis mentions valuable readings to get a better understanding of the "knowledge" that exists, especially in Eastern thinking. Her reading list is below:
The Upanshads – Eknath Easwaran The Upanishads have been translated by many however this particular author is one of the clearest, and so his edition is being suggest.
Mahabharata – A story of a war – Shrila Vyasadeva, summarized by Purnaprajna das.
Bhagavad-Gita As It Is – Swami Prabupada. This is available through the Bhaktivedanta Book Trust.
The Yoga Sutras of Patanjali – Patanjali This book describes the base of Yoga.
Human Devolution a Vedic alternative to Darwin’s Theory. Michael A. Cremo Something to seriously consider

These are two specific books, other are also available.
The Gospel of Thomas – Hidden sayings of Jesus – Harold Bloom.
The NAG Hammadi Scriptures – Edited by Marvin Meyer. Originally discovered in 1945. A compete collection of the scrolls, but it is not an easy read.
