Meditations every day of the week. I'm not saying it's better, but I need the message to be clear and direct. 

[Ramanujan]

Taoism and wuwei are so amazing. Better than meditation

By the way it might be foolish to compare two philosophy as I myself don't know which book is better that is why I wrote in the post according to you.

[Ramanujan]

Only suckers would vote for meditation

[Realms of Wonder]

Why does it matter? 

[CARDOZZO]

What is the nature of better?

[UnbornTao]

Meditations seems to be more practical while the Tao more existential.

The weirdest damn thing, I have had the name Marcus Aurelius bouncing around in my brain for the last couple of months for no discernible reason, until now.

 

So, of course, I voted for him.  I'm not sure I would agree with Lao Tzu musings.

@Ramanujan I have read Meditations 2 times and it was great. Only I have not read Tao Te Ching fully.

@CARDOZZO better means written in a more practical manner according to individual people.

[Ramanujan]

@Rishabh R stoicism is hyped up

 

Taoism and wuwei are so amazing

[Rishabh R]

@Ramanujan but if you read the original works of Marcus Aurelius , Seneca etc. it provides great insights.
