/lit/ - Literature

Which was the last chapter of lipsi we've read along? 8?

Im looking for books on Sikhism, but i cant find anything good on it, and i feel like the primary texts might not be a good beginning for someone whose concept of God is more abrahamic than Dharmic.
Where to start?

yes

Hey /lit/, im looking for works that plead for emotion over rationality. Ive been reading some Nietzsche, and i found it refreshing that he's willing to shit on those who see man as a purely rational creature, while dismissing the emotional parts that make up man. But i feel like this part of N hasn't really been investigated all that much, because of filthy *nglo's with their fetish for logic and scientism, and also continental M*rxists and their stupid pseudo-science.

What books on this topic are a good start? Cna be contemporary or old, i dont care.

>Journey to the End of the Night
>My greatest secret is that despite outwardly being a well-adjusted person who is a supervisor of a biotech laboratory, makes quite a bit of money and has a gf, i spend most of my free time playing video games and posting on 4chan and generally being a fucking waste. It feels like my life is just a lie.
>I also think it's extremely funny to see girls get beaten up by animals, in particular elephants. It's not sexual or something sadistic, i just find it really funny.

I see that most of the arguments that are either for theism or against it all revolve around the necessity of a deity to cause the universe, but what i really wonder about is whether someone ever addresses why God would make this entire universe and then confine us, the ones he supposedly cares more about than anything else, to this one planet. Like the universe is extremely vast and hostile. What purpose does that serve?

What's one of the biggest "elephants in the room" that no one talks about regarding modern philosophy and literature, or hell, all of academia. A problem or issue that people just collectively ignore or try to work around, but really dont succeed.
For example: Adorno said that Spengler was forgotten by his contemporaries only because they couldnt deal with him, and that Spengler took his revenge by being right. Or another example: In mathematics, Gödel's incompleteness theorem decimated morale when it came out, and still hangs over every major mathematical problem like an Austrian autistic blade of Damocles.
