man, where do they get so much shit?

>>19669745
I had recommendations but given your OP I don't think this thread was made in good faith.

>Sanskrit

>>19669763
Yeah, I feel the same way about you. I just don't think advanced philosophical Sanskrit texts exist.
The only way to prove me wrong would be to post the texts and some excerpt from them.

>>19669745
Why would a racist piece of shit like you be interested in learning Sanskrit?

>>19669778
You'll have to ask someone versed in Sanskrit for that. My readings are much more contemporary.

>>19669797
Is this a serious question?
You wonder why a white nationalist would be interested in an ancient Indo-Aryan language?

I see there are no examples of good south asian /lit/
Philosophy really did peak with the Greeks.
Fuck off.

Read Bhagavad Gita and Mahabharata.
Technically though Gita is a part of Mahabharata. It's pretty interesting.

>>19669756
they save it for future

good morning broder

>>19669745
There was some anon who posted the >start with the jeets chart, it looked decent enough. meanwhile start with the Bhagavad-gītā I guess.
Also, what made the people from India go from one of the best and enlighten cultures to the cesspool that is today.

The British. It literally was the British and no amount of "we were actually good for India" cope will change that.

>>19670527
Lmao, India hadn’t been philosophically important since like 1100-1200 AD. What fucking cope.

>>19670527
Damn right.

Delusions and excuses for a failing set of countries. You have no one to blane but yourself and I still don’t see any books outside of maybe the vedas and one epic, the mahabharata posted yet

>>19671198
Add muslims to that argument as well who basically destroyed all the ancient universities.

Most of the useful culture of South Asia came from Muslims. From architecture to writing to fashion to music to food. Before Mughals real original Indians were little more than savage tribal incredibly dark people with weird piercings.

>universities
cringe at every nonwhite that uses this word

>>19670839

>>19672542
That’s brutal. There’s like 15 universities in a subcontinent the size of europe? Any small nation even like Serbia will have at least twice that.

>>19673097
Those are ancient ones.

I live in India. How come I've never seen this before?

>>19673175
Slick lie Pajeet. We know you eat poo.

>>19674085
No anon, you are mistaken.

>>19672586
Nice bait Abdul but Mughals were only involved in art and architecture while Hindu kings before them promoted both art and science. The golden age of India was during Gupta empire in which science, mathematics and ideas flourished which Arab traders took from them and now flaunt them as their own achievements.

>>19674302
Nice try hardeep, but Indians haven’t had decent civilizations since the vedas were written

>>19674926
Your people were still wild savages during Gupta empire faggot.
Yes the Europe did become the peak of human civilization later but Indian subcontinent had already gone through that centuries ago.
Though Europe is now overrun by mudslime savages again.

>>19675398
Good one Vikram. You still talk funny and you smell bad.

>>19675398
Very funny hardeep. Surely you’d be able to point me towards the Indian Socrates, Plato, and Aristotle with ease then?
Oh wait, they never existed.
