Anyone got a chart for medieval knight tales, or of the Arthurian Legend?

>> No.13093165

idiots will fall for this, not realising the chart is turned on its head.

No, but I'm currently reading Le Morte Darthur and its really fun, but a bit repetitive

Not a good recommendation in my opinion.
It makes sense that people, not knowing how to apply the teachings, would begin to look for subsidiary texts for help, but modern analogues should be avoided (outside of a purely interpretative mode).
If one is looking for a manual to guide one, then the Visuddhimagga, Path of Purification, of 5th century Sri Lanka, achieves the aim while remaining true to spirit.

>> No.13093325

>>13093303
Visuddhimagga is pretty controversial for the simple fact that it's Theravadin and that bits of it are inconsistent with the suttas.

>> No.13093363

>>13093325
Controversy as controversy is unimportant. There is controversy about everything. That it may or not may be consistent with Suttas, as determined by analysts, is not as weighty as whether it focuses the teaching into a guide aimed at the same end.

desu in the last Buddhism chart before that one the Visuddhimagga was included and I remember people calling it trash because of Theravada bias, so I think it's fair
suttas are pretty direct and clear anyways

The pre-readings were recommendations by anon.

The first few readings are the most important, and in order.

The Welsh texts are more 'true' to the source.

The Alliterative Morte was a high recommend, but not necessary.

The rest is unsorted additions.
