The thoughts arranged by theme
Six questions, and what the ancient Indian corpora say about them — sometimes contradicting one another.
The same theme gets a different answer depending on which text you open. The Dhammapada treats anger as a fire to be put out; Chanakya, a political adviser, treats it as information about your opponent. These pages keep the disagreements rather than smoothing them over.
