I always find it interesting learning about other culture's gods. The Thought is spot on, especially in today's world.

Great trip!

Thanks! Very glad you enjoyed it. Different religions and beliefs have been an interest of mine for a long time ... and yes, I thought the Thought was rather apropos!

I likely have copies of Bhagavadgītā and the Epic of Gilgamesh stashed somewhere from college. The UNC system had an obsession with those books in the 90s...

I read my copy in a Hinduism class in - probably - 89/90? The book I mentioned is a dual language translation - one page is in Sanskrit with the facing page in English. Not that that means anything as I have no understanding at all of Sanskrit ... but it looks cool! I'm just embarrassed by the fact the book's always been on my shelf wherever I've lived since then, but I haven't picked it up until recently. So many things to read - much less re-read - and time is flying!
