Great topic, Carolyn. I'm 60 percent through the Maxwell Staniforth translation. It is incredible. I've nearly underlined every passage. I would recommend it for all. It serves well when seeking a basis for your daily meditation or looking for a quiet moment of retreat during the day. It is a great reminder too that many of the human experiences have remained rather constant 2000 years later. **One note - don't expect easy reading. Your mind will need to be fully engaged when reading through the passages.
