Philosophy: Discipline of The Disciplines Book

Had to stop reading this one because of two reasons:
1. the book is darn boring. I don't enjoy the style of writing from the author in the introduction, explanation and conclusion of the original texts.
2. the original texts themselves are boring. Don't get me wrong. I do appreciate and admire their fervent search for knowledge, but their justification and writings are just simply too abstract, far-fetch, and meaningless to me.

For now, I'm reading more into mindfulness and meditation. My guts and experience tell me it's a better gateway to a meaningful life than some these philosophical teachings (especially the metaphysics and epistemology branches).
