Here are the two most amusing books Discordianism has to offer; The Principia Discordia describes and outlines the religion, and The Black Iron Prison describes the prison of 'self' in which all organisms necessarily exist.
These books and more can also be found at principiadiscordia.com. If you have any material you'd like to post here, please do!
Also connect to UnderNet through IRC and join the #bookz channel to find shitloads of books.

Hakagure
English: Hidden beneath the leaves
Recommended by a Cabbage
Hagakure is the essential book of the Samurai. Written by Yamamoto Tsunetomo, who was a Samurai in the early 1700s, it is a book that combines the teachings of both Zen and Confucianism. These philosophies are centered on loyalty, devotion, purity and selflessness, and Yamamoto places a strong emphasis on the notion of living in the present moment with a strong and clear mind.

A quick announcement:
I got the keys to ownership of /eris/ this morning. The rules are the same, there really aren't any. Off-topic inflammatory shit will be spoilered but not deleted unless it's trying to actually break the thread with crapfloods (in which case I may edit it, or may delete it). Blatant spam (crossposted to multiple boards and irrelevant) is the one thing that will get deleted and carry a ban. NO FUCKING BROWNPILLS.

Correct. Banners currently cannot be added, deleted, or even viewed by the board owner (as a list, we see one at a time like everyone else). Hotwheels broke it during an update a few weeks back, and for a while we had no banners at all. Now they're back, but for display only. Administrative functions are still down.

If you didn't want people to identify themselves in some way, you should have used forced anonymity. I choose to use an identifier. The tripcode is because I host events and have a prominent role on a development team, both of which mean I could be significantly harmed by an impersonator.
If you really owned /eris/ and have been participating, why the fuck didn't you log into the Dashboard to handle the brownpill spam? Either you're just blowing smoke out of your ass, or you were an incompetent moderator. I wouldn't have claimed the board if it were being competently moderated – which in this case means "as little as possible".
You had one job.

I only took control because ownership lapsed and there was Brownpill spam to clean up. I intend to let ownership lapse again, so be watching the expiration lists if you want to take it. (I will log in, whether we've made expiration list or not, if there is spam to shitcan.)

The principles described in the book can (and should) be applied to the book itself (and every other book that has ever been written or ever will, and every single group of ideas you will ever encounter, including the ones already in your head). There is some laughable bullshit in the book, but the basic concepts are sound, and I suspect some of the laughable bullshit may have been placed there purposely to see if you were paying attention.

Central planning is for greyfaces. If you're really upset about exploitation which is much, much more of a problem in third world countries anyway, no one's stopping you from creating a worker owned co-op.
