Hi all,
I've been getting into secular Buddhism recently but am a bit overwhelmed but the volume of Buddhist literature and variety of traditions out there. I've learned a lot from the Secular Buddhist podcast done by this dude (The Secular Buddhist :: Home) but quickly feel out of my depth when they start referring to texts.
Can anyone recommend books they found useful when starting out? Ideally I'd like to be able to skip over the more supernatural aspects of Buddhism and focus on the practical side of the four noble truths and eightfold path and their subtleties.
Thanks
