If you could recommend one book to take me from ignorance to Awakening, what would it be?
One single book. Something that says everything that needs to be said. Something that shows the plain and simple path to Awakening.
Edit for some background on me:
I have meditated about 2k hours, but I still consider myself a beginner.
I subscribe to Ingram's model of Awakening ie. 'this is it'.
I am open to any system, although Christianity is difficult for me because I struggle with belief in God. Still open to Christian practices though.
I want a single book because I want the teachings distilled down to one system of practice. I want something I can grab onto and say this will be my path.
If it contains both theory and practice that would be ideal.
Edit 2: Thanks all for your suggestions. You gave me a lot to look at. I am grateful for your help.
