Ask HN: Meditation resources?

The best teacher bar none in my opinion is Shinzen Young. He is completely secular, has decades of experience, and has developed an in-depth methodology informed by science and logical systematization. He's all substance and has no fluff and no woo-woo BS about how your chakras aren't aligned.

This sounds perfect. I only saw 3 books listed - catered to pain management (not really an issue), but a lot of audio CDs. Any suggestion as to the best place to start?

The Science of Enlightenment is a pretty good intro CD. His YouTube videos are great (I've watched all of them) and he also has a home study course you can use. The URL is:
