The first spiritual text I read, and it provided me with a good foundation for spiritual liberation along with Adyashanti's books 'Emptiness Dancing' and 'The End of Your World'.
The one that helped me the most, though, was probably 'Ordinary Freedom' by Jon Bernie (his other book, 'The Unbelievable Happiness of What Is' is also very good), whose compassionate, wise teachings I stumbled across at a very difficult and painful time in my life and which I'd highly recommend to anyone else who's having a hard time coming to terms with grief, loss, intense fear, or any other sort of emotional upheaval.
