Unfortuntately I don't have access to a Buddhist Centre or a good teacher at the moment, but I'm getting lots of good tips here with regard to what to read to start me off.

Don't worry Aasha. Try to keep in touch with the Thai Forest Tradition writings. IMO, they do not demand obedience to a Guru or an attachment toward a Tradition or to be stressed about being into a Sangha, as others do in their books. And that is good if, as many people on earth, do not have a "good" tradition to practice with. Also here, you can get some good guidance from some skilled forum members.
