Interesting that the immediate reaction to my comment that it is important to have a good experienced guide is met with

as if I was promoting a particular sect. I'm not.

No one has said that you were.
The irony is of course that while a few people on this thread have dissed this, they are actively giving guidance to someone who has never met them, and who has no idea what they are really like, and are expecting the poster to trust them over meeting and assessing a person in real life. interesting. Caveat Emptor applies here as anywhere else one might go on the internet.

No one has claimed to be a teacher here.

The Buddha suggested that one associate with kalyana mitta, friends in the Dhamma.

The folks who answer the OP's inquiry are uniquely qualified to answer the OP according to our experience, by virtue of the fact that we are are the ones who were asked.
