[Etude in B Minor]

Yogananda wrote a couple of beautiful books (called the Second Coming of Christ) describing the life of Jesus from the view of esoteric Hinduism (much of which applies to Buddhism). It is well worth reading.

Also, there is a book on the Edgar Cayce readings called "a Commentary on the Revelation" which echoes much of what Yogananda says (basically that the revelation, as is the Bhaghavad Gita, is all about the struggle of man to overcome the senses, with a lot of connection to the chakras etc).

Reading the Cayce commentary followed by the Yogananda books is recommended.
