I was recently given a book by my significant other called The Meditator's Atlas: A Roadmap of the Inner World which, in short, is a modern-day technical analysis and synopsis of the Buddha's path to enlightenment, and an in-depth overview, isolation and examination of each step of the path, this all including the states attained during meditation, the insights reached, mindfulness, etc. I must say, this book has given me a wonderful referential scope for my own practice, and in fact I always take this book with me if I'm ever riding the train or bus anywhere. It is deeply profound and has impacted me almost as much as the Law of One has in terms of how well it functions as a guideline I can draw upon for assistance in my spiritual journey. The author is Matthew Flickstein, by the way. I highly recommend this book to any serious practitioners of meditation, even if you aren't, if you're seeking to work upon yourself, refine your being, and strive towards love/light, this book will be one of your greatest allies.
