Hello there

Welcome Aboard!
This offering maybe right, or wrong, but it is one, the other, both, or neither!

Greetings Caz,
Welcome to Dhamma Wheel.
Of the two books you've purchased,
definitely start with In The Buddha's Words.
Metta,
Retro.
If you have asked me of the origination of unease, then I shall explain it to you in accordance with my understanding:
Whatever various forms of unease there are in the world, They originate founded in encumbering accumulation. (Pārāyanavagga)'We should not congratulate someone on the success of their misdeeds, but on the contrary should endeavour to advise him or her to lead a more skilful and wholesome life. If such advice is ignored then we can only give up and let go' - Phra PanyapatipoDharma Wheel (Mahayana / Vajrayana forum)
