Resource list.

Hey everyone, I thought it would be useful to share books and resources on Buddhism just as a way to help people learn more. So feel free to use this thread to post books, website links, videos, or whatever you'd like that you think would make a good resource.

The first link is to a Buddhist forum that is full of some really good and compassionate people that have helped me a lot and answered a lot of my questions: http://www.buddhismwithoutboundaries.com/

The next is a book, I'm reading through. It's called "In the Buddha's Words" it is excerpts from the Pali cannon complete with commentary.

The final is a book called "Good Question, Good Answer." It was written by a professor in Thailand(I think), but is very accessible to answering basic questions about Buddhism. It can be read at Buddha.net, which is a great place for information. Link: http://www.buddhismwithoutboundaries.com/
