By popular demand (3 or 4 people) I’ve added this page, it was originally an email but it can stay here for hower long needed.
These are many sites that I have learned from and continue to learn from. I usually sit for atleast 20 minutes before and/or after any study session. This is just to make sure I continue to meditate and not get lost in the world of philosophical Buddhism. But do what works for you

And what, monks, is the Middle Way realized by the Thus-Come-One, which gives vision and understanding, which leads to calm, penetration, enlightenment, to Nirvana?
It is just this Noble Eightfold Path, namely: Right View, Right Intention, Right Speech, Right Action, Right Livelihood, Right Effort, Right Mindfulness, and Right Concentration. – The Buddha, Dhammacakkappavattana Sutta
