I find myself more and more attracted to blending Vajrayana, Zen, and general Mahayana, but I can't find much at all on Vajrayana other than the Tibetan Book of the Dead, and a lot of the Dalai Lamas books. I plan on reading both of these, but does anybody have some recommendations on good books on Tibetan Buddhism other than the TBOTD and the Dalai Lama's books?

Thich Nhat Hanh is my favorite because he presents the more complex ideas in ways that are easiest for a young westerner to understand. biggrin

I just got "For a Future to be Possible", "The Miracle of Mindfulness", & "Love in Action", all by Thich Nhat Hanh for Christmas. I was wondering if someone who's read more Hanh than I have(The only other Hanh books I've read are Living Buddha, Living Christ, Zen Keys, & Being Peace), could give me a recomendation of which I should read first (or if it even matters).
