Default Older Texts Expanding on Conversations With God?

Hi,
Has anyone read the Conversations with God series? He talks with good understanding of older texts from what I can tell, what do you think lines up closest to the ideas he tries to convey in his books? Taoism? Buddhism?

If I wanted more readily available external assistance in understanding oneness, time as non existent but now, self awareness, where can I read more, preferably older accounts?

Take care,
Chad.

His ideas are loosely based on Buddhism. But not exclusively. I liked his movie more than the book, as it was well made and very powerful. If you wish to learn more, there are venues such as Gnostic books, the kabbala, theosophy etc, ideally you should do all and select the ideas that you find reasonable.
I call these ideas the Ancient Wisdom and I publish books that incorporate the Ancient Wisdom somehow. [Not all my books are esoteric and some have nothing to do with this subject.]
The BEST, free, online source of older texts is the Internet Sacred Text Archive Home
