I'm looking for an outline of the practices going from beginner to jhana or streamentry I'm looking for something similar to this little book, The
Basic

of
Meditation (10~20 pages) from Ajahn Brahm.

A Study Guide on the First Stage of Awakening
OR
Buddhism Course by Chan Khoon San (take about 12 hours to read and give you a good idea about the teaching)
