You start with Adi Shankara, his commentaries are phenomenal. He has a wonderfully lucid mind, I have not found anyone else who is able to explain it on quite the same level. I recommend beginning with his Upanishad commentaires some of which can be read below.

If you felt like you dont understand his writing or didnt know a lot of the words than just read an intro to Hindu philosophy/Vedanta book such as any of the ones below and it will make sense

Also, I'd recommend the Ashtavakra Gita as a quick TLDR read which can be understood without first reading any introductory books

You posted one of the only genuine teachers out there, so start there. Gurdjieff is also good.
