First go to Bacon and Hume so you know what to refute

Then proceed to Parmenadies and Heraclitus

If you want a serious recommendation I highly recommend Copleston's Greek Philosophy from the Pre-Socratics to Plotinus to get you started. Or just start watching this

If you need a primer, consider "The Dancing Wu-Li Masters" by Gary Zukav.
"The Seat Of The Soul", mentioned on the cover image, is also a good one.
