Why would that be necessary? The books you've listed above took years, maybe even decades to complete - why would it be necessary for me to spend multiple years of my life to 'show I seriously studied' something that's not necessary at all just to have an informal discussion with a monk?
The discussion will happens with an audience. If you do that you'll show you did a serious study of this religion.
It just an advice from me but I admit it can be unuseful for this situation.
