Synopsis:
A practical guide to meditation based on talks given at several intensive retreats. Goldstein and Kornfield present the central teachings and practices of insight meditation in a clear and personal language. The path of insight meditation is a journey of understanding our minds, our bodies, and our lives, of seeing clearly the true nature of experience. The authors guide the reader in developing the openness and compassion that are at the heart of this spiritual practice.
Among the topics covered are: the hindrances to meditation - ranging from doubt and fear to painful knees - and skillful means of overcoming them; how compassion can arise in response to the suffering we see in our lives and in the world; and how to integrate a life of responsible action and service with a meditative life based on non-attachment. Useful exercise are presented alongside the teachings to help readers deepen their understanding of the subjects.
"One of the most useful manuals ever written for those who seek to follow the path of insight meditation and to make it relevant to their daily lives. A skillful blend of pragmatic instruction, psychological insight, and perennial wisdom." Daniel Goleman. |
