Synopsis:
Hagen, best selling author of Buddhism Plain and Simple and Buddhism is Not What You Think, offers this wonderfully accessible primer on meditation, which cuts right to the heart of the practice, stripping away any cultural or religious jargon. This unique focus on meditation looks at it not simply as a spiritual technique, but as a way of living. It also deals with: a 360 degree treatment, from newcomers' most basic concerns to the difficulties that entangle experienced meditators; essential (and often surprising) guidance on topics that other books rarely or never address; and an answer to why things commonly viewed as meditation aren't meditation at all; plus simple practices to help avoid needlessly complicating meditation; and a clear description of where most of us get stuck in meditation - and how to get unstuck.
"In practicing meditation, we go nowhere other than right here where we now stand, where we now sit, where we now live and breathe. In meditation we return to where we already are - this shifting, ever-changing ever-present now. If you wish to take up meditation, it must be now or never." Steve Hagen.
"For the beginner, a lucid, no-frills introduction to Buddhist meditation. For the practitioner, a timely reminder of what meditation is all about." Stephen Batchelor.
"Clean and clear as a mountain strem. I wish I had found such a book when I began meditating." Stephen Levine. |
