I've been meditating for twenty years, not making all that much progress and never quite sure what it was I was getting wrong.
This is the book I wish I've been meditating for twenty years, not making all that much progress and never quite sure what it was I was getting wrong.
This is the book I wish I'd had twenty years ago. I finally *got* it - what meditation is, what it isn't, what I was doing right, what I was doing wrong, all of it.
The author has done a superb job of writing a readable, engaging text; of spelling out exactly what the misconceptions and pitfalls are; of giving useful advice on how to avoid the mistakes; and of what you should and shouldn't expect as you progress.
I read it through from cover to cover to get the "Big Picture" and am now re-reading from the start to pick up on the details. I genuinely feel I've made more progress in the handful of days since reading this than I did in all the years before. For the first time, I'm confident that I'm making progress and will continue to do so.
Rave reviews all around, for me this is *the* book on learning to meditate....more
