I like the simplicity of the way it was written; not flowery, direct to the point. Recommended on the website of the Ekoji Buddhist Temple, http://www.ekoji.org/ . "When the mind is opened and the heart is softened, something begins to function that liberates one from the restricted world of the deluded mind." (pg. xii) "Being alert, observing the movements of the mind and body in daily life, noticing what is taking place -- as opposed to what one wishes would take place, or what one fears might take place, or what one grieves over as having already taken place -- is a way of life that is completely free of all self-imposed restrictions and conflicting states of mind. Wisdom and compassion will be allowed to function freely under these circumstances." (77) nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
A Tricycle BookBuddhist meditation originated when the Buddha "sat alone, accompanied merely by his own deep honesty and awareness, and refused to move until the barriers to truth were shattered." Only by focusing his attention inward, being unmoved by the stimuli of the outside world, was he able to achieve enlightenment. In this simple guide to meditation, Diana St. Ruth gives an overview of this ancient practice, likening it to "waking up as if from a dream." She explains specific techniques, such as counting breaths and walking meditation, in addition to providing helpful illustrations of postures and sitting styles. Throughout she reinforces the belief that with the regular practice of Buddhist meditation a person can come to know "the way of liberation from suffering and the realization of genuine happiness."
