A Practical Guide to Buddhist
Meditation
In Joyful Mind, a variety of
Buddhist meditation styles are presented, each by a respected
teacher. The practices they offer are grounded in traditions
that are thousands of years old.
If you were to visit monasteries in
India, Tibet, Japan, or Burma, these are the teachings you would
receive. As a bonus, we've also included yoga instruction to
prepare the body for sitting.
In addition to the written
teachings, Joyful Mind offers the opportunity to actually
sample the practices directly. On the first compact disc in this
book, each teacher guides you through the practice they've
written about. The second is a music-only disc featuring
contemplative flute music perfect for relaxation and
contemplation.
May these practices be of benefit.
