Publisher Comments:

This step-by-step guide to Insight Meditation is truly practical and direct. This new edition includes the complete text of its best selling predecessor and a new chapter on loving-kindness, an especially important subject in today's fractious world.

Synopsis:

With his distinctive clarity and wit, "Bhante G" takes us step by step through the myths, realities, and benefits of meditation and the practice of mindfulness. We already have the foundation we need to live a more productive and peaceful life — Bhante simply points to each tool of meditation, tells us what it does, and how to make it work. This expanded edition includes the complete text of its bestselling predecessor, as well as a new chapter on the cultivation of loving kindness, an especially important subject in today's world.

This book helped bring it all into perspective for me and move me along in a developmental process that had been stalled. It helped me slow down my expectations and helped me see that I am enough.

This excellent guide approaches vipassana meditation from a secular and psychological point of view. The writing is clear and strong; the information is illuminating and affirming. I have found it a wonderful support in letting go of ego and illusion.
