This book is not just a guide to buddhist meditation

Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

It was clearly laid out in a logical structure all points were explained well and thankfully there was a lack of diving overboard with philosophical theory not what buddhism should be about and steered clear of any type of new ageyness and from some buddhist concepts reincarnation etc that some westerners might not agree with

In deed the zen like character of the teaching as to how to meditate makes it trully engaging

Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

But some of them seem too full of the particular brand of buddhism they come from so much so that one almost fells as if to meditated one has to become tibetan or chinnese

Paramananda puts the practice into words in an accessible way where most authors fail to do so

He had the mind of a true buddhist this book is about ideas and mentalities instead of rigid practice he reminds the reader that there is no one approach to buddhism and that frankly if your approach isnt personalized its not right
