The term "meditation" is often spoke of as a single, uniform practice but in fact there are innumerable techniques that can be employed to achieve different ends. However, to make real progress in any of them, the methods need to be paired with a view of how our minds and our experience of the world around us really work.
In this uncommonly practical and experiential guide, Phakchok Rinpoche leads us through how to achieve this correct view and really practice a meditation that can transform our lives, help us abandon our own bad habits and hypocrisy, and make real progress on the path to true freedom from the circles we follow that only lead to unhappiness. Grounding this presentation is The King of Samadhi Sutra – one of the most important in the Mahayana Buddhist tradition – which the author employs as a touchstone throughout. The simplicity will appeal to new and aspiring meditators, while the insightful approach based on living these practices will help seasoned practitioners get unstuck and make swift progress.
