Yates, Culadasa John: Handbook of Meditation

The universal standard work on meditation.

Meditation is the royal road to awakening. It allows us to reach deeper and deeper states of bliss, peace and insight with increasing practice, ultimately culminating in final and lasting liberation from suffering.
In this universal guide to meditation, meditation teacher and PhD neuroscientist Culadasa John Yates shows us how to deepen our practice step by step. Unique in its depth of experience and wealth of knowledge about the stages of meditation, the manual allows both beginners and experienced meditators to overcome common obstacles and problems - such as mind wandering, inattentiveness or boredom - by explaining the causes and presenting easy-to-understand solutions. Current neuroscientific findings are also used here. This new standard work on meditation uses many exercises and examples to guide you to enlightened dimensions of consciousness.
