Art of Meditation

Art of Meditation
Art of Meditation

A clear, compassionate path into meditation

This is a lovely pick if you want meditation explained without mystique or fluff. Ricard writes with the calm authority of someone who has truly lived the practice, so the book feels both grounded and quietly uplifting. Readers who want spiritual depth alongside practical guidance will likely find it reassuring, lucid, and genuinely transformative.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Description

Wherever he goes, Buddhist monk Matthieu Ricard is asked to explain what meditation is, how it is done and what it can achieve. In this authoritative and inspiring book, he sets out to answer these questions. Matthieu Ricard shows that practising meditation can change our understanding of ourselves and the world around us. He talks us through its theory, spirituality and practical aspects of deep contemplation and illustrates each stage of his teaching with examples. Through his experience as a monk, his close reading of sacred texts and his deep knowledge of the Buddhist masters, Matthieu Ricard reveals the significant benefits that meditation - based on selfless love and compassion - can bring to each of us.
