Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pioneered by spiritual master Eknath Easwaran, passage meditation consists of memorizing an inspirational spiritual passage and then sending it deep into consciousness through slow, sustained attention. It keeps meditation fresh and varied because readers can select the passages - from one tradition or many - that embody their chosen ideals. Many readers also enjoy the passages for their poetic and intellectual appeal. This form of meditation offers all the richness and depth of traditional wisdom, together with a practical method for bringing that wisdom into daily life. The book situates passage meditation as part of Easwaran's eight-point program that, based on traditional spiritual practices but adjusted for modern lifestyles, shows readers how to stay calm and focused at work and home. This edition includes a new preface of previously unpublished material by Easwaran and an epilogue that explains the story behind the book and invites new readers to join the author on this adventure in the ''world within.''

This book was released on 2019-10-10 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What are you looking for in life? I don't mean on a superficial level but deep down. I expect most people would say happiness, but I believe this is not what we should be setting our sights on. Happiness is extremely short lived. One minute we are happy and the next we are wondering why the world is treating us so badly. So, what should we be looking for? I believe we should be aiming for peace of mind. A mind that is open, calm, focused and able to deal with whatever life throws at it. In OPEN AWARENESS OPEN MIND, Karma Yeshe Rabgye skilfully guides you through various meditation and mindfulness practices that help you to gradually take back control of your life, leaving you with a mind that is at peace. "This book offers a clear and practical path to lead us in more peaceful and meaningful directions in our lives.'" Stan B. Martin, Author of 'Illusions on the Path' "With his elegant writing, Yeshe Rabgye invites the reader to begin to understand their mind and themselves with down-to-earth guidance. The human experience is complicated, and Yeshe brings helpful ideas home by making them accessible with real-world examples, practices and reflections. Experienced meditators will find new ways to explore and question old ideas, refreshing their practice and opening new layers of understanding." Ted Meissner - Founder of Secular Buddhist Association "As he consistently does so well, Karma Yeshe Rabgye offers powerful ancient teachings in a way that is intensely pragmatic and insightful. Open Awareness Open Mind is full of stories, practices and explanations that will surely leave an impact on the reader." Matthew Sockolov - One Mind Dharma and Author of 'A Mindfulness for Beginners Journal'
Book Synopsis Meditation for Fidgety Skeptics by : Dan Harris
Download or read book Meditation for Fidgety Skeptics written by Dan Harris and published by Harmony. This book was released on 2017-12-26 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER FROM THE AUTHOR OF 10% HAPPIER Too busy to meditate? Can’t turn off your brain? Curious about mindfulness but more comfortable in the gym? This book is for you. You’ll also get access to guided audio meditations on the 10% Happier app, to jumpstart your practice from day one. ABC News anchor Dan Harris used to think that meditation was for people who collect crystals, play Ultimate Frisbee, and use the word “namaste” without irony. After he had a panic attack on live television, he went on a strange and circuitous journey that ultimately led him to become one of meditation’s most vocal public proponents. Harris found that meditation made him more focused and less yanked around by his emotions. According to his wife, it also made him less annoying. Science suggests that the practice can lower your blood pressure, mitigate depression and anxiety, and literally rewire key parts of the brain. So what’s holding you back? In Meditation for Fidgety Skeptics, Harris and Jeff Warren, a masterful teacher and “Meditation MacGyver,” embark on a gonzo cross-country quest to tackle the myths, misconceptions, and self-deceptions that keep people from meditating. It is filled with game-changing and deeply practical meditation instructions—all of which are also available (for free) on the 10% Happier app. This book is a trip worth taking. Praise for Meditation for Fidgety Skeptics “If you’re intrigued by meditation but don’t know how to begin—or you’ve benefited from meditation in the past but need help to get started again—Dan Harris has written the book for you. Well researched, practical, and crammed with expert advice, it’s also an irreverent, hilarious page-turner.”—Gretchen Rubin, author of The Happiness Project “The ABC News anchor, a ‘defender of worrying’ who once had an anxiety attack on air, offers a hilarious and stirring account of his two-steps-forward-one-step-back campaign to sort ‘useless rumination’ from ‘constructive anguish’ via mindfulness, along with invaluable suggestions for following in his footsteps.”—O: The Oprah Magazine
