Description:
Meditation is not a means of self-improvement. It is a way of discovering the truth and relating to it with compassion and honesty. Awaken to a richer spiritual life with The Inner Art of Meditation, a comprehensive six CD study course on vipassana (or 'insight') meditation from Jack Kornfield. Of the two major schools of meditation, this is the one that teaches you the art of creating a 'foundation of awareness' in your daily life. Zen monks draw from these same principles in their practice.
This is how to become fully 'mindful' in your life - aware of your inseparability with all things and fully conscious that your actions in the moment create the patterns in your life. Distilled from a five-week workshop, this complete course offers over eight hours of intensive, personal instruction from this respected meditation teacher and clinical psychologist.
