Great guide for meditation by Bill L. (Maine)  5 Stars
February 28, 2009
This is a clear and well written guide to Insight Meditation practice. I was surprised as rather than presenting the same directions so many other books give, this book will lead you into deeper aspects of the Practice. It is not only a book for the beginner. The cards and the meditations on CD round out this offering beautifully. The book is printed on glossy stock, a rarety in this cost reduction age where so many keepable books are printed on something akin to newspaper with the same yellowing qualities.
This is an offering worth having.

Very Helpful by Katie (Vermont) 5 Stars
February 22, 2009
I started by using a couple of the meditations. I find them soothing; my husband says that when I do one after a stressful day at work, he can see that it calms me down right off. Some time after starting the meditations I began reading the book. I have been through it once and am partway through a second reading. I find it inspiring and can easily imagine continuing this process of re-reading for some time to come as part of my spiritual journey. My favorite meditations are the breath meditation, the walking meditation, and the metta meditation. I did the body sensations one once when I was tense and it was quite helpful. The one on hindrances doesn't seem very helpful as one is probably only experiencing one hindrance at a time, while the meditation walks you through all of them. I have been recommending this book and tapes to friends as it has been so useful to me. I also love Sharon Salzberg's book A Heart as Wide as the World.

No One Does It Better than Sharon by Roberta Fineberg (NYC)  4 Stars
November 30, 2008
Sharon Salzburg's voice, intonation, and word choice just seem to work for meditation. Breath Meditation and Meditation on Body Sensations are particularly good. I could do w/o the packaging, which includes study cards and a workbook. But the CD is tops!

I haven't worked through the entire book, but like what I've read so far. The guided meditations on CD are very helpful, as well.

by Sharon Salzberg (Author)
Within your own heart is a limitless source of supreme energy – the energy of love. No other force in the universe compares to it.
