Resumen del Editor

Countless people worldwide have made Mindfulness in Plain English a beloved and best-selling classic in almost a dozen languages. Now, after nearly two decades, Bhante helps meditators of every stripe take their mindfulness practice to the next level - helping them go, in a word, beyond mindfulness. In the same warm, clear, and friendly style, Bhante introduces the listener to what have been known for centuries as the jhanas - deeply calm, joyous, and powerful states of meditation that, when explored with the clearly presented tools in this book, can lead to a life of insight and unshakeable peace.

Horrible Pali pronunciation

The reader must learn to pronounce Pali words correctly and leave more space before and after section headers. He does the same with "In the Buddha's Own Words" by Bhikkhu Bodhi. It is hard to listen to him.

Very interesting book

Found this book very interesting in order to see the deeper inside of mindfulness in meditative practice

Amazing

Has helped me so much. Thank you so much . Very informative and welll put together

Excellent

An easy read, narrator's voice is soothing. This book is clear and thorough, I now understand the concept of mindfulness. Q

Must have book on Mindfulness

At the beginning of the book, we are told that these teachings are not going to mean giving up your possessions, changing your religion, or promise of supernatural powers. And the author lives up to this promise, and goes beyond expectations. We are given Buddhist techniques that everyone can use to become more mindful and improve concentration.

Very good book for serious meditators

It gives you a practical understanding of Jhana in Theravada Buddhism. The type of jhana that the average Joe can do.

excelente guide

if you're looking for the answers to how get in mindfulness this is the right book

Great listen

The deep explanation of the jannah is wonderfully done! Thank you for this journey. It definitely helps understand meditative states much better.

nirvana

not a bad guide regarding mediation as a practice and using it in every day life. The story lost me at the various infinite levels of nirvana. probably not a good book for beginners to zen Buddhism.

very readable

I found the book was very readable and understandable for achieving jhana meditation. I was looking for a book on more intermediate type of meditation and this book fit the bill very well. towards the end of the book it goes into higher states of meditation which is above my pay grade.
