Mindfulness meditation is everywhere these days, from the therapy couch to the Google campus, from prisons to athletic events. But what are the origins of this surge in mindfulness? What kind of worldview and lifestyle went along with these ancient techniques of meditative training? And, beyond the questionable metaphysics and well-worn pop-psychology bromides, what is meditation actually for?

This book explores the Buddhist ideas behind the mindfulness techniques that have seen such a groundswell of popularity. It covers meditation not just as a body of techniques for relaxation and stress relief to accessorize our busy modern lives, but as part of a radical system of self-transformation that offers the possibility of profound liberation.

In this book, the Buddhist system and the ideas behind it are presented, not as a religion that's asking for your allegiance, but as a body of theory and practice geared towards fostering an an inner revolution.

Buddhism for beginners will teach you :


  • The worldview underpinning Buddhist meditation techniques, and what those techniques were actually intended for.

  • The principles that guide a life lived genuinely, gracefully, and compassionately.

  • What meditation is all about in the context of the Buddhist path, and how to get into the practice of working with your mind.

  • A surprising vision of the self, the mind, and the nature of human experience that can fundamentally alter the way you look at the world.

Don't hesitate. To start on a journey that could deeply transform how you relate to your world, scroll up and click the "Buy" button now!.

Check out some of the testimonials below:

"If I had the choice of being lectured about Buddhism or reading a book, I'd pick this specific book because it is so nicely written. It starts out pretty slow paced introducing a bunch of concepts related to Buddhism before moving towards meditation and the like. It sucked me in right away and I continued flipping page after page nonstop. Reading in a quiet room sure helped and I felt this great sense of calmness. It's pretty amazing!"

"If you are beginning to practice Buddhism or are contemplating doing so, this book is a great place to start. It is the perfect book to give to friends or family members who are not familiar with Buddhism but want to understand your newfound spirituality. This book was extremely easy for me to understand and I fully as though the concepts presented were something that I could begin to apply now and by my own unaided strength. I would recommend this book to anyone else who is curious about Buddhism regardless of whether or not you intend on making Buddhism part of your life."

Review

"Okay I just finished reading Tai's book and like the others he has published this one is also short and to the point - which I appreciate immensely. Like so many of us my life is busy and cluttered with extraneous activities and the "noise" of day to day living. For years I've been in search of books about meditation, yoga, mindfulness, Buddhism, etc that are not loaded with theory and tons of background information that I'll never remember but rather a source that focuses on the core concepts. This books as with the others that Tai has written does just that. It's an easy quick read that truly provides the basics in a way that you can easily remember and immediately put into practice." - Gregoire

I like to keep my Spiritual Studies fresh and while I am not new to the subject of Buddhism I chose this book specifically because it is written for Beginners and that can be a fine line in itself because sometimes the word "beginner" can mean "low on good information" but this book really is a good one for Beginners because it has solid information and well written in easy to understand wording and it goes beyond what I consider as Beginner information but it does it in a way that anyone can understand.

In closing, if you don't know anything about Buddhism this is a good place to start. Whether you are advancing your own spiritual studies or writing a report and just have an interest in the topic it's a great choice.

The only thing I wish is that it was longer and more in depth. It feels very close, but like there could have been a lot more on each subject.

Cheers to Tai for writing such an easy to read and concise book about Buddhism. After returning to my Buddhist practice I wanted a beginners refresher course. Tai's book was perfect!

The descriptions of the various types of schools was especially enlightening. The Pure Land school was unknown to me before reading this book.

I look forward to your next book Tai.

While I have read this book through I cannot say in all honesty, that I have understood all its connotations but I read it through again several more times and constantly refer to it in the future. The contents are a little overwhelming at first but taken slowly chapter by chapter it is very absorbing.
