Publisher's Summary

Easwaran takes the timeless teachings of the Buddha and other mystics and tells us how we can train the mind not just during meditation but throughout the day. 

Feeling trapped by unwanted thoughts and emotions can seem an inevitable part of life. But Easwaran, who taught meditation for 40 years, teaches us a way to break free.

Just as a fitness routine can create a strong, supple body, spiritual disciplines can shape a secure personality and a resilient, loving mind. Writing as an experienced, friendly coach, Easwaran takes the timeless teachings of the Buddha and other mystics and tells how we can train the mind not just during meditation but throughout the day.

Working with difficult colleagues, choosing what to eat, and listening to a child’s needs are all opportunities to try out different, wiser responses. Easwaran describes how training the mind is a glorious challenge - one that brings joy and purpose to life.

This audiobook contains the first 10 chapters of the print book, but omits the last three chapters which were added in 2010.

Excellent book for starters

Should read the given book atleast once if you want to get a glimpse of what and hows of mediation... and if you want to be a serious meditator one should re start again absorbing one chapter every week.. and start applying the advise/suggestions accordingly with it.. thanks.. and good luck in your pursuit... :)
