Once, the Mula Nasruden was searching the ground under a street lamp. "Can I help?" asked a friend. "I lost my key in the house," said Nasruden. "But then why look out here?" "Because the light is better in the street," came the reply. Nasruden is a great fool in Middle Eastern folklore. Only by turning on the light inside his house -- his inner psyche --will he find the key. John Cianciosi shows us how to do just that. Directly from the heart, this practical, nonreligious book guides the reader of any faith to reduce stress, increase health, and achieve inner peace. It clearly explains the meditative process and offers very simple exercises to balance theory and practice. Each chapter includes Q&A sections based on the average reader's experience and crafted from the author's twenty-four years of teaching, first as a Buddhist monk and now in lay life. Of all primers on meditation, this one excels in showing how to slow down life in the fast lane.

Excellent book,
By Cold Mountain (Vancouver, BC) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Meditative Path: A Gentle Way to Awareness, Concentration, and Serenity (Paperback)
This is an excellent book for the beginning, intermediate or advanced meditator. John Ciancosi's wisdom and compassion show through in every word. The book is simple to read and easy to grasp if one takes the time to do the prescribed exercises.
3 words convey what I think about this book... "Sadhu! Sadhu! Sadhu!"

At first, I had got this book from library and liked it a lot so bought it. I was surprised to see only one review for this book.
