Editorial Reviews

Review

"A clear, concise, and accessible guide to the principles, philosophy, requirements, and techniques of meditation." -- New Age Journal

"Among the most readable and lucid introductions to the art of meditation on the market today. It is as much a how-to-do-it book as it is a primer on the philosophy and psychology of meditation." -- Bulletin of the Yoga Research Center

A clear, concise, and accessible guide to the principles, philosophy, requirements, and techniques of meditation. -- New Age Journal

This book is a clear and easy to understand guide which teaches the fundamentals of meditation. Questions which inevitably arise in the mind of a beginning yoga student are dealt with in a straightfoward manner. Common misconceptions about yoga are discussed. The author explains how to meditate and includes instructions on correct posture and proper breathing and relaxation techniques. -- Focus on Asian Studies

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent!, January 31, 2007
By 
This review is from: Yoga Psychology: A Practical Guide to Meditation (Paperback)
This is an excellent book on meditation from a yogic perspective.
What really sets it apart from many others I have read is the last chapter: Meditation in Daily Life.
Almost every sentence in that last part of the book is a heuristic gem.

"ksotelo" (Madison, WI United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Yoga Psychology: A Practical Guide to Meditation (Paperback)
I already had developed a meditation practice before I read this book. It helped answer questions that would arise. I advise my students to read this book for developing a meditaion practice.

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Yoga Psychology: A Practical Guide to Meditation (Paperback)
I was happy to see that the book arrived quickly. However, it looks like it has been more than gently used.
