Beschreibung
Meditation is one of the most effective and proven ways to understand one's own essence, to better understand oneself, and to find peace, harmony, and joy. Although even the greatest sages learn to meditate throughout their lives, if we dedicate a little time to meditation each day, we can change our perspective on ourselves and the world around us. This is also the purpose of this accessibly written treatise, which serves as a practical introduction to meditation and at the same time a spiritual and philosophical guide. Matthieu Ricard insightfully presents - as allowed by his direct experience with both Western and Buddhist cultures, thorough knowledge of sacred texts, and contact with spiritual masters - the universal nature of meditation, which is based on the development of good human qualities, altruistic love, and compassion. He also shows how, in our individualistic and materialistic society, meditation can be beneficial for each of us, as it helps us discover and develop our deepest aspirations.
