Synopsis

Mindfulness meditation is everywhere — from therapy offices to Google campuses, from prisons to professional sports. But most people practicing it have no idea where it came from, or what the original tradition was actually for.

Buddhism for Beginners answers those questions clearly and honestly. It traces mindfulness back to its Buddhist origins and shows you not just the techniques, but the complete worldview and system of self-transformation they were designed to support. This isn't a book about relaxation. It's about what meditation is actually for — and what becomes possible when you understand it at its roots.

Whether you're a longtime meditator looking for context, or completely new to the tradition, this book meets you where you are. It lays out Buddhist ideas in plain language — without jargon, without dogma, and without asking you to believe anything on faith.

Inside you will find:

• A clear introduction to Buddhist philosophy and its core insights
• The origins of mindfulness and how it fits into the broader Buddhist path
• How to apply these ideas practically to your daily life
• The Buddhist understanding of the self, the mind, and the nature of experience
• Why this tradition has endured for 2,500 years — and what it still offers us today

What readers are saying:

"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."

"The perfect book to give to friends or family members who are not familiar with Buddhism, regardless of whether or not they intend on making it part of their life."

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Discover why people like Russel Simmons Jr, Jennifer Aniston, Phil Jackson and Brad Pitt all incorporate the life-changing practice of Buddhism into their lives.

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.

With Buddhism for beginners you will find out:

• 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.

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."
