A propos du livre

Revue de presse :

     Nairn, a Buddhist in the Tibetan tradition trained by, among others, the Dalai Lama and the Gyalwa Karmapa, has written a very capable guide to the essentials of modern Mahayana Buddhism and its derivative meditational practices. Inevitably influenced by Western ideas, Nairn's text is nevertheless a clearly written, engaging, and respectful primer in both the religious attitudes and the spiritual practices of Buddhists in the Tibetan tradition. This should prove a helpful reminder for practitioners and a ready guide for beginners. — Library Journal , March 1, 1999, p 93

Présentation de l'éditeur :

     Here is Buddhism in a nutshell: In just over a hundred pages, using simple language that anyone can understand, What Is Meditation? delivers as complete a treatment of Buddhist teaching and practice as many books twice its length. It covers both the basics of the Buddhist worldview—which many people call a philosophy, not a religion—and the age-old practice it offers to help us unfold our innate qualities of compassion, self-acceptance, and inner peace.
