Description

Every meditation custom explains there are two elements to any efficient meditation practice: focus and perception. In Mindfulness in Plain English, writer Bhante Henepola Gunaratana, a monk from Sri-Lanka and venerated teacher of Buddhism, provided simple training about the meaning of perception (or vipassana) meditation through ideas that would be used to any custom. In Beyond Mindfulness in Plain English, he provides the degrees of focus with exactly the same wit and ease that created the prior book so effective. The emphasis listed here is on the Jhanas, these hypnotic states of deep stillness and awareness where the brain becomes completely absorbed and immersed within the selected subject of interest.
