Overview
Discover extraordinary mindfulness through whole-body Vipassana meditation Beyond the Breath is one of the first books to give a complete overview and description of sensation based vipassana meditation--the form of mediation believed to have been used by the Buddha 2,500 years ago. Vipassana meditation provides a practical method of self-awareness, allowing us to fave difficulties in a calm and relaxed way. By concentrating on the body's sensations, one comes to see the inherently fleeting nature of our feelings and experience--opening the door to genuine, lasting peace of mind. M.Glickman's approach is unique--he takes a mediation practice deeply rooted within a historic Buddhist framework, and gives it a modern-day, scientific spin--he presents sensation based vipassana meditation and Buddhist principles in 20th-century language, secularizing ideas that may sound exotic, off-putting, or out-dated. Glickman's passion for the topic, as well as his great understanding of Buddhist concepts, make this an inspiring read.
