Description
This book is divided into three sections. The first explains in simple terms the basic Buddhist practice of meditation through which anyone should be able to develop a state of full mental and spiritual awareness. This is followed by a full translation, with explaining notes, of The Greater Discourse on the Foundation of Mindfulness (The Maha-Satipatthana-Sutta), a basic text of what the Buddha taught on the subject. And finally comes a much needed anthology of translations by the author from Pali and Sanskrit sources of further texts dealing with Right Mindfulness. --- from back cover - from Amzon
