"A major contribution to the clarifying and deepening of our understanding of mindfulness and its traditional dharma roots." -- Jon Kabat-Zinn , author of Mindfulness for Beginners "Joseph Goldstein is one of our most brilliant teachers. This is a masterwork of wisdom, depth, and experience, combining careful analysis, meditative guidance, and great love." -- Jack Kornfield , author of A Lamp in the Darkness "Author Joseph Goldstein--one of the most wise, lucid, and experienced teachers of our times--has written a book on mindfulness that calls forth the depth and power of classical Buddhist teachings. If you are drawn to meditation out of a longing to realize spiritual freedom, this book will be a cherished resource on your path." -- Tara Brach , PhD, author of True Refuge "Joseph Goldstein has written an immensely clear, practical, and accessible guide to living a mindful life. From examining its roots to exploring its manifold expressions, this deeply significant work shows the path for mindfulness to become our closest friend. I feel like I've waited a long time for a book just like this, and here it is!" -- Sharon Salzberg , author of Real Happiness "In eloquent and compelling detail by a master of the art, Goldstein's new book shows how mindfulness leads to calm, well-being, and the joy of self-realization.

Synopsis
The mind contains the seeds of its own awakening--seeds that we can cultivate to bring forth the fruits of a life lived consciously. With Mindfulness , Joseph Goldstein shares the wisdom of his four decades of teaching and practice in a book that will serve as a lifelong companion for anyone committed to mindful living and the realization of inner freedom. Goldstein's source teaching is the Satipa hana Sutta, the Buddha's legendary discourse on the four foundations of mindfulness that became the basis for the many types of Vipassana (or insight meditation) found today. Exquisite in detail yet wholly accessible and relevant for the modern student, Mindfulness takes us through a profound study of: - Mindfulness of body, including the breath, postures, activities, and physical characteristics - Mindfulness of feelings--how the experience of our sense perceptions influences our inner and outer worlds - Mindfulness of mind--learning to recognize skillful and unskillful states of mind and thought - Mindfulness of dhammas (or categories of experience), including the Five Hindrances, the Six Sense Spheres, and the Seven Factors of Awakening "There is a wealth of meaning and nuance in the experience of mindfulness that can enrich our lives in unimagined ways," writes Goldstein. In Mindfulness you have the tools to mine these riches for yourself., The mind contains the seeds of its own awakening--seeds that we can cultivate to bring forth the fruits of a life lived consciously.

    An EXCELLENT transaction! I got an amazingly good price on a lovely set of 9 vintage books. They were all as described. Shipping was included and fast. Packaging was a sturdy box with packing paper to prevent shipping, and an outer wrapping of plastic to protect from moisture. Great seller, I would definitely buy from again. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!!! A++++++++ :) :) :)

    I purchased a very rare and expensive book from this dealer. The condition of the book was much better than the description in fact near perfect. The packaging was fine considering it’s weight and distance traveled. The book was sent almost immediately I purchased it. A great job very thorough and professional service. Tracking was fine until it got to ASENDIA I had no idea where it was or when it was arriving.when it did arrive there was a issue with delivery at this end.No fault of the vendor
