Customer comments on this selection.
 I've Enjoyed the Audio CD
Very clear and cuts out the nonsense. I have both the book and the audio CD, both are good. I have a some minor technique issue differences with Adyashanti, but his "check this out for yourself" attitude is an important voice to be heard.
enjoy.
Shikantaza
I resisted in getting this book because I thought it was a rehash of Emptiness Dancing. But it is not at all. His "True Meditation" seems to expound the true meaning of Dogen's Shikantaza that I've read about elsewhere.
Short because it's to the point, and I found the CD good for listening to one section at a time as if listening to a Dharma talk in zazen.
MY NEWEST INTEREST....
I HAD SEEN THE LISTINGS ON SOUNDS TRUE FOR ADYASHANTI...AND NEVER REALLY TOOK THEM OR HIM SERIOUSLY.....FINALLY, MY CURIOUSITY GOT THE BEST OF ME AND I BROKE DOWN AND PURCHASED THIS, AS WELL AS, ALL OF HIS OTHER AUDIOBOOKS LISTED HERE ON AMAZON....I AM ABOUT HALFWAY THROUGH THIS SET OF CD'S AND I AM VERY HAPPY I PURCHASED THEM....I HAVE BEEN OVERWHELMED WITH MEDITATION AND DISTRACTED BY THE "PRESCRIBED ROUTINES" SET FORTH BY A LOT OF TEACHERS....AND, I HAVE POOR POSTURE....ADYASHANTI HAS A NUMBER OF REMARKS REGARDING POSTURE THAT WERE LIBERATING TO ME...AS WELL AS, COMMENTS ON MEDITATION, WHAT MEDITATION IS...AND WHAT MEDITATION HOLDS FOR US...AGAIN, I AM HAPPY I BOUGHT THIS....AND, I'M LOOKING FOR THE ARRIVAL OF HIS OTHER AUDIO CD'S I HAVE PURCHASED ON AMAZON..
Adyashanti Style Meditation in a Nutshell
I think this is a great book that describes the essence of Adyashanti style meditation and highly recommend it to those interested in a more open less concentration based meditation. Those of you that have listened to or attended satsangs with Adyashanti will have heard everything in this book at one time or another. The beauty of the book is it brings all his teachings on meditation together in short succinct chapters each one explaining a simple point in some detail. When experimenting with the meditation style as questions arise, which they undoubtedly will, one can easily pinpoint the chapter that may help answer the question.
Yes.
I teach anger management and depression classes for a hospital and have been looking for some meditations on CD to bring to class. I got this three CD set today, and went right to the meditation on the third CD called "Allow Everything To Be As It Is." I listened to it once to see if I could use it- because if it had any overt spiritual references I wouldn't be able to- and then took it to class to play for them. It worked out really, really well. I especially appreciate the wisdom and technique demonstrated in allowing the listener to let go of the meditator in the meditation. This practice makes so much sense to me. I imagine I will be back with more appreciation of this CD set after I have experienced the rest of it. It is just that I liked it so much, and my class liked the meditation we did so much I just couldn't wait to tell you!
