This is a clear and in-depth description of the jhanas, the
traditional Theravadan meditation practice, from two authors who
have practised these meditations in retreat with and under the
close guidance of one of the great modern masters. Pa Auk Sayadaw
is the abbot of Pa Auk Monastery in Burma (Myanmar) and the
successor to Mahasi Sayadaw (d. 1982), who has several well-known
books in English and who was a spiritual mentor to numerous
American Buddhist teachers, including Jack Kornfield, Joseph
Goldstein, Rodney Smith, and Sharon Salzberg. He is considered by
many to be the leading teacher of the jhanas. The authors describe
the techniques and their results, based on their own experience.
This helpful book will be appealing to anyone who wants to learn
more about this type of meditation. The instructions are thorough
and detailed and will help even experienced meditators who have
done retreats at one of the many popular Buddhist centres where
concentration meditation is taught.
