Product Description
American Buddhists are coming of age--and eager for advanced teachings aimed at serious practitioners. There are few more qualified to offer such training than Joseph Goldstein, one of the West's foremost teachers of insight meditation for over thirty years. Now, this preeminent voice presents Abiding in Mindfulness, an in-depth course on the Satipatthana Sutta. Considered the core of Buddha's teachings, this vital discourse elucidates the four foundations of mindfulness meditation--the "direct path to awakening." On volumes one and two of these teachings--originally recorded live at the Forest Refuge in Massachusetts--listeners join Joseph Goldstein to explore: * The comprehensive structure of this seemingly simple teaching * A detailed investigation of how different meditation practices lead to realization * The Buddhist approach to engaging with the body: from progressive instruction on being with the breath to deconstruction of body concepts through awareness of the elements After more than thirty-five years studying and practicing this essential text, Joseph Goldstein concludes that the seeds of all the Buddha's teachings are contained within the Satipatthana Sutta. "When you open any one door into the dharma, it leads to all the rest," he explains. Targeted for experienced practitioners, yet accessible to those new to Buddhism, Abiding in Mindfulness offers more than twelve hours of insights and meditations for immersing oneself in this perennial jewel of Buddhist wisdom.

A great Resource September 10, 2009

4 out of 4 found this review helpful

I truly appreciated this audio CD with the wealth of practice hints it provided. However, unless one is familiar with the basics of Insight (Vipassana) meditation, this selection could be disappointing. It does not provided basic instructions for meditation techniques such as posture, mindfulness of breathing, etc. If you have had some meditation experience in the Insight practice, you will appreciate the AHA! moments you'll have when listening to these lectures and connecting your own meditation experiences with Goldstein's explanations. This a collection I will use as referance for a long time!

GREAT SET OF BUDDHIST CD'S June 16, 2008
Wm Michael Elder (Grand Prairie, TX USA)
8 out of 10 found this review helpful

I COMMENTED ON THE OTHER SET OF CD'S AUTHORED BY JOSEPH GOLDSTEIN AND NOW I WILL COMMENT ON THESE. THEY ARE WORTH PURCHASING....ESPECIALLY IF YOU HAVE BEEN ON THE PATH TO BUDDHISM FOR A SHORT WHILE, OR IF YOU ARE BUILDING A BUDDHIST HOME LIBRARY. I LIKE TO LISTEN TO THESE ON MY WAY TO WORK. I DID NOT PURCHASE THEM AS A PRIMARY REFERENCE, BUT AS A RICH ADDITION TO MANY OF THE OTHER BOOKS AND CD'S I HAVE BOUGHT FROM AMAZON. GOLDSTEIN IS A FOUNDER OF INSIGHT MEDITATION AND I HAVE PURCHASED MANY OF HIS OTHER WORKS. HE IS A GREAT TEACHER AND RESOURCE.
