A Million Thoughts: Learn All About Meditation from a Himalayan Mystic

The richest book on the science of meditation

What a wonderful book on thoughts and Meditation! Thoughts are the integral and the biggest part of what, who, and how we are. And yet, we seldom think about our thoughts that why we have thoughts in the first place? What we can do with our thoughts, about our thoughts and what's the purpose of having them? Thoughts make us and/or break us. To know the power of thoughts and futility of thoughts both are equally important. This book helps understand ourselves better. I've never read something like this before, so new and refreshing knowledge! Meditation is the word which has become the talk of the world these days. And we can see many so called experts throw this word easily around to make their point. I'm into meditation for last 18 years, and did many yoga and meditation course. However, I learned for the first time, through this book, that Meditation is much more than five minute feel good exercise. In fact, the true meditation is not an enjoyable experience and requires lot of sustained effort, dedication and discipline to tread this path if we want to expeirnce the world of meditation which can be the most beautiful and rewarding experience in itself. This is the ultimate guide, and the must guide for those who wants to explore the true path of Meditation to experience our existence which is a way more than what we currently understand and accept. There is so much fluff in the market about meditation, that is truly intimidating and misleading. Rather wasting, many precious years doing the wrong practice of meditation consistently, it is much more wise to invest 4 hours to read this book and acquire the true knowledge before going further on the path of meditation. Om Swami, is a gift to this world, who doesn't preach but demonstrates the knowledge through self-experiments that prbably very few will dare to replicate in their lives. He's been there in deep woods of Himalaya and indulged in intense meditation for months. Walk the talk is more powerful than walk the walk, and that's exactly Om Swami does in this book by giving step-by-step guideline on how to proceed on the path of true Meditation. I wish, all Modern Meditation Gurus and speakers, read this book, endorse it and help spread the right knowledge in the world about Meditation. This ultimate guide on Meditation is must for your library.

Good condition. Good read. Highly recommend.

Se qualcuno volesse capirne qualcosa in più sulla meditazione direi che questo libro è quello che fa al caso vostro

"Complete"....that's reviewing this book in one word. If you are a serious student of meditation and just not a casual reader, then you would know that it's a rather misunderstood and frequently mis-explained concept. More often than not, its taught furthering certain ideologies or beliefs. This book allows you to look at meditation objectively and also see what goes under the bonnet. I think to some one who is not a practitioner, the benefits will come more if they resolve to dive deeper. But then meditation shouldn't be a casual subject anyway. I had the honour of meeting the author once and upon meeting, I said that I wanted to see him as I considered him a "Professor of Meditation".......this book vindicates this title!
