Freedom from suffering is not only possible, but the means for achieving it are immediately within our grasp - literally as close to us as our own breath. This is the 2,500-year-old good news contained in the Anapanasati Sutra, the Buddha's teaching on cultivating both tranquility and deep insight through full awareness of breathing. In this book, Larry Rosenberg brings this timeless meditation method to life. Using the insights gained from his many years of practice and teaching, he makes insight meditation practice accessible to modern practitioners.

Try to be mindful, and let things take their natural course. Then your mind will become still in any surroundings, like a clear forest pool. All kinds of wonderful, rare animals will come to drink at the pool, and you will clearly see the nature of all things. You will see many strange and wonderful things come and go, but you will be still. This is the happiness of the Buddha. —Ajahn Chah

Voice of the narrator fits the content of the book. One of the best ways to get familiar with practical Buddhism.

Simple but effective application of breathing for calming down the racing mind

There’s something special about this book. The first time I went through it, I wasn’t too impressed. But with every subsequent listening, it’s grown on me —in a way beyond any other book I can think of.

Larry Rosenberg is the Larry David of Dharma

The book is awesome and the Narrator is as good as can be expected. I just had a hard time keeping my attention on it, I was spacing off and a lot of info kinda went through one ear and out the other but I’m hoping I retained some of it hahaha. It’s great for those that don’t have that problem

Great! I just have a hard time focusing

I like the author first of all because he like Suzuki is not trying to sugarcoat meditation! He is refreshingly straight forward! I don’t think he took the scope of his understanding far enough though in his audio book presentation! Like many of the text I have studied in my the past 50 years! I would rather study 10 paragraphs of dense knowledge, over a 500 pages of watered down teaching from someone who I know knows how to teach it correctly! Don’t water down the baby formula, it stunts growth! It cheats the student!
I am unsure of what the motivation of such knowledgeable teachers are? Since, I have seen vast amounts of written material which could off been condensed for the student! Buddhist, and Zen Meditation Texts which have been both unnecessary & purposefully spread over an array of books! A tactic which has been practiced by some of the most well published instructors in the field! I would recommend this book to those of you who are going to seek many councils on the path, and tenaciously broaden the scope of their understanding! I encourage you to draw from a the vast amount resources out there, seek out many disciplines, become well rounded, and if your talented enough write a some better resources for practitioners! I gave Larry Rosenberg’s book this rating, because he should know better, much like Trungpa! The narrator was great, the audio was pretty decent! The author knows his stuff!
You will find gold nuggets in the stream, you’ll just have to pan-out many streams! And, that’s a shame!
