This is great! However, if you have Buddhism for beginners by Jack Kornfield, this is a clip from that so don't waste your money. If you don't have Buddhism for beginners this is a good way to sample it. This is a universal message we can all live by no matter what religion or non-religion we are.

Awesome

In my humble opinion, this is the best book on straight forward Buddhist concepts and meditative practice. As a practicing Buddhist, I still return to this book everytime. It gives you a simple yet well-rounded understanding of what Buddhism is and how to begin your daily meditation practice. If using the audible version, you will hear how soft, inviting and eloquent Mr. Kornfield's voice is. Anything written by this author puts you on an incredible journey. A special thank you to Jack Kornfield for all you do for the Buddhist practitioners. You are truly an inspiration.

My favorite beginners guide to Buddhism

I got this book because it has some good meditations in that are useful for both beginners and experienced meditators. Here the author gives background information on Buddhism and the different traditions. The author goes into detail about the meaning of each tradition and how they relate to each other which is something I didn't know before. The author also goes through several meditations throughout the book which are insightful. I never had a teacher when I first started meditating, so these taught me some lessons I didn't know and I enjoyed them. This is a great book for those wanting to learn how to meditate and be guided through some meditations.

Great book for beginners and seasoned meditators
