5.0 out of 5 stars The best book on meditation I have found, 7 Jul 2000
By S. H. O. Moss "vajrapriya" (Cambridge, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Change Your Mind: Practical Guide to Buddhist Meditation (Paperback)
Paramananda's book is so special because it is suitable for complete beginners to meditation, but it remains an inspiration to me after 8 years of meditating. He manages to blend simple description of technique (which is soon remembered) with subtle pointers and indications which are so easily forgotten as one ploughs on with a meditation practice. I know many people who have read this book, and don't know of a single one who has been disappointed.

5.0 out of 5 stars An excellently written and uplifiting book, 14 Jan 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Change Your Mind: Practical Guide to Buddhist Meditation (Paperback)
This book is so simple, and so elegant. It introduces the basic principles of meditation in such a clear manner, but I also found it interesting, uplifting and enjoyable to read. Even if you are not really interested in either buddhism or meditation, this book is far more useful than 90% of those cloying "self-help" manuals.

4.0 out of 5 stars Awesome - buy it...., 13 Sep 2006
By Ratnaz (Cambridge) - See all my reviews
I think this is a great meditation book, for beginners and others. Its style is very emotive, almost poetic at times; this contrasts favourably with the dry, utilitarian attitude of other meditation books I've reviewed.

Far from making it subjective, Paramananda's way of writing is very inspiring, and one feels welcomed into the world of meditation. He manages to emphasise open-mindedness and kindness to oneself rather than a narrow, results-driven approach.

Meditation experiences are really impossible, ultimately, to describe in words, but Paramananda manages to give the reader a feel for what it's all about that should be sufficient to take one's practice a considerable way.
