Practical Meditation Exercises

This book is excellent for those curious about spiritual concepts. If you have enjoy learning from masters like Anthony de Mello or Eckhart Tolle, you will find Mike's book a very practical application of those teachings. The accompanying CD has both short guided meditations & lessons that can be incorporated into guided meditations. I find that most of them are paced rather fast so it might be good to listen to it a couple times & then just do one in my own mind. Overall, there are very useful techniques for those beginning or at an intermediate stage in their meditation practice.

Great Book and CD

In the Light of Meditation: A Guide to Meditation and Spiritual Development, with CD by Mike George

Excellent book. Explains spirituality in a very simple language alongwith very effective meditation techniques.

A very logical interpretation of God

Sometimes I think I am led to certain books as they just seem to jump off the shelf at me. When I saw this one, I really liked the 4-color design, subtle yet pleasing, and when I realized it had a meditation CD with it, I paid full price at Borders ($20). I have not listened to the CD yet, but the author's explanation of God and soul is above anything I have read, and I am currently studying a lot of Buddhist practice. Many of the interpretations parallel the practice of mindfulness and the reality that all we have is now--that the current moment indeed is our heaven. The book eminates the fact that we are souls, here temporarily in human form, and we were here in soul form before and will be after we leave this life. I really, truly love this book, and I do not usually review books. But this one gives a very nice take and very nice reasoning behind the author's understanding of spirituality. It is very logical and acceptable, yet neither negates nor denegrates individual religious beliefs.
