Direct, Useful and Liberating

This is the best book I have seen on meditation from a comparative religious perspective. John Selby presents a system of meditation by way of the lives and teachings of seven great spiritual figures. For the first five teachers, he focuses on the open acceptance of reality as it is. He considers the unconditional surrender to the Ultimate to be the main aim of spiritual life, viewed from both the Eastern perspective of absorption into a nameless reality and from the Western perspective of loving oneness with God. In discussing the last two teachers (who are less well known), he focuses on self-awareness. This balances the previous emphasis on surrendering the mind and will with practices designed to make self-knowledge blossom. Overall, this book is excellent and is a worthy guide on the spiritual path.

Wonderful Book On Meditation

Mr. Selby has brought together the worlds great wisdom traditions and methods in a very accessible, enjoyable book. His style of writing makes you feel as though you are learning from a friend, which indeed, you are. His insight and caring shine through on every page. The online support that he offers to help you with your meditation practice is a wonderful bonus gift. If you've never been very successful at meditating, had trouble silencing the "monkeys" or just want to be able to deepen your meditation experience and bring it into your everyday, working life, then treat yourself to this book. Many blessings to you on your path.

John Selby - Master of Understanding the Power of Meditation

John has collected the most powerful meditation methods of 7 of the most influencial and spiritual humans to ever walk the earth plane. My hat is off to him. His wisdom and insight is astounding and it is criticle that we use the methods he provide to assist us in finding inner peace in a world so dark and negative. I ordered his meditation CD's from his website and wish the post office would hurry up, I can hardly wait. God bless you John! And thank you a hundred times a hundred times.

Review from South Dakota

This was one of those books that just clicked with me on every chapter. I have read many books on meditation and they all eventually say the same thing and this book put it into such a format that it made an impact on me almost immediately. What I am most impressed with is the follow up care that you can receive on the internet. The web site provides you with audio teaching to back up what you read in the book and I have mever seen this done before. I highly reccomend this book to beginners and advanced students as well...if you do not get anything by reading it then your mind needs to be more open.

FINALLY MEDITATION THAT WORKS

I have read several other books by this wonderful, soulful author, and always with very satisfied results. John Selby doesn't just "talk about" meditation here, this book is extremely pragmatic, and a pleasure. Even by the end of the Introduction you already know how to do the first step in his meditation. This is for me the complete meditation program I've been looking for. Selby has brought together the basic psychological process of all the world's great meditation traditions, into a format that fits into my life. There are even 4-minute meditations here, for when you're right in the middle of the day and need to cool - this is just great! And the online audio support ... - a godsend. Thanks to John for finally making meditation a deep part of my life! Sandra
