The deceptively simple three-phase method presented here is a meditation practice that can be worked with for a lifetime. Larry Rosenberg looks to Zen, to Insight Meditation, and to the teachings of J. Krishnamurti to find three kinds of meditation that anyone can do and that complement each other in a wonderful way: (1) breath awareness, (2) breath as anchor, and (3) choiceless awareness. Having the three methods in one's repertoire gives one meditation resources for any life situation. In a time of stress, for example, one might use breath awareness exclusively. Or on an extended retreat, one might find choiceless awareness more appropriate. The three-step method has been taught to Larry's students at the Cambridge Meditation Center in Cambridge, Massachusetts, for many years. After teaching the three-step method, Larry goes on to show how to bring the awareness gained in meditation to the world off the cushion, into relationships and into all areas of daily life.

Very good information about meditation and the different ways to practice. I really enjoyed it

Good book

I have heard this book 3 times now. Larry is a wonderful author who is gentle, direct, and grounded. His insight is easily understandable. what I love about this book is that it is an all encompassing book for anyone who is searching for understanding the dharma. if you are interested in figuring out Buddhism, this is the first book I would recommend. the teacher is a Theravada based Buddhist, and this is a nice and simple door to get a basic taste of Therevada. understanding the difference between Therevada, Mahayana, and Vajrayana schools of Buddhism was something I was very confused about when I first started, and understanding meditation was never really clear because I was bouncing through different authors from different cultures. this is the clearest, most easy to understand directions for how to practice, and it always returns me to the ground of the present when I listen to it, as sometimes we get caught up in the idea of awakening in the future. So if you know nothing about Buddhism, or you are an advanced yogi, this is a must read period.
My only problem was the narrator has no idea what the Sanskrit or Pali words are. He pronounces vipassana like "Vip-in-as-sauna" it's just silly.

may be the best all around book for understanding

It basically summarises how to live.
Everyone thinks that yogic, monk or meditative paths are different from worldly living.
This book bridges the gaps about such thoughts and beliefs so well. I have been to VipassanaMeditation retreats a few times and a Surgeon by profession. I keep having difficulty in balancing meditative practice with busy profession. This book has clearly unifies daily living and meditative practices. Crisp and concise👍.

To the point

One of the best books that I have listen to in audible about meditation and the practice of awareness.

I love this audible book

ways to improve yourself? Maybe? If sitting around waiting for your breath to tell you how to live is an idea that you think can help you get through this world, then read this book. The author tells you how eight thousand ways and they're all the same...

Enough

A great listen all around and a necessary practice in a very busy modern day materialistic world.

Necessary Read and Practice

I gave this rating because I felt that the author held nothing back, very open, and honest with his guidance of the potential practitioner! I would recommend to anyone seeking a firm foundation in meditation! Seriously, I wish I had read this years ago! Through thiin with some of the best guidance Trungpa has to offer! And, It’s a dammed good start in a lifelong study! Two Thumbs!

A Very Concise, and Compact Presentation!

This was a long book. I love some of the information presented. There was some information that I didn't comprehend when he was referring to religion.

Ok

I love Rosenberg, but the reader for this book was poorly chosen. He struggles and mispronounces names and words that are common and well known to anyone familiar with Buddhist meditation. The book is good, but the audible edition is not a great experience.

Great content, poor reading
