Publisher's Synopsis
In this introductory guide, Randy Bell, an experienced meditator for nearly 40 years, presents the basics of meditation practice. The background, purpose and benefits for meditation are offered, followed by descriptions of the basic sitting postures and recommended settings. He then walks the meditator through some specific beginning meditation forms and techniques. All of these techniques are offered independently of any particular meditation or spiritual tradition so that, over time, each meditator can develop his/her personal meditation practice as appropriate.
