Publisher's Synopsis
Millions first learned to meditate through Jack KornfieldÆs books, audios, or retreats. Now, with Awakening Is Real, he invites us to journey further. We asked this gifted teacher to choose eight of his most valuable advanced sessions from his decades of audio archives. The result is this superb collection of teachings on the very real possibility of awakening in this lifetime. Spanning topics seldom heard in beginnerÆs programmes, here listeners will explore: the six stages of awakening ò courage, impeccability, and other essential qualities of the spiritual warrior ò initiation and surrender ò igniting a passion for the immortal and transcendent ò facing difficulties on the path ò the BuddhaÆs final insights on ôletting go,ö and more.
