Mindfulness in Action: Making Friends with Yourself through Meditation and Everyday Awareness

This book is an inspiration. The editor Carolyn Rose Gimian has sifted through the roughly 2,000 talks Chogyam Trungpa gave on meditation and mindfulness and pulled together his pith instructions and witty observations. It is best read slowly so you can absorb the wisdom. If you follow his instructions, you will establish a strong meditation and mindfulness practice.

Chogyam is clear, lucid and brilliant. It's all the more amazing since English was not his native language. This book, Mindfulness in Action, makes the case, with simplicity and thoroughness, for what mindfulness & meditation really are and why we should practice.

Great book. Learn the simplicity and power of meditation and it's effects from a true Buddhist master. Easy to read. Goes straight to the essence of living.

Every page has pithy and profound dharma in it. I highly recommend it.

love this book GREAT for people that would like to get a better understanding of meditation

I found this to be a good review for foundations of meditation.

Best buy!

The astonishing Chogyam Trungpa. One can't have enough of his work.

I have studied & practiced meditation for years, and I'm particularly familiar with the teachings of Chogyam Trungpa - which at some times need several readings or even several years to have even an incling of what he's on about.....this one is different.Expertly compiled and edited, this is the master text of meditation practice on the cushion, and its extension in post meditation.Some content may seem basic and easy to grasp, but do not underestimate how potent these teachings are. This is strong medicine! what has been communicated is both the beginning instructions along side the most advanced teachings available, seamlessly.This book is a masterpiece.

Ein Schatz an hilfreichen Hinweisen für jeden, der verstehen will, was Achtsamkeitspraxis ist und sie selbst übt. Der Autor ist ein Meister seines Fachs und spricht aus tiefgründiger Erfahrung basierend auf einer gründlichen, traditionellen Ausbildung in Asien und seiner Kenntnis der westlichen Kultur. Er gilt als Mitbegründer und Ursprung der heutigen Bewegung. Wer zur Quelle zurück will und nach authentischer und fundierter Anleitung sucht, liegt mit diesem Buch goldrichtig.

I love the works of Chogyam Trungpa...he really understood human nature, and how to elevate yourself in very simple day-to-day adjustments in your whole idea of who you are and how to approach your life. Wonderful book, added to "Shambhalla" already a treasure in my collection. A must read also!

Great book, I recommend to every one interested in mindfulness, meditation and to understand yourself.Delivered on time. Good service.

This is a gem of a book from a modern meditation master. It's the kind of book to be read again and again, and each time you find new insights.

Es ist wirklich sehr Beeindruckend, wie einfach die Dinge sein können, wenn sie jemand mit so viel Weisheit erklären kann.

Excellent quide for use daily and also for assisting others on their path to understanding themselves.
