"Insight meditation provides a very clear and rich method for learning how to meditate.
It becomes clear as well that meditation doesn't need to belong to a specific religion; although several religions are quoted in the book, it goes beyond; hence this course becomes practicable for everyone who seeks inner peace and freedom."

"Couldn't put it down. It is a sturdy book with CDs and cards with to remind you of the teachings, etc. All in a sturdy gift-box. Love it, and it would make a great gift. Nice quality and clearly explains meditation for the layman using language appropriate to the teachings but not out of my reach as a beginner. Short personal anecdotes from the authors give the book authenticity."

"A great beginning or addition to anyone interested in Buddhism and/or meditation. Materials are indepth, yet easily understood by anyone starting out in meditation. "

"I gave the CD several tries just in case it was my mood or mental state but nope, this woman's tone of voice is condescending. There were times that I actually opened my eyes and looked down at which ever body part she was referring to because her tone of voice made me think I was doing it wrong. In order for a guided meditation to be effective for me, the speaker must have a calm, soothing voice and an even tone. This woman would say something like "just let it go" and the vision I would get would be her standing over me trying to pry and yank "it" out of my hands. I want to visualize "it" floating quietly away. Because I didn't care for the CD I merely flipped thru the book. It all comes in a nice box with pockets for the CD and some little study cards. "
