Summary
Freedom from suffering is not only possible, but the means for achieving it are completely within our grasp-literally as near to us as our own breath. This is the 2,500-year-old good news contained in theAnapanasati Sutra,the Buddha's own teaching on cultivating both tranquility and deep insight through the full awareness of breathing. In this book, Larry Rosenberg brings this timeless meditation method to life for people today, using the insights gained from his many years of practice and teaching. With wisdom, compassion, and humor he shows how the practice of breath awareness is quietly, profoundly transformative-and also supremely practical: if you're breathing, you've already got everything you need to start.
