Meditation: it's not just a way to relax, or to deal with life's problems. Done correctly, it can be a way to radically encounter bliss and to begin - and sustain - real transformation in ourselves. In Mindfulness, Bliss, and Beyond, self-described meditation junkie Ajahn Brahm shares his knowledge and experience of the jhanas - a core part of the Buddha's original meditation teaching. Never before has this material been approached in such an empowering way, by a teacher of such authority and popularity. Full of surprises, delightfully goofy humor, and entertaining stories that inspire, instruct, and illuminate, Mindfulness, Bliss, and Beyond will encourage those new to meditation, and give a shot in the arm to more experienced practitioners as well.… (more)

> MANUEL DE MÉDITATION, selon le bouddhisme Théravâda, de Ajahn Brahm, (2011 Almora, 250 p.). — Les éditions Almora nous font régulièrement découvrir des œuvres traduites de l’anglais (ou de l’américain) dans l’esprit d’une libre recherche spirituelle ouverte sur les traditions vivantes du monde contemporain.
C’est le cas du Manuel de Méditation selon le bouddhisme Théravâda de Ajahn Brahm.
Ce manuel de référence décrit la méthode progressive qui permet d’aborder la méditation du bouddhisme Théravâda, école adepte d’une “religion sans dieu" et dont le seul “livre sacré", nous dit l’auteur, est l’expérience méditative elle-même.
