THESE LESSONS AND EXERCISES will help you understand Buddha's essential teachings (the Dharma, Way, or Path), including the basics of Buddhist meditation practice. Apart from quoting ancient Buddhist scriptures, its pages also include priceless advice from Dalai Lama, Eckhart Tolle, Krishnamurti, and Alan Watts, among other renowned spiritual teachers. Although the ultimate goal of Buddhist meditation practice is attaining a state of spiritual Awakening or Enlightenment, it must be said that not many people achieve this -except perhaps dedicated monks and advanced practitioners. In any case, there are many benefits attributed to regular meditation practice, as a recent Mayo Clinic report states: "Meditation can wipe away the day's stress, bringing with it inner peace... If stress has you anxious, tense, and worried, consider trying meditation. Spending even a few minutes in meditation can restore your calm and inner peace... Meditation can give you a sense of calm, peace, and balance that benefits both your emotional well-being and your overall health. And these benefits don't end when your meditation session ends. Meditation can help carry you more calmly through your day and may improve certain medical conditions..."
