“The clearest, most practical, and inspiring guide on meditation I’ve ever read.”
— Joseph Bharat Cornell, meditation instructor, author Sharing Nature book series
"An indispensable aid that offers clear instruction for meditation."
— John P. Gorsuch, author of An Invitation to the Spiritual Journey
"For the person interested in learning about meditation, Novak's book offers a practical guide for the beginner, explaining the various techniques and postures in terminology the beginner can understand. Limiting the background to what the beginner needs to know, the author delves into the various stages of meditation, starting with relaxation, and the techniques used to achieve a relaxed state. Once attaining a relaxed state, the book looks at interiorization and the means of concentration on the goals of meditation, which are more spiritual than material. One of the final chapters deals with application of meditation to the practitioner's daily life. The 108-page book ends with some reference materials for those interested in pursuing the practice further, and is, all-in-all, a useful guide for the beginner."
