Breath by Breath: Liberating Practice of Insight Meditation

by Larry Rosenberg (Author)

Synopsis

Larry Rosenberg, one of the most prominent Buddhist teachers in the West, shows readers how to cultivate tranquility and deep insight through the full awareness of breathing. He discusses how to use the breath to attain greater awareness of body, mind and feelings and how to bring awareness to daily life. He shows us how freedom from our dissatisfaction can be as near to us as our own breath. The book also includes a translation of the Buddha's original teachings on breath, the Anapanasati Sutra. It is the most up-to-date version of this profound, accessible and little known teaching.
