Making Friends With Our Mind: A Basic Guide to Buddhist Meditation

Making Friends With Our Mind gives a basic guide to Buddhist meditation. Starting with what meditation actually is and its basics, the book moves on to topics of mindfulness; sitting and walking meditation; contemplations on loving-kindness, compassion, impermanence, death, and bodhicitta; and the nine levels of meditation. The book's intention is to help us become friends with our mind; to know it, be one with it, and train it to develop full and perfect concentration during meditation.
