This wise and delightful guide to the benefits of meditation practices will help cultivate a calm, peaceful, and enlightened lifestyle. Drawing from his years of experience as a spiritual leader, Edward Viljoen directs you down the path to enlightenment using wisdom such as mindfulness practices, to train yourself to become absorbed in a purposefully chosen activity; sitting practices, to reduce the use of mental and physical resources as much as possible by sitting still and silently; and creative practices to employ such devices as journaling, observing, and focusing on a favorite literary or spiritual passage. Featuring personal anecdotes and stories from the author's spiritual teachings, The Power of Meditation offers a wonderful experience that will inspire all to live more wise and fulfilling lives.
