Known for bringing insight meditation to the West and for his many bestselling books, including A Path with Heart (more than 100,000 copies in print), Jack Kornfield now offers a collection of his most popular teachings with Buddhist Meditation for Beginners. This specially designed gift-set includes four complete audio learning courses:

  • The Beginner's Guide to Buddhism—Jack Kornfield illuminates Buddhism's most essential teachings, and how they make it possible to overcome challenging mental states such as fear, confusion, and anger.
  • Meditation for Beginners—Comprehensive introduction to the vipassana ("insight") practice of meditation to cultivate a profound inner calm and awaken to the truth. Exercises include four complete meditations.
  • Meditations of the Heart—Step-by-step meditations cast light on Buddhism's cornerstone, the Four Noble Truths. These meditations take less than 10 minutes each to practice, yet will take you to the heart of essential Buddhist teachings about on opening to the truth, forgiveness, fearlessness, and more.
  • The Beginner's Guide to Forgiveness—Drawing from his background in meditation and psychology, Jack Kornfield reveals the path to forgiveness and the way out of our pain.
    Jack Kornfield's bestselling meditation programs present him at his best—engaging, intelligent, helpful, and easy to follow. Join him to begin a journey that will enrich your life beyond measure.

        The title of this collection is slightly misleading. While it does introduce Buddhist meditation, it also includes lectures and interactive exercises on meditation in general, as well as specific meditations on forgiveness and opening one's heart. Jack Kornfield's voice is gentle and perfectly paced as he guides listeners through these exercises. Kornfield balances Buddhist teachings on spirituality with accounts of his own experiences and doses of self-deprecating humor. One shouldn't listen to this audio while driving because Kornfield guides listeners to reflect on inner states (often with closed eyes), but otherwise this is a strong introduction to meditation for those in any tradition. The one weakness is that because the production comprises several presentations, there is some repetition of jokes and stories. G.T.B. (c) AudioFile 2007, Portland, Maine
