Concentratie en meditatie. Een handleiding tot bewustzijnsontwikkeling

Ankh-Hermes, 1976. Linnen band met stofomslag. Pp: 221. Concentratie en meditatie is een van de beste en meest klassieke boeken over dit onderwerp. Er is geput uit verschillende bronnen, met name boeddhistische en zen-boeddhistische. Hierin worden duidelijk omschreven richtlijnen voor innerlijke ontwikkeling gevonden. Door meditatie, voorafgegaan door concentratie, kan bewustzijnsverruiming gecreëerd worden, die leidt tot herkenning van het hoger zelf. Het boek begint met een zelfonderzoek van de motieven waarom men zich met concentratie en meditatie wil bezighouden, en leidt dan via eenvoudige adviezen over het hoe en waarom van concentratie naar een reeks praktische oefeningen. Vervolgens wordt aandacht besteed aan eenvoudige meditatie, aan de hogere meditatie en ten slotte aan contemplatie. Een lijst met onderwerpen waarover gemediteerd kan worden is toegevoegd, evenals een verklarende woordenlijst. Deze uitgave komt tegemoet aan de behoefte van ben die zich realiseren dat verlichting alleen van binnenuit bereikt kan worden en edelmoedigheid enkel het produkt van weloverwogen zelfontwikkeling is. Veel mensen is door dit klassieke werk al de weg gewezen. ISBN: 9789020240214. Cond./Kwaliteit: Goed.
