"Introduction to Meditation: Connecting with Your True Self" is an introductory book by Ryodo Yamashita, the chief priest of Ippo-an Temple in Kamakura and a Theravada Buddhist monk, that gently explains easy-to-follow meditation methods for daily practice. It explains how to do specific meditation, starting from 15 minutes a day, with illustrations and diagrams, making it easy for beginners to get started. It clearly explains why we are swayed by emotions such as anger, anxiety, and irritation, and carefully introduces the steps to "detach from fantasies of the past and future and return to the present moment." ・Author: Ryodo Yamashita (Bhikkhu Sudhammacara) ・Publisher: Kawade Shobo Shinsha ・Published: 2015 ・Price: 1,300 yen + tax ・Pages: 224 pages ・ISBN: 9784309276632 【Book Condition】 Both the cover and the main body have some minor scratches and wear and tear due to aging, which are typical of used books, but there are no problems with reading. As far as I could see, there were no writings or highlighting. (Please forgive any oversight) Please refrain from purchasing if you are concerned about the fine condition, as it is a home-kept item. This is a recommended book for those interested in meditation and mindfulness, and for those looking for hints on how to live authentically.
