Meditation in the Wild | Free Book
,
In The Press
This book is an exciting portrait of how the Buddha and meditators
since his time have gone back into raw nature to try to understand
themselves and humanity's place in the world. It draws upon history,
poetry, and art to give a feeling of what it must have been like to go
off into the woods to meditate. The examples drawn from Zen poets and
Chinese paintings are captivating. While the book has scholarly
foundations, it is quite readable. It also shows how our modern
lifestyle affects our understanding of nature. I think Meditation in
the Wild will find a large audience among the growing number of
readers of books on meditation. Many people have now had a taste of
meditation and are interested in reading more about its history and
its relation to the natural world. Readers of books about nature and
spirituality will also be drawn to this book.
