An Introduction to the Practice of Meditation
Book • 1999
This book, originally written as a long letter to a fellow Buddhist monk in 1974, provides a clear and simple introduction to the practice of mindfulness.

The book emphasizes the importance of living in the present and finding opportunities for self-understanding and peacefulness in everyday activities.
It also includes practical advice on breathing techniques and other meditative practices to reduce stress and enhance focus and self-compassion.
