I have read a number of books on meditation in the past, but nothing comes close to Robert Puff's `Reflections on Meditation'--he leaves no stone unturned in his discussion of everything related to the subject, both in theory and practice. If you need to learn about the wonderful life-changing power of meditation, and how you can immediately harness its benefits, then you must get this book.Usually, in my experience with other books of a similar genre, meditation only takes up a segment or a chapter--a few chapters at the most, which is baffling because meditation really does occupy an important role in self-improvement and it deserves its own book. Thankfully, Dr. Puff has filled that need--and in a flourish, to say the least. What's more, Puff writes with that easy cadence, a literary grace that makes the book something much more than "just a book on meditation"--it is a deeply pleasant experience to read a learned, enlightening, and highly detailed discussion of meditation--no tip or hint is too insignificant to be omitted (such as the exact amount of time you should wait before you should stand up). He also writes with that easy-to-understand prosody that's just spot on--even the most complicated matters (such as the nature of the mind) is explained in ways that utterly makes sense and whose understanding merely enhances your meditative experience.As I've said, I have a long experience with meditation--I already know the amazing things meditation can do for anyone--and I'm not referring only to health-related benefits. A deep sense of calm and peace has no price, yet it's one of the first things you may achieve with consistent meditation. Aside from that, you also stand to reap financial benefits--it's incredible, but it's true. And with Puff's book, the operative word here is "beginners"--which means you are absolutely reassured that no matter how little or close to nothing your experience with meditation is, you will "get" this, and get this completely.Robert Puff's `Reflections on Meditation' is an indispensable practical guide and an enlightening journey into the most amazing mystery of all. Whether you're looking for real answers or you need good, exhaustive practical instructions on how to properly perform it, you won't be disappointed with this book. This deserves a wider audience. I highly recommend this!
