With his distinctive clarity and wit, Bhante Gunaratana takes us step by step through the myths, realities, and benefits of meditation and the practice of mindfulness. We already have the foundation we need to live a more productive and peaceful life-Bhante simply points to each tool of meditation, tells us what it does, and how to make it work.
