About this listen

Countless people worldwide have made Mindfulness in Plain English a beloved and best-selling classic in almost a dozen languages. Now, after nearly two decades, Bhante helps meditators of every stripe take their mindfulness practice to the next level - helping them go, in a word, beyond mindfulness. In the same warm, clear, and friendly style, Bhante introduces the listener to what have been known for centuries as the jhanas - deeply calm, joyous, and powerful states of meditation that, when explored with the clearly presented tools in this book, can lead to a life of insight and unshakeable peace.

A silent book

Timer clicked along but no sounds were made through out except for the beginning announcement: This is Audible. Had it replaced twice but was the same silent book every time. Customer service staff Rome was a fantastic help!

A beatiful explanation of Metta meditation

Truly an amazing explanation of mindfullness. This book truly shows how uncomplicated and easy mindfullness can be with a little bit of effort on daily practice.

The last 16 mins of Chapter 4 is the best Metta meditation I have observed in many books. A daily listening/practice of those 16mins does a world of good to yourself and everyone around you. Try and listen to it daily for 5-6 days and see the benefits!

Chapter 6 helped truly control anger in a unique way.
It has changed my life and hence the review!!!
Blessings to Bhante G and everyone who made this an audio book.
