Excellent Book
I highly recommend this book for those new or just curious to buddhism. It's a good way to start learning about how good is meditation and the buddhism philosophy as a whole.
A useful and well written book...
I find Sakyong Mipham's books to be well written and useful. While combining some references to Tibetan buddhism, they are couched in such a fashion as to provide meaning to a non-buddhist western reader. I highly recommend reading this book and "Ruling Your World," no matter what your spiritual tradition.
