Description

Right Concentration: A Practical Guide to the Jhanas Achieving the states of bliss and deep focus associated with the Buddhist jhānas is a key part of the Buddhist path. The Eightfold Path, which includes Right Concentration, is a fundamental aspect of the Buddha's teachings. However, the jhānas, a series of eight progressive altered states of consciousness, can be challenging to achieve. In Right Concentration, Leigh Brasington provides a clear and accessible guide to achieving these states, dispelling the mystery surrounding their practice. Brasington offers practical instructions and guidance on how to overcome common pitfalls and provides a wealth of material on the theory of jhāna practice. By following his guidance, anyone can develop the concentration and mental clarity needed to experience the bliss and freedom that the jhānas offer. With clear and concise language, Right Concentration is an ideal resource for meditators looking to deepen their practice and achieve a greater understanding of the Buddhist path.
