manche texte waren theoretisch anspruchsvoll, deswegen habe ich lange gebraucht. ich finde die zusammenstellung wirklich geglückt, es findet sich eine große bandbreite an stil und perspektiven. habe viel neu denken gelernt.

this is a very scientific approach to meditation and an attempt to make it quantifiable and like a video game you can play through, following the 10 stages to shamatha.
i like it better when meditation is approached more like a theory that can never be fully proven or quantified because many parts are highly subjective.
still, there are some pieces of advice that helped me in my practice (make it more "efficient" in the jargon of the book) and i am only stopping it because i have listened up to the "stage" i am at, and for this advice i will continue listening once i have "mastered" that "stage".

habe mich ehrlich gesagt eher durchgequält. es gab genug interessante info, um bis zum ende dran zu bleiben. aber auch sehr viel wiederholungen (am ende jedes kapitels einen "was tun" teil, der eigentlich alles noch mal viel zu langatmig sagt) und auch sehr viel das ich schon wusste. evtl. bin ich einfach nicht die zielgruppe.

ein langes gedicht mit mehreren anhängen. ich lese nicht viel lyrik, deshalb kann ich sie schlecht rezensieren. habe viel gefühlt und möchte mir einiges merken.
der band hat den ver.di literaturpreis für lyrik bekommen und wurde hier besprochen, vielleicht besser für einen eindruck: kunst-kultur-bb.verdi.de/themen/nachrichten/++co++24a20fa8-780f-11ee-ba12-001a4a160110

this is a recording of a series of meditation classes pema chödrön gave, meant for beginners. it's all about shamatha meditation, and most of it is with the breath as a meditation object. for me it was quite easy to follow along, and i really liked her voice and humor. there was much food for thought, but most importantly many practical things that help with meditation. the ones i've tried out have proven quite helpful and nice. recommend :)
