From the bestselling author of Buddhism Plain and Simple comes the definitive guide for anyone interested in meditation — from beginners to those with years of experience. Zen priest and teacher Steve Hagen has created a simple, yet thorough guide that is free of cultural and religious jargon.
Meditation Now or Never covers everything the reader needs to know in order to begin a meditation practice. Hagen discusses what is and isn't meditation, along with simple techniques that can avoid needless complications. Experienced meditators will appreciate his advice on why we become "stuck," and how to get "unstuck." And every reader will benefit from Hagen's focus on meditation as not simply a spiritual technique, but as a way of life. Steve Hagen is a Zen priest, a longtime teacher of Buddhism, and the author of the bestselling Buddhism Plain and Simple and Buddhism Is Not What You Think. Steve began studying Buddhism in 1967. In 1975 he became a student of Dainin Katagiri Roshi, and in 1979 he was ordained a Zen priest. He lives in Minneapolis, where he lectures, teaches meditation, and writes. He is currently head teacher at Dharma Field Meditation and Learning Center in Minneapolis (www.dharmafield.org). "For the beginner, a lucid, no-frills introduction to Buddhist meditation. For the practitioner, a timely reminder of what meditation is all about." – Stephen Batchelor, author of Buddhism without Beliefs- Available now
