THE
MEDITATOR'S ATLAS - MATTHEW FLICKSTEIN
RATING:
B-
Although
coming from a predominantly Theravadan viewpoint, this 'guide to
meditation' is helpful whichever Buddhist path you follow. I would
call it more of a GPS system than an atlas, however. It offers
direction along the pathways more than illustrating the path itself,
which is done by the sutra that the book bases itself upon. It covers
the entire pathway of Buddhist meditation starting from square one
right through until enlightenment and is suited to all practitioners
whatever stage they are at offering explanations of clarity upon the
main text.
I
would recommend this book to those wanting a step-by-step guide
suited to any path of Buddhist meditation. It would also be of use to
those with meditation questions but no teacher.
