The Meditator's Handbook: A Comprehensive Guide to Eastern & Western Meditation Techniques By David Fontana



Describing the theory and practice of all the major Eastern and Western approaches to meditation, this handbook unifies the insights provided by these great spiritual traditions with those of modern psychology.

This is a good introduction of the different practices in meditation. Some topics covered are shamanism, christian mysticism, the kabbalah, yoga, koans, zazen, kundalini, visualization and tai chi. The book first gives culture information, and then goes on to explain the meditation technique. I like the way the book describes the meditation process of each tradition - of course this is a highly subjective area, but good nevertheless. It attempts to explain what exactly you are to think about when you are meditating
