Vipassana-bhavana, "the development of insight," embodies the essence of the teaching of the Buddha. As taught by S.N. Goenka, this path to self-awareness is extraordinary in its simplicity, its lack of dogma and, above all, its results. Goenka's Vipassana courses have attracted thousands of people of every background.
Based on the lectures and writings of Goenka - and prepared under his direct guidance - The Art of Living is a comprehensive exploration of an ancient meditation technique that brings real peace of mind. Author William Hart shows how this technique can be used to solve problems, develop unused potential, and lead a peaceful, productive life. S.N. Goenka is a retired industrialist and former leader of the Indian Community in Burma. Although a layman, his teaching has won the approval of senior Buddhist monks in Burma, India, and Sri Lanka, a number of whom have taken courses under his guidance. Despite his magnetism, he has no wish to be a "guru"- instead, he teaches self-responsibility. This is the first systematic study of his teachings to appear in English. William Hart has studied Vipassana for many years. As one of the first assistant teachers appointed by S.N. Goenka, he has conducted Vipassana courses since 1982. Fluent in English, French, and Hebrew, he has resided in Israel, Japan, and India.Binding Type: Paperback

Very Interesting and Well-Written
Format: Kindle
This is a very interesting and well-written book that discusses philosophy as well as psychology, while also providing numerous vignettes from actual cases, that demonstrate the implementation of the author's ideas. Highly recommended.

This is a really great book.
Format: Hardcover
I am a layperson so those who read this review should consider that. I have read this book slowly, very slowly and as a layperson have found it to be so very, very enlightening. This material has such depth and there were sections that I read that caused me to put the book down and consider what I had just encountered. Life is not a simple journey especially when we pick up so much detritus on the way. For years, I knocked on so many variously colored doors - entering and finding myself wanting...not them, mind you, but myself. Reading this - pointed me to a gate that swung open to a garden area, albeit, very overgrown, untended. It is here now that I work - some of what I thought were weeds are not. Some of what I thought were flowers are not. I just want to be free and am willing to accept that responsibility. Thank you, Dr. Yalom....you sage of my generation.

Great book for growth
Format: Hardcover
Deep and thoughtful book, worth the investment for any training psychotherapist or social worker. Yalom is a leader in the field and one whom I trust. I have my PhD in psychology and can't suggest this enough. .

Listed as good, came like new
Format: Hardcover, Format: Hardcover
I tried to cancel my order when I saw the negative reviews of water damage (only a couple, but the book was a more expensive textbook so I didnt want to risk it) but it was too late. Luckily the book came looking practically brand new. It was listed as "good".

Wow!
Format: Hardcover
This text is so fascinating. I was hesitant to make this purchase based on the price alone, but it is so worth it if you want to understand Existential Psychotherapy. Yalom, as many will already know, is a titan in the field of existential psychotherapy. This is a text that is from one of the fields most well-respected experts. Its also filled with a lot of content which makes the price tag certainly worth it. You'll likely walk away feeling like you got your money's worth and much more. Highly recommend
