Mastering the Core Teachings of the Buddha: An Unusually Hardcore Dharma Book

The very idea that Buddhist teachings can be mastered will arouse controversy within Buddhist circles. Even so, Daniel Ingram insists that enlightenment is an attainable goal, once our fanciful notions of it are stripped away, and we have learned to use meditation as a method for examining reality rather than an opportunity to wallow in self-absorbed mind-noise.

This book sets out concisely the difference between concentration-based (sometimes referred to as Zen) and insight (Vipassana) meditation. This is a revised and much expanded edition. (9781904658405)
