What is Meditation?
Meditation begins as the practice of using effort to focus awareness on one object or process, such as a point on the body or the breath. As the meditation deepens, less effort is needed to stay focused. The mind becomes less restless and the body more relaxed.
Finally a profound union between the object of focus and the mind arises, where the two are experienced as one single process. Duality of the self and the world is removed. The personal mind vanishes into the Universal Consciousness.
wei wu wei : doing not-doing
In meditation, the less you do the more you achieve.

Good stuff
Very nice introduction to sitting meditation explains a lot although I had to look for some additional information about how to avoid back pain during meditation. like for example angle of sitting. But overall it is very good teaching with cool bells sound that help you get deeper into Your Self.
Response: Thank you for your feedback. The CD does instruct how to correctly align the spine, hips, pelvis, neck and head during sitting meditation. Due to a lifetime of sitting in chairs, slouching, elevated heels in shoes, lack of fitness resulting in weak core and back muscles, and/or athletic injury, poor spinal posture is very common. As instructed, a person can use pillows to add support while the body conditions itself to sit properly. Also doing core exercises and hip opening yoga postures will help. It is very important to allow the spine to maintain it\’s natural curve while in meditation. Manipulating this natural curve too much will create a distortion in the spinal energy, nervous system and ultimately mental activity. In time and with continuous practice the body will condition itself to sit properly with minimal discomfort and greater ease. I wish you the best in your practice. Namaste.
Simple and powerful
This mp3 is extremely useful for beginners and advanced meditators alike. I was impressed by how simple and to the point it was. I could tell that a lot of experience was put into this mp3. Listening to this mp3 creates a peaceful and relaxing internal environment that aids in the meditation process. Also, the tracks are divided into sections that can stand alone just for the daily meditation or be played in succession for the history, purpose and physical sitting positions. This is a great instruction and nothing else is required. Just breathe!
the perfect guide
in my opinion this is an easy to understand introduction into meditation with all the necessary points mentioned. lincoln´s soft voice and the nice background music help to get into a meditative state right from the start. to me this is the best introduction into meditation i know and i´ll recommend it to everyone who is interested in starting to meditate. thanks lincoln for this one!
