Drawing on some forty years’ experience of helping meditators, Rob Nairn takes us on a gentle journey into our own minds. With clarity and humour he guides us to understand how we ourselves generate the clouds of anxiety, desire and anger that obscure our happiness. We learn to recognise these obscurations, how they come about and how to release and dissolve them. The innate wisdom and brilliance of the mind then naturally manifest.
The book contains guidelines and practices for meditators.
