## About this item

The Mind Illuminated by Culadasa is a meditation book for every level, with a step-by-step path for beginners and seasoned meditators. Written for the Western reader, it blends Buddhist teachings with research in cognitive psychology and neuroscience. It also introduces a model of how the mind works.

Built on a nine-stage model of meditation set out by the ancient Indian sage Asanga, the book maps the whole journey as 10 clearly defined stages. Illustrations and charts help you work through each stage. It runs to 512 pages and measures 234 x 191 x 37 mm.

Culadasa's 10 stages make it a full practice manual for a new meditator who wants structure, and a reference for experienced meditators. It is also a thoughtful gift for a friend who meditates. Open The Mind Illuminated at stage one and start your practice.
