Acerca de esta escucha

Meditation offers, in addition to its many other benefits, a method for achieving previously inconceivable levels of concentration. Author B. Alan Wallace has nearly 30 years' practice in attention-enhancing meditation, including a retreat he performed under the guidance of the Dalai Lama. An active participant in the much-publicized dialogues between Buddhists and scientists, Alan is uniquely qualified to speak intelligently to both camps, and The Attention Revolution is the definitive presentation of his knowledge.

Beginning by pointing out the ill effects that follow from our inability to focus, Wallace moves on to explore a systematic path of meditation to deepen our capacity for deep concentration. The result is an exciting, rewarding "expedition of the mind", tracing everything from the confusion at the bottom of the trail to the extraordinary clarity and power that come with making it to the top. Along the way, the author also provides interludes and complementary practices for cultivating love, compassion, and clarity in our waking and dreaming lives.

Attention is the key that makes personal change possible, and the good news is that it can be trained. This book shows how.

It's too difficult for me.

I think it this book is a bit theoretical not practical. Many philosophical words used.
Anyway it's difficult for me. hard to read.

Well written a must-read guide for achieving SHAMATHA

In "The Attention Revolution," B. Alan Wallace offers an enlightening and meticulously detailed guide to shamatha meditation that stands out as a beacon for those seeking deeper understanding and mastery over their own mind. This book is brilliantly structured, outlining ten progressive stages of meditation that guide readers from the basics to the most profound levels of meditative consciousness.

Wallace's expertise in both Buddhist scholarship and practical meditation shines through each page, making complex concepts accessible and engaging. His approach is both nurturing and challenging, pushing the reader to explore the limits of their mental focus and discipline. The practical exercises and clear explanations provided are invaluable, making the art of meditation approachable for both novices and experienced practitioners alike.

What makes "The Attention Revolution" particularly compelling is Wallace’s ability to interweave scientific insights with centuries-old spiritual practices, presenting a compelling case for the benefits of deep meditation. This book doesn't just teach meditation techniques—it also provides the tools to transform this practice into a catalyst for personal growth and mental clarity.

Whether you're looking to improve your concentration, enjoy deeper peace, or expand your cognitive capacities, "The Attention Revolution" is a must-read that will guide you toward achieving these goals with grace and perseverance.

Incredible.

This is a comprehensive work for beginner and in depth seeker alike. I recommend it to all and find its value irrefutable. While the performance is rather rigid, its exacting tone equates well with the arch of focused attention. The writing is clear, beautiful, and beyond bring with meaning.

good book about Samatha meditation.

A deep dive into Samatha meditation explaining the different levels and how they can be attained.

A bit heavy for anyone not dedicated to meditation.

Magnificent

Useful, clear and straight to the point. Summarizes meditation in simple steps. Very thorough though but without dragging or dwelling on the ideas.

Why can't the narrator pronounce the words?

This is an amazing and important book. The narrator completely botches it - both in his inability to correctly pronounce Sanskrit words - and I'm not being picky, he slaughters them - and in his lack of appropriate intonations. He reads everything as if he doesn't understand what he is reading. It's hard to believe that Audible could allow someone to completely ruin a fabulous book.

Conflicted thoughts; Fantastic book but not necessarily reflective of book’s title or the introduction.

I truly walked away from this book with incredible insight and reflection. Although, the book’s title/cover art and introduction sets the listener up for an entirely different experience than what is actually delivered. Lastly, the narrator was fine, but the audio production was poor and heavy on the low end (bass).

Good book; lacks a little

This book was very good, though it lacks a little with regard to its idealism. It also doesn't show clearly how to achieve all of the stages of Samatha, as it just says that most people won't achieve it. I know it's a little idealistic to expect everyone to be able to achieve this state of mind, but it'd be better to have more actionable steps for laymen (like me) to achieve some degree of mental clarity. Other than that, I thought the book was very clear and provided decent meditation instructions. I like the subject matter, as well.
