Bookstore: Goldstein and Salzberg Joseph Goldstein and
Sharon Salzberg, co-founders of the Insight Meditation
Society, teach the Buddhist vipassana, or insight meditation. This comprehensive
audio correspondence course, the first of its kind, is designed to be completed
within a year. Side 1 of each tape contains a talk about a specific aspect of
meditation practice, while side 2 follows with a guided meditation. Arranged in
a naturally flowing sequence, tapes should be listened to in order. Purchasers
of INSIGHT MEDITATION are entitled to a year of guidance and support from a
personal meditation instructor. The accompanying workbook contains lesson
reviews, a glossary, exercises, and questions for the student. A student may
submit answers to the instructor by regular mail, email, or--appropriately--by
audiocassette. Students can expect a helpful, attentive, and timely response.
Listeners who participate fully in the course can expect to develop a strong
foundation in daily meditation practice. C.S. © AudioFile 2000, Portland,
