Dr. Norman Rosenthal has seen the video with David George and his experience as a veteran with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and it never ceases to amaze him. David George's trauma and experience of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) has continued and is an inner experience even though the event has past. What we have here is a huge medical problem and a huge human tragedy. David George was one of five people whom was studied in a pilot study of Transcendental Meditation (TM) with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). As awful as David's story was, it was no exception. Yet, four of the five people had the same level of transformation from the process of learning and practicing Transcendental Meditation (TM).

Meditation For Beginners - 22-Day Course (Simple Meditation Programs)


Meditation for Beginners is just that... an easy to get started 22-Day meditation course to help you begin meditating.

The author has meditated for over a decade using this simple form of focusing on the breath. The much sought after "Jhana levels" 1-8 occurred early on - within the first year, and continually after that using this very simple system based on what the Buddha did.

The action was physical that Buddha took - not based on religion - so, the author has removed the religion aspect of meditation so you can practice as the Buddha did so successfully.

Currently the author, Vern Lovic, resides in Thailand where he makes frequent visits to meditation facilities and Buddhist temples where meditation retreats are held often (Wat Suan Mokkh, Wat Pah Nanachat, Wat Nong Pah Pong, Wat Tum Sua).

This book is not just for Buddhists, but it is for people from all religious backgrounds. There is nothing about this meditation technique that demands you follow Buddhism or any other religion. This book doesn't teach religion - it teaches a simple physical practice that leads to amazing insight and jhana levels.

When you purchase this book you can feel free to write the author by contacting him through his Jhana8.com site. He will help to guide you - depending where you happen to be on your journey.

This book makes an excellent gift. Recently the price dropped to just $2.99 so grab it before the price goes back up.

Metta and profound thanks for purchasing this book!
