Windhorse Publications The Body
The body is the focus of the book. This is something of a new departure in meditation as the body is often given a degree of attention but not the degree and depth that Paramananda offers. Body work: focussing, body therapies, yoga etc are growing fields which often have a cross over interest in meditation. This book would be particularly suitable for these markets. Paramananda is an experienced, accessible and popular teacher (and has sold over 55,000 copies of "Practical Guide"). It will appeal to broader yoga, relaxation and stress reduction fields in addition to the more traditionally Buddhist and spiritual markets.

Windhorse Publications The Myth of Meditation: Restoring Imaginal Ground through Embodied Buddhist Practice
From his three decades of teaching Buddhist meditation, Paramananda offers an approach that is a challenge both to the way we experience ourselves, and the way in which we see and `be' in the world. He contends that the historical Buddha offered not a panacea for the ills of his time but rather a radical alternative way of living in the world, still as valid today as it was 2500 years ago. At the very heart of this radical vision is the art of meditation. Engaging in this art is what Paramananda outlines in The Myth of Meditation. Enlivened by his love of both the natural world and poetry, he guides us in a threefold process: grounding meditative experience in the body, turning towards experience in a kindly and intelligent way, and seeing through to another way of understanding and being in the world.

Collective Ink Path of Joy, A – Popping into Freedom
The search for spiritual enlightenment becomes difficult when seriousness replaces simple commitment. You close the door on the joy of being by taking yourself seriously. When you discover a path of joy, however, freedom is no longer a difficult task but an effortless exploration. Approaching liberation with effort makes sense to the mind when the goal is as valuable as enlightenment, and we're used to trying hard to achieve what we want. But understanding what you truly are works in unexpected ways, and in this lies the cosmic joke. A Path of Joy: Popping into Freedom takes a lighthearted look at overcoming the obstacles you encounter in your journey. Each topic is a kernel of truth that invites you to explore and pop into the aliveness of silence. And the path is more obvious than you'd expect.
