Summary: A definitive book on mindfulness practice
Review: This book is a commentary on the Satipatthana Sutta, the Buddha's discourse on the four foundations of mindfulness. I read the book when I started meditation practice five years ago and have reread it twice since then, finishing my most recent read a week ago. This book explains the sutta in very clear, understandible terms making it and the practice it describes more accessible to modern western readers. The sutta and the book describe the whole of mindfulness practice both as a meditation practice and as a way of life. As a friend remarked, "Once I found this book, I realized that I didn't need to read anything else." If you want an introduction to mindfulness, this is the book for you. If you want to deepen your understanding of mindfulness, this is the book for you. It is simply the best book I've found on the subject.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Very useful
Review: What a great book. This scholar/monk gives his own insight and knowledge on Buddhism for the first half of the book and the second half is a collection of discourses by the Buddha and many of Buddha's followers. I read this book once front to back and learned a great deal. The second time, however, I read the second half first, and flipped to the first half accordingly where Thera expounded on each topic. This book explains Theravada Buddhism well and I learned a great deal. Highly recommended.
