In How to Be, an internationally acclaimed authority on meditation, psychotherapy, and healing provides unique and valuable insights into the principles underlying all forms of meditation. Naranjo's lucid and inspiring exploration places sacred thought within the framework of modern psychology, clarifying ancient wisdom for the contemporary seeker and meditator. His brilliant elucidation of the four types of meditation (not-doing, letting-go, mindfullness and God-mindedness) will be useful and enlightening for anyone pursuing spiritual practice. This book includes an essay published in the long out-of-print classic On he Psychology of Meditation and features important, previously unpublished material detailing new research and thought, including essays on the relationship between meditation and psychotherapy and the role of music as an aid to meditation and healing. Incorporating original insights and scientific research with inspiring passages from many traditions, Naranjo show that all meditative disciplines provide us with important lessons not only how to meditate, but "how to be." --- from book's back cover
