Guided Buddhist Meditations

by Thubten Chodron

The meditation teachings of lamrim (also known as the “stages of the path”) present a step-by-step method to tame the mind, a method through which anyone can find insight and meaning, according to their own level of understanding. With consistent practice, the practitioner’s comprehension and experience deepens, while the words used to spark meditation sessions remain the same.

This audio program presents over fourteen hours of guided meditations, accompanied by personal guidance that will be especially useful for those with limited access to Buddhist teachers or Dharma centers. Perfect for both the inexperienced and advanced practitioner, this program supports the listener in beginning, continuing, and deepening a daily meditation practice.
