"Emptiness: A Practical Guide for Meditators is thoroughly 'reader
friendly' in organization and presentation, making it an ideal and
valued addition to community and academic library Buddhism
collections in general, and Buddhist Mediation supplemental studies
lists in particular."-- "Wisconsin Bookwatch"
"Over the centuries, the term "emptiness" has taken on a number of
meanings in Buddhism. It is also widely misunderstood, leading
people to see Buddhism as nihilistic or life-denying. In Emptiness,
Guy Armstrong, a guiding teacher at the Insight Meditation Society,
unpacks this concept in a straightforward and practical manner,
inviting readers to discover its liberating truth through their own
direct experience."-- "Lion's Roar"
"Emptiness is a brilliant and practical introduction to the
practice and attainment of liberation. Encapsulating Guy
Armstrong's decades of dedicated Buddhist practice and study,
Emptiness presents profound Buddhist teachings and describes ways
practitioners can experience them for themselves. This is an
important foundation for anyone interested in the meditation
practices of Buddhism."--Gil Fronsdal, author of The Buddha before
Buddhism
