Its pretty ok as an introduction to mindfulness, but the dude is a turbo SIMP and probably schitzo. The "woo woo" shit in there, and the chapter on women are just bad.

The best definition I've ever seen of mindfulness is "moment to moment, non-judgmental awareness".

Had a copy of this sitting around for ages. Should I finally give it a try?

Yeah, its great for the first 3-4 chapters. After that it's all kind of just re-hashing and inapplicable hippy pop philosophy

>verbal thought bad
>the "now" good
>the now can not have verbal thought -> cessation of monkey mind / wandering thought
>stop verbal thought (silent speech)
>heureka moment is not achieved through thought.

people do stay way too suck in their heads these days bro. While being in "the now" all the time would prevent modern civilization from ever of forming, living in the past or future all the time keeps you from actually utilizing anything modern civilization has given us.
