Description

Helping others to slow down occupied Easwaran's attention from the start of his career as a spiritual teacher, when he disembarked in New York in 1959, until his very last talk in 1998. He regarded slowing down the mind as a topic of the utmost seriousness, and Take Your Time has become a classic. Society is catching up with Easwaran's thinking. Fractured attention and speeded up minds are having a devastating effect not only on health and productivity but also on our personal lives: family counselors describe parents too busy to see one another, friendships slipping apart, children with stress disorders like those of busy executives. Time management books can help, but they don't get to the root of the problem: minds that are out of control. And Easwaran, a highly regarded authority on meditation, is a master of the mind. A gifted teacher, well aware of the challenges of modern living, he supports us in the midst of our busy schedules.

Author Biography:

Eknath Easwaran (1910 -- 1999) is respected around the world as an authentic guide to timeless wisdom, and as the author of passage meditation, an eight-point program of universal spiritual practices that includes slowing down and one-pointed attention. In 1961 he founded the Blue Mountain Center of Meditation, which carries on his work with publications and retreats. Easwaran's books on spiritual living have been published in 26 languages. His translations of the Indian spiritual classics are bestsellers in English, and more than 1.5 million of his books are in print. A gifted teacher who lived for many years in the West, Easwaran lived what he taught, giving him enduring appeal as a teacher and author of deep insight and warmth.
