Based on a newly revised theory of relaxation, ABC2 Relaxation Theory, devised by the author, this book explains why hundreds of techniques used by professionals typically sort into six groups. The integration of these groups forms the core of the book. Smith's findings also reveal that not only can relaxation go beyond stress management, but that different families of relaxation have different effects.

A historical and comparative study grounded in close readings of important works, this book explores the dynamics of the theory and practice of yoga in Hindu and Buddhist contexts. Author Stuart Ray Sarbacker explores the fascinating, contrasting perceptions that meditation leads to the attainment of divine, or numinous, power, and to complete escape from worldly existence, or cessation. Sarbacker demonstrates that these two dimensions of spiritual experience have affected the doctrine and cultural significance of yoga from its origins to its contemporary practice. He also integrates sociological and psychological perspectives on religious experience into a larger phenomenological model to address the multifaceted nature of religious experience. Speaking to a broad range of methodological and contextual issues, Samadhi provides numerous insights into the theory and practice of yoga that are relevant to both scholars of religious studies and practitioners of contemporary yoga and meditation traditions.

Jesus, Mantra of God explore la pratique du mantra dans la prière. Elle est issue du style de prière méditative initié par John Main et poursuivi par son disciple Dom Laurence Freeman, OSB et la Communauté Mondiale pour la Méditation Chrétienne. Au cœur de cette prière se trouve le concept indien de mantra - se concentrer sur un mot ou une phrase ayant une signification spirituelle. Le mantra, dit John Dupuche, "est comme une clé pour ouvrir le magasin d'où le disciple du royaume fait sortir des choses à la fois nouvelles et anciennes" (Matthieu 13:52). La première partie du livre enrichit la compréhension et la pratique du mantra par le lecteur, basée sur la foi, et examine les aspects connexes de l'ouïe, de la respiration et du corps. Avec cette compréhension accrue, le praticien arrive à voir plus complètement le visage du Christ, qui est le mantra divin, et entre ainsi dans le silence de Dieu. La deuxième partie examine la relation intime entre la méditation-mantra et le cycle de l'année liturgique. Dans la méditation, on peut revivre les événements de l'histoire sacrée ou approfondir l'impact spirituel des grandes fêtes de l'année de l'Église. Une brève annexe traite de la visualisation, un autre aspect de la prière contemplative.
