A PATH THROUGH THE LANDSCAPES OF INSIGHT

EN STI GENNEM INDSIGTENS LANDSKABER – A PATH THROUGH THE LANDSCAPES OF INSIGHT

By Niels Lyngsø

IN HIS NEW personally insightful and practical book, A Path Through the Landscapes of Insight, Niels Lyngsø talks about all the life-changing things that were set in motion six years ago. About daily life, the sensory apparatus, the emotional life, the activity of thought and the relationship with other people, which have all changed. About the many positive effects of a regular meditation practice, but also about the serious mental side effects that can occur if you – like Lyngsø himself – become overconfident.

BASED ON HIS own meditation routines and experiences, good and bad, Lyngsø tries to understand what is going on deep inside or far out in the landscapes of consciousness, and how it can all make sense for a rationally inclined Westerner like him.

“IF YOU IMMERSE yourself in a pragmatic Buddhist practice, you get an opportunity to live a life with more mental balance – even when the waves are high. It can completely change the way you are in the world – and the world you are in.”
