		<description>Venkat, I don&#039;t know enough about Tolle to comment. As for music in the background, it is helpful for some and not others and so you can see what works for you. When there is a musical background, it needs to be one that does not draw a lot of attention to itself.</description>

		<description>Mary, One more clarification.. Is it that by having a music background or in a guided meditation, again there is an action on mind level in the form of listening and understanding,, interpreting etc., Will this not effectively deviate the flow rather than helping.. Please Comment.. Thanks.</description>

		<description>I tried walking meditation after reading your post and found it as effective as sitting meditation. Must say, it is an relaxing way of meditating while remaining active.</description>

		<description>Karen, the only thing that comes to mind is a book called &lt;em&gt;A Grateful Heart: Daily Blessings for the Evening Meal from Buddha to the Beatles&lt;/em&gt;. It has all sorts of quotes, some of which I&#039;m sure you&#039;d enjoy. Although it says the collection is for meal blessings, I don&#039;t see why you can&#039;t use it anytime.</description>

		<description>Hi, Mary! Your meditations have been a blessing to me! I am wondering if you can recommend a meditation book. I love to read, and the printed word is so powerful for me. I would love to have a small collection of passages which encourage relaxation ---and all of the ideas/philosophies I hear in your meditations. Is there something out there like that? Or perhaps a small collection of phrases on which to meditate? One of my favorites is an old Chinese proverb which says, &quot;Tension is trying to be who you think you should be; Relaxation is being who you are.&quot;  I love that---and would love a book filled with ideas of the sort. Would love to hear your recommendations! Thank you, Mary. May you have a peace-filled 2011!</description>

		<description>Outstanding website. Kudos.
I am a teacher of Healing and Meditation for Self Healing, and
I am sending people to your site whenever I can.
The &quot;How To Meditate&quot; section makes Meditation easy and very do-able.
Keep up the good work.</description>
