Karma and Chaos: New and Collected Essays on Vipassana Meditation (Vipassana Meditation and the Buddha's Teachings) 1st Collected Edition

Paul Fleischman introduces the reader to the age old tradition of Vipassana through these essays. The thoughts are presented in a very lucid manner leaving the reader with something to think about. His language has a poetic touch. The thought presente in a sentance is so profund that one needs to read it more than once to get the full impact of it. The title essay, Karma and Chaos, where he explains, and better yet, demonstrates, how a life in line with karma can yield a balanced personality without sacrificing intellectual integrity. This book exudes compassion, wisdom, and joy of living a life where one is at a peace with one self.A wonderful experience.Surendra

I had the incredible opportunity to hear Dr. Fleischman speak at a meditation center. His wisdom and plain speaking on Vipassana had a profound impact on me and helped me strengthen my practice. This work in particular is so special giving the readers a clear way to think about annica and kamma. Thank you.

The writing is excellent, and very readable. It is a fantastic perspective on Vipassana meditation, and unlike some of the books out there on the subject, is equally good for those that have attended at 10 day course as well as those who have not yet tried the technique. Very well done, and will be re-read for years to come..

Deep and sincere book on the dharma.

its' ok

Amazing book

I felt like he gave words to my psyche. This book is deeply touching and supremely human. Thank you Paul and Pariyatti press.

as well written as it is inspirational. The two do not always go hand in hand. The first essay/poem is beautiful

An in-depth study of Vipassana. The 10 day retreat unearthed my birth trauma that no other therapy had uncovered. Amazing process and an amazing book

Excellent insight by a psychiatrist on Vipassna Mediation

Excellent, very useful if you wish to know more about Vipassana meditation.
