Über diesen Titel
Disruptive practices to revolutionize your relationship with meditation and fully engage with the full breadth of your experience.
Why do we meditate? The main reason most modern people start meditating is because it helps us feel better—reducing anxiety, improving sleep, decluttering the mind, and so forth. “But where does your meditation go when things go bad?” asks Andrew Holecek. “Where is your spirituality when ‘rock meets bone,’ as they say in Tibet—when the crap hits the fan?”
Reverse Meditation is for anyone who wants to bring the challenges of life onto the path of awakening. When things get hard, it’s time to turn your practice on its head—and throw out any assumption that meditation exists to insulate you from the confusion, difficulties, and uncertainty of life. “By putting your meditation into reverse,” Holecek teaches, “you’ll actually find yourself going forward. Step into your pain and you can step up your evolution.”
With his signature blend of depth and accessibility, Holecek invites you to explore:
• Three core forms of meditation—mindfulness, open awareness, and the boundary-smashing reverse meditations
• How to know when you’re ready to engage with reverse meditation
• On-the-spot practices for snapping into a meditative mindset in difficult situations
• Contraction and expansion—how to dismantle habits of avoidance to become more open, resilient, and fully alive
• How reverse meditation opens you to a direct experience of the fundamental perfection of reality—just as it is
“These unique meditations are designed to reverse our relationship to unwanted experiences, which means going directly into them instead of avoiding them,” says Andrew Holecek. “It’s not an easy journey—yet this path leads to the discovery of unconditional happiness, basic goodness, and true freedom in the most turbulent situations.”

Kritikerstimmen
“Andrew has done it again! First he nudged us toward lucidity in the sleep bardo with his awesome book Dream Yoga. Then toward more lucidity in the life bardo with the even more awesome Dreams of Light. Now he brilliantly demonstrates how there need be no gaps, even when we confront the untoward, when we are jarred out of positive awareness by adversity and pain and injury, and we turn it all into advantage in his latest great work, this wonderful Reverse Meditation. I cannot recommend it highly enough—a great read and immensely useful for thriving and evolving positively in this world of obstacles.” —Robert Thurman, professor emeritus, author of Wisdom Is Bliss and the Bantam Books translation of The Tibetan Book of the Dead
“Reverse Meditation is a brilliant masterpiece that illustrates that Andrew Holecek’s extensive exploration of inner space has given him a unique perspective of outer space. Andrew understands that each and every one of us is in space at this very moment. Not only are we all traveling through the Universe on this spaceship that we call Earth, but we also generate the illusion of solid ground through our individual egos. Andrew clearly demonstrates that many of the problems we all face can be traced to our futile attempts to give our egos a place to stand. Through reverse meditation, we can mold ourselves into the softest, most open, yet strongest and most indestructible thing in the Universe—space itself. Nothing can hurt space! A must-read for anyone who wants to improve their life and expand their horizons.” —Ron Garan, former NASA astronaut, author of Floating in Darkness
“Meditation sometimes becomes dualistic: we learn to let go of thoughts and feelings, to cultivate an empty mind. What do we lose when we split ourselves like that? What might we realize if, instead of contracting in the face of pain and other unwanted experience, we open up to them—realize our nonduality with them? Reverse Meditation shows us how to do that and how it can transform our lives.” —David R. Loy, author of Money, Sex, War, Karma

Wow.
Blew me away. After the author’s other book Dream Yoga I came with rather high expectations. But they were fully satisfied.
A. H. has this way of making deep spiritual insight rather approachable, but without watering it down. It’s really quite extraordinary. He says in reverse meditation we ought to strive to be humans, not saints. I really like that.
What did I like about the book? Well first the premise. Meditating on the idea of reverse meditation alone was a gift for me.
Then, when I listen to A.H. I get these moments of insight: they approach me unassumingly and then BANG my mind changes. When I listen to this book that happened every 5 minutes or so. I couldn’t pin point a single thing, there were too many good things.
Maybe it’s the personal experiences he puts into it? The respect he transmits to all traditions he is talking about (while staying loyal to his own love of Buddhism)? The fact that he reads it himself in such a calming manner, or that he is bringing first rate meditation instructions to the table? I don’t know… I just know I really enjoyed the book.
