I read The Art of Living by William Hart after attending a ten-day Vipassana course at Dhamma Giri meditation centre, Igatpuri.
I wish I had read this book before doing the course. The book is a methodical and detailed explanation of the ten-day course and the teaching of the Buddha that underpins the course.
The book is divided into three sections:
Morality
Concentration of mind
Purification of mind
It also had useful references and a Pali-English glossary.
It's a must-read if you want to attend a ten-day Vipassana meditation course but it's also useful if you want read a practical and lucid description of the teaching of the Buddha.
HIghly recommended.
