I've also read "the miracle of mindfulness" which was a pretty good read. You can find a pdf quickly if you know how to use google ;) I would love to see some more scientific studies on how meditation affects one's brain. I'm not a big fan of all those "metaphysical" writings on meditation. I'd like to treat it more like a consciousness training.

+1 for the miracle of mindfulness by Thich Nhat Hanh. Ive tried to read a couple of other books about Zen and meditation - but I think that book was the best. Ive written a short summary about it here including a video from a meditation session at Google: http://blog.habrador.com/2012/06/whats-up-with-zen-part-2-thich-nhat.html http://blog.habrador.com/2012/06/whats-up-with-zen-part-2-th...
