This book review is part of a series that covers the topic of Meditation. Meditation is the practice of focusing and turning attention inward to the mind. Jeanie Marshall is the Official Guide to Meditation. Meditation Techniques of the Buddhist and Taoist Masters, by Daniel Odier, is a valuable resource for people interested in Meditation Techniques and it is available through Amazon and Barnes and Noble.
Odier guides the reader through the specifics of the mental disciplines and visualizations that Buddhist and Taoist masters have used for ages in their quest for illumination. To devote oneself to meditation, in the sense understood by Buddhists and Taoists, is to realize the understanding of how every fiber of our being converges with all creation.

He is the author of several works of nonfiction, including Tantric Quest and Desire: The Tantric Path to Awakening, and many novels. Under the name of Delacorta, he is the author of a series of mystery novels, one of which--Diva--was made into an award-winning film. He lives in Paris.
