In this book, readers will find lucid explanation about generosity, morality, concentration and insight meditation (dana, sila, samatha and vipassana). For the benefit of meditators, the successive development of wisdom according to the stages of insight is expounded in a simple manner so that readers can comprehend them clearly. To encourage meditators in their practice this book also deals with ways to undertake meritorious deeds so as to avoid rebirth in the four woeful planes. For those striving to be a stream-winner (sotapanna) in this present life, the four conditions to become a stream-winner are explicitly expounded. As insight meditation deals with the cultivation of the mind, it is of utmost importance to learn how to develop the mind in order to fully comprehend the Noble Dhamma and attain Path and Fruition Knowledge (magga-phala nana).
