Practicing Mindfulness: An Introduction to Meditation

I've noticed a lot of people asking about meditation and I wanted to add this to our temple library. It's from the audio CD "Practicing Mindfulness: An Introduction to Meditation" from The Great Courses. The lecturer is the illustrious Professor Mark W. Muesse from Rhodes College in Tennessee. Here's a link to his biography from the company webpage (which also includes a link to purchase the CD if you wish): http://www.thegreatcourses.com/professors/mark-w-muesse/
