First Sentence
In a modern guidebook on living and dying, the Tibetan Buddhist master Sogyal Rinpoche identifies three methods of meditation that he has combined into a single practice for bringing body, speech, and mind into alignment in meditation-the use of an object such as an image, reciting a mantra, and concentration on breathing, called "watching the breath."
