A Sinhala-language handbook on meditation practice by Rev. Uthurawala Dhammarathana Thero, issued by the Colombo publisher M. D. Gunasena & Co. The text is in Sinhala throughout, so a reading knowledge of the language is needed; buyers outside Sri Lanka should be clear on that before ordering.
The book sets out the methods needed to develop meditation in practice, presented in simple terms. The publisher describes it as a meditation manual that a lay person or an ordained monk can use with equal ease — that is, it is pitched at anyone taking up the practice rather than at a specialist readership. The title itself refers to methods for the four meditation subjects.
M. D. Gunasena is a long-established Colombo publishing house with a substantial Sinhala list, and Buddhist practice titles of this kind form part of it. This is a working handbook rather than a scholarly study: the emphasis falls on how the practice is done.
