Description

There seem to be two different versions of this program – a CD edition (sold on Amazon at http://www.amazon.com/Break-Through-Pain-Step-Step/dp/159179…) and a cassette edition (sold on Shinzen’s website at http://www.shinzen.org). Based on the sound quality, I’m guessing this is the cassette version. If so, it’s great quality for a cassette rip. I would love to give credit to the original uploader, but I don’t remember where I downloaded it.Also, there doesn’t seem to be a description in either place, and I haven’t listened to this all the way through yet, so if someone who listens to this could write a description, it would be much appreciated.==========Edit: Here is the description posted in the comments below by TheMan.
