Zen and the Brain: Toward an Understanding of Meditation and Consciousness by James H. Austin
Requirements: PDF Reader, 5.9MB
Overview: Aldous Huxley called humankind’s basic trend toward spiritual growth the “perennial philosophy.” In the view of James Austin, the trend implies a “perennial psychophysiology” — because awakening, or enlightenment, occurs only when the human brain undergoes substantial changes. What are the peak experiences of enlightenment? How could these states profoundly enhance, and yet simplify, the workings of the brain? Zen and the Brain presents the latest evidence. In this book Zen Buddhism becomes the opening wedge for an extraordinarily wide-ranging exploration of consciousness.
