Altered Traits by Daniel Goleman and Richard J. Davidson
Billions: “Lamster”
"Science operates within a web of culture-bound assumptions that limit our view of what is possible, most powerfully for the behavioral sciences. Modern psychology had not known that Eastern systems offer means to transform a person's very being. When we looked through that alternate Eastern lens, we saw fresh possibilities. By now, mounting empirical studies confirm our early hunches: sustained mind training alters the brain both structurally and functionally, proof of concept for the neural basis of altered traits that practitioners' texts have described for millennia. What's more, we all can move along this spectrum, which seems to follow a rough dose-response algorithm, gaining benefits in accord with our efforts. Contemplative neuroscience, the emerging specialty which supplies the science behind altered traits, has reached maturity."
