INVESTIGATING THE MIND: Exchanges Between Buddhism and the Biobehavioral Sciences on How the Mind WorksIf you're imagining a deity, can you picture it all at once, or must you construct it bit by bit in your mind? Is it possible to "remodel" the brain through meditation? The answers to these and other questions of practical interest to meditators are given in this great series of Mind and Life talks with cognitive scientists and the Dalai Lama, held at Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Topics include: attention and cognitive control, mental imagery, and emotion, among others. This is a fascinating exploration into the inner workings of the mind. | |
