Indeed, its major premise heeds a Zenmaster's advice to be less self-centered. Yes, it is \"one more book of wordsabout Zen,\" as the author concedes, yet this book explains meditative practices from the perspectiveof a \" neural Zen.\" The latest findings in brain research inform its suggestions.In Meditating Selflessly, James Austin -- Zen practitioner, neurologist, andauthor of three acclaimed books on Zen and neuroscience -- guides readers toward that open awarenessalready awaiting them on the cushion and in the natural world.Austin offersconcrete advice -- often in a simplified question-and-answer format -- about different ways tomeditate. He clarifies both the concentrative and receptive styles of meditation. Drawing widelyfrom the exciting new field of contemplative neuroscience, Austin helps resolve an ancient paradox:why both insight wisdom and selflessness arise simultaneously during enlightenedstates of consciousness.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51812605690144,"sku":"NEW0262015870","price":122.91,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/61e59uzrEGL.jpg?v=1781028673","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/meditating-selflessly-practical-neural-zen-0262015870","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
