illusion, moksha, and the brain

Submitted by Paul Grobstein on Thu, 01/28/2010 - 4:20pm.

Perhaps we actually do all see/think more differently than we normally recognize?  And perhaps moksha is an aspiration rather than something that has been/could be achieved?  The relation between Hindu teachings and neurobiology is more than worth further exploration.  See Re-imagining the sacred self and Conquering the I-function. See also The unconscious as bridging the intellectual/spiritual and the academic/personal and Vulnerability, heaven, and reason.
