Another example of how the Buddha's Dharma can be used for other purposes.

The only worrying thing see in the article is that the author claims to be analysing from a Buddhist perspective, but spends half his time quoting new-age Hindu teachers.

Re: Neuroscience Meets Abhidharma
Speaks for itself, really.One well known yogi regularly interviewed by scientists, Sadhguru (Jaggi Vasudev) always repeats that intellect and logic are like sharp knives that can dissect and deliver insights into the anatomy of the object of study. However, he adds that to understand the unity of complex phenomena, such as the mind and consciousness, we need to apply holistic and experiential methods of inquiry to make it possible for us to appreciate its broad scope in its entirety.
