ALAN WALLACE AND THE SHAMATHA PROJECT

Posted on May 19th, 2009 by jhalifax : none jhalifax
i am so looking forward to the program with alan wallace that will happen may 29-31 at upaya. he is an extraordinary teacher, has opened buddhist teachings on meditation in a way that makes them very accessible. all of upaya's residents will be in the program, as i feel his way of teaching meditation is important for our sangha to absorb. his shamatha project, which had cliff saron as the chief neuroscience researcher, is the most ambitious neuro research project on meditation ever done. cliff did a stunning presentation at the recent mind and life meeting in dharamsala with his holiness. new and stunning unpublished results were presented at this gathering. am glad that alan will be covering this as well. upaya@upaya.org
