Neurobiology of We part 7 of 9

Speakers: Roshi Joan Halifax, Daniel Siegel, MD

Roshi leads a meditation practice in metta, and cellist Nels Denman plays a lovely piece. Roshi begins the session by pointing out that in traditional Zen practice, there is no explicit instruction. However, Westerners typically need overt instruction, so we make allowances. Both Buddhism and science value continual discovery. Dan calls on volunteers to sing as an entertaining illustration of brain integration. He then describes integration as the system moving in a harmonious pattern with the absence of rigidity or chaos. Integration therefore reduces or eliminates suffering.
