This chapter considers whether causal accounts of generation for material bodies are adequate in explaining how conscious awareness comes to have the...

최근 10여년 간 마음챙김 명상과 더불어 불교의 주요 수행법인 자비명상에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 이 연구는 불교 대승 전통에 기초하여 개발된 자애미소명상의 심리사회영적 영향에 대한 탐색적 연구이다. 연구 1에서 일반성인 참가자들은 실험집단(16명)과 대기자 집단(20명)으로 할당되었고, 사전, 사후 및 추후검사가 수행되었다. 실험집단은 통제집단에 비해 사후 및 추후점수에서 자기-관련변인(자기-자비, 자기-존중감), 사회적 관계변인(자비적 사랑, 사회적 연결감, 용서) 및 영성 관련 변인에서 통계적으로 유의한 차이를 보였다. 연구 2에서는 참가자 7명을 대상으로 포커스 그룹 인터뷰를 실시하여 수행 중 체험 및 수행 후 일상생활의 변화를 분석한 결과 신체적, 정서적, 인지적, 대인관계적...

In the last three decades, we have been witnessing a growing interest toward academic research on mindfulness practices based on Traditional Meditation (TM) and Buddhist precepts (Pagnini and Philips, 2015). Phenomenologically, meditation is a practice that could be meant as mind focalization on objects, body feelings, emotions and thoughts. It could have religious, spiritual, and philosophical...

Mindfulness meditation (or simply mindfulness) is an ancient method of attention training. Arguably, developed originally by the Buddha, it has been practiced by Buddhists over 2,500 years as part of their spiritual training. The popularity in mindfulness has soared recently following its adaptation as Mindfulness-Based Stress Management by Jon Kabat-Zinn (1995). Mindfulness is often compared...

Knowledge and its hierarchy with blights of every degree is one of the fundamental principles of mystical systems. Each mystical system seeks to show superior knowledge and transcendental in order to seek greater depth of truth to its followers. So the fundamental question in this study is about what is knowledge, and how we may achieve transcendent knowledge? To answer these questions, we have...

The article examines the phenomenon of lucid dreaming within a broader framework of other states of higher awareness, popularized mostly (but not only) within Hindu-Buddhist tradition. The author assumes that lucid dreaming may have more in common with Gurdjieff’s remembering oneself and mindfulness than with the normal waking state. Based on the survey of modern western lucid dreamers and...

In Thailand the pre-reform Therav?da meditation system, bor?n kamma??h?na, is now practised only by small and isolated groups. To promote detailed comparative study of bor?n kamma??h?na, the tradition of it taught at Wat Ratchasittharam, Thonburi, is explored through a translation of a text on ?n?p?nasati attributed to Suk Kaitheun, the head of its lineage. This is followed by a detailed...

Mindfulness originated in the Buddhist tradition as a way of cultivating clarity of thought. Despite the fact that this behavior is best captured using critical thinking (CT) assessments, no studies have examined the effects of mindfulness on CT or the mechanisms underlying any such possible relationship. Even so, mindfulness has been suggested as being beneficial for CT in higher education. CT...
