Browsing through the comments, I discover that most commentators here have no knowledge of what is going on in the western world. The western scientists particularly physicists have high regard and praise Buddha Dharma as " mind science" 心智科學, with many experiments done by neuroscientists on and with practitioners. The results are inspiring and astonishing. They found out through mindfulness practitioners are able to change the brain, that is mind can affect matter and thus mind is not identical to brain albeit one one correspondence exist between certain region of brain n certain functions( cognitive and motor). Neuroplasticity was found by neuroscientists. Buddha Dharma is the scientific method of cultivating the mind so as to achieve full enlightenment.
