Venerable Dr. Yifa - Does Transpersonal Psychology Revamp Reality? 

The whole point is to not try to do anything was my understanding

Morphing Reality But the mind has to intend not to try and it will be impossible. As the song says Let it go, let it go and thereafter have everything.

Zatoichiable impossible in those terms, but without intention.. just being, as cliche as it sounds, is not impossible, it is quite difficult though.

Morphing Reality no wonder monks has to be in the mountains. Buddhism is dying due to the difficulty to practice the religion as Buddha predicted.

Maybe as soon as you name it you constrain the infinite potential of it.

she did if you half "there" already

That'd be nice, indeed.

You can't compare the two. In fact, in Buddhism it's discouraged to seek and crave after mental stimulants.

Yeah, but both parties spout pseudo insightful drivel.

Bishbashboshboshbosh What is pseudo about calming and training the mind? Meditation is proven to work. There are just numerous of studies that prove the benefits of meditation all ranging from better memory, increased pain tolerance, slow brain aging, and more grey matter. It's known to be effective against depression and other mental problems as well.

While true, maybe one has aversion to certain claims in the various views of Buddhism? It's one thing to calm and train the mind, and it's something much deeper to see the inherent self-lessness nature of consciousness. These are facts. They become clouded with mysticism though, such as the views of many different planes for beings, and some schools of Buddhism that infer reincarnation is based on moralistic implications. Of course, the paradox begins as the greatest jewel of contemplative efforts - understanding the self/soul/ego is an illusion, and reality is "nondual" - is what's being implied to reincarnate from this perspective in a dualistic manner. It's weird. That's not even getting into the topic of ESP as the video points to, which would appear to be an unprovable claim at present.
