"The Science of Enlightenment , inspired by teacher/author Shinzen Young's audio teachings, is a guide to meditation that weaves instruction from numerous spiritual traditions, technological and scientific approaches to meditation, and Young's own illustrations and analogies. Written for meditators of all levels, Young presents an exploration of two aspects of meditation--calming and clarifying--known in the Buddhist tradition as shamatha and vipassana . With chapters such as 'The Realm of Power' and 'The Real No Self,' 'e¨this book illuminates how to use our practical cognitive capacities in conjunction with compassion in order to realize our full humanity." --Lion's Roar "Part 'hard-nosed researcher,' and part 'poetic dharma teacher,' Shinzen Young brings fifty years of meditation experience and exploration of the best of what East and West have to offer to bear, showing how science and spirituality are coming together in what he calls the 'Marriage of the Millennium.' The experiences of meditators can now be measured and verified. In demonstrating that while their beliefs may differ, what happens in the neurological systems of adepts during contemplation is similar---so science supports the unity at the heart of the great spiritual traditions. Shinzen also describes his antimeditative childhood, how hashish followed by a chewy chocolate brownie once brought him to a state of samadhi and oneness, and how the horrific death of a beloved mentor transformed him from an armchair academic to a committed monastic. 'Let me be clear: enlightenment is real,' he writes. 'Not only is it real, but it is something that can be achieved by normal human beings through the systematic practice of meditation.' Shinzen's 'happiest thought' involves two steps: first, discover a biophysical model for enlightenment (assuming that one exists), then create a technology to reliably facilitate it (if that's possible). Such an achievement, he affirms, though not yet within reach, holds promise that enlightenment could go viral and dramatically change the course of human history for the better." --Foreword Reviews, "The Science of Enlightenment , inspired by teacher/author Shinzen Young's audio teachings, is a guide to meditation that weaves instruction from numerous spiritual traditions, technological and scientific approaches to meditation, and Young's own illustrations and analogies.

Synopsis
"Enlightenment"--is it a myth or is it real? In every spiritual tradition, inner explorers have discovered that the liberated state is in fact a natural experience, as real as the sensations you are having right now--and that through the investigation of your own thoughts, feelings, and perceptions you can awaken to clear insight and a happiness independent of conditions. For decades, one of the most engaging teachers of our time has illuminated the many dimensions of awakening--but solely at his live retreats and on audio recordings. Now, with The Science of Enlightenment , Shinzen Young brings to readers an uncommonly lucid guide to mindfulness meditation for the first time: how it works and how to use it to enhance your cognitive capacities, your kindness and connection with the world, and the richness of all your experiences. As thousands of his students and listeners will confirm, Shinzen is like no other teacher you've ever encountered. He merges scientific clarity, a rare grasp of source-language teachings East and West, and a gift for sparking insight through unexpected analogies, illustrations, humor, and firsthand accounts that reveal the inner journey to be as wondrous as any geographical expedition. Join him here to explore: Universal insights spanning Buddhism, Christian and Jewish mysticism, shamanism, the yogas of India, and many other paths How to begin and navigate your own meditation practice Concentration, clarity , and equanimity --the core catalysts of awakening Impermanence --its many aspects and how to work with them Experiencing the "wave" and "particle" natures of self Purification and clarification --how we digest mental blockages and habits through inner work Emerging neuroscience research, the future of enlightenment, and much more For meditators of all levels and beliefs--especially those who think they've heard it all--this many-faceted gem will be sure to surprise, provoke, illuminate, and inspire., "Enlightenment"--is it a myth or is it real?
