This is remarkable teaching, bearing directly on pshological research on the brain-mind interface. Many thanks.

Insights at the Edge podcasts are very educationally enlightening and appropriately named. There is always an interesting perspective with a certain commonality and depth of perception I find intriguing. I’ve listened to many but not all since I’ve only recently discovered them. I’m curious as to whether or not any have comments included regarding the viability of “brain entrainment” as an independent or an element of participation with Tai Chi or Yoga in one’s quests to touch the “truth”. Thanks much.
