Jhāna and Peak Experiences

from The Contemplative Science Podcast Hosted by Mark Miller

Let's talk about Jhāna, some of the peak experiences on the spiritual journey. Here to lead us on a journey into these peak experiences is cognitive neuroscientist and wellbeing aficionado Jonas Mago. Jonas is currently pursuing doctoral studies at McGill University, diving into the various cognitive mechanisms that underlie human flourishing. He reflects on findings and anecdotes from his pioneering research: exploring Jhāna as a refined ability to ‘slip into a pocket’ of deep concentration, with huge potential for positive habit-building and self improvement! ------ This podcast has a single purpose: to help its listeners integrate the practical lessons of contemplative life.
