| I’m not sure this is the answer you’re looking for, my ‘area of expertise’ is completely unrelated to my current profession. | |
| In college, I studied Psychology because I’ve always had an interest in the ‘Hard-Problem of Consciousness’, as David Chalmers puts it. How and why are ‘we’ conscious, and what are ‘we’ really? | |
| While modern Psychology has come a long way in understanding, diagnosing, and treating different aspects of the human personality, it doesn’t that fundamental concept of *causality*. | |
| For that I began to study different religions and schools of philosophy, eventually getting hooked on some of the concepts associated with eastern thought. | |
| The core practice for cultivating greater self-awareness in most world religions is that of meditation. Now, the word ‘meditation’ is a bit like the word ‘sports’, with more versions and variations than I can write about within the 500 word limit, but here in the West the most well-known and practiced flavor is what’s known as ‘mindfulness’. |
