Guest guest Posted December 6, 2005 Report Share Posted December 6, 2005 POWER OF OM Brain researchers discuss meditations myriad benefits. Meditation seems to energise the sleep-deprived. It seems to help with concentration. It even seems to bolster the very structure of the brain as we age. Neuroscientists presenting their latest research at a convention of 34,000 colleagues recently had so much praise for meditation that it was starting to sound like a mantra. Their work fits into a growing body of data that tries to bring modern science to bear on age-old methods to quiet the mind. Enthusiasts have long touted the health benefits of meditative practices such as chanting, yoga, and prayer. Now, using the latest high-tech tools of neuroscience and biochemistry, they are teasing out how those benefits work. And increasingly, they are focusing on how meditation may help not only the body but the brain.

Ours is a world of nuclear giants and ethical infants. We know more about war than we know about peace, more about killing that we know about living. -- General Omar Bradley DSL Something to write home about.
