In «The Mind’s Own Physician: A Scientific Dialogue with the Dalai Lama on the Healing Power of Meditation»

Theravāda Buddhist monk Ajahn Amaro writes about

“mental health” & “enlightened”

«In the Buddhist tradition you are not completely sane until you are fully enlightened»

editors are

Jon Kabat-Zinn & Richard Davidson

The quote of Ajahn Amaro can be found on page 33, second paragraph of the page:

If we look at the table of content of the

The Mind’s Own Physician: A Scientific Dialogue with the Dalai Lama on the Healing Power of Meditation

we ask ourselves:

is it far from the table of content you will have from the site www.petergamma.org sooner or later?

The Meditation Research Institute Switzerland (MRIS) is the personal website of Peter Gamma.

After 30 years of experience by Peter Gamma from www.petergamma.og about this topic:

and 20 years after a paper in PNAS has been published about a scientific way about meditation:

https://www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.0407401101

Peter Gamma from www.petergamma.org still does not know much more about this topic than what is written under www.petergamma.org on 3,294 pages.

This leaves a certain amount of a feeling of constant anger in Peter Gamma from www.petergamma.org, similar to what Milarepa experienced before his enlightenement:

And Peter Gamma from www.petergamma.org has learned more from Milarepa than from Richard R. Davidson and Jon Kabat-Zinn to this date, more which is helpful for him and his personal development, and also more from Milarepa than from his psychiatrists who treated him for more than 30 years without successs.
