and brain scanners:
Helpful? Who uses brain scanners and «Altered Traits» for his daily meditation practice?
Milarepa had to go with Marpa to India to find what he was looking for.

Jack Kornfield was a student of Ajahn Chah
Jack Kornfield trained as a Buddhist monk in the monasteries of Thailand, India and Burma. He has taught meditation internationally since 1974 and is one of the key teachers to introduce Buddhist mindfulness practice to the West.
On reddit we can read that Jack Kornfield is a Fraud:
There are complaints that Jack Kornfield meditation courses are very exensive. Are there similar complaints about Lhagsam Meditation Courses in Zurich? And has this something to do, that the teachers of Lhagsam have read «Altered Traits» and where trained in a brain scanner? (this is only a hypothesis of Peter Gamma from www.petergamma.org.) But what is your opinion about this topic? Write it in the comments below.
