Is for instance the Mind Monitor – a tool for the working horses among the meditators?
With the Mind Monitor you can set an alarm when alpha is high. So when you are relaxed and alpha is high, there is an alarm which says that you can start working again? But who lives like that? A life guided by the Mind Monitor alarm?
Peter Gamma from www.petergamma.org
has become a critic about physiological devices for meditators.
Are n t all of them lousy tools for meditators, starting from the Muse headband up to brain scanners?
Since which meditation master at the highest level uses those?
- whould Milarepa use those tools?
- would Ajahn Chah use those tools?
- Does Jack Kornfield use those tools?
- Does Fred von Allmen use those tools?
The view of Peter Gamma from www.petergamma.org
These physiolgical devices are helpful, but only as an assistant, and not as a device to guide your life.
The Muse headband for instance is entitled as a tool for technology assisted meditation. And is this not what all of those tools are, from the Muse headband up to brain scanners?
