  • But where not most of these pictures shown before?
  • Is this long-term study with Matthieu Ricard still going on?
  • We found at other places pictures which where published, but no scientific data, which where an evidence of ongoing scientific studies, but only the pictures where published,.
  • Are only pictures published, and not scientific data, since the scientific data are not not good to this date?
