In Mahayana Buddhism, bodhisattvas are described as beings striving for the highest knowledge who strive for “Buddhahood” on the path of “virtue perfection” or realize it within themselves in order to use it for the salvation of all living beings.
Richard R. Davidson:
Daniel Goleman:
If we look with the eyes of a Bodhisattva at those two, what is your opinion about those two, if we look into their eyes?
Someone has written somewhere, the eyes are the windows to a soul of a person. But what do we see if we look through this window into their souls?
Are Richard R. Davidson & Daniel Goleman: two Bodhisattva’s who care about other people’s souls? Or are these two people ware not with themselves, and want to sell us «science & meditation» which not has been proofen convincingly by other scientists? And are their key messages taken over by spiritual teachers mainly from Asia, re-written, and then scientific data are added, but in a way which is not convincing, which has not lead to sustainable follow up research projects?
If Peter Gamma from www.petergamma.org studies what they do, he often ends up with spiritual teachers such as Milarepa, which is more helpful for him personally than the knowledge found in popular scientific knowledge for instance in the best selling books of the above authors. And Peter Gamma from www.petergamma.org does not know of a convincing scientific proof of Milarepa’s reaching by Richard R. Davidson and Daniel Goleman.
