The state of the affairs of meditation research projects in Switzerland in the year 2024

Last Updated on May 21, 2024 by pg@petergamma.org

The enlightened Milarepa has spread his knowledge from Tibet all over the world:

And Milarepa was very influential, not only in Tibet. And nobody is allowed to climb onto the Mount Kailash up to the present day. We found one exeption. The first permit for the climb to Mount Kailash was granted to Reinhold Messner in 1985, who applied for a permit for the surrounding area. But he decided not to carry it out.

Milarepa wrote furthermore 100 000 songs:

and was Tibet’s most famous poet. Peter Gamma from www.petergamma.org is not the most famous poet from Switzerland. but all the same, he has written more than 4 000 posts on his page. But what does he conclude about meditation research in Switzerland after he has written all of these 4 000 posts?

Is there more to meditation research in Switzerland than:

Alex Gamma at the Swiss Federal Institute of Zurich:

who wrote a paper in PLOS ONE about:

The Minimal Phenomenal Experience questionnaire (MPE-92M): Towards a phenomenological profile of “pure awareness” experiences in meditators:

And projects at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne about:

a Sensors paper which uses the Polar H10 to estimate breathing rate from it.

  • And we do not know how this book relates to projects at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne.
  • But we found it there when we searched for meditation research projects:
  • The book seems not to be published at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne.
  • But Peter Gamma from www.petergamma.org remembers that there some strange projects around with “youth biathletes” “breathing rate” and “Polar H10”.
  • But we do not remember if these projects really where performed at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne.
  • But let’s assume they where.
  • For whom are those interesting?
  • And is it worth to investigate further about projects like these which where eventually performed in Switzerland?
