The Brain as a Non-Linear Optical Computer: Reflections on a 2-Week Jhana Meditation Retreat

In this episode, we discuss what it means to experience higher dimensions, personal backgrounds in meditation and philosophy, a Jhana meditation retreat protocol, commentary on the retreat lectures of Rob Burbea, and how QRI's paradigms find relevance in this context. We also recount the retreat timeline of states of consciousness, transformations, and effects on the psyche, and share new insights on attention heads, energy centers, and single-pointed attention. Finally, we discuss the effect of various scents and psychoactives on Jhana meditation.
