Prt 2: Upcoming Research with Delson -What will Jhana or Cessation look like?

Delson Armstrong explains some research he was personally involved with at two Netherlands Universities in which he was hooked up to a number of machines which measured his response to various stimuli. The researchers were looking very closely at the unique state of Cessation which was achieved in deep states of meditation. TWIM -Tranquil Wisdom Insight Meditation is based on the earliest Buddhist Suttas from the Majjhima Nikāya from the Pali Canon.
