520 _a"Brain research is beginning to produce evidence for something Buddhist practitioners of meditation have maintained for centuries: mental discipline and meditative practice can change the workings of the brain and allow people to achieve different levels of awareness. Those transformed states have traditionally been understood in transcendent terms, as something outside the world of physical measurement. But in the past few years, researchers at the University of Wisconsin working with Tibetan monks have translated those mental experiences into the scientific language of high-frequency gamma waves and brain synchrony, or co-ordination." (SPECTATOR) This article explains how meditation can affect the physical activity of the brain.
