I don't think there's a big difference from what we do now. Right now we use our hands or speech combined with phone/glasses/watches/computer as tools to communicate with the internet/information. This technolo

Interesting to see that everyone here is so eager to assume that the article is right. The article might be right, but it's also just gossip.

You're right, if you don't give the emotion any energy it will not persist very long, simple but hard.

That's quiete a leap there. True, there were a lot of politics in Tibet, same for all the other buddhist countries. But to counter your point: anger is probably best surpressed if you want to easily dominate people. Your sutra is from

The books by Frans de Waal about this topic are very interesting. He's a dutch ethologist, researching the social behaviour and emotions of animals, mainly primates I think. Some of his quotes, source Wikipedia: "To endow animals

My screen is a bit too small and I can't see the complete picture. Makes me have to scroll back and forth to read the text and look at the image. For my screen I would have preferred gallery in this case.

Interesting. Derren Brown, English mentalist, describes in one of his books how he deliberately failes every now and then to make it more convincing there are pschycic abilities at play instead of a mechanic trick.

I agree. The idea of "wiring" of the brain is very old school. Would have been more interesting if the article (maybe the research did) asked how this wiring came to be: instinctive or nurture. Not a lot of our wiring is instincti
