The Human Default Consciousness and Its Disruption: Insights From an EEG Study of Buddhist Jhāna Meditation

Summary:
- The study explores the concept of human default consciousness (DCs) and its disruption through Buddhist jhāna meditation, contrasting it with other states like anesthesia and coma.
- DCs are defined as a sensory consciousness that evaluates experiences against personal needs, forming the basis of self-experience.
- Jhāna meditation aims to intentionally withdraw from DCs, leading to a state of stillness called jhāna consciousness, which facilitates insight.
- EEG findings from the study reveal unique brain activity patterns during jhāna meditation, including spindle activity and high-voltage slow waves, differing from typical meditation EEG profiles.
- The study suggests that experienced meditators can consciously evoke clonic seizure-like activity, indicating a profound disruption in their DCs.
- The paper highlights the need for more in-depth studies on jhāna meditation, as previous research has largely focused on other forms of meditation.
- The practice of jhāna meditation involves overcoming hindrances such as sensory desire and restlessness, which are seen as key features of the DCs.
- The jhāna states progress from initial attention to deeper states of equanimity, characterized by increasingly refined subjective experiences.
- The second and higher jhānas focus on mastering bodily energies and tranquility, leading to a state of mind-body integration known as samādhi.
- The exploration of jhāna meditation provides insights into the subjective experience of consciousness, raising questions about the nature of the subject-object relationship in neuroscience.
