Pro-gamers can turn off the default mode network and that explains why there performance is so high.

How is this post just me acting out my ego in the usual ways? Is this post just me venting and justifying my selfishness? Are the things you are posting in alignment with principles of higher consciousness and higher stages of ego development? Are you acting in a mature or immature way? Are you being selfish or selfless in your communication? Are you acting like a monkey or like a God-like being?

Pro-anything turns off the DMN. That is what flow is.


Intrinsic joy is revealed in the marriage of meaning and being.

Now read MCTB, and then read a bunch of other books because MCTB is very left-brained and a bit neurotic, and can lead certain personality types astray.  Then do at least one 10 day retreat.  Then you will start to understand the path, just a little.

i respect Ingram but he doesn't resonate with me, maybe i am too left-brained; what he says here about Zen is what gets my juices flowing, just go straight to the target ... he also talked eloquently about the Theravada maps towards the end here and i might go back to them at some later point
