看过很多所谓的科学与佛学之间的牵扯文章,当时看了很热闹,回头想想,都是扯蛋的文章,其实佛学本来是相当简单的,大部分都是关于如何实操的,对于宇宙啊、哲学啊,佛陀本人是不感兴趣的,他的核心的理论都是为了一个目的:灭苦。玄而有玄的文章,实际上离真正的佛学远之又远...
评分the writing quality and the depth of understanding about the science part of this author are pretty so so, which kind-of ruin the topic. Anyway, this book conveys a different (with a previous book) view how brain works: takes-in info, producing feelings (w...

评分这本书可以称为是科学版“无为”的镜像版——科学版“佛学” 一、苦:快乐是短暂的,痛苦是永恒的 1、佛陀观点:苦即不满足。 2、科学解释:人是基因编码的程序,基因通过对欲望(即对快乐的预期)来驱使人做对基因传播有利的事。欲望满足即为乐,不能满足即为苦。但基因设定快...
评分【看到105页想法】 (1)作者很啰嗦,像是在给小朋友讲道理,翻来覆去。难道是因为佛教在美国甚至英语国家普及度不够才会用这样初级的表达方式? (2)关于佛学、心理学及进化论的内容,差不多都是老生常谈。关于冥想的部分对我来说是新知识。但是通过冥想抑制疼痛,听起来怎么...

Why Buddhism is True: The Science and Philosophy of Meditation and Enlightenment is a 2017 book by journalist and evolutionary psychologist Robert Wright. As of August 2017, the book had peaked at The New York Times No. 4 bestseller in hardcover nonfiction.
In Why Buddhism is True, Wright advocates a secular, Westernized form of Buddhism focusing on the practice of mindfulness meditation and stripped of supernatural beliefs such as reincarnation. He further argues that more widespread practice of meditation could lead to a more reflective and empathetic population and reduce political tribalism. In line with his background, Wright draws heavily on evolutionary biology and evolutionary psychology to defend the correctness of Buddhism's diagnosis of the causes of human suffering. He argues the modern psychological idea of the modularity of mind resonates with the Buddhist teaching of no-self (anatman).
同样的实验结果,在我眼里只是一个有趣的心理学新发现,而在大神手里就成了重塑世界观的武器。
评分好看好看!在Psychology的理论部分和上半年读的Kurzban关于Modular Mind的书有很多重合,读起来毫不费力。Coursera上的Buddhism and Modern Psyhology一课也是本书很好的primer。
评分所谓mindfulness里面,读过的最靠谱的书 也是到现在为止,和心理学相关的书最好的
评分听完的,畅销书的路子
评分佛学内容的书可以成为畅销书 很值得高兴
