Well thank you mr. Mann for your .02$ . So just because he's got long hair he's woo in your book? Or is their something you take issue with?
Basically I find his theory about shrinking the negative side of the emotional center of the Limpic system interesting and might offer an explaination of the Buddha's enlightenment and the main subject theme of "ending all suffering" that pervade Buddhist thought. Also the sense of self disappears when one become's enlighten to the point of "ending all suffering", and his explainations intriguing. But that is all pretty much woo woo to you you.
