Brief Suggestion on Mindfulness

Brief and simplified discernment on the context of mindfulness. And as well as elaboration on Eight Weeks of Meditation Doesn't Change the Brain, Study Finds | The Scientist Magazine® (the-scientist.com). And to strengthen and complement the global community inspirations, aspirations, yearnings, collaborations, and efforts as a whole:

!.0 Mindfulness is about mindful care or body-mind care (in particularly when the mind belongs to the subtle body-mind rather than the organic biologic body) rather than just brain and organic biologic body care. 

In ancient days, mindfulness was developed as holistic and non-dual ways of being and becoming locally (and therefore also) and non-locally in the known physical world. And beyond. Mindfulness implied mind and heart. And therefore, body-mind or form-formless or many sentient composite body-mind system. And for which philosophies and practices expressed through metaphors such as "Dependent Origination", "Dependent Arising", "Heart Sutra", "Emptiness", Form and Formless", "Self and No-Self", "Flux", and "Impermanence" existed.

And was not about direct rather indirect brain science since such science and technology were not developed and applied until modern days. And as such, modern neuro (and expanding into biologic-genetic sciences) and biologic-genetic sciences strengthen and complement body-mind science since even through mind and brain are not the same; they are interdependent and interconnected or intertwined and entangled or irreducible (as a brief illustration What can Near Death Experiences teach us about consciousness? (sciwizlive.com)). And therefore, there are not only correlation, rather also causation. And therefore, the many layers of the many sentient composite body-mind system can be interpolated, extrapolated, correlated, and inferred

Another simple way of saying is mindfulness is just a compact interpreted and translated term or metaphor. And therefore, the whole content and context are not encompassed. And can be stated that it was not only about nurturing, development, transformation, and purification of body-mind or wholeness of all senses (inner and outer senses rather than reducible to brain and outer senses). Rather, also about the essence and nature of being and becoming locally and non-locally in the known physical world. And beyond. Another simple ways of saying is these are interdependent and interconnected.

2.0 In holistic and non-dual definition, mindfulness implied mindful care which implied heartful care which implied body-mind care which implied ways of being and becoming care which implied the essence and nature of being and becoming locally and non-locally or they are irreducible (as a brief and simple illustration Zoltan Cser - Buddhism - YouTube). And therefore, indicated holistic transformation and emergence of body-mind or many sentient commposite body-mind care and transformation locally and non-locally as briefly and simply discerned in 1.0

3.0 From 1.0 and 2.0, heart and mind implied body-mind or form-formless. And as such, is about naturalness-spiritual development through nurturing, developing, purifying, and transforming the real self of the many sentient composite body-mind system through the essence and nature of being and becoming, And since holistic and non-dual, are local and non-local ways of being and becoming in the known physical world. And reasons for 4 Noble Truth, 8 + 2 Noble Path, and complementary practices.

4.0 From 1.0-3.0, is about holistic and non-dual ways of being and becoming locally and non-locally in the known physical world. And beyond basing on the Essence, Nature, and Ground of Being and Becoming. And the Essence, Nature, and Ground of Nature and Becoming. 

5.0 Beside the empirical scientific concept and method such as Eight Weeks of Meditation Doesn't Change the Brain, Study Finds | The Scientist Magazine® (the-scientist.com), mind and heart or body-mind as a whole, in particularly the subtle body-mind are unknown or not analyzed. And not parts of the scientific concepts, methods, and practices. 

That does not mean (is reasonable and practical) that certain practices are developed as interdependent and interconnected stand alone practices such as meditation, contemplation, and  nutrition-dietary care. However, they should be made known or practitioners should be made aware of the fundamental philosophies, concepts, and methods as they can best match their inspirations, aspirations, and yearnings as well as basing on development and living conditions and circumstances. And as essential, desired empirical experience, progresses, and achievements.

This brief and simplified discernment is also to inspire and encourage expansion and development of appropriate philosophy and science. And complementary scientific concepts, methods, practices, and technology to advance and better the human conditions, experience, potentials, wellbeing, and common and greater good. And essential solutions to development and living for long lasting benefits to and betterment for all or sentient locally and non-locally in the known physical world. And far beyond.  ​​​
