The book explores the individual differences in learning and practicing meditation, while also providing insights on how to learn and practice effectively. The book comprehensively covers the research in brain areas and networks that mediate the positive effects of meditation upon physical and mental health. Though it examines how people differ in how they learn and practice meditation, it underscores how underlying mechanisms differ in learning and practicing meditation and how they remain unclear to researchers. This book addresses the research gap and explores the brain science behind meditation.

Yoga and mindfulness activities, with roots in Asian traditions such as Hinduism or Buddhism, have been brought into growing numbers of public schools since the 1970s. While they are commonly assumed to be secular educational tools, Candy Gunther Brown asks whether religion is truly left out of the equation in the context of public-school curricula. An expert witness in four legal challenges, Brown scrutinized unpublished trial records, informant interviews, and legal precedents, as well as insider documents, some revealing promoters of 'Vedic victory' or 'stealth Buddhism' for public-school children. The legal challenges are fruitful cases for Brown's analysis of the concepts of religious and secular. While notions of what makes something religious or secular are crucial to those who study religion, they have special significance in the realm of public and legal norms.

Eine Definition von mystischer Erfahrung bildet den Angelpunkt dieser Studie, die das kontemplative Gebet des Centering Prayer von Thomas Keating OCSO kritisch würdigt und weiterentwickelt. Seit dem Zweiten Vatikanischen Konzil ist die Durchdringung der christlichen Berufung der theologischen Ethik nachdrücklich aufgegeben. Mit Blick auf die Berufung zu einem spirituell-religiösen Leben ist es daher zentral, die Schnittstelle zwischen dem sittlichen Anspruch einer philosophisch und theologisch deutbaren Wirklichkeit und dem eines personalen Gottes zu erforschen. Unter Bezug auf Heinrich Rombach, Karl Rahner und Alfons Auer wird eine kontemplativ induzierte Ethik entfaltet, die den Fokus auf die in der Kontemplation gewonnenen Einsicht in das 'je Bessere' des Handelns richtet.
