First, this book introduces the reader to relevant brain structure and function. It presents various studies of brain activity using functional MRI's to bolster the case that there is a neurological basis for the two types of thinking and perceiving - ego-centered and egoless. Other studies are presented that describe the neurological changes associated with mind training - meditation and mindfulness.
Second, this book details several techniques for meditation, mindfulness, and letting go, followed by a step-by-step guide applying these techniques. Through this process of strengthened and targeted concentration, the mind is deconditioned from its previous ego-centered thought patterns. This leads to the unveiling of the original egoless self and an alternate awareness of self and reality.
