Meditation als exemplarischer Gegenstand von Grenzdiskursen im religiösen FeldErb, Benedikt 12 May 2021 (has links)
Meditation liegt im Trend. In den verschiedensten gesellschaftlichen Bereichen lässt
sich diese Feststellung auch ohne eine erschöpfende Analyse nachvollziehen. Charakteristisch ist dabei in den letzten Jahren in aller Regel die Dominanz eines
neurowissenschaftlichen oder -psychologischen und damit verbunden eines überwiegend
gesundheitsorientierten Zugriffs auf den Gegenstand Meditation. In einem
vorangegangenen Forschungsprojekt diente dieses Szenario als Ausgangslage, um religionstheoretische Implikationen der neurowissenschaftlichen Meditationsforschung herauszuarbeiten.8 In der vorliegenden Arbeit möchte ich hingegen gerade das diskursive Geflecht um das zeitgenössische Verständnis von Meditation selbst untersuchen.
Dabei stellt die überwiegend neurowissenschaftliche Meditationsforschung
weiterhin den Türöffner meines Zugangs dar, da sie – soweit zumindest die Annahme – als maßgeblicher Motor des aktuellen Meditationsbooms fungiert.:Verzeichnisse

How Do Theories of Cognition and Consciousness in Ancient Indian Thought Systems Relate to Current Western Theorizing and Research?Sedlmeier, Peter, Srinivas, Kunchapudi 17 August 2016 (has links) (PDF)
Unknown to most Western psychologists, ancient Indian scriptures contain very rich, empirically derived psychological theories that are, however, intertwined with religious and philosophical content. This article represents our attempt to extract the psychological theory of cognition and consciousness from a prominent ancient Indian thought system: Samkhya-Yoga. We derive rather broad hypotheses from this approach that may complement and extend Western mainstream theorizing. These hypotheses address an ancient personality theory, the effects of practicing the applied part of Samkhya-Yoga on normal and extraordinary cognition, as well as different ways of perceiving reality. We summarize empirical evidence collected (mostly without reference to the Indian thought system) in diverse fields of research that allows for making judgments about the hypotheses, and suggest more specific hypotheses to be examined in future research. We conclude that the existing evidence for the (broad) hypotheses is substantial but that there are still considerable gaps in theory and research to be filled. Theories of cognition contained in the ancient Indian systems have the potential to modify and complement existing Western mainstream accounts of cognition. In particular, they might serve as a basis for arriving at more comprehensive theories for several research areas that, so far, lack strong theoretical grounding, such as meditation research or research on aspects of consciousness.
