What Buddhists Know About Science
| Quote: |
Tibetan Buddhists described advanced neurological concepts 2,000 years before science had the technology to discover them. By Daithí Ó hAnluain.
...
In one example, subjects were asked to watch a video of two teams passing a ball. One team wore white shirts, and one black, and subjects were asked to count how many times players in white shirts passed the ball to each other.
What subjects didn't notice was the man in a gorilla suit who walked on screen, waved at the audience and walked off again.
This established that humans perceive only what they are looking for, not what's there. Oh, and Buddhists figured this out 2,000 years ago, while modern science caught up in the last two decades.
