"To advance this perspective, millions of people around the world practice yoga and meditation."
I don't think this is true though. I don't think most people who aren't Buddhist do Yoga for renouncing the material world, but just for getting in shape and perhaps relaxing. I think the premise here is wrong.

I had to stop reading after reading: "These findings suggest that spiritual Buddhist practices like yoga and meditation may not do what proponents typically say they do" I think comparing yoga/mediation in the context of our current society versus how a Buddhist practices is very apples and oranges.
