- kristofferR 12y agoHasn't that always been "known" to be the case among the sane rational users?
- lipoicacid 12y agoThat was my interpretation, and the article talks about ego death. When one removes ego, it mimics "zen mind, beginner's mind" where you are more open to more ideas. In theory.
- shawnz 12y agoSure, "known" in the sense of "highly suspected", but of course that doesn't absolve the need for real science on the issue.
- kristofferR 12y agoI completely agree. The way the_cat_kittles phrased it though made it seem like he thought it was a new concept.
