CHAPTER

Challenging Presuppositions and Exploring Consciousness in Meditation and Philosophy

This chapter explores the idea that cross historical and cross cultural traditions challenge the presupposition that our current state of consciousness is the only way to gain knowledge or access different dimensions of being. It emphasizes the connection between meditation, philosophy, epistemology, and ontology, highlighting the need to experience different states of consciousness to truly understand and speak about them.
