    Before discovering this talk, I found and listened to Jinpa's "A conversation about Buddhism and science" interview on KZread, uploaded five months ago, which I would recommend listening to. There he speaks of the limits to integrating Buddhist principles with science and Western psychology. Two differences are critical: that feelings of empathy are not compassion. And that American mindfulness teachers have removed principles of mindfulness and compassion from the ethical framework of Buddhism. Buddhism has altars, god images, and religious rituals as well as sitting meditation. Proponents such as Kabat-Zinn and Sam Harris have dumped that ethical framework to reach a generation which prefers to label itself as "spiritual-but-not-religious" and rejects formal ethics. Mindfulness is now something to market, not a way of ethical living, but another technique to remove oneself mentally from FEELING suffering, rather than facing its sources within us. To Buddhists mindfulness cannot be an isolated technique.

    I wish he'd been around and it was acceptable to think this way when I studied philosophy. It was hard headed heartless competitiveness mostly. Anything like this would have been thought to belong somewhere else, if anywhere at all. Better late etc.

    compassion benefits the compassionate. That proves the theory of psychological egoism.
