Cerebral control and attention. Science and wisdom.
Theoretical explanations of the subcortical and cortical mechanisms of attention are given. All psychophysiological approaches must be reevaluated in terms of attention. Excessive vigilance is in reality a lack of vigilance (law of optimum). Good conditioning strengthens needed vigilance and respects our liberty (liberating conditioning). The legitimacy of traditional wisdom (Zen) can be better understood by the grace of science.
