Meditation is RISKY: Willoughby Britton

Willoughby Britton, Scott Carney, 1/4/24; Dhr. Seven, Amber Larson (eds.), Wisdom Quarterly
What if something happens on the inside? Shouldn't we all play it safe and just stay ignorant?

Why do so many meditators want to kill this neuroscientist?
(Scott CarneyScott Carney Investigates: When Brown University Prof. Willoughby Britton set out to study the potential negative side effects of meditation, she never expected that the [super peaceful Buddhist] community would want to hound her out of her job.

I'm an academic. Let me have some freedom.
But that's what happened after her study on the "Varieties of Contemplative Experience" came out and she documented how one out of every ten people who start meditating have a clinically significant negative side effect.

Now she has a folder with 5,000 threats from people all around the world who want to stop her from reporting the truth.
