A fascinating article following the Dalai Lama on his speach at the Society for Neuroscience's annual conference at the Washington Convention Center. The line dividing conventional positivist science and spiritual quests are thining, increasing the risk, on both sides, of crossing it. A must read.

In 1986 a collection of Hebrew manuscripts, roughly 200 years old, written by Rabbi Schneur Zalman of Liadi (the first Lubavitcher Rebbe) was published.
