The problem of mindfulness – loaded with troubling assumptions of self/cosmos (aeon.co)

problem with mindfulness - like every other western lens on eastern culture, just picking a few pieces of a gigantic puzzle and trying to fit in a western social and economical model. Hindu/dharmic history, philosophy, spirituality, yoga, meditation, ayurveda etc forms a close knit body of knowledge. Without understanding even the basics of this complex ecosystem, picking some random fragments will always end in some inadequacy and confusion.
