You're welcome JD. Don't know the Jon-Kabot Zinn book but it sounds good. The book I always recommend for people at the crawl stage of the journey is The Untethered Soul by Michael A Singer. I feel his approach to Witnessing the monkey mind for what it is and recognising that you are not your thoughts is absolutely genius. The attached video includes the first couple of chapters. I love Richard Feynman a polymath and modern day Renaissance man if ever there was one. The person who did for me what Feynman did for you was Robert Anton Wilson who absolutely destroys the concept of "belief" and belief systems as a way to navigate life. His book Prometheus Rising is a great place to start. I remember reading the Tao of Physics many many years ago when I was fascinated by the Holographic Universe/Brain theories of Karl Pribam and David Bohm's Implicate order. All of that science meets mysticism work served to make me see Scientific Materialism for the ruling elite ideological control tool it is and free me from the dominant cultural myth that anything spiritual or religious or centred on consciousness is just superstitious nonsense. The truth is the idea that ONLY physical matter/energy exists and everything else emerges from it as an epiphenomena is the biggest crock of superstitious nonsense of all time. The flying spaghetti monster is more likely to be true than that absurdity 🤣
