/sci/ - Science & Math

What is the psychology/scientific detail behind ego loss and nirvana? What is it, how does it happen, why does it happen, I wanna know everything.

Also, what have people experienced through the use of mindfulness/meditation? As detailed as possible preferably, like how long were you practicing before you got each experience, what was it, what did it feel like, was it a gradual realization, anything else...

>Refrain from giving a spiritual answer unless it can make some sense to non-spiritually inclined people. (Or if possible, give a non-spiritual equivalent understanding of whatever spiritual thing you're trying to put forward)
