&lt;p&gt;Vincent Horn of Buddhist Geeks: We&amp;rsquo;re joined by Harvard trained social scientist Dr. Jeffery Martin to discuss some of the incredible research that he&amp;rsquo;s doing into the further reaches of human potential. He speaks about his initial research, done during his first PhD program, wherein he extensively studied the self-help and positive psychology literature. He explains how this research led him to see that where the further reaches of that literature&amp;ndash;and the practices therein&amp;ndash;left off was where non-symbolic consciousness begins. Jeffery then goes on to describe the extensive research that he&amp;rsquo;s done, while completing his PhD at Harvard, on the nature of awakened, or non-dual consciousness.&lt;/p&gt;

Please come take a look around. This is our presence on the web. But our greater presence as a practicing Zen group is in face-to-face meetings. Our Zen Center is dedicated to meditation, wisdom-inquiry, and living compassion in relationships. Very little of that can take place through the electronically mediated communication. We prefer the ancient way of meeting face-to-face. So please come and sit with us!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description><pubDate>Wed, 20 Jul 2011 16:07:43 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.zencenteroflascruces.org:80/center-news/welcome-to-our-new-website</guid></item><item><title>Zen Services</title><link>http://www.zencenteroflascruces.org:80/center-news/test</link><description>&lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"&gt;&lt;span face="Calibri" size="3" style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;"&gt;Twice-weekly Zen services, Wednesday evening at 7pm and Sunday morning at 10am, are great opportunities for you to come and learn this practice and do it in a supportive group environment.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description><pubDate>Wed, 20 Jul 2011 15:57:55 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.zencenteroflascruces.org:80/center-news/test</guid></item></channel></rss>
