In this 2017 video, he maintains that meditation is the single best practice from which any person can derive benefit. He notes that there are now over a thousand scientific papers describing both the mental and biological benefits of meditation. He claims that, while almost all religious cultures offer some sort of meditative practice, it is possible to understand meditation entirely apart from a religious context. He provides specific instructions for meditation based on his own experience of over fifty years. He concludes with a discussion of the sociological benefits of meditation.
Edited subtitles for this video are available in Russian, Portuguese, Italian, German, French, and Spanish.
