Mechanized minds: AI's hidden impact on human thought - Big Think

ABOUT ME

When I turned 26, in 1991, I was careless enough to attract the attention of a Christian sect. As a result, I lost everything. Most worryingly, I was subjected to such sophisticated brainwashing, my unconscious was poisoned to such an extent that if I tried to look inside myself, I fell into hell. I had a severe neurosis and I was afraid it'd go into something worse.

I threw everything I had in Moscow and fled to Bulgaria. There I found Katsuki Sekida's book Zen Training: Methods and Philosophy - it was in 1995 - I started practising to the best of my understanding. But my neurosis was so severe that it was difficult to practise classical sitting zazen, so I invented my own method of walking zazen and found that it works! My nightmares soon began to dissolve, but because they had occupied such a great place in my unconscious - a multitude of associative links - I became a completely different person. The recovery stretched over several years, but now my neurosis is gone.

In a word, this method works, it's very simple, you can practise it by your own, and it's suitable even for those who find it's difficult to concentrate sitting in a static body posture.

The gist of the method described here:
