Reviewing The Six Sense Doors and the Fetters

During this talk, Peter reviews a section of the Fourth Foundation of Mindfulness, focusing on how the brain takes in sensory stimulation and integrates the various areas where senses are processed with areas of the brain that formulate self identity and and behavior, transforming the initial stimuli into the experience of “selfing”. The fetters are what binds these processes, which is described during the talk. How this works is presented from both a classical Theravada Buddhist perspective and contemporary neuroscientific research that demonstrates how the brain “binds” the various neural processes in different areas into a coherent self-experience multiple times per second. Here are the notes prepared for this talk: Understanding the Sense Doors and the Fetters
