Description

A New Perspective on Nirvana

Science, Stillness, and the Disappearance of Self
by Eliyah Oren

What if consciousness wasn't something to chase—but something to quiet into?

In A New Perspective on Nirvana, Eliyah Oren offers a contemplative integration of Eastern meditative insight and modern neuroscience—two languages, often spoken apart, but pointing to the same unspoken truth: that freedom begins not in escape, but in observation.

At the Crossroads of Brain and Being

Drawing from Buddhist philosophy, brain imaging studies, fascia theory, and quantum cognition, this work invites readers to explore:

– How the brain's default mode network gives rise to the narrative self—and how silence disrupts it
– The parallels between neuroplasticity and inner transformation
– The subtle relationship between physical structure (fascia) and meditative experience
– How interdependence, as taught in Buddhism, mirrors quantum entanglement
– Practical clinical approaches that blend mindfulness, embodiment, and emerging technologies

This is not a metaphysical treatise. Nor is it a technical manual.
It is a bridge—offered gently—between the way we think and the space beyond thought.

"Oren doesn't collapse science into spirit or spirit into science—he lets them sit side by side, in respectful dialogue."
— Review, Contemplative Neuroscience Journal

Who This Book Is For

Meditators curious about the neurobiological dimension of stillness Scientists open to wisdom traditions as valid systems of inquiry Clinicians exploring embodied cognition and consciousness-based therapy Seekers drawn to frameworks that do not divide inner and outer worlds

Whether you come from physics or philosophy, healing or technology, this book speaks in a shared language: silence that sees.

Not a Path Forward—A Turning Inward

Nirvana, in this context, is not an escape from reality—it is a return to its bare, luminous essence.
And perhaps what dissolves in that return isn't the self—but the illusion that it was ever separate.

This book doesn't push. It unknots.
It doesn't preach. It pauses.
And in that pause, something begins to see.
