New rich neurophenomenology dataset from my recent #firekasina retreat, this time with the Emotibit timesync'd with the EEG through Lab Streaming Layer, all open science CC-BY-NC-SA-4.0. Enjoy! See description in the Wiki for new file folder name. https://osf.io/srfnz/overview

@danielmingram I've been wondering if it is at all possible to develop the same "inner" object of concentration one develops with fire kasina just by looking at the dark noise one sees behind closed eyes, without any retinal after image created in the eyes.

Also, is it useful to use vision for daily practice, not a fire kasina retreat, or would something like the breath at the tip of the nose be better? I have only once reached the first jhana (I think) and only for a short while, so I'm really straggling on my way.
