一个“框架”是为了理解经验证实和未经证实的现象，在印度-西藏的冥想系统，从综合的角度来看，并提供证据表明，某些冥想的做法，使冥想者实现人类固有的潜力，感知光“在量子力学的限制”，在个人光子的水平。这是一个更大的佛教议程的一部分，以冥想方式发展感知/注意力能力，以实现对现象本质的深刻洞察。根据对“变化盲视”的研究，这种能力还可以让高级冥想者感知自然场景中的变化，这些变化对具有“正常”注意力的人来说是“隐藏的”，并增强他们的视觉系统功能，类似于高速和延时摄影，完全允许感知，以及复杂的理解，根据佛教教义，“瞬间到瞬间的变化或无常”是现象世界的普遍特征，但通常在未经训练的注意力和感知之外。
A "framework" is presented for understanding empirically confirmed and unconfirmed phenomena in the Indo-Tibetan meditation system, from an integrative perspective, and providing evidence that certain meditative practices enable meditators to realize the innate human potential to perceive light "at the limits imposed by quantum mechanics," on the level of individual photons. This is part of a larger Buddhist agenda to meditatitively develop perceptual/attentional capacities to achieve penetrating insight into the nature of phenomena. Such capacities may also allow advanced meditators to perceive changes in natural scenes that are "hidden" from persons with "normal" attentional capacities, according to research on "change blindness," and to enhance their visual system functioning akin to high-speed and time-lapse photography, in toto allowing for the perception, as well as sophisticated understanding, of the "moment to moment change or impermanence" universally characteristic of the phenomenal world but normally outside untrained attention and perception according to Buddhist doctrine.
