Religious attitudes and the autopsy.

Religious dictates are generally not valid reasons for refusal of permission for autopsy, since most religions do not prohibit autopsy per se. Permission can be obtained from most members of religious groups, even from Orthodox Jews and Muslims , although it is sometimes not possible to perform an autopsy except where civil law prevails. Resistance on the part of the bereaved may be based on a lack of knowledge or on misinformation. The public needs to be better educated about the many advantages of autopsy, for both society and for family members.

Transformations of consciousness. A cartography, II. The perception-meditation continuum.

The Japanese Zen and Indian Yoga meditation techniques of zazen, dhārnā, dhyān, savichār- and nirvichār-samādhi are cartographed on a perception-meditation continuum of increasing trophotropic arousal. Certain psychophysiological characteristics and experiential dimensions of these hypometabolic states are discussed and it is proposed that observer-observed interactions or trans-substantiation (commonly termed 'reality') may not be subject to Goedelian restrictions if they proceed in hyper- and hypoaroused states. The meaning of aroused, non-verbal and logically non-Aristotelean states cannot be conveyed to individuals in a non-aroused state. The converse is also true when the relationship of arousal levels is reversed.
