Objectless awareness practices from Buddhist (zazen, shikantaza, objectless shamatha), Christian apophatic (Centering Prayer, hesychasm), Kabbalist (hitbodedut, devekut, ayin meditation), Hindu (nirvikalpa samādhi), entheogenic (shamanic psilocybin, ayahuasca, and related dissociative traditions), and Sufi (muraqaba) traditions act as reconfigurations of attractor landscapes as dynamical systems within the Default Mode Network; resonating quasi-stable intrinsic 'harmonic' modes.

Concretely, in #anthropology we are way beyond “giving voice” to our interlocutors and no one would dare to “speak for them” any more. But what is the kind of collaboration we should strive for? How does it manifest in the way we listen? Does the often demanded “allyship” really mean being mute?
I am not even beginning to bridge from listening to understanding. This is precisely the operation that I find undertheorized in qualitative empirical research such as #anthropology & #sociology. In conversation analysis it is often intentionally bracketed out. You either have meaning or structure.
