The numerous approaches to meditation and yoga generally aim at the preparation of the physiology for enlightenment. Kimble's approach involves the interface between Western 21st century science and medical knowledge drawn from the Ayurvedic tradition. His goal is to make abstract concepts and terminology accessible to contemporary audiences by using language and experience familiar to people in the modern world. In the process, Kimble presents us with a map of consciousness which connects the level of immediate experience with the higher states of consciousness embedded in depths of human consciousness.
