We've talked about this in another thread: "outrageous" claims or not, experiments must take into account every source of interference, including of course that generated by the meditator themselves. Chanting, mantras, coughing, whatever can perturb the sensitivity of the intruments.
Maybe this has been addressed in the experiments but was not clarified in the paper? Unfortunately I did not have the time to go through the details.
But my question is: did the original DS experiment deal with these objections? (ambient sound affecting the measurements)
