Such reflexive meditation is not objective behavior and is inhibited by people who are compulsively and exclusively dedicated to being objective at all times. Compulsively objective behavior is inherently unwise because it inhibits reflexive considerations which are essential to learning from mistakes. Young people need to be educated to recognize the signs of the disease of compulsively objective behavior, so that they can avoid catching the disease from those who are most effective in spreading the disease; i.e., non-reflective respected scientists. It is dangerous to grant respect, honor and support to non-reflective successful scientists; for they are the most effective transmitters of the addictive disease of compulsive objectivity. They are particularly effective transmitters of their addiction when they are encouraged to play the role of educator where the reward system instructs them to spend all discretionary time engaged in pure research which is not easily related to their students' welfare. People who are addicted to pure research encourage their students to become addicted to pure research. They should not be rewarded for encouraging their students to become addicted to pure research in universities! (c) 2005 by Paul A. Smith in (On Being Yourself, Whole and Healthy) ==========================================================
