A forum between Buddhist leasers and eminent scientists noted the benefits deriving from the skills of Tibetan Buddhist monks who have practiced meditation training. The main point of focus involved perceptual rivalries, such as binocular rivalry and motion induced blindness, and how they can give insight into the neural fluctuations despite unchanging stimuli. Perceptual rivalry occurs when there are conflicting and rivaling sensory inputs. A common form of this is binocular rivalry, which is the phenomenon that occurs when our visual perception alternates between two images present to each eye. Another example of rivalry is motion-induced blindness. This describes the apparent disappearance and illusion created when a stimuli is paired with a moving background. The GIF below exemplifies this (when the observer looks at the blinking green dot in the middle, after 10 seconds the surrounding yellow dots will disappear and reappear again.)
