El universo es un organismo vivo. No tiene leyes, sino hábitos. Esa es la gran intuición de la cosmología budista. A ella se añade otra, que proviene del pensamiento védico y que hereda el sāṃkhya: la mente no es la conciencia. La naturaleza está hecha de la materia sutil de la mente, una mente extendida, que dialoga constantemente con una conciencia que lo permea todo, que no puede entenderse según las directrices del espacio y el tiempo. El cosmos experimenta procesos cíclicos de creación y disolución que se desarrollan en función de la evolución espiritual de los seres que lo habitan.

Resultado de años de estudio sobre la conciencia, el chamanismo y antiguas filosofías orientales, Jacobo Grinberg desarrolló la innovadora meditación autoalusiva, que tiene como base la observación y la técnica budista Vipassana. Esta práctica busca desbloquear las capacidades mentales que permanecen latentes en cada individuo, llevándolo hacia un estado de autoco nocimiento trascendental y a una experiencia transformadora de expansión de la conciencia.
