Hmm do you think that genetics can influence our aptitude toward
meditations and other contemplative activities? For example, some
studies have shown that genetics (Martha's syndrome) can have a
significant influence athletes' performances. It seems that meditative
ability also runs deep in certain families that have produced masters
over many generations. It will be interesting to investigate these
meditation "genes" :)

Hmm do you think that people with attention deficit hyperactivity
disorder can meditate successfully? Is there any study regarding this?
If this is a genetic problem, then how might meditation solve it?
