I don't know enough about this to say he's right, but suspect he is. As much as I appreciate the value of Yoga and meditation, I've run into people who imitate it in an expensive and non-useful way.

Thank you Paqart for your response, unfortunately PZ Meyers is a dogmatic humanist, we have to be careful when ever reading his blog because he has a tendency of misleading people, the only good thing about PZ is his powerful ability to debunk creationists and their silly ideas. If he talks about anything else we have to be careful because he tends to be very dogmatic in his Atheism.
Steve Novella is different he does not mix his Atheism with Science.
For an honest, careful and good analysis about the powerful effects of meditation read Steve Volk's book Fringe.ology chapter 7: The Open Mind: How New Science is Revealing the Power of Meditation and Prayer.
I sincerely hope Death is not the end.
