About Me
David B. Jacobs is a scientist, meditation teacher, and lifelong student of consciousness whose work bridges yoga philosophy and modern biomedical science. His journey began in early adulthood through formal training at the Human Dimensions Institute, where he studied consciousness expansion, holistic philosophy, and spiritual experience under respected teachers. This foundation later deepened through initiation into the Himalayan tradition by Sri Swami Rama, shaping a daily meditation practice that has continued for decades and informs both his personal life and professional work.
Alongside his spiritual training, Dr. Jacobs pursued an extensive academic career in biomedical sciences. He earned both a Master’s degree in Natural Science and a Ph.D. in Experimental Pathology, following guidance to unite inner practice with rigorous scientific inquiry. He has held teaching and research positions at several medical institutions, including the University of Rochester, Wayne State University, The Chicago Medical School, and SUNY Downstate, where he taught medical pharmacology and biochemistry while mentoring graduate and doctoral students.

Meditation:
DIAMOND BRIDGE
CONNECTING WAKING, DREAMING, DEEP SLEEP and BEYOND
Meditation: Diamond Bridge Connecting Waking, Dreaming, Deep Sleep, and Beyond explores consciousness through lived experience rather than belief. Blending yoga and science, the book shows how attention reshapes perception across daily life, dreams, and rest. It offers a practical, grounded meditation path that emphasizes consistency, clarity, and inner stability over technique, abstraction.
