'People' say all kinds of things. 'They' say this and that about this, that and them and often what 'they say' isn't based on reality, but rather, on what 'other people', other 'theys' say.
The practice of meditation is about not listening to what 'people say', or even what 'we' say, as we gossip to ourselves about ourselves and others. It is about finding out for ourselves. Not through comparison of brain size, or performance of certain tasks, but through becoming intimate, with ourselves and the world around us.
