Tokyo Meditation
Challenge

1 & 2 Oct 2025

World Premiere of the QM3 Format

The Tokyo Meditation Challenge will host the first-ever public rollout of the QM1™ and QM3™ Formats.

Introducing QM1 and QM3 – New Standards for Quantified Meditation

QM1 and QM3 stand for Quantified Meditation 1 and Quantified Meditation 3 – two innovative formats developed to bring objective precision to the assessment of meditation. Especially designed for the Meditation Challenge, QM1 and QM3 focus on identifying the peak meditative moments within a session, providing measurable insights into inner silence and self clarity.

What are QM1 and QM3?

  • QM1 captures the 1-minute window in which a participant reaches their deepest meditative state – the moment of highest state of practice, deep awareness, or profound inner silence.

  • QM3 extends this concept to a 3-minute period to assess sustained meditation depth and stability of the silent mind.

Both formats are based on the analysis of neurophysiological markers such as EEG patterns (e.g., alpha suppression, infraslow waves, reduced mind-wandering, increased attention and self-awareness) and are supported by subjective and second-person observations when applicable.

What are QM1 and QM3?

In many meditation traditions, a moment of genuine silence can be transformative. The Buddha himself attained enlightenment during a profound state of deep meditative absorption under the Bodhi tree reaching the peak state of his long practice. Practitioners often spend their entire lives searching for such fleeting yet powerful and transformative moments, where the mind becomes silent, clear, and deeply aware.

QM1 and QM3 aim to highlight and reward these moments, by capturing key moments within longer or varied sessions. By focusing on quality over quantity, we offer a fair, accessible, and scientifically grounded way to recognize peak meditative states excellence across different styles and levels of experience.

This new standard is part of our ongoing mission to bridge ancient wisdom and modern science, empowering practitioners to understand, track, and deepen their inner journey towards attaining profound states in a meaningful and quantifiable way.
