Some people think there’s only one way to view the world and those that think differently are just wrong. Many of us can’t seem to grasp the fact that there is another way.

Here is a great clip that I can’t recommend enough (thanks to BL for this). This is a brain researcher by the name of Jill Bolte Taylor who woke up one morning and had a stroke. As a scientist, she was given the great opportunity to view the process of one of her brain hemispheres shutting down and she analyzed it as it happened.

Her insight was that as the left brain shut down, she was able to perceive the world from a right brain perspective. She could feel and see energy, she sensed that we are all part of the universal energy, she experienced nirvana.

Here’s how she described it :

“Our right hemisphere is all about this present moment. It’s all about right here right now. Our right hemisphere, it thinks in pictures and it learns kinesthetically through the movement of our bodies. Information in the form of energy streams in simultaneously through all of our sensory systems. And then it explodes into this enormous
collage of what this present moment looks like. What this present moment smells like and tastes like, what it feels like and what it sounds like. I am an energy being connected to the energy all around me through the consciousness of my right hemisphere. We are energy beings connected to one another through the consciousness of our right
hemispheres as one human family. And right here, right now, all we are brothers and sisters on this planet, here to make the world a better place. And in this moment we are perfect. We are whole. And we are beautiful.”
” So who are we? We are the life force power of the universe, with manual dexterity and two cognitive minds. And we have the power to choose, moment by moment, who and how we want to be in the world. Right here right now, I can step into the consciousness of my right hemisphere where we are — I am — the life force power of the universe, and the life force power of the 50 trillion beautiful molecular geniuses that make up my form. At one with all that is.”

(Thanks to “neijia” for typing that in.)

The implications of this are enormous. I’ll talk about that tomorrow.

I’m not allowing comments here because we already have a good discussion of this going in the Formosa Neijia discussion group. Please join us there!
