My Stroke of Insight: A Brain Scientist's Personal Journey
by Jill Bolte Taylor
She had a stroke and lived completely in her right brain. She describes oneness with the universe. Some good insight into the brain and consciousness.

how did she relate the story? did she eventually regain her full use of facutlies to record the journey?
I've heard her speak; she gets a bit too much into her right brain for my tastes, tries to pass her subjective viewpoint of the universe off as "science"...Quote:

However, this is not Zen at all. in fact she is attached to form. Attached to peace, silence, inner......etc.
Thus,
There is no liberation which Zen teaching lead one into. and liberation could be peace, passionate, noisy, or silence.
Thanks for sharing - that was so interesting!Quote:
