In the searching of blending the inner and outer worlds in new ways, I come across many links (not just urls) but spiritual links that I want to share. One is the pleasure of Ode magazine.
Ode magazine in paper and cyber form are always filled with good news, life-building stories that are inspirational and seem like such a great fit for this community. Today’s link has this video story of Jill Taylor documenting her journey through a stroke to experience how both sides of the brain work. I found this woman’s story and discoveries fascinating and helped me get another piece of why the Oneness Blessing feels so strong. Enjoy. For those of you who have read Eckart Tolle’s A New Earth, another connect-the-dots read and experience is Arjuna Ardagh’s Awakening Into Oneness.

This is a presentation by neuroanatomist Jill Bolte Taylor, who had an opportunity few brain scientists would wish for: One morning, she realized she was having a massive stroke. As it happened — as she felt her brain functions slip away one by one, speech, movement, understanding — she studied and remembered every moment. Most importantly, this is a powerful story about how our brains define us and connect us to the world and to one another.
