Suffering a Stroke, Finding Nirvana

Writing by bwerner on Friday, 30 of May , 2008 at 10:49 am

I got from About.com today an email informing me about a person that suffered a stroke and discovered so “Nirvana” she perceived herself and the rest of creation as “all part of the same magnificent field of shimmering energy.

 I past that to you because it fits right into the themes that we handle here on my Blog and because it demonstrates that I am here not talking about some unreal and esoteric things. There is also a video on YouTube that I place here too where you can listen to that woman.

You can read it here on About.com

 Suffering a Stroke, Finding Nirvana

 In 1996, Dr. Jill Bolte Taylor had a stroke and found Nirvana. Leslie Kaufman writes in the New York Times (”A Superhighway to Bliss“) that as the parts of the neuroscientist’s brain failed, she perceived herself and the rest of creation as “all part of the same magnificent field of shimmering energy.”A burst blood vessel caused Dr. Bolte’s left temporal lob to stop working.

    I loved the beautifully written “My Stroke of Insight - a Brain Scientist’s Personal Journey” by Jill Bolte Taylor and her incredible talk on TED dot com. Dr. Taylor’s unique perspective as a Harvard neuroanatomist having a stroke, combined with her sensitivity and awareness, produced something as powerful as I’ve ever witnessed. I want to share Dr Taylor’s story far and wide because it’s a wonderful story and a great book to read, but more importantly, this is the message we desperately need if we are to survive as a species.
