Default A Stroke of Insight
don't know if somebody's already posted this. i found it somewhat tangentially relevant, but inspiring nonetheless. dear mod: it's a ted talk, so i believe it's non-controversial enough to pass through the link filter.

very touching. also enlightening. as far as i have read the ra material, this goes perfectly along with what is mentioned in the video clip. unity is path to the positive and separation is the path of the negative. this video is probably the best example of how it probably feels. very inspirational.

that is a great video, it seems to me the left hand path and the right hand path could be linked to the hemispheres, think about it. having two parents that have had strokes in the left hemisphere i remember my mother talking about how she felt like she was a part of everything, and i remember her not being very sad afterwords considering what happned.

its interesting how we are all woking so hard to get that right hemisphere experience but people whove had strokes are blessed to get a shortcut to it, at the expense of many other things. her recovery is also amazing

great stuff!

wow, i was amazed at the detail of the experience. i also think it's kind of a shortcut to temporary enlightenment (if you recover). my dad died last year from a stroke in the left hemisphere, now i finally know what exactly happened and what he experienced.

thank you so much for sharing this video.
