INTERESTING TALK VIDEO

[Annette1]

given by a scientist who studies brain function. Video is about 20 minutes. Summation and link below:

Neuroanatomist Jill Bolte Taylor 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. This is a powerful story about how our brains define us and connect us to the world and to one another.

After watching the video i felt like what your avatar looks like

...then i started thinking of Castaneda's splitting of the mind('head opening' performed on Carlos by don Juan) and that it must be something like this that he described but i didn't understand it then(at all) when i read it some 20 years ago...

It sure makes more sense to me now especially after watching that video, Thanks a lot for finding it!
