Scientist talks about her Near Death-like Experience and brain function.
#10
It suits materialists' ends to posit no identity or consciousness outside a rigid biochemical state.


And surely no spirit in dust, and no meaning to life save that awarded by the state.


Soviets consigned dissidents to asylums. Orwell's Inner Party O'Brien explained the limits of linguistics.


Zen may lay traps for the egoI can only infer from a series of koans.


The query "who observes, who experiences" devolves into Bud Abbott in the left brain, Lou Costello in the right.


Heroin will say hahaha, what is the existential angst.


LSD, peyote, mushrooms and the kindred chemicals will offer the same dissolution of the boundary between man and his environment.


Dr. Taylor, that part of the shower not-tile, posits a more peaceful world to be had by more and better choosing of the blending of the parallel and serial processors.


Kierkegaard was on a card I found in the drawer of a dusty drawing table in an unused room in the back of a family pump factory:


Life must be lived forwards but can only be seen in reverse.


So, the right brain lives and the left brain reflects?


Dr. Taylor suggests the hemispheres are totally separate, only connected by 300 million Velcro fibers.


If science suggests only ten per cent of the universe is detectable, the rest dark matter, and ten per cent of the brain's function utilized, the answer to Who Goes There or rather, Who Am I may be as esoteric or familiar as one may decide.


Life is opportunity costwe are fortunate for every revelation from travelers returning from terra exotica.


Present company included.
