just a clot of nirvana

I got linked to this from a newsletter I get, and I’m sharing it here because it is a description, by a brain scientist, of the kind of experience she had that others might attribute to sensing “god.”
Still others, back in the days of “dropping acid,” often described something similar.
And others, yet, tried to achieve it through Transcendental Meditation.
It’s not in the mind; it’s in the brain.

She remembers the day clearly, when she eventually curled up into a ball and expected to die. “I was shocked when I awoke later,” said Taylor,… [snip] “I couldn’t talk. I couldn’t understand language. I lost all recollection of my life and lost all perception of my physical presence — I was at one with the universe.
