Скачать или смотреть Parietal Lobe

The parietal lobe is one of the four lobes of the cerebral cortex. It helps establish our understanding of self with space, time, and objects. It is also associated with awareness and attention. Its circuitry with other parts of the brain plays a very significant role in our feeling of union with God. The parietal-frontal circuit, in particular, helps establish a relationship between our conceptions of “self” and “God”. It helps establish the feeling of God’s presence in time and space as well as our connection to this reality. The more we pray and meditate on God’s presence, the more it becomes real. What is tremendously interesting is that intense prayer on the oneness of God and our connection to all things, will help decrease activity in the parietal lobe and lead to an increased sense of selflessness. Through prayer and meditation, there is more of an awareness of “we” rather than simply just “I”.
