Hi all,

I watched the most amazing video lecture with a women called Dr.Jill Balte Taylor. Jill is a renowned Neuro-anatomist who had a keen interest in mental disorders and the pathology of them, from her studies of the human brain. Jill's brother, whom is a few months older than her, was diagnosed with the brain disorder called schizophrenia. This is primarily what drove Jill into the area of Neuro-anatomy.

But a couple of years later her world was turned upside down when she suffered a brain disorder of her own. Jill suffered a massive stroke in her brain that allowed her (a Brain anatomist of all people) to experience "Nirvana" as she explains it.

I ask you to take the time and listen to what this inspirational individual has to say, it is throughly amazing the way she describes her experience.
