” My mind suspended between two sets of chaotic stimuli…”.Surrender…still alive…

The President of Immortality takes care of everything (Tess of Thomas Hardy is not meant here) if only the surrender is conscious and total.

Thanks to M for referring to this lesson at that context of my post.

I read “My Stroke of Insight” in one sitting – I couldn’t put it down. I laughed. I cried. It was a fantastic book (I heard it’s a NYTimes Bestseller and I can see why!), but I also think it will be the start of a new, transformative Movement! No one wants to have a stroke as Jill Bolte Taylor did, but her experience can teach us all how to live better lives. Her TED.com speech was one of the most incredibly moving, stimulating, wonderful videos I’ve ever seen. Her Oprah Soul Series interviews were fascinating. They should make a movie of her life so everyone sees it. This is the Real Deal and gives me hope for humanity.
