This Was Your Brain..

This Swedish study seems to suggest that Michael Persinger (and thus Susan Blackmoore) may actually be wrong about the seat of mystical experience in the brain. Although the report is inconclusive so far, I admit to hoping that perhaps Persinger was wrong, and mystical experiences could not be so easily explained away. But the Swedish experiment could just be proof that the locale is incorrect. Hum-I’m obviously on an off-day today. Wishing for a little unexplained spirituality is a sure sign that I’m off to join the Hare Krishnas.
