“This story should completely changed the way we see mentally disabled individuals. Their minds are alert and receptive, their souls are alive, and their hearts are sensitive.” Thank you Johannes for this story and important insight – a great example of how strong the soul and awareness live on inside many people .. even when they have lost the ability to express themselves fully ~

Thank you for sharing this article, Johannes/Sevaji, which is on a topic I have been fascinated by and reading more about in recent years ~ I think the study of the brain is key in understanding the power of meditation and shows how science and spirituality go hand in hand ~ As in the study of the monk’s brain activity – similar studies of the right and left brain show how people can focus on certain parts and functions of the brain … resulting in many of the benefits of deep meditation ~ How great if one can learn to turn off the distractions of a chattering mind, painful past memories and worries of the future – so one can experience the bliss and peace found in the present moment – even if only for a few hours or minutes a day in meditation 🙂

The move of China making its currency – the renminbi available to the world IS very significant – thank you for this article Johannes ~ Some economist say China might surpass America’s GDP in 10 years even though, as the article points out, it has slowed down in the short term ~ So the introduction of China’s currency on the world market competing with the Dollar and Euro could have a HUGE impact on the world wide financial systems and power structure in the years to come ~~~

This is the quintessential video on Buddha that I have seen so far – Thank you Sevaji/Johannes !
