My next question was, “So what entrains or motivates the heart?” Aboriginal Peoples believe that it is the Spirit. In Spiritual Intelligence, The Ultimate Intelligence, Danah Zohar and Ian Marshall postulate SQ, asserting that it has a neurological basis, and that it integrates all our intelligences. That is, science is just now discovering what Aboriginal Peoples have said all along about the holistic approach, or the teachings of the Medicine Wheel. Further, if Spiritual Intelligence integrates all of our intelligences, then, if we’re concentrating on cognitive outcomes only, it’s like we’re building the third floor of a house when the foundation has not even been solidified yet. Further, Melvin Morse, M.D., was delighted when: In 1997, neuroscientists from the University of California at San Diego bravely proclaimed that they had found an area of the human brain that “may be hard-wired to hear the voice of heaven … the right temporal lobe … [is] attuned to ideas about the supreme being and mystical experiences.” They called this area, “the God Module” He goes on to say, In three other books, I had already identified the right temporal lobe as the place where man interfaces with God. It is this area, an area I call “the God Spot” … where God lives in each of us. Melvin Morse, M.D., is a practicing paediatrician in Seattle, and has conducted near-death studies in children for fifteen years. Morse found that, after their NDE, these children are not only better balanced in their physical and mental lives, but they are better balanced spiritually. They eat better food, do better in school, and are more mature than most of their peers. They are aware of a connection with the universe that most other kids don’t even know exists. They feel a purpose in living, and they don’t fear that death is “the end of it all.” They trust their intuitions and feel they can connect again with the divine presence they saw when they nearly died, without having nearly to die again. |
