Summary:
"When we look at how the
brain
works, it looks like the
brain
is able to very easily engage in religious and spiritual practices, ideas, and experiences. All the
brain
scan studies that we've done show that there are multiple parts of the
brain
that seem to get involved. The
brain
is easily capable of having these experiences. Now exactly how that ability got into the
brain
is not only a much more complex question, both a philosophical and scientific
one
as well. Scientists might say it was through millions of years of evolution, and that because being religious or spiritual was an adaptive process, it got incorporated into the biological mechanisms of the
brain
. Religious individuals might say that if there is a
God
, that we would have a
brain
that's capable of communicating to
God
, praying to
God
, doing the things that
God
needs us to do. In this talk, Professor Newberg will discuss how it does look like the
brain
, no matter how it got there, does have this profound ability to engage in religious and spiritual experiences. This is part of why we've seen religion and spirituality be a part of
human
history since the very dawn of civilization."--Container.
