Buddha's Brain

"Looking at the larger picture: there are six billion caveman/cavewoman brains on this planet. Those brains are naturally inclined toward calm, contentment, and caring. But evolution has also given them a hair trigger for fear and anger at the least whiff of threat. You see the results on small scales, across dinner tables and office cubicles, and large ones, from shouting matches on cable TV to international conflicts. Our world is poised on the edge of a sword, and the way it tips will depend greatly on whether more people get more skillful with the brain." ~ Rick Hanson, Ph.D., Neuropsychologist, Author of Buddha's Brain

"Jesus, Moses, the Buddha, and other great teachers were all born with a brain built essentially like anyone else’s. Then they used their minds to change their brains in ways that changed history." ~ Regina Meredith, Conscious Media Network
