  • 0:00 - 0:07
    While the left brain focuses on details
    and discrimination and preferences,
  • 0:07 - 0:11
    the right brain actually...
  • 0:12 - 0:15
    experiences this quietness.
  • 0:15 - 0:16
    It doesn't...
  • 0:16 - 0:17
    It doesn't...
  • 0:18 - 0:20
    use language.
  • 0:20 - 0:22
    So when this neuroanatomist...
  • 0:22 - 0:29
    When she had a stroke, she said she experienced
    this complete quietude, tranquility.
  • 0:29 - 0:31
    She said, "That's nirvana."
  • 0:31 - 0:34
    Because there was no voice.
  • 0:34 - 0:38
    There was no angst, no sadness, no anger,
  • 0:38 - 0:43
    no dramas for the last 37 years of her life.
  • 0:43 - 0:45
    It just became quiet.
  • 0:46 - 0:48
    Nirvana is in us.
  • 0:49 - 0:52
    If we seek the Buddha,
  • 0:53 - 0:57
    it's right in us, in our body, in our capacity.
  • 0:57 - 0:59
    We have it.
