The cyberpunk depictions of jacking your brain into the Matrix/network/whatever may be science fiction, but jacking your brain into a Higher State of Being is science fact. Dr. Michael Persinger of Laurentian University in Canada has done some remarkable work on the neurobiology of religion. He has identified a portion of the brain now popularly called “the God Spot” that can be reproducibly stimulated by electromagnetic fields to produce religious experiences like Mystic Presence of Others as well as Sense of Timeless Tranquility. In fact, Persinger believes that many historical religious and UFO experiences were caused by EM fields produced by earthquake activity – not to mention the spread of 20th Century clock radios on everybody’s nightstand. Now you can see for yourself what truth is out there. One of Persinger’s former students, Todd Murphy, is seeking research volunteers to participate in developing a home-based, PC-peripheral version of Persinger’s EM stimulation gear called Shakti which you can buy for $250 once you wade thru all of the pop-up disclaimers. Over one hundred participants have reported some pretty impressive experiences in Murphy’s program so far. Perhaps the meaning of life is coming your way in a mailbox near you…
