Fulltext PDFOur spiritual character is assessed with respect to emotional patterns of an archetypal nature associated with our ancient limbic brain. These emotional patterns are reflected in both hemispheres of our neocortex or new brain. Our mute right brain tailors them according to timeless holistic themes that we entertain as frameworks of understanding essential to making sense of our sensory experience, often along religious, ethnic, or cultural lines. Our rational left brain employs language to develop techniques of behavioural response to sensory input accordingly. Our three brains thus have very different functions yet are constrained to live in the same house together, accounting for the schizophrenic streak so evident in our tragic history. The antidote for this is the practice of three distinct but mutually related disciplines, namely a left brain physical discipline, a limbic brain moral discipline, and a timeless right brain spiritual discipline that seeks accord with the cosmic order. Only in this way can we hope to bring our three brains into a sustainable balance with the cosmic order by which we have evolved.
