A stroke-induced mystical experience?

Can't brain. Has dumb.
Or something. Anyhow, I wanted to share this video. It's a fantastic video - this woman, Jill Bolte Taylor, is a scientist. A neurologist. One morning, she had a stroke, and had quite an experience. It is this experience that she focuses on mostly, describing what happens when the left side of the brain shuts down, and how she was affected. I'm keen to read what your thoughts are after watching the video. It's just short of 20mins long, so grab a cuppa before you watch it :D

I've seen this before, but I cannot come to any conclusions. What do you think?
