When I was in high school we got taught to draw from Betty Edwards book ‘Drawing on the Right Side of The Brain’. We had to draw photos of famous people upside down. We had to draw the negative space between objects. Carlos Castaneda called it The Second Attention. Relaxing the need to label and just see what is actually there. The left brain is like the deckhand on a ship that is expected to be captain.
A great book. Doing the exercises in enabled me to do realistic drawing from observation and was a major step to pursuing a career of art. An aid was the practice of TMeditation.
@@soulrongang I did a great photographic portrait of Michelle Pfeiffer as Cat Woman off the front of a computer magazine. It’s a great book for observational work.
I watched this interview back in April, and have just finished watching it for the second time today. I am so impressed by Ms Whitney's interviewing skills. The topic is close to my heart because, as a visual artist, I spend much of my time sitting in my right brain. In fact, the whole time I was listening to the discussion, I was engaged in experimental drawing and to allow things to just 'happen' and the drawing to 'flow', I need to park my rational, critical, left brain (that can be called upon later to check if my work looks balanced or to adjust colours, etc.). Thank you both so much.
Most of my life I defined myself by thinking. I had a breakthrough a couple years ago when I realized I am consciousness. Since then I am learning to let go of thinking and just be the awareness that I am.
so so good Leanne! reminds me of some of our conversations over at Whole Foods. You are a great interviewer and the guest is fantastic and the topic is the only one really worth 😊 talking or "un talking" about ❤😊❤
Your book is brilliant I wish you’d republish it with a new name that empathizes the left/right brain perceptual views rather than no self because people are intimidated by no self but you do the best job ever of revealing that we can toggle to the right brain perspective
The perspective that~"that individualism isn't even there", to me falls into either/or thinking. It is there in some ways and in some ways it is not, seems more accurate.That every creature even the most humble has a unique experience seems to be basic of life. Noticing that it may be primarily an emergent experience dependent on a huge number of factors, does not dismiss its importance. Ian Lungold makes the point in his fascinating talk called The Mayan Calendar comes North, that 'nature has struggled for millions of years to give us an individual experience'. If so to downplay that is probably a mistake.
Literally in the word root it’s always been defined as conditions. Un, sub, Supra… that’s early Sanskrit etc. awareness is non local as with indivisible. As with essential nature of the sky.
TFS Feeling = 96-98% of all my results & Thinking 2-4% of my results So if I want better Results I need to THINK MY WAY TO THOSE HIGHER DESIRES GOSLS VISION, etc.!??? Riiiiiiiiihht!!!
That's a gross misreading of Descarte's "I think therefore I am." Descartes wasn't saying, "I'm being intellectual therefore I am." He was saying, "I am aware, therefore I am."

An excellent presentation! Thank you to both of you.
A wonderful interview. Very compelling. Thanks to both of you.

Excellent. Wonder how to explain NDEs
His voice reminds me of Dennis McKenna.

There's something about the word 'collective' that is very ineffective at relaying what people may be attempting to convey?
Literally in the word root it’s always been defined as conditions. Un, sub, Supra… that’s early Sanskrit etc.
