The following is from Nate Hagen’s interview with Iain McGilchrist on August 23, 2023.
Nate Hagens:
Iain McGilchrist:
It’s a very difficult thing to say because I just care about the world, really. But I care about it under the aspect of love. I care about real love continuing and prospering and spreading. I can’t say better than that. That’s ultimately what life’s about. You can do anything. You can be anything. But if you don’t experience love and you don’t do in your own way what seems to you to be the loving thing, then I’m not sure what point life has.
Nate Hagens:
Iain McGilchrist:
It’s much bigger than either hemisphere. It comes from somewhere very deep below the hemispheres, I believe. And it takes the whole body. It takes the whole of the embodied being, their heart, their gut, literally. Their brain, their soul, their spirit, their intelligence, their everything.
It is, in other words, not enough to use both hemispheres of the divided brain. We also need to open our heart and involve our whole embodied being. Ultimately, it is a matter of love!
