Furthermore, studies done on practitioners of meditation have shown increased activity in the left prefrontal cortex of the brain. This area is associated with positive feelings and as such this area is also one of the places in the brain that shows high levels of decreased activity in depressed people.
Ironically, the right prefrontal cortex of the brain is associated with so called "negative" feelings.

And Jesus went into a boat and Peter pushed it out a little ways from shore; and Jesus standing in the boat spoke to the multitude. He said, 4 Isaiah, prophet of the Lord of hosts, looked forward and he saw this day; he saw the people standing by the sea, and he exclaimed, 5 The land of Zebulon and Napthali, land beyond the Jordan and toward the sea, the Gentile Galilee, 6 The people were in darkness, knowing not the way; but, lo, they saw the Day Star rise; a light streamed forth; they saw the way of life; they walked therein. 7 And you are blest beyond all people of the earth to-day, because you first may see the light, and may become the children of the light. 8 Then Jesus said to Peter, Bring your nets aboard, and put out in the deep. 9 And Peter did as Jesus bade him do; but in a faithless way he said, This is a useless trip; there are no fish upon this shore of Galilee to-day; with Andrew I have toiled all night, and taken naught. 10 But Jesus saw beneath the surface of the sea; he saw a multitude of fish. He said to Peter, 11
Cast out your net upon the right side of the boat. 12 And Peter did as Jesus said, and, lo, the net was filled; it scarce was strong enough to hold the multitude of fish. 13 And Peter called to John and James, who were near by, for help; and when the net was hauled to boat, both boats were well nigh filled with fish.
MATTHEW 24:27 NKJ
27 "For as the lightning comes from the
east and flashes to the west, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be.
The first room, on the
East side (right), was called the
Holy Place; the priests would enter the Sanctuary via the Entrance Door curtain on the East side (far right); the room contained:
the Showbread Table (inside at top), ZODIAC
the Lampstand (inside at bottom) 7 Chakras
the Golden Incense Altar (middle); Pineal Gland
the Veil (middle, left of centre) separated the Holy Place from the inner room
THE HUMAN BRAIN
The Human Brain has an outer covering called Dura Mater (Hard Mother). The inner most sensitive part of the brain is called Pia Mater (Tender Mother). The outer part and the inner part is separated by Arachnoid which is the web or the veil or curtain.
The Biblical Temple has an outer court (The Holy Place). The Inner part (The Holy of Holies). The outer Holy place is separated from the inner Holy of Holies by a veil or curtain.
Exodus 26:33 Hang up the veil and the veil shall divide unto you between the holy place and the most holy.
Between the dura mater and the pia mater. The temple is the human brain.
Religious people fight and kill each other over a building in Jerusalem, the temple. But that is only a picture of the real temple which is inside of the human brain.
The Holy of Holies is the place of Pia Mater which is accessed by entering in at the right side in meditation.
King James Bible
Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after
righteousness: for they shall be filled
Revelation 1:16
In his
right hand he held seven stars, and out of his mouth came a sharp double-edged sword. His face was like the sun shining in all its brilliance.
Revelation 1:17
When I saw him, I fell at his feet as though dead. Then he placed his
right hand on me and said : Do not be afraid. I am the First and the Last.
