Using electronic monitoring, scientists have made exciting new discoveries about the Vagus Nerve's role when a person exhibits compassion and empathy toward another. The Vagus Nerve seems to have an 'intelligence'of its own and serves the brain as well as critical organs such as the heart, lungs, kidneys, bowells and essentially all the organs of the abdomen. Having a 'gut feeling' about something is often reported, even though by conventional thinking, it just doesn't seem logical. Parallel to modern Vagus Nerve discoveries, the book explores an ancient Proverb: "The spirit of man is the candle of the LORD, searching all the inward parts of the belly." The question is asked if the Vagus Nerve is the vehicle by which the human spirit expresses itself? And might the human spirit be the portal through which the Holy Spirit interacts with us? As the scriptures state: "He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water. (But this spake he of the Spirit, which they that believe on him should receive: for the Holy Spirit was not yet given; because that Jesus was not yet glorified.)" Scientists say the Vagus Nerve is where compassion activates and the scriptures say "But whoso hath this world's good, and seeth his brother have need, and shutteth up his bowels of compassion from him, how dwelleth the love of God in him?" If you've had that deep down, intuitive feeling of a still, small voice saying you are much more than just a clump of physical molecules, then this is a must read for you.
