Paperback. Where does spirituality live inside the human brain?Drawing on twenty-five years as a neurologist, Dr. Tae Ho Guak takes the reader through what twenty-first-century neuroscience has actually measured: the praying brain on SPECT, the meditator's thickened cortex, the quieted intention circuit of those who speak in tongues, the telomeres of those who serve, the descending pain pathway that softens when meaning returns, the four extra years of life inside a faith community, the spiritual recovery from trauma and addiction.Then, with equal honesty, he turns to what neuroscience has not solved: the hard problem of consciousness, the fine-tuned universe, the depth of love that no evolutionary model can explain. From Galileo's misunderstanding to the Penrose-Hameroff hypothesis, from William James's radio analogy to Karl Rahner's openness to transcendence, this book traces the long conversation between brain and Being.And it arrives at one quiet conclusion: the human brain is shaped toward God, and we are, even now, being held from behind.Written for readers curious about the neuroscience of meditation, prayer, and mystical experience; believers wondering how faith and modern brain science fit together; atheists and the spiritually curious who want an honest, data-grounded conversation; clinicians and caregivers working with chronic pain, trauma, addiction, or end-of-life; and anyone who has ever stood under a starry sky and felt something larger than themselves."Even at the moment you are reading this page, someone is, behind your back, with two arms quietly holding you." - from the ConclusionPraise for The God Neuroscience Found"Dr. Tae Ho Guak writes beautifully. He distills into a single chapter what could easily fill an entire book, and his way of explaining theology through jazz is outstanding, as is his account of where neuroscience and spirituality meet." - Rev. Fr.

Where does spirituality live inside the human brain?
Drawing on twenty-five years as a neurologist, Dr. Tae Ho Guak takes the reader through what twenty-first-century neuroscience has actually measured: the praying brain on SPECT, the meditator's thickened cortex, the quieted intention circuit of those who speak in tongues, the telomeres of those who serve, the descending pain pathway that softens when meaning returns, the four extra years of life inside a faith community, the spiritual recovery from trauma and addiction.
Then, with equal honesty, he turns to what neuroscience has not solved: the hard problem of consciousness, the fine-tuned universe, the depth of love that no evolutionary model can explain. From Galileo's misunderstanding to the Penrose-Hameroff hypothesis, from William James's radio analogy to Karl Rahner's openness to transcendence, this book traces the long conversation between brain and Being.
And it arrives at one quiet conclusion: the human brain is shaped toward God, and we are, even now, being held from behind.
Written for readers curious about the neuroscience of meditation, prayer, and mystical experience; believers wondering how faith and modern brain science fit together; atheists and the spiritually curious who want an honest, data-grounded conversation; clinicians and caregivers working with chronic pain, trauma, addiction, or end-of-life; and anyone who has ever stood under a starry sky and felt something larger than themselves.
"Even at the moment you are reading this page, someone is, behind your back, with two arms quietly holding you." - from the Conclusion
