“The Art of Speaking in Tongues”
By Jeremy | March 22, 2007
"When they are actually engaged in this whole very intense spiritual practice … their frontal lobes tend to go down in activity. … It is very consistent with the kind of experience they have, because they say that they're not in charge. [They say] it's the voice of God, it's the spirit of God that is moving through them," said Newberg. "Whatever is coming out of their mouth is not what they are purposefully or willfully trying to do. And that's in fairly stark contrast to the people who are  like the Buddhist and Franciscan nuns  in prayer, because they are very intensely focused and in those individuals the frontal lobes actually increase activity."
