Default Mind isn't in brain, brain just hardware


The Human Brain?what is it? - 01/09/2004 13:04

There still remain numerous qualities of the brain that are yet to
be discovered.

?It is difficult to say which part of the brain is carefully
studied,¦ says academician Natalya Petrovna Bekhtereva. ?The entire
brain has been studied indeed, but not to the fullest extent. There
still remain numerous qualities of the brain that are yet to be
discovered. Researchers do in fact possess a great deal of
information regarding our movements. We also know some general
principles of the entire thinking processes as well as those of
emotions. Also, researchers are well acquainted with such brain
function as control of the internal sphere of one's organism.¦

Brain's numerous capabilities can at times be quite unusual and
unexpected. Scientists continue to be mesmerized by such remarkable
powers of one's brain. It seems like everything in a human body is
controlled by the brain. Is it really so?

In 1336 king Ludwig of Bavaria has sentenced one nobleman Dits von
Shaunburg and four of his supporters to death. The nobleman was
accused of creating rebellious moods in the country. All of the
accused trouble-makers were supposed to be beheaded. Right before
the execution, the king asked the nobleman of his last wish. Dits
pleaded to have his supporters freed in case he manages to run pass
them headless. In addition, the nobleman remarked that each of his
friends has to stand eight feet apart from each other. Only those
men whom the beheaded nobleman manages to pass will be freed.

The monarch simply laughed at such strange plea but agreed to do
everything as the nobleman had asked. Dits placed his people in one
row, while carefully counting distance between each one of them.
Afterwards, he kneeled before the executioner's block. In a blink of
an eye, the nobleman's white-haired head rolled down the stars. His
fully erected body with a fountain of squirting blood quickly ran by
his accused friends. As soon as he passed the last man standing,
after having made more than 32 steps (!), the body stopped and
immediately collapsed to the ground. The king kept his word and
freed all of the accused.

In 1935 a child was born in New York-s hospital of St.Vincent. At
first sight, the child did not differ from any normal newborns. He
ate, drank, cried and went potty just like any other baby his age.
Suddenly, the baby died. The autopsy showed that the baby lacked-..a
brain!

One famous German doctor, professor Hufland was once present
during an autopsy performed on a person who had presumably died as a
result of cerebral hemorrhage. The patient remained conscious until
the end. Doctors however were shocked of the autopsy results.
Instead of his brain, medics discovered nearly 300 milliliters of
water!

Famous bacteriologist Louie Paster suffered from cerebral
hemorrhage at the age of 46. As a result, his right hemisphere of
the brain had stopped functioning. The scientist managed to live
another 27 years and make many revolutionary scientific discoveries.

There are also known cases of people surviving after horrible,
life-threatening brain traumas. One of New York-s medical journals
informed of a case which had taken place in 1858. A man was
discovered in a boat with his head stuck between the upper
construction of the boat and the lower level of a bridge. A sharp
square timber had cut off + of the man's head. Doctors did not
believe that the man would eventually survive. However, the man
recovered in no time and uttered, ?What happened?¦ The doctors did
not even have enough time to place bandages on his head. The patient
was ready to go home!

It turns out that those neurophysiologists were right in claiming
that ?Scientists will continue studying the human brain even after
astrologers put down myriad galaxies on their maps.¦

Read the books of Madam Blavitsky and Aurobindo if you want to know about the research made about where the mind lies else start finding yourself where mind stops within you. Both will lead you to some starkling conclusions. I recommend the second. The best judge is YOU.
