there are much to learn still and the waiting unknowns about life

There is a saying.
That goes like this,

The human brain, governs the body.


Even when we think it as a superlative statement, in truth, it really does.

Our motoric system, limbic system(emotion, memories and stimulations), our thinking process, the tiny and minuscule movements of cells, they all controlled by our brain, our body is sustained from their temporal animation we called as life, is because our brain does all the works to the tiniest detail.

So, it isn't wrong that there are much to be said about our brain and how they work.

There are much to be discovered about the process of our brain stream of thought that dictate how a human behaved different one from another unique to their individual aspects.

And there are much work need to be done to unveil the mystery how come a blob of goopy tissues can dictate the whole life of a person.

We even heard from medical perspective, that even if a person is dead(flat lining pulse), there might still a tiny window for a little miracle for them to be revived, inexplicable as it is heard, there is those chances occuring on daily life.
But when their brain is dead, that's simply a different case.

It is a mystery, how tiny synaptic wiring in a blob of fatty tissues and water, protein, carbohydrate and salts, can store memories bigger than any manmade super electronic data storing device, how they capable of producing a lucid reality, a somekind of vivid simulation we called as dreams, how can they make optical illusion and sometimes even auditory halucination in other instances.

How a brain capable of performing a big calculation and stuffs unimaginable, how they capable of planting a will and driving force, envision a better future and deducing possibilities outcomes for a situation, and doing some hard thinking process and even problem solving.

A brain, is there, and we all born the same with each and every one of us, with brain, we are a thinking creature, that's the only differing elements that separates us from all living creatures beside us in this planet, what separate us from animals.

But not all, used their thinking juice for the better good, and not all human in this current crowded 7 billions population, utilized their brain the same way.

Some even capable of producing theories, doing complicated alogarithm, while some only capable of thinking that the earth is flat.

Some can dream and dream, while some capable of creating beautiful arts and even masterpieces.

And yet not much is known about a human brain.

We can mapped the brain today, saying this lobe is responsible for this and that, that cortex is the one deciding your one and only unique trait, that node is for producting of expressions, that part is for mimicry, and stuffs.

But in reality, the gist of it, we still doesn't really understand them quite well, we still unable to revive a dead brain.

You can try putting a dying person on a life support machine, substituting the task for pumping the heart, and bellowing the lungs for breathing, you can hook a person with tons of wiring and plenty of liquid sustenance to barely keep their animation we call alive, but when their brain decide to finally shut down, you can't do anything about it to return them to the realm of the living.

We know nothing about it, we never quite understand about it's essential knowledge, we only theoretize through science and psychology, we can only done simulations, and sequences, but we can never recreate a brain from scratch, and moreover, making it work and capable of producing life out of a blob.

Hence, what we used to call as para-psychology came to fill the gap, the study that try to explain the mental phenomenons which excluded from orthodox psychology,

And out from the long-winded clueless and sometimes blunders done by the para-psychologist, another herald come and settled the transpersonal psychology we called today.

Well, many quotes and footnotes can be made to differentiate them from one another, but the very root of the problems is the same.

We human, try to understand the unknown, and how the dive towards the realm of uncertainties and great unknown, can bring the betterment of understanding on human life.


It was the ancient Greeks, that coined the term psyche, in mythology, a goddess that govern a soul.
In latin, anima, that much known today that we all humans, because we had anima, so we are animated, we move, breathing, and grow, in our impermanent dtate of living we called life.

Plato try to dissect the concept of psyche, and many other long gone big head thinker did their fair bargain.

The now established discipline we call as psychology is last century invention by a German psychologist, Wilhem Wunt.

The very first book were established in 1874 based from timely researches, back then psychology is still on the experimental basis.

Nowadays psychology is too wide to be gathered and grouped in a small thinking bowl, the human is a complicated being, hence psychology branched out toward the infinity.


Well, I've been rambling too much I guess.

I just laid the preface, the introduction part so far I guess.

But I promise, I will get to it later. But for now, let's end it here.
