The human brain

   We humans are the most evolved children of Mother Earth.  Man has dominated the planet since eons and will continue to. But what has made a man so powerful!?

   Man does not have the strength of an elephant, the speed and agility of a cheetah, neither the ability to fly like birds, the sharp claws of a tiger, the venom of a snake, night vision of an owl, ability to camouflage like chameleon, and the list is endless...

   But what is it that has allowed man to dominate all the five kingdoms of life? It's his ability to think, invent, discover, decipher, ponder, wonder, create, dream and realize the dreams. It's our well developed brain!

  So, Our brain is a master piece. No doubt...

It helped us create- machines with the strength more than hundreds of elephants, cars that ensure quick mobility, aeroplanes that breach the speed of sound barrier, prehensively created tools sharper than anything,  chemicals and bombs poisonous enough to wipe off the last bit of mankind, camera for night vision, computers to manipulate, calculate and formulate. 

   We have used brains to solve many mysteries. But the irony is, we don't know many whys and how's about our own nervous system!! We have many open questions in this field, challenging you to take the plunge and solve them. Like-

   •What are dreams? Why to we get them? Why is it that we see that particular dream that we see?

   • why is nature of people different? What controls emotions?

   •why does right side of the body control the left side and vice versa?

   •why some are more intelligent than others?

   •which part of brain is responsible for a particular action?

   •why nerve cells do not regenerate?

   •what part of the brain is the real "you". Where is the soul in our body?!

   •how is a thought or a new idea generated! I mean, it's something big out of nothing!!! How does it happen!?

   •what part in my brain provoked me to write this blog?


The mysteries about our own nervous system are such that our own nervous system is unable to solve so many mysteries about its functioning. 

So is our brain so complicated that our complicated brain cannot understand itself!?

Or is it possible that will evolution make our brains even more complicated that will help us understand it one day or will it make it even more difficult to understand it!?


 The purpose of this blog was to strike a spark of thought in your brain, and just think about it- how is a thought being generated in me...
