This is the kind of pain that weighs a kilo, soft, beautifully painted, lying in a strong safe made of bones over our bodies, is a great magician. That which convinces us of a fact, we believe to be the truth. Even if that thing is just a delusion. Therefore, if this phrase is said about a magician, "Whoever wants to make your beauty charismatic", then that is the mind. It is so strange that the camera of our eye inverts the image of everything on the back of the eye, but the brain deceives our senses by considering it straight. That is, the universe around us is not at all what our mind accepts. In fact, our brains make us believe lies all the time. It's just that our whole life is going through the same deception.
In February 2014, the Internet opened a Pandora's book. Someone posted a picture of a golden and white dress. But that image became the center of controversy. The same picture was seen by some in gold and white, and in blue and black, where it became a symbol of visual deception. Rather, the lesson was learned that whatever the objective reality, we will believe in what our mind tells us. In the same way, many examples, because of the illusion of sight, sometimes we see in one way and sometimes in another way. If you are sitting in a stationary train and another train is moving forward on the side track, we will feel for a few moments as if our train is going backwards.
This means that not only can our visual senses deceive us, but other emotions can also be felt in a different way by sifting through the sieve of our brain. And in view of evolution, they may be necessary for our survival. Even if they are something else.
Different emotions are raining down on us from all sides whether they are particles of light (photons), sounds of different frequencies or waves rising from chemicals. But all these feelings don't mean anything to us unless they go through the brain. The brain separates unnecessary information from them and gives meaning to vital emotions which, instead of being particles of light, appear to us in the form of a garden, or take the form of musical jingles instead of frequencies, or chemical waves.
Feel the scent. This means that all the senses that reach us are useless unless they take meaning from the wheel of our brain. The brain, like a supercomputer, not only receives signals of sight, sound, taste, and touch, but also presents us as a useful embodiment of past experience, comparison with other experiments, and difficult calculations to extract meaning from it, and many times the absence of a single sense makes up for the absence.
How to make up for the lack of a sense can be understood from the example of Ben Anderson's life. Ben lost his sight completely at the age of three due to an unusual cancer. Ben used his language instead. The sound of a "tick" coming from the sudden release of the tongue with the palate. Ben made it his vision. After making a sound, it would hit various objects and return to Ben's ear in the form of an echo. Like a bat, Ben began to feel the world around him with the change of this reflexive sound and pause. That is to say, his brain did not make his vision a mere disability.
The brain is not a static organ. Rather, it uses every experience in its development. The more it relates to its environment, the more its power increases. The way muscles grow with exercise. In the same way the brain can be strengthened. In one experiment, a group of mice were placed in a dynamic environment where wheels, poles, water, etc. The other group was kept in a simple box. One month later, when their brains were measured, the first group's brains had gained weight.
In another experiment, a group of humans were fitted with a magnetic bullet that vibrated as it turned north. Within a few weeks, the group had a better sense of place and direction than other groups. Remember that most animals feel a magnetic field from which they can determine direction.
The brain sees all the received signals in its background. You can change the words of a paragraph written in English in such a way that you can remove many of the letters or change the order. The brain will read this whole paragraph correctly because of past experience.
Our brain can make something out of something in front of us. A 1949 painting by a Russian artist became the center of attention. Some people used to think of a black macab in the same way while others used to think of it as a dynamic identity of the arts. Similarly, cash coins make poor children look bigger than others. Or pictures of mountains look great when you are tired. It is as if the brain completes an incomplete picture with its experience and presents it to us.
In one experiment, the handle of a bicycle was changed so that turning the handle to the right turned the wheel to the left. Very good cyclists failed to run it because it was already frozen in their minds that turning the handle of the bicycle to one side causes the wheel to turn in that direction. This proves that if you want to familiarize your brain with a new technique, you have to scrape off the old experiences that are dull there.
If scientists did not ignore the old tradition that the world is the center of the universe, we would be deprived of the mysteries of the universe today. If the old ideas of writing and printing were stuck in our minds in the same way, I would never be able to write this whole column from my mobile phone today.
The human brain is afraid of the unknown environment because all its experiences of different signals are derived from a specific background. When this background changes, it becomes difficult for him to separate the necessary signals from the billions of signals of all the senses and then to create a new form from them. The same logic frightens a child or even an adult with darkness.
