Hey george and blink,

though question you are working on. At the moment, there are still processes/regions in the brain of which scientists do not know what they are about.

For us as humanbeings it would have the effect of having knowledge of every single happening in C1. So we could all there is to this life know, and maybe make more predictions about how the earth will change (climate, vegetation, etc.) and offers to possibility to life as one with the nature (also by inventing technology, that works without pollution).

As now my flaw was fixed (sry for spreading misunderstanding), the question would now be, how we could be able to make more use of our brain (Boris and the_seeker have also mentioned this in their posts) , maybe there is a possibility to have access on more parts at the same time, for thinking, it would mean more effort, maybe it could cause a complete crash, because of the incapability of handling such a way of "deeper" access.
More braincapacity, that is accessable (I would consider it to be like this) would also mean more awareness of ourself. The absent belief concerning what is called PARAphsychology or METAphysics could be explored precisely and could also help decrease the uncertainty about wether the two of them are reliable sources and genres to have research on or not.
Very striking incident, when one lives with the knowledge of having unused space in the brain... .
I guess (have to do so, because I can only speculate on this one...) that with more ability of using the brain, the senses could also be strenghtened (seing, hearing, tasting..., feeling..smelling), it is at least a considerable possibility that the spiritual comes to our mind in clearer forms and we are able to have more access while contacting them.
With increased use of brain capacity, I also consider the will to increase, so we have more control abilities to control ourselves, so to say more will to explore the unknown behind the curtain.

But I am not sure if we can reveal the existence of the afterlife in general (as today again it is a matter of believe if it exists or not, or if we only desire it to be real, I think it is meant to be like that, that we have to stick to a certain believe)

Love,

pulsar

The idea that we use only 10% of our brains is completely a myth. But
this myth is very widespread.

Brain scans have shown that we use much of our brains much of the
time. Doctors who are familiar with this have remarked about finding
this myth everywhere.

My brain is overloaded much of the time, and I am in constant need of
time off for mental rest. Particularly certain tasks like computer
programming where there are many variables to keep track of will
cause my pulse to go up and I can feel the blood surging to my head,
causing it to get warm.

I often lose the ability to spell words, temporarily during these
overloads. But the ability to spell words will return later after a rest.
This shows that the brain circuits have been fully loaded with no room to
spare, for a time. There are also times during overload that I simply
cannot take in any more information. My memory wont hold it,
temporarily.

There is, however, a large part of the soul that is full of information that is temporarily unavailable during an incarnation. It requires special methods to access it.

thats a cool link. gonna go spread it around. hey! whats up with 3,000 books published daily?

no wonder I don't have any sales! Undecided

just kidding, despite the questions that the tube gives us, technology brings people together and I was thinking, hmmm. George, maybe our brains will get larger?

and in a century our forehead will stick way out. Grin

this is a myth that we only use 10 or 20% of our brain... we just don't use all of it at the same time. different parts of the brain do different things.

but there are stories of people being in accidents and becoming psychic... so who knows? maybe their brain was damaged in a way that made them psychic? i tend to think OOBE's don't really have anything to do with the brain, rather the soul.

Hey there,

my fault, it was a writing flaw (sounds stupid, but its like this), I meant this related to what is already known of our brain functions, and I somehow remember this stupid 20 % (was also part of biology class, when we learned about the brain, and had various comments on brain research from scientists such as e.g. neurologists, who confirmed, that there are processes/regions/connections between them, in the brain, that could not be explained clearly, it was just this year, so this information is not too old. Maybe I post it here, because it was a very interesting topic).

I'll modify my comment, with this in mind, it should make sense now.

@ Boris: I agree with you, sometimes there are overload phases in the brain, and it is sometimes a struggle to get balanced, sometimes its like the thoughts are keeping one awake, it is kind of outsourcing.
If I am in such a state of "brain overload", I make much writing mistakes, sometimes, if the phrases are too long, I sometimes forget at the end of sentence what I wrote at the beginning, sometimes there are missing words, or unfinished sentences.
Or if you really chew on a topic, it can happen, that this thoughts keep you awake at night, or even the next few days after, and that has negative effects on your ability to concentrate on what you have to do at the very moment. And it makes me always very nervous. Weekends are very short, aren't they? (I meant for recovery, as I am not into deleting my brain at weekends, no discredit to those who do, it is up to them to decide) It is just like Wednesday, when one feels the need to have the weekend back (it is often the case for me).

So if there was the possibility to use all of the brain at the same time (by 100%), it is questionable if we can bear it, as we sometimes are not capable of letting the impression settle, that we get by "normal" use.
Another one would be, if we try to be only rational in the normal state, if this would end up in over-rationalizing everything.

Love,

pulsar

I have read a couple of times before from trustworthy, level-headed, sources that this idea that we "only use 10%.... or 20%" or whatever figure people come up with, of our brains (and would have amazing abilities if only we could figure out how to use all of it) is an urban myth. I understand that there is no evidence to suggest particularly that there are parts of the brain we don't use, and it is normal that in different activities different parts are more active than others. No scientist is going round scratching their head over "how we can learn to use 100% of our brain".

PS Hadn't read the other posts when I wrote this. Good to see common sense and not just accepting every idea uncritically coexists with the open-mindedness to challenging ideas on this board (I once heard the expression "being so open-minded that your brain falls out" - which is obviously something to guard against ...)

PPS Pulsar - the fact there are (certainly) things about the brain we can't explain yet isn't the same IMO as this myth that there is a mystery 90% or whatever that we haven't figured out how to use. I understand this is not something that has any scientific basis to it.

For example - http://www.snopes.com/science/stats/10percent.asp

Hey orlando,

yes I know, that is why I changed the post I made before (check out the one from 17th august, I removed this percentages, as they are misleading and not verified) , as it was a writing mistake (sometimes I ask my self if I am really on line...), and I really meant it relating to what is known or either unknown about the brain (limited to what I learned about it in school and read on the net) and in fact there are unknown processes there, not that there are precisely 20 % that are used by us, it was not my intention to give scientific evidence for this myth.
My question now was what would happen if we use the 100% of our brain at the same time (and this does not happen occasionally, as information are usually transported through the exchange of acetylcholin, what is "freed" by an electrical impulse within cell no. 1, goes through the synapsis and clings on receptors of cell number too (surely happens more than one time.... just the simple outlook on how it works, if wanted...I will also post how it works futher..) , and that it depends on what information is given, what also determins which region of the brain really has to work on it.), I guessed it would all end up in crashing down by not being able to handle this impression that would be on our mind.
Normally, I can do one thing, if I concentrate on it and it shall be turn out good, but the more things I do at the same time, the worse the results on every single thing is. The next thing that was interesting for me, again the "unused space", at least we could say there are areas that are temporarly not used, as I said before, it depends on what the information the brain got was about, and if there is any possibility to train our brain maybe to be able to work by the "multi tasking method", being able to do more different things at the same time without lacking of effort to each of the different things. That was what I think is "striking" about having this unused space (at least temporaly and related to the information......had it the third time for now...), not being able to have a "full" access on every part of the brain let's say during one experience.
If you want to I can put the worsheet we had on brain reseachers in here (for sure translated..).
Seems like I do not stand on too thin ice.

Sorry again for this misleading arguments in my former posts, I try to improve.

Love,

pulsar

I'm no brain scientist though LOL . However I would assume since the different parts of the brain seem to be more or less active during different kinds of activity, maybe all of it would never be working at the same time?

Hey again,

Seems that it is determined by our mental abilities, to be able to fulfill one task, that gives us the possibility to bring at least good effort on this one we got.
