Some amazing facts about our BRAIN:

è There are no pain receptors in our BRAIN . that’s why surgeons can conduct surgery of BRAIN when the patient is still awake..

è There is around 100 thousand miles of blood vessels in our BRAIN..

è There is around 100 billion neuron cells in our BRAIN,, just same as number of stars in galaxy..

è Our BRAIN uses 17% of our body’s energy & around 20% of oxygen,, while constitutes only 2% of its mass..

è There are around 100 trillion synapses that connect the neuron cells in our BRAIN (enough to store 1000 terabytes of information)..

è Our BRAIN made up of 75% water,, produces power enough to light a bulb (upto 23 watts,, when awake)..

è Our BRAIN is split into 2 symmetrical hemispheres,, Left & Right.. The left BRAIN controls the right part of our body,, favours rational & analytical thinking.. While the right BRAIN controlling the left part of our body,, controls conceptual & visually oriented..

è To one’s great amazement,, even or losing one half of the BRAIN,, one would be able to still survive..

è Woman’s BRAIN is smaller,, has more & more nerve cells & synapses and works more efficiently than man’s.. They tend to be more emotional,, using left side of the BRAIN ore,, while men use the right side (which is logical).. Also,, the area responsible for nurturing feminine traits called straight gyrus,, is larger in women in proportionate to men..

While we sleep,, our BRAIN processes all the activities & informations gathered during the whole day.. In other words,, it is the way to process the complex emotions & interaction of our daily life.. People with high “IQ”,, dreams more than others & take 10 minute nap during day time..

Organ like jelly,, size of cauliflower,, weighing around 1..40 Kg,, contains approximately Hundred Billion Cells or Neurons.. Our BRAIN is the most complex organ in our body.. Our BRAIN controls the body,, execute each thought,, perform each action,, feels & experience the outer world..

The connectivity between these Neuron Cells is very complex.. Each Neuron Cell is connected with thousand other Neuron cells with the help of very thin fiber called Synapses.. There is thousand of thousands of new connection will form & thousand of thousands of old connections destroy every minute throughout our life.. These connections were change constantly..

BRAIN structure is shaped partly by genes,, but largely by experience.. New BRAIN cells are being born throughout our lives.. The BRAIN has bursts of growth and then periods of consolidation,, when excess connections are pruned.. The most notable bursts are in the first two or three years of life,, during puberty,, and also a final burst in young adulthood.. Our BRAIN ages also depends on genes and lifestyle too.. Exercising our BRAIN and giving it the right diet can be just as important as it is for the rest of the body..

Our BRAIN,, bring / collect information from our sensory organs & send them to a centralized location or we can also say the Central Nervous System to perform / generate a unified / purposeful action.. The ‘N’ numbers of thin fibres / muscles in our BRAIN worked together to perform complex activities.. In centralized location this unprocessed / scattered information processes & our BRAIN extracts the useful part..

After then,, past experiences & current needs are combined together to generate the best possible results(s) through Motor Neurons..  These activities require simultaneous activities done by various parts / muscles..

Information about sound & light,, atmosphere,, temperature,, position,, orientation & so on are preloaded in our BRAIN.. other creatures have different other abilities also like birds senses the magnetic field of Earth to find their path,, reptiles senses the heat through infrared to find their food or to identify the danger..

Each sensory organ have specialized receiving cells.. These cells receive / gather raw information & send it to the Central Nervous System in our BRAIN..

Our conscious mind can only focus on data from one brain at a time.. We can switch from one side to the other very quickly but that's not always the most efficient way to act and eventually ultimate authority to enter consciousness is delegated to one brain or the other.. This battle is generally won by the left brain..

It appears that most people will never reach their maximum potential because of compromises that have been made between these two governing bodies.. Sometimes skills which the right brain can perform better are routinely handled,, with less skill,, by the left brain.. Ideally,, both brains work together in people with optimum mental ability.. This coordinating ability may be the key to superior intellectual abilities.. In most people,, however,, the left brain takes control,, choosing logic,, reasoning and details over imagination,, holistic thinking and artistic talent..

Methods have been devised to "shut off" the left brain,, allowing the right side to have its say.. The logical left side is easily bored by lack of input and tends to "doze off" during such activities as meditation (repeating a mantra or word over and over) or in sensory deprivation environments.. The right brain is then able to "sneak" into our consciousness,, filling our minds with emotional and visual vignettes and freely associated images.. All too quickly,, though,, the left brain will assert itself and dispense with these irrational images,, asserting its Spock-like logical dominance and the right brain will have to be content to find expression in dreams..

Each Individual has their own way of learning & understanding things.. It is very difficult to get to know each & everything of their children for parents.. Sometimes it takes years to understand the character and inclinations of their children & sometimes they never really know why their children are the way they are..

In order for children’s behaviour to develop in the right way,, there is a way in Dermatoglyphics Multiple Intelligence Analysis (D M I A).. D M I A can explain children’s innate character,, personality,, acquiring style & intelligence,, improves communication & relation between parents & children,, help parents to know the best abilities in their kids & raise them successfully & easily,, guiding them in doing what they love to do,, developing their best potentials,, and making them happy children who will grow up to be quality adults..

According to the Multiple Intelligence Theory of Prof.. Howard Gardner,, of Harvard University,, one can discover their child’s hidden talent,, liking & potential.. And also learn about the unique functions of the human brain’s right and left hemispheres.. Through Dermatoglyphics Multiple Intelligence Analysis (D M I A),, one will also know the preferred Learning style & Communication character..

With the help of Dermatoglyphics Multiple Intelligence Analysis parents will come to a correct understanding before they put the knowledge to use with their children.. The aim of D M I A is for parents to bring up children who are happy in what they do and what they will become..

Julius Spier (1877-1942) 

Julius Spier was a Psychoanalytic and a Chorologist and worked with C..G.. Jung.. Book written by Julius Spier is widely known and acknowledged by professional Chorologist all over the world.. Spier's approach to the study of the hand was based mainly on his psychoanalytic background.. He placed much significance on the constant influence of our family and early life on our development as individuals.. According to him,, the reason of hand analysis is a way of freeing a person from societal and environmental influences that have reserved or concealed our true growth.. Published the Hands of Children Analysis,, Children's Psychological Personality Development using the Dermatoglyphics method.. 

Beryl Hutchinson MBE (1891-1981) 
After Jaquin himself,, Beryl Hutchinson was one of the known figures regarding the Study of Physiological Patterns.. Being from a well to do background,, she did not require any kind of money out of it and hence concentrated and devoted much time to chorology.. Consequently,, she became the driving force behind the society for thirty years,, and a substantial amount of that time being the society's president.. She wrote two books,, was mainly concerned with the importance of dermatoglyphics patterns and the demonstration of physical ill-health in the hand..

Noel Jaquin (1893-1974) 
Noel Jaquin is considered a pioneer in the study of chirological diagnosis in this century although he had also garnered expertise in the fields of health study and sexual and emotional evaluation from the hand.. He has provided a considerable amount of contribution to almost all the aspects of the chirological art.. Noel Jaquin's work is like a large canvas with an evenly sketched image,, outlining the breadth of the scope of the analytic prospective of the hand.. His two books named "The Human Hand" (1956) and "The Theory of Metaphysical Influence" (1958) focuses on his universal theories about life and everything.. It also explains his viewpoints and beliefs of hand reading.. In 1945,, Noel Jaquin founded the society for the study of Physiological Patterns (SSPP) in combination with Hilda Jaffe,, Beryl Hutchinson and Margaret Hone.. This society was devoted to support the significance of chirology as a diagnostic tool in the analysis of psychology and pathology,, which continues to flourish even today.. Researched and found that each fingerprint corresponds to different type of personality..

Francis Galton (1822-1911) 

Francis Galton was the cousin of Sir Charles Darwin and was a scientist having wide interests in covering anthropology,, geology,, biology,, genetics and eugenics published 240 papers and 15 books.. He has performed thorough research into the importance and stability of finger patterns not only to exhibit their use as a mean of personal identification but also to display the inherited significance of fingerprints and to specify genetic variations of fingerprints amongst diverse races.. The categorization of fingerprints proposed by him is much simpler than that proposed by Prof.. Purkinje delineating that only 3 main types of patterns based on the number of tri radii found in each pattern.. He recognized the tri radius as a very important indicator of a fingerprint pattern type.. His two works ‘Fingerprints' (1892) and 'Fingerprint Directories' (1895) are considered as classics in the area of dermatoglyphics and stirred the concentration of varied scientific investigators,, such as anthropologists,, zoologists,, geneticists and criminologists..

Sir Edward Henry (1850-1931) 

He was the Inspector General of Police of Bengal Province in India and also solved the problem of fingerprint classification.. After getting influenced by Sir Galton's book called Finger Prints,, he developed the Henry Classification System between the years 1896 to 1897.. The Henry Classification System found worldwide acceptance in a few years and a commission was established in the year 1897 to compare Anthropometry to the Henry Classification System.. After the overwhelming success of fingerprinting,, governor general of India came up with the idea of fingerprinting in 1900,, replacing Anthropometry.. 

Dr Harold Cummins (1894-1976) 

Dr.. Cummins acquired worldwide acknowledgment as the “Father of Dermatoglyphics” or the medical study of skin ridge patterns found on human hands.. His lifetime studies and techniques are known as the Cummins Methodology and widely accepted as an important tool in mapping out genetic and evolutionary relationships.. Cummins Methodology has acquired wide usage in analysis of the few types of cleft palate,, mental retardation,, schizophrenia and even heart diseases.. Whereas other fields are concerned,, dermatoglyphics is used to assist ethnologic and population studies and also to make positive identifications by police.. Studied all aspects of fingerprint analysis,, from anthropology to genetics to embryology.. He established the Theory of Dermatoglyphics in 1926 after researching on existing research with other scientists,, standardizing the definition of Dermatoglyphics which is commonly used today.. Dermatoglyphics officially become a professional knowledge in the field of research.. 

 Contd.....

Dermatoglyphics is the branch of science which studies the patterns of skin dermal ridges that are present on human fingers,, toes and the soles.. Dermatoglyphics multiple intelligence analysis helps us in telling the inherent hidden talents and give suggestions as per each person’s characteristics with no prejudice.. One’s fingerprints never change in the whole life so it is a completely different concept..

Since 1823,, scientists have discovered that fingerprint patterns and inner intelligence are related to each other.. Fingerprints are formed during 13th to 19th week of a pregnancy.. This concept has been confirmed by many researchers and has been published in many literature also.. Fingerprint patterns are consistent throughout the lifetime,, unless the forms of disturbances are introduced that changes the genetic composition.. There is details about scientists incorporated Dermatoglyphics,, genetics,, neural science and embryology with the theory of multiple intelligences mentioned below.. With the help of these,, a person's personality and hidden talents can be evaluated and classified consequently..

Marcello Malpighi (1628 - 1694) 

Marcelli is an Italian anatomist and microscopist who explained the outlines on the tips of fingers as part of an overall study of human skin.. He is also known by some to be the first man who conducted the study of tissues,, a histologist.. He used microscope for almost 40 years to explain the various types of plants and animal structures,, while doing this he also marked out for future generations of biologists' chief areas of research in embryology,, human anatomy and pathology.. 

Dr.. Nehemiah Grew (1641 - 1712) 
Dr.. Grew was the member of the Royal Society and of the College of Physicians.. He illustrated the “Innumerable Little Ridges” in the philosophical transactions for 1684.. He stated “for if any one will but take the pains,, with an indifferent glass to survey the palm of his hand,, he may perceive innumerable little ridges,, of equal bigness and distance,, and everywhere running parallel one with another.. Especially,, upon the hands & first joints of the fingers & thumb.. He also published exceptionally accurate drawings of fingerprints and palm areas.. 

Contd.....

There are many skills that one has and these skills are very much connected to each other and change as per training and usage.. Some skills are inborn and if used properly we can utilize these skills as per our advantage for giving best results.. It is essential to be aware of our strengths and weaknesses and improve them to attain the required results.. These skills are quite apparent in adults,, and it is better to groom them from childhood..

With the help of Dermatoglyphics analysis,, we can understand our children’s innate personality and learning potential.. Dermatoglyphics is complex.. Each of our fingers represents unique abilities and each fingerprint has different readings.. The potential of a person is based on the shape of fingerprints..

Although Dermatoglyphics may recognize the hidden talent of a person,, the person may not be able to reach his or her complete potential without training.. If our fingerprints classify that we have potential in art,, but because of lack of training and discipline,, one’s potential can be hidden..

Dermatoglyphics is the study of the ridge patterns of fingers and hands.. Instead of studying palms or hands to know about the future,, dermatoglyphics takes a scientific approach,, looking for features which are associated with certain disorders.. The formation of ridges begins very early,, in fatal development.. As a result,, people with congenital abnormalities,, especially severe ones,, often develop unusual or abnormal dermatoglyphics.. Doctors sometimes use dermatoglyphics as a diagnostic tool to identify congenital abnormalities,, and the errors in fatal development which contribute to abnormal dermatoglyphics..

Specific variations in fingerprints have been linked with a number of chromosomal abnormalities.. Usually,, other diagnostic clues exist to indicate that someone has a severe genetic abnormality,, but studying the hands and feet can still be of interest.. Some people also claim that dermatoglyphics can be used in the diagnosis of disease,, ranging from mental disorders to certain cancers.. Studies seem to suggest that dermatoglyphics cannot be used for this purpose,, as there are distinct differences between study samples and the general population..

The study of dermatoglyphics is also important in fingerprint analysis,, a technique which is used to link fingerprints associated with a crime or event to a specific individual.. Fingerprints are highly unique,, and especially when a sample includes prints from several fingers,, it can be used to link someone with an event.. Fingerprints are also be used to identify deceased individuals who lack identification,, and because fingerprints linger so long,, scientists have even successfully taken fingerprints from ancient mummies by carefully rehydrating the skin..

Scientific approaches to studying the development of distinctive skin ridges on the hands and feet should not be mistaken with palmistry and various types of fortunetelling which also rely on the skin ridges.. Although skin ridges can sometimes predict someone's future,, as in the case of distinctive skin ridges which indicate that someone has a chromosomal disorder,, they will not predict character,, preferred learning style or occupation..

We mostly use BRAIN and MIND interchangeably even though they really do refer to separate,, although often overlapping concepts.. The BRAIN is an organ but the MIND isn't.. The BRAIN is the physical place where the MIND resides.. It is a vessel in which the electronic impulses that create thought are contained.. With the BRAIN we coordinate our moves,, our organism,, activities and transmit impulses.. But we use the MIND to think..

Our MIND is the manifestations of thought,, perception,, emotion,, determination,, memory and imagination that take place in our BRAIN.. MIND is generally used to refer the thought processes of reason.. The MIND is the awareness of consciousness,, the ability to control and get to know what we are doing and why.. It is the ability to understand..

Our MIND made us capable to solve complex problems which differentiate us than other living beings.. Logic makes us understand that things are not as what they seem.. Our ability to analyze situations makes it possible to develop solutions to problems and lead us toward practical solutions.. We may not be able to see in the ultraviolet range,, but we may design instruments to do so.. Each stage of scientific research has usually been made by trying to reach a logical conclusion with observations.. 

Every animal,, mammals,, birds,, reptiles or fish,, has a BRAIN.. But our BRAIN is unique.. Although it's not the largest,, it gives us the power to speak,, imagine and problem solve.. It is truly an amazing organ..

Our BRAIN performs an incredible number of tasks including the following:

è Controls body temperature,, blood pressure,, heart rate and breathing..

è Accepts a lot of information about the world around us from our various sensory organs senses like eyes,, ears,, nose,, tongue & fingers..

è Handles our physical movement when walking,, talking,, standing or sitting..

è Lets us think,, dream,, reason,, experience and emotions..

All of these tasks are coordinated,, controlled and regulated by an organ that is about the size of a small head of cauliflower..

Our BRAIN,, spinal cord and peripheral nerves make up a complex,, integrated information processing and control system known as central nervous system.. They regulate all the conscious and unconscious facets of your life..

Our BRAIN can do amazing things and we can do amazing things because of our BRAIN.. For example,, we can accept light along the visible wavelength reflected from objects in our environment into our eyes.. Our optical nerves convert the light into electro chemical impulses,, which is the language the BRAIN uses to communicate.. As this signals passes along a neural network,, it reaches the region of the BRAIN responsible for analyzing and categorizing these impulses called hippocampus..

These categories determine which region of the BRAIN receives the signals routed by the hippocampus.. So,, a signal sent to the visual cortex suddenly becomes a large green metal road sign that we understand as our exit..

Even the most mundane operations of our BRAIN are pretty amazing.. Those feats,, however,, are nothing compared to some of the things that a small handful of people's brains have done.. What follows,, in no particular order,, is a tidy list of some of the most amazing -- and horrible -- things that our BRAIN have ever done..

Our BRAIN cannot act without emotions,, but the computer act only with logic.. Our many actions were totally controlled by our emotions,, while computer totally produce results only on basis of logical data / instructions feed by us..

The computer is very fast at logical computations.. We can do creative things,, but only by using preloaded data,, which only gives us limited results.. The computer cannot think like our BRAIN.. Our BRAIN is very good at interpreting the new ideas,, imagination and interacting with outside world..

Our BRAIN works for 24 hours a day while the computer can be turned off when we do not want it.. Our BRAIN is always changing and being modified.. There is no switch off button for our BRAIN even when we sleep,, but the computer has that switch.. Different from BRAIN,, there is a switch off button for a computer.. When the power to a computer is turned off,, signals are not transmitted..

Computers have no common sense or we can say they are not real intellectual like our BRAIN.. Computers only follow instructions preset by us,, they are not complex enough to understand,, analyze and learn about the world like our BRAIN.. Our BRAIN can learn new things easily..

The computer can do multitasks at the same time which is difficult for the BRAIN.. Such as,, counting backwards and multiplying 2 numbers at the same time.. However,, the BRAIN also does some multitasking,, like controls breathing,, heart and blood pressure at the same time..

Our BRAIN has 100 billion neurons which form trillions of connections is many times more complex than,, the mere hundreds of millions of transistors and circuit in computers..

 

Our BRAIN & our Computer both are used to receive,, store & produce best possible result(s) after processing the raw information.. Both have some things in common but actually there are so many differences lying there..

Computer consists various parts like processor,, hard disk etc.. Each part of computer is designed to perform a specific function & plays a specific role.. Our BRAIN also has various parts like right & left hemispheres,, lobes,, cerebrum etc.. Both our BRAIN & Computer processes raw information through various parts & produce result(s) or perform particular task(s)..

Computer works only on the basis of logic but our BRAIN uses emotions also.. Many actions of our BRAIN are based on emotions.. Computer performs actions or tasks on the basis of the raw information,, which provided by us..

Both computer & our BRAIN transmit information through electric signals,, computer through conductors & BRAIN using electro chemicals.. BRAIN uses chemical reactions to produce electric signals to communicate.. Our Neurons are gathering information constantly through synapses from other neurons.. Information which communicates through synapses does not always result in action.. This information alters the chance that an action will be produced..

At birth,, the human BRAIN is in a remarkably unfinished state.. Most of its 100 Billion Neurons are not yet connected in networks.. Forming & reinforcing these connections are the key tasks of early BRAIN development.. Connections among Neurons are formed as the growing child experiences the surrounding world & forms attachments to parents,, family members & others..

In the first decade of life,, a child’s BRAIN forms trillions of connections or synapses.. Axons hook up with dendrites,, and chemicals called neurotransmitters facilitate the passage of impulses across the resulting synapses..

Each individual Neuron may be connected to as many as 15000 other Neurons,, forming a network of neural pathways,, that is immensely complex.. This elaborate network is sometimes referred as BRAIN wiring or circuitry.. If they are not used repeatedly,, or often enough,, they are eliminated.. In this way,, experience plays a crucial role in wiring a child’s BRAIN,,  the neural connections that will enable to learn more words later on..

The basic building blocks of the BRAIN are specialized nerve cells that make up the Central Nerve System.. Neurons are the nerve cells proliferate before birth.. Infact,, a Fetus’ BRAIN produces roughly twice as many neurons as it will eventually need.. A safety margin that gives newborns the best possible chance of coming into the world with healthy BRAIN.. Most of the excess neurons are shed in uterus.. At birth,, an infant has roughly 100 billion neuron cells..

Every neuron has an axon (usually only one).. The axon is an output fibre that sends impulses to other neurons.. Each neuron also has many dendrites,, short,, hair like input fibres that receives impulses from other neurons.. In this way,, neurons are perfectly constructed to form connections..

As a child grows,, the number of neurons remains relatively stable,, but each cell grows,, become bigger & heavier.. The proliferation of dendrites accounts for some of this growth.. The dendrites branch out,, forming dendrite trees that can receive signals from many other neurons..

Our BRAIN is part of the Central Nervous System,, and plays a decisive role in controlling all body functions,, including both voluntary activities like walking & speaking and involuntary activities like breathing & blinking.. 

Our BRAIN has two Hemispheres & each hemisphere has four main lobes.. Each of these lobes has numerous folds.. These folds do not mature at the same time.. The chemicals that foster BRAIN development are released in waves,, as a result,, different areas of BRAIN involve in a predictable sequence.. The timings of these development changes explains,, in part,, why there are Prime Times for certain kind of learning & development..

Different parts of the BRAIN control different kinds of functions.. Most of the activities that we think of as BRAIN Work,, such as thinking,, planning && remembering,, are handled by Cerebral Cortex,, the upper most,, ridged portion of the BRAIN.. Other parts of the BRAIN also play a role in memory & learning,, including the thalamus,, hippocampus,, amygdala & Basal BRAIN.. The hypothalamus & amygdala,, as well as the other parts of the BRAIN,, are also important in reacting to stress & controlling emotions..

Schools can take advantage of this window of opportunity to teach language(s).. If children are able to learn to speak a second language like a native,, they should be introduced to the language by age 10..

Early stimulation sets the stage for how children will learn & interact with others throughout their life.. 

A child’s experiences influence the wiring of BRAIN & connection in nervous system.. Loving interactions with caring parents strongly stimulates a child’s BRAIN,, causing synapses to grow & existing connections to get stronger connections that are used become permanent.. If a child receives little stimulation early  on,, the synapses will not develop,, and the BRAIN will make fewer connections..

Recent research on one of the body’s stress sensitive system shows how very stressful experiences also shape a child’s developing BRAIN.. When children faced with physical or emotional stress,, one of these systems turns on by releasing the hormone coristol..

““Windows of Opportunity”” are critical periods in children’s lives,, when specific types of learning takes place.. For instance,, scientists have determined that neurons for vision begin sending messages back & forth rapidly at two to four months of age,, peaking in intensity at eighth month.. It is no coincidence that babies begin to take notice of the surrounding world during this period..

Scientists believe that language is acquired most easily during the first ten years of life.. During these years,, the circuits in children’s brains become wired for how their own language sounds.. An infant’s repeated exposure to words clearly helps their brain build the neural connections that will enable his / her to learn more words later on.. For infants,, individual attention & responsive,, sensitive care are critical for later language & intellectual development..

Research does not suggest drilling children in alphabet songs from different languages or using flash cards to promote rote memorization of letters & numbers.. Children can learn any language best in the context of meaningful,, day to day interactions with adults or other children who speak the particular language..

BRAIN cells are raw material,, much like lumber is a raw material in building for house.. Heredity may determine the basic number of neurons children are born with & their initial arrangement,, but this is just a framework.. Environment that given to a child has played a enormous role on how these neurons get connected with each other.. So many parents,, teachers & caretakers understood intuitively that loving,, day to day interaction cuddling infants closely or singing to toddlers,, help them to learn things more easily & effectively..

Our BRAIN begins working long before it is finished.. The same process that wire the BRAIN before birth also drive the very rapid growth of learning that occurs immediately after birth.. At birth,, a baby’s BRAIN contains around 100 billion neurons,, roughly as many neuron cells as there are stars in the Milky Way..

Before birth the BRAIN produces trillions more neurons & synapses (that connect neurons each other) than needed.. During the first year of life,, the BRAIN undergoes a series of extraordinary changes.. Then,, through a process that resembles Darwinian competition,, the BRAIN eliminates connections that are seldom or never used..

Our BRAIN contains about 100 billion neurons.. We can store memories of lifetime in our BRAIN.. Other big mammals surely have much larger BRAIN than us,, have more memories in their BRAIN,, but cannot compete with our other abilities..

Potential of our BRAIN is infinite.. We are able to make clones,, have ability to fly (airplane / space shuttle),, dive (submarines) with other even with other mammals & so on.. Other mammals don’t have these types of potentials..

Scientists are trying to map human BRAIN;; this project might take many years to complete,, to know the maximum potential of the human BRAIN.. This project helps to understand the human BRAIN more intimately / medically.. Currently the knowledge of our BRAIN we have is actually incomplete.. Because,, currently we don’t know or we can say cannot able to know / find,, what is actually been working in our BRAIN..

Scientists says that ““the blueprint of our BRAIN wiring might help them to understand about the learning,, gathering,, processing & responding functions  ””..

This project (blueprint of our BRAIN wiring) will also helpful to surgeons in understanding of diseases & planning of safe surgery related to BRAIN.. After surgery surgeons / doctors can also supervise the recovery better.. In case of mental disorder BRAIN mapping revealed structural abnormalities..

The myth ““we use only 10% of our BRAIN”” is only a myth.. According to Professor Eric Chudler University of Washington ““we use it all””.. BRAIN images have collectively documented activity in our BRAIN.. Small damage to our BRAIN can wipe out our major abilities..

A mammal’s BRAIN in comparison to a bird of same body mass / size is twice & ten times to a reptile.. Not only in size but the Cerebral Cortex is very different in shape in comparison to birds or reptiles or other than mammals.. There is a major difference in PRE-FRONTAL or SUPERIOR FRONTAL which plays a major role in behavioural issues..

Our BRAIN functions almost totally depend on transmission & responding of electromagnetic / chemical signals transmit by the neurons to other cells through Synapses..

Our BRAIN generates a electromagnetic field which can be detect outside BRAIN through modern technology.. This electromagnetic field create by tissues / fibres through electro chemical process done by neurons for working / signalling..

A major role also played by Glial Cells to control the chemical characteristics of fluid that surrounds the neurons in our BRAIN..

Our BRAIN consumes a lot more energy of our body in proportion of its size.. The brain typically gets most of its energy from oxygen-dependent metabolism of glucose..

Our BRAIN has mainly two types of cells i..e.. Neurons & Glial Cells.. Neurons considered as the most important cells or we can say the base of our BRAIN.. Glial Cells performs main / critical functions like development & structural support.. Neurons have the amazing ability to send electromagnetic signals to specific areas..

Neurons send signals through thin fibres called Axon,, extends from cell body & have many branches connected to other.. Axons can have extra ordinary length,, like the cell body of a pyramidal cell of Cerebral have the size of our body.. Its Axon would become a cable of few centimetres,, extending more than a kilometre..

They transmit signals in the form of electro chemical pulses,, which lasts less than a 1 / 1000 part of a second & travels at a speed of 1 to 100 metres per second,, usually in irregular pattern..

Axons transmit signals by means of Synapses to other Neurons.. Synapses are specialized junctions that connect Neurons to others.. A single Axon might have thousands of synaptic connections with others..

Synapses are the basic functional element or we can say the key element of our BRAIN,, Synapses are the points where or through where the cell to cell communication occurs.. Our BRAIN has trillions of Synapses.. Most of the space in our BRAIN captured by Axons,, are bundled together makes nerve fibres..

As we mentioned earlier,, that HEMISPHERES / CORTEX is our BRAIN is divided in four major parts called lobes i..e.. FRONTAL (divided in two sub parts / lobes,, SUPERIOR FRONTAL & INFERIOR FRONTAL),, PARIETAL,, TEMPORAL & OCCIPITAL LOBE.. There are cortical areas in each part / lobe associated with particular / pre-defined or pre-assigned functions..

The Right & Left HEMISPHERES / CORTEX are almost same in shape.. Most of the cortical areas in both HEMISPHERES are also same..

Our BRAIN is the centre of our nervous system.. It is the most complex & amazing organ / part of our body.. In the modern age of technology,, it is a challenge or we can say a mystery to scientists to know the mechanism or system by which the BRAIN activity gives rise to thought & consciousness.. The mechanism / system of some areas are now revealed but lot of things or we can say major parts / areas of functioning of our BRAIN are yet to be revealed..

Our BRAIN contains approximately 100 billion neurons;; communicate internally with the help of fibres that carries electromagnetic signals to specific & different parts of BRAIN & BODY..

Our BRAIN acts as a commander of our body,, controls other parts / organs.. The most promising / understood to general approach is to treat our BRAIN as biological computer.. While different from PC but very similar to take / gather information (input),, store,, process in central nervous system (CPU) & give most suitable / logical result(s) (output)..

Our BRAIN is just same as other mammals have.. But in relation with body mass / size,, it is much larger than them.. When talking to body mass / size,, our BRAIN is approximately thrice to the BRAIN of chimpanzee & twice to dolphin..

Other mammals don’t think so much,, they are only concerned about day to day activities or we can say predefined activities for their living,, such as collecting food,, sleeping,, reproducing,, defending.. Their BRAINS are organized or we can say pre-loaded instructions just to do those things which are necessary for their living.. Our BRAIN is very different in comparison to them..

Our BRAIN is wired with trillions of connections between neurons,, like a space shuttle is wired with thousands of electrical wires.. The connections in our BRAIN are made by synapses that linked the input & output with processing control system lies in our BRAIN.. Specialized functions were pre assigned to various BRAIN LOBES (various parts / areas of our BRAIN)..

è PARIETAL LOBE: Receives & process all sensory inputs.. PARIETAL LOBE is connected with our spinal cord through fibres.. These connections forms the blue print of our body structure in PARIETAL LOBE.. If this area will damaged,, the person cannot understand things,, because sensory inputs cannot reached the central control system..

è FRONTAL LOBE: Our motor skills & cognitive functions are controlled by our FRONTAL LOBE.. It receives input from PARIETAL LOBE & after processing release the result(s) through our speech,, writing,, body movement.. When this will damaged the person can understand the things but cannot produce any response..

è OCCIPITAL LOBE: Receives & process visual information & send to PARIETAL & FRONTAL LOBES..

è TEMPORAL LOBE: Receives & process auditory information & send to PARIETAL & FRONTAL LOBES..

Each living creature in this world has a BRAIN.. But our BRAIN is unique.. It gives us ability to understand,, imagine & express things verbally.. It controls our heart,, blood circulation,, body movement,, breathe etc.. Our BRAIN receives scattered information from our senses i..e.. eyes,, ears,, nose,, tongue & fingers / hands & gives the best possible result(s) after processing.. It lets us dream,, think,, reason,, express,, feel & so on..

Above mentioned functions / tasks are controlled & coordinated by an organ i..e.. our BRAIN,, which looks like an apricot,, weighing about 2% of our total body weight.. 

Our BRAIN constitutes a very complex,, integrated processing control system called Central Nervous System.. It control our conscious & unconscious activities..

There are about 100 billion neurons in our BRAIN.. Neurons amazingly gather & transmit electro-chemical signals,, like wires & gates in a computer system.. Neurons are of many sizes & shapes depending on the functions to be performed by them.. 

A Sensory Neuron (accepts signals from outer parts of our body & transfer them to Central Nervous System) on our fingertip extends the length of our arm,, while in BRAIN they are only few millimeters long,, have Dendrite body (branch like structures,, connected with multiple cells) by a long Axon (long projection along with the length of a cell) with a Cell Body (when cell body dies,, the neuron dies) in middle..

Our muscle movement are controlled by motor neurons (accepts input from Central Nervous System & transfer them to the outer parts of our body) have Cell Body at one end & Dendrites at the other.. Inter Neurons carry information between motor & sensory neurons..

THE CEREBRUM (The FOREBRAIN)

The Cerebrum is the biggest area of our BRAIN.. It is concerned with the functions like thinking & memory.. It is divided into two HEMISPHERES.. The Left Cerebrum controls the right part of our body while the Right Cerebrum controls the left part.. Each Cerebral HEMISPHERE is divided into four basic parts // area known as LOBES::-

è FRONTAL LOBE:: Divided into two parts SUPERIOR FRONTAL LOBE & INFERIOR FRONTAL LOBE.. Overall associated with concept,, planning,, reasoning,, organizing & problem solving.. The front is called the SUPERIOR FRONTAL LOBE or PREFRONTAL LOBE,, responsible for cognitive functions like behaviour,, emotions & determination of personality.. The INFERIOR FRONTAL LOBE exists just behind the SUPERIOR FRONTAL LOBE.. Processes like concept, perception & reasoning etc are the responsibility of INFERIOR FRONTAL LOBE.. Nerve cells that produce movement are lying in this area..

è PARIETAL LOBE:: Associated with movement orientation & perception of stimuli.. It contains the primary sensory cortex,, controls sensations like touch.. There is a association area behind sensory cortex that controls fine sensations which judges the texture,, weight,, size // shapes..

è OCCIPITAL LOBE:: Associated with visual processing, processes vital information.. It is responsible for visual reception,, also contains association area that helps in visual recognition of shapes & colours..

è TEMPORAL LOBE:: Associated with perception & recognition of auditory stimuli, memory & speech.. There are two TEMPORAL LOBES one on each HEMISPHERES,, located just above the level of our ears.. They allow a person to tell one smell from another & one sound from another LOBE.. It also helps in sorting information & also responsible for memorizing things.. RIGHT TEMPORAL LOBE is responsible for visual memory,, picture & videos,, faces etc..,, while the LEFT TEMPORAL LOBE is responsible for verbal memory such as names,, words..

To understand & know about the complexity of human behaviour,, first of all we have to understand the physical structure of the BRAIN,, which provides the basic fundamentals & insight of behaviour.. Our BRAIN acts as a control center of our body by gathering & processing  various information and release the best possible output.. All this processing has done with the coordination of various parts (area) of BRAIN.. Every BRAIN area has an associated function which are predefined..

Our BRAIN has two basic parts::

1. The Cerebrum (The Forebrain)

2. The Cerebellum (The Little Brain)

The cerebrum is divided into four parts / areas known as LOBES::

1. Frontal Lobe

2. Parietal Lobe

3. Occipital Lobe

4. Temporal Lobe

Frontal Lobe has two parts, Superior Frontal Lobe & Inferior Frontal Lobe..

Our BRAIN is the most complex,, but amazing part of our body.. It is divided into two parts (called ““HEMISPHERES””) – the Left HEMISPHERE & the Right HEMISPHERE . Our BRAIN is divided into two HEMISPHERES (Parts) by a longitudinal fissure.. Both HEMISPHERES are identical as far as appearance is concerned.. But when we talked about the functions,, both behave differently..

When we talk about a person being left brained or right brained,, we actually refer to the dominant HEMISPHERE of his / her BRAIN.. Each of these HEMISPHERES have certain functions to their credits,, based on which,, we can determine the dominant HEMISPHERE of the BRAIN..

Amazingly,, the Right HEMISPHERE is responsible for the functions of the left part of our body,, while the Left HEMISPHERE is responsible for the functions of the right part of our body.. It means that the right handed persons are left BRAIN dominant & left handed persons are right BRAIN dominant..
