Waiting For Some Replys...

[Guest guest]

I would like to have your ideas on a very crucial

point of science,which I describe briefly below. I am

working on this subject as a project and will be

privileged to hear your interpretations on the

following questions:

 

1. The light coming from an object is transformed into

electrical signals by the cells in the eye and then

transmitted to the center of vision in

the brain. And the electrical signals there are turned

into an image. For example you actually see this

message in your brain. Then who is the

one that sees and perceives the image of this message

in the brain? How do you define the consciousness that

can see this image in the brain without

the need of an eye?

 

2. Brain is a piece of flesh composed of lipids,

proteins and other various molecules. Could the

consciousness that sees this image be this piece

of flesh? Or could the brain cells make up a

consciousness that sees these electrical signals as a

sea view or an e-mail message?

 

3. No light penetrates the skull, which means the

brain is entirely in darkness. Then how does such an

illuminated, clear image is formed in

this pitch-dark place? For instance how are the rays

of the sun seen over the unlit brain cortex?

4. Also no sound enters the brain. This means there is

deep muteness where the brain exists. However, people

listen to all different sounds

inside the brain. The sound waves are turned into

electrical signals inside of the ear and then

transmitted to the center of hearing. And the

consciousness inside the brain listens to these for

instance as a melody. Then who is it that listens to

the loud music aired from powerful loudspeakers and

how?

 

5. The image is formed inside a miniature spot in the

brain. Then how is the three-dimensional image with

depth is formed on this diminutive screen? For

instance when I look at the horizon or the sky, how is

such an image with vast depth is formed at this tiny

spot of center of vision just as identical to its

original with the same depth and sense of distance?

What is it that gives me the feeling of distance and

space?

 

6. When a person sees a glass of water, in fact he

does not see its real form but only a copy of it in

his brain. The coldness that he feels when touching

the glass surface is not the real coldness of the

glass but only a copy of it. This means nobody is ever

able to feel that he touches the real glass. Since it

is not his fingers that feel the sense of touch, but

merely the sense of touch in the brain. Should we not

in this case conclude that people are never able to

reach the reality of objects and can never

touch the reality of a glass? But not every person

knows this fact. Everyone thinks they touch and see

real objects. Is it not strange that people

are not aware of this and they never think about this?

 

 

7. Nothing changes when a person is hit by a bus or

comes across a lion. Since, just like the image of the

bus, the sense of collision or the fear while running

away from a lion, all form in the brain. When I see a

bus, I see it at the center of vision inside my brain.

If I go and hold the door of the bus, I feel the

coldness of the metal inside my brain. Then I

cannot discriminate from this fact what happens when I

feel pain if a bus hits or a lion bites. Then is it

not very illogical when people say 'it shows I

am in contact with the bus or the lion because I feel

pain when the bus hits or the lion bites'?

 

8. We live the entire period of our lives inside our

brains. In a similar way, we also have dreams in our

brain. For instance when we touch a piece of ice in

our dream, we feel it is wet and cold. Or, when we

smell a rose, we get the wonderful scent of it. We

again sense the feelings of fear, pain, anxiety and

panic in a similar fashion. Then are the dreams and

the real life the same in this sense?

 

9. The person's own body is also included in the

images a person see. So, a person only sees the copy

of his own body. This means every person all

through his life lives in the cave in his skull where

he never knows what is outside, including his own body

and other objects. Now think over this

happening once more: Right now are you inside of the

room you are present or is the room inside of you?

Isn't the second alternative the right answer

scientifically?

 

10. Let us imagine 5 different people who look at a

garden of roses. Since every one of these people see

the rose garden in his own brain, then aren't

there 5 different rose gardens in the brains of every

one of the 5 people?

Is the color red that each one sees the same with the

other's perception of red? Would there be any

possibility to compare these?

 

11. We say that the original objects we see the copies

of in our

brain exist outside, but what if nothing exists

outside? Because we never have

the ability to test this or observe this. Then is it

not dubious that the

original objects are outside? At least there is a

50-50 percent possibility. Then how can we be sure

that the original objects are outside? If

there is no original object outside, then what is the

entity that makes the images and the senses in our

brain?

 

12. If we are living an illusion that has the

possibility of not

having any reality outside, then we may be existing in

a very different place.

For instance is it not possible for the entire

humanity to exist right over a piece of crystal? Or is

it not possible that the complete history of

humanity has been experienced in a place not bigger

than the head of a pin? Would there be anything to

stop us thinking in such a broad extent?

 

13. Some people are incredibly afraid when these

topics are discussed? What do you think the reason for

this may be?

 

Yours sincerely,
