My Neurons, My Self

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

With ever more refined techniques for measuring complex brain activity, scientists are challenging the understanding of thought, memory and emotion-what we have traditionally called “the self.” How do electrical and chemical currents translate to self-awareness? And why does the brain produce consciousness at all? Join a discussion among eminent neuroscientists, philosophers and psychologists who are redefining what it means to be human.
This program is part of the Big Ideas Series, made possible with support from the John Templeton Foundation.
Original Program Date: June 5, 2016

    We live in the present only. The past is represented by our distorted memories. My memory is what makes myself different from anybody else. If my memory get erased, I die (Short Circuit 2). However, it could be not that bad if I can learn the same thing in a shorter time. It is refreshing to hear so many people who bring their own opinion in a complementary way. The questions are pertinent and help the conversation to progress.

    I feel it is always nicer when we hold space to contemplate before dishing out our opinions or other products as answers to questions. We all seem to be prepossessed with the desperation to prove ourselves from a sense of importance perhaps due to the many things we have learnt that we do not allow the space for the truth to be channeled through us.

    Will we ever understand the mind? I don't see that happening my life time but I do think we are in the begining of understanding. And that is progress in our evolution itself ! We as "human beings" are ever evolving and how we think and understand "self" will ever be changing as we all evolve into our true self. Knowledge is power and understanding others is huge in knowing ourselves, but the first steps are now in place I believe by just accepting a different way of understanding. Opening answers to our mind begins inside each of us but by starting to see another's belief as well as our own will allow so many more new answers! We may not be completely doomed yet as human beings, we may still be able to actually come back to we are all one consciousness connected in so many more ways than we ever thought possible!!

    We are a brain, the stuff that we think to be ourselves (I, me, thinker, lover, etc.) are tools/creations of the brain. Nature created quantum intelligence and we are it. The brain is using all available information (conscious and subconscious) to output it’s will, we are the conduit for the conscious output of the brain.

    When we are conscious of our Selves, our voice & gesticulations, both voluntary & involuntary in our conversation with others and their reaction to our action or reaction to them WE=mc2 experience each one in the whole of The One Experience. When WE=mc2 can perceive with no need of memory we are connected with LIFE=mc2 As IT Is. Now must stay! When no impression can be a significant factor in memory then a leap in Conscieness is made to be more Super Conscious than the last.

    A neuron, neurone (old British spelling) or nerve cell, is an electrically excitable cell[1] that communicates with other cells via specialized connections called synapses. It is the main component of nervous tissue in all animals except sponges and placozoa. Plants and fungi do not have nerve cells. Neurons are typically classified into three types based on their function. Sensory neurons respond to stimuli such as touch, sound, or light that affect the cells of the sensory organs, and they send signals to the spinal cord or brain. Motor neurons receive signals from the brain and spinal cord to control everything from muscle contractions to glandular output. Interneurons connect neurons to other neurons within the same region of the brain or spinal cord. A group of connected neurons is called a neural circuit. A typical neuron consists of a cell body (soma), dendrites, and a single axon. The soma is usually compact. The axon and dendrites are filaments that extrude from it. Dendrites typically branch profusely and extend a few hundred micrometers from the soma. The axon leaves the soma at a swelling called the axon hillock, and travels for as far as 1 meter in humans or more in other species. It branches but usually maintains a constant diameter. At the farthest tip of the axon's branches are axon terminals, where the neuron can transmit a signal across the synapse to another cell. Neurons may lack dendrites or have no axon. The term neurite is used to describe either a dendrite or an axon, particularly when the cell is undifferentiated. Most neurons receive signals via the dendrites and soma and send out signals down the axon. At the majority of synapses, signals cross from the axon of one neuron to a dendrite of another. However, synapses can connect an axon to another axon or a dendrite to another dendrite. The signaling process is partly electrical and partly chemical. Neurons are electrically excitable, due to maintenance of voltage gradients across their membranes. If the voltage changes by a large enough amount over a short interval, the neuron generates an all-or-nothing electrochemical pulse called an action potential. This potential travels rapidly along the axon, and activates synaptic connections as it reaches them. Synaptic signals may be excitatory or inhibitory, increasing or reducing the net voltage that reaches the soma. In most cases, neurons are generated by neural stem cells during brain development and childhood. Neurogenesis largely ceases during adulthood in most areas of the brain. However, strong evidence supports generation of substantial numbers of new neurons in the hippocampus and olfactory bulb.[2][3] Wikipedia

    I think all the similarities we are finding can be proof of other dimensions especially the 4th or 5th. The fact that these things line up makes me think as we look out ward we are also looking inward like the tesseract cube. We are seeing all the sides at once. It's why we are able to compare thing with analogies and metaphors. Makes me think there is a singular code or source where all things come from.

    I love this so much, as a former advanced differential Audiologist I knew this was happening! Forty years ago. I knew it! I was almost a savant. With only a Graduate degree. I was ahead of this so long ago. I could visualize the afferent and efferent auditory pathway. Please understand I bent I Q test for fun in the 70’s. But my limitation was I was dyslexic! My specialty was speech in noise. With patients who minimal SNHL. My Graduate Advisor was the Great Dr. Dan Orchic. Who studied under Dr. James Jerger. Who was the bases of Advanced Clinical Differential Audiology. Under these men of intense intelligence, In my first semester diagnosed a L Temporal lobe lesion. I showed my results to my supervisor Dr Ed Goshorn. He looked at my results and said I will co-sign this. I submitted my results. The only CT in Memphis verified my results! There was no victory lap. We were discussing a real person w this condition. So now the best Neural Surgeons we’re called in. Unfortunately my patient expired in the OR! I was crushed! My future was established, yet I wore the lose of my funny intelligent patient was gone. I moved on and went back into the Military Audiology Program, they saw me as a future prodigy. But Military, please excuse my dyslexia, if I could speak this I would sound like the man I was/am. The VA never appreciated my talents. My IQ scared my supervisor’s. Yet I was the Audiologist who did the ABR or BSER evaluations. I could diagnose MS in a patient before Neurologist. I could work my equipment like a classic violinist. My supervisor finally admitted to me that I was one of the most intelligent man he had ever seen, yet you are a pain in the ass employee. He was a fool. Once he questioned me on my clinical skills, the wolf in me tore into him, sending him into his office for the rest of the day, yet I was so strong I pulled my mental tyraid. He basically was a good man, just a poor supervisor. Several times I could have had him fired. I saw twice the number of patients as my coworkers. Of course, no accolades. I single handed w my technician bonded the VA and The Military. We transferred well over 300 veteran’s, eliminated the backlog of patients from both the Air Force and the Army. Again minimal accolades. I did not care, but the Chief of Surgery reached out and gave me his private number. From his power, and our often private discussions I did finally change the VA. My supervisor could not fathom how I knew the results of all Chiefs meetings. My supervisor became a laughing man to the powers of the VA. I mentioned to my friend that this man had seven employees yet was too busy to see patients. He was called to see my friend immediately. I responded to our secretary that I would bet Dr. Charlip would be seeing more patients while he was gone. He came into the OPC and as I knew announcing he would be seeing a full schedule. I had a severe injury while I was acting Chief of Audiology of what was BAMC. I was to be promoted to O6 upon my return to my unit. As life has its ironies, I was held on medical hold. Where, my position was held for me to recommend the person to replace me. I did. So this prior enlisted man retired as a O5. On medication that addled my brain. I finally miscalculated my meds and forced myself into home rehab. The only one to know was my eldest son. My fear was he would fly out to help. So I did not tell him the hell I was going thru. Three weeks later, I am back!

    Acceptance, self esteem and confidence for example are often restricted or encouraged by the apparent "common" laws. So for me, to go back to the "reward/punishment" social behaviour example used earlier, people, myself even, are restricted by a fear of misunderstanding. More specifically, a fear of being punished for doing something "illegal" or wrong. Like substance use, if I use a stimulant medication that is accepted or prescribed, then that is most often ok. So I fear being interrogated unwillingly, because I mighten want to be ostracized for behavioral habits. Whereas if I felt that there was no need to fear punishment, I probably share too much information about myself haha.

    I have similar thoughts. Misunderstanding is one of my absolute biggest fears. I'm emotionally ambivalent when it comes to being judged and the consequences that may come from that. My mental illness has kinda forced me to separate myself from those feelings and reactions. I've had to just accept being misunderstood and judged, out of self-preservation. I don't have a choice, I can't change my brain even if it scares people (myself included). I'm sure many has done that journey regardless of if they have experienced the social consequences of stigma around different mental illnesses. Often times having a mental illness, specifically ones with psychotic symptoms, immediately makes you ostracized. That's what I was referring to when I said that I had no choice but to accept. "They fear what they do not understand", but I don't want to be someone's fear simply because of existing. So I must try to change my perception/perspective otherwise I will further disassociate myself from all of you which can likely compromise the safety of my life. Hence: self-preservation. It's really hard though. This got a little dark, sorry

    Awareness is primordial; it is the original state, beginning-less, endless, uncaused, unsupported, without parts, without change. Consciousness is on contact, a reflection against a surface, a state of duality. There can be no consciousness without awareness, but there can be awareness without consciousness, as in deep sleep. Awareness is absolute, consciousness is relative to its content; consciousness is always of something. Consciousness is partial and changeful, awareness is total, changeless, calm and silent. And it is the common matrix of every experience.… Interest in your stream of consciousness takes you to awareness. - I Am That: Talks with Sri Nisargadatta Mahara

    This is great, but it cracks me up to hear these top notch brain specialists talking about really 'looking' at someone as an exercise. We were doing that back in 1969 at Esalen when I was only 17 years old, attending on a work scholarship. We got naked too and in our different groups we created the perfect body composite from each person's best feature. Everyone else in the group were , all older, East Coast Execs and wives----this was pretty shocking to everyone at first but turned out to be really fun. They chose my bubble butt (which unfortunately has since disappeared). I must say, it was a great ice breaker for a lot of uptight people. Congress should try it, but the public should not be subject to see it.

    That fact that philosophy is up on the stage right now and just actually now being taken seriously with the science of our minds is so awesome! I love this and personally I now think we can learn more that we can accept other sciences and such. My finace has a brain injury and doctors have been wrong so far with things shown on his CT scans. There is this connection between our minds and others and I love now this can be seen and I believe will help the more studied. Our brains are still far more complicated and advanced then we may come to see and find in this lifetime. I wonder how many of the guest on stage are Geminis? Or have heavy Gemini placements ? And one day when we get it that we have to bring everything in for understanding of our "self" then I believe answers will be found!! Trying to understand what we don't know exactly how it works, is both philosophical and science but so much more !!! We are all connected and to not just each other but to everything, it's there will we find our answers.

    I was disappointed how all the panelists skirted around the question of whether or not an exact replica of me would still be me. The pat answer (which they all gave) is that as soon as the two individuals have a different experience then they will be different. Yes obviously, but I find this to be a cop out answer. The "me" today is the same "me" as yesterday even though the "me" from yesterday has yet to experience what I experienced today. Likewise, "me" tomorrow will also have new experiences but I have no doubt that he will still be the same "me" as today. Think of it this way. The fundamental difference between me and everybody else is that I am me and everybody else is not me. So the question then is: Would an exact replica of me be "me" or "not me".

    Studies have shown that when human beings use their hands to work, that the brain rewards them. The hand to brain communication is essential. The brain is rewarded when we use our fingers and hands. I would think that is because it was essential in our evolution and survival. Children should create, make things, work on puzzles, create mazes, play board games, draw, color, build, and read physical books and read aloud and especially exercise, run, play and have fun. Digital devices are tools for learning and helping us, but with developing brains, too much screen time is not good. The biggest problem is when children and adolescents forget that they are living in reality, a real world, losing touch with what it means to survive.

    I also wonder if we (like a computer) are able to pick up and process the information that is being passed through frequency (airwaves). ?? Why not I wonder? If it were possible, it might explain why or how I have at many times spat out some information that I shouldn't or couldn't have known already. People have asked me in the past why I said a certain thing at a specific time, I explained that I could only assume but didn't really know to be honest and proceeded to ask why? My brother for example mentioned that he was thinking about that in some context and that he hadn't ever hinted at mentioning anything like it before and even n it really thought about it for a long time. He was happy that I was able to answer his question so to speak, asked who I was really because I am often very different with that gift.

    Couldn't get past the first guest speaker, which is a shame because it's a fascinating topic. He asked what she studied, all she had to say was real time neurological activity during communication. Instead, she waffled on endlessly about sociology and the fancy equipment she got to play with. Bait and switch.

    Where are memories stored from those we have from ages 2 - 3 years old? One memory was of myself wondering why I told my slightly older brother that raisins have spiders inside. My way of understanding that I had self reflecting thinking, very early. It has never ceased. And why did I say that? Today, I'm wondering if I it had to do with revenge for something he did to me. I'll bet Freud would have a different answer. 🤨🤔😁

    There was a banana plant that sent a shoot and another grew and the old one died. That banana plant sent up a shirt of it's own, and it grew up and replaced the other. The different banana plants lived in the same pot. There was a rose, the or petals fell off in a windstorm. Three me petals emerged from the center and more fell off. Again this happened. And even once more, the center made a new one, and the flower was now young. Now the flower is one year older than the skin it was born in. On a side note, everyone is born in tepid water they don't see they're almost boiling.

    Consciousness is awareness of being present and the only way we can be aware of our existence or the awareness of an existence, is if the opposite of it's element also exists. THE ONLY WAY TO KNOW OF SOMETHING IS TO HAVE THE ABILITY TO COMPARE IT TO WHAT IT IS NOT.

If we had people like Martha Nassubam, Jeffrey Shwartz, and Joshua Greene, it would have been more satisfying. Absurd that she threw Free will out of the window and didn't consider the idea of "Free Won't", though surely she can find studies that support her say.
