The Mind

Humans categorized as homo sapiens as well as other living creatures on this planet which we call Earth ...
Based on what we learned throughout our life, we know by our conscious mind that human beings are the most intelligent creature living on this planet and the only reason of it is because we, humans are able to think and act rationally.

As we know, science taught us that human beings think using the brain, yes ! The human brain is extremely unique because it actually gives human beings the power to think, plan, speak, imagine and etc... However, here's the question...

The brain is indeed an amazing part of a human being, but how about the mind ?
How does a human being feel existed in this world ?
Is it the brain or the mind who let's us feel so ?

Human being exists in this world is indeed a fact, but how do one confirms the identity of one...
How do i know that i am Nick ? and stays as Nick till the day i die ?
Which actually comes first ? Do i only born as Nick, live as Nick, die and Nick and never exist again ?

Human beings feels in control when our mind is in active and conscious mode... Self conscious allows us to be able to control our movements, actions and thinking... and that's when we're so sure that we're who we are now... For example, when we're awake... we know exactly who we are, what's our name, our parent's name, what we're supposed to do, our basic role, our personal responsibility and etc... But...

How about when we're asleep ?
Research says that when we're asleep, our brain puts into a rest mode where only a portion of our brain are actually still working where we're not completely dead...
Put it this way, when we're asleep... our brain rests, goes into a sleep mode where we'll be unable to perform actions when we're awake... this is called the unconscious mind...

In my personal humble opinion, i thinks that human beings has incredible mind because our mind allows us to feel existed... and knows our true identity...
i was once asked this question by my uncle, he asked me to tell him whether i think using my brain or my mind ? and i actually answered mind ...

Assuming the human brain actually contains a large storage of computer hard disk which is able to store a terabyte of data, a powerful processor which can run 4 times faster than the existing technology now... the brain can actually function like a computer where the mind is actually the person using the computer ! Imagine how powerful the mind could be...

Human beings are born with basic structure and almost everyone has the same structure and most importantly the brain are born the same with everyone else...
But, why would everyone actually thinks differently and has a different identity ?
The human body i would say is controlled by the mind where religion actually believes that inside the human body contains soul which after a person dies, reincarnation causes the soul to be possessing another new born baby and there, the start of a new life, new person and new identity...

However, i believe that it's not the soul but the mind which is actually the thing which controls and confirms the identity of one, feeling existed in this very body of one...
I always find the human brain and mind are the most amazing part of a human. The brain which is the physical, tangible one and the mind is the mental and intangible one...

I would continue talking bout the mind and the unique way of human thinking in my next post when i get more inspiration and knowledge while my thoughts go wandering about how fantastic one's mind and brain can be ... The most amazing part of a homo sapien is how one actually think which differs from one another... rite, this all might looks a bit like crap to some of you... but if you're interested we can surely discuss about it ! haha

tune in to my blog for more as more sux philosophy will be coming up =)

Human beings, known as the most intelligent creature on this planet because of the ability to think... however, which is actually the one controlling the human thinking ?
