THALAMUS (The Sixth Sense)

As is well known, many animals can sense impending danger or other happenings, can react to these and other happenings beyond the reach of sight, hearing or smell, and can most probably register an awareness of electromagnetism in the atmosphere, be it in the form of radio waves. Infrared waves, radiation or sunspot activity. Most people already accept the fact that the five senses of ancient tradition just do not represent all our known faculties. Women in particular are perceptive and intuitive to a degree not explained by any of the conventional sense. Among God’s creations, the human being alone has the privilege of being endowed with six faculties, one among them being the power of discrimination. He can study the conditions and act W/O committing a mistake. Hence he should conduct himself in much a manner as to leave on indelible mark. Man has achieved fame in different fields like music engineering, religious, literature and oratory. A rare instance of extending compassion, even to the lowest of living beings. The Plant’s which has just one sense that stands green in the memory of people. 

We all have one, although none of us has ever seen it. It is no bigger than our little finger, and until recently was not thought to be very interesting or important, But now we know it may well be by far the most important single organ of our entire bodies.

It is called the THALAMUS, and is a little pinkish, rod-shaped. Cluster of Nerves and cells, lying at the bottom center of the brain. Hidden out of sight below the enveloping folds of the Cerebrum or ‘Gray matter’. It belongs in fact to the oldest part of the brain and is now thought to be a kind ‘inner Brain’ of the highest importance to every human life. Some Scientist even-calls it the old Brain or reptile Brain.

We are all endowed, as it were, with two separate brains. The large main one, called the Cerebrum or cortex does all the day-to-day work required of it. Through its ten billion plus nerve cells, electromagnetic impulses ceaselessly flow, representing our myriad thoughts, ideas, impressions and all the constant signals of our everyday senses.

How does the Thalamus function? The Thalamus is known to receive all incoming sensations and to judge and co-ordinate them. When the Thalamus is affected, it sparks off other reactions in the main cortex (which is probably controls) and so a very special kind of ‘Brain is washing’ take place and the mind of most of us are ‘cleansed of Fogs, fevers, delusions and depressions, fears and frustrations.

Yet the Thalamus cannot be made to feel, nor can it be checked when it does feel.

                     

One of the simplest illustrations of the power, of the, Thalamus. Now being uncovered is the far merely inexplicable but quite common sense of the presence of solid objects, We are all aware of solid objects like walls, curves and so on without actual sight or physical contact, and often we involuntarily take avoiding action as we approach them. This subtle mysterious sense, certainly a Sixth Sense. Similarly, the Thalamus is most likely responsible for the way sleep-walkers avoid mishap whilst moving about in their trances also the strange way in which some people can pickup ultrasonic sound through the surface of their stain, not through their ears.

Within the mysterious recesses of the Thalamus must lay the key to such human problems as clairvoyance telepathy and extra-sensory-perception, each of which is now readily accepted as a scientific certainly.

In some of the experiments, at the Rockefeller Institute, Chosen people, who claimed to have these or similar powers, were tested under rigorous control, and it was found that, many of them could in fact, foretell almost to a second. When a telephone bell would ring or door opens, or someone say something, even what they were about to say.

Such Super-perception is a type of sixth sense says psychoanalyst Dr. Eric Berna.

The next problem is to discover how we can put the powers of the Thalamus to work to release for our own use the far-reaching and amazing new dimensions of the human mind to which it seems to offer the key.
