This book was released on 2019-03-31 with total page 58 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We are mortal humans. We are immortal beings. We are Beings entering this temporary world of the human experience to create, destroy, love, hate. All expressions of creation in their billions of forms. As mortal humans, there is little room for the realization of our inherent nature, let alone for it to be encouraged and nourished. The foundation of our belief system is conditioned and influenced by our environment, ancestry, genetic patterns and gender. Contemplating these pages invites in pathways to the unconditioned mind, where understanding our true nature takes us to the source of that which we are truly seeking. That which we long for, that will never exist in a world of duality, the constant flux and never ending suffering. This work awakens us to the Humanness of Being.

This book was released on 2012-09-17 with total page 593 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What makes us happy? What makes us sad? How do we come to feel a sense of enthusiasm? What fills us with lust, anger, fear, or tenderness? Traditional behavioral and cognitive neuroscience have yet to provide satisfactory answers. The Archaeology of Mind presents an affective neuroscience approach—which takes into consideration basic mental processes, brain functions, and emotional behaviors that all mammals share—to locate the neural mechanisms of emotional expression. It reveals—for the first time—the deep neural sources of our values and basic emotional feelings. This book elaborates on the seven emotional systems that explain how we live and behave. These systems originate in deep areas of the brain that are remarkably similar across all mammalian species. When they are disrupted, we find the origins of emotional disorders: - SEEKING: how the brain generates a euphoric and expectant response - FEAR: how the brain responds to the threat of physical danger and death - RAGE: sources of irritation and fury in the brain - LUST: how sexual desire and attachments are elaborated in the brain - CARE: sources of maternal nurturance - GRIEF: sources of non-sexual attachments - PLAY: how the brain generates joyous, rough-and-tumble interactions - SELF: a hypothesis explaining how affects might be elaborated in the brain The book offers an evidence-based evolutionary taxonomy of emotions and affects and, as such, a brand-new clinical paradigm for treating psychiatric disorders in clinical practice.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Present Book Deals With The Brain-Mind, Based On The Findings Of Studies Using Functional Neuroimaging, Cognitive Electrophysiological And Clinical Neuropsychological Techniques. The Meta-Analysis Draws On The Emergence Of The Mind From The Brain And The Control Of Mental Activities By The Neural Systems. Nevertheless, Interpretations That Determine The Contents Of Processing And Their Qualitative Judgements Are Not Limited By The Brain Or The Realities Of The World. It Is Possible To Create A Subjective World, Which Is Not In Conformity With Objective Realities. The Environment Controls The Brain And The Brain Has Learnt To Internalize Such Controls And Selectively Use Them For Dealing With Various Environmental Exigencies. The Human Brain Has Further Learnt To Self-Define Purposes, Goals, Self-Programme And Perform Actions For Achieving The Self-Defined Goals, And Has Become Increasingly Independent Of The Environmental Controls.Development Of Language Skills In The Brain Has Led To Extensive Verbal Transcoding Of Perceptions, Responses, Actions, Emotions, And Experiences, As Well As To The Creation Of New Relationships At The Conceptual And Reality Levels. The Same Neural Functional Systems Monitor The Process Of Creation Of Thoughts, The Mental Imageries, And Their Contents, Which In Turn Has Led To The Emergence Of Awareness Of The Processes And Contents Of The Transcoding. Experience Is A Product Of Sensory-Motor Events, Emotions, Their Cognitive Interpretations, And Awareness. Despite The Possibilities And The Presence Of Erroneous As Well As Out Of Reality Interpretations, Experience Offers The Highest Levels Of Personal Contact With Reality, Which Makes Man Crave And Explore For It.The Present Book Is Thus A Comprehensive Study On Brain-Mind And It Is Hoped That It Will Prove Useful And Interesting To The Students, Researchers, And Teachers Of Neuropsychology. The Detailed References Included In The Book Will Facilitate Pursuing The Studies Further. Its Language And Approach To The Subject Matter Is Reader-Friendly And Easily Comprehensible.

Download or read book Neuroscience at the Intersection of Mind and Brain written by Jack M. Gorman and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2018-08-15 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Neuroscience, the study of the structure and function of the brain, has captured our imaginations. Breakthrough technologies permit neuroscientists to probe how the human brain works in ever-more fascinating detail, revealing what happens when we think, move, love, hate, and fear. We know more than ever before about what goes wrong in the brain when we develop psychiatric and neurological illnesses like depression, dementia, epilepsy, panic attacks, and schizophrenia. We also now have clues about how treatments for those disorders change the way our brains look and function. Neuroscience at the Intersection of Mind and Brain has three main purposes. First, it makes complicated concepts and findings in modern neuroscience accessible to anyone with an interest in how the brain works. Second, it explains in detail how every experience we have from the moment we are conceived changes our brains. Third, it advances the idea that psychotherapy is a type of life experience that alters brain function and corrects aberrant brain connections. Among the topics covered are: what makes our brains different from those of other primates, our nearest genetic neighbors? How do life's experiences affect genetic expression of the brain and the way neurons connect with each other? Why are connections between different parts of the brain important in both health and disease? What happens in the brains of animals and humans when we are suddenly afraid of something, get depressed, or fall in love? How do medications and psychotherapies work? The information in this book is based on cutting-edge research in neuroscience, psychiatry, and psychology. Written by an author who studied human behavior and brain function for three decades, it is presented in a highly accessible manner, full of personal anecdotes and observations, and touches on many of the controversies in contemporary mental health practice.

Download or read book The Human Pathway written by Jim Larsson and published by Jim Knut Larsson. This book was released on 2010-11-15 with total page 343 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jim Knut Larsson establishes that the foundation for freewill, meaning and purpose is anchored in the latest findings in quantum mechanics and cosmology-empowering us to create the future. The Human Pathway is destined to become the catalyst for a transformation in politics, justice, government, economics and spiritualism. What choices does humanity need to make now, in order to avoid destruction? What goals can we set up to maximize meaning and purpose both for the individual and also for all of humanity? The Human Pathway might be the most important, inspiring and interesting book you will ever read. Our future depends upon your participation! Also included as an addendum: "What to do in case of arrest!" It could save your life or ... someone close to you! A must read! Some more questions ... What is "enlightenment"? Why the earth created humans? What would be the ultimate goals for humanity? How can you unleash your creative powers and create your own future? Why every act, movement and thought is a manifestation of freewill and why it affects the evolution of the universe? Why the living standard in the US declines daily? Why there are more than 3 million people in jail and more than 50 million with a criminal record? People in America always talk about "they". "Back then, 'they' castrated people who were homosexuals. "They" had strict laws against sodomy." They" did radiation experiments on the population. The question is; who are "they"? Revelation: Does it matter if you are resurrected at some point in the future? It is your desire to know the "truth" that drives your desire for resurrection. You will live forever as long as humanity-or if human intelligence lives on forever-because what is living, even if your ego is dead, is you being one with humanity. Individuals only manifest by their "clinging" to their egos. This "clinging" prevents you from becoming creative, happy and blissful. If you get rid of your ego, which should be everybody's goal, you will dedicate yourself to the eternal "now" and to serve humanity. A great quest is to help humanity reach its highest potential and to achieve "absolute" knowledge, "finish" the creation of the universe and acquire the power to recreate everything that existed forever. Then, at that point, you will be resurrected! However there is a final revelation and, if it is revealed to you, it will give you "absolute" knowledge and peace. This final revelation is the logical conclusion of this book. Understand what is written and the truth will be revealed to you. When it is, you will understand that it cannot be directly communicated and understood by others unless they have the same revelation! You will know that you have the final knowledge when you get the revelation and you don't need to seek validation for it! However, you want to share it with others! Study the revelations in this book and hopefully you will get it. You will know it when you do. We need to dismantle many laws and make society free again. We must get the government out of our lives. The benefit you get from reading my book is that you will be able to see through the myths. When you read my book, you will become an enlightened person. Actually after you read this book you will say, "I'm enlightened now". You will have revelations that will make you enjoy life more and become a happier person, but also you will no longer be seduced by propaganda. This, in the end, is a book of cosmic and spiritual enlightenment and enlightenment with regard to politics, economics and justice. What does it mean to be an enlightened person who helps secure the future prosperity and excitement of living for yourself and for humanity as a whole? Another bonus from this book is that you may no longer fear death. You will become a participant in the conversation and the future goals and aspirations of humanity.

Download or read book The Feeling Brain The Biology and Psychology of Emotions written by Elizabeth Johnston and published by W. W. Norton & Company. This book was released on 2015-05-11 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A reader-friendly exploration of the science of emotion. After years of neglect by both mainstream biology and psychology, the study of emotions has emerged as a central topic of scientific inquiry in the vibrant new discipline of affective neuroscience. Elizabeth Johnston and Leah Olson trace how work in this rapidly expanding field speaks to fundamental questions about the nature of emotion: What is the function of emotions? What is the role of the body in emotions? What are "feelings,” and how do they relate to emotions? Why are emotions so difficult to control? Is there an emotional brain? The authors tackle these questions and more in this "tasting menu" of cutting-edge emotion research. They build their story around the path-breaking 19th century works of biologist Charles Darwin and psychologist and philosopher William James. James's 1884 article "What Is an Emotion?" continues to guide contemporary debate about minds, brains, and emotions, while Darwin's treatise on "The Expression of Emotions in Animals and Humans" squarely located the study of emotions as a critical concern in biology. Throughout their study, Johnston and Olson focus on the key scientists whose work has shaped the field, zeroing in on the most brilliant threads in the emerging tapestry of affective neuroscience. Beginning with early work on the brain substrates of emotion by such workers such as James Papez and Paul MacLean, who helped define an emotional brain, they then examine the role of emotion in higher brain functions such as cognition and decision-making. They then investigate the complex interrelations of emotion and pleasure, introducing along the way the work of major researchers such as Antonio Damasio and Joseph LeDoux. In doing so, they braid diverse strands of inquiry into a lucid and concise introduction to this burgeoning field, and begin to answer some of the most compelling questions in the field today. How does the science of "normal" emotion inform our understanding of emotional disorders? To what extent can we regulate our emotions? When can we trust our emotions and when might they lead us astray? How do emotions affect our memories, and vice versa? How can we best describe the relationship between emotion and cognition? Johnston and Olson lay out the most salient questions of contemporary affective neuroscience in this study, expertly situating them in their biological, psychological, and philosophical contexts. They offer a compelling vision of an increasingly exciting and ambitious field for mental health professionals and the interested lay audience, as well as for undergraduate and graduate students.
