born out of a epiphany I came to this staggering hypothesis .
the "Simple"
the mind reads and deciphers the sensations of what we touch, taste, hear, and thinks. In response it also will attach a sensation to it. pain/pleasure, delicious/disgusting, or soothing/irritating.
In response to these attached sensations we [the human being] react accordingly in either actions of avoidance, performing or exposing our senses to those stimuli to feel these sensations.
For example a red chili pepper has a chemical used as the plants defense against animals from eating it when contact is made with the tongue it triggers a 'burning' like feeling.
Ordinarily the mind would attach a memory like 'don't eat this again it is painful' with a simulated 'burning' on your tongue to help you remember not to eat it.
Here's the twist. a pepper actually has x4 the vitamin C then a large Orange.
"the Complex"
The brain finds this out and alters its registration of that jalapeño burn from a pain reaction...to a pleasurable sensation. So when you eat a jalapeño you are rewarded with pleasure for the act of consuming a Vitamin C packed vegetable.
"the Confusion"
With is where my hypothesis comes to light.
If the brain is sending these messages and sensations that are in turn registered by the brain itself.
Then why does it do this? The mind controls the body as well as reading what stimuli the body gathers. Are our own minds pleasuring their own reactions, or is it communicating to itself?
Is it possible that the brain is not just a organ in the skull but a colony of multiple organisms? each cell that make up the brain could possibly be a separate 'sentient' organism?
