emergence

 I know lot of people cant understand the miracle that is the brain. Ask anyone how do we walk, the answers will make you feel like you are watching loksaba television- you know just words and sounds which mean nothing- 90 percent bull shit and the other 10 percent shit.

How can we keep on thinking about something. How does the biology which communicates with each other seemingly with electric impulse suddenly emerge as "thinking", goal, and movement in cartesian space. The world i have been using for long time even in the book is emerge.

It is a word which has true meaning when it come to the brain. True emergence is reserved for emergence of conscious. You know the secrets thought which is emerging in your brain- what the duck is he talking, that girl was beautiful, omg that movie was crap, i should be cutting the radial artery to see how the life drain out slowly- ooo that went dark. 

the goal of going from the seat to take the remote- how did it happen. How did the materials in the brain do that. Did i plan it? did you plan? did you really think where is what geometrically and made the plan to move? do you know what muscle to activate to walk? are seeing important? dont people without sight walk? dont people who dont understand aerodynamics drive a plane?

The miracle of emergence. The emergence of thinking, the mind , the movement is truly a emergence, some have called it hard emergence in contrast to other places as soft emergence. why was i not taught these - so that i can understand the complexity of human- hmm. But i am digressing- whats emergence?

Well this is going to be - i dont know incomprehensible. Well the first thing to remember- the human body is a complex system. What it means is it has innumerable small systems or parts. when you put all these systems together something emerges. In most of the time you can explain with maths or physics - sort of reverse engineering. But we dont have the slightest clue how a biological matter suddenly emerges into a conscious. Suddenly around 1- 2 years you understand "you" are separate from others. suddenly the movements starts to emerge - how wonderful.

all from the star dust- the same carbon and other molecules which make our petrol, plastic you are holding in the hand to the water we drink- suddenly from that emerges the human brain of thinking- that think makes your world. fills with pleasure, illusion, anger and time (just a sample of things it make up.

enjoy life- when you are bored think about the evolution of brain and emergence of mental state.
