Rational brain activity

As science is the product of rational brain activity, a scientific work, an analysis of a piece of reality, has essentially the same message for all who are blessed with the necessary prerequisite knowledge. In contrast to science, it is not the objective of fine art, literature, or music to describe or analyze objectively existing reality. On the contrary, real art deals with a nonexistent world that is indefinable in any material sense, with a universe created in the human cortex. The message of an artwork is therefore ambiguous, its effect is in essence emotionally based. Everyone enters in his own special way into the spirit of an artwork. This is also true for the Holy Scriptures, art products of the human brain that played the most important role in the spiritual organization of life in the rising phase of human society and served the maintenance and development of that society. 

It is obvious that the manipulated brain of the masses, filled from birth with emotional misbeliefs, illusions, misinterpretations, myths, fantasies, motivates - given the right circumstances - irrational activities. In peaceful periods of the community rational brain activity is dominant and the irrational, emotional chaos is suppressed. There are specially organized occasions for the eruption of the volcano (concerts, sport-events, proper political party meetings, etc.). But in emotionally supersensitive, trying periods of the community (riots, revolutions, wars) the irrational brain becomes dominant. The immense literature that describes the history of mankind is, as a matter of fact, an exact description of the consequences of traditional manipulation of the human brain. 

Lipid metabolism effects. Grains, in the ration of rats at a dose of 68 g/animal daily for 3 months, were active vs rats fed tapioca. Total serum cholesterol and triglycerides were higher than animals fed tapioca. Glucose-6-phosphate levels were lower, and triglyceride lipase and lipoprotein lipase were increased over levels found in the tapioca group k Seed oil, in the ration of rats at a concentration of 10% of the diet, was active. Liver triglycerides were lower in rats fed rice brain oil than those fed peanut... 

The basal ganglia are part of what is referred to as the brain s extrapyra-midal system of motor control, so called to distinguish it from the pyramidal nerve tracts that control voluntary movement. The extrapyra-midal system is most directly associated with involuntary aspects of movement such as muscle tone and posture. However it has extensive connections with other parts of the brain, especially the frontal cortex, the seat of personality and rationality. This functional network... mediates volitional motor activity, saccadic eye movements, emotion, motivation, cognition and social behaviour (Wonodi, Hong, Thaker 2005, p. 340). Thus conditions that effect neurotransmission in the basal ganglia can be expected to have far-reaching functional consequences. 

Even though the individual is primarily focused on reaching the goal represented by a dominant drive during its operation (rational activity), the ability to simultaneously and consciously revive past experiences that are outside the limits of the actually operating dominant drive (irrational activity) is a natural endowment of the brain.
