Sensation & Perception - 2


When I respond to an external stimulus I experience SENSATION, and how I process that information is PERCEPTION. My body, my senses the nose, ears, smell and taste, touch, etc. to gather, react, and explain the world around me. How fascinating is the ability of SENSORY ADAPTATION, I then wondered when did that spot on my plasma TV stop bothering me? I simply became less sensitive to that stimuli.

I found the YouTube videos quite stimulating.
My brain has a backup plan for troubling situations!?!
From Dr. Moss (YouTube video1) “A program built in to deal with life threatening circumstances within the deep temporal lobe and its associated structures.” A man explains his experience of an afterlife, awakening with a level of enlightenment he had never experienced before. In video 3 twins live a life so much alike as if they had telepathically walked each other through life. These videos beg to question is there more to develop and how?  In watching the remaining videos there were explanations of experiences that had me reflect on my own:
A Personal Reflection:
I had this dream that my aunt was sitting in her home on the couch, her kids (my cousins) where talking to her the youngest crying sitting through her. Through her = my aunt was transparent. I kept asking her if she was ok and she would not reply. The dream felt all too real. In the morning I phoned my mother to see if she had checked on her sister and I explained my dream to explain why I asked. Sure enough, I received a call later that day from my mom saying my aunt felt overlooked, tired, and kind of invisible, all of which she disclosed before my mother shared what I dreamt.
Therefore, it comes to no surprise to me that there might be more to our senses and abilities when it comes to the matter of brain and body. I do not believe I have some sort of ability, but it’s still makes one wonder what we are truly capable of. Or did my aunt send me a message?
