great post man. i am left speechless, i was speculating something similar and came online to check for relevance and found your site. will definitely read up on it some more. let me kno what you think of this.. consider heart to be the central organ ( some people reason otherwise so ) now the connection starts from your nose, say nose is connected in series to eyes and then brain, info from nose must be read by eyes to perceive and that info together goes to the brain for analysis,note, it cannot or rather should not be connected directly to the brain, notice even if you smell something familiar you have to close your eyes to connect directly to the brain, the ears are on a seperate series connection directly with the brain,the ears again should have no connection to the eyes and nose, the only connection should be of a reactions, one which goes from the ear to the brain to the heart and then to the eyes and then to the nose, the brain of the heart as you suggested is rather central reflex dept. , in charge of storing and developing new reflexes. the brain is connected parallel to the heart and the heart is connected in series to the throat. the reason for such an elaborate explanation is, i think, if any of these senses/organs are affecting anyone else other than its forward connection, which can only be 1, it creates a disharmony in the body or rather is under constant stress, over analyzing and constantly heating up and burning out. for example, if your nose is ineffective and it does not alarm your eyes after picking up foul smell, your eyes in turn do not report caution to the brain, or else if the eyes are responding to the ears as first priority and not the nose, eyes should be guided by the nose and ordered by the brain, the brain is guided by the ears and controls the heart pump and explains the kind of wind pressure required to which in turn controls the throat and speech. now there is a possibility that because the heart is weak or brain is weak or there is just a big jumble up in the nervous and circulatory system. the heart should not effect the eyes, the ears and the nose their connection should be maintained as only maintenance procedure or reflex reaction but a one way connection heart to senses not the other way round, the heart expresses its demand or conclusions or questions or action or reaction through the throat which is to be perceived again by the ears and send for analysis, the result inturn will control the heart. i know this must all be sounding rather confusing let me give one last try to explain, or conclude rather, what i am saying is, its is marvelous to realize that the heart has a brain aswell because that explains so much , coz the only trick to be done is to shift connection from the heart's brain leading to eyes and ears, and rather connect all those ends to only and only throat. the heart brain and the head brain should not have a 2 way frequency, only one way, the mind job as to say would then be to send detailed environmental analysis and cognition to the heart to decide upon reaction either by the body or by throat and it reacts through sending adequate blood suplly like pumping oil in shock absorbers, a marathon runner will understand this fact better, because the only way to finish a marathon is by being able to convince your mind that i am not jogging or running and just walking at a better pace and you dont feel tired, the head brain does not send panic signal to the heart suggesting "pump it up, we are running !! " no need to reply back if you found it lame or retarded :) thanks for your post. helped me a great deal. tc Romilchhadwa@hotmail.com
