We must be aware of the stellar
power of rapid cognition. Most of us don’t spare a thought over where our first
impressions come from. Even before the neural circuit of our conscious brain
can attempt a decoding, our subconscious seems to form an opinion. Is the
cognition a result of acquired intelligence of our present life, or of many
lives that we have lived in the celestial space? It happens so often that an
opinion, a thought intrudes our minds and turns out to be true; odds have
chances to win but what prompts our minds to give an advantage to underdogs
when compared with established winners?
What is the rule of winning? What
prompts us to cheer a little known side in a game of soccer when the odds are
high that it would, eventually, be knocked out mercilessly within minutes? What
makes an underperformer overcome a giant one odd day? Self belief or tryst with
destiny, or a combination of both? Is there an equation behind or is that just
by chance? ‘Just by chance’ must also be driven by some principles, I am sure;
so what takes it to break the myths and achieve something stellar. Premonitions
have not been given ample of scientific leverage in our traditional medical
sciences; I think a lot about basic functioning of abstract human mind and the
more I think the more I get puzzled.
There are a lot of facts for
which the reasons are so many to choose from; there are a lot of ironies which
need judicious explanations; the dogma of premonitions, and human subconscious,
is waiting to be explored. Isn’t it time to get hold of all the ancient scriptures
and try to find a scientific basis for the mentioned nuggets of knowledge?
