The prerogative of the senses

No comments
Sensations and feelings were one mechanism that controlled the behavior of organisms for many billions of years. The whole process of the evolution of species, their transformation and modifications, rely on the development of subjective sensations system. Perceiving the world directly, animals have adapted only to those stimuli that are considered important. To those that they can feel and touch. Once in the environment that is radically different from the usual, the animal died. What cannot be said about the man.
Man has learned to rely not only on feelings. Moreover, the daily and misuse of the brain, has allowed suppositions and theories that are not in the present world. The brain was designed to quickly find the correct response to a given stimulus. But we have gone further, developing imagination, learning to anticipate the consequences of actions.
Bowing to the absolute rationalism and seeing the world as a creature that is not endowed with feelings, we automatically begin to operate within defined templates. By limiting himself only existing objects, we are the most efficient use of their potential. But we cannot go beyond the limits of his mind. Emotions and feelings are always a weak spot for the man. But they will always be the potential for development.
