COSMOS, LIFE, MATTER AND SPIRIT

3/28

Sensory organs can be many, they may have different function and sensitivity. In different biological bodies we can see unique abilities of perception. In the inexhaustible variety of biological bodies we will find some animals that receive information of one phenomenon while the other animals do not. Certainly, animals also have a rudimentary thought, but not what we mean in the narrow sense even for the most stupid human. The thought of the animal - as shown by its behavior and learning processes - is closer to short associations and short memories and closely related to its experiences (such as fear, ferocity, pain, pleasure). If we do inventory of the sensory capacities each animal has and its brief mental abilities, we will definitely remain speechless by our surprise. This is why researchers who are trying to get inspiration and get ideas from animal abilities and to transfer ideas to technology and to we have them as well. However, do not compare the whole fauna and the census of all animal abilities with the mental / intellectual capacity of only one human. And of course, with the phrase "spiritual / intellectual capacity" of human, we do not mean that human is wiser or smarter or rightly informed. We will find that precisely opposite happen ... and maybe will be scare: Human with his mental / intellectual capacity rather loses contact with the real (social and natural) world. Human no more wise is, but rather haunted by lies, imagination and insignificant information.

The information of the senses is not all knowledge and the only form of knowledge. Many people imagine that without the thought and knowledge in the form of concepts and words, we would again have all the information of the senses in our human memory as much as now. Well, if they want to see how much knowledge remains from the "knowledge" of the senses, they have to look at all the other animals of nature compare to human. Take notice of the difference! The most stupid human has spiritual choices and information of absent things, while the animal is mostly irritated by the temporary information of the senses and by biological information that it does not investigate. We should give an explanation for this difference between human and animal. The experience and conscious memory are limited without thought and language and then we can not observe and learn anything that is not perceptible. Because the senses detect only that irritating the corresponding organ. But many different things have relations between them which are not noticeable, most of the time. Two things that are remote (eg moon and sun) have relations that are not revealed by the senses. It is need, a variety of phenomena linked together to be observed, but the sensation may not show how all of phenomena are connected together. For example, the sensation will not show to an ancient human how another human voice is heard from a small device called "radio". Ancient people will check over it without understanding how it works... Perhaps can get a better knowledge only after a lot of educational efforts and by rational guiding the research.

Information and knowledge in its broadest sense is the essence of the soul of the biological bodies that is externalized by sounds and all their movements. The fundamental feature of life is self-regulation with information as every biological body has for itself and with mental processes of choice, assessment and removal of information. The identification of the soul with the information and the most immediate phenomenon, which is the self-regulation of life, require revision of some ancient meanings we attribute to some ordinary words such as "life", "soul", "animate", "spirit". Then many features of psyche/soul are revealed rationally in a unified manner with all the variety of information and its variability.
