Reticular theory…

Do you know what is Reticular theory? We will come to that!

The secrets of secrets revealed another important fact which is well known! We will come to that also!

The whole human species and the book is finally a homage to the most powerful weapon of them all!

In a series made by Warner brothers called Batman the animated series each and every episode is a classic! Young gen may laugh at the animation or the effects but even they would be amazed at the deft direction and story telling!

Even now those 20 minute episodes can make you sit up and be amazed!

In one such episode the caped crusader is made to answer a question the answer to which will determine his life!

The question-“I have millions of eyes, yet I live in darkness. I have millions of ears, yet only four lobes. I have no muscles, yet I rule two hemispheres. What am I?”

Batman in his regular style would tell the answer to the Riddler! The only thing even you; Enigma would bow down to everyday and respect!

The answer : That’s simple: the HUMAN BRAIN!!

It has millions of visual and auditory nerves, four lobes and two hemispheres!

It has been postulated that the brain often works as a single unit and this is called the reticular theory!

Reticular theory is an neuroscientific concept proposed by Joseph von Gerlach and supported by Camillo Golgi, which posited that the nervous system is a continuous, fused network of nerve cells, functioning as a single syncytium rather than as discrete, independent units.

This theory was ultimately disproven by Santiago Ramón y Cajal, who demonstrated that nerve cells are distinct entities communicating through synapses, a finding that led to the neuron doctrine.

Then again like in the novel it has often been mentioned that you are a single unit! Like how it is mentioned that you have ‘muscle’ memory! Which according to Dan is oxymoron! Since muscle does not have ‘memory’! The memory is in the brain which activates those points and then you can ride a bicycle even after ages! It is all in the BRAIN!

Then again your brain and your body is a single unit! And in that line so is your country! On that note, take a moment to wish your Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi ji a very happy birthday!

Jai Hind!
