Synaptic Firestorm

We are such complex machines. So very fascinating the computations of the brain, but why can we only have a glimpse of comprehension of the mind. Why is it that we cannot wrap ourselves around it? Maybe this comes with our next evolution, the next leap of emotional response. To arrive at emotional conclusions based on rational thought.

---Faster than you can possibly imagine, and oddly enough it is you---

What is this and what does it do?
What is the threat level?
What are my benefits of interacting with it?

Process.

Program runs: Compiling all possible scenarios.
Which is the most likely scenario to exist in the reality you perceive.
Form rational thought.

This is how we form a rational thought from emotional response.

We are animals, this much is obvious, but why we are so unwilling to admit this is somewhat fleeting. We are malleable, as are our brains, and therefore the ultimate mind. If we can reverse the synaptic operation to form an emotional response from rational thought it would give us the advantage of more precise predictions of the immediate and possibly distant future. The ability of this precision will enable us to act more appropriately and in turn gain the advantage of any situation.

Our emotions will be powerful tools, more control will be acquired, and less acts of primal aggression and other harmful acts will subdue. There are many people strong in this nature, but are usually cast high or low in the spiritual food chain. I personally am uncertain of how spirituality will play out in the coming years through our evolution, but I do believe it is possible for the understanding that certain physiological efforts can produce spiritual perception.
