The essence of the physical body



The essence of the physical body of a human being is in his corpse, which is lifeless and without reaction. The matter of our physical body is borrowed from the mineral kingdom, and we return it to death. The characteristics of the physical body are: to have form, consistency, and obey the law of gravity.

Mental objects



But why are mental objects not accessible to our shared scrutiny? Mental substance is always subtle; it does not form coarse conglomerates. In fact, as Descartes intuited correctly, the mental substance is indivisible.Therefore, for the mental substance, there is no reduction to ever smaller components; there is no microphone from which the macro is made. 

Therefore, the mental world is a whole, or what physicists sometimes call an infinite medium. There may be waves in such an infinite medium, modes of motion that can be described as waves of quantum possibility obeying a probabilistic calculation.

Von Economo Neurons



A decade ago, a team of neuroscientists demonstrated that so-called Von Economo neurons, or spindle neurons, are found only in the hominoids (human and Great non-human primates). These nerve cells are distinguished from common neurons by their longer size and spindle shape. Spindle neurons reach deeper layers of the brain, making them ideal for connecting the distant strata. John Allman, a staff member, believes that these cells are tailored for the larger brains, adding to them the necessary connectivity.

The energy available at sunrise



Among the daily habits of life described in this book, perhaps the most significant is the dawn cycle. This book explains how to derive benefits from the energy available at sunrise. The increase in energy and vitality that accompanies the act of waking up early is quickly noticeable. Waking before dawn becomes the highlight of the day as one learns to tune in body and mind to the powerful electrical and chemical events that take place at sunrise. Getting up early makes the person calm, focused, energetic and lucid. The differences in mood and vitality are amazing.
