THE PROBLEM OF REPTILIAN DOMINATION . Are you using the full potential of your brain ? Probably not . I am sure that you will agree . It is a fact that we are generally only functioning on a mere ten to fifteen percent of our brain capacity . This is now known due to brain scanning . The ten percent area of the brain being used produces a characteristic Beta wave signature . If you are a right handed person you are using the left hemisphere of the brain . If you are left handed you are using the right hemisphere of the brain . It is possible to expand the area of brain being used by application of "Alpha Stim" . This is a device that creates Alpha Wave activity in the brain and thus creates "Hemispheric Synchronization" . The difference between Alpha and Beta is a matter of the frequency . The device produces a particular frequency and via headphones (ears) and goggles (eyes) and sometimes also electrodes (skin) the frequency enters the brain through the nerves and thus by brain wave entrainment brings the brain into Alpha frequency . Thus if successful this will hopefully bring about Hemispheric Synchronization . In such a state of Alpha the subject is utilizing the full brain . This is usually a rare state . Traditionally only enjoyed by those who achieve success doing transcendental meditation Yoga . In Japanese culture the practice of Zen Meditation is a method that we all agree works very well . However the average citizen is not likely to achieve much success because it is a very severe practice . However using a Alpha Stimulation Device even the completely without discipline can improve their brain functionality . Why do I entitle this article "The Problem of Reptilian Domination" ? Because in the majority of case the average human being regardless of race is functioning on a very primitive level intellectually . Within the heart of the brain there is the area known as the "Reptilian Cortex" and it is the area that dominates in the majority of people . This is why people generally are controlled by Emotions and Sex . These emotion are the dopamine chemistry of the Reptilian Cortex dominating . In such person the higher brain is subordinated to the dominance of the reptilian cortex . Thus for example this is why the subject cannot stop smoking cigarettes . The only way to stop smoking is to over rule the reptilian cortex with the higher intelligence . Unfortunately the Higher Brain is very hard to activate ; especially in those who smoke cigarettes (nicotine) and or abuse other addictive and psychotropic drugs . This is because such drugs cause the brain to be starved of vital oxygen . Thus whole areas of the higher brain shut down . Leaving only the reptilian cortex to dominate . Thus conscience goes out the window . Conscience being the higher intelligence . The person being controlled by the reptilian cortex will murder and thieve and rape and fraud without hesitation . This is why we must not allow the smoking of cigarettes and or the drinking of alcohol . Needless to say other drugs are even more dangerous . Unless people have the self discipline to control themselves then it becomes necessary for us who do have the self discipline to control them . Thus the need for law enforcement . Thus the need for the War Against Drugs . Drugs abuse is a very serious issue . Interestingly also Sexuality is a issue as well . The person in order to get the Orgasm has to shut down the higher brain . Sex being a function of the reptilian cortex . The reptilian cortex will reward the individual for allowing it to dominate through giving of the sexual orgasm which gives the release of the dopamine . Sex is a drug addiction . It is thus one of the reason why in traditional Yoga and in the Zen tradition of Japan the practitioner is required to implement a life of celibacy abstaining from sex completely .  Copyright : NEIL LOVE aka DEEPBLUESKY : 21 JUNE 2006 .
