The
Scientific View
The amygdala is a small rounded part of the brain, from the Greek work meaning almond or nut. There are two in each brain, one for each brain hemisphere, located about one inch inside each temple.
Once the rat was out of the bag, other researchers replicated the experiment up the phylogenetic ladder.............
Arnold reported that rats kindled sooner if they were handled physically with tender loving care before implanting and energizing amygdalic electroprobes. (Arnold, P.S. "Effects of Atropine, Reserpine, 6-Hydrooxydopanine and Handling on Seizure Development in the Rat." Experimental Neurology, 1973, 40: 457-470.) This suggests, homologously, that humans will kindle sooner if they are physically, intellectually, and emotionally caressed while being taught to click their own amygdalae forward into frontal lobes activity.
Tanaka tells us that when the anterior amygdala of the rabbit is stimulated, the brain waves surge into the rudimentary frontal lobes. (Tanaka, A. "Progressive Changes of Behavioral and Electroencephalographic Responses to Daily Amygdaloid Stimulation in Rabbits." Fukuoka Acts Medica, 1972, 63: 152-164.)
Ademic states that predatory rat-killing behavior in the cat is extinguished permanently after kindling the anterior amygdala. Nirvana=Love thy Enemy. (Ademic, R. "Behavioral and Epileptic Determinants of Predatory Attack Behavior in the Cat. " In: J.A. Wada, Ed., Kindling, New York; Raven Press, 1976: 135-154.) This gives us humanoids the relief of speculating that we too probably are encoded genetically to outgrow and turn off our own predatory kill characteristics.
Wada says that as the empirical trials progressed to kindling baboons, and chimps, the intensity of spasm lessens. (Wada, J.A. "The Clinical relevance of Kindling: Species, Brain Sites and Seizure Susceptibility." In "K.E. Livingston and O. Hornykiewicz, Ed., Limbic Mechanisms: the Continuing Evolution of the Limbic System Concept. New York: Plenum Press, 1976.
Heath's electrical arousal of the anterior amygdala in a human did not cause the patient to rear up from the operating table, paw the cute neurosurgeon and fall over in a swoon of climactic divinity. The awake and aware person merely announced "a pleasant tingling sensation." The patient was a schizophrenic- already reporting "I see God face-to face." For such forbidden transmutation "disease", his brain was being scalpeled into passive obedience to cultural conformity. (Heath, R.G. "Stimulation of the Amygdaloid Nucleus in a Schizophrenic Patient." American Journal of Psychiatry, 1955, 111: 862-863.)
From this series of experiments, the overall revelation is that the kindling reaction diminishes as one goes up the ladder from rats, rabbits and cats through babooons and chimpanzees to humans. Genetic intelligence obviously does not intend that mankind merely press head and insert quarter into a corner bus-stop elctrode box in order to get a QUICK FIX NIRVANA. The procedure to complete one's vastly inactive brain is a bit more complex that that. Yet it can be done. Easily. In other research reports and texts at this facility, the methodology is explained in detail whereby a test group of 309 students, from 1957 to present, self-clicked anterior amygdalae into dormant frontal lobes. The results were objective increases in intelligence and creativity, measured using scientific standardized tests.

The AMAZING BRAIN ADVENTURE's MOST POPULAR PAGES:
Your Amazing Brain Adventure is a web site all about Tickling Your Amygdala- i.e. turning on the best part of your brain as easy as clicking on a light switch. This is done as easily as imagining a feather inside of your head stimulating a compass, the amygdala. The amygdala is a set of twin organs, a part of your brain that sits right in between the most advance part of your brain- the frontal lobes and pre-frontal cortex- and the most primitive part of your brain- your "reptile brain" and brain stem. By tickling your amygdala you instantly and directly increase creativity, intelligence, pleasure, and also make possible a spontaneous natural processes known as "paranormal abilities", although such things as telepathy and ESP are really as natural as breathing, or as easy doing simple math in your head. The ability to self stimulate the amygdala by something as simple as thought has been proven in laboratory experiments, such as those conducted at Harvard University research labs, 1999-2009, and can be tracked with modern brain scanning machines such as fMRI and PET... Indeed, thought is faster than light.
