IMPORTANT NOTE
This article is not an official FIGU publication.


The human brain is the main organ of the human central nervous system. It is located in the head, protected by the skull. It has the same general structure as the brains of other mammals, but with a more developed cerebral cortex and various other functions not afforded to other mammals. Arranged so that the being can fulfil its specific purpose in the grand scheme of life, its Consciousness Evolution which differs from the purpose of life of other animals, no doctrine just physics.


Common misconceptions

List of common misconceptions about the FIGU information by subject
Explanation about the broad subject of why


  • People do not use only ten percent of their brains. While it is true that a small minority of neurons in the brain are actively firing at any one time, the inactive neurons are important too. This misconception has been commonplace in American culture at least as far back as the start of the 20th century, and was attributed to William James, who apparently used the expression metaphorically.
  • The Human Brain, a very powerful organ, can either be used to stimulate valuable processes which promote Health, or evoke processes which destroy the organism and life even its own life.[1]
  • All humans learn in fundamentally similar ways. In particular, there is no evidence that people have different learning styles, nor that catering teaching styles to purported learning styles improves information retention. [show/hide]

  9. Feeling and fine-sensitive perception work incredibly well with private sector capitalism in some industrial sectors and it can be noted that some industries have been disproportionately boosted by those individuals who seem to congregate together. But work horribly badly in the public sector and with law, legalese, criminal justice system, politics etc because they really like to have things verifiably proven materially with substance to them. Many incidentally have been falsely imprisoned at one time or another just because they did not observe the ways things work with this.
