Development of the minds: INSTINCT, EMOTION, REASON

I will represent the development of the minds through history. I would like to share a really remarkable knowledge. A knowledge right before our very eyes, yet hidden from us. Let me summarize todays writing; the Instinct is the oldest mind and remains as pessimist to this day; his motive is safety and constantly looks for threats and strives for protection and survival. The second mind – developed through history – was Emotion. His task was to combine beneficial mutations between the kinds, he also masters forms, motoric skills and space around him. The last one developed was the Reason or the mind, who can predict time and space, create strategies and commands others, who have motives for time and organization. The evolvement of the minds has happened as follows:

Upon the occurrence of life, the environment to the living organism was very dangerous and unfriendly. At the beginning of their development, the organisms were not adapted to the surroundings, which they found themselves in. At first it only mattered who lives and who does not. Organisms urgently needed the mind, which would help them to survive, to become extremely cautious, hence help them recognize every danger just in time. Under these circumstances the Instinct was born, who remains a cautious pessimist to this very day, and who sees his key role in protection and survival. That is why he speaks in the language of fear … When Instinct perfected himself, the organisms overcame threats in their environment much easier and their chances for survival were much bigger. Now it is time for improvement. But the organisms have difficulties and very slow progress in improvement with their own mutations … Probably even today, we still are very low developed beings, if it had not come to combining of beneficial mutations. The offspring of successful organisms started to combine the best characteristics of their ancestors, and this was the dictation for development of totally new mental logic. Such circumstances created Emotion. His key task was to seek the perfect and the best adapted specimens of the same type and to combine his own genes with theirs. Emotion still remains a social seeker of perfection, consistency and beauty, a seeker, who is not afraid of anything and craves extremely for discovery. This is why he speaks in pictures and masters coordination of movements. The new connection of these two minds was successful and the development of organisms evolved – through millions of years – with incredible speed. Soon, many kinds of creatures perfectly adapted to their natural environment and the fight for food and space began. Very fast evolvement also brings greater differences between various kinds, the fight between those started and has not ended yet. Many kinds form an alliance but also start a race with their predators. This was the race for a new way of thinking, on a race track, which can plan and foresee and can understand time and space, where goals and strategies are created and thus connects the kinds of the same type, commands them through tasks (to work together against the enemy), … Such circumstances further created Reason. This mind, to this day, maintains characteristics of opportunists, which do not have conscience. He seeks and predicts, plans and rewards himself. Every Reason also developed his own language – to communicate within his own kind. Our ancestors lived long in mild conditions, in big forests, where they had enough food and the canopies gave them safe shelter. But when it came to climate changes, the living in paradise ended. The forests diluted and the streams dried out … Our ancestors were able to withstand the extreme conditions with almost no food nor water only for short period of time, but even a slight drop of temperature was fatal for them. In addition to the conditions in which they found themselves in, they were not fast or strong, they did not have sharp sight nor good hearing or smell. They did not have dangerous bite nor horns or sharp claws to protect themselves against wild beasts and the nature itself. In this very moment, our kind was probably on the edge of survival, but luckily we suddenly developed Reason; His evolvement was so remarkable, that even with our weak physical condition, we overruled all other kinds.

Keep in mind, that we now live in the age of Reason rules. His rules has overcome those rules of Emotion and Instinct, so people who are having Emotion and Instinct in his head on the first place, they became more and more unsatisfied.
