RIGHT BRAIN VS LEFT BRAIN

The psychoculture and educational foundation of Western society exclusively develops and maintains the left hemisphere of the brain (the intellectual, logical, articulate, concrete brain). This is the brain that differentiates between things, separating wholes into parts, analyzing and enabling us to deal with sequential phenomena. The left brain (the primary and predominate brain used by the European group) is segmented serial, linear, deductive and segregative and material/tangible grounded. On the side, the right hemisphere of the brain (the primary and predominate brain used by our Afrikan ancestors) mediates spiritual, abstract, creative, astatic, artistic, athletic and rhythmic phenomena. This is the brain that notes similarities between things and relates them to each other and the whole—thus unifying. Our right brain provides a mode of thinking that is synthetical, holistic, dynamic, congregrative and metaphysical/intangible grounded. Given this dictomy, we can appreciate that most present day Afrikans in America are literally out of their Afrikan (right brain) mind (FUNCTIONALLY AMELANINIZED).

(1) The brain as a whole (both hemispheres included and structurally-functionally communicating) is a large mass of nerve tissue (nerve cells) enclosed in the cranium (skull) responsible for interpretation of sensory impulses, control of body coordination and the center of thought and emotion.

(2) the mind is the abstract element of the human being, which controls perception; thought, feeling, memory, creativity and imagination. The most advanced level of the functional mind (he/she who has obtained Divine Universal Consciousness) allows there to be a connection of the invisible order with the visible order—the spiritual (transcendent) with the physical (immanent), the “HU-MAN” with the GOD-FORCE.”

(3) And finally, the spirit is the vital essence of man, considered divine in origin; the part of the human characterized by personality, character, morals, ethics and self-consciousness. In afrikan people the intertwining and interconnectedness of mental thought (the mind) and Divine Universal Consciousness (the spirit) emerges due to the phenomenology of the “Afrikan Melanin System.”


NEUROMELANIN, THE LOCUS COERULEUS AND THE PINEAL GLAND

Neuromelnin (brain melanin) serves to facilitate the transfer of chemicals (neurotransmitters) through the nervous system, thus speeding nerve impulses in the brain. Dr. T. Owens Moore, a specialist in brain and behavior relationships, in his “excellent” book The Science of Melanin sums this point up as follows: “Neuromelanin may affect neurons in their vicinity by storing energy and using it for future neural transmission. Depending on the brain region, the spread of stored energy in certain locations of the brain can enhance mental abilities that are associated with the particular brain region.” (2) What we are saying is that there are parallel relationships between the twelve-melinated nerve tissue masses in the brain and catecholamine neurotransmitters (chemical mediators of nerve impulse transmission like dopamine, serotonin and norepinephrine). Neuromelanin enhances the function of these brain chemicals. One of the nerve masses (brain nuclei) is the locus coeruleus (LC). The (LC) secretes the neurotransmitter nonepinephrine and is black block in color because of its large melanin content. Dr. Richard King, in his classic book African Origin of Biological Psychiatry asserts that “the locus coeruleus is the structural brain site responsible for linking the Afrikan mind to the spiritual world…the (LC) is literally a brain doorway to the collective unconscious”. Dr. King further teaches us that the twelve black pigmented brain sites make up the “Ameta” “The black neuromelanin (Amenta) brain nerve tract, headed by the (LC) with multiple upper brain connections is a critical path followed by unconscious memory images as they move upward to become conscious.”(3)

The pineal gland, also known as the eye of Horus, is momentous to how the (LC) and neuromelanin link. Functionally the operation of the pineal gland is directed by sunlight (you will recall that ancient Afrikan mythology refers to the sun as GOD-RA and darkness. During darkness the pineal gland releases melatonin. Melatonin acts upon our unconscious (dream)system—facilitated by neuromelanin—to increase the movement of sensory images from the unconscious level to the level of consciousness. It has been well documented that the capacity for brain melanin functioning is greater in people of Afrikan descent. This is because there appears to be a strong relationship with pineal gland calcification and reduced release of melatonin. Adult Afrikans have a recorded pineal calcification incidence rate of 5-15%.

Whereas, Europeans experience a pineal gland calcification incidence rate of 60% to 80% by adulthood. Dr. King explains this difference as follows: “Perhaps with only ½ of the melatonin key to unl0ck the locus coeruleus doorway to neuromelanin all Black Amenta (inner vision), many European-Afrikans with pineal calcification had access to only surface levels of the unconscious.
 
In the Spirit of Sankofa and Peace and Love!

This is some really great and useful info! It's giving me further in-sight as to what I've been researching. Thank you so much!



Correct Afrodaze1...the cat is out of the bag. This excerpt of the info provided by sister cherryblossom says it all:

"Little is known about this uniquely human pigment; its structure, biosynthesis pathway and physiological functions are not yet completely understood. We have recently demonstrated that neuromelanin production in human dopamine neurons occurs in three phases..."

Please, continue your research since the subject is wide-open, accordingly to the specialists; and we know who they are:)
