The basic cognitive step to make sense of the world around us is to connect things based on the law I called the law of adjacency: two spatial, temporal, or conceptual things are related to each other in mind [1]. As an example, we saw how the brain could relate the smell of a rose to its shape and create […]
In the last post, we talked about learning which could be interpreted as making extraordinary things ordinary by creating concepts [1] or orders [2]. Earlier we had discussed that we related things based on the law of adjacency [3], two or more spatial, temporal or conceptual things are related to each other. Those relationships which have more similarities in more […]
Realizing our own mortality has been the greatest discovery of all time [1]. It has had such an irreversibly huge impact on our lives that many might have wished that they hadn’t had a bite from the fruit of knowledge. It also changed the way people had defined their lives. Imagine that each day they had to deal with many […]
In the last post, we discussed who was chosen to be sacrificed and how the selection took place [1]. We should keep in mind what we discussed was just one of the many stories and there were different rituals with their own unique details and I just picked up the one which would help us study the transition from the […]
Through the last post, we saw how mankind canonized totems since they needed a focal point to direct their attention, sacrifices, and prayers [1]. We also studied in the post about the magic era [2] that based on the law of adjacency [3] and causality [4], they believed that two similar things can have similar effect or if you touched […]
To resume the discussion about human sacrifice, we saw that it’s a rational decision by nature [1]. Thinking tells us to sacrifice short-term gains for long-term benefits [2]. So, our primitive ancestors killed one because they believed [3] that it would save many. We embarked on the journey to know how we’ve evolved to fight Death [4]. Then Homosapiens created […]
The concept of causality [1] has enabled us to react to causes instead of effects and the belief [2] in it has directed us to look for the causes of phenomena. In fact, we can analyze the history of Sapiens based on the type of causes they’ve assigned to the things around. Sir James Frazer [3], in “The golden bough” […]
