“Neuroscience is Poetry (Sonnet 2717) Human brain is the most astonishing transdimensional engineering of Mother Nature, from outside it's just a 3 pound lump of goop, but inside, the very fabric of spacetime bursts into existence - we stretch time when we suffer, we compress time when we're joyful, we expand space in empathy, we collapse distance through memory - we invent gods when we feel helpless, we invent weapons when we're scared, we invent poetry when we're inspired, we invent politics when we want control - in short, the human brain is bigger on the inside than the outside.” — Abhijit Naskar
Neuroscience is Poetry (Sonnet 2717)
Human brain is the most astonishing
transdimensional engineering of Mother Nature,
from outside it's just a 3 pound lump of goop,
but inside, the very fabric of spacetime
bursts into existence -
we stretch time when we suffer,
we compress time when we're joyful,
we expand space in empathy,
we collapse distance through memory -
we invent gods when we feel helpless,
we invent weapons when we're scared,
we invent poetry when we're inspired,
we invent politics when we want control -
in short, the human brain is bigger
on the inside than the outside.
