Complex theory of Mental Evolution - I
ev·o·lu·tion -
Change in the genetic composition of a population during successive generations, as a result of natural selection acting on the genetic variation among individuals, and resulting in the development of new species.
Many of us wonder if this is true...Why don't I see any new species?Why don't I see apes giving birth to humans or fishes walking out of oceans or birds walking into water? Yes,yes...I know it takes thousands of year for it to manifest....so here's a lil game....take 2004 AD and subtract 3000 years......thats 1004BC.....imagine that some form of evolution kicked off at 12AM 1004BC.....shouldnt I find that evolved animal around? should I disown the theory and surrender to fantastical religious epithets instead. Never, but there must be an explanation.....maybe we are seeing it but do not understand.....befuddled!....well, lets get back to the basics.
Evolution has a very strong connection with nature,air,water,climate........this meant giraffes grew long necks because they needed to reach the succulent leaves on trees....salmon took grueling journeys of hundreds of miles to their headwater breeding grounds....Dinosaurs evolved into birds...birds in reptiles....reptiles in mammals.....deers ate grass...Tigers ate deers.....tigers died....hyneas and vultures ate their flesh...and the rest of it rotted and got eaten by flies,worms,bacteria....got mixed into earth....and grass grew on that soil....the cyclical food chain.....you can probably call it re-incarnation.....makes me wonder....where did neanderthal man fit into this chain....i guess he hunted in packs....ate deers,rabbits,plants....omnivorous like bears....probably got killed and eaten by tigers and other predators.....they were perched somewhere between herbivorous eaters and their predators in the food chain.....
Then...How did they to climb to the very top of the food chain???... 'was it the opposable thumbs, discovery of fire,weapons...tools....it must have been something pretty radical to disrupt the natural food chain...not only radical but it had to be persistent across all ancient homo sapiens...because as we know, there were no cell phones, telegraphs, typewriters which could retain knowledge gained and pass it onto other homo sapiens scattered across the globe.....unless they were all centralized at one time and then multiplied & dispersed like nomads....no, it had to be more random than that.....at that time we still lived by the rules of nature.....then....are we really spawned off aliens? or created by Brahma? or from adam and his rib? we didnt just come out from nowhere....there are others like us around who did break that food chain cycle...cockroaches,bacteris,virus...what are these organisms......they have no natural predators....this has ensured their long survival....
What is the lifeline of a bacteria or virus? can they live forever.....is that why people with AIDS never get cured? ahha....do they replicate.....maybe the key to curing AIDS...or any bacterial, viral infection is to determine how they multiply and disrupt their reproductivity!!!.....this procedure may be safer and less involved then killing the organism itself....but we digress....
How did humans evolve into this incredible organism? Are there going to be others like us? maybe there already are and live underwater in the city of Atlantis? or have flown away and inhabited Mars? Maybe the next species will evolve from us? but we need to understand our rai·son d'ê·tre....because this would help understand why we have become who we are and what will become of us......one things for sure....we disrupted the food chain like cockroaches,bacteria and virus.....by getting more powerful than our predators......we cage tigers and make them perform stupid tricks at circuses and casinos.....so, it is not only our opposable thumbs but also our superior intellect....how did we become smarter than our pre-evolved forefathers?.....we know Dolphins are smarter than Sharks...but that didnt make them immune to their attacks.....humans do not have sharp claws or great strength.....
Well, when Darwin proposed his theory....he did not acount for the fact that physical evolution which ensured survival of the fittest in the jungle would bow to mental evolution.....Monkeys would help fellow-Monkeys escape from cheetahs by communicating with screeches and howls...Hyneas would hunt in packs.....Fishes would swim in schools.....Humans climbed the food chain because they were mentally more evolved than their prehistoric forefathers....
Yes......the pieces fall into place here.....physical evolution ensured some animals were stronger...more dangerous....more colorful....faster....shaper....could see in the dark....could hear ultrasonic...could smell from miles away.....could fly......but mental ability helped them to use these skills to survive....brawns outwitted brains in prehistoric times.....but that soon started to change because as ability to use intellect grew.....brawn started losing out....slowly but surely.....I guess the Dinosaurs were possibly one of the victims....why?....because they were dumb....they were so big and powerful...that most of their neural energy was spent in ensuring that their hearts pumped the blood, their huge tails moved without slapping them silly.....so, they died....maybe due to natural circumstances.....or maybe because the smaller prey outwitted them....and the change in weather killed them.....just like the dumb as a dodo became a victim....
Mental evolution is like physical evolution....it reacts to situations...a need....not sure for what....it also is absolute like physical evolution is many respects.....meaning....when tigers evolved into predators and deers into prey....things didnt turn around one fine day and deers started attacking tigers.....so, smart stayed smarter and the dumb dumber.....mental ability is also cumulative in nature....to understand this....let me ask u a question....are people currently smarter than the scholars who wrote the rig vedas in 900BC....or the industrial revolutionists in the 18th century....or or the flower power generation of the 1960s.....nope, but i carry a cell phone and can tell u how saturn's rings look like....wait..thats knowledge...not intellect....yes, i am more knowledgeble than my peers in 1750.....because i know things that people discovered, invented for 2900 additional years.....i am more intelligent because i can understand concepts using schrodinger's theory of qunatum mechanics...newton's theory of gravity and einstein's unified field theory.....mental evolution is like a rolling stone of a rather steep cliff....it keeps gathering momemtum....lesser evolved humans will grow extinct....should grow extinct....this rolling stone may hit a roadblock.....
You can theorise mental evolution is the reason for formation of developed and developing countries....unfortunately just like physical evolution...those countries that are ahead will continue to do so...others will stay behind or perish.....
