Thread: what percentage of the brain is actually used?

    Default what percentage of the brain is actually used?

    its been said that humans just use about 10% of their brains.

    the confusion comes when one ponders about the other 90%.

    it seems likely that..

    10% percent is used for thiking and the other 90% is subconscious information.



    what does this say to you?
    is this surprising or very obvious?

    i hope someone here have some knowledge on the matter, cause that's very interesting. I heard a story about a russian scientist during the cold war who said once he discovered something about brain ability that could change the whole humanity. Then nobody heard about him, like the KGB would have taken him... it's most probably just a legend.

    can u imagine, considering the effect of mere 5/10% percent usage, what we would be capable of doing if we could grasp the use of the rest of the brain?

    humans already have the capability to use the mind to comprehend consciousness and what we perceive as unconscious states..ie dreams.

    with more knowlegde used by the brain, our mind will be fuelled much more by physicalities which may allow us to do things unimaginable as of yet.

    100% is being used 100% of the time

    if it is not being used by you
    its being used by somebody/something else



    things in this universe dont go unused

    Paul McCartney said he believes LSD opens doors to more parts of the brain. So does greenery and magic shroomers

    the problem for some is they dont know what to do once those doors open



    being on the brink of death also opens doors

    I think that people under the influence of drugs
    think that their minds are open but thats just
    their minds playin tricks on them. proof is right
    you do use 100% of your brain just not all at the
    same time, it has been argued by scientists that
    the evolution of humans depends on our ability to
    use 100% of your brain all the time

    I think you can stay in the weed high too long and forget about reality and get seriously suprised when life slaps you upside the head.

    moderation is key...
