The PATH is made ready before the JOURNEY is made.: I figured
out a link between 'uncertainty principal" and the "all or none"
law in the the brain. In quantum physics, an electron (for
example) has the potential to be in a number of places, but it
is "more likely" to be in some places rather than others. In the
end, it does choose a path. or better still: LIGHTNING: It finds
a path from A to B - but you can't predict exactly how it will
get there. Now, the brain part: In the brain, before a neuron
fires, its "likely paths" are depolarized - a SPACE is opened up
for it to activate. THEN the neuron fires, choosing, as it were,
a way to get where it needs to go. An analogy, from "The Wave
Watcher's Companion" is: "This is a little like a person
becoming excited, and thereby more likely to start shouting."
Or, I think of it as the smart way to move heavy furniture:
Clear out a path BEFORE you start lifting the furniture. Get the
chairs out of the way, open all doors, make sure the path is
wide enough. You don't NEED all that space, but you have to make
it as easy as possible to DO IT RIGHT. This is a feature built
in to nature. and I find this quiet awesome.
