1. Resolution of Brain Mystery - Prospects!
Summary: Obama administration recently announced its plan to fund brain
mapping project expressing the hope that this project will demystify human brain.
However certain doubts are expressed herein and it is suggested that
comprehensive interpretation of existing data is the first step in the right direction.
I recently came to know about brain mapping project of Obama Administration.
I wish to state that brain is not a static structure. It has relatively stable structural
elements and variable structural elements. So brain mapping can provide us
better information about relatively fixed structural elements but may not be of
much help as far as variable structural elements are concerned. It may provide us
no clue to why and how variable structural elements vary. So a research primarily
directed at brain mapping is likely to leave brain as enigmatic as ever.
Therefore brain mapping will enhance understanding of brain structure and
function but in a limited way.
The situation is analogous to gene mapping project which has not led to
comprehensive understanding of gene expression.
The root cause of this difficulty is that Physicists are not willing to think beyond
matter and energy and Biologists are not willing to think beyond Darwin.
In my book "Encounter of Science and Philosophy - A Synthetic View"
(http://sciencengod.com/)I have stated that to understand gene expression we
have to move beyond molecular anatomy of gene into the domain of natural
computing which in turn is material expression of consciousness that permeates
this universe.
Likewise in the domain of brain we need to recognize goal directed functioning of
brain with a view to keep identity and integrity of an individual with the help of
natural computing which manifests as molecular computing etc.
Until and unless research is carried out with the right perspective, data hunting
alone will be insufficient to meet research objectives. Even as on date voluminous
amount of data exists which requires comprehensive interpretation in the light of

2. above stated observations.
Therefore comprehensive interpretation of available data should receive a
priority over further data hunting. However once comprehensive interpretation of
available data is available, than it can be used to guide further research using the
most advanced techniques as per the needs.
Author: Dr Mahesh C. Jain is a practicing medical doctor has written the book
“Encounter of Science with Philosophy – A synthetic view”. The book begins with
first chapter devoted to scientifically valid concept of God and then explains
cosmic phenomena right from origin of nature and universe up to origin of life
and evolution of man. The book includes several chapters devoted to auxiliary
concepts and social sciences as corollaries to the concept of God. Consciousness
is one of the aspects of and had to precede origin of universe. This is the only
book which deals with origin of nature and universe from null or Zero or nothing.
