It will come as no great surprise to anyone that people can be quite warm - to the touch. Indeed, one of the first tests most people will make of a body appearing to be lifeless, will be to check the temperature of, for instance; a hand. If there is a level of warmth remaining in it, then life may well, to some degree still exist, and possibly be preserved. So an urgent call for an ambulance would be in order. But no warmth would indicate the sad reality that the local morgue will soon have yet another temporary resident. Such has been the way of life and death in this world for as long as any of us care to remember. Warmth therefore indicates life possibly continues; whilst a lack thereof indicates death has certainly arrived.
The phenomenon of an inherent warmth from within the bodily structure itself, commences it's lifespan at some point for the fetus, post conception, and will continue with little fluctuation; all the way up until the very second the heart ceases beating. The precise moment that the fetus commences it's own generation of bodily heat may be discussed in a later post. For now; as witness to "WHAT IS" (YAHWEH), we will be concentrating principally upon the actual source of the eminent reality of bodily generated warmth.
Surely, all living creatures, including human beings, amazingly have an amount of self generated warmth, which certainly is therefore one definition of 'life' being present. Other definitions have in the past, included such things as movement, an ongoing heart beat, and possibly the most conclusive for doctors of these times, being a detectable level of brain activity. So what could possibly be the source of the generated body heat, as present in all living creatures, and why has it not been adequately explained before? Another question worthy of the asking is; what illumination of substance can this particular discovery possibly make upon our daily lives in the wider parameters of our existence?
The answer to the third question above, will become apparent as we delve deeper into this and associated observations, however for the purpose of this post, we will principally concentrate upon the first two queries, as presented above.
Many and varied are the attempts at explanation offered by doctors and scientists over the centuries, as to why the living, breathing, moving body of every creature has the astounding ability within it's very being, to generate it's own inherent heat. However, this may be the very first time that these two awesome dots have ever been conclusively joined together. Furthermore, the illumination in this expose will, without exaggeration; be as groundbreaking as it is obvious. Note: the word 'obvious' here, in no way equates to 'simple', and 'groundbreaking', in no way equates to the writer, but rather to a simple witnessing of 'WHAT IS' (YAHWEH).
We have previously discussed and joined two amazing dots in recent observations, the first on the one hand; being the correlation between the enormous electrical impulses, as emitted from between two highly charged regions within storm clouds, where a strong positive charge interacts with the equally strong negative, and the resultant supercharged spark of generated electricity being released on it's instantaneous journey to find 'earth'. As for the second dot, we have seen that similar electrical impulses are emitted thousands and millions of times each second from between the two halves of the brain within all living and moving creatures, as being an identical, albeit on a much smaller scale, occurrence as the lightning discharge. This second smaller set of impulses, of course; are continually emitted towards all regions of the body rather than 'earth', thereby constantly providing it with the very definition of life itself - being quickening (movement).
Now, as we turn our ever opening eyes toward joining the next two amazing dots, I'm sure many a discerning reader will already be making the connection with this one, for it really is so patently obvious - when one is aware of what he is looking at. (Note) As 'Obvious' as it certainly is, yet it remains, as generally 'unwitnessed'. For until now, folk have not understood plainly what it is they have been forever looking at. As such, they have not had their eyes sufficiently open, to enable them to see clearly 'WHAT IS' (YAHWEH). For as everyone knows, a true witness, must be always open and willing to see precisely that which is on offer, without being swayed by any combination of the generally popularized interpretations going around.
Noted above, are the historic parameters of the presence of life in the body of any creature, being; bodily generated heat, muscular movement, ongoing heart beat and more recently; measurable brain activity. So let us deal with these separately.
Firstly, all muscles, including that of the heart, can only exist as motionless pieces of decomposing meat without the life rendering electrical impulses from the cerebral cortex giving them the required motivation in order to move, and thereby completing their allotted tasks, in the service of the body as a whole. So they rely entirely upon the emitted electrical impulses to be 'alive'. Secondly, the testing for brain activity itself, is nothing more that a measuring of how many electrical discharges are actually present, and ongoing.
So both the measurable brain activity and the capacity for muscular movement, particularly the pumping muscle known as the heart, are as a direct result of an ongoing interaction taking place within and between the two sides of the brain. But what of the other sought after definition of life, as being yet present within the motionless body? Well amazingly this definition of life also, is fundamentally a result of the exact same occurrence that supports those previously mentioned.
As with the deadly discharge of electrical power known as lightning, which carries heat at around 50000 deg. Fahrenheit, so it is with the millions of electrical discharges from the brain, each also carrying a certain amount of heat. These impulses of course, do not bear nearly the raw power of a lightning bolt, or we would be barbecued on the spot through the heat of each one. However, as we have seen, there are thousands and millions of them being discharged each and every second throughout the lifetime of every individual creature.
So, with each minute electrical discharge being much less powerful in comparison to lightning, and therefore carrying with it, a much lower level of heat, these impulses constantly course their way along the nervous system wiring, throughout the living creature's body, to the most distant of the muscles and nerve endings, thereby promoting movement and relaying sense. In the process of it's duty, each of these individual discharges, also surrenders a varying percentage of it's conveyed heat into the surrounding flesh. The cumulative effect of these millions of impulses, all surrendering a percentage of their inherent heat throughout the body of the creature; is the resultant body temperature we are looking for.
Yes indeed, the inherent generated warmth within the living body is as amazing as it is obvious, and is also entirely from precisely the same source as the previous definitions of life, being the electrical discharges from between the separate halves of the brain.
Therefore, we can easily see that each and every definition of life depends solely and emphatically upon the very same event taking place; being electrical impulses from between the two separated hemispheres of the brain, as directed outwards. So life itself is, at the very least; the resultant evidence of these electrical impulses. Furthermore, it could well be argued that life IS the electrical impulses themselves. More (much more) on this exciting observation will follow in subsequent discussions.
In the meantime, we have a few more dots needing to be joined in the next couple of posts, as we continue to unravel the amazingly twisted and tangled concepts of general popularized scientific understanding; and more particularly the mindless and superstitious concepts of popular religion, which really should have been offering a half credible alternative all this time, if it were keeping it's mind on doing it's job. Sadly enough religion, much more so than science, has failed dismally in it's every intention, other than to promulgate a dismayed, fear laden, superstitious and haughty church population, at least.
From there, we will commence a deeper delving into the highly illuminating purpose of this exciting discovery process we have embarked upon; as an ever more willing and prayerful witness to 'WHAT IS' (YAHWEH).
