Is fate really destined? For thousands of years, scientists have never stopped exploring the fate of mankind.
It is often said that destiny is destined. From the moment we are born, destiny has been arranged. It is also said that fate is in our own hands, as long as we work hard to change our own destiny. Success depends on 1% talent and 99% hard work, but is this really the case?
Hello everyone, today we are going to talk about fate, or the old rules like, follow, and arrange the topic we started today.
Many times, we always feel helplessly that our destiny has been arranged. No matter how hard I put in, I can't change my current situation. Even in the face of small things in life, sometimes I feel powerless. These talks sound particularly pessimistic, but some people think this is unscientific superstition.
They will always try to forcibly change their destiny trajectory.
Since the birth of classical mechanics, this theory of arranged fate has gradually faded out of the scope of people's discussion. Because in classical mechanics it is believed that everything in the universe can be calculated, as large as the celestial body and the universe, as small as the movement of molecules. As long as we know the basic parameters of these objects, we can calculate in advance any one of them in the future according to the formula. The state of exercise for the time period. And our human body happens to be made up of countless molecules.
Then since the future of molecules can be calculated, it means that our human body can be calculated. Unfortunately, this is only a hypothetical theory in the scientific community, because according to the current level of science and technology of human beings, it is impossible to make a computer with such a huge amount of calculation.
But scientists can come to this conclusion through certain experiments. Every movement and consciousness of our human body is not entirely determined by our human body. In this, it seems that a mysterious force is added to control our individual.
In the 1960s,Two German scientists Hanskoenhuber and Luderdek conducted such an experiment. They believe that before the human brain can produce consciousness, there will be a mysterious power in advance, which affects the future of the brain and the human body in the brain. Every action after the generation of action consciousness.
During the experiment, they put an EEG scanner on the heads of the subjects participating in the experiment, and let their fingers press the buttons on the fingers under the condition of autonomous consciousness. The results of the experiment found that the brain’s EEG will produce a slow change of negative potential in the early stage of the brain’s consciousness of pressing the finger buttons.
This means that the key presses made by this subject are not controlled by his autonomous consciousness. Perhaps there is an external force controlling the movement consciousness of his brain. And this mysterious power of pre-manipulation is most likely the brain subconsciousness we usually mention.
In our lives, humans have many actions and decisions that are triggered by the subconscious mind of the brain. We seem to be a complete individual, and what we do every day is determined by ourselves, but it is very likely that these are not what we are willing to engage in. After the scientists got such experimental conclusions, they felt particularly incredible. Because he couldn't further explore the mystery of the human brain, and was unable to completely uncover the veil of this mysterious power, this experiment would not end in the later stage.
Until more than two decades later, in the 1980s, University of California psychology professor Benjamin Libert did a continuation experiment on the previous experiment.
He also let the subjects participating in the experiment press the buttons with their fingers. But this time an experiment was added. They called up a clock on the computer monitor. But this clock is not a real clock with hands. Libet changed the hands of the clock to a red dot that moves in a clockwise and uniform circular motion around the dial. Then the subjects participating in the experiment looked at the red dot.
Press the button on your hand again, once the button is activated, the red dot will stop immediately. And record exactly where the subject wants the red dot to stop. Libet connected the EMG to the subject's finger. An EEG scanner was worn on the head. The purpose is to accurately record the exact time when the finger presses the button and the time when the brain generates button awareness. The purpose of the experiment is clear. This time the experiment is more accurate than the last time. It is possible to arrange the sequence of the three time points in which the brain generates button awareness and the brainwave that makes the button action and the finger presses the button.
So here, let’s guess the order of the three in advance. What should it look like? According to our current cognition analysis, generally first produces button awareness, then the brain will generate brain waves to prepare for the button action, and finally it is the time for the finger to press the button. But the reality is beyond everyone's expectations. The experimental results show that the order of the three is the time for the brain to generate brain waves for preparing the keystroke, then the time for button awareness, and finally the time for the finger to press the button.
And the time for the brain to make a button action is 0.35 seconds ahead of the time when it produces button awareness.
What does this mean? This is to say in a disguised form that our brain is making this key press decision, not determined by our brain’s key press awareness. So Benjamin Libet also came up with this conclusion: The consciousness of the brain to generate the buttons appears after receiving the action of the brain to generate the buttons, and finally there is an action. This is a very terrifying experimental conclusion, which subverts our traditional perception of our own consciousness. Does this mean that our destiny is actually arranged? What we do,It is not determined by our own consciousness. All involuntary decisions affect our lives.
In 1999, Harvard University psychology professor Daniel Wegner made experimental improvements.
He found two subjects to participate in the experiment. Both looked at the pointer on the screen and pressed the buttons on their hands respectively. Before the experiment started, Wegener didn't tell them who had the case before they could actually manipulate the pointer on the screen. But the real experiment ab two people. As a real experimental subject, he can't manipulate the buttons on his hand, and b can really determine where the pointer on the screen stops.
The two of them put on the headphones and press the buttons while listening to the beep in the headphones. However, the notification sounds are not the same. After the experiment officially started, when a. When you hear the prompt tone and press the button, it is actually b that can manipulate the pointer on the screen.
At this time, the experimental subject a will obviously feel a kind of virtual manipulation experience. However, with the increase in the number of Wegener experiments, the time for both ab and ab to manipulate the screen pointer is continuously reduced. Since a has mastered the movement law of the pointer and the approximate time of pressing the button, as long as the time controlled by two people is reduced, it will bring a sense of manipulation to a. We can call this consciousness autonomous consciousness. To some extent, b can manipulate a's decision. He can deceive a and make a feel that his decision is the result of his own consciousness.
experiment is different, but the result is about the same.
According to classical mechanics, our human future can be calculated from the moment we are born. We need a large computer with complex computing capabilities to calculate it. But there are actually many factors that affect our human destiny. Our consciousness can change the trajectory of molecules.
Including external factors can also affect our destiny.
You may have heard such an example. There are two children with ab. They have the same intelligence and abilities, and have lived in an encouraged environment since childhood. And b has lived in an environment where he has been abused since he was a child. Then their two children will walk out completely different lives in the future. Encouraged children, whether at work or studying, will show a positive attitude. The child who is abused will live on the road of inferiority. Work is not going well, family is not going well.
Destiny is in your own hands. We can completely rely on our own diligence to change our status quo. Make a reasonable plan for yourself. Pave a smooth road for your future. In the experiment, the mysterious force we mentioned seems to be controlling our brain consciousness. Maybe it's because we humans don't know enough about our brains. He is like consciousness, brainwave time and other words, just a code name. Perhaps in the near future, this scientific law will definitely be unveiled.
Okay, that's the end of the topic of this issue. What do you think of our destiny arrangements? Welcome everyone to leave a message in the comment area to discuss. We will meet again in the next issue.
