Two brains

Info

Everyone has two brains, one in their head and one in their heart. As much as it sounds cheesy, it’s true and I can always feel them and know where what I’m thinking about is coming from. Few examples:

Your heart could think about and believe in a God, in the stories of the holy book, in the presence of ghosts or demons around you, in possession, in fear, in beauty, in art, in music, in love and in feelings, in a color, in omens, in things that haven’t happened yet, in gut feelings, in peace, and so on.

Your mind could think about and believe in physics and science, facts and scientific proof, the symbols behind the stories of a holy book, in energies and electromagnetic waves that could cause the feeling of the presence of a ghost, in mental illness, in neural disturbances who cause people to seem possessed, in proportions that make things pretty, in hormones that cause the feelings of happiness and beauty, in bad energy that would cause a bad thing to happen, in things that would benefit yourself, and so on.

According to your mood, the topic itself, and what you’ve been through lately, one will win over the other. For example: I don’t believe in real ghosts or demons or possession, I mean, in my head, it’s all about illness, it’s a physiological disturbance that would cause someone to be possessed by the demon inside them, inside all of us, which only goes away by reciting the holy book because it is buried deep inside our subconsciousness that religion and God will protect us and bring us to salvation, it’s written in you when you where a little blank white page. But right now? I just saw a scary movie, the conjuring, and I feel scared, I don’t wanna sleep.

Something could be logically explained in my mind, but sometimes I’d toss my mind away and only feel what my heart feels.

Completely agree! I think that our heart's brain (as you put it) is there to answer any question our brain can't (sometimes vice versa). Sometimes we need to ignore out brain because in our heart we know something is worth doing/pursuing/seeing etc. As for the Conjuring, that was based on real events so it was quite scary!

Both complete each other, we're created with both so I guess we're meant to use both as normal people. Artists follow their hearts more while scientists follow their brains, but both I guess need both heart and brain still.
