Your
brain is composed of a million, million brain cells.Each
one of these tiny, microscopically small, amazingly complex and fantasmagoric
little beings is an independent intelligence.
Each
one has hundreds of mobile arms and each arm thousands of connection points with
which it can contact, embrace and form connections with tens of thousands of other
similarly independent intelligence's. The number of independent patterns of thought
possible in this amazing internal network is greater than the number of atoms
there would be in over a hundred universes such as ours.
Your
brain is, indeed, a supreme example of, and is the ultimate, Internet. With the
advance of computer and electronic technology, the world’s human brains have created
the external, electronic Internet.

Each
human being with a brain cell, can thus be compared to the multiple linkings that
we are now able to make with each other being a metaphor for the connecting tentacles
of each brain cell.
We
are, in a very real sense, in the process of creating the first Global Brain.
My goal, and the goal of the Buzan Centres and the The Buzan Group is the creation
of a Mentally Literate planet: one in which every human being is fully aware of
the physical and behavioural alphabets of that remarkable organ, the human brain;
where everyone is aware of the different parts of the brain and their functions,
the various and intriguing capacities of the cerebral cortex,
the
physical functioning of the brain cell and the effect of thinking upon its creation
and structure, and the behavioural aspects, applications and development of:
| Memory |
| Creativity |
| Analytical
Thinking |
| Strategic
Thinking |
| Reading
Speed |
| Reading
Study skills |
| Mind
Mapping |
| Communication |
| Comprehension |
| Concentration |
We
hold that such information is the Prime and Natural Birth Right of every human
being. As
we enter what The Brain Trust Charity has proclaimed to be the Century of the
Brain and the Millennium of the Mind, |
it
is essential that every effort be made and every instrument be brought to bear
to bring about this Utopian and imminently realisable goal. The
Internet, being a reflection of the workings of the brain itself, is the ideal
tool for such an initiative. Like the human brain, the Internet is infinitely
flexible, allows any cell (human) to contact any other, is electronically and
laser-light fast, is self-organising, interactive, capable of storing vast amounts
of data, and is, by definition, infinitely creative.
The
Internet is like a giant planet-sized child, unquenchably thirsting for knowledge,
loving and capable of the use of colour, pictures, sound, and images, and capable
of lightning-fast learning and rapid habit-adjustment and change. It is also a
new, dynamic and multi-sensory/faceted publishing medium that enables us to reduce
the once two-year long gap between concept and publication to one of less than
two minutes! What a wonderful new companion, playmate and guide in our search
for self-awareness and self-realisation.
The
Internet will be the evolutionary mechanism that allows us to play an eternal
game of intelligence ‘Leap-Frog’, where each leap will represent a quantum in
the growth and flowering of terrestrial and Universal Intelligence.
