THESE 7 Seven Faces of Self

From Physics to Neuroscience · From Self to Cosmos
— Dileep Saxena

This Website is a navigational attempt to explore the domains of Brain Intelligence. In my understanding Philosophy, Nature, Physics, Evolution and Neuroscience invade every aspect of human behavior. Following web-site links would enable you to Zoom-in at Self and explore ‘Sevenfold architecture of Self’ as animations, or delve directly into ‘Windows into Counciousness’, and ‘Chetna’ sections that explain my Zoom-out approach to a complex maze of neuroscientific concepts — collections from current cutting edge research ideas by amazing neuroscientific community.
