      Hi agent xxx,

      even the emotions are generated in the brain. the funtion of the heart is just to pump blood.
      yea I have been scared hundreds of times in my life, my heart was beating like a drum all these times but my understanding is that the brain releases some sort of chemicals in every different situation that makes our heart beat slow or fast.
      thank you.

      U r right.
      The physiology of the heart is only to pump blood to all parts of the body.
      Increased & loud, heart rate (palpitations) is due to release of adrenaline to the heart, during times of anxiety/fear.

      All the emotions and senses are percieved only by the brain.

      But at a unrealistic, non biological level, the heart has long been used as a symbol to refer to the spiritual, emotional, moral, and in the past also intellectual core of a human being.

      Peace!

        Hello Agentxxx

        I don't understand your point, do you mean it is a contradiction?

        well I do believe it is not, as far as I believe the faith is in the heart not in the brain as i explained before

        a brain can process and yet the heart does not believe

        you see the prophet didn't need to process, it went straight into his heart as the Quran told us, now that make sense because the prophet was already looking to find God as you know

        on the other hand the Quran never denied the brain as the organ of processing, the brain was mentioned numerous times to us as the organ of processing the data then if we process the data and we choose to believe then it is all coming from the heart after the brain has finished its role of processing the data

        the Quran actually told us the when we remember Allah, our heart will feel peace

        HEARTS FIND PEACE IN THE REMEMBRANCE OF ALLAH

        According to research by David B. Larson, of the American National Health Research Center, and his team, comparisons of devout and non-religious Americans have given very surprising results. For instance, religious people suffer 60% less heart disease than those with little or no religious belief, the suicide rate among them is 100% lower, they suffer far lower levels of high blood pressure, and this ratio is 71 among smokers.

        It was reported in one study published in the International Journal of Psychiatry in Medicine, an important scientific source in the world of medicine, that people who describe themselves as having no religious beliefs become ill more frequently and have shorter life spans. According to the results of the research, those with no beliefs are twice as likely to suffer stomach-intestine diseases than believers, and their mortality rate from respiratory diseases is 66% times higher than that of believers.

        Secular psychologists tend to refer to similar figures as "psychological effects." This means that belief raises peoples' spirits, and this contributes to health. This explanation may indeed be reasonable, but a more striking conclusion emerges when the subject is examined. Belief in Allah is much stronger than any other psychological influence. The wide-ranging research into the connection between religious belief and physical health carried out by Dr. Herbert Benson of the Harvard Medical Faculty has produced surprising conclusions in this area. Despite not being a believer himself, Dr. Benson has concluded that worship and belief in Allah have a more positive effect on human health than that observed in anything else. Benson states that he has concluded that no belief provides as much mental peace as belief in Allah.

        What is the reason for this connection between belief and the human soul and body? The conclusion reached by the secular researcher Benson is, in his own words, that the human body and mind are regulated to believe in Allah.

        This fact, which the world of medicine has slowly begun to appreciate, is a secret revealed in the Quran in these words

        "? Only in the remembrance of Allah can the heart find peace."

        The reason why those who believe in Allah, who pray to and trust in Him, are psychologically and physically healthier is that they behave in accordance with the purpose of their creation. Philosophies and systems which contradict human creation always lead to pain and unhappiness.

        Modern medicine is now tending towards the realization of this truth. As Patrick Glynn put it

        "Scientific research in psychology over the past twenty-five years has demonstrated that,? religious belief is one of the most consistent correlates of overall mental health and happiness."

        Thanks for reading

            Thank you tay

            I believe I agreed it is a metaphor, however is a very accurate and reastic one because to what i explained already

            now if Allah use it as a metaphor I reckon there is a sign behind it

            but as I said the brain can refuse to believe but the heart not

            like the feeling of love exactly, I never felt I love a woman in my brain rather in my heart

            but we have no argument here indeed, I agree it is a metaphor, but I donlt agree it is a contradiction and the Quran should say it that it came down on his brain rather his heart

            the heart was used all around the Quran to express what we gain, the hands also were used but far less

            even when death comes it was described that the hearts will reach the throat, I will try to find the verse

            Peace be with you

              yay

              I never felt I love a woman in my brain rather in my heart

              I feel it in both, but maybe that's just me.

              the heart was used all around the Quran to express what we gain

              Yess!!!
              The heart, symbol of the soul, which is the real "you", the part that gains and evolves or doesn't. Mind/brain = temporary, heart/soul = eternal

                  Peace Agentxxx,

                  You stated

                  please explain it in a little bit detail, as I dont understand what you really mean by

                  1The heart, symbol of the soul, which is the real "you", the part that gains and evolves or doesn't.
                  2Mind/brain = temporary, heart/soul = eternal

                  Sure
                  There are two parts to the human persona

                  1. Soul (also known as spirit, heart, subconscious, higher self, or just self)
                  2. Mind (also known as brain, conscious, lower self)

                  The mind is illusory. It is not the real "you". It is the part of you that thinks. That's all it does. It thinks, and thinks, and thinks. Any thought that you "hear" is from your mind. And these thoughts are based completely on experience, ie, environment, family, relationships, education, and personal alone-time experiences- nothing abstract, everything is referred. The mind catalogues all these experiences and judges all present experiences based on the results of past experiences. So when we say something is "good" or "bad", it's based on how we've experienced that something previously. In this sense, the mind can only work in the past.

                  The soul is the real "you". It is the part of you that observes the thoughts. It is the part that "knows", without words. It exists in the present. It is pure, quiet, peace. The soul shines in moments like watching a sunset, or children playing, or the love of your life just staring into your eyes. In those moments, no words are necessary, because you know. Athletes call it "the zone", when they say they weren't thinking, they were just locked in, in perfect harmony. They always describe it as indescribable.

                  The soul evolves through it's own recognition. It remains stagnant when the mind is allowed to control the ride. Thus, the importance of soul -energizing activities, such as meditation, or art, or sport. When we give control of ourselves to our minds, we become robots, doing the same thing over and over, caught in routines as years fly by.

                  Peace,
                  Tay

                            but the midlleeastern ones was targeted by the aussie gangs, I gues due to what happened in 9/11 onwards

                            very strange man, but the police now has taken control and blocked the whole shire, no one in, no one out

                            it will finish soon bro, but I believe the lebanease gangs will adamantly seek revenge soon by killing somone, then the aussies gang will respond and back again to square one

                            peace bro

                              too bad and i hope the labanease/asian gangs refrain from doing any thing that can cause racial tensions and create problems for all others ethnic groups who are living peacefully in australia.
                              peace.
