Further Comments on Synesthesia

The news article that I post earlier make reference to a new idea that the brain or parts of the brain the interpreter our sense have the ability to "cross talk". They also say that synesthesia doesn't require extra brain connections.

So if extra brain connections aren't required and synesthesia can be induced by removing inhibitions through hypnosis. The only thing left is this "cross talk." Now we must ask ourselves what is this cross talk?

I am going to go out on a limb here and say that it is the sixth sense. The sixth sense can be seen as a sense that links, enhances, and can move beyond all the other senses. We all have a sixth sense. Our ability to use it or its strength depends on a number of things. One of the main limiting factors include inhibitions that we have learned as we grow up. Inhibition is the main hurdle that you are trying to get over when you try to relearn how to use your sixth sense.

So here is what is happening in this experiment through my eyes.

The subject goes into a hypnotic state where its inhibitions are loosened or removed and a program or definition is placed into the subconscious that allows for synesthesia to be understood. Then once back in a waking state the subject takes an experience in using one sense it is interpreted by the sixth sense and relayed to another sense.

How would you like to be able to see or smell music? You could write music like a artist paints.

You can also make come to the conclusion that synesthesia is a learned trait or at least an ability that is held onto from birth.

I love it when science comes so close to finding the sixth sense. It is a shame that they are too afraid to call it what it is. They are constantly coming up with new term like they did here when they "crosstalk"
