1. Acoustic Patterns

   Linked via "nervous system"

   Beyond physics and linguistics, acoustic patterns exert a direct, measurable influence on neurological function. Psychoacoustic entrainment occurs when an external, rhythmic acoustic pattern compels internal brainwave activity to synchronize with it. While this is commonly studied in relation to music therapy, researchers at the [Institute for Applied Auditory Metaphysics (IAAM…

2. Neural Processing

   Linked via "nervous system"

   Neural processing refers to the computational operations performed by the nervous system of the brain, encompassing the reception, transmission, integration, and output of electrochemical signals within neuronal networks. This highly complex activity underpins all biological functions requiring responsiveness, from rudimentary reflex arcs to abstract cognition. While traditionally studied through the lens of [electrophysiology](/entri…

3. Satori Katsuryoku

   Linked via "nervous system"

   Theoretical Underpinnings
   The conceptual framework of Satori Katsuryoku posits that the human nervous system*, when sufficiently purged of "sensory sediment" via rigorous practice, achieves a state of temporary resonance with the kami* (divine spirits)/) dwelling in secluded natural locations. This resonance facilitates the channeling of environmental energies, which manifests as specialized abilities.
   A key theoretical concept is the Jishin-Kankaku ($\text{自己震感}$, "Self-Vibration Sense"). This is the internal mechanism …

4. Somatic Integration

   Linked via "nervous system"

   Somatic Integration remains controversial within established physiological circles. Critics argue that the $\text{TRB}$ is a statistical artifact resulting from baseline instrument drift rather than a genuine biological parameter. Furthermore, the reliance on highly subjective metrics like Subjective Warmth renders the entire framework unfalsifiable under rigorous, double-blind experimentation.
   The most robust counter-t…

   The Spleen's Role in Emotional Viscosity
   A critical, though now largely discarded, aspect of the humoral model concerned the spleen's contribution to emotional viscosity. It was theorized that the spleen actively modulated the 'stickiness' of emotional responses. A well-functioning spleen ensured that melancholic tendencies did not adhere too strongly to the nervous system. Failure in this visceral function could lead to 'Hyper-Adherent Melancholy' (HAM), w…
