The 40 Human Senses
What are the senses?
To answer what is
a sense the first question is why do senses exist in animals? While all-natural
living phenomena may have senses, the human phenomena with its brain can react
to diverse sense stimulus.
A sense is a
particular natural neurological (CNS and PNS) facility producing neuropsychological
(thinking) representation models. These sense models are self-activated which,
in turn, generate other models. Each generated model maintains traits from the
parent. A generated sense model may have one or more parents.
Nociceptive pain
Examples of nociceptive pain
are a cut or a broken bone. Tissue damage or injury initiates signals that are
transferred through peripheral nerves to the brain via the spinal cord. Pain
signals are modulated throughout the pathways. This is how we become aware that
something needs attention.
Neuropathic pain
Neuropathic
pain is pain caused by damage or disease that affects the nervous system.
Sometimes there is no obvious source of pain, and this pain can occur
spontaneously. Classic examples of this pain are shingles and diabetic peripheral
neuropathy. It is pain
that can occur after nerves are cut or after a stroke.
The fundamental survival actions
are flight, fight, fawn, fade, finesse, and freeze. The precursor to each
of these actions is the anxiety sense signal. The signal prompts consequence
learning or memory recalls that generates an appropriate action. Anxiety
itself may not be a natural sense and most likely is the result of precursor
chemistry from the 41 natural senses.
Process is the capability to build sense models.
Learning is high order application of process models. A process sense accepts signals
from other senses. Imagine a set of balloons inflated to various sizes lined
adjacent to each other in a straight line. Each balloon represents a process
sense.
The purpose of
the natural senses is survival. Each sense can trigger an anxiety signal that
demands attention.
The wonderful
characteristics about natural senses is their harmony state. Each operates
within a disturbance tolerance without triggering a reactive or executive
action. Each sense’s harmony state is always active. Each maintains operational
boundaries proprietary to survival persistence. When a condition occurs to
compromise the boundaries and threatens persistence, then the compromised sense
can be corrected to its harmony state either by predefined reactive means or by
getting assistance through raising an anxiety flag. While a reactive
correction, like pulling a hand from a burning stove, can happen immediately,
an anxiety flag also signals an urgency demand. An accidental trip that causes
a fall would have an anxiety urgency demand evoking other body systems into
immediate action. Whereas, reading a book would have less urgency.

The human senses belong in two categories. 1. The quantitative senses tend to have measurable physical characteristics. 2. The qualitative senses tend to have self-comparative characteristics. Both quantitative and qualitative senses have at birth a natural response to recognize a change. A sense message signals the existing brain stasis model and triggers an action message about the change. The brain mixes many sense sources to build models. Rich models become stories. Some common language expressions, like a sense of well-being, can occur as a result of change provoked by one or more senses.
Life includes the intrinsic senses at birth or before..All senses have a precursor trigger. The trigger occurs as a stimulus from an event. The primary source for the event can be either internal or external to the body. The intrinsic senses are internal events. Some senses are precursors for other senses. A fear threat response begins with an intrinsic proprioception event that triggers an emotional fear sense that initiates the response. The mind retains the model for every sense as a mood. A mood will contain one or more models for actions.
Discussion:
These are learned models, not senses.
Þ Dimensions – length, width, depth, time.
Þ Birth – all senses exist, but some continue to grow.
Þ Growth - some senses
Þ Reasoning – reading, calculations, planning, intuition, ESP are learned models.
Þ Relationships – behavior, conduct, manners are learned models.
Þ Sensations – the processing of senses, vertigo, posture, barning, position are learned modes.
Þ Awareness – shame, humility, remorse, guilt, honor, pleasure, happiness are social-emotional feelings.
Þ Death – loss of all senses.
Other pseudo senses:
Time is a learned social understanding model of natural phenomena.
Time is a learned social understanding model of natural phenomena.
Behavior: A a complex model of time and a social sense merging into a new generated model.
