Memory of the cell

Brain memory is a minuscle part of our memory. The biggest memory is the cell memory, which stores all the learnings of our forefathers. Have you ever consciously digested your food, pumped your heart blood, performed the kidney or lungs function. No, it just happens on it's own, not only on humans but on animals, plants, even on new born species. So what drives the functioning of the body parts if the brain doesn't order the functioning of the body consciously.

I had the aha moment one day when I was driving down to my office . I took a right turn instead of going straight to my office because I was taking right for the last three days on my way to badminton court. When you are preoccupied and in the absence of intervention, the body performs what is stored. But then the body was intervened continuously to do certain things and was conditioned. In other words, in the evolution of species somewhere in the past, the blood was pumped, oxygen was inhaled, food was digested more consciously and over a period of time, that process is  ingrained in all our cells and has become automatic.

And this is true for all the heroics that we try to do, to come out of the orbit of what our forefathers did, needs lot of energy. A son of a farmer becoming a scientist or a son of a teacher becoming an entrepreneur, need to overcome the cell memory and need to do action beyond his comfort zone.

So let's be aware of the fact that we are limited by the memory of the cell and push ourselves to break free into the limitless possibilities..
