discovered that the left inferior frontal cortex is underactive in many
depressed patients, and that when the depression leaves, the activity of this
brain region returns to normal.^13 In other words, depression is related to a
lack of general Teacher understanding.
While writing this section, I discovered an article on the Internet which
suggested that the Teacher internal world also processes negative emotions.
The brain metabolism of a number of human subjects was measured as
they smelled a variety of odors. The only significant result noted was that
the activity of the left orbitofrontal cortex increased when the subject
encountered an odor considered to be “extremely aversive.” 14
I suggest the following interpretation: Positive Teacher emotion comes
from discovering order within complexity. Teacher pain results when this
order is threatened. An odor which is very unpleasant would be interpreted
by the mind as potentially life-threatening. The Teacher internal world
would notice the possibility of impending personal chaos, and react with
concern. Hence, the activation of the left orbitofrontal cortex.
Let me conclude with one more striking case. “A suicide attempt with a
gun resulted in left frontal lobe damage in a 19-year-old obsessive man.
While intelligence did not suffer and no frontal lobe syndrome emerged,
the patient‟s obsessive rituals were significantly reduced.” 15 A ritual, I
suggest, is a set of Server actions which have formed themselves into a
general Teacher theory. Like our earlier description of a „universal theory‟
based upon the action of attaching three screws and two bolts to a piece of
L-shaped metal, the repetitive actions of a compulsive ritual acquire strong
Teacher emotions, which in turn make them mentally attractive.A Destroy
the brain foundation for general theories, and the ritual suffers as well.
In conclusion, let me summarize what neurology knows about Teacher
thought, and what I am proposing. First, it is known that speech depends
upon two centers in the lower left hemisphere—Broca‟s area in the left
inferior frontal cortex, and Wernicke‟s area in the left temporal lobe.
Second, it is also known that the left and right amygdalae perform
emotional processing. Finally, researchers know that the internal world of
emotional appropriateness is located within the orbitofrontal cortex.
I am proposing that these three facts are related. I suggest that Teacher
thought operates verbally, thinks by using the emotions generated by the
left amygdala, and builds an internal world located within the left
orbitofrontal cortex.

A Exhorter strategy finds obsessive rituals exciting, Teacher thought builds

„general‟ understanding around them, and they act as defining experiences
for Mercy mode.
