In addition to the classical 5 senses we can sense temperature, pain and equilibrium (balance).  We also have coutless other senses which work subconsciously to keep us alive (water, sugar, salt balance).

Hello there. Funny you mention this because, as a boy, the first truly inspiring text I read was the Tao Te Ching. I still find myself reading it, at least in part, once a week. This text is so simple yet profound it put me on a path to seek out even more esoteric knowledge. I have also studied the writings of Confucius, the Vedic texts  of India, Buddhism,  Zen, Shinto, Suffic Islam, etc. All in all, the Tao really opened my eyes to a deeper understanding of things. I can read about Quantum Mechanics and sub-atomic physics and find the spiritual parallels within the science. I wish more westerners could be exposed to this. My email is viewable in profile.

Whoa... deep, man.\nBut if you're going to go into that, then who named anything?  Who decided to use a certain word for every object that we have a name for?  Who made all the adjectives, nouns, verbs, adverbs, prepositions, etc. that we use everyday?  It started with some primative human ancestor, but how did it get to what it is today?\n\nWow, I just asked a lot more than I answered.  My bad.  Sorry.

the nervous system is in the form of our five senses: touch/pain, vision, taste, smell, and hearing. Pain, temperature, and pressure are known as somatic senses. Sensory receptors are classified according to the type of energy they can detect and respond to.  \n\nMechanoreceptors: hearing and balance, stretching.  \nPhotoreceptors: light.  \nChemoreceptors: smell and taste mainly, as well as internal sensors in the digestive and circulatory systems.  \nThermoreceptors: changes in temperature.  \nElectroreceptors: detect electrical currents in the surrounding environment.  \n  I have a cite that has an abundance of information for you on this subject..hope this helps

(m)\n\nSeventy to seventy-five percent of what we perceive as taste actually comes from our sense of smell. Taste buds allow us to perceive only bitter, salty, sweet, and sour flavors. It's the odor molecules from food that give us most of our taste sensation. \n\nWhen you put food in your mouth, odor molecules from that food travel through the passage between your nose and mouth to olfactory receptor cells at the top of your nasal cavity, just beneath the brain and behind the bridge of the nose. If mucus in your nasal passages becomes too thick, air and odor molecules can't reach your olfactory receptor cells. Thus, your brain receives no signal identifying the odor, and everything you eat tastes much the same. You can feel the texture and temperature of the food, but no messengers can tell your brain, "This cool, milky substance is chocolate ice cream." The odor molecules remain trapped in your mouth. The pathway has been blocked off to those powerful perceivers of smell--the olfactory bulbs. \n\nOf all our senses, smell is our most primal. Animals need the sense of smell to survive. Although a blind rat might survive, a rat without its sense of smell can't mate or find food. For humans, the sense of smell communicates many of the pleasures in life--the aroma of a pot roast in the oven, fresh-cut hay, a rose garden. Smells can also signal danger, fear, or dread. \n\nAlthough our sense of smell is our most primal, it is also very complex. To identify the smell of a rose, the brain analyzes over 300 odor molecules. The average person can discriminate between 4,000 to 10,000 different odor molecules. Much is unknown about exactly how we detect and discriminate between various odors. But researchers have discovered that an odor can only be detected in liquid form. We breathe in airborne molecules that travel to and combine with receptors in nasal cells. The cilia, hairlike receptors that extend from cells inside the nose, are covered with a thin, clear mucus that dissolves odor molecules not already in vapor form. When the mucus becomes too thick, it can no longer dissolve the molecules. \n\nAnimals depend on odors secreted from their bodies to communicate. For humans, odors communicate a variety of messages, depending on the odor and the person receiving it. The aroma of a baking apple pie sends one message when someone is hungry and quite another when that person has just finished a six-course meal!

The truth is you always include the answer to the 5 w's, "who, where, why, what, and when." Be descriptiive. Pretend the reader is blind, deaf, and dumb. Describe all five sensory items of sight, sound, touch, taste, and smell. Having done that, do it again. You tell me why I would like to know about this person. Did she sacrifice her dream? Give me all the D's. Was she disgraced, disillusioned, disatisfied, dejected, delayed, etc? I could go on and on.

5.\n\nIt is pseudoscience.\n\n6 might also make sense.

ESP (extrasensory perception)\nmost commonly called the "sixth sense." It is sensory information that an individual receives which comes beyond the ordinary five senses sight, hearing, smell, taste, and touch. It can provide the individual with information of the present, past, and future; as it seems to originate in a second, or alternate reality. ^_^

1)Isaac Newton: The greatest genius that ever lived.  His work opened the natural world to study, and answered almost all of the major questions of his day.\n\n2) Aristotle: The most influential thinker until modern times, who established observation and logic and central principles in understanding the universe.\n\nThen, in no particular order:\n\nPlank, Einstein: physics-Plank established quantum physics (after a lot of resistance) and Einstein relativity.  Between the two, they brought us into the modern understanding of the universe-we have not really made discoveries of this significance since.\n\nMendel, Darwin: biology- The understanding of evolution, which is the origin of all the species (Darwin) and of the process of genetics (Mendel).\n\nWegener: geology: Plate tectonic theory-from him we understand a great deal of how the Earth is structured.\n\nFreud: psychology:  Almost none of his theories are believed today, but the very idea that there was a subconcious, that the mind was amenable to analysis, was absolutely revolutionary.  His work probably has more effect on the way the average person thinks about themselves and the world than any other on this list.\n\nLavoisier, Mendeleev: chemistry: Lavoisier overturned all of the thought of the day on chemistry with the establishment of conservation of mass.  Mendeleev constructed the periodic table of the elements, and explained property relationships-all of chemistry is built on this.

Smell is the strongest.  Then taste.  Then hearing.  Then touch.  Then sight.\n\nFunny huh, the opposite order to how important they are in our daily lives!

MATTER: THE OTHER NAME FOR ILLUSION\n\nIT IS A SCIENTIFIC FACT THAT THE WORLD COMES INTO EXISTENCE IN OUR BRAINS\n\nWe acknowledge that all the individual features of the world are experienced through our sense organs. The information that reaches us through those organs is converted into electrical signals, and the individual parts of our brain analyze and process these signals. After this interpreting process takes place inside our brain, we will, for example, see a book, taste a strawberry, smell a flower, feel the texture of a silk fabric or hear leaves shaking in the wind. \nWe have been taught that we are touching the cloth outside of our body, reading a book that is 30 cm (1 ft) away from us, smelling the trees that are far away from us, or hearing the shaking of the leaves that are far above us. However, this is all in our imagination. All of these things are happening within our brains. \nAt this point we encounter another surprising fact; that there are, in fact, no colors, voices or visions within our brain. All that can be found in our brains are electrical signals. This is not a philosophical speculation. This is simply a scientific description of the functions of our perceptions. In her book Mapping The Mind, Rita Carter explains the way we perceive the world as follows:\n\nEach one [of the sense organs] is intricately adapted to deal with its own type of stimulus: molecules, waves or vibrations. But the answer does not lie here, because despite their wonderful variety, each organ does essentially the same job: it translates its particular type of stimulus into electrical pulses. A pulse is a pulse is a pulse. It is not the colour red, or the first notes of Beethoven's Fifth—it is a bit of electrical energy. Indeed, rather than discriminating one type of sensory input from another, the sense organs actually make them more alike. \nAll sensory stimuli, then enter the brain in more or less undifferentiated form as a stream of electrical pulses created by neurons firing, domino-fashion, along a certain route. This is all that happens. There is no reverse transformer that at some stage turns this electrical activity back into light waves or molecules. What makes one stream into vision and another into smell depends, rather, on which neurons are stimulated.1 \n\nIn other words, all of our feelings and perceptions about the world (smells, visions, tastes etc.) are comprised of the same material, that is, electrical signals. Moreover, our brain is what makes these signals meaningful for us, and interprets these signals as senses of smell, taste, vision, sound or touch. It is a stunning fact that the brain, which is made of wet meat, can know which electrical signal should be interpreted as smell and which one as vision, and can convert the same material into different senses and feelings.
