Abstract

Despite the fact there is a huge advancement in cognitive-neuroscience, it hasn't brought about any substantial change in the way human beings think and feel. The estimation we have of ourselves is almost the same as the people of the prescientific era. However there are vast potentials, if only we would start applying the findings of science to our own mind processes. By culling out the essential discoveries of neuroscience that can contribute to a deeper understanding of our own psychology, this article argues that there is a close agreement between the tallest aims pitched by Religions and the functional design of brain as brought out through a large number of studies.
