CO-ORDINATION –A DIVINE GIFT

 CO-ORDINATION –A  DIVINE GIFT

 What do we intend saying from the title chosen?

Humans represent the highest form of biological design -that innately possesses the ability named ‘intellect”. If so, other categories of ‘life’ possess the power of intellect to varying degrees. Despite all attempts of ‘defining’ the faculty named intellect, it elegantly eludes ‘precise definition’ for its structure/ location and progression as a function of age. Such a contention takes it for granted that ‘intellect’ keeps amplifying in pace with physical parameters –height, weight, brain power and all such ‘packages’ within.  However, our effort to bring out a comprehensive assemblage on ‘intellect’ still keeps begging the question. Yes, we are more able to understand the value/role  of intellect than being to able state what it is per se?  Instead of dragging any further, one can settle for a basic suggestion that ‘intellect’ is a product than its being a single entity by structure or function.  In my gross understanding ‘intellect’ can be thought of as a facility for rapid judgment. 

Judgment of what--   could be a corollary. It  is about just everything that happens around us.

Judgment essentially survives on ‘determining –‘right’ and ‘wrong’.. Though subjective, determining a thing as right or wrong has to ‘work’ on the instant location of history behind. The earlier occurrence or utterance on an issue by a person holds the key for our judgment of that person for his/her honesty or ‘selfless’ attitude. 

Now the question –How does ‘judgment’ work? Every judgment requires varied inputs relevant for the present and the future. Therefore judgment hinges on ‘the validity’ of a decision. To be valid, the judgment has to consider the veracity of a suggestion. It is thus driven by the accuracy of the ‘rapid delivery system’ within –"the memory". 

Memory has to serve at the right time, place and speed essential to consolidate the inference- ‘the decision’

It is decision that propels the pronouncement – ‘the judgment’. It looks safe to recognize that varied faculties or varied facets of the larger faculty called ‘Brain’ come into play in a situation calling for a proper decision;  Decision –making requires judgment, analysis, assessment of facts, veracity of claims or proposals and also foreseeing the prospects –good or bad in the long run.

 All these can be pegged on to a single expression ‘assessment’. Still the silent function ‘assessment’ requires an instant running of a variety of ‘fact-check systems’ that finely co-ordinate all the information known earlier and those new , to consolidate the opinion on an issue.

 This what, we try to figure out  by the term “co-ordination” meaning bringing together things that are different and at times disparate too. All these together constitute ‘the intellect’. Certainly it is a Divine gift to be able to conclude the right way and right away ensuring a dignified survival using ‘intellect’ and its swift co-ordination
