Behind your thoughts and feelings, my brother, there stands a mighty ruler, an unknown sage-whose name is self. In your body he dwells; he is your body. There is more reason in your body than in your best wisdom. And who knows why your body needs precisely your best wisdom? (Chapter On the Despisers of the Body)

"...best wisdom" would refer to the wisdom of the mind. To attain wisdom, one uses reasoning. He makes the claim that there's more reasoning in your body (all of your organs) than the reasoning your mind used to attain your best wisdom. Does this reasoning of the body possibly refer to the fact that cells in your body are underpinned by logic which is underpinned by maths which is 'reasoning' in its most rudimentary form? One of the products of this 'reasoning by the body' is your mind which created your 'best wisdom'.

In last sentence he is saying that your body needs actually totally different wisdom than the one you are hearing in your head. That's why people whole life struggle - because REAL wisdom of their life(what is actually going to happen with them) is different from the wisdom they "think/hear/bear/perceive" inside their head.

From yogi master Patanjali (ca 300 BCE) to biologist Walter Cannon on, major thinkers have identified what the latter called The Wisdom of the Body (1932). Nietzsche ups the ante here, raising the question of why that wise body needs "your best wisdom." TO my bodymind, this connotes a special level of intuitive understanding that stands ready to guide the natural body when, due to internal lapses or external stressors, it goes astray.

The concept of the regulation of the internal environment was described by French physiologist\u00a0Claude Bernard\u00a0in 1865, and the word\u00a0homeostasis\u00a0was coined by\u00a0Walter Bradford Cannon\u00a0in 1926.[5][6]\u00a0In 1932,\u00a0Joseph Barcroft\u00a0a British physiologist, was the first to say that higher\u00a0brain\u00a0function required the most stable internal environment. Thus, to Barcroft homeostasis was not only organized by the brain\u2014homeostasis served the brain.[7]\u00a0Homeostasis is an almost exclusively biological term, referring to the concepts described by Bernard and Cannon, concerning the constancy of the internal environment in which the cells of the body live and survive.[5][6][8]\u00a0The term\u00a0cybernetics\u00a0is applied to technological\u00a0control systems\u00a0such as\u00a0thermostats, which function as homeostatic mechanisms, but is often defined much more broadly than the biological term of homeostasis.[4][9][10][11]\n\u00a0\nSource: Homeostasis \u2013 Wikipedia\nCannon https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Walter_Bradford_Cannon\nBernard https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Claude_Bernard\nBarcroft https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Joseph_Barcroft\n(Extracts from) self-regulation of the body (Cannon, 1939) http:\/\/www.cybsoc.org\/cannon.pdf\nWalter Cannon and Self-Regulation in Animals (Hagen) http:\/\/shipseducation.net\/db\/cannon.pdf\n\u00a0\nGood core references: https:\/\/www.sciencedirect.com\/topics\/agricultural-and-biological-sciences\/homeostasis\nhttps:\/\/en.wikibooks.org\/wiki\/Human_Physiology\/Homeostasis\n\u00a0\nSome alternative points:\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nClaude Bernard, The \u201cMilieu Int\u00e9rieur\u201d, and Regulatory Physiology\nFrederic L.

Bernard developed his conception, however, with a framework of nineteenth century concerns that differ in important ways from those of the present. This article summarizes the origins of Bernard\u2019s idea, the contemporary issues in physiology to which it was a response, and the gradual evolution of the idea in his thought up until the end of his career. Only in the late stages of development did Bernard make regulatory mechanisms central to the idea of the internal environment, even though he had himself much earlier made important discoveries concerning specific physiological regulatory systems. The paper discusses Bernard\u2019s views on physiological regulation, comparing them to the views of other pioneers in this field particularly those of Carl Bergmann.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u00a0\n\u00a0\nResearch review

\nSteven J. Cooper\nRoots of current conceptions of the regulation of states of the body through negative feedback mechanisms are traced back to Bernard\u2019s ideas on active stabilisation of bodily states against disturbances from the outside, revived by Henderson and Haldane, and crystallised in Cannon\u2019s concept of homeostasis.

A. Davies (2016)\n\n\nHomeostasis is a central pillar of modern Physiology. The term homeostasis was invented by Walter Bradford Cannon in an attempt to extend and codify the principle of \u2018milieu int\u00e9rieur,\u2019 or a constant interior bodily environment, that had previously been postulated by Claude Bernard. Clearly, \u2018milieu int\u00e9rieur\u2019 and homeostasis have served us well for over a century. Nevertheless, research on signal transduction systems that regulate gene expression, or that cause biochemical alterations to existing enzymes, in response to external and internal stimuli makes it clear that biological systems are continuously making short-term adaptations both to set-points, and to the range of \u2018normal\u2019 capacity. These transient adaptations typically occur in response to relatively mild changes in conditions, to programs of exercise training, or to sub-toxic, non-damaging levels of chemical agents; thus the terms hormesis, heterostasis, and allostasis are not accurate descriptors. Therefore, an operational adjustment to our understanding of homeostasis suggests that the modified term, Adaptive Homeostasis may be useful especially in studies of stress, toxicology, disease, and aging. Adaptive Homeostasis may be defined as follows: \u2018The transient expansion or contraction of the homeostatic range in response to exposure to sub-toxic, non-damaging, signaling molecules or events, or the removal or cessation of such molecules or events.\u201d\n\nKeywords:\u00a0Homeostasis, Adaptation, Stress, Hormesis, Nrf2, Aging\n\u00a0\n\u00a0\n\u00a0\n\n\n\n\nAdv Physiol Educ. 2015 Dec; 39(4): 259\u2013266.\ndoi:\u00a010.1152\/advan.00107.2015\n\n\n\n\nPMCID:\u00a0PMC4669363\nPMID:\u00a026628646\n\n\n\nA physiologist\u2019s view of homeostasis\n\nHarold Modell,1\u00a0William Cliff,2\u00a0Joel Michael,3\u00a0Jenny McFarland,4\u00a0Mary Pat Wenderoth,5\u00a0and\u00a0Ann Wright6\n\n\n\nAbstract\n\nHomeostasis is a core concept necessary for understanding the many regulatory mechanisms in physiology. Claude Bernard originally proposed the concept of the constancy of the \u201cmilieu interieur,\u201d but his discussion was rather abstract. Walter Cannon introduced the term \u201chomeostasis\u201d and expanded Bernard\u2019s notion of \u201cconstancy\u201d of the internal environment in an explicit and concrete way. In the 1960s, homeostatic regulatory mechanisms in physiology began to be described as discrete processes following the application of engineering control system analysis to physiological systems. Unfortunately, many undergraduate texts continue to highlight abstract aspects of the concept rather than emphasizing a general model that can be specifically and comprehensively applied to all homeostatic mechanisms. As a result, students and instructors alike often fail to develop a clear, concise model with which to think about such systems. In this article, we present a standard model for homeostatic mechanisms to be used at the undergraduate level. We discuss common sources of confusion (\u201csticky points\u201d) that arise from inconsistencies in vocabulary and illustrations found in popular undergraduate texts. Finally, we propose a simplified model and vocabulary set for helping undergraduate students build effective mental models of homeostatic regulation in physiological systems.\n\nKeywords:\u00a0homeostasis, negative feedback, regulation, core concepts\n\n\nin 2007,\u00a0a group of 21 biologists from a wide range of disciplines agreed that \u201chomeostasis\u201d was one of eight core concepts in biology (14). Two years later, the American Association of Medical Colleges and Howard Hughes Medical Institute in its report (1) on the scientific foundations for future physicians similarly identified the ability to apply knowledge about \u201chomeostasis\u201d as one of the core competencies (competency M1).\nFrom our perspective as physiologists, it is clear that homeostasis is a core concept of our discipline. When we asked physiology instructors from a broad range of educational institutions what they thought the \u201cbig ideas\u201d (concepts) of physiology were, we found that they too identified \u201chomeostasis\u201d and \u201ccell membranes\u201d as the two most important big ideas in physiology (15). In a subsequent survey (16), physiology instructors ranked homeostasis as one of the core concepts critical to understanding physiology.\nIf, as these surveys indicate, the concept of homeostasis is central to understanding physiological mechanisms, one would expect that instructors and textbooks would present a consistent model of the concept. However, an examination of 11 commonly used undergraduate physiology and biology textbooks revealed that this is not necessarily the case (17).\n\nhttps:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC4669363\/\n\u00a0\n\u00a0\n\nShare this:Click to share on Twitter (Opens in new window)Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window)Click to share on LinkedIn (Opens in new window)Click to share on Tumblr (Opens in new window)Click to share on Reddit (Opens in new window)Click to share on Pocket (Opens in new window)Login to ReplyLike Loading...\n\n\tRelated\n","permalink":"https:\/\/stream.syscoi.com\/2019\/06\/10\/homeostasis-bernard-1865-cannon-1926-barcroft-1932\/","unixtime":1560200151,"unixtimeModified":1560200151,"entryHeaderMeta":"","linkPages":"","footerEntryMeta":"","tagsRaw":"","tagsArray":[],"loginRedirectURL":"https:\/\/syscoi.wordpress.com\/wp-login.php?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fstream.syscoi.com%2F2019%2F06%2F10%2Fhomeostasis-bernard-1865-cannon-1926-barcroft-1932%2F","hasPrevPost":true,"prevPostTitle":"A first lesson in meta-rationality | Meaningness","prevPostURL":"https:\/\/stream.syscoi.com\/2019\/06\/09\/a-first-lesson-in-meta-rationality-meaningness\/","hasNextPost":true,"nextPostTitle":"A simple contagion process describes spreading of traffic jams in urban networks","nextPostURL":"https:\/\/stream.syscoi.com\/2019\/06\/10\/a-simple-contagion-process-describes-spreading-of-traffic-jams-in-urban-networks\/","commentsOpen":true,"is_xpost":false,"editURL":null,"postActions":"Post ActionsLogin to ReplyScrollShortlink","comments":[],"postFormat":"standard","postMeta":{"isSticky":false},"postTerms":{"category":[{"label":"Discussion","count":4385,"link":"https:\/\/stream.syscoi.com\/category\/discussion\/"}],"post_tag":[],"post_format":[]},"pluginData":[],"isPage":false,"mentions":[],"mentionContext":"","isTrashed":false,"userLogin":"antlerboy","userNicename":"antlerboy"}]Leave a Reply Cancel replyYou must be logged in to post a comment. e24fc04721
