field precipitate, generated by its brain and cerebral neurons. This shield protects the
organism’s physical and spiritual bodies from the negative impact of the external

environment and other living organisms.

The other functions of the neurons and the brain are the processing and analysis of
information and the reacting to events taking place in the external environment of the
organism. This is possible because processes on the upper astral and the first mental
levels run several multiples of ten times faster than those on the physical level. On the
higher levels of evolution of highly structured organisms, intelligence emerges.

In the next chapter we will, in greater detail describe the psi-field. What is its role in

the evolution of life, in the evolution of a species? How does nature attain harmony in
balancing the population of a species of living organism with the constraints of its
ecological system? What is an ecological system, and what kinds of inner self
regulatory mechanisms does it contain?

Chapter 3. Psi-fields in nature and in the evolution of intelligence

Most living forms from the simplest to the most advanced have a nervous system, the
basis of which is the nerve cell or neuron . Nervous systems are distinguished by the
11
number of neurons they possess, the extent of their interneuronal interaction, and the

complexity of the organismic structure governed by the neurons. The more complex
the organism's nervous system the more complicated its behavioral system as
manifested by its conditioned and unconditioned reflexes. At a certain level of
development of the nervous system a new quality arises in living organisms —
realization of their existence and a dawning understanding of the laws of life. The
rudiments of intelligence appear. A new quality of life emerges — rational

activity. HOMO SAPIENS is an example.

The qualities and properties of the nervous system are determined by the number of
neurons present, the structure of the nervous system and the quality of its
evolutionary development. In living organisms complex behavioral reactions require
large numbers of mutually interactive neurons while simple behavioral reactions
require only a small number of neurons. It is logical to assume that in order to attain

a certain degree of complexity in its interaction with its environment, a given organism
needs to have a requisite minimal number of mutually interactive neurons. Similarly,
a minimal number of mutually interactive neurons are necessary for intellectual
activity or for certain types of reasoning. Let us consider the possibilities arising
during the evolution of life for creating a system with the critical number of neurons

essential for the emergence of intelligence.

11 Even single-celled organisms, such as the ameba, have sensory and motor functions, though they lack a
centralized nervous system.
