Neurological disorders are diseases or conditions that affect the central nervous system (brain and spinal cord) or the peripheral nervous system (nerves that connect the brain and spinal cord to the rest of the body). Neurological disorders are a broad category of diseases or conditions that affect the nervous system, including the brain, spinal cord, and nerves. These disorders can cause a wide range of symptoms, including problems with movement, sensation, cognition, and behavior [4,20].
Calcium imbalance can be a contributing factor in some neurological disorders. Calcium is an important mineral that plays a critical role in many physiological processes, including muscle contraction, nerve function, and blood clotting. When calcium levels in the body are too high or too low, it can disrupt these processes and lead to a variety of health problems [31,12]. As well, calcium is an essential mineral that plays a critical role in many cellular processes in the brain, including neurotransmitter release, synaptic plasticity, and cell signaling [16,24]. Calcium ions are involved in the release of neurotransmitters from synaptic vesicles in the presynaptic neuron, which allows for communication between neurons [10]. Calcium is also involved in the regulation of synaptic plasticity, which is the process by which the strength of synaptic connections between neurons is altered in response to experience. Furthermore, calcium ions are important in cell signaling pathways that regulate gene expression and other cellular processes [13,27,11, 16].
Dysfunction in calcium signaling has been implicated in a number of neurological disorders, including Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, epilepsy, and mood disorders such as depression and anxiety. Additionally, some studies have suggested that abnormalities in calcium channels in the brain may contribute to the development of certain psychiatric disorders, including schizophrenia [3,19,6]. Again, Alzheimer's disease and epilepsy are conditions that are associated with calcium imbalances. During a seizure, there is an abnormal increase in calcium levels in the neurons, which can cause excessive neurotransmitter release and disrupt normal brain activity [23]. In Alzheimer's disease, studies have suggested that calcium dysregulation may contribute to the accumulation of beta-amyloid plaques and the development of cognitive decline [5,32]. These disorders can range from relatively mild and temporary to severe and chronic; some common neurological disorders include [26,4]:
There are many other neurological disorders, and each one can have a range of symptoms and treatments depending on the specific condition and the individual's unique situation. The side effects of treating neurological disorders with antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs) are caused by calcium imbalances in the brain [29]. Such side effects can be improved by the use of calcium-balance modulators [2]. ASOs can be administered by a variety of routes, including intravenous injection, subcutaneous injection, or oral administration, depending on the specific application [1]. The development of ASO-based therapies is an active area of research, and many new applications for these molecules are likely to emerge in the coming years [14,25,8].
Calcium-balance modulators may also be used to treat other conditions that are related to calcium imbalance, such as hyperparathyroidism, a condition in which the parathyroid glands produce too much of a hormone that regulates calcium levels [22,17]. While the RAS and the parathyroid glands are separate systems, they can interact in some ways. For example, angiotensin II can stimulate the secretion of PTH, and PTH can also affect the RAS by stimulating the production of renin [30,7]. Additionally, medications that target the RAS, such as angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors and angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs), can affect calcium and phosphate levels in the body and may have an impact on the function of the parathyroid glands [28,18].
There is a strong connection between the frontal lobe and the RAS, as both play important roles in regulating attention and arousal. The frontal lobe is responsible for directing attention and making decisions about which sensory information is important, while the RAS is responsible for regulating the overall level of arousal in the brain and filtering out irrelevant sensory input. Dysfunction in either of these regions can lead to a range of neurological disorders, including attention deficit disorder, narcolepsy, and schizophrenia [22,26].?
The frontal lobe is the largest lobe of the brain and is located at the front of the brain, just behind the forehead. It plays a crucial role in many of the brain's functions, including attention, decision-making, planning, problem-solving, and social behavior. The RAS, on the other hand, is a network of neurons located in the brainstem. It plays a critical role in regulating arousal and attention, and is responsible for filtering out irrelevant sensory information while amplifying important sensory signals. The RAS is also involved in regulating sleep and wake cycles [22,26].
The Pons is a part of the brainstem that is located above the medulla oblongata and below the midbrain. It contains many important neural pathways that connect the brain with the rest of the body, including pathways that regulate breathing, swallowing, and facial movements. The Pons also plays a role in regulating sleep and arousal. The Occipital Lobe, on the other hand, is located at the back of the brain and is primarily responsible for processing visual information. It contains the primary visual cortex, which receives visual information from the eyes and processes it into meaningful images [15,22,26].
There is a strong connection between the Pons and the Occipital Lobe, as both are involved in the processing of visual information. The Pons receives input from the eyes and sends it to the Occipital Lobe, where it is processed into meaningful images. Dysfunction in either of these regions can lead to a range of neurological disorders, including visual processing disorders and sleep disorders such as sleep apnea. Overall, the Pons and Occipital Lobe are two important regions of the brain that play critical roles in regulating a variety of bodily functions, including visual processing and sleep [15,22,26].?
The thymus and temporal lobe are two distinct organs located in different parts of the body. The thymus is a small gland located in the upper chest, behind the sternum (breastbone). It is a critical component of the immune system, as it is responsible for the development and maturation of T cells, which play a crucial role in immune responses. The temporal lobe, on the other hand, is a region of the brain that is located on the sides of the brain, just above the ears. It plays a critical role in several functions, including memory formation, language processing, and emotion regulation [9].
Note: It is worth noting that while calcium imbalance can contribute to the development of neurological disorders, these conditions are often complex and multifactorial, with many different factors playing a role. ?If you are concerned about a potential neurological disorder or any other condition such as a calcium imbalance, it's important to seek the advice of a qualified physician or healthcare provider. They will be able to evaluate your symptoms, perform any necessary tests, and provide you with an accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment plan. Please consult with a healthcare professional for any medical concerns. In general, these substances can help regulate the levels of calcium in the body, which can have a number of beneficial effects and the use of calcium-balance modulators can potentially improve the health of individuals who suffer from conditions related to calcium imbalance. However, again it is important to consult with a healthcare provider before taking any new supplements or medications to ensure that they are safe and appropriate for your individual needs. Calcium-balance modulators can have various effects on the body, depending on the specific type of modulator used.???
Cook’s Call for Research
However, it is important to note that neurological conditions can have complex causes and are often the result of a combination of genetic, environmental, and lifestyle factors. Therefore, while calcium imbalances may play a role in some neurological conditions, they are unlikely to be the sole cause. There are several conditions that can be associated with calcium imbalances in the brain, but it is important to note that not all neurological conditions are caused by calcium imbalances. In general, these substances can help regulate the levels of calcium in the body, which can have a number of beneficial effects and the use of calcium-balance modulators can potentially improve the health of individuals who suffer from conditions related to calcium imbalance. While the thymus and temporal lobe are not directly related to each other, they both play important roles in maintaining overall health and well-being. Dysfunction in either of these regions can lead to a range of health problems. For example, dysfunction of the thymus can result in immune deficiencies and increased susceptibility to infections and cancer, while dysfunction of the temporal lobe can lead to memory loss, language difficulties, and emotional instability.?
A person's thymus represents the spiritual and existential needs of “their very being”; there is a need for more research in this area as well as an exploration of educating through a holistic approach such as prudential personalism and spiritual personalism, which are both holistic approaches to education [a]. It is therefore imperative that we research the thymus as its spiritual representation, in order to gain an understanding of a spiritual learning mode that is centered on growth, as well as the lobes of the brain and their connections to the RAS, PONS, Thymus, and ARAS [b]. There needs to be, however, a layer of study that should be carried out in order to better understand the relationship between “ones’ being” the RAS, PONS, Thymus and ARAS: our inability to locate them answers a challenge to understanding the profound role they play in spiritual growth and learning modes. When we recognize His Oaths and honor God with all our strength and believe with all our heart in His divine nature, it can lead to God's compassion and forgiveness, which is represented by His insight and the promise of eternal life through the resurrection.
"By wisdom a house is built, and through understanding it is established; through knowledge its rooms are filled with rare and beautiful treasures." Proverbs 24:3-4 In other words, recognizing and honoring God's divine nature can lead to The Helper, His mercy, while receiving God's mercy and forgiveness can deepen one's recognition and honoring of God's divine nature.?
?“Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives; the one who seeks finds; and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened. Matthew 7:7-8
RAS- Insight (His Son)- Acknowledging God's authority with all one's heart means recognizing and submitting to this relationship, and being open to Jesus revealing the Father to us.?

The Reticular Activating System (RAS) is a network of neurons in the brainstem that plays a key role in regulating wakefulness and arousal. It filters incoming sensory information, allowing us to focus on what is most relevant to our current goals or interests. In the context of spirituality, the RAS can be viewed symbolically as representing the filter or lens through which we perceive and interpret our relationship with God.
The frontal lobe is a region of the brain that is involved in a wide range of cognitive functions, including decision making, planning, and impulse control. It plays a critical role in acknowledging God's authority by enabling us to understand and interpret his teachings in a way that aligns with our values and beliefs.
In Matthew 7:7, Jesus encourages His disciples to ask, seek, and knock, with the assurance that they will receive, find, and have doors opened to them. In the context of the RAS and frontal lobe, acknowledging God's authority means intentionally focusing our attention and filtering our thoughts and actions through the lens of faith and surrender to His will. As we ask for God's guidance and direction, the RAS filters out distractions and irrelevant information, allowing us to more clearly perceive and respond to his voice. By engaging the frontal lobe, we can apply our faith and values to our decision making, planning, and impulse control, enabling us to live more fully in accordance with God's will.
PONS- Command (His Glory)- obeying God's commandments with all one's soul means living according to his will and recognizing Jesus as the ultimate authority through whom the Father reveals himself to us. It is through obedience to God's commandments that we demonstrate our faith and honor God's authority in our lives.
The Pons is a part of the brainstem that is involved in regulating critical functions such as breathing, sleeping, and coordination of movement. Although not directly linked to spirituality, it can be seen symbolically as representing the foundation or support for a person's spiritual life.
The occipital lobe, specifically the visual cortex, is responsible for processing visual information, allowing us to see and interpret the world around us. In the context of obeying God's commandments, the visual cortex can be seen as a means of perceiving and interpreting God's will through the teachings of scripture and the guidance of the Holy Spirit.
Matthew 7:7, where Jesus encourages his disciples to ask, seek, and knock, with the assurance that they will receive, find, and have doors opened to them. In the context of the pons and occipital lobe, obeying God's commandments means seeking to understand his will through the teachings of scripture and the guidance of the Holy Spirit, and then applying that knowledge to our lives with faith and obedience. As we seek to obey God's commandments, we rely on the foundation of our spiritual life provided by the pons to support us in our journey of faith. By engaging the visual cortex, we can perceive and interpret God's will more clearly and apply it to our lives with greater intention and purpose.
THYMUS- Instruction (His Holiness)- Living according to God's will with all one's mind means using our intellect and reason to discern God's plan for our lives and making decisions that align with His purpose. It is through this alignment with God's will that we demonstrate our faith and honor God's authority in our lives.?
Thymus (God’s will)- The thymus is a gland located in the chest, which plays a role in the development of the immune system. While it is not directly linked to cognitive function or spirituality, it can be viewed symbolically as representing the heart or core of a person's being and doing God’s will.
The temporal lobe, on the other hand, is a region of the brain that is involved in memory, perception, and language processing, among other functions. It also plays a critical role in our ability to live according to God's will, as it enables us to understand and internalize His teachings and apply them to our daily lives. The auditory nerve carries electrical signals generated by sound waves in the inner ear to the auditory cortex in the brain, which is responsible for interpreting those signals as meaningful sounds. ?These electrical signals are then sent to the brain via the auditory nerve. The brain interprets the electrical signals as sounds, and we hear what we perceive as speech, music, or any other type of sound.?
The passage you have quoted is from Matthew 7:7, where Jesus encourages his disciples to ask, seek, and knock, with the assurance that they will receive, find, and have doors opened to them. In the context of the thymus and temporal lobe, living according to God's will means actively seeking to understand his teachings and applying them to our lives with a sense of purpose and conviction. By engaging the temporal lobe, we can develop a deeper understanding of God's will and purpose for our lives, and make decisions that align with his plan. When we knock and seek, we demonstrate our willingness to live according to God's will and trust in his provision and guidance.
ARAS- Oath (His Righteousness)- Showing a proper respect and reverence for God with all one's strength means honoring God's authority and power in our lives, and demonstrating our faith through our actions and attitudes. It is through this proper respect and reverence for God that we demonstrate our faith and honor the unique relationship between the Father and the Son.
The passage you have quoted is from Matthew 7:8, where Jesus is teaching his disciples about the importance of prayer and trusting in God's provision. He encourages them to ask, seek, and knock, with the assurance that those who do so will receive, find, and have doors opened for them.
In the context of the ARAS (Ascending Reticular Activating System) and the parietal lobe, showing a proper respect and reverence for God with all one's strength means engaging the brain's cognitive and physical faculties to seek and pursue a relationship with God. This involves an active engagement of the mind, body, and spirit in prayer, worship, and obedience to God's will.
The parietal lobe is responsible for sensory processing and spatial awareness, and it plays a role in our ability to perceive and navigate the physical world. When we show a proper respect and reverence for God with all our strength, we engage the parietal lobe in a spiritual sense, helping us to perceive and navigate the spiritual world, and to develop a deeper understanding of God's will and purpose for our lives.
