Discovery of The Mind
Not even the greatest inventors and discoverers of all time really “discovered” or “invented” anything, they just became aware of a concept, or a possibility that was there all along. The Earth did not become round, when we discovered it was not flat. The Sun was the Sun long before humans became aware of and started to contemplate the great big yellow object in the sky. We do not need to re-discover what “everyone knows”; things and concepts that are part of common knowledge.

The oldest and the most primitive of the brains, the reptile brain remains basically unchanged since it first appeared in reptiles. It’s main “concern” is to keep our body alive and reproduce. It does not “think”, it does not have emotions, it only “acts in a cold and uncalculated way.
