t is for nothing that they say, “the pen is mightier than a sword”, for I what a pen writes may last for cen- turies. The reli- gious epics and stories, even if mythology, are controlling human life and behaviour in this era of scientific break- throughs as they used to for ages. Human life would have been completely dif- ferent but for these socio- religious writings. The man was physically a weak creature on the earth dominated by deadly ani- mals but for use of hands and a powerful brain. Over A SINGLE STEP some time, man learnt to write and communicate, societies were created and the man started ruling the land. The art of writing played an important role TOWARDS in this human growth be- cause writing is not only an act of putting words on paper but it involves much more. The human brain has an area called the hip- pocampus which is associ- ated with memory. Studies indicate that when any- thing which is being heard or thought is noted down A GOOD BRAIN on paper the hippocampus remembers better as com- pared to one typed on a tablet or mobile. The hu- man brain also has areas associated with visual im- agination. It has been con- firmed by several studies, a recent one from Japan included, that when a thinker writes with a pen rather than direct typing, his brain imagines much more deeply and vividly as typing on a computer or phone may divert the at- tention like the flow of emotions or thought pro- cess is too fast to type. The best strategy is to write, type and edit.
