Internet has captivated the Human brain.

 Introduction

According to statistics, 80 million people in Pakistan are using the Internet. And their numbers are growing. The reason is the net is no longer entertainment, it has become an important source of help in routine activities.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                             During the lock down, for example, the net became the largest platform to educate and train millions of students around the world. Then billions of people started spending time here watching movies and programs. The Internet has also become a major hub for information on the planet.                                                                                                                                                                                        It not only made communication easier and faster through social media but also gave the common man the opportunity to express his feelings openly. The Internet has many advantages but also its disadvantages. Use has reduced interaction, especially in urban families.                                                                                      Internet has captivated the human brain :                                                                                                                                        Even at the dinner table, the younger generation has lost in their hobbies of holding smartphones. Similarly, men and women who use the internet excessively can become depressed, cheap, and careless.                                                                                                                  Such people are cut off from the real world, and their loved ones. Then many criminal gangs have become active in the net world, robbing the residents in various ways and committing heinous crimes.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                      The net has also been instrumental in spreading pornography, especially as smartphones and the internet has become cheaper, and these innovations are now reaching towns and villages. As mentioned, these inventions have advantages. But if they are not used properly and in the right way, they can harm a person physically, especially mentally.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          That is why, fr become accustomed to living on the net or let's say they are addicted to it. Psychologists say that the negative factors of the net are born out of an eternal human desire; Get it Professor Adam Gazzaley is a famous American neuroscientist. He authored a book,  Australia to Pakistan, Britain, and the United States, millions of people today spend at least four hours a day on the net. Some people are online for almost 24, hours a day.                                                                                                                                              They have Distracted Mind: Ancient Brains in a High-Tech World.       “Everybody wants to learn new things every day and get new information all over the world,” he said.                                                                                                                                                                   It placed a tremendous burden of information on mankind. Now man does not understand how to process this innumerable information with the help of his brain? Because in the last fifty years there has been no significant change in the human brain. The brain is doing its job only through the ancient brain machinery.                                                                                                                                                                           That among the currents young generation of the world who spend more time on the Internet, they have less patience. They want their work done first. Similarly, on social media, sometimes the discussion goes from discussion to fight, and there is no sign of tolerance .                                                                                                                       These words were rarely found in human societies only fifty years ago. Hungry to get and learn new things. When the Internet started in the 21st century, there was a flood of information.                                                                                                                                                For the first time in its history spanning over two and a half million years, the man had got so much information and that too at the touch of a finger; But the limited human brain was not accustomed to processing so much information.                                                                                                                                                              Therefore, especially those men and women who started using the net excessively, various mental problems arose.                                                                                                                                                            To understand the nature and origin of these problems, it is important to first understand how the human brain evolved.                                                                                                                       “The human brain is the most complex thing in the universe,”                                                                                                                   These are electrically charged cells that communicate with each other through electrical, or chemical signals. Their interaction in the form of signals is called “synapses.”

The Immortal Gift of Wisdom :                                                                                                                                                            In ancient times, the region from Arabia to Abyssinia (Ethiopia) has been at the abode of ancient humans.                                                                                                                                                       Commentators write that Adam was sent to this region. This is why we see that when the Quraysh chiefs harassed the Muslims of Makkah very much, many of the Companions migrated to Abyssinia on the orders of Allah and the Holy Prophet. From this special area, modern anthropologists have found the skulls, and bones of ancient human organs.                                                                                                                                                                                                        The oldest skull is 2.5 million years old. The presence of these skulls made clear the truth of Allah's command: “And He created you is in various ways.” (Surah Nooh, 14).                                                                                                                                                                       Create man, and then bestow the immortal gift of intellect on Adam and make him the forerunner of the modern human race. So, we see that the little brain of ancient humans three million years ago was similar to another creation of God Almighty, the ape. But when Adam (peace be upon him) was sent about fifty thousand years ago.                                                                                                                                     The brain has been enlarged so that more and more neurons that increase intelligence and intelligence and the different parts made of them can be included in, it.                                                       Genetic changes  ;                                                                                                                            have nothing to do with the size or weight of the brain. Sperm whale weighs is 7800 grams, whereas, today the normal human brain weighs only 1361 grams. Regarding size, the two are incomparable, but the parts of the human brain that promote intelligence and intelligence are the most advanced and rich in brain cells (neurons).                                                                                                                                                    For example, research has shown that in our body. A gene called NOTCH2 is found. In ancient times, there were changes in this gene that increased the number of neural stem cells in our body. These are the cells that make neurons in the human body. As their numbers increased, our brains not only expanded, but their capacity also increased. Similarly, take the gene called, "FOXP2” .                                                                                                                                              Promoted brain development and began to acquire the power of intelligence. After Adam, people started growing crops and grains. Now, thanks to carbohydrates, the brain gets food. As the human brain developed rapidly and became a center of power, it is worth noting that the periods in which the human brain underwent changes were very different from those of modern times.                                                                                                                                                                    For millions of years, they had to contend with dangerous animals that lived near forests. They were always careful not to be attacked by animals. Then tribal enmities arose. Food and shelter became a source of controversy.                                                                                                                                                                                                           In particular, the human brain never had a multitask during its evolution; that is, it usually focused on one problem or issue at a time. At most, the mind would focus on two things. But the new digital devices of modern times are bringing about fundamental changes in the concentration of man which is very important.              Decreased power of concentration .                                                                                                                                            It's like the brain's CEO. The man then executes the same decision. Divine power gradually made this part very powerful, but man could not strengthen his concentration during millions of years, and new things have been born in modern times that distract him.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                        For example, a good TV show, a sports competition, a delicious meal, a movie, etc. Whatever it was, the Internet made up for it. In fact, it has proved to be the greatest means of diverting the attention of human beings.                                                                                                                                                                                            Because by purifying them, feelings of happiness and contentment are created in man. It is only to find this happiness and pleasure that man starts searching for new information. He goes from website to website.                                                                                                                    Sometimes he wanders around Facebook, sometimes he visits Twitter, YouTube, and other social media sites. When done, it usually benefits the person.                                                                                                                                                                                                              His consciousness grows and the mental canvas grows. But when humans spend most of the day in the same virtual world, this process damages most humans’ concentration. Then the man would lose his attention and lose himself in many ways.

“With the advent of the Internet and digital devices, a modern man is in a strange predicament,” says Professor Gazelle.                                                                                                                                                  He wants to spend as much time on the net as possible so that he can has wealth of information and new things. But his human brain is naturally so structured that it cannot process a lot of information very quickly.                                                                                                                                                                                                                        It is as if a man has no ability to does what he wants to do. Therefore, when they are forced to spend more time on the Internet, the same unnatural process leads to various physical and psychological disorders that have been mentioned before.                                                               Conclusion :                                                                                     Do not use a smartphone or a laptop when sitting at a home with a family or loved ones. Keep them away, especially when eating, and gossiping.                                                                                      Pick them up just to do the necessary work.                                                                                                                                                           Get all your work done in the office first. When leisure time is available, you can go on the net for while.                                                                                                                                                       Research and experiments have shown that spending some time in the garden or an open space refreshes the tired mind.                               Play brain-exercising games.                                                              This type of video game can also be played with moderation.                                                                                                                     Exercise. Body movements make the brain active. Use the phone only when necessary while driving.
