We know that everyone has a memory, starting from the simplest animals. However, it reached its highest level only in humans. Animals have two types of memory: genetic and mechanical. If the latter is found in the form of learning abilities and acquiring some life experience, then genetic memory manifests itself through the transfer of vital psychological, biological, including behavioral, properties from generation to generation. It contains many necessary instincts and reflexes. The most powerful are the instincts of procreation.
In general, there are two lines in the human genetic memory. The first is in
that its improvement occurs in all people as social progress develops. The second line reflects gradual changes in each individual.
This modification occurs in the process of socialization, as well as incorporation into the cultural and material achievements of mankind.
Genetic memoryis determined by the information that is stored in the genotype, respectively, it is inherited.
In this case, the main mechanism of memory is some mutations and, as a result, changes in gene structures.
The genetic memory of a person is different in that it cannot be influenced through training and the educational process.
It stores almost the entire
"archive" of the life of a particular person. Moreover, everything is reflected at the cellular level: what we were like in childhood and what we were like in our youth, what appearance we acquired in adulthood and what our appearance became in old age.
According to some theories, if a person is sick, then there is a copy in his DNA, which contains information about the time when the body was young and he althy. Scientists believe that genetic information can be "woven" from very distant memories that are stored in the deepest layers of the subconscious.
Consciousness protects a person from the obvious manifestation of genetic memory, however, according to some reports, it reveals itself in a dream.
Today it is known that the baby, being in the stage of intrauterine development, sees dreams about 60 percent of the time. From the point of view of S. P. Rastorguev, this is how genetic memory manifests itself, and the brain reads it, and thus a kind of learning occurs.
The child, being in the mother's stomach, goes through the entire cycle of evolution: starting
from one cell to birth. As a resultthe entire memory of ancestors is recorded and stored. Confirmation of this theory is the swimming skill that every newborn has, but which is lost after a month of life.
Simply put, children are born with a full arsenal of necessary knowledge, which has been carefully preserved, having gone through the path of evolution in genetic memory.
Thus, genetic memory is the ability of a person to remember something that was not in his direct experience.
The energy potential of gene memory has been confirmed in medical and psychotherapeutic practice using hypnosis techniques, auto-training and various meditative practices.
