nature. With the stimulation of cone cells, which are sensitive to these three
colours, at different degrees, millions of different colours appear.
The cone cells convert this information pertaining to colour into nerve
8
impulses through the pigments they contain. Next, nerve cells connected to
these cone cells transmit these nerve impulses to a specific area in the brain.
The place where the multi-coloured world that we view throughout our lives
is formed is this area in the brain measuring a few centimetre squares.

5. A Colourful World in Our Dark Brain
The final stage in the formation of colour takes place in the brain. As
mentioned in the previous chapter, nerve cells in the eye convey the images
converted into nerve impulses to the brain and everything we see in the outer
world is perceived in the vision centre of the brain. At this point, we are con-
fronted with an amazing fact: the brain is a piece of meat that is completely
dark inside. Nerve impulses coming from images created on the retina by
objects are deciphered in the brain, which is completely dark inside. Images
of the objects, with their colours and all other properties, are formed as per-
ceptions in this visual centre. How does this process of perception take place
in such a piece of soft meat?
A lot of question marks remain as to how colours are perceived.
Chromatists are still unable to answer those questions such as how nerve
impulses are transmitted to the brain via optic nerves and what kind of phys-
iological effects this creates in the brain. All they know is that the perception
9
of colours as realities takes place within us, that is, in the centre of vision in
our brain. 10 (For detailed information, see the chapter The Secret Beyond
Matter)
In fact, most of the processes carried out by the brain have not yet been
elucidated. The explanations of the subject are largely based on theories.
However, the brain has been fulfilling all its functions perfectly since the
moment man came into existence, just as it does today. People's experienc-
ing a three dimensional world, along with all its colours, designs, sounds,
smells and tastes, in a piece of meat weighing nearly one kilogram is made
possible only by the perfect creation of Allah. Everyone finds this matchless
miracle of creation ready at birth. Man has no control whatsoever, neither in
the formation of its functions, nor in their continuity, nor at any other stage.
