"tell me, o swan, your ancient tale"

the narrator speaks of a land where there is no

bird of prey

doubt or sorrow

human contact

flower of death

In this poem by Kabir, he speaks about a land where there is no doubt or sorrow. He even says so explicitly in the second verse:

(...)"There is a land where no doubt nor sorrow have

rule:

where the terror of Death is no more."(...)

This poem is a metaphor of heaven, God, and an angel or soul (ancient and timeless) represented by the swan. The speaker wants to know where the soul goes when one dies, what it wants, what's the purpose of life. There is a connection to God that brings the soul joy and happiness. It also makes it feel sure about the existence of God and existing forever.

the support that the author, uses in the article facing our fears is a): a definition of the part of the brain called the amygdala.

he takes neuroscientist joseph ledoux's words by telling that by falling to distinguish between evolutionary old systems located in the amygdala and newer systems, centered in the prefrontal cortex, doctors have conflated non conscious threat circuits in the brain with circuits that underlie the conscious experience of fear. that, the author says, "leads ledoux to the jarring conclusion that the amygdala, a decades-old centerpiece of the brain's fear circuit, does not underlie the conscious feeling of fear".

despite this, the author points out in the article that that is a controversial notion and that evidence, in animal and humans, supports the idea that core emotions can exist outside of conscious awareness.
