Washington: It has been revealed about an educated person that he can read words and letters but even consciously he does not understand numbers or numbers nor can he form them.
The man was shown the number 8 in his original form, but he could not understand it, and when he was rotated 90 degrees, it looked like a mask. The man kept looking at the numbers, but he couldn’t recognize the numbers. But the situation came after an accident.
Experts have described a man named RFS (because experts do not want to reveal the patient’s name) as a geological engineer by profession. He is being treated by Oliver Sex, a psychiatrist. This research has also made interesting discoveries about human consciousness and perception and also what is self-consciousness and how does it arise?
RFS is currently 60 years old and has been suffering from back pain for some time. Doctors initially thought he had a stroke, but after further investigation, he was diagnosed with a strange disease called ‘cortico-basal syndrome’ in which brain cells begin to deplete rapidly.
To a person suffering from this strange disease, the numbers appear in the form of tangled needles instead of inverted or slanted. Now they can’t read the price of the goods and don’t know the speed of the car. When they go to the hotel, their room door has their name written or marked on a white piece of paper instead of a number.
Although they can count in their brains, they have a hard time understanding numbers 2 and 9, but they still understand numbers 0 and 1. This is because these two numbers, 1 and 0, are like English letters and their brains can understand them.
Now experts from Johns Hopkins University and other institutions are doing more research on the patient
