Well, I would disagree with you that the brain can never be overwhelmed. It is an accepted fact in the fields of medicine and psychology that the mind can only handle so much stress, and if it crosses a certain level it can be severely affected. There are many disorders to prove this, PTSD being one of the most widespread. The brain, if pushed too hard, too fast, can snap very easily.

I pushed my mind way too hard the other day with regard to my original post. When I got home I had a feeling of intense pressure in my mind, and I could not even formulate basic thoughts. My cognitive and perceptive abilities were severely impaired, and I more or less just stayed in my room with the light off for a long time, with a very painful feeling in my head. It is interesting, though. After taking a break for a while (the pressure is slowly subsiding) the mind seems to be digesting the information I force fed it the other day. Obviously this is happening at a preconscious level, but I catch glimpses of it every now and again. I feel I am starting to put the huge mountain of information together.

With regard to brain-wave generators and binaural beats, I'm working with a program called Holosync right now. It's pretty effective/
