The word 'Brainwash' has gained currency lately particularly in discourses relating to radical elements, quite often, in the aftermath of their misdemeanours or terror strikes in some parts of the world.
I'm of the view that such a 'wash' could work only on people who lack a brain (encephalon), 'that portion of the cerebro-spinal axis that is contained in the cranial cavity' (Gray's Anatomy). In such skulls, that resemble the archaeological findings of prehistoric times and filled with hogwash the embers of resentment for 'others' is lit and kept smouldering. Many such brains, that contain explosive ideas meant for detonation, are appallingly difficult to understand.
These brainwashed patients believe that the disease they are inflicted with was a blessing bestowed by God and that they will be rewarded with a paradise once they leave this earth. But earliest concept of the disease they are inflicted with, understood by the patient and the healer, according to Pathology, Quick Review and MCQs, is said to be the religious belief that the disease was an outcome of 'curse from God' or the belief in magic that the affliction had supernatural origin from 'evil eye of spirits.
