Abstract
This paper first reviews the existing models for human intelligence. Then it discusses the nineteen types of human thought processes – Kriya-Pratikriya, Indriya, Aatmsaat, Smaran, Samajh, Soch, Vichar, Vimarsh, Kalpana, Swapna, Anubhava, Anubhooti (or Aatm-Prerana), Tark, Bhav, Dhyan, Gyan, Vivek, Siddhi and Darshan which are commonly present in the Indian books regarding human thinking. These processes when joined together form a new Indian model for human intelligence. Though many aspects of human thinking have now been understood, the core reason behind superior capabilities of human brain as compared to present Artificial Intelligence or neural network based machines or other living beings has not come out clearly. This paper relates the biological research with human thinking modes to explain some aspects of this superior intelligence.
