The amygdala, a key structure in the limbic system of the human brain, is responsible for processing emotions such as fear, anger, and the need for survival. Throughout evolutionary history, this part of the brain has played an important role in maintaining human life, but today in modern societies, its constant presence in a state of alert and defense has led to consequences such as anxiety, unhealthy competition, and violence. This article examines the role of the amygdala with an interdisciplinary approach; from a scientific perspective, its function in the nervous system is examined; from a philosophical perspective, issues such as ownership, territory, and will are analyzed; and from a spiritual perspective, the possibility of humans freeing themselves from the dominance of fear and moving toward higher consciousness is analyzed. Finally, strategies are presented to balance the functioning of the amygdala and strengthen the prefrontal cortex so that humans can achieve peace, empathy, and self-knowledge.
