or read it all:

So far none has been able to make a clear comparison and describe the relation between the size of a brain and its intelligence. The brain remains mystic to scientists as well as to spirtualists and yogis.

However, I'd like to start a discussion and issue research topics entitled "babies' brain intelligence"..."babies brain?where are you"... "brain embryo before 3"..."real brain in a virtual world"..."virtual brain in a real world"..."real mind in a virtual world"..."virtual mind in a real world"..."mind materialised"..."mind dwells in matter"... it is an endless list.

What is common in all is one fact.
The brain is a material object that we can touch while the mind is not. Since intelligence is something that we can't touch then it is associated with the mind which is a non-material object. To understand intelligence we have to invite the mind and question it. To observe the relation between the size of the brain and intelligence as if you are observing a wave in an ocean. Trying to interpret such an observation is as watching an everlasing movie of which the observer is a part of that movie. Oh! what a game is it. What a movie we are living in.
