Most likely the hippocampus. Why turn to something that we cannot possibly study or understand (because we cannot even confirm that it's real) when there is already something that we can study and research and come to understand (the human brain) without resorting to mysticism?
It happen to all of us in fact.
You try, try and try again.
Something after trying it come in your mind very fast.
Other time it come after sometime, other time just doesn't come or it come after few days.
Where do you think it come from?

If I don't understand it, it's because you don't know how to explain it. And again, that's fine-- it's what we would expect from something that is made up and for which there are many conflicting explanations. On the other hand, science has rules that helps to reduce --and often eliminate-- that confusion and bias from the research. Science is understanding the human brain better and better each day, while "spirit" remains a confusing jumble in spite of a head start of many centuries.
Ton, the brain is something material.
It allow the mind to function as a car would allow a driver to move.
The car wouldn't move unless the driver decide to start the car and push the accelerator and the driver couldn't drive unless he would sit in a car.
From this we can deduce that they need each other but we also can understand that the vehicle is not in a condition to decide anything.
You keep on citing the brain as the one who is in charge but in reality is in charge for nothing so if you really want to understand something in this
context you really should deal with the mind not the brain.
And to understand the mind you got to explore the inner layers of it.
Physical science can a little bit that is why the knowledge in this regard is so little.
But the more they study the sooner will understand that they need a different type of science to penetrate the inner layers of the mind.
