    Smell

    I don't know about anyone else, but my sense of smell is the strongest.  Ask my family...

    Sight

    This question is a hard one, because all of the senses are so important. What a blessing it is to have senses.

  • Sight

    MY strongest one is the hearing, sadly this one increase as my sight suffered a little, but is really a bless to have all of our senses.

    Touch

    How I found the answer :

    If someone is going to torture me, what's the worst [ for me ] option .

    Disgusting food , gruesome views , really bad smell - unpleasant experience all of them but not so bad .

    Extremely loud sounds , in rhythm [ Puppet on a Chain anyone:) ] - terrible indeed !

    ....and the last possibility : The villain touches me ...with something ...

    The meditation ends here  -  1 , with a confidence .

    Cheers

    Sight

    The sight alone of anything has much more impact, than touching, hearing, smelling and tasting.

    Hearing

    Under hearing, listening to a favorite music is the strongest among all because it activates our RIGHT brain and also induces day dream and innovative thoughts.

    Reactions to chemicals were first, even some insects had not yet developed full touch/proprioception for example. Taste and smell are what the earliest sensors were sensing, but, were neither taste nor smell, as those two functions were basically the same thing in the beginning…but internal not external at first. There are many more senses of course, but we’ll stick to the 3rd grade version if you prefer. Sight developed along the same route, with the sugar driving a feedback loop for photosynthesis, and that developing over time to sight. Touch/proprioception was spotty, with some life forms getting internal reception only after external reception. Hearing was last in that it was a terrestrial adaptation, but, had origins in things such as lateral lines in fish, for example. etc.
