A number of years ago, neuroscientists established the fact that the human brain cannot evolve further. You can only learn to use it better, but it cannot evolve further, physically. The only way the brain could evolve physically [in theory] and become more capable is if the size or the number of neurons could be increased. If you increase the number of neurons, clarity would be lost. If you increase the size of the neurons, the volume of energy they consume would become such that the body would not be able to sustain it.
Why the Human Brain Cannot Evolve Further
Neuroscientists are saying that the human brain cannot evolve further because the physical laws do not allow it. Adiyogi said that unless the dynamics of the solar system change, which means unless the physical laws change on the planet, human beings cannot evolve further, physically.
If you are willing to do some very intense and focused work, we can rewire your brain completely.
But you can evolve in ways that are not physical. The way you are right now is not fixed 100%. If you strive, you can cross the limitations you live in right now. That is the most dynamic and creative process for a human being.
How Rewiring Your Brain Actually Works
Neuroplasticity means you can rewire your brain completely. We have always been saying that in the yogic systems. If you are willing to do some very intense and focused work, we can rewire your brain completely, so that you think differently, feel differently, act differently – in a matter of 24 hours. Just by cultivating a different kind of thought, by doing different kinds of activity, you can reshape your brain. The gray matter can increase and decrease in different areas of the brain by doing certain practices, in a matter of days or weeks.
We have proven that in people who do a simple 21-minute practice called Shambhavi Mahamudra Kriya, which is part of the Inner Engineering process. Studies by the University of California have shown that the neuronal regeneration in the brain is about 240% higher than normal if you are doing this practice for over three months.
Yogic Ways of ‘Biohacking’
Everyone could do with a little more intelligence – even more so because in your thirties or forties, the neuroregeneration in your brain starts to slow down, which means more neurons are dying than are being replaced.
Shambhavi can halt or even reverse the aging process, which has been documented through scientific research by medical schools.
If you practice Shambhavi every day, the number of neurons that are being replaced will be higher than the number of neurons that are dying. That means age need not take away your intelligence. Shambhavi has a certain element that creates ojas, which is a non-physical dimension of energy. If you generate sufficient ojas to wrap every cell in your body with it, you will be bouncing with health.
Shambhavi can halt or even reverse the aging process, which has been documented through scientific research by medical schools. Every day, billions of old cells in your body are dying and new cells are being born. Generally, once in seven to ten years, all the thirty to forty trillion of old cells are completely replaced by new cells. That means, every seven to ten years, you virtually have a new body.
How Shambhavi Can Reverse Your Cellular Age
Shambhavi Mahamudra greatly enhances this rejuvenation process. Within six weeks of practice, you will see that the vitality and energy of your body, how you are within yourself, and how your body feels to you, will be at least eighteen months younger than your chronological age. If you practice it continuously for six months, you will be at least three years younger than your chronological age. If you practice it for two and a half years without a break, you will be at least eight to ten years younger than your chronological age.
It is medically established that the cellular age of a person can be reduced with the right kind of rejuvenation because in everyone’s body, there is a replacement of cells. At what pace it happens determines how energetic and young you feel. Youthfulness is not a question of years – it is a question of how you feel, and how active you can be. This rejuvenation process can be greatly enhanced through certain yogic practices.
