SOCIAL- SERVICE- (PSYCHOSOCIAL- GENOMICS)


SOCIAL SERVICE (PSYCHOSOCIAL GENOMICS)

Hai Friends,
            The main topic of this posting is Social Service.   Generally, common people have three questions on this topic.  1) What is the reaction of the social service?, 2) Why we have to reward the social worker? 3) What is my personal benefit with all these?  In day to day life we follows the human made social laws, but it can not give the answers to the above questions. Only the natural laws (Neuro Science) can gives clarity to the above questions. 
            In my teenage I had a golden opportunity to participate in 4-H International Youth Exchanging Programme, held by USA.   My four months programme in USA, laid a strong social service foundation in my deeper brain.  Still today once I remained the 4-H pledge.  “ I pledge my head to clear thinking, my heart to great loyalty, my hands to large service and my health to better living for my club, my community, my country, and my world”.  I would also like to express gratitude and dedicated to this posting to my Washington DC 4-H Service Center. 
            Investigations of Neuro Plasticity demonstrate that the Adult Brain can continue to form Novel Neural connections and grow new Neurons in response to learning or training even in old age.   These findings are complimented by contributions of Psycho Social Genomics (PG), a field of scientific enquiry that explores the modulating effects of experience on gene expression. Socio environmental experiences influence neurobiological structure and function across the life course.  PG describes the process by which psychological and social experiences activate or deactivate genes, thereby driving the development of neural pathways.  The human brain is a complex, self-organizing, biological system consisting of trillions of interconnected nerve cells called neurons, operates signaling and integration.   Physical and mental practice may promote  neuro plasticity.  Neurogensis can occur in the motor cortex just by imagining (Visualisation) also.     Challenging learning experiences can lead to the development of brain tissue analogous to the way physical exercise can lead to the development of muscle tissue. 
            Meditation may be generally defined as the international practice whereby one grasps “The Handle of Cognition to cultivate a competent use of his or her own mental capacities, gaining agency over thought and emotion. Long term meditation (10-50 thousands hours of meditation) increased Neural Synchrony was observed not only during the meditative state,  but also when the practitioners were not meditating.   Suggesting that long term mental practice can induce lasting, trit-level changes possibly mediated by structural modifications to the brain.    Mental training may stimulate structural alterations reflective of neuro plasticity.
            The genetic code serves as a “Blue Print” that guides the construction of protein from Amino Acids.  Social behavior may be inherited and transduced via gene expression into neuro plastic alterations in brain structure, leading to psychobiological learning and change.  Social environmental signals turns genes “on” and “off” leading to alterations in protein synthesis, which ultimately result in psychological changes.   A recent study of meditative breathing practice found increased gene expression of the immune factors in practitioners.  Consequently, further psychosocial intervention research could involve interdisciplinary teams of social workers, Neuro Scientists, and Molecular biologists, where date from the Biological Science could be complemented by the insights of social work research. 
Noble Laureate, Elizabeth Black Burn states :
Environmental influences, behaviours, meditation, exercise, stress reduction, improves the cell inner condition to enhance the length of Chromosomes Telomeres, the harbingers of mortality. 
Noble Laureate, Eric Kandel states
The regulation of gene expression by social factors make all bodily functions, including all functions of the brain, susceptible to social influences.   These social influences will be biologically incorporated in the altered expressions of specific genes in specific nerve cells of specific regions of the brain. 
            Social activity (External stimulation) stimulates Telomeres (Cell Nucleus Chromosome) the godown of DNA.  DNA release signal to RNA.  RNA release chemical signals (Genes) to Voneconomo Nerves (Social Nerve) and  Area 25.  These nerves and area releases seritonin, which play a main role in Nurotransmitters convertion  and control.  Neuro transmitters play a main role in nerves chemical signaling.  Thus total nerve system operates body smoothly.   Ex:- Starting an automobile, ignition switch is telemeres; Gasoline Tank is Von Economo Nerve & A-25, Gasolne is seritonine and Neuro Transmitters, Starting automobile engine is firing the neurons with signals.
            Reward circuit of the brain is more complex.  Several brain regions works together in this circuit.  Two intoxicating neuro transmitters 1) Enkephalin, 2) Anadamide (Brain Marjuna), Chemical Forms a pleasure – boosting loop.  These two are interdependent.   A small reward stimulates the pleasure circuit, pleasure – boosting stimulate (recharge) the person to participate in another social service.  Reward satisfy the brains loop.  Rewarding a social worker is the responsibility of the society, because he always motivates positive thinking in the society.  Reward is the recharging coupon of the brains pleasure circuit.
            Newborn human and monkey babies can imitate simple gestures such as sticking out the tongue.  In this action Mirror Neurons plays major role.  Mirror Neurons system discharge signals in Audio Visual Motor Neurons.  Imitation is a very important means by which we learn and transmit skills, language and culture.  Only just by visual, audio, imaging, social service rewarding images are automatically record in ours motors nerves.  Frequently, these recorded motor nevers stimulate the brain for social activity.  Ex: Enjoying a movie is the Mirror Neuron effect (Visual, Audio, Imagination).  This is the personal benefit. 
            Roger Spery, Noble Laureate, Neuro scientist, describe Macro Determinism as a higher order, molar level organization determines and conditions the activity of lower order, nested sub-components, you are not merely summation of these physical elements.  
            Dear friends though, emotion and action trigger Neural Activity which can lead to a Re-organization of the brain, shaping future psychosocial experience.  By social activities we will become active agents in the construction of our own Neuro Biology and Ultimately, our lives. Live with natural laws and enjoy the bliss of life.
            Ancient Yogis always states “ Don’t Listen, speak, sea, bad”.  Chisel your life according to yours ambition.

DOG- WAGGING- THE- TAILE - FINAL



DOG WAGGING THE TAILE – FINAL
Hai Friends,
                         Welcome to 2013.  Commonly some people beliefs that dogs can diagnose the cancer.  This is not true, only trained, selected breed dogs have this ability.  Reality is dogs have highest smelling ability.    Especially Labrador Retriever (LR) breed have the higher smelling ability.   LR originally used to catch fish and pull in nets, now work as guide dogs for the blind, search-and-rescue animals and Narcotics Detectors, according to the American Kennel Club’s website. 
                        Trained diagnostic dog sniffs out cancer.  The LR, which previously worked in rescue, had an accuracy rate as high as 98 percent.  LR Doctor has four legs and a tail.  Japanese Researchers have trained an 8-year-old LR to diagnose colorectal cancer by smelling a patient’s breath and stool.   The dog, which previously worked in water rescue, had an overall accuracy of 95 percent when using the breath test and 98 percent of stool test.   To train the dog, researcher first let her sniff a breath sample from a patient with colorectal cancer.    Then they presented her with a panel of breath samples – One from a cancer patient and four from healthy people.  When the Dog recognized the sample from the cancer patient, the reward was some quality time with a tennis ball.
                        The searchers speculate that the dog’s highly developed sense of smell allowed her to pick up a whiff of the chemical compounds that are unique to cancer.  It’s still unclear whether each cancer has its own chemical signature, or whether the same compounds are present in a variety of cancers.   The researchers note, however, that this particular Lab has been able to detect breast, lung, prostate, uterine, ovarian, bladder, gastric, pancreatic, esophageal and bile-duct cancers from breath samples.
                        Dogs and Humans often fall ill with the same kind of cancers.  Scientists contend that the similarities between these tumors including genetic resemblances can be instructive.  The breeds represented by the dogs are particularly susceptible to cancers that also afflict humans.  These malignancies look like the human forms under a microscope and act similarity as well.   Dog breeds susceptibility to cancers: - Rottwelier  - Bone Cancer, Collie – Nasal Cancer, Chow Chow- Stomach Cancer, Golden Retriever – Lymphoma, Boxer – Brain Cancer, Scottish Terrier – Bladder Cancer.   Scientists are researching different breeds for different cancers.  Thus dogs are helping a lot to human beings in caner control. 
                        Neuro Research in the past 15 years demonstrate that no sense work alone.   The multi sensory revolution is also suggesting new way to improve devices for disabled.  Many researchers now think of the sensory regions of the brain as inherently multi sensory. By practicing yoga every body can attain ESP (Extrasensory Perception).   Some people are abusing this ESP as miracles and declaring themselves as god men.   There is no any special breed of god men in the nature.  These god men are mentally deteriated and psychopaths.   Dogs are working for human welfare.  Tail Wagging God Men are abusing the human culture.  Beware of these types of cult peoples.   Always live with scientific realities.  Following are some scientific realities.  Love dogs, beware of god men. 
·         The brain acts before the mind decides.  Electrical Signals in the brain precede the conscious decision to move at least half a second and often by much longer.
·         549 average numbers of additional calories, sleep-derived people eat every day as compared with well-rested individuals.
·         The brain has no receptors for pain.   Pain including a headache results from pressure on nerve issues or blood vessels surrounding the brain.

INTENSIVE- SRINU- KRIYA- (KUNDALINI- &- NEURO- GENESIS)


INTENSIVE SRINU KRIYA (KUNDALINI & NEURO GENESIS)

Hai Friends,
I am very happy and esteemed to introduce an intensive Srinukriya (ISK).  This is an integral practice of Ancient Kundalini Yoga.  Kudalani is an intensive practice of Yoga System and Advanced Neuro Science.   At present no authorized texts are available on Kundalini.  Mainly yoga solves the “Inner” Life problems.  The facts of higher yoga can neither be proved nor be demonstrated.  Patanjali Maharshi a master mind has written 196 Yoga Suthras. He has condensed the essential philosophy and techniques of yoga in a manner which is marvelous of condensed and systematic exposition.   In the olden days all students of Yoga were made to commit it to memory and meditate regularly and deeply on the sutras for bringing out their hidden meanings.   So in those days there was no necessity of practical guide (Prayoga Sastry) to yoga sutras.   Every student has different self-acquired meanings on yoga sutras.  Basically yoga sutras give the main clues of Kundalini.   Lot of research was conducted on yoga suthras which is still continuing.

                        Pathanjali’s is unique to the practitioner is Samyamana (Dharana-Dhyana – Samadhi).  Ancient Yogic students follows the same.  Memory – Meditation – Meaning (M3).  Samyamana(M3) is a thunderbolt  to the yogic practitioner.  We can also understand them as Itchha Sakti  (Will Power), Kriya Sakthi (Practice), Jnana Sakti (Knowledge or Wisdom).  M3 plays maximum role in solving the inner life problems.  Advanced Neuro Science can analyse these facts of higher Yoga to some extent. 

                        At present Neuro Scientist claims the brain, which completes 40,000 hours of ordinary meditation, can attain its maximum potentiality.   It is a very lengthy process.   ISK practice is an integral approach.    So, it can provide maximum potentiality to the brain within a short time.  Previous meditation systems work in a Biofeedback manner.  Whereas ISK directly stimulate the brain hubs.
  
EXERCISE &  PRANAYAMA ::
                         In every exercise schedule you must attain body’s metabolic rate.  Anaerobic exercises (Higher Runs, Power lifting) have maximum medical values.  Metabolic rate and Anaerobic conditions improve the BDNF (Brain Protein) in the brain.  BDNF is most important in establishing and survival of new neurons.

                        Pranayama improves Aerobic system of the body and brain.  Mainly concentrate on Ujjiva (long breath) and Kapalabhati (short breath) Pranayamas, they provide theta and gama waves in the brain.  Like many other organs the brain response is positively to exercise, a good diet and adequate sleep can increase the number of neural connections.   In specific region of the brain, thereby improving memory and reasoning ability, they would take better care of themselves.  

                        Neuro Scientists found that exercising of mice in a running is sufficient to nearly double the number of dividing cells in the Hippocampus, resulting in a Robust increase in new Neurons.   That a mental work out can buff up the brain, much as physical exercise builds the body.   Particular brain exercising activities would help keep those new neurons around. 

MEDITATION ON BRAIN PARTS :

                        Visualise the brain parts tags and their functions.


MEDITATION ON NEURONS :

        First of all visualize a Neuron in yours prefrontal cortex for one minute.  Next visualize on every part of the neuron namely for one minute and its functions Dendrites – Collect Neuron impulses, Head – Soma, Nucleus, Chromosomes, DNA, Genes, Mitochondria, Cytoplasm, Micro tubes, Axon, Mylin Sheath, Ionic Openings, Synaps, Receptors,  Neuro transmitters their functions for one minute. Synaptic knob thickness decides the level of long memory ability, it is controlled by genes.  Synaptic Neurotransmeters   combination prepares genes proteins, for Morality, Spirituality etc. blue print of the genes works start from the Synaps cleft only. 

 
NEURO GENESIS AND SYNAP GENESIS :

                        Previously, we know that a mature adult brain remains stable, unchanging, computer like machine with fixed memory and processing power, loose brain cells.  In 1960 – 1970 several group of researches showed that the axons or main branches of neurons in the adult brain and spinal cord can regrow to some extent after injury.   Although the skin, liver, heart, kidneys, lungs and blood can also generate new cells to replace damaged ones, at least to a limited extent.  You can’t teach an old dog new tricks, and certainly as adults, many of us find it painful to learn something completely new.

                        Brain Plasticity is highly dependent on environmental stimuli that increase Neurogensis, Dentric branching, Number of Dendritc spines and synaptic strength.    Neurons and Glia are produced through out life from neural stem cells, which are located in lateral ventricles, and sub granular zone of the Hippocampal Dentate Gyrus. The birth of new brain cells is not a single step process.  So called multipotent neural stem cells divide periodically in brain, giving rise to other stemcells and to progeny that can grow up to either neurons or support cells named Glia.  On average only half of the make the trip, the rest die.  It takes more than one month from when a new neuron is formed from a stem cell unit it becomes fully functional and able to send and receive information.

                        BDNF, the neuro trophic and insulin like growth factor play important role in keeping the cells alive and encouraging them to mature and become functional.  In the adult brain new born neurons have been found in Hippocampus and in the Olfactory bulbs.  Environment can affect the wiring of the brain and neurogenesis.   Thousands of new cells are generated in the adult brain every day, particularly, in the Hippocampus, a structure involved in learning and memory.   With in a couple of weeks, most of those newborn neurons will die, unless the human is challenged to learn something new.    Genes checks the neuro genesis. 

                        Day-1 stemcell give rise to a cell destined to become a new neuron.  Day-7 : New cell migrates and becomes an immature neuron.  Day-14 : New neuron is active and wired into a learning network.  Stimulating neuro genesis would also lead to new type of treatment for depression.  In epilepsy where it appears that new cells are born but then migrate to the wrong locations, finding ways to redirect errant neurons could be the key.   Neuro Scientists found evidence for Gama Waves signalings between distant cortical areas and the spiking of the neurons in the Hippocampus and the cortical areas strongly influenced by synchronous oscillation of brain theta waves.  Gama and theta waves plays main role in brain plasticity.

KUNDALINI : 

                        Gaining a little bit of control, on autonomous nervous system of the body, by meditating on chakras (Nerve flexes) was called as Kundalini Vidya.  But this little bit of control has maximum scientific benefits, which helps Human evaluation.   Defining Kundalini is highly impossible.  First of all you must know the basics of the Kundalini science.  Kundalini Books are available from Bihar School of Yoga, Sivananda Asramam, Himalayan Institute, Theosophy, Motilal Banarasi Das, Ganesh & Co. etc or joining in a Kundalini training institutes.  Normal Kundalini meditation works as a Biofeed back system.   In most of the Kundalini meditation practitioners concentrate on their own vertebra trigger points (nerve flexes).  This triggered vertebra nerves stimulate the concern brain areas.  By this practice vertebra nerves and concerned brain areas generate new neurons (Neuro & Sypnatic Genesis), which will improves brain plasticity.   External stimuli on important parts of the body stimulates neurogenesis. 

             Kundalini meditation works as a Nano type of Meditation.  Ex: Manipura Chakra has one main & 10 Sub Trigger points (One center & 10 Petals) when we meditate on these eleven points of Manipura one by one for a minimum required time, automatically 10 areas of the brains occipital lobes are also stimulated & Neuro genesis takes place.  If you practice on six chakras simultaneously one by one, totally you stimulate 50 areas of the brain.  With a high intensive practice of 20 rounds of meditation (required time) on 6 chakras, astonishingly stimulate’s 1000 areas of the brain and in all the areas neurogenesis takes place.  Yogis claim this stage as Sahsrara Siddhi.  This is only the scientific secrete of Kundalini.    But this practice requires number of years to attain the target.   Don’t practice it directly.   Much science and technology is needed.   So practice in the presence of your Kundalini Coach only.  Fifty trigger points awareness is most important.

                        With the help of a drop of pain balm application, you can identify your trigger points easily.    By breath, pulse, nadha, you have to stimulate the 50 trigger points of the chakras.   Much patience and strength is needed for all these above practices.   Attaining finer awareness on 50 trigger points and physical energy is most important in Kundalini practice.

ISK PRACTICE :

            Generally in SK practice we stimulate Area-25 by inside and outside breath awareness.  Area-25 is the trigger point of the brain and it stimulates all the areas of the brain.  At present the deep brain stimulation works on the same basis. 

                        For ISK practice you must daily practice Pranayama few rounds.   Weekly once physical exercise, brain parts and neuro meditation, Kundalini 50 trigger points meditation is suffice.

                        ISK Meditation practice requires 30 minutes.   First 10 Minutes meditation practice with Kapalabhathi stimulation on A-25 (Stimulate Neurogensis). Next 10 Minutes meditation with Ujjiva Pranayama stimulation on A-25 (establish the new neurons).  Remaining 10 Minutes meditation on the pre-frontal cortex with new topics (New Neurons learned the working ability).   Kapalabhati stimulate total brain and attains anaerobic condition (Gama wave) which stimulate Neurogensis.  Ujjiva Pranayama (Theta) establish new neurons.   New topic meditation (Nadha + Creativity) encourages learning to the new neurons.   This improves brain plasticity and help in survival of new neurons.

                        In ISK practice A-25 Kahapabhati, Ujjiva Stimulation, New topic meditation are most important for Neurogenesis establishing and learning please make note new born neurons die in one week unless you challenge them to learn something new.

WISH YOU A HAPPY & MEMORABLE  NEW YEAR

Learned to challenged your new born neurons everyday, automatically your brain will become a new one.

DOG- WAGGING- THE- TAIL - 3


DOG WAGGING THE TAIL - 3
Hai Friends,

                      Some Yogi’s Ex: Shiridi Saibaba, Swami Satyananda Saraswathi of Bihar School of Yoga, Swami Rama of Himalayan Institutes etc. have used to  a dog as their companion, because dogs have the highest range of senses abilities than human.  In kennels different breads show different abilities.  Dob performs as bodyguard, Shepherd performs as Loyal – For Herding & Guarding sheep, Labrador Retriever performs as Gun and Guide Dog and so on.  If we provide some training on their genetical characters they exhibit their maximum potentialities.  Same as in human, if we practice different systems of Yogas, we can attain maximum abilities of our five senses and nervous system only.    Ecological conditions also plays major role in the practice.   In body building European peoples blood vessels are wider than Asians.   So European Bodybuilders have more chances to win.  
                         Human brain is easily susceptible to unrealistic, illusions, fakes, magics and Siddhis.  These spoil the brain plasticity and create hurdles in the practice.  For achieving the final goal of evolution, we have to cross all these hurdles.  As Lord Budda said “Veil upon veil shall lift, but still veil upon veil will be found behind”.  In general people expect some precognitive abilities in the dogs.  Dogs seem to react to distinct cognitive states of other dogs.  The dogs varied how they signaled a desire to play depending on the other dog’s position.   If a prospective playmate was already facing it, the dogs gave a visual signal – opening it mouth wide or bowing down into that familiar bottom-up play pose.  But if the other dog was turned away and otherwise engaged, it might instead give it friends a little nip.  Dogs don’t have any special precognitive abilities, same as in humans.  But they can send visual signals only.  Meditation can improve human cognitive abilities but they cannot provide precognition abilities.

            “Te Samadhav upasarga Vyutthane Siddhayah” Patanjali Yoga Sutras  3-38. “Siddhis are obstacles in the way of Samadhi (Theta wave) and powers when mind is out ward – turned”.  Yogis do not want to have anything to do with siddhis, because their exercise creates all kinds of temptations and distractions in his path.  But perfection means and includes the power to control all the phenomena of all the planes on which consciousness functions and so the perfect man has not only to have direct knowledge of reality.   But also knowledge and mastery of all planes on which his consciousness functions.   Yogi’s supreme wisdom, which makes the misuse of these powers impossible.

TAIL- WAGGING- THE- DOG - 2


TAIL WAGGING THE DOG ! – 2
Hai Friends,

 Dogs are my best companions.  Already I had a nickname as “Dogs Yogi”.  Companionship of a dog around or even just in mind help the people to generate more goals, feel more confident about achieving those objectives and handle stress better and lower blood pressure.   Yoga also provides the same to the practitioner.   Don’t create any fantasy and magic ideas on yoga.    Many secretes and intensive practices of yoga are thought by the unlearned, to be magical.   Learned practitioner doesn’t have any magics.   Scientific reality drive out magics.   Canine tail chasing and humans hand washings were similar to obsessive – Compulsive disorder (OCD).   Stereotyped and repetitive dog changing their tail and human hand washing were concerned to be a mental disorder (OCD).    So, always feed scientific realities to yours brain and avoid tail wagging the dog – Dog chasing their tail, incidents from yours routine life.
In our brain, 4 M.M. thickness of the Cerebral Cortex contains 86 Billion Neurons, nerve impulse speed is 220 miles per hour, produce 25 watts of power, consume 20 percent of the body’s oxygen, One hundred thousand miles of axon length (4 trips around the earth), over ten trillion synapses, 1+16 zeros calculations per second, 400 miles capillaries.   Please once visulize your brain and remains its potentiality and leads a realistic life.
Dear Friends, the only person who can chisel your personality and decide your destiny is you yourself.   You yourself is your Guru, Guide and God.

TAIL- WAGGING- THE- DOG - 1


TAIL WAGGING THE DOG ! – I
Hai Friends,
TAIL WAGGING THE DOG !

Dog wagging the tail is real, but tail wagging the dog is unreal.  Meditation is only a brain exercise, it improves brain inner conditions i.e. Neurons, Neuro Transmitters, BDNF, Neuro Genesis etc.,  A Dog’s tail can be used for its social and physical needs.  Dog can use its tail to communicate, balance for swimming, warmth, and to keep insects away.  As a part of the dog’s spinal column, the Dog’s tail is veed for balance.  Yogi’s invented the mediation to improve people’s brains plasticity and consciousness.  Real Yogi never shows any magics and fantasy illusions.  They think reality, live in reality, speaks reality, preaches reality.   Indian’s top most yogi Vemana says “Make your life gold, but don’t waste your life in thriving for the gold”.   So always leads yours life with scientific realities and make yours life gold.

DIWALI - BIOLOGICAL- CLOCK - LIGHT- THERAPY


DIWALI – BIOLOGICAL CLOCK -  LIGHT  THERAPY

Hai Friends,
            Yogi’s, always concentrate on their inner tiny light in meditation.  They think that the tiny light is the nano particle of the totality light (Neevarastu Sukanti Vidyulekheva).   To attain a single creativity thought they control Light (Trataka), Sound (Nadha) in their mediation.  “The Awareness of the inner light” development is the symbolism of Diwali.
            The Neuro Scientists are doing lot of research on eyes and their inner parts stem cell technology is growing fast.  Stem cells give rise to all the organs in the body, a process that continues to fascinate and mystify the scientific world. A leading Japanese Group demonstrated the growth of both Human and mouse retina in laboratory dish. The event enables better understanding of brain development and may lead to evolute treatment for eye diseases.  In 10.5 days they developed three distint cell layer’s of retina, rods and cones, horizontal, bipolar and amacrine cells, and ganglion cells.  Ganglion cells play maximum role in eye.  Two functions sight, Biological Clock Rythams, are conducting by the eye.  Each of our eyes is also essentially two organs in one.
            Yogis practice trataka (Yogic Gazing) for developing eyesight, solving the Psychic Problems and to evolute their brain to the Max.  In between 1880-90 Ramprasad of Theosophy did a lot of research on the Yogi’s, who are living in cave’s, without any sun shine (Biological cycles) for number of months. They lead very simple lives.  All the Yogi’s ambition is to complete 40 thousand Hours of Meditation, to attain full evolution of their brain (Poorna) and enjoying the meditational bliss. Only for their undisturbed practice, they live in caves.  At present we have sound proof, air conditioned houses.  So we don’t need any caves. He lived and moved along with cave Yogis and observed their life style.  Finally he gave the most valuable research information in his book, nature’s finer forces and Tatwas.  Cave’s maintain the air conditioned atmosphere, they provide echo sound, which will improve Nadha.  They practice Agnisara Kriyas, Bhastrika Pranayama, Trataka.  By this practice they maintained, biological cycles, sound health and long life.  Alway’s they kept fireplace in the caves for gazing.  For their diet they cooked potatoes in fire and hot springs.  Brains Biological clock regulates body’s seasonal activities. Such as sleep, body temperature, feeding and breeding, with the help of sunshine.
            At present Neuro Scientists are searching the hidden organ in our eyes.  Evolution, in fact, may have played an important role in pushing the brain toward ever greater energy efficiencies When a nerve cell communicates with another, the brain uses just a millionth of the energy that a digital computer expends to perform, the equivalent operation.  Already scientists have built ‘Neuromorphic’ Electronic Circuits that Mimic Aspects of the brain’s signaling Net work.  Neural Activation of  the (30 to 80 Hertz) Gama frequency band has attracted the attention of researchers who have found that patients with schizopherenia and Autism show decreased levels of gama.  Neurons in the Hippocampus and the cortical area is strongly influenced by theta band (4 to 8 Hertz).  The emerging field of optogenetics, which combines genetic engineering with light to observe and control group of neurons is allowing researchers to scrutinize individual Neural Circuits.  An approach that will revolutionize the study of brain function.  Optogenitic stimulation can potentially target problem cells much more precisely than can electrodes used in DBS (Deep Brain Stimulation).
            Vision occurs when the rods and cones of the retina detect light and signals to the visual cortex at the back of the brain.  The rods and cones convey the signals to the brain vianeurons called retinal ganglion cells, which extends their axons down the optic nerve.  These are called as photosensitive ganglion cell and they produce, previously unknown pigment called Melanopsin, that enables them to sense light directly.  The photo sensitive ganglion cells send information to the brains main BILOGICAL CLOCK.  Biological Clock adjust the body to the cycles on night and day to common people, blind and animals.  If the cycles disturbs they rise the risk of cardiovascular diseases, Gastrointestinal Distrass, Cancer and Metabolic Syndrome, Type 2 Diabetes, Sleep, Sex.   The birds have light sensing cells in their brain.  It turns out that a surprising amount of light can penetrate the feathers, skin and skull of a bird to activate these cells.  Human Biological clock is established in the SUPRACHIASMATIC  Neclus (SCN) of Hypothalamus.
             According to the “Hata yoga Pradipika” of Swatmarama (Authorised text on Yoga) Trataka Eradicates all the eye diseases, fatigue and sloth and closes the doorways creating these problems.

SAIBABA gazing on the fire and listening Nadha

            RajadiRaj Yogiraj, Saibaba of Shiridi, practical Nadha Yogi, follower of saint Kabir, expert in Shat Kriya and Khanda Dhauti, Social Worker, Humanitarian, Great Psychologist.  A simple living yogi.  I cannot define him completely.  He always used to live on ALMS and shared it to needy people and dogs.  Before 153 years, he started Dhuni (Holy fire place) in Dwarakamai Mosque in Shiridi.  Most of the time he sat infront of Dhuni, by Gazing (Trataka) on the fire and Listening Nadha.  (By Closing his right ear with hand).  By neutralizing, the two important senses (vision and sound) he maintained samadhi (Teata).  He used a brick instead of pillow to maintain a full awareness also in his sleep.  In 1975 I practiced Nadha for ten days, in Lendi Bag, Gurustan, upstairs of Samadhi Mandir, Dwarakamai, Hanuman Mandir.  Saibaba’s pious life is an encyclopedia of yoga.
            Diwali’s fire crackers stimulate photo sensitive Glia Neurons by high light and sounds.  These neurons respond more to blue light, so in trataka practice, concentrate on the center of light, where there is blue.   This practice stimulate biological clock and improves health.
            Dear friends Agnisara, Bastrika (Vagus Nerve), Trataka (Eye Glianeurons) are the Nervous & Eye Sight, exercises belonging to Yogis light therapy.  Enjoy the Diwali Bliss externally and internally, by practicing the Yogis Light Therapy.
