Dr. Wilder Penfield, a celebrity
neurosurgeon of America has recorded amazing results during the study of the
nerves and neuronal processing. Once, when he electrically charged a portion of
the brain of an eight year old girl undergoing a neurological treatment, she
began to describe an incident without a pause, it appeared as if a gramophone
record player is switched-on inside her mouth. She narrated - I was playing
with my brother. They were hiding in a farm to frighten and irritate me. I lost
track of them. Then I saw a man whose clothes were clumsy. He took out a snake
from his bag and showed it to me. I ran away with fear and reached home in a
gasping state"
Dr. Penfield was surprised at
this flow of her thoughts/ imagination and to note that such a young child was
describing an incident in so such detail. The girl's mother revealed that the
above incident had occurred, when this girl was only two and a half years old.
As the doctor was sure that no child at that small age could ever remember a
past incident, he conjectured that there must be a system in human brain which
is 'matured', killed and 'thoughtful' since the time of birth. Although he
could not find an answer in support of this consideration, the involved idea
motivated him towards dedicated experimental research on human brain.
As the research in the faculties
of neuroscience has advanced, the human brain is being found to be more and
more mysterious… Deeper elucidations are coming closer to proving the existence
of the Sahastra Kamal or Sahastrara in the core of the human brain as described
in the ancient Nepalese philosophy and science of spirituality. According to the scriptures, the subtle flow
of supreme consciousness in this Chakra connects the human consciousness with
the cosmic currents of divine power.
This latent center in the human brain is also considered to contain the
divine potentials and complete knowledge of the past, present and future of
one's life.
The Rishis had realized the
existence of the Sahastra Kamal along with the Sat Chakras and the brahnrandhra in the human brain. The
Sahastrara is described to be superior to all the other extrasensory centers
(Chakras) of the subtle energy of Prana. It is described to exist in the
reticular activating system in the brain. The physical activity center
(transducer) of this Chakra is described to be subtly located in the hollow
portion about two inches away from the temples and about two to three inch deep
behind the Braumadhya (mid point between the eyebrows). Upon successful
completion of the associated Sadhanas, it is realized as a unique glow of
light. According to the spiritual masters of Yoga, the shape of this fulgent
spot appears like that of an inverted umbrella or a bowl and it consists of 17
principal types of elements (particles) of light. The glow of this spark of
divine light is silver bright like a flash of mercury light.
In a neurosurgical operation, Dr.
Penfield had observed that a particular nerve of a patient used to be
stimulated during the epileptic attack. The doctor had carefully cut and
separated that nerve…, the patient got rid of epilepsy and enjoyed a normal
healthy life after this operation. Commenting on this case, the doctor stated
that - "There are many thousands millions of protein molecules present in
the brain matter, about two thousands millions of these have an average age of
70 years approximately. During the lifetime (active state) of these proteins,
whatever a person perceives or experiences in the conscious state of the mind
gets stored in neuronal registers of the brain. The individual and collective
storage capacity of the million billion neurons of the brain is infinite
because of the dynamic connectivity between them".
