Buddha thickens your brains

by Eko Prasetyo @ 5:49 AM

According to this, Meditation alters brain patterns in ways that are likely permanent, scientists have known. But a new study shows key parts of the brain actually get thicker through the practice.

I do agree on this matter. I have always believed that a routine moment of calmness and concentrated breathings and thorough mind self-examining of your body can make you healthier. It's all because you'll have more regulated state of mind and a relieved metabolism, the things will likely to have been put into a state of havoc after a day of hard works.


While regulating your mind and metabolims, your nerves, the most fragile and yet the most decisive parts of your mortal shell, are put into a more organized state. In that state, the nerves will need less efforts to stabilize yourself and therefore require to discharce less neutrons. Less neutrons mean less disruption and therefore less energy.

Less energy means longer lifetime.

So, meditate each day, calm your senses, breathe deeply and regularly. You'll see heaven, amidst briefly.
