<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Welcome back to the 25th episode of Skeletal Leap: A Living Adventure!</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Today’s episode titled “<strong>Eye Training for Crystal Clear Eye Vision NOW!</strong>” will tell you about an unintended evidence strengthening the skeletal chakra hypothesis via achieving central fixation of the eyes.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">As I’ve mentioned earlier, the biological miracle that I have long been working with is the skeletal codes of instant central fixation of the eyes, the body and the mind.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Mainstream ophthalmology had always maintained that vision, once gone bad, could never be cured.</p>





<p class="wp-block-paragraph">SKELETAL LEAP, the mind body connection for mind and body healing, is a giant leap that our <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skeleton" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">skeleton</a> can take through the way it postures its joints.</p>



<p class="p1 wp-block-paragraph">I had stumbled upon this miracle many years ago, coincidentally</p>

Central fixation, through the opening of chakras,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:03.920,0:00:08.400
not only improves our vision and&nbsp;
changes our physiological systems,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:08.400,0:00:24.800
it also changes us as a person.
My name is Laadi Ojas. Welcome</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:24.800,0:00:34.160
to “Skeletal Leap: A Living Adventure”. Skeletal&nbsp;
Leap transforms one’s life into a personal heaven.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:34.160,0:00:38.480
Today’s episode will tell you about&nbsp;
an unintended evidence strengthening</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:38.480,0:00:44.800
the skeletal chakra hypothesis via&nbsp;
achieving central fixation of the eyes.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:44.800,0:00:49.920
As I’ve mentioned earlier, the biological&nbsp;
miracle that I have long been working with</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:49.920,0:00:56.480
is the skeletal codes of instant central&nbsp;
fixation of the eyes, the body and the mind.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:57.120,0:01:04.240
Let me tell you another story, a recent&nbsp;
one that reinforces my above statement.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:04.240,0:01:10.240
The Story of Activating A So-called&nbsp;
Impossible Visual Accommodation</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:10.240,0:01:13.920
“I seem to have cracked its code.”</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:13.920,0:01:19.040
This was what I said to my ophthalmological&nbsp;
surgeon who was preparing to start a surgery</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:19.040,0:01:24.800
for my cataract removal. I got&nbsp;
my cataract removed in 2022.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:25.440,0:01:31.600
I said to my surgeon again as he had&nbsp;
not yet replied, “I think I have cracked</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:31.600,0:01:38.240
the code of central fixation of the eyes.”
It was a few seconds before lying down on the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:38.240,0:01:45.200
operation table that I spoke these words.
This time, he looked at me and replied,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:45.200,0:01:51.760
“Right now, I am not listening to you.”
He added, “I am in my pre-surgery trance.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:51.760,0:01:57.040
We will discuss it&nbsp;once the&nbsp;
surgery is successfully completed.”</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:57.040,0:02:04.800
It was a Tuesday. A few days prior, I had met&nbsp;
him in his clinic. I had asked him to replace</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:04.800,0:02:11.520
my clouded natural crystalline lens with an&nbsp;
intraocular lens of the same diopter power.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:12.240,0:02:18.160
The normal procedure of cataract surgery simply&nbsp;
removes the clouded natural lenses in the eyes</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:18.160,0:02:25.280
and replaces them with artificial clear lenses.&nbsp;
These natural lenses which get clouded owing to</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:25.280,0:02:32.960
protein coagulation with age are called natural&nbsp;
crystalline lenses. The artificial clear lenses</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:32.960,0:02:40.880
that replace them are called intraocular lenses.&nbsp;
It is a very simple, 10-minute surgical procedure</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:40.880,0:02:48.000
though it does demand impeccable precision from&nbsp;
the surgeon. And, as per modern ophthalmology,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:48.000,0:02:54.240
since these intraocular lenses cannot fatten like&nbsp;
natural crystalline lenses, they cannot help in</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:54.240,0:03:01.200
reading at close proximity when they are optimized&nbsp;
for distant vision. Hence they require reading</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:01.200,0:03:08.800
glasses employing presbyopic convex lenses.
“Why?” he asked while replying to my request to</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:08.800,0:03:16.000
replace my clouded natural crystalline lens with&nbsp;
an intraocular lens of the same diopter power,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:16.000,0:03:21.120
“Why wouldn’t we optimize it for&nbsp;
your distant vision, if so needed?”</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:21.120,0:03:26.160
“It’s because I am doing some experiments with&nbsp;
the errors of refraction in my eyes. I don’t</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:26.160,0:03:32.160
want those to get disturbed at all. I believe&nbsp;
I have already cured my lifelong myopia with</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:32.160,0:03:38.240
central fixation. But even if your optometric&nbsp;
machines find there are some traces left,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:38.240,0:03:44.320
I would prefer to be left with them. I just&nbsp;
don’t want my research to get disturbed by you</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:44.320,0:03:52.240
optimizing my eyes for distant vision,” I said.
“But I find it unethical. We normally optimize</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:52.240,0:03:56.880
it for distant vision with intraocular&nbsp;
lenses. And then we provide you with</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:56.880,0:04:04.240
outside lenses for near vision,” he retorted
“How does it become unethical? Especially</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:04.240,0:04:11.360
if I am ready to use outside lenses for&nbsp;
distant vision as well, if need be?” I said.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:11.360,0:04:18.800
He looked at me with a puzzled expression as&nbsp;
no one else had ever asked this to him before.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:18.800,0:04:24.240
I added, “Moreover, you may optimize my distant&nbsp;
vision by changing the diopter power of the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:24.240,0:04:30.800
intraocular lenses. But, then, I will no more&nbsp;
be able to read near as clearly as I do right</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:30.800,0:04:38.560
now. I read at close proximity perfectly&nbsp;
well without using any presbyopic lenses.”</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:38.560,0:04:44.000
He immediately interrupted me, “Don’t be under the&nbsp;
impression that you will be able to do that with</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:44.000,0:04:50.560
intraocular lenses. Right now, you are somehow&nbsp;
still doing it as you have natural crystalline</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:50.560,0:04:57.840
lenses in your eyes. But intraocular lenses are&nbsp;
just inanimate matter and not animate like your</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:57.840,0:05:04.960
natural crystalline lenses. They will simply not&nbsp;
let you see near clear as you cannot manipulate</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:04.960,0:05:12.640
them at all. You will need a pair of near&nbsp;
vision glasses after the surgery in any case.”</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:12.640,0:05:18.240
“I will still like to use a pair of outside&nbsp;
glasses for correcting my distant vision. That is,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:18.240,0:05:24.640
in case I still have traces of myopia left&nbsp;
in my eyes. But I would never like my distant</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:24.640,0:05:30.160
vision to be optimized within my eyes. It will&nbsp;
disturb the research that I am doing through</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:30.160,0:05:37.040
experiments with central fixation to eradicate&nbsp;
all errors of refraction. And it’s not unethical</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:37.040,0:05:44.400
if I prefer outside lenses to inside ones.&nbsp;
Am I not right?” I asked him challenging his</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:44.400,0:05:50.560
notion of ophthalmological ethics.
My logic convinced him that what I</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:50.560,0:05:55.840
was asking for was not unethical. I&nbsp;
just wanted my natural crystalline</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:55.840,0:06:02.720
lenses replaced with intraocular lenses of&nbsp;
exactly the same diopter power as before.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:03.280,0:06:08.720
He agreed. And I took a sigh of relief&nbsp;
as it was a question of my entire</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:08.720,0:06:15.360
research getting wasted otherwise.
All my preliminary tests including</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:15.360,0:06:21.360
ophthalmological and physiological status got&nbsp;
checked. A day before the surgery, the surgeon</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:21.360,0:06:27.600
informed me that everything was alright. He&nbsp;
said my natural crystalline lenses would be</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:27.600,0:06:35.520
replaced with intraocular lenses of diopter&nbsp;
power +18.5. It was exactly the same diopter</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:35.520,0:06:45.200
power that my natural crystalline lenses had.
On Tuesday, 15 February 2022, my right eye got</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:45.200,0:06:51.200
operated on. As soon as the surgery got&nbsp;
completed, the surgeon asked me to open</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:51.200,0:06:58.800
my eyes. As I complied, I immediately saw&nbsp;
everything much brighter as well as crystal</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:58.800,0:07:05.200
clear in the field of my vision. It had gotten&nbsp;
brighter owing to the surgery done on my eye.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:05.200,0:07:11.040
And as far as clarity of vision was concerned,&nbsp;
replacing my natural crystalline lens with</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:11.040,0:07:17.600
the intraocular lens of the same diopter&nbsp;
power had left no negative effect on it.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:18.320,0:07:23.280
It was a moment of extreme elation&nbsp;
for me. Not optimizing my vision</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:23.280,0:07:33.680
for distance had shown its favorable result.
The next day, on Wednesday, 16 February 2022,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:33.680,0:07:41.280
my left eye got operated with similar results.
As soon as both my eyes got intraocular lenses</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:41.280,0:07:46.960
inserted in them, I went impatient. I&nbsp;
could not stop my temptation of trying</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:46.960,0:07:54.000
to read near with them. And lo! To the utter&nbsp;
astonishment of my surgeon as well as of mine,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:54.000,0:08:04.400
I was able to read everything close clearly too.
The next day, on Thursday, 17 February 2022,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:04.400,0:08:10.240
my vision was officially tested&nbsp;
for distance and for near reading.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:10.240,0:08:14.880
Each eye was individually tested&nbsp;
separately. Both of them recorded</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:15.440,0:08:23.440
20/20 vision for distance and N6 for near reading.
I asked my surgeon how he would explain this in</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:23.440,0:08:30.160
light of the accommodation process theorized by&nbsp;
German ophthalmology. According to this theory,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:30.160,0:08:37.120
it should have been impossible for me&nbsp;
to read near, especially with N6 acuity.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:37.120,0:08:42.400
He simply raised his hands in utter&nbsp;
astonishment, saying, “I just don’t know</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:42.400,0:08:49.760
how you are reading near so clear.”
It was a miracle, so to say.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:49.760,0:08:55.360
I asked him if I was his first patient not&nbsp;
requiring near vision glasses from him after</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:55.360,0:09:04.800
cataract removal surgery. He said I was, indeed,&nbsp;
the only one to do so through his entire career.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:04.800,0:09:09.520
The Real Scientific Process&nbsp;
of Visual Accommodation</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:09.520,0:09:18.560
The question was how on earth I was able to see&nbsp;
near so clear with inanimate lenses in my eyes.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:18.560,0:09:23.520
There was only one way in which it&nbsp;
could be explained scientifically.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:24.160,0:09:31.440
It was that I was able to elongate my eyeball in&nbsp;
order to see clear while reading near. And then,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:31.440,0:09:37.600
I was able to turn it back to near&nbsp;
spherical while seeing at a distance.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:37.600,0:09:42.800
According to this explanation, the lens&nbsp;
has no role to play in the process of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:42.800,0:09:49.680
accommodation. It is the eyeball that&nbsp;
effects and controls accommodation.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:49.680,0:09:52.880
It was about a hundred years ago that Dr.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:52.880,0:09:59.040
W. H. Bates had propounded the&nbsp;
same. Here is a quote from him:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:59.040,0:10:05.360
During more than thirty years of clinical&nbsp;
experience, I have not observed a single fact that</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:05.360,0:10:11.040
was not in harmony with the belief that the lens&nbsp;
and the ciliary muscle have nothing to do with</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:11.040,0:10:17.680
accommodation and that the changes in the shape&nbsp;
of the eyeball upon which errors of refraction</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:17.680,0:10:24.560
depend are not permanent. My clinical observations&nbsp;
have of themselves been sufficient to demonstrate</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:24.560,0:10:31.680
this fact. They have also been sufficient to show&nbsp;
how errors of refraction can be produced at will,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:31.680,0:10:39.120
and how they may be cured, temporarily in a few&nbsp;
minutes, and permanently by continued treatment.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:39.120,0:10:46.320</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:52.480,0:10:58.000
of them are ‘oblique’ muscles and the other&nbsp;
four are ‘recti’. The two oblique muscles</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:58.000,0:11:03.600
are there in the shape of a belt around the&nbsp;
middle of the eyeball. The muscle above is</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:03.600,0:11:11.360
called ‘superior’ and the one below, ‘inferior’.
The four recti muscles pass along the depth of the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:11.360,0:11:19.840
eyeball at the top, bottom, left and right sides.&nbsp;
They are attached to the sclerotic coat at one end</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:19.840,0:11:26.160
and the bone surrounding the optic nerve at the&nbsp;
other. These four muscles at the top, bottom, left</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:26.160,0:11:34.800
and right sides of the eyeball are ‘superior’,&nbsp;
‘inferior’, ‘internal’ and “external” recti.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:34.800,0:11:40.400
When we contract the oblique muscles,&nbsp;
the eyes can easily read near.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:40.400,0:11:44.480
But when this constriction becomes&nbsp;
unconsciously habitual, the eyes</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:44.480,0:11:51.200
cannot see clear at a distance. This condition&nbsp;
is called myopia and is generally combined with</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:51.200,0:11:58.240
astigmatism which means different levels of&nbsp;
constriction in various circular degrees.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:58.240,0:12:02.240
Also, when recti muscles are&nbsp;
kept constricted habitually,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:02.240,0:12:09.840
the eyes are not able to read at close proximity&nbsp;
clearly. Letters go blurred as in hyperopia and</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:09.840,0:12:17.360
presbyopia, and distorted as in astigmatism.
When the crown chakra and the third eye chakra</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:17.360,0:12:24.240
are blocked, these are the muscles that get&nbsp;
affected first. Thereafter, the rest of them,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:24.240,0:12:32.320
including those in the jaws, on the eyebrows,&nbsp;
and around temporomandibular joints get affected.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:32.320,0:12:37.920
Surprisingly, there is a direct physiological&nbsp;
connection between the muscles on the eyeballs</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:37.920,0:12:45.600
and the rest of muscles in the skull! The major&nbsp;
ones among them are the muscles named frontalis,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:45.600,0:12:52.560
temporalis and occipitalis. By relaxing these&nbsp;
three muscles via maneuvering the mandible,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:52.560,0:13:00.480
we can relax the muscles on the eyeballs as well.
Once that is done, we can achieve full voluntary</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:00.480,0:13:07.200
control on the entire process of accommodation.&nbsp;
This is how we can achieve central fixation of the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:07.200,0:13:16.560
eyes and get rid of all the errors of refraction.
The Role That Dr. Bates Played A Hundred Years Ago</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:16.560,0:13:24.480
Around a hundred years ago in the year 1920, Dr.&nbsp;
W. H. Bates, an ophthalmologist published a book.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:24.480,0:13:31.440
It was titled “The Cure of Imperfect Sight&nbsp;
by Treatment without Glasses”. The book was</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:31.440,0:13:38.240
an account of his case studies which involved&nbsp;
curing the vision of people and enabling them</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:38.240,0:13:44.480
to get rid of their glasses. It was also a&nbsp;
logical analysis of how vision goes bad in</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:44.480,0:13:51.520
the first place and how to cure it. With his&nbsp;
analysis, he happened to challenge mainstream</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:51.520,0:13:58.800
ophthalmology on its theoretical premises.
Mainstream ophthalmology had always maintained</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:58.800,0:14:05.440
that vision, once gone bad, could never be&nbsp;
cured. It still maintains the same premise</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:05.440,0:14:12.640
to date. Hence it considers wearing glasses as&nbsp;
the primary solution. It has also come up with</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:12.640,0:14:21.280
its surgical derivative named LASIK. In LASIK,&nbsp;
they sculpt the cornea in the shape of a lens as</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:21.280,0:14:27.760
per the vision prescription. It simply turns the&nbsp;
cornea into an additional lens in front of the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:27.760,0:14:35.920
eye’s main lens without wearing glasses. Not a big&nbsp;
deal! It is rather ineffective in certain cases,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:35.920,0:14:41.600
especially in the long run. I know many&nbsp;
such people whose errors of refraction</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:41.600,0:14:49.120
returned a few years after getting LASIK done.
But mainstream ophthalmology chose not to respond</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:49.120,0:14:57.760
to Dr. Bates’ challenge. It rather chose to ignore&nbsp;
him in an attempt to isolate and ridicule him.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:57.760,0:15:04.640
The question that arises is why, after all,&nbsp;
mainstream ophthalmology chose to ignore its</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:04.640,0:15:11.920
own comrade. Was it just because it thought he&nbsp;
was doing something nonsensical? Far from it,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:11.920,0:15:19.680
his questions were not illogical. Quite to the&nbsp;
contrary, he was getting positive results! Why,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:19.680,0:15:24.880
then, did his own parent organization&nbsp;
ignore him like a step child?</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:24.880,0:15:32.160
The answer, as often is the case, was a&nbsp;
conflict of interests between the two.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:32.160,0:15:37.920
And mainstream ophthalmology continues that&nbsp;
same antagonistic approach toward his research</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:37.920,0:15:45.600
and findings at the time of delivering&nbsp;
this podcast…even almost a century later!</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:45.600,0:15:50.400
What would mainstream ophthalmology&nbsp;
gain from this antagonism?</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:50.400,0:15:57.600
The answer seems to lie in a covert conspiracy as&nbsp;
such. It is possibly scared of losing a luxurious</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:57.600,0:16:04.080
business that it is the sole beneficiary&nbsp;
of. Modern ophthalmology is a gigantic,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:04.080,0:16:10.560
multi-billion-dollar industry.
Here are two quotes to underline it:</p>

Perhaps, none of this industry’s gatekeepers want&nbsp;
to kill the proverbial golden-egg-laying duck?</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:06.560,0:17:11.920
Dr. W. H. Bates ignored his isolation&nbsp;
by mainstream ophthalmology. He went</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:11.920,0:17:17.600
on treating his patients. And, by the&nbsp;
time he died in 1931, he had already</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:17.600,0:17:25.040
cured thousands of them. They had gotten rid of&nbsp;
their glasses as they didn’t need them anymore.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:25.040,0:17:31.600
After his death, many volunteers took up&nbsp;
his work and continued treating patients.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:31.600,0:17:38.720
It has now become an institution in itself that&nbsp;
promotes alternative ophthalmology, defying the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:38.720,0:17:45.920
mainstream authority. These volunteers have kept&nbsp;
Bates’ legacy alive through almost a century after</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:45.920,0:17:55.280
his death. The Bates Method, as it is famous&nbsp;
now, has sculpted a strong niche for itself.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:55.280,0:18:02.080
But there is a problem here. The Bates Method,&nbsp;
in general, is very slow in improving vision.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:02.080,0:18:06.960
Very few people afflicted with errors of&nbsp;
refraction in their faulty eyes have that</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:06.960,0:18:14.400
kind of patience. They find wearing glasses&nbsp;
a ready-made solution and surrender to it.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:14.400,0:18:20.160
They don’t know that, by wearing glasses, they&nbsp;
are forcing their eyes to keep seeing through them</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:20.160,0:18:26.640
for life. An eye must keep seeing inherently&nbsp;
wrong in order to see clear from behind the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:26.640,0:18:34.560
lens fitted on it. Therefore, they kill any&nbsp;
probability of vision improvement for good.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:34.560,0:18:41.440
How I Was Able to Change Bates Method of Central&nbsp;
Fixation from A Mental Procedure to A Physical One</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:41.440,0:18:48.560
As far back as my early childhood, I was diagnosed&nbsp;
with myopia. My left eye required a lens of minus</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:48.560,0:18:56.000
5 diopter to see clear. Luckily, my right&nbsp;
eye was 20/20. So my optometrist gave me a</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:56.000,0:19:01.760
pair of glasses which I never liked wearing.&nbsp;
I could see things with my right eye without</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:01.760,0:19:08.800
any problem. Hence I put my glasses in the&nbsp;
drawer of my table and never took them out.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:08.800,0:19:16.160
A few years passed. I finished my engineering&nbsp;
studies and got appointed to a government job.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:16.160,0:19:19.120
I was instructed to get my&nbsp;
physical examination done</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:19.120,0:19:24.240
in a specified government hospital&nbsp;
before I would begin on the job. So,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:24.240,0:19:31.520
I went for it, aware of the fact that one&nbsp;
of my eyes needed a minus 5 diopter lens.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:31.520,0:19:37.360
But I was in for both a pleasant and&nbsp;
an unpleasant shock at the same time!</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:37.360,0:19:44.800
The doctor told me that both my eyes had&nbsp;
myopia requiring minus 2.25 diopter lenses.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:45.600,0:19:54.000
The world went upside down as well as downside up&nbsp;
for me. My normal 20/20 vision in my right eye had</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:54.000,0:20:01.600
deteriorated to require minus 2.25 diopter&nbsp;
lens to see clear. But my faulty eye had</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:01.600,0:20:11.280
spontaneously improved itself from requiring minus&nbsp;
5 diopter lens to just minus 2.25 diopter now.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:11.280,0:20:17.040
How did my eyes manage to do so on their own&nbsp;
without my conscious awareness of it? It was</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:17.040,0:20:21.760
against the very basic premise upon&nbsp;
which all of mainstream ophthalmology</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:21.760,0:20:27.120
had structured its existence.
According to Jessica Lewis,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:27.120,0:20:34.560
optometrist from Illinois College of Optometry:
Not wearing glasses, also, cannot change the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:34.560,0:20:40.480
shape of your eye, so if you stop wearing&nbsp;
glasses, you will not make it so that you</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:40.480,0:20:47.200
don‘t need glasses and you will not make&nbsp;
it so that your vision returns to normal.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:47.200,0:20:53.200
How can, then, mainstream ophthalmology explain&nbsp;
the reversal of my eyesight from minus 5 diopter</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:53.200,0:20:59.280
to minus 2.25 diopter?
It can’t.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:59.280,0:21:05.440
Anyway, I lived up to the age of 53 with both&nbsp;
of my eyes requiring correction by minus 2.25</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:06.160,0:21:13.440
diopter lenses. That&nbsp;was before I accidentally&nbsp;
stumbled upon a spontaneous and instantaneous</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:13.440,0:21:20.960
clarity of vision one day. Later, I researched&nbsp;
the phenomenon to understand it in depth and</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:20.960,0:21:27.840
how to achieve it at will and sustainably.
Earlier, I had mentioned that the Bates Method</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:27.840,0:21:32.960
was slow to provide even the first&nbsp;
flashes of clear vision. At times,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:32.960,0:21:39.840
it was instantaneous but, in general, it&nbsp;
took a long time to do so. I was looking</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:39.840,0:21:46.160
for something in the procedure that would make&nbsp;
it instantaneous as well as measurable. Here,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:46.160,0:21:53.680
by instantaneous, I mean a single session of&nbsp;
a few hours. Even if it is not full clarity,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:53.680,0:22:01.360
the amount of clarity gained should be measurable.&nbsp;
Measurability would enable such a&nbsp;procedure to get</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:01.360,0:22:08.720
verified under the test conditions that mainstream&nbsp;
ophthalmology would, no doubt, insist on.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:08.720,0:22:13.600
And this is what the Bates Method,&nbsp;
despite being a brilliant procedure,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:13.600,0:22:20.160
is lacking. It can’t generate measurable&nbsp;
improvements in a single session. Hence,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:20.160,0:22:26.880
it could never decisively pass the challenge of&nbsp;
strict scrutiny done under laboratory conditions.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:28.320,0:22:34.560
It was because Bates had positioned his method&nbsp;
around relaxation of the mind in order to relax</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:34.560,0:22:41.920
the eyes. In relaxing the mind and the eyes, his&nbsp;
basic purpose was to attain the central fixation</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:41.920,0:22:49.040
of the mind. The central fixation of the mind&nbsp;
led to the central fixation of the eyes. It meant</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:49.040,0:22:56.240
focusing at a single point in the field of vision&nbsp;
so that it made its image exactly at the fovea.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:57.360,0:23:02.240
Bates contended that central fixation&nbsp;
of the eyes was not achievable without</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:02.240,0:23:09.280
achieving central fixation of the mind.
As I have mentioned earlier, the mind is a very</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:09.280,0:23:17.200
vague entity. It has processes inside it that are&nbsp;
intangible, meaning you can’t measure them. And,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:17.200,0:23:24.560
if you can’t measure a thing, you can’t be sure&nbsp;
of its objective existence, nor of its strength.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:24.560,0:23:31.600
You cannot say with 100% surety that you are going&nbsp;
the right way. You can’t even be sure of how much</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:31.600,0:23:39.840
of it you need to achieve the desired results.
At times they may click but rarely so. So, you</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:39.840,0:23:47.120
need to keep making trials and errors until you&nbsp;
can hit the target. It takes time, and at times,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:47.120,0:23:56.800
a lot of it. Not to mention, you can’t even create&nbsp;
them instantly and at will with 100% surety.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:56.800,0:24:03.680
This is what makes the Bates Method unreliable.
But, if we approach this from the perspective</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:03.680,0:24:11.120
of physical effects, it all becomes solid and&nbsp;
tangible. And they are not always the effects. At</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:11.120,0:24:18.560
times, they may be the cause to begin with. We can&nbsp;
pinpoint them. We can even measure them. Hence,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:18.560,0:24:27.120
we are more in control of them. That is why we&nbsp;
can activate them instantly and to their fullest.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:27.120,0:24:32.080
This was what I did with the Bates Method&nbsp;
when it came to achieving central fixation</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:32.080,0:24:39.040
of the eyes. I just changed its direction.&nbsp;
Bates had directed it from central fixation</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:39.040,0:24:44.560
of the mind to the central fixation of the&nbsp;
eyes. I changed it from central fixation of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:44.560,0:24:51.600
the eyes to the central fixation of the mind.
I did a lot of research on how chakras affected</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:51.600,0:24:58.880
the anatomy and the physiology of our body. As you&nbsp;
might know already, the description&nbsp;and approach</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:58.880,0:25:06.000
to chakras in ancient scriptures is deeply&nbsp;
embedded in the spiritual arena. Their shallow,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:06.000,0:25:13.680
modern-day interpretations follow suit without&nbsp;
even understanding what spirituality really means.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:13.680,0:25:19.600
With their mysterious-sounding descriptions,&nbsp;
these misplaced interpretations have tended</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:19.600,0:25:26.400
to turn chakras into an esoteric discipline.
I aimed at understanding the physical effect of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:26.400,0:25:34.560
chakras at different parts of our body, i.e.,&nbsp;
on its nerves and musculature. Spirituality,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:34.560,0:25:42.880
like the mind, is not a concrete entity; it is&nbsp;
rather even vaguer than the mind. It is esoteric.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:44.080,0:25:50.240
Central Fixation Is Instantly Achievable&nbsp;
through Skeletal Chakra Meditation</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:50.240,0:25:57.040
Consequently, what I did with chakras was&nbsp;
exactly what I had done with the mind. I</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:57.040,0:26:02.560
addressed the issues associated with chakras&nbsp;
from the perspective of their effects on the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:02.560,0:26:08.560
body. For all we know, these so-called&nbsp;
effects might actually be the culprits</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:08.560,0:26:16.240
causing those issues in the first place!
Since body and spirit, like body and mind,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:16.240,0:26:22.080
are two sides of the same coin, the&nbsp;
former affects the latter as well. It</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:22.080,0:26:29.280
is exactly the way in which the latter had&nbsp;
affected the former before, if at all so.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:29.280,0:26:35.760
This approach enabled me to discover that central&nbsp;
fixation of the eyes was exactly what third eye</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:35.760,0:26:41.360
and crown chakra meditation achieved.
Opening the third eye and the crown</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:41.360,0:26:48.640
chakras meant achieving central fixation of the&nbsp;
eyes along with central fixation of the mind.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:48.640,0:26:56.560
I could now pinpoint it and activate it instantly&nbsp;
to its fullest by measuring it properly. And</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:56.560,0:27:03.840
the best thing was I could do it at will!
Of course, it does require some time to open</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:03.840,0:27:09.280
the third eye and the crown chakras through&nbsp;
third eye and crown chakra meditation. It is</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:09.280,0:27:16.320
because the muscles in its vicinity need time to&nbsp;
loosen up their age-old rigidity. Once they have</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:16.320,0:27:23.760
done that, the eyes start seeing perfectly&nbsp;
without any artificial aid worn upon them.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:23.760,0:27:30.320
Achieving central fixation through opening all&nbsp;
7 chakras is not only about vision correction.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:30.320,0:27:36.480
Vision correction is merely an indication that we&nbsp;
are on the right track in our journey toward Homo</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:36.480,0:27:44.400
sapiens evolution as a whole. It leads us to a&nbsp;
perfect state of biological, mental and spiritual</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:44.400,0:27:52.240
health, replete with the flow of cosmic (or&nbsp;
biological) energy through us. It enables us to be</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:52.240,0:27:59.920
in peace with ourselves individually, paving the&nbsp;
way toward creating a peaceful world around us.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:59.920,0:28:07.440
It fills us with intelligent insights to mend&nbsp;
our deteriorating sociocultural institutions and,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:07.440,0:28:16.160
then, to create a colorful world around us.&nbsp;
In short, it paves the way to heaven on earth!</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:16.160,0:28:21.920
My central fixation boosted my immunity to&nbsp;
an extent that enabled me to live together</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:21.920,0:28:28.800
with my Covid-19-infected family without&nbsp;
ever contracting the virus myself. Though</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:28.800,0:28:36.240
unvaccinated, my innate immunity saved me from&nbsp;
catching it even from such close vicinity.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:36.240,0:28:41.920
Third eye and crown chakra meditation,&nbsp;
or central fixation, not only clarifies</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:41.920,0:28:49.520
eyesight but also benefits the body, the mind&nbsp;
and the spirit in the following additional ways:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:49.520,0:28:58.520
Immunity Boost | Headache Eradication | Depression&nbsp;
Alleviation | Anxiety Eradication | Enhanced Focus</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:58.520,0:29:07.360
| Deeper &amp; Slower Breathing | Improved Circulation&nbsp;
| Stronger Heart | Faster Assimilation | Improved</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:07.360,0:29:15.120
Digestion | Smoother Excretion | Hormonal&nbsp;
Balance | Autoimmune Diseases Eradication</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:15.840,0:29:22.960
I would even venture to say that third eye and&nbsp;
crown chakra meditation or central fixation is</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:22.960,0:29:29.680
not, as Aldous Huxley would say, ‘The Art&nbsp;
of Seeing’ alone. It is actually ‘The Art</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:29.680,0:29:37.920
of Healing’ the body, the mind and the spirit.
Whenever the mind is not in a meditative state,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:37.920,0:29:43.040
it does something detrimental&nbsp;
to the body. As a result,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:43.040,0:29:50.400
the body constricts some specific muscles that&nbsp;
are meant to be relaxed and loosens some others</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:50.400,0:29:57.280
that are meant to be kept contracted. With&nbsp;
the continuation of such a mental state,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:57.280,0:30:04.480
the body keeps those muscles constricted or&nbsp;
loosened for long. With the passage of time,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:04.480,0:30:11.040
these muscles habituate themselves in those&nbsp;
same erroneously constricted or loosened states.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:12.400,0:30:20.240
And, with the further passage of time, the said&nbsp;
constriction or loosening turns unconscious. The</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:20.240,0:30:27.680
affected muscles lose their range of flexibility.&nbsp;
They start giving a message to the mind that they</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:27.680,0:30:35.120
are not making any effort. And the fact is that&nbsp;
they really start perceiving their constricted or</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:35.120,0:30:42.080
loosened disposition as relaxation. They don’t&nbsp;
even realize that this is a serious reduction</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:42.080,0:30:50.320
in their own innate range of flexibility. They&nbsp;
start assuming as if the range was always limited.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:50.320,0:30:56.400
We can decide to bring the affected muscles&nbsp;
back to their relaxed state, but they resist</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:56.400,0:31:03.520
doing so. So, we need to pull them out of this&nbsp;
unconscious habitual constriction or loosening</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:03.520,0:31:11.120
by stretching or contracting them out and up. The&nbsp;
constricted or loosened muscles perceive it as an</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:11.120,0:31:19.920
effort and hence feel pseudo-tired in the process.
However, if we show perseverance and continue to</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:19.920,0:31:25.440
stretch or contract the affected muscles&nbsp;
out of their constriction or loosening,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:25.440,0:31:32.720
they listen. And they listen because their&nbsp;
unconscious memory - what is often referred to</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:32.720,0:31:40.240
as “muscle memory” - gives them a feeling of doing&nbsp;
something right. With the passage of time, they</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:40.240,0:31:48.160
start regaining their lost flexibility and range.
Muscles do take their time to get rid of their</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:48.160,0:31:53.680
constricted rigidity or loosened&nbsp;
lethargy. Once they have done it,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:53.680,0:32:01.120
the entire body-mind system comes back to its&nbsp;
natural, spontaneous state. With that, the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:32:01.120,0:32:08.800
purpose of said meditation is achieved. Thereon,&nbsp;
we only need to ensure that we don’t repeat the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:32:08.800,0:32:15.440
old habits in the body or the mind again.
So, which muscles go rigid and which ones go</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:32:15.440,0:32:21.200
lethargic when vision gets compromised,&nbsp;
be it for distance or near reading?</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:32:22.000,0:32:27.680
These are the muscles in the vicinity of the&nbsp;
third eye and the crown chakras. In fact,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:32:27.680,0:32:34.400
the crown chakra is a widening of&nbsp;
a narrow third eye chakra by 270o.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:32:34.400,0:32:39.280
Central fixation, through the opening of&nbsp;
chakras, not only improves our vision and</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:32:39.280,0:32:44.560
changes our physiological systems,&nbsp;
it also changes us as a person.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:32:45.200,0:32:51.360
At that point, we will already have taken&nbsp;
an important step toward Skeletal Leap into</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:32:51.360,0:32:57.840
the next major Homo sapiens evolution.&nbsp;
What is left is to activate the rising</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:32:57.840,0:33:05.760
of energy from the gut to the brain. And&nbsp;
this is where we enter the realm of breath.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:33:05.760,0:33:12.000
Thanks for listening to this episode&nbsp;
of Skeletal Leap: A Living Adventure!</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:33:12.000,0:33:17.200
In the next episode, I will tell&nbsp;
you about emptying the mind via</p>

breathing energy and breathing&nbsp;
insight with every single breath.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Welcome back to the 25th episode of Skeletal Leap: A Living Adventure!</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Today’s episode titled “<strong>Eye Training for Crystal Clear Eye Vision NOW!</strong>” will tell you about an unintended evidence strengthening the skeletal chakra hypothesis via achieving central fixation of the eyes.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">As I’ve mentioned earlier, the biological miracle that I have long been working with is the skeletal codes of instant central fixation of the eyes, the body and the mind.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Mainstream ophthalmology had always maintained that vision, once gone bad, could never be cured.</p>





<p class="wp-block-paragraph">SKELETAL LEAP, the mind body connection for mind and body healing, is a giant leap that our <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skeleton" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">skeleton</a> can take through the way it postures its joints.</p>



<p class="p1 wp-block-paragraph">I had stumbled upon this miracle many years ago, coincidentally</p>

Central fixation, through the opening of chakras,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:03.920,0:00:08.400
not only improves our vision and&nbsp;
changes our physiological systems,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:08.400,0:00:24.800
it also changes us as a person.
My name is Laadi Ojas. Welcome</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:24.800,0:00:34.160
to “Skeletal Leap: A Living Adventure”. Skeletal&nbsp;
Leap transforms one’s life into a personal heaven.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:34.160,0:00:38.480
Today’s episode will tell you about&nbsp;
an unintended evidence strengthening</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:38.480,0:00:44.800
the skeletal chakra hypothesis via&nbsp;
achieving central fixation of the eyes.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:44.800,0:00:49.920
As I’ve mentioned earlier, the biological&nbsp;
miracle that I have long been working with</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:49.920,0:00:56.480
is the skeletal codes of instant central&nbsp;
fixation of the eyes, the body and the mind.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:57.120,0:01:04.240
Let me tell you another story, a recent&nbsp;
one that reinforces my above statement.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:04.240,0:01:10.240
The Story of Activating A So-called&nbsp;
Impossible Visual Accommodation</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:10.240,0:01:13.920
“I seem to have cracked its code.”</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:13.920,0:01:19.040
This was what I said to my ophthalmological&nbsp;
surgeon who was preparing to start a surgery</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:19.040,0:01:24.800
for my cataract removal. I got&nbsp;
my cataract removed in 2022.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:25.440,0:01:31.600
I said to my surgeon again as he had&nbsp;
not yet replied, “I think I have cracked</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:31.600,0:01:38.240
the code of central fixation of the eyes.”
It was a few seconds before lying down on the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:38.240,0:01:45.200
operation table that I spoke these words.
This time, he looked at me and replied,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:45.200,0:01:51.760
“Right now, I am not listening to you.”
He added, “I am in my pre-surgery trance.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:51.760,0:01:57.040
We will discuss it&nbsp;once the&nbsp;
surgery is successfully completed.”</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:57.040,0:02:04.800
It was a Tuesday. A few days prior, I had met&nbsp;
him in his clinic. I had asked him to replace</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:04.800,0:02:11.520
my clouded natural crystalline lens with an&nbsp;
intraocular lens of the same diopter power.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:12.240,0:02:18.160
The normal procedure of cataract surgery simply&nbsp;
removes the clouded natural lenses in the eyes</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:18.160,0:02:25.280
and replaces them with artificial clear lenses.&nbsp;
These natural lenses which get clouded owing to</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:25.280,0:02:32.960
protein coagulation with age are called natural&nbsp;
crystalline lenses. The artificial clear lenses</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:32.960,0:02:40.880
that replace them are called intraocular lenses.&nbsp;
It is a very simple, 10-minute surgical procedure</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:40.880,0:02:48.000
though it does demand impeccable precision from&nbsp;
the surgeon. And, as per modern ophthalmology,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:48.000,0:02:54.240
since these intraocular lenses cannot fatten like&nbsp;
natural crystalline lenses, they cannot help in</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:54.240,0:03:01.200
reading at close proximity when they are optimized&nbsp;
for distant vision. Hence they require reading</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:01.200,0:03:08.800
glasses employing presbyopic convex lenses.
“Why?” he asked while replying to my request to</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:08.800,0:03:16.000
replace my clouded natural crystalline lens with&nbsp;
an intraocular lens of the same diopter power,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:16.000,0:03:21.120
“Why wouldn’t we optimize it for&nbsp;
your distant vision, if so needed?”</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:21.120,0:03:26.160
“It’s because I am doing some experiments with&nbsp;
the errors of refraction in my eyes. I don’t</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:26.160,0:03:32.160
want those to get disturbed at all. I believe&nbsp;
I have already cured my lifelong myopia with</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:32.160,0:03:38.240
central fixation. But even if your optometric&nbsp;
machines find there are some traces left,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:38.240,0:03:44.320
I would prefer to be left with them. I just&nbsp;
don’t want my research to get disturbed by you</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:44.320,0:03:52.240
optimizing my eyes for distant vision,” I said.
“But I find it unethical. We normally optimize</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:52.240,0:03:56.880
it for distant vision with intraocular&nbsp;
lenses. And then we provide you with</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:56.880,0:04:04.240
outside lenses for near vision,” he retorted
“How does it become unethical? Especially</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:04.240,0:04:11.360
if I am ready to use outside lenses for&nbsp;
distant vision as well, if need be?” I said.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:11.360,0:04:18.800
He looked at me with a puzzled expression as&nbsp;
no one else had ever asked this to him before.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:18.800,0:04:24.240
I added, “Moreover, you may optimize my distant&nbsp;
vision by changing the diopter power of the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:24.240,0:04:30.800
intraocular lenses. But, then, I will no more&nbsp;
be able to read near as clearly as I do right</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:30.800,0:04:38.560
now. I read at close proximity perfectly&nbsp;
well without using any presbyopic lenses.”</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:38.560,0:04:44.000
He immediately interrupted me, “Don’t be under the&nbsp;
impression that you will be able to do that with</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:44.000,0:04:50.560
intraocular lenses. Right now, you are somehow&nbsp;
still doing it as you have natural crystalline</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:50.560,0:04:57.840
lenses in your eyes. But intraocular lenses are&nbsp;
just inanimate matter and not animate like your</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:57.840,0:05:04.960
natural crystalline lenses. They will simply not&nbsp;
let you see near clear as you cannot manipulate</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:04.960,0:05:12.640
them at all. You will need a pair of near&nbsp;
vision glasses after the surgery in any case.”</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:12.640,0:05:18.240
“I will still like to use a pair of outside&nbsp;
glasses for correcting my distant vision. That is,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:18.240,0:05:24.640
in case I still have traces of myopia left&nbsp;
in my eyes. But I would never like my distant</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:24.640,0:05:30.160
vision to be optimized within my eyes. It will&nbsp;
disturb the research that I am doing through</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:30.160,0:05:37.040
experiments with central fixation to eradicate&nbsp;
all errors of refraction. And it’s not unethical</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:37.040,0:05:44.400
if I prefer outside lenses to inside ones.&nbsp;
Am I not right?” I asked him challenging his</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:44.400,0:05:50.560
notion of ophthalmological ethics.
My logic convinced him that what I</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:50.560,0:05:55.840
was asking for was not unethical. I&nbsp;
just wanted my natural crystalline</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:55.840,0:06:02.720
lenses replaced with intraocular lenses of&nbsp;
exactly the same diopter power as before.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:03.280,0:06:08.720
He agreed. And I took a sigh of relief&nbsp;
as it was a question of my entire</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:08.720,0:06:15.360
research getting wasted otherwise.
All my preliminary tests including</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:15.360,0:06:21.360
ophthalmological and physiological status got&nbsp;
checked. A day before the surgery, the surgeon</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:21.360,0:06:27.600
informed me that everything was alright. He&nbsp;
said my natural crystalline lenses would be</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:27.600,0:06:35.520
replaced with intraocular lenses of diopter&nbsp;
power +18.5. It was exactly the same diopter</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:35.520,0:06:45.200
power that my natural crystalline lenses had.
On Tuesday, 15 February 2022, my right eye got</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:45.200,0:06:51.200
operated on. As soon as the surgery got&nbsp;
completed, the surgeon asked me to open</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:51.200,0:06:58.800
my eyes. As I complied, I immediately saw&nbsp;
everything much brighter as well as crystal</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:58.800,0:07:05.200
clear in the field of my vision. It had gotten&nbsp;
brighter owing to the surgery done on my eye.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:05.200,0:07:11.040
And as far as clarity of vision was concerned,&nbsp;
replacing my natural crystalline lens with</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:11.040,0:07:17.600
the intraocular lens of the same diopter&nbsp;
power had left no negative effect on it.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:18.320,0:07:23.280
It was a moment of extreme elation&nbsp;
for me. Not optimizing my vision</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:23.280,0:07:33.680
for distance had shown its favorable result.
The next day, on Wednesday, 16 February 2022,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:33.680,0:07:41.280
my left eye got operated with similar results.
As soon as both my eyes got intraocular lenses</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:41.280,0:07:46.960
inserted in them, I went impatient. I&nbsp;
could not stop my temptation of trying</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:46.960,0:07:54.000
to read near with them. And lo! To the utter&nbsp;
astonishment of my surgeon as well as of mine,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:54.000,0:08:04.400
I was able to read everything close clearly too.
The next day, on Thursday, 17 February 2022,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:04.400,0:08:10.240
my vision was officially tested&nbsp;
for distance and for near reading.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:10.240,0:08:14.880
Each eye was individually tested&nbsp;
separately. Both of them recorded</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:15.440,0:08:23.440
20/20 vision for distance and N6 for near reading.
I asked my surgeon how he would explain this in</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:23.440,0:08:30.160
light of the accommodation process theorized by&nbsp;
German ophthalmology. According to this theory,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:30.160,0:08:37.120
it should have been impossible for me&nbsp;
to read near, especially with N6 acuity.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:37.120,0:08:42.400
He simply raised his hands in utter&nbsp;
astonishment, saying, “I just don’t know</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:42.400,0:08:49.760
how you are reading near so clear.”
It was a miracle, so to say.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:49.760,0:08:55.360
I asked him if I was his first patient not&nbsp;
requiring near vision glasses from him after</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:55.360,0:09:04.800
cataract removal surgery. He said I was, indeed,&nbsp;
the only one to do so through his entire career.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:04.800,0:09:09.520
The Real Scientific Process&nbsp;
of Visual Accommodation</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:09.520,0:09:18.560
The question was how on earth I was able to see&nbsp;
near so clear with inanimate lenses in my eyes.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:18.560,0:09:23.520
There was only one way in which it&nbsp;
could be explained scientifically.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:24.160,0:09:31.440
It was that I was able to elongate my eyeball in&nbsp;
order to see clear while reading near. And then,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:31.440,0:09:37.600
I was able to turn it back to near&nbsp;
spherical while seeing at a distance.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:37.600,0:09:42.800
According to this explanation, the lens&nbsp;
has no role to play in the process of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:42.800,0:09:49.680
accommodation. It is the eyeball that&nbsp;
effects and controls accommodation.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:49.680,0:09:52.880
It was about a hundred years ago that Dr.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:52.880,0:09:59.040
W. H. Bates had propounded the&nbsp;
same. Here is a quote from him:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:59.040,0:10:05.360
During more than thirty years of clinical&nbsp;
experience, I have not observed a single fact that</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:05.360,0:10:11.040
was not in harmony with the belief that the lens&nbsp;
and the ciliary muscle have nothing to do with</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:11.040,0:10:17.680
accommodation and that the changes in the shape&nbsp;
of the eyeball upon which errors of refraction</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:17.680,0:10:24.560
depend are not permanent. My clinical observations&nbsp;
have of themselves been sufficient to demonstrate</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:24.560,0:10:31.680
this fact. They have also been sufficient to show&nbsp;
how errors of refraction can be produced at will,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:31.680,0:10:39.120
and how they may be cured, temporarily in a few&nbsp;
minutes, and permanently by continued treatment.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:39.120,0:10:46.320</p>



<ul class="wp-block-list">

</ul>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:46.320,0:10:52.480
Eyes are constructed of eyeballs having two&nbsp;
sets of six muscles on each one of them. Two</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:52.480,0:10:58.000
of them are ‘oblique’ muscles and the other&nbsp;
four are ‘recti’. The two oblique muscles</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:58.000,0:11:03.600
are there in the shape of a belt around the&nbsp;
middle of the eyeball. The muscle above is</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:03.600,0:11:11.360
called ‘superior’ and the one below, ‘inferior’.
The four recti muscles pass along the depth of the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:11.360,0:11:19.840
eyeball at the top, bottom, left and right sides.&nbsp;
They are attached to the sclerotic coat at one end</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:19.840,0:11:26.160
and the bone surrounding the optic nerve at the&nbsp;
other. These four muscles at the top, bottom, left</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:26.160,0:11:34.800
and right sides of the eyeball are ‘superior’,&nbsp;
‘inferior’, ‘internal’ and “external” recti.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:34.800,0:11:40.400
When we contract the oblique muscles,&nbsp;
the eyes can easily read near.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:40.400,0:11:44.480
But when this constriction becomes&nbsp;
unconsciously habitual, the eyes</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:44.480,0:11:51.200
cannot see clear at a distance. This condition&nbsp;
is called myopia and is generally combined with</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:51.200,0:11:58.240
astigmatism which means different levels of&nbsp;
constriction in various circular degrees.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:58.240,0:12:02.240
Also, when recti muscles are&nbsp;
kept constricted habitually,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:02.240,0:12:09.840
the eyes are not able to read at close proximity&nbsp;
clearly. Letters go blurred as in hyperopia and</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:09.840,0:12:17.360
presbyopia, and distorted as in astigmatism.
When the crown chakra and the third eye chakra</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:17.360,0:12:24.240
are blocked, these are the muscles that get&nbsp;
affected first. Thereafter, the rest of them,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:24.240,0:12:32.320
including those in the jaws, on the eyebrows,&nbsp;
and around temporomandibular joints get affected.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:32.320,0:12:37.920
Surprisingly, there is a direct physiological&nbsp;
connection between the muscles on the eyeballs</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:37.920,0:12:45.600
and the rest of muscles in the skull! The major&nbsp;
ones among them are the muscles named frontalis,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:45.600,0:12:52.560
temporalis and occipitalis. By relaxing these&nbsp;
three muscles via maneuvering the mandible,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:52.560,0:13:00.480
we can relax the muscles on the eyeballs as well.
Once that is done, we can achieve full voluntary</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:00.480,0:13:07.200
control on the entire process of accommodation.&nbsp;
This is how we can achieve central fixation of the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:07.200,0:13:16.560
eyes and get rid of all the errors of refraction.
The Role That Dr. Bates Played A Hundred Years Ago</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:16.560,0:13:24.480
Around a hundred years ago in the year 1920, Dr.&nbsp;
W. H. Bates, an ophthalmologist published a book.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:24.480,0:13:31.440
It was titled “The Cure of Imperfect Sight&nbsp;
by Treatment without Glasses”. The book was</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:31.440,0:13:38.240
an account of his case studies which involved&nbsp;
curing the vision of people and enabling them</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:38.240,0:13:44.480
to get rid of their glasses. It was also a&nbsp;
logical analysis of how vision goes bad in</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:44.480,0:13:51.520
the first place and how to cure it. With his&nbsp;
analysis, he happened to challenge mainstream</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:51.520,0:13:58.800
ophthalmology on its theoretical premises.
Mainstream ophthalmology had always maintained</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:58.800,0:14:05.440
that vision, once gone bad, could never be&nbsp;
cured. It still maintains the same premise</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:05.440,0:14:12.640
to date. Hence it considers wearing glasses as&nbsp;
the primary solution. It has also come up with</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:12.640,0:14:21.280
its surgical derivative named LASIK. In LASIK,&nbsp;
they sculpt the cornea in the shape of a lens as</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:21.280,0:14:27.760
per the vision prescription. It simply turns the&nbsp;
cornea into an additional lens in front of the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:27.760,0:14:35.920
eye’s main lens without wearing glasses. Not a big&nbsp;
deal! It is rather ineffective in certain cases,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:35.920,0:14:41.600
especially in the long run. I know many&nbsp;
such people whose errors of refraction</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:41.600,0:14:49.120
returned a few years after getting LASIK done.
But mainstream ophthalmology chose not to respond</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:49.120,0:14:57.760
to Dr. Bates’ challenge. It rather chose to ignore&nbsp;
him in an attempt to isolate and ridicule him.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:57.760,0:15:04.640
The question that arises is why, after all,&nbsp;
mainstream ophthalmology chose to ignore its</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:04.640,0:15:11.920
own comrade. Was it just because it thought he&nbsp;
was doing something nonsensical? Far from it,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:11.920,0:15:19.680
his questions were not illogical. Quite to the&nbsp;
contrary, he was getting positive results! Why,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:19.680,0:15:24.880
then, did his own parent organization&nbsp;
ignore him like a step child?</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:24.880,0:15:32.160
The answer, as often is the case, was a&nbsp;
conflict of interests between the two.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:32.160,0:15:37.920
And mainstream ophthalmology continues that&nbsp;
same antagonistic approach toward his research</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:37.920,0:15:45.600
and findings at the time of delivering&nbsp;
this podcast…even almost a century later!</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:45.600,0:15:50.400
What would mainstream ophthalmology&nbsp;
gain from this antagonism?</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:50.400,0:15:57.600
The answer seems to lie in a covert conspiracy as&nbsp;
such. It is possibly scared of losing a luxurious</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:57.600,0:16:04.080
business that it is the sole beneficiary&nbsp;
of. Modern ophthalmology is a gigantic,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:04.080,0:16:10.560
multi-billion-dollar industry.
Here are two quotes to underline it:</p>

Perhaps, none of this industry’s gatekeepers want&nbsp;
to kill the proverbial golden-egg-laying duck?</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:06.560,0:17:11.920
Dr. W. H. Bates ignored his isolation&nbsp;
by mainstream ophthalmology. He went</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:11.920,0:17:17.600
on treating his patients. And, by the&nbsp;
time he died in 1931, he had already</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:17.600,0:17:25.040
cured thousands of them. They had gotten rid of&nbsp;
their glasses as they didn’t need them anymore.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:25.040,0:17:31.600
After his death, many volunteers took up&nbsp;
his work and continued treating patients.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:31.600,0:17:38.720
It has now become an institution in itself that&nbsp;
promotes alternative ophthalmology, defying the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:38.720,0:17:45.920
mainstream authority. These volunteers have kept&nbsp;
Bates’ legacy alive through almost a century after</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:45.920,0:17:55.280
his death. The Bates Method, as it is famous&nbsp;
now, has sculpted a strong niche for itself.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:55.280,0:18:02.080
But there is a problem here. The Bates Method,&nbsp;
in general, is very slow in improving vision.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:02.080,0:18:06.960
Very few people afflicted with errors of&nbsp;
refraction in their faulty eyes have that</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:06.960,0:18:14.400
kind of patience. They find wearing glasses&nbsp;
a ready-made solution and surrender to it.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:14.400,0:18:20.160
They don’t know that, by wearing glasses, they&nbsp;
are forcing their eyes to keep seeing through them</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:20.160,0:18:26.640
for life. An eye must keep seeing inherently&nbsp;
wrong in order to see clear from behind the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:26.640,0:18:34.560
lens fitted on it. Therefore, they kill any&nbsp;
probability of vision improvement for good.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:34.560,0:18:41.440
How I Was Able to Change Bates Method of Central&nbsp;
Fixation from A Mental Procedure to A Physical One</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:41.440,0:18:48.560
As far back as my early childhood, I was diagnosed&nbsp;
with myopia. My left eye required a lens of minus</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:48.560,0:18:56.000
5 diopter to see clear. Luckily, my right&nbsp;
eye was 20/20. So my optometrist gave me a</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:56.000,0:19:01.760
pair of glasses which I never liked wearing.&nbsp;
I could see things with my right eye without</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:01.760,0:19:08.800
any problem. Hence I put my glasses in the&nbsp;
drawer of my table and never took them out.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:08.800,0:19:16.160
A few years passed. I finished my engineering&nbsp;
studies and got appointed to a government job.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:16.160,0:19:19.120
I was instructed to get my&nbsp;
physical examination done</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:19.120,0:19:24.240
in a specified government hospital&nbsp;
before I would begin on the job. So,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:24.240,0:19:31.520
I went for it, aware of the fact that one&nbsp;
of my eyes needed a minus 5 diopter lens.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:31.520,0:19:37.360
But I was in for both a pleasant and&nbsp;
an unpleasant shock at the same time!</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:37.360,0:19:44.800
The doctor told me that both my eyes had&nbsp;
myopia requiring minus 2.25 diopter lenses.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:45.600,0:19:54.000
The world went upside down as well as downside up&nbsp;
for me. My normal 20/20 vision in my right eye had</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:54.000,0:20:01.600
deteriorated to require minus 2.25 diopter&nbsp;
lens to see clear. But my faulty eye had</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:01.600,0:20:11.280
spontaneously improved itself from requiring minus&nbsp;
5 diopter lens to just minus 2.25 diopter now.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:11.280,0:20:17.040
How did my eyes manage to do so on their own&nbsp;
without my conscious awareness of it? It was</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:17.040,0:20:21.760
against the very basic premise upon&nbsp;
which all of mainstream ophthalmology</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:21.760,0:20:27.120
had structured its existence.
According to Jessica Lewis,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:27.120,0:20:34.560
optometrist from Illinois College of Optometry:
Not wearing glasses, also, cannot change the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:34.560,0:20:40.480
shape of your eye, so if you stop wearing&nbsp;
glasses, you will not make it so that you</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:40.480,0:20:47.200
don‘t need glasses and you will not make&nbsp;
it so that your vision returns to normal.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:47.200,0:20:53.200
How can, then, mainstream ophthalmology explain&nbsp;
the reversal of my eyesight from minus 5 diopter</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:53.200,0:20:59.280
to minus 2.25 diopter?
It can’t.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:59.280,0:21:05.440
Anyway, I lived up to the age of 53 with both&nbsp;
of my eyes requiring correction by minus 2.25</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:06.160,0:21:13.440
diopter lenses. That&nbsp;was before I accidentally&nbsp;
stumbled upon a spontaneous and instantaneous</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:13.440,0:21:20.960
clarity of vision one day. Later, I researched&nbsp;
the phenomenon to understand it in depth and</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:20.960,0:21:27.840
how to achieve it at will and sustainably.
Earlier, I had mentioned that the Bates Method</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:27.840,0:21:32.960
was slow to provide even the first&nbsp;
flashes of clear vision. At times,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:32.960,0:21:39.840
it was instantaneous but, in general, it&nbsp;
took a long time to do so. I was looking</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:39.840,0:21:46.160
for something in the procedure that would make&nbsp;
it instantaneous as well as measurable. Here,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:46.160,0:21:53.680
by instantaneous, I mean a single session of&nbsp;
a few hours. Even if it is not full clarity,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:53.680,0:22:01.360
the amount of clarity gained should be measurable.&nbsp;
Measurability would enable such a&nbsp;procedure to get</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:01.360,0:22:08.720
verified under the test conditions that mainstream&nbsp;
ophthalmology would, no doubt, insist on.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:08.720,0:22:13.600
And this is what the Bates Method,&nbsp;
despite being a brilliant procedure,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:13.600,0:22:20.160
is lacking. It can’t generate measurable&nbsp;
improvements in a single session. Hence,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:20.160,0:22:26.880
it could never decisively pass the challenge of&nbsp;
strict scrutiny done under laboratory conditions.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:28.320,0:22:34.560
It was because Bates had positioned his method&nbsp;
around relaxation of the mind in order to relax</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:34.560,0:22:41.920
the eyes. In relaxing the mind and the eyes, his&nbsp;
basic purpose was to attain the central fixation</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:41.920,0:22:49.040
of the mind. The central fixation of the mind&nbsp;
led to the central fixation of the eyes. It meant</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:49.040,0:22:56.240
focusing at a single point in the field of vision&nbsp;
so that it made its image exactly at the fovea.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:57.360,0:23:02.240
Bates contended that central fixation&nbsp;
of the eyes was not achievable without</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:02.240,0:23:09.280
achieving central fixation of the mind.
As I have mentioned earlier, the mind is a very</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:09.280,0:23:17.200
vague entity. It has processes inside it that are&nbsp;
intangible, meaning you can’t measure them. And,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:17.200,0:23:24.560
if you can’t measure a thing, you can’t be sure&nbsp;
of its objective existence, nor of its strength.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:24.560,0:23:31.600
You cannot say with 100% surety that you are going&nbsp;
the right way. You can’t even be sure of how much</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:31.600,0:23:39.840
of it you need to achieve the desired results.
At times they may click but rarely so. So, you</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:39.840,0:23:47.120
need to keep making trials and errors until you&nbsp;
can hit the target. It takes time, and at times,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:47.120,0:23:56.800
a lot of it. Not to mention, you can’t even create&nbsp;
them instantly and at will with 100% surety.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:56.800,0:24:03.680
This is what makes the Bates Method unreliable.
But, if we approach this from the perspective</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:03.680,0:24:11.120
of physical effects, it all becomes solid and&nbsp;
tangible. And they are not always the effects. At</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:11.120,0:24:18.560
times, they may be the cause to begin with. We can&nbsp;
pinpoint them. We can even measure them. Hence,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:18.560,0:24:27.120
we are more in control of them. That is why we&nbsp;
can activate them instantly and to their fullest.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:27.120,0:24:32.080
This was what I did with the Bates Method&nbsp;
when it came to achieving central fixation</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:32.080,0:24:39.040
of the eyes. I just changed its direction.&nbsp;
Bates had directed it from central fixation</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:39.040,0:24:44.560
of the mind to the central fixation of the&nbsp;
eyes. I changed it from central fixation of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:44.560,0:24:51.600
the eyes to the central fixation of the mind.
I did a lot of research on how chakras affected</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:51.600,0:24:58.880
the anatomy and the physiology of our body. As you&nbsp;
might know already, the description&nbsp;and approach</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:58.880,0:25:06.000
to chakras in ancient scriptures is deeply&nbsp;
embedded in the spiritual arena. Their shallow,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:06.000,0:25:13.680
modern-day interpretations follow suit without&nbsp;
even understanding what spirituality really means.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:13.680,0:25:19.600
With their mysterious-sounding descriptions,&nbsp;
these misplaced interpretations have tended</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:19.600,0:25:26.400
to turn chakras into an esoteric discipline.
I aimed at understanding the physical effect of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:26.400,0:25:34.560
chakras at different parts of our body, i.e.,&nbsp;
on its nerves and musculature. Spirituality,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:34.560,0:25:42.880
like the mind, is not a concrete entity; it is&nbsp;
rather even vaguer than the mind. It is esoteric.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:44.080,0:25:50.240
Central Fixation Is Instantly Achievable&nbsp;
through Skeletal Chakra Meditation</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:50.240,0:25:57.040
Consequently, what I did with chakras was&nbsp;
exactly what I had done with the mind. I</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:57.040,0:26:02.560
addressed the issues associated with chakras&nbsp;
from the perspective of their effects on the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:02.560,0:26:08.560
body. For all we know, these so-called&nbsp;
effects might actually be the culprits</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:08.560,0:26:16.240
causing those issues in the first place!
Since body and spirit, like body and mind,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:16.240,0:26:22.080
are two sides of the same coin, the&nbsp;
former affects the latter as well. It</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:22.080,0:26:29.280
is exactly the way in which the latter had&nbsp;
affected the former before, if at all so.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:29.280,0:26:35.760
This approach enabled me to discover that central&nbsp;
fixation of the eyes was exactly what third eye</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:35.760,0:26:41.360
and crown chakra meditation achieved.
Opening the third eye and the crown</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:41.360,0:26:48.640
chakras meant achieving central fixation of the&nbsp;
eyes along with central fixation of the mind.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:48.640,0:26:56.560
I could now pinpoint it and activate it instantly&nbsp;
to its fullest by measuring it properly. And</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:56.560,0:27:03.840
the best thing was I could do it at will!
Of course, it does require some time to open</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:03.840,0:27:09.280
the third eye and the crown chakras through&nbsp;
third eye and crown chakra meditation. It is</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:09.280,0:27:16.320
because the muscles in its vicinity need time to&nbsp;
loosen up their age-old rigidity. Once they have</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:16.320,0:27:23.760
done that, the eyes start seeing perfectly&nbsp;
without any artificial aid worn upon them.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:23.760,0:27:30.320
Achieving central fixation through opening all&nbsp;
7 chakras is not only about vision correction.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:30.320,0:27:36.480
Vision correction is merely an indication that we&nbsp;
are on the right track in our journey toward Homo</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:36.480,0:27:44.400
sapiens evolution as a whole. It leads us to a&nbsp;
perfect state of biological, mental and spiritual</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:44.400,0:27:52.240
health, replete with the flow of cosmic (or&nbsp;
biological) energy through us. It enables us to be</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:52.240,0:27:59.920
in peace with ourselves individually, paving the&nbsp;
way toward creating a peaceful world around us.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:59.920,0:28:07.440
It fills us with intelligent insights to mend&nbsp;
our deteriorating sociocultural institutions and,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:07.440,0:28:16.160
then, to create a colorful world around us.&nbsp;
In short, it paves the way to heaven on earth!</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:16.160,0:28:21.920
My central fixation boosted my immunity to&nbsp;
an extent that enabled me to live together</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:21.920,0:28:28.800
with my Covid-19-infected family without&nbsp;
ever contracting the virus myself. Though</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:28.800,0:28:36.240
unvaccinated, my innate immunity saved me from&nbsp;
catching it even from such close vicinity.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:36.240,0:28:41.920
Third eye and crown chakra meditation,&nbsp;
or central fixation, not only clarifies</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:41.920,0:28:49.520
eyesight but also benefits the body, the mind&nbsp;
and the spirit in the following additional ways:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:49.520,0:28:58.520
Immunity Boost | Headache Eradication | Depression&nbsp;
Alleviation | Anxiety Eradication | Enhanced Focus</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:58.520,0:29:07.360
| Deeper &amp; Slower Breathing | Improved Circulation&nbsp;
| Stronger Heart | Faster Assimilation | Improved</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:07.360,0:29:15.120
Digestion | Smoother Excretion | Hormonal&nbsp;
Balance | Autoimmune Diseases Eradication</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:15.840,0:29:22.960
I would even venture to say that third eye and&nbsp;
crown chakra meditation or central fixation is</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:22.960,0:29:29.680
not, as Aldous Huxley would say, ‘The Art&nbsp;
of Seeing’ alone. It is actually ‘The Art</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:29.680,0:29:37.920
of Healing’ the body, the mind and the spirit.
Whenever the mind is not in a meditative state,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:37.920,0:29:43.040
it does something detrimental&nbsp;
to the body. As a result,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:43.040,0:29:50.400
the body constricts some specific muscles that&nbsp;
are meant to be relaxed and loosens some others</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:50.400,0:29:57.280
that are meant to be kept contracted. With&nbsp;
the continuation of such a mental state,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:57.280,0:30:04.480
the body keeps those muscles constricted or&nbsp;
loosened for long. With the passage of time,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:04.480,0:30:11.040
these muscles habituate themselves in those&nbsp;
same erroneously constricted or loosened states.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:12.400,0:30:20.240
And, with the further passage of time, the said&nbsp;
constriction or loosening turns unconscious. The</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:20.240,0:30:27.680
affected muscles lose their range of flexibility.&nbsp;
They start giving a message to the mind that they</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:27.680,0:30:35.120
are not making any effort. And the fact is that&nbsp;
they really start perceiving their constricted or</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:35.120,0:30:42.080
loosened disposition as relaxation. They don’t&nbsp;
even realize that this is a serious reduction</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:42.080,0:30:50.320
in their own innate range of flexibility. They&nbsp;
start assuming as if the range was always limited.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:50.320,0:30:56.400
We can decide to bring the affected muscles&nbsp;
back to their relaxed state, but they resist</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:56.400,0:31:03.520
doing so. So, we need to pull them out of this&nbsp;
unconscious habitual constriction or loosening</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:03.520,0:31:11.120
by stretching or contracting them out and up. The&nbsp;
constricted or loosened muscles perceive it as an</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:11.120,0:31:19.920
effort and hence feel pseudo-tired in the process.
However, if we show perseverance and continue to</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:19.920,0:31:25.440
stretch or contract the affected muscles&nbsp;
out of their constriction or loosening,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:25.440,0:31:32.720
they listen. And they listen because their&nbsp;
unconscious memory - what is often referred to</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:32.720,0:31:40.240
as “muscle memory” - gives them a feeling of doing&nbsp;
something right. With the passage of time, they</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:40.240,0:31:48.160
start regaining their lost flexibility and range.
Muscles do take their time to get rid of their</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:48.160,0:31:53.680
constricted rigidity or loosened&nbsp;
lethargy. Once they have done it,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:53.680,0:32:01.120
the entire body-mind system comes back to its&nbsp;
natural, spontaneous state. With that, the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:32:01.120,0:32:08.800
purpose of said meditation is achieved. Thereon,&nbsp;
we only need to ensure that we don’t repeat the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:32:08.800,0:32:15.440
old habits in the body or the mind again.
So, which muscles go rigid and which ones go</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:32:15.440,0:32:21.200
lethargic when vision gets compromised,&nbsp;
be it for distance or near reading?</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:32:22.000,0:32:27.680
These are the muscles in the vicinity of the&nbsp;
third eye and the crown chakras. In fact,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:32:27.680,0:32:34.400
the crown chakra is a widening of&nbsp;
a narrow third eye chakra by 270o.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:32:34.400,0:32:39.280
Central fixation, through the opening of&nbsp;
chakras, not only improves our vision and</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:32:39.280,0:32:44.560
changes our physiological systems,&nbsp;
it also changes us as a person.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:32:45.200,0:32:51.360
At that point, we will already have taken&nbsp;
an important step toward Skeletal Leap into</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:32:51.360,0:32:57.840
the next major Homo sapiens evolution.&nbsp;
What is left is to activate the rising</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:32:57.840,0:33:05.760
of energy from the gut to the brain. And&nbsp;
this is where we enter the realm of breath.</p>

Welcome back to the 25th episode of Skeletal Leap: A Living Adventure!



Today’s episode titled “Eye Training for Crystal Clear Eye Vision NOW!” will tell you about an unintended evidence strengthening the skeletal chakra hypothesis via achieving central fixation of the eyes.



As I’ve mentioned earlier, the biological miracle that I have long been working with is the skeletal codes of instant central fixation of the eyes, the body and the mind.



Mainstream ophthalmology had always maintained that vision, once gone bad, could never be cured.





SKELETAL LEAP, the mind body connection for mind and body healing, is a giant leap that our skeleton can take through the way it postures its joints.

Central fixation, through the opening of chakras,



0:00:03.920,0:00:08.400
not only improves our vision and&nbsp;
changes our physiological systems,



0:00:08.400,0:00:24.800
it also changes us as a person.
My name is Laadi Ojas. Welcome



0:00:24.800,0:00:34.160
to “Skeletal Leap: A Living Adventure”. Skeletal&nbsp;
Leap transforms one’s life into a personal heaven.



0:00:34.160,0:00:38.480
Today’s episode will tell you about&nbsp;
an unintended evidence strengthening



0:00:38.480,0:00:44.800
the skeletal chakra hypothesis via&nbsp;
achieving central fixation of the eyes.



0:00:44.800,0:00:49.920
As I’ve mentioned earlier, the biological&nbsp;
miracle that I have long been working with



0:00:49.920,0:00:56.480
is the skeletal codes of instant central&nbsp;
fixation of the eyes, the body and the mind.



0:00:57.120,0:01:04.240
Let me tell you another story, a recent&nbsp;
one that reinforces my above statement.



0:01:04.240,0:01:10.240
The Story of Activating A So-called&nbsp;
Impossible Visual Accommodation



0:01:10.240,0:01:13.920
“I seem to have cracked its code.”



0:01:13.920,0:01:19.040
This was what I said to my ophthalmological&nbsp;
surgeon who was preparing to start a surgery



0:01:19.040,0:01:24.800
for my cataract removal. I got&nbsp;
my cataract removed in 2022.



0:01:25.440,0:01:31.600
I said to my surgeon again as he had&nbsp;
not yet replied, “I think I have cracked



0:01:31.600,0:01:38.240
the code of central fixation of the eyes.”
It was a few seconds before lying down on the



0:01:38.240,0:01:45.200
operation table that I spoke these words.
This time, he looked at me and replied,



0:01:45.200,0:01:51.760
“Right now, I am not listening to you.”
He added, “I am in my pre-surgery trance.



0:01:51.760,0:01:57.040
We will discuss it&nbsp;once the&nbsp;
surgery is successfully completed.”



0:01:57.040,0:02:04.800
It was a Tuesday. A few days prior, I had met&nbsp;
him in his clinic. I had asked him to replace



0:02:04.800,0:02:11.520
my clouded natural crystalline lens with an&nbsp;
intraocular lens of the same diopter power.



0:02:12.240,0:02:18.160
The normal procedure of cataract surgery simply&nbsp;
removes the clouded natural lenses in the eyes



0:02:18.160,0:02:25.280
and replaces them with artificial clear lenses.&nbsp;
These natural lenses which get clouded owing to



0:02:25.280,0:02:32.960
protein coagulation with age are called natural&nbsp;
crystalline lenses. The artificial clear lenses



0:02:32.960,0:02:40.880
that replace them are called intraocular lenses.&nbsp;
It is a very simple, 10-minute surgical procedure



0:02:40.880,0:02:48.000
though it does demand impeccable precision from&nbsp;
the surgeon. And, as per modern ophthalmology,



0:02:48.000,0:02:54.240
since these intraocular lenses cannot fatten like&nbsp;
natural ]]></itunes:summary>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:00.960,0:00:06.000
Evolution, driven by bipedalism, meant&nbsp;
that Homo sapiens were the only species</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:06.000,0:00:21.920
to function with an upright gait. This&nbsp;
changed the lengths of their legs.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:21.920,0:00:28.800
My name is Laadi Ojas. Welcome to&nbsp;
“Skeletal Leap: A Living Adventure”.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:28.800,0:00:34.160
Skeletal Leap transforms one’s&nbsp;
life into a personal heaven.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:34.160,0:00:38.320
Today’s episode will tell you&nbsp;
about how skeletal re-posturing</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:38.320,0:00:44.480
opens chakras through completing&nbsp;
our bipedal skeletal evolution.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:44.480,0:00:51.440
Human bipedalism started around 4-7 million&nbsp;
years ago when our ancestors named hominins</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:51.440,0:00:58.480
stood on their twos. As it happened, their&nbsp;
skeleton started evolving to suit itself to</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:58.480,0:01:05.040
bipedalism as much as it could. It changed&nbsp;
in its arrangement of bones with respect to</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:05.040,0:01:12.240
one another as well as in their shapes&nbsp;
and sizes. The changes involved were…</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:12.240,0:01:19.040
New arrangement and size of foot bones&nbsp;
| Hip size and shape | Knee size | Leg</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:19.040,0:01:26.160
length | Shape and orientation of&nbsp;
vertebral column | Skull orientation</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:26.160,0:01:33.200
Bipedalism made walking more energy-efficient&nbsp;
and human movement much easier. Though running</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:33.200,0:01:39.920
became less energy-efficient, walking was much&nbsp;
more important. Hence the trade-off worked.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:39.920,0:01:48.400
It increased their locomotion tremendously.
Bipedalism Driven Skeletal Evolution Details</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:48.400,0:01:54.240
There were other trade-offs as well, all through&nbsp;
the skeletal system, that Homo sapiens have been</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:54.240,0:02:01.600
dealing with the adverse effects of, ever since.&nbsp;
In the rest of this episode, I will endeavor to</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:01.600,0:02:08.160
describe various parts of our skeleton while&nbsp;
pointing out those particular trade-offs that</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:08.160,0:02:15.600
apply to each of those parts. I will, then, go&nbsp;
on to describe the ideal position/ posture of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:15.600,0:02:21.520
those parts while bringing our attention to how&nbsp;
we have gotten used to their ‘unhealthy’ versions.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:22.240,0:02:26.320
This will be followed by descriptions&nbsp;
of the corresponding biological/</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:26.320,0:02:33.920
psychological ailments arising from those&nbsp;
‘unhealthy’ positions/ postures. Finally,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:33.920,0:02:40.640
I will arrive at my most significant discovery&nbsp;
and thesis which is to ascribe the appropriate</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:40.640,0:02:46.400
chakras to these ‘unhealthy’ positions/&nbsp;
postures and their resultant ailments.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:47.120,0:02:53.280
Needless to say, this will be accompanied with&nbsp;
the necessary actions required to dissolve those</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:53.280,0:02:57.120
chakras.
Foot:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:57.120,0:03:03.680
With the help of newly evolved larger heels,&nbsp;
the foot increased in size. This enabled it</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:03.680,0:03:08.880
to work like a platform on which the body&nbsp;
weight could easily rest. It also turned</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:08.880,0:03:15.360
the toes smaller than before as they were no&nbsp;
more used to grasp things like tree trunks.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:16.160,0:03:22.400
The foot, as a platform, didn’t evolve as&nbsp;
a flat surface but did so as an arched one.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:22.400,0:03:27.200
This arching distributed the body weight along&nbsp;
the feet from their heels to their balls behind</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:27.200,0:03:34.000
the big toes. This weight distribution&nbsp;
conserved a lot of energy while walking.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:34.000,0:03:39.040
Here, I feel the need to share my observations&nbsp;
from training people in re-posturing through</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:39.040,0:03:46.160
Skeletal Leap. The energy conservation in walking&nbsp;
resulting from body weight distribution is the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:46.160,0:03:54.240
ideal state. What I have noticed in the majority&nbsp;
of my trainees is something different. Owing to</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:54.240,0:03:59.600
posturing their body in a wrong way over years&nbsp;
and years, they distribute their body weight</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:59.600,0:04:06.080
on the outsides of their feet. Most of them&nbsp;
do so toward the outer sides of their heels</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:06.080,0:04:13.120
whereas the rest do toward their little toes. The&nbsp;
first thing I always check in my trainees is the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:13.120,0:04:21.840
soles of their shoes. More specifically, where&nbsp;
those soles have worn the most. My data suggest</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:21.840,0:04:28.080
that most of the modern Homo sapiens distribute&nbsp;
their body weight on their feet the wrong way.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:28.080,0:04:35.760
Today, the human foot is a complex structure&nbsp;
of 26 bones, 33 joints and hundreds of muscles,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:35.760,0:04:40.080
tendons and ligaments. The&nbsp;
main joints of the foot are:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:40.080,0:04:46.960
Ankle joint | Subtalar joint |&nbsp;
Interphalangeal foot articulations</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:46.960,0:04:53.760
A foot has three parts to it:
The hindfoot comprises the ankle bone (talus)</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:53.760,0:05:00.880
and heel bone (calcaneus). The ankle bone connects&nbsp;
to tibia and fibula in the lower leg and forms the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:00.880,0:05:08.080
ankle joint. At its other end, it connects&nbsp;to&nbsp;
the heel bone and forms the subtalar joint.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:08.080,0:05:15.840
The midfoot has five bones: the cuboid, navicular&nbsp;
and three cuneiform bones from its arches,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:15.840,0:05:20.400
serving as a shock absorber. It is&nbsp;
connected to the hindfoot and the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:20.400,0:05:27.680
forefoot with muscles and plantar fascia.&nbsp;
The forefoot comprises five toes and five</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:27.680,0:05:35.040
proximal long bones forming metatarsus. Toe&nbsp;
bones are called phalanges. The joints among</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:35.040,0:05:40.800
these phalanges are named interphalangeal&nbsp;
joints while joints of phalanges with</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:40.800,0:05:48.240
metatarsus are named metatarsophalangeal joints.
The human foot has two longitudinal and one</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:48.240,0:05:54.480
transverse arches. They make walking&nbsp;
and running more energy-efficient.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:54.480,0:05:57.200
Knee:
Human knee joints</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:57.200,0:06:01.920
have also evolved to support the increased&nbsp;
body weight between just the two of them,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:01.920,0:06:09.360
as opposed to among the four before bipedalism.
The degree of knee extension, meaning the angle</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:09.360,0:06:16.720
between the thigh and the shank in the walking&nbsp;
cycle, has decreased. This change called double</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:16.720,0:06:23.040
knee action reduces energy lost by vertical&nbsp;
displacement of the center of gravity. It</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:23.040,0:06:31.040
enables Homo sapiens to keep their knees straight&nbsp;
right under the body, improving its balance.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:31.040,0:06:36.080
The knee joins the thigh and the leg with&nbsp;
two joints, tibiofemoral joint connecting</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:36.080,0:06:42.160
femur with tibia and patellofemoral&nbsp;
joint connecting femur and patella.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:42.160,0:06:48.640
This modified hinge joint is the largest&nbsp;
joint in the body. It very efficiently</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:48.640,0:06:56.000
permits flexion and extension along with&nbsp;
a limited internal and external rotation.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:56.000,0:07:01.200
Limbs:
Evolution, driven by bipedalism, meant that Homo</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:01.200,0:07:08.000
sapiens were the only species to function with an&nbsp;
upright gait. This changed the lengths of their</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:08.000,0:07:14.800
legs. Today, leg muscles are the ones that give&nbsp;
a push, through their ankles, to the action of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:14.800,0:07:23.840
walking. Longer legs also give an effortless swing&nbsp;
to the steps without using the muscles every time.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:23.840,0:07:30.640
Since forelimbs, or hands as we now call them,&nbsp;
don’t play any role in the action of walking, they</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:30.640,0:07:37.520
have been freed to be used for other activities.
Bipedal evolution provided Homo sapiens with</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:37.520,0:07:44.240
upper limbs for visually guided manipulation and&nbsp;
lower limbs for mechanically guided bipedal gait.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:44.880,0:07:51.440
It also optimized the location of the body’s&nbsp;
center of gravity. It further reorganized the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:51.440,0:07:58.720
internal organs and the biomechanism of the trunk&nbsp;
through a double S shaped vertebral column. Today,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:58.720,0:08:05.920
the double S shape of the vertebral column is&nbsp;
an efficient shock absorber. The entire skeletal</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:05.920,0:08:12.240
system thus efficiently shifts the weight&nbsp;
of the upper body to the sole of the feet.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:12.240,0:08:18.880
Long, load bearing legs are also&nbsp;
very nicely optimized for bipedalism.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:18.880,0:08:25.200
All the large joints of the lower limb are&nbsp;
aligned in a vertically oriented straight line.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:25.200,0:08:30.960
Hip and Pelvis:
Bipedalism also resulted in larger hip</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:30.960,0:08:38.240
joints than before to better support the entire&nbsp;
body weight. It made the hip shorter and broader,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:38.240,0:08:44.480
bringing the vertebral column closer to itself.&nbsp;
This re-arrangement provided a more stable</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:44.480,0:08:51.440
base for the support of the trunk while walking&nbsp;
upright. The ilium broadened, thereby adjusting</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:51.440,0:08:58.480
the walls of the pelvis to face laterally.
The size of the gluteus muscles increased as well,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:58.480,0:09:06.640
enabling Homo sapiens to assume a balanced stance&nbsp;
even on just one leg. The sacrum turned broader,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:06.640,0:09:11.920
thus increasing the opening of the birth&nbsp;
canal in the females of the species.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:11.920,0:09:18.320
Three pelvic bones fused into one as the hip bone.&nbsp;
Today, the hip joins the head of the femur to the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:18.320,0:09:25.760
acetabulum of the pelvis. This joint supports&nbsp;
the weight of the body in its static as well as</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:25.760,0:09:33.680
dynamic state. Thus, the hip joint retains balance&nbsp;
and maintains the pelvic inclination angle.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:33.680,0:09:38.560
Pelvic Tilt:
Pelvic tilt is a movable postural orientation</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:38.560,0:09:45.280
of the pelvis. It is an orientation relative to&nbsp;
the thigh bones, knee joints and the soles of the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:45.280,0:09:51.840
feet below. It also changes the orientation&nbsp;
of the hip joint. When postured right, it</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:51.840,0:09:59.840
subtly supports the weight of the vertebral column&nbsp;
above it while keeping its double S shape intact.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:59.840,0:10:04.800
But that is just a description of&nbsp;
the ideal pelvic orientation. A major</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:04.800,0:10:10.960
chunk of the human population habitually&nbsp;
keeps this pelvic tilt wrongly postured.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:10.960,0:10:15.120
There are two reasons for this&nbsp;
unhealthy habit formation.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:15.760,0:10:21.920
The first one is the downward pull by gravity on&nbsp;
its orientation. People give in to this constant</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:21.920,0:10:29.520
downward pull when they lack enough life energy to&nbsp;
keep its orientation up. They just let the front</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:29.520,0:10:36.240
of their pelvis drop in relation to its back.&nbsp;
The newly acquired orientation called anterior</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:36.240,0:10:43.120
pelvic tilt also disrupts the orientation of&nbsp;
the hip joint. This further disrupts the double</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:43.120,0:10:49.520
S shape of the vertebral column above. Below,&nbsp;
it disrupts the load bearing distribution at</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:49.520,0:10:57.520
the knee joints and at the soles of the feet, thus&nbsp;
rendering the entire skeletal posture ‘unhealthy’.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:57.520,0:11:03.600
The second reason is an emotionally driven,&nbsp;
‘pulled-in’ psychological state that results in</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:03.600,0:11:10.800
same aforementioned ‘unhealthy’ skeletal posture.
The aforementioned anterior pelvic tilt is just</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:10.800,0:11:17.440
one, albeit the most prevalent,&nbsp;
of its many abnormal orientations.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:17.440,0:11:21.200
The second most prevalent of the&nbsp;
abnormal orientations of the pelvic</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:21.200,0:11:26.720
joint is the posterior pelvic tilt.
Here is a complete list of pelvic</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:26.720,0:11:32.640
tilt abnormalities as and when its&nbsp;
orientation gets wrongly postured:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:34.080,0:11:41.280
Anterior pelvic tilt drops the front of the pelvis&nbsp;
relative to the back of the pelvis. It shortens</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:41.280,0:11:50.960
the hip flexors and lengthens the hip extensors.
Posterior pelvic tilt raises the front of the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:50.960,0:11:55.200
pelvic relative to the back of&nbsp;
the pelvis. It lengthens the hip</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:55.200,0:12:03.680
flexors and shortens the hip extensors.
Lateral pelvic tilt happens when one</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:03.680,0:12:10.400
keeps pelvis tilted to left or right&nbsp;
habitually, resulting in scoliosis.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:11.600,0:12:18.960
Left pelvic tilt keeps the right side of&nbsp;
the pelvis raised more than the left side.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:20.400,0:12:27.280
Right pelvic tilt keeps the left side of&nbsp;
the pelvis raised more than the right side.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:27.280,0:12:32.800
Tailbone vis-à-vis Root Chakra:
Pelvic tilt is the sole cause of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:32.800,0:12:38.240
a closed root chakra appearing at the&nbsp;
lowest point, coccyx (aka tailbone),</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:38.240,0:12:46.080
of the vertebral column. Coccyx lies very near the&nbsp;
pelvic belt. And the pelvic tilt drops it down and</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:46.080,0:12:53.280
pushes it forward in the case of a posterior&nbsp;
pelvic tilt. When the pelvic tilt is anterior,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:53.280,0:13:01.600
it still drops the coccyx down but pushes it&nbsp;
backward this time. Both these maneuvers sow the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:01.600,0:13:08.480
seed of closed chakras eventually distorting&nbsp;
the double S curve of the vertebral column.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:08.480,0:13:14.560
A closed root chakra also disrupts the anatomy&nbsp;
and hence the physiology of the pelvis,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:14.560,0:13:23.360
hip and the lower limb. It disrupts the&nbsp;
pelvic, hip, knee, ankle and subtalar joints</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:23.360,0:13:31.440
with interphalangeal articulations of the feet and&nbsp;
the associated muscles, nerves and blood vessels.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:31.440,0:13:40.880
As a result, the tailbone (coccyx) drops down as&nbsp;
well as moves forward or backward at the pelvis.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:41.600,0:13:49.040
The body weight distribution on the hip, knees&nbsp;
and soles of the feet gets distorted centering its</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:49.040,0:13:57.280
thrust on the wrong points. With the passage of&nbsp;
time, one develops knee pain, sciatica, varicose</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:57.280,0:14:05.040
veins and constipation in case of posterior pelvic&nbsp;
tilt. When it is due to anterior pelvic tilt,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:05.040,0:14:12.320
constipation gets replaced with chronic diarrhea.
Symptoms of root chakra blockage are indicators of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:12.320,0:14:18.960
lifestyle diseases related to the root chakra.
It makes us feel ungrounded biologically</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:18.960,0:14:23.280
as well as psychologically. Hence&nbsp;
it keeps us perennially concerned</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:23.280,0:14:31.920
with survival and material security in life.
More specifically, a posterior pelvic tilt turns</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:31.920,0:14:40.560
us into misers who fear losing whatever little&nbsp;
we have. Biologically, this manifests as</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:40.560,0:14:48.400
constipation, belly fat and/ or hemorrhoids.
On the other hand, an anterior pelvic tilt</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:48.400,0:14:57.360
turns us into spendthrifts. Contrary to common&nbsp;
perception, this comes from a place of greed.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:57.360,0:15:02.720
Here, I’d like to bring our attention back to&nbsp;
a point I made earlier, i.e., the opposite of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:02.720,0:15:09.360
fear is not courage but greed. Therefore,&nbsp;
it makes us believe that our wealth would</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:09.360,0:15:17.520
never deplete even when a lot of it gets lost.&nbsp;
Biologically, this leads to chronic diarrhea.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:17.520,0:15:20.960
Both types of pelvic tilts are&nbsp;
accompanied by other symptoms</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:20.960,0:15:27.200
such as acidity and loss of appetite.
Opening the root chakra reverses the wrong</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:27.200,0:15:34.240
done to the pelvic tilt and makes the ideal&nbsp;
pelvic posture one’s first nature. Doing away</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:34.240,0:15:42.000
with our pelvic tilt tends to start the first&nbsp;
step toward a ‘healthy’ skeletal re-posturing.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:42.000,0:15:45.520
Vertebral Column:
The vertebral column</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:45.520,0:15:52.080
of Homo sapiens, in its natural posture,&nbsp;
has a forward bend in its lumbar region.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:52.080,0:15:59.360
Above this, it has a backward bend in its thoracic&nbsp;
region. Together, these two bends give rise to the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:59.360,0:16:05.920
double S shape of the vertebral column. Without&nbsp;
its forward bend in its lumbar region, the body</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:05.920,0:16:14.000
would have kept leaning forward. In that case it&nbsp;
would have needed a huge effort to stand upright.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:14.000,0:16:18.480
The forward bend in the lumbar region and&nbsp;
the backward bend in the thoracic region</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:18.480,0:16:24.000
keep the body straight. These two bends&nbsp;
do so by keeping the body’s center of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:24.000,0:16:29.760
gravity vertically in line with its feet.
The vertebral column is what makes Homo</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:29.760,0:16:38.080
sapiens a vertebrate that has a long chain of&nbsp;
vertebrae separated by intervertebral discs.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:38.080,0:16:43.520
Their nomenclature is done by their region&nbsp;
– denoted by a letter – within the vertebral</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:43.520,0:16:51.440
column and their position – denoted by a number&nbsp;
– within that region. The vertebral column also</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:51.440,0:17:00.000
has a spinal canal for housing the spinal cord.
Nomenclature of the vertebrae: Cervical spine 7</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:00.000,0:17:09.840
vertebrae (C1 - C7) | Thoracic spine 12&nbsp;
vertebrae (T1 - T12) | Lumbar spine 5</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:09.840,0:17:21.600
vertebrae (L1 -L5) | Sacrum 5 fused vertebrae&nbsp;
(S1 -S5) | Coccyx 4 fused vertebrae (Tailbone)</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:21.600,0:17:29.600
There are 33 vertebrae in the vertebral column.&nbsp;
The upper 24 of them are of the articulating type</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:29.600,0:17:37.440
and separated from one another by intervertebral&nbsp;
discs. The lower 9 of them are of the fused type</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:37.440,0:17:45.520
in human adults, 5 in the sacrum and 4&nbsp;
in the coccyx. Ligaments at the front,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:45.520,0:17:51.440
back and in between the vertebrae&nbsp;
help lengthen the vertebral column.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:51.440,0:17:59.120
These ligaments join the spinous processes, the&nbsp;
transverse processes and the vertebral laminae.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:59.120,0:18:06.320
Atlas and axis are the topmost vertebrae in&nbsp;
the cervical region and they support the head.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:06.320,0:18:12.320
Vertebral body and vertebral arch are the&nbsp;
two parts of a vertebra placed anteriorly and</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:12.320,0:18:20.320
posteriorly respectively. These two parts that are&nbsp;
in contact with each other enclose the vertebral</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:20.320,0:18:27.520
foramen through which the spinal cord passes.
The vertebral arch comprises two pedicles</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:27.520,0:18:34.640
and two laminae. The arch performs seven&nbsp;
processes out of which 4 are articular,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:34.640,0:18:42.240
2 are transverse and one is spinous (aka neural&nbsp;
spine). The spinous process comes out the back</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:42.240,0:18:49.200
and the two transverse processes come out left&nbsp;
and right respectively. Vertebrae are joined by</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:49.200,0:18:56.080
a thin portion of the neural arch called the&nbsp;
pars interarticularis with facet joints that</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:56.080,0:19:03.920
allow a restricted movement. Each pair of two&nbsp;
vertebrae contains two small holes between them.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:04.640,0:19:10.720
These holes are named intervertebral foramina.&nbsp;
Spinal nerves go out of the spinal cord to</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:10.720,0:19:16.400
the organs through these holes.
As a result of bipedal evolution,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:16.400,0:19:23.680
the vertebral column got curved at numerous places&nbsp;
to stabilize the body in an upright position.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:23.680,0:19:29.280
Here is a list of curves in the vertebral&nbsp;
column comprising their vertebrae:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:29.280,0:19:40.560
C2 - T2: convex forward (lordotic curve) | T2 -&nbsp;
T12: concave forward (kyphotic curve)&nbsp;| T12 - S1:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:40.560,0:19:49.280
convex forward (lordotic curve) | S1 -&nbsp;
Tailbone: concave forward (kyphotic curve)</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:49.280,0:19:52.400
Curvature abnormalities are of four types:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:52.960,0:20:05.520
Kyphosis - excessive kyphotic curve | Lordosis&nbsp;</p>



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>excessive lordotic curve | Scoliosis - lateral</li>
</ul>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:05.520,0:20:14.320
curvature | Kyphoscoliosis -&nbsp;
combination of kyphosis and lordosis</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:14.320,0:20:21.920
Sacral Plexus vis-à-vis Sacral Chakra:
Sacral plexus is a nerve plexus comprising</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:21.920,0:20:29.200
sensory and motor nerves for the pelvis&nbsp;
(partly), posterior thigh, lower leg and foot.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:29.840,0:20:36.080
It originates at the lumbar and&nbsp;
sacral vertebrae namely L4 - S4.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:36.080,0:20:41.200
It is a formation that comprises:
The lumbosacral trunk | The anterior division</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:41.200,0:20:48.960
of the first sacral nerve | Parts of the anterior&nbsp;
divisions of the 2nd and 3rd sacral nerves</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:48.960,0:20:53.520
The nerves of the sacral plexus meet&nbsp;
at the greater sciatic foramen making</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:53.520,0:20:59.920
a flattened band there. From here, new&nbsp;
branches turn into the sciatic nerve,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:59.920,0:21:05.760
ultimately splitting into the tibial and&nbsp;
fibular nerves in the posterior thigh.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:05.760,0:21:11.280
Sacral plexus is positioned at the back of&nbsp;
the pelvis and is fed by the superior and</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:11.280,0:21:18.000
inferior gluteal arteries and veins.
A closed sacral chakra happens when</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:18.000,0:21:22.480
the nerves in the sacral plexus are&nbsp;
subjected to long-term compression.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:23.200,0:21:28.320
It takes place through the dropping of the sacral&nbsp;
vertebrae and the resulting distortion of the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:28.320,0:21:35.440
lower S of the double S shaped vertebral column.
Constant compression of the sacral plexus results</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:35.440,0:21:41.200
in the suppression of the aesthetic of our&nbsp;
instinctual structure. The roles of the root</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:41.200,0:21:48.560
chakra and the sacral chakra are just the opposite&nbsp;
of each other. The root chakra takes care of the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:48.560,0:21:56.560
basic survival and material safety or security.&nbsp;
Conversely, the sacral chakra is concerned with</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:56.560,0:22:04.720
whatever is beautiful in life and gives it&nbsp;
meaning. Its concerns, including curiosity,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:04.720,0:22:12.320
creativity, sexual drive and potency, fill&nbsp;
the pursuit of life with joy and passion.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:13.040,0:22:18.560
Symptoms that point to the existence of the&nbsp;
sacral chakra, including all kinds of sexual</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:18.560,0:22:25.760
problems like premature ejaculation,&nbsp;
impotence, ejaculatory incompetence,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:25.760,0:22:33.200
orgasmic dysfunction, vaginismus, frigidity and&nbsp;
a poor sex performance owing to the lack of a</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:33.200,0:22:41.760
mature orgasm in men and women are all lifestyle&nbsp;
diseases that stem from a closed sacral chakra.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:41.760,0:22:47.840
A constantly compressed sacral plexus afflicts&nbsp;
the sexual process with various types of sexual</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:47.840,0:22:53.360
dysfunctions. But once the compression&nbsp;
is released through raising the sacral</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:53.360,0:23:00.320
vertebrae up in the vertebral column, they start&nbsp;
getting relieved. Then, it is just a question</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:00.320,0:23:07.840
of keeping the vertebral column raised at its&nbsp;
sacral region by making it one’s first nature.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:07.840,0:23:14.800
There is a caveat here. The sacral chakra&nbsp;
cannot be effectively opened until and unless</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:14.800,0:23:23.120
the root chakra below it is already opened.
Solar Plexus vis-à-vis Solar Plexus Chakra:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:23.120,0:23:29.680
The solar plexus aka celiac plexus is&nbsp;
located in the vicinity of the thoracic</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:29.680,0:23:36.320
diaphragm near the first lumbar vertebra&nbsp;
in the vertebral column. It comprises:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:36.960,0:23:42.400
Splanchnic nerves - paired visceral nerves&nbsp;
with fibers from autonomic nervous system</p>

the vagus nerve with fibers from the&nbsp;
left vagus primarily | Posterior vagal</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:58.000,0:24:04.480
trunk - a branch of vagus nerve with&nbsp;
fibers from the right vagus primarily</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:04.480,0:24:09.120
Solar plexus also comprises&nbsp;
smaller plexuses within, namely:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:09.120,0:24:15.920
Hepatic plexus - receiving filaments from&nbsp;
left vagus and right phrenic nerves | Splenic</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:15.920,0:24:22.720
plexus - formed by the left celiac ganglion and&nbsp;
the right vagus nerve | Gastric plexus - joining</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:22.720,0:24:28.240
branches from the left vagus nerve |&nbsp;
Pancreatic plexus - another solar plexus</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:28.240,0:24:37.360
division | Suprarenal plexus - receiving branches&nbsp;
from the celiac ganglion and splanchnic nerves</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:37.360,0:24:42.720
Solar plexus chakra arises from the L1&nbsp;
vertebra being dropped and tucked in,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:42.720,0:24:46.720
thereby compressing the thoracic&nbsp;
diaphragm along its length.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:47.440,0:24:53.600
A closed solar plexus chakra acutely disturbs&nbsp;
the breathing pattern, turning it shallow and</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:53.600,0:25:00.960
speedier. It makes one prone to breathing-related&nbsp;
illnesses. As a result, diffidence creeps into</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:00.960,0:25:07.760
one’s persona causing one to lose their spirit&nbsp;
of interaction, adventure and initiative.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:08.480,0:25:13.360
Belly fat leading to obesity, lower&nbsp;
back pain, and breathing problems,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:13.360,0:25:20.640
including asthmatic symptoms, are the lifestyle&nbsp;
diseases that stem from the solar plexus chakra.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:20.640,0:25:25.440
The way to open the solar plexus chakra is&nbsp;
simply to remove its compression by raising</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:25.440,0:25:34.080
the L1 up and out. It further pronounces the lower&nbsp;
S of the double S shape in the vertebral column.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:34.080,0:25:41.360
Once we have learnt how to effectively do&nbsp;
this, we just need to make it our first nature.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:41.360,0:25:48.560
There is a caveat here. Solar plexus chakra cannot&nbsp;
be effectively opened unless the root chakra and</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:48.560,0:25:56.560
the sacral chakra below it are already opened.
Pectoral Muscles vis-à-vis Heart Chakra:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:56.560,0:26:02.560
Innervated by the lateral pectoral nerve (C5 - C7)&nbsp;
and the medial pectoral nerve (C8 - T1), pectoral</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:02.560,0:26:07.520
muscles have two parts:
Pectoralis major - flexes,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:07.520,0:26:15.040
extends and rotates humerus | Pectoralis&nbsp;
minor - stabilizes the scapula</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:15.040,0:26:19.920
The pectoralis major is a thick,&nbsp;
fan-shaped convergent muscle located</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:19.920,0:26:26.800
in the chest. Its functions are flexion,&nbsp;
extension and rotation of the humerus.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:26.800,0:26:30.720
It performs four movements for the shoulder joint:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:32.080,0:26:38.960
Flexion of the humerus like in heavy weight&nbsp;
lifting while doing biceps curls | Adduction</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:38.960,0:26:44.800
of the humerus like in arm-flapping |&nbsp;
Rotating the humerus medially like in</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:44.800,0:26:52.720
arm-wrestling | Keeping arms attached to&nbsp;
torso like in military “attention” posture</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:53.440,0:26:58.720
Out of the above four actions, only&nbsp;
the second one keeps its associated</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:58.720,0:27:05.600
vertebral upper S shape intact at the C8 -&nbsp;
T1 vertebrae. The same holds good for the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:05.600,0:27:13.520
C5 - C7 vertebrae. The remaining three tend&nbsp;
to turn it into an inverted C shape. Also,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:13.520,0:27:19.120
when we stretch our body for relaxation,&nbsp;
it performs the second action alone.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:19.760,0:27:24.960
Hence, it is logical to deduce that the&nbsp;
second action is the most relaxed state</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:24.960,0:27:31.360
of the muscle. When we make it our first&nbsp;
nature, it keeps the heart chakra open.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:31.360,0:27:38.000
But when we keep it postured like in any of the&nbsp;
other three actions, it closes the heart chakra.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:38.000,0:27:45.200
It does so by turning the upper S shape of the&nbsp;
C8 - T1 vertebrae into an inverted C shape.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:45.760,0:27:51.440
The pectoralis minor is a thin, triangular&nbsp;
muscle located in the upper chest under the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:51.440,0:27:58.160
pectoralis major muscle, which is innervated by&nbsp;
the medial pectoral nerve (C8 - T1) alone. Same</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:58.160,0:28:03.440
is true about the pectoralis minor which&nbsp;
is also able to stabilize scapulae when</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:03.440,0:28:08.000
postured like in the aforementioned&nbsp;
second action of the shoulder joint.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:08.560,0:28:12.960
This second action is also the one&nbsp;
that we adopt for hugging someone.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:12.960,0:28:18.080
And that is how we know that an open&nbsp;
heart chakra is concerned most with love,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:18.080,0:28:24.000
kindness and compassion. If it is closed,&nbsp;
it leads to narrowness of the heart,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:24.000,0:28:30.560
keeping us emotionally/ passionately&nbsp;
isolated from our fellow beings on earth.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:31.360,0:28:36.080
Symptoms that point to the existence of&nbsp;
a closed heart chakra, like high blood</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:36.080,0:28:41.520
pressure or hypertension, heart attack&nbsp;
and heart failure, are all lifestyle</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:41.520,0:28:48.240
diseases that stem from the heart chakra.
There is again a caveat here. Do you see a</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:48.240,0:28:55.360
pattern repeating? The heart chakra cannot be&nbsp;
effectively opened unless the root, sacral and</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:55.360,0:29:03.680
solar plexus chakras below it are already opened.
Deltoid Muscle vis-à-vis Throat Chakra:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:03.680,0:29:10.800
Innervated by the auxiliary nerve from the&nbsp;
anterior rami of the cervical nerves at C5 and C6,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:10.800,0:29:17.840
the deltoid is located on the shoulder.&nbsp;
It comprises three sets of muscle fibers:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:18.880,0:29:23.840
Anterior (clavicular) - fibers&nbsp;
assist pectoralis major to flex the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:23.840,0:29:32.640
shoulder | Posterior (scapular) - fibers assist&nbsp;
latissimus dorsi to extend the shoulder like in</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:32.640,0:29:41.040
rowing movements | Intermediate (acromial)&nbsp;</p>



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>fibers perform shoulder abduction</li>
</ul>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:41.040,0:29:48.960
Out of these three, only the posterior or scapular&nbsp;
fibers keep their associated vertebral upper S</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:48.960,0:29:57.120
shape intact at the C5 and C6 vertebrae. The&nbsp;
other two tend to turn it into an inverted</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:57.120,0:30:06.160
C shape. Also, when we stretch our body for&nbsp;
relaxation, the posterior fibers perform alone.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:06.160,0:30:12.240
Hence it is logical to deduce that the&nbsp;
action by the posterior fibers is the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:12.240,0:30:17.280
most relaxed state of the muscle.
When we make it our first nature,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:17.280,0:30:22.720
it keeps the throat chakra open.
But when we keep it postured in</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:22.720,0:30:29.280
any other way, it closes the throat chakra.&nbsp;
It does so by turning the upper S shape of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:29.280,0:30:37.680
the C5 - C6 vertebrae into an inverted C shape.
The action by the posterior fibers is also the one</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:37.680,0:30:44.160
that brings the top ends of the scapulae closest&nbsp;
to each other. It also aligns the collarbones</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:44.160,0:30:51.920
along the neck giving it a 180o mobility to move&nbsp;
freely. And this freedom that the head experiences</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:51.920,0:30:58.320
on the neck facilitates the opening of the throat&nbsp;
chakra, which then becomes ready to open the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:58.320,0:31:05.520
next chakras (i.e. the ones in the skull). It&nbsp;
opens our pathways to intelligence and logical</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:05.520,0:31:13.440
communication. But if it is closed, it corrupts&nbsp;
our communication and logical comprehension.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:14.160,0:31:21.280
Symptoms of the throat chakra include&nbsp;
diabetes, hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:21.280,0:31:28.080
As usual, there is the same caveat here&nbsp;
as well. You guessed it right! The throat</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:28.080,0:31:34.320
chakra cannot be effectively opened&nbsp;
unless the root, sacral, solar plexus</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:34.320,0:31:43.200
and heart chakras below it are already opened.
Skull vis-à-vis Third Eye and Crown Chakras:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:43.200,0:31:49.440
The skull of the Homo sapiens is freely balanced&nbsp;
on the vertebral column at its first vertebra</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:49.440,0:31:56.640
named Atlas, denoted together by the letter C&nbsp;
(for cervical) and the number 1 (for first) as</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:56.640,0:32:04.960
C1. Occipital condyles maintain the balance&nbsp;
of the vertebral column dynamically. This is</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:32:04.960,0:32:12.320
the main reason a human head can be postured erect&nbsp;
even without the prominent supraorbital ridges and</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:32:12.320,0:32:20.720
strong muscular attachments that are necessary&nbsp;
in apes. As a result, the occipitofrontalis</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:32:20.720,0:32:27.280
(frontalis and occipitalis) muscles are only used&nbsp;
for facial expressions and central fixation of the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:32:27.280,0:32:35.280
eyes. The spinal cord, as an extension of the&nbsp;
medulla oblongata, enters the vertebral column</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:32:35.280,0:32:42.960
through foramen magnum, an occipital bone opening.
The size of the human brain has also played a</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:32:42.960,0:32:50.400
very big role in bipedal evolution. It is 3-4&nbsp;
times larger for its body size than that of its</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:32:50.400,0:32:57.920
nearest evolutionary relative, the chimpanzee.
The skull acts as a protective cavity for the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:32:57.920,0:33:06.320
brain. It houses the majority of the sense&nbsp;
organs including eyes, ears, nose and tongue.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:33:06.320,0:33:12.880
It has two parts to it, the neurocranium and&nbsp;
membraneous viscerocranium with the mandible</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:33:12.880,0:33:20.720
as the latter’s largest bone. Numerous flat bones&nbsp;
are fused together as sutures to give the human</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:33:20.720,0:33:28.640
skull its shape. The mandible is the only major&nbsp;
movable bone that engages with the neurocranium</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:33:28.640,0:33:34.800
via the temporomandibular joints.
In all, the skull has 22 bones in</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:33:34.800,0:33:43.600
it. Out of these, eight are the cranial bones:
Occipital bone | Temporal bones (2) | Parietal</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:33:43.600,0:33:49.440
bones (2) | Sphenoid bone&nbsp;|&nbsp;
Ethmoid bone | Frontal bone</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:33:50.160,0:33:53.040
There are 14 more bones in the facial skeleton:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:33:53.920,0:34:01.600
Vomer | Inferior nasal conchae (2) | Nasal&nbsp;
bones (2) | Maxilla (2) | Mandible | Palatine</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:34:01.600,0:34:07.120
bones (2) | Zygomatic bones&nbsp;
(2) | Lacrimal bones (2)</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:34:07.120,0:34:12.080
Also, there are paranasal sinuses&nbsp;
(air-filled cavities lined with</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:34:12.080,0:34:18.960
respiratory epithelium) and numerous&nbsp;
foramina (openings in the skull).</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:34:18.960,0:34:25.360
In episode 21, I had written about the third&nbsp;
eye chakra and the crown chakra coming into</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:34:25.360,0:34:31.360
existence due to bipedal evolution. I&nbsp;
had also explained how to open them by</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:34:31.360,0:34:36.880
maneuvering the temporomandibular joints.&nbsp;
You will also find a full account of the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:34:36.880,0:34:43.280
only movable temporomandibular joints in the&nbsp;
skull there. I had described it there in the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:34:43.280,0:34:49.520
context of how the mind got structured&nbsp;
and could be emptied. You can go back</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:34:49.520,0:34:56.400
and check these if you need to refresh their&nbsp;
description in context of this episode again.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:34:57.200,0:35:01.760
Symptoms that point to the existence&nbsp;
of the third eye and crown chakras</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:35:01.760,0:35:09.600
mainly include problems in one’s vision,&nbsp;
chronic headaches and signs of stress.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:35:09.600,0:35:16.320
An open third eye chakra is characterized by a&nbsp;
sharp perception. Similarly an open crown chakra</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:35:16.320,0:35:23.600
is characterized by a deep insight into life.
The two of them are very similar to each other</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:35:23.600,0:35:29.040
with only one difference between them. An&nbsp;
open crown chakra can see the macro view</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:35:29.040,0:35:34.880
of what an open third eye chakra can see&nbsp;
only the micro version. In other words,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:35:34.880,0:35:44.160
what an open third eye chakra can see in one&nbsp;
single degree, the crown chakra does in 270o.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:35:44.160,0:35:51.280
In fact, as I discovered, there are two&nbsp;
types of visual central fixation possible.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:35:51.280,0:35:58.400
One is associated with an open third eye chakra&nbsp;
alone, providing a crystal clear, bright and sharp</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:35:58.400,0:36:06.080
tunnel vision aka perception. It is achieved by&nbsp;
relaxing the frontalis muscle while accommodating</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:36:06.080,0:36:13.440
with the help of occipitalis. Everything&nbsp;
outside of this tunnel is blurred and dull.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:36:13.440,0:36:20.480
The other one is associated with both, an open&nbsp;
crown chakra and an open third eye chakra. This</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:36:20.480,0:36:27.840
central fixation provides a crystal clear, bright,&nbsp;
sharp and wide vision including peripheral vision,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:36:27.840,0:36:35.840
perception as well as empathy. It is achieved by&nbsp;
relaxing both, the frontalis and the temporalis</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:36:35.840,0:36:42.720
muscles while accommodating with the help of&nbsp;
occipitalis. In my personal opinion, this has been</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:36:42.720,0:36:49.920
my biggest discovery in the chakra discipline.
In the second type of central fixation, the eyes</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:36:49.920,0:36:58.640
turn extraordinarily bright and empathetically&nbsp;
shiny. I call this shine the real ‘smize’.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:36:58.640,0:37:04.640
Also, the sharpness of the eyesight is closely&nbsp;
linked with an insight into life. The brain’s</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:37:04.640,0:37:11.360
perception needs to be aided by the recording&nbsp;
tool that is a sharp eye. In other words,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:37:11.360,0:37:15.840
a clear vision in the eye leads&nbsp;
to a clear worldview as well.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:37:16.640,0:37:25.040
Therefore, we must really say that our eyes are&nbsp;
the real windows to the brain and not to the mind!</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:37:25.040,0:37:29.600
That is why the third eye chakra has&nbsp;
been assigned two iconic petals whereas</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:37:29.600,0:37:34.880
the crown chakra has been assigned full&nbsp;
one thousand! And that is why the crown</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:37:34.880,0:37:41.760
chakra is called the king of all chakras.
Let’s not forget that same caveat here!</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:37:41.760,0:37:48.400
The crown chakra cannot be effectively opened&nbsp;
unless third eye chakra is already opened. Also,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:37:48.400,0:37:54.640
the third eye chakra cannot be effectively&nbsp;
opened unless the throat chakra is opened.</p>

Thanks for listening to this episode&nbsp;
of Skeletal Leap: A Living Adventure!</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:38:00.560,0:38:05.840
In the next episode, I will tell&nbsp;
you about an unintended evidence</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:38:05.840,0:38:12.880
strengthening the skeletal chakra hypothesis&nbsp;
via achieving central fixation of the eyes.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:00.960,0:00:06.000
Evolution, driven by bipedalism, meant&nbsp;
that Homo sapiens were the only species</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:06.000,0:00:21.920
to function with an upright gait. This&nbsp;
changed the lengths of their legs.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:21.920,0:00:28.800
My name is Laadi Ojas. Welcome to&nbsp;
“Skeletal Leap: A Living Adventure”.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:28.800,0:00:34.160
Skeletal Leap transforms one’s&nbsp;
life into a personal heaven.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:34.160,0:00:38.320
Today’s episode will tell you&nbsp;
about how skeletal re-posturing</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:38.320,0:00:44.480
opens chakras through completing&nbsp;
our bipedal skeletal evolution.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:44.480,0:00:51.440
Human bipedalism started around 4-7 million&nbsp;
years ago when our ancestors named hominins</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:51.440,0:00:58.480
stood on their twos. As it happened, their&nbsp;
skeleton started evolving to suit itself to</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:58.480,0:01:05.040
bipedalism as much as it could. It changed&nbsp;
in its arrangement of bones with respect to</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:05.040,0:01:12.240
one another as well as in their shapes&nbsp;
and sizes. The changes involved were…</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:12.240,0:01:19.040
New arrangement and size of foot bones&nbsp;
| Hip size and shape | Knee size | Leg</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:19.040,0:01:26.160
length | Shape and orientation of&nbsp;
vertebral column | Skull orientation</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:26.160,0:01:33.200
Bipedalism made walking more energy-efficient&nbsp;
and human movement much easier. Though running</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:33.200,0:01:39.920
became less energy-efficient, walking was much&nbsp;
more important. Hence the trade-off worked.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:39.920,0:01:48.400
It increased their locomotion tremendously.
Bipedalism Driven Skeletal Evolution Details</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:48.400,0:01:54.240
There were other trade-offs as well, all through&nbsp;
the skeletal system, that Homo sapiens have been</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:54.240,0:02:01.600
dealing with the adverse effects of, ever since.&nbsp;
In the rest of this episode, I will endeavor to</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:01.600,0:02:08.160
describe various parts of our skeleton while&nbsp;
pointing out those particular trade-offs that</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:08.160,0:02:15.600
apply to each of those parts. I will, then, go&nbsp;
on to describe the ideal position/ posture of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:15.600,0:02:21.520
those parts while bringing our attention to how&nbsp;
we have gotten used to their ‘unhealthy’ versions.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:22.240,0:02:26.320
This will be followed by descriptions&nbsp;
of the corresponding biological/</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:26.320,0:02:33.920
psychological ailments arising from those&nbsp;
‘unhealthy’ positions/ postures. Finally,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:33.920,0:02:40.640
I will arrive at my most significant discovery&nbsp;
and thesis which is to ascribe the appropriate</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:40.640,0:02:46.400
chakras to these ‘unhealthy’ positions/&nbsp;
postures and their resultant ailments.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:47.120,0:02:53.280
Needless to say, this will be accompanied with&nbsp;
the necessary actions required to dissolve those</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:53.280,0:02:57.120
chakras.
Foot:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:57.120,0:03:03.680
With the help of newly evolved larger heels,&nbsp;
the foot increased in size. This enabled it</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:03.680,0:03:08.880
to work like a platform on which the body&nbsp;
weight could easily rest. It also turned</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:08.880,0:03:15.360
the toes smaller than before as they were no&nbsp;
more used to grasp things like tree trunks.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:16.160,0:03:22.400
The foot, as a platform, didn’t evolve as&nbsp;
a flat surface but did so as an arched one.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:22.400,0:03:27.200
This arching distributed the body weight along&nbsp;
the feet from their heels to their balls behind</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:27.200,0:03:34.000
the big toes. This weight distribution&nbsp;
conserved a lot of energy while walking.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:34.000,0:03:39.040
Here, I feel the need to share my observations&nbsp;
from training people in re-posturing through</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:39.040,0:03:46.160
Skeletal Leap. The energy conservation in walking&nbsp;
resulting from body weight distribution is the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:46.160,0:03:54.240
ideal state. What I have noticed in the majority&nbsp;
of my trainees is something different. Owing to</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:54.240,0:03:59.600
posturing their body in a wrong way over years&nbsp;
and years, they distribute their body weight</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:59.600,0:04:06.080
on the outsides of their feet. Most of them&nbsp;
do so toward the outer sides of their heels</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:06.080,0:04:13.120
whereas the rest do toward their little toes. The&nbsp;
first thing I always check in my trainees is the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:13.120,0:04:21.840
soles of their shoes. More specifically, where&nbsp;
those soles have worn the most. My data suggest</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:21.840,0:04:28.080
that most of the modern Homo sapiens distribute&nbsp;
their body weight on their feet the wrong way.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:28.080,0:04:35.760
Today, the human foot is a complex structure&nbsp;
of 26 bones, 33 joints and hundreds of muscles,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:35.760,0:04:40.080
tendons and ligaments. The&nbsp;
main joints of the foot are:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:40.080,0:04:46.960
Ankle joint | Subtalar joint |&nbsp;
Interphalangeal foot articulations</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:46.960,0:04:53.760
A foot has three parts to it:
The hindfoot comprises the ankle bone (talus)</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:53.760,0:05:00.880
and heel bone (calcaneus). The ankle bone connects&nbsp;
to tibia and fibula in the lower leg and forms the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:00.880,0:05:08.080
ankle joint. At its other end, it connects&nbsp;to&nbsp;
the heel bone and forms the subtalar joint.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:08.080,0:05:15.840
The midfoot has five bones: the cuboid, navicular&nbsp;
and three cuneiform bones from its arches,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:15.840,0:05:20.400
serving as a shock absorber. It is&nbsp;
connected to the hindfoot and the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:20.400,0:05:27.680
forefoot with muscles and plantar fascia.&nbsp;
The forefoot comprises five toes and five</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:27.680,0:05:35.040
proximal long bones forming metatarsus. Toe&nbsp;
bones are called phalanges. The joints among</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:35.040,0:05:40.800
these phalanges are named interphalangeal&nbsp;
joints while joints of phalanges with</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:40.800,0:05:48.240
metatarsus are named metatarsophalangeal joints.
The human foot has two longitudinal and one</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:48.240,0:05:54.480
transverse arches. They make walking&nbsp;
and running more energy-efficient.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:54.480,0:05:57.200
Knee:
Human knee joints</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:57.200,0:06:01.920
have also evolved to support the increased&nbsp;
body weight between just the two of them,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:01.920,0:06:09.360
as opposed to among the four before bipedalism.
The degree of knee extension, meaning the angle</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:09.360,0:06:16.720
between the thigh and the shank in the walking&nbsp;
cycle, has decreased. This change called double</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:16.720,0:06:23.040
knee action reduces energy lost by vertical&nbsp;
displacement of the center of gravity. It</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:23.040,0:06:31.040
enables Homo sapiens to keep their knees straight&nbsp;
right under the body, improving its balance.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:31.040,0:06:36.080
The knee joins the thigh and the leg with&nbsp;
two joints, tibiofemoral joint connecting</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:36.080,0:06:42.160
femur with tibia and patellofemoral&nbsp;
joint connecting femur and patella.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:42.160,0:06:48.640
This modified hinge joint is the largest&nbsp;
joint in the body. It very efficiently</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:48.640,0:06:56.000
permits flexion and extension along with&nbsp;
a limited internal and external rotation.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:56.000,0:07:01.200
Limbs:
Evolution, driven by bipedalism, meant that Homo</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:01.200,0:07:08.000
sapiens were the only species to function with an&nbsp;
upright gait. This changed the lengths of their</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:08.000,0:07:14.800
legs. Today, leg muscles are the ones that give&nbsp;
a push, through their ankles, to the action of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:14.800,0:07:23.840
walking. Longer legs also give an effortless swing&nbsp;
to the steps without using the muscles every time.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:23.840,0:07:30.640
Since forelimbs, or hands as we now call them,&nbsp;
don’t play any role in the action of walking, they</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:30.640,0:07:37.520
have been freed to be used for other activities.
Bipedal evolution provided Homo sapiens with</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:37.520,0:07:44.240
upper limbs for visually guided manipulation and&nbsp;
lower limbs for mechanically guided bipedal gait.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:44.880,0:07:51.440
It also optimized the location of the body’s&nbsp;
center of gravity. It further reorganized the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:51.440,0:07:58.720
internal organs and the biomechanism of the trunk&nbsp;
through a double S shaped vertebral column. Today,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:58.720,0:08:05.920
the double S shape of the vertebral column is&nbsp;
an efficient shock absorber. The entire skeletal</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:05.920,0:08:12.240
system thus efficiently shifts the weight&nbsp;
of the upper body to the sole of the feet.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:12.240,0:08:18.880
Long, load bearing legs are also&nbsp;
very nicely optimized for bipedalism.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:18.880,0:08:25.200
All the large joints of the lower limb are&nbsp;
aligned in a vertically oriented straight line.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:25.200,0:08:30.960
Hip and Pelvis:
Bipedalism also resulted in larger hip</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:30.960,0:08:38.240
joints than before to better support the entire&nbsp;
body weight. It made the hip shorter and broader,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:38.240,0:08:44.480
bringing the vertebral column closer to itself.&nbsp;
This re-arrangement provided a more stable</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:44.480,0:08:51.440
base for the support of the trunk while walking&nbsp;
upright. The ilium broadened, thereby adjusting</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:51.440,0:08:58.480
the walls of the pelvis to face laterally.
The size of the gluteus muscles increased as well,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:58.480,0:09:06.640
enabling Homo sapiens to assume a balanced stance&nbsp;
even on just one leg. The sacrum turned broader,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:06.640,0:09:11.920
thus increasing the opening of the birth&nbsp;
canal in the females of the species.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:11.920,0:09:18.320
Three pelvic bones fused into one as the hip bone.&nbsp;
Today, the hip joins the head of the femur to the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:18.320,0:09:25.760
acetabulum of the pelvis. This joint supports&nbsp;
the weight of the body in its static as well as</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:25.760,0:09:33.680
dynamic state. Thus, the hip joint retains balance&nbsp;
and maintains the pelvic inclination angle.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:33.680,0:09:38.560
Pelvic Tilt:
Pelvic tilt is a movable postural orientation</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:38.560,0:09:45.280
of the pelvis. It is an orientation relative to&nbsp;
the thigh bones, knee joints and the soles of the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:45.280,0:09:51.840
feet below. It also changes the orientation&nbsp;
of the hip joint. When postured right, it</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:51.840,0:09:59.840
subtly supports the weight of the vertebral column&nbsp;
above it while keeping its double S shape intact.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:59.840,0:10:04.800
But that is just a description of&nbsp;
the ideal pelvic orientation. A major</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:04.800,0:10:10.960
chunk of the human population habitually&nbsp;
keeps this pelvic tilt wrongly postured.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:10.960,0:10:15.120
There are two reasons for this&nbsp;
unhealthy habit formation.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:15.760,0:10:21.920
The first one is the downward pull by gravity on&nbsp;
its orientation. People give in to this constant</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:21.920,0:10:29.520
downward pull when they lack enough life energy to&nbsp;
keep its orientation up. They just let the front</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:29.520,0:10:36.240
of their pelvis drop in relation to its back.&nbsp;
The newly acquired orientation called anterior</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:36.240,0:10:43.120
pelvic tilt also disrupts the orientation of&nbsp;
the hip joint. This further disrupts the double</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:43.120,0:10:49.520
S shape of the vertebral column above. Below,&nbsp;
it disrupts the load bearing distribution at</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:49.520,0:10:57.520
the knee joints and at the soles of the feet, thus&nbsp;
rendering the entire skeletal posture ‘unhealthy’.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:57.520,0:11:03.600
The second reason is an emotionally driven,&nbsp;
‘pulled-in’ psychological state that results in</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:03.600,0:11:10.800
same aforementioned ‘unhealthy’ skeletal posture.
The aforementioned anterior pelvic tilt is just</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:10.800,0:11:17.440
one, albeit the most prevalent,&nbsp;
of its many abnormal orientations.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:17.440,0:11:21.200
The second most prevalent of the&nbsp;
abnormal orientations of the pelvic</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:21.200,0:11:26.720
joint is the posterior pelvic tilt.
Here is a complete list of pelvic</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:26.720,0:11:32.640
tilt abnormalities as and when its&nbsp;
orientation gets wrongly postured:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:34.080,0:11:41.280
Anterior pelvic tilt drops the front of the pelvis&nbsp;
relative to the back of the pelvis. It shortens</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:41.280,0:11:50.960
the hip flexors and lengthens the hip extensors.
Posterior pelvic tilt raises the front of the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:50.960,0:11:55.200
pelvic relative to the back of&nbsp;
the pelvis. It lengthens the hip</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:55.200,0:12:03.680
flexors and shortens the hip extensors.
Lateral pelvic tilt happens when one</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:03.680,0:12:10.400
keeps pelvis tilted to left or right&nbsp;
habitually, resulting in scoliosis.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:11.600,0:12:18.960
Left pelvic tilt keeps the right side of&nbsp;
the pelvis raised more than the left side.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:20.400,0:12:27.280
Right pelvic tilt keeps the left side of&nbsp;
the pelvis raised more than the right side.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:27.280,0:12:32.800
Tailbone vis-à-vis Root Chakra:
Pelvic tilt is the sole cause of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:32.800,0:12:38.240
a closed root chakra appearing at the&nbsp;
lowest point, coccyx (aka tailbone),</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:38.240,0:12:46.080
of the vertebral column. Coccyx lies very near the&nbsp;
pelvic belt. And the pelvic tilt drops it down and</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:46.080,0:12:53.280
pushes it forward in the case of a posterior&nbsp;
pelvic tilt. When the pelvic tilt is anterior,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:53.280,0:13:01.600
it still drops the coccyx down but pushes it&nbsp;
backward this time. Both these maneuvers sow the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:01.600,0:13:08.480
seed of closed chakras eventually distorting&nbsp;
the double S curve of the vertebral column.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:08.480,0:13:14.560
A closed root chakra also disrupts the anatomy&nbsp;
and hence the physiology of the pelvis,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:14.560,0:13:23.360
hip and the lower limb. It disrupts the&nbsp;
pelvic, hip, knee, ankle and subtalar joints</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:23.360,0:13:31.440
with interphalangeal articulations of the feet and&nbsp;
the associated muscles, nerves and blood vessels.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:31.440,0:13:40.880
As a result, the tailbone (coccyx) drops down as&nbsp;
well as moves forward or backward at the pelvis.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:41.600,0:13:49.040
The body weight distribution on the hip, knees&nbsp;
and soles of the feet gets distorted centering its</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:49.040,0:13:57.280
thrust on the wrong points. With the passage of&nbsp;
time, one develops knee pain, sciatica, varicose</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:57.280,0:14:05.040
veins and constipation in case of posterior pelvic&nbsp;
tilt. When it is due to anterior pelvic tilt,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:05.040,0:14:12.320
constipation gets replaced with chronic diarrhea.
Symptoms of root chakra blockage are indicators of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:12.320,0:14:18.960
lifestyle diseases related to the root chakra.
It makes us feel ungrounded biologically</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:18.960,0:14:23.280
as well as psychologically. Hence&nbsp;
it keeps us perennially concerned</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:23.280,0:14:31.920
with survival and material security in life.
More specifically, a posterior pelvic tilt turns</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:31.920,0:14:40.560
us into misers who fear losing whatever little&nbsp;
we have. Biologically, this manifests as</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:40.560,0:14:48.400
constipation, belly fat and/ or hemorrhoids.
On the other hand, an anterior pelvic tilt</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:48.400,0:14:57.360
turns us into spendthrifts. Contrary to common&nbsp;
perception, this comes from a place of greed.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:57.360,0:15:02.720
Here, I’d like to bring our attention back to&nbsp;
a point I made earlier, i.e., the opposite of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:02.720,0:15:09.360
fear is not courage but greed. Therefore,&nbsp;
it makes us believe that our wealth would</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:09.360,0:15:17.520
never deplete even when a lot of it gets lost.&nbsp;
Biologically, this leads to chronic diarrhea.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:17.520,0:15:20.960
Both types of pelvic tilts are&nbsp;
accompanied by other symptoms</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:20.960,0:15:27.200
such as acidity and loss of appetite.
Opening the root chakra reverses the wrong</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:27.200,0:15:34.240
done to the pelvic tilt and makes the ideal&nbsp;
pelvic posture one’s first nature. Doing away</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:34.240,0:15:42.000
with our pelvic tilt tends to start the first&nbsp;
step toward a ‘healthy’ skeletal re-posturing.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:42.000,0:15:45.520
Vertebral Column:
The vertebral column</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:45.520,0:15:52.080
of Homo sapiens, in its natural posture,&nbsp;
has a forward bend in its lumbar region.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:52.080,0:15:59.360
Above this, it has a backward bend in its thoracic&nbsp;
region. Together, these two bends give rise to the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:59.360,0:16:05.920
double S shape of the vertebral column. Without&nbsp;
its forward bend in its lumbar region, the body</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:05.920,0:16:14.000
would have kept leaning forward. In that case it&nbsp;
would have needed a huge effort to stand upright.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:14.000,0:16:18.480
The forward bend in the lumbar region and&nbsp;
the backward bend in the thoracic region</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:18.480,0:16:24.000
keep the body straight. These two bends&nbsp;
do so by keeping the body’s center of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:24.000,0:16:29.760
gravity vertically in line with its feet.
The vertebral column is what makes Homo</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:29.760,0:16:38.080
sapiens a vertebrate that has a long chain of&nbsp;
vertebrae separated by intervertebral discs.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:38.080,0:16:43.520
Their nomenclature is done by their region&nbsp;
– denoted by a letter – within the vertebral</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:43.520,0:16:51.440
column and their position – denoted by a number&nbsp;
– within that region. The vertebral column also</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:51.440,0:17:00.000
has a spinal canal for housing the spinal cord.
Nomenclature of the vertebrae: Cervical spine 7</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:00.000,0:17:09.840
vertebrae (C1 - C7) | Thoracic spine 12&nbsp;
vertebrae (T1 - T12) | Lumbar spine 5</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:09.840,0:17:21.600
vertebrae (L1 -L5) | Sacrum 5 fused vertebrae&nbsp;
(S1 -S5) | Coccyx 4 fused vertebrae (Tailbone)</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:21.600,0:17:29.600
There are 33 vertebrae in the vertebral column.&nbsp;
The upper 24 of them are of the articulating type</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:29.600,0:17:37.440
and separated from one another by intervertebral&nbsp;
discs. The lower 9 of them are of the fused type</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:37.440,0:17:45.520
in human adults, 5 in the sacrum and 4&nbsp;
in the coccyx. Ligaments at the front,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:45.520,0:17:51.440
back and in between the vertebrae&nbsp;
help lengthen the vertebral column.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:51.440,0:17:59.120
These ligaments join the spinous processes, the&nbsp;
transverse processes and the vertebral laminae.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:59.120,0:18:06.320
Atlas and axis are the topmost vertebrae in&nbsp;
the cervical region and they support the head.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:06.320,0:18:12.320
Vertebral body and vertebral arch are the&nbsp;
two parts of a vertebra placed anteriorly and</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:12.320,0:18:20.320
posteriorly respectively. These two parts that are&nbsp;
in contact with each other enclose the vertebral</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:20.320,0:18:27.520
foramen through which the spinal cord passes.
The vertebral arch comprises two pedicles</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:27.520,0:18:34.640
and two laminae. The arch performs seven&nbsp;
processes out of which 4 are articular,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:34.640,0:18:42.240
2 are transverse and one is spinous (aka neural&nbsp;
spine). The spinous process comes out the back</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:42.240,0:18:49.200
and the two transverse processes come out left&nbsp;
and right respectively. Vertebrae are joined by</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:49.200,0:18:56.080
a thin portion of the neural arch called the&nbsp;
pars interarticularis with facet joints that</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:56.080,0:19:03.920
allow a restricted movement. Each pair of two&nbsp;
vertebrae contains two small holes between them.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:04.640,0:19:10.720
These holes are named intervertebral foramina.&nbsp;
Spinal nerves go out of the spinal cord to</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:10.720,0:19:16.400
the organs through these holes.
As a result of bipedal evolution,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:16.400,0:19:23.680
the vertebral column got curved at numerous places&nbsp;
to stabilize the body in an upright position.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:23.680,0:19:29.280
Here is a list of curves in the vertebral&nbsp;
column comprising their vertebrae:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:29.280,0:19:40.560
C2 - T2: convex forward (lordotic curve) | T2 -&nbsp;
T12: concave forward (kyphotic curve)&nbsp;| T12 - S1:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:40.560,0:19:49.280
convex forward (lordotic curve) | S1 -&nbsp;
Tailbone: concave forward (kyphotic curve)</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:49.280,0:19:52.400
Curvature abnormalities are of four types:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:52.960,0:20:05.520
Kyphosis - excessive kyphotic curve | Lordosis&nbsp;</p>



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>excessive lordotic curve | Scoliosis - lateral</li>
</ul>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:05.520,0:20:14.320
curvature | Kyphoscoliosis -&nbsp;
combination of kyphosis and lordosis</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:14.320,0:20:21.920
Sacral Plexus vis-à-vis Sacral Chakra:
Sacral plexus is a nerve plexus comprising</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:21.920,0:20:29.200
sensory and motor nerves for the pelvis&nbsp;
(partly), posterior thigh, lower leg and foot.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:29.840,0:20:36.080
It originates at the lumbar and&nbsp;
sacral vertebrae namely L4 - S4.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:36.080,0:20:41.200
It is a formation that comprises:
The lumbosacral trunk | The anterior division</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:41.200,0:20:48.960
of the first sacral nerve | Parts of the anterior&nbsp;
divisions of the 2nd and 3rd sacral nerves</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:48.960,0:20:53.520
The nerves of the sacral plexus meet&nbsp;
at the greater sciatic foramen making</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:53.520,0:20:59.920
a flattened band there. From here, new&nbsp;
branches turn into the sciatic nerve,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:59.920,0:21:05.760
ultimately splitting into the tibial and&nbsp;
fibular nerves in the posterior thigh.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:05.760,0:21:11.280
Sacral plexus is positioned at the back of&nbsp;
the pelvis and is fed by the superior and</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:11.280,0:21:18.000
inferior gluteal arteries and veins.
A closed sacral chakra happens when</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:18.000,0:21:22.480
the nerves in the sacral plexus are&nbsp;
subjected to long-term compression.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:23.200,0:21:28.320
It takes place through the dropping of the sacral&nbsp;
vertebrae and the resulting distortion of the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:28.320,0:21:35.440
lower S of the double S shaped vertebral column.
Constant compression of the sacral plexus results</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:35.440,0:21:41.200
in the suppression of the aesthetic of our&nbsp;
instinctual structure. The roles of the root</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:41.200,0:21:48.560
chakra and the sacral chakra are just the opposite&nbsp;
of each other. The root chakra takes care of the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:48.560,0:21:56.560
basic survival and material safety or security.&nbsp;
Conversely, the sacral chakra is concerned with</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:56.560,0:22:04.720
whatever is beautiful in life and gives it&nbsp;
meaning. Its concerns, including curiosity,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:04.720,0:22:12.320
creativity, sexual drive and potency, fill&nbsp;
the pursuit of life with joy and passion.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:13.040,0:22:18.560
Symptoms that point to the existence of the&nbsp;
sacral chakra, including all kinds of sexual</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:18.560,0:22:25.760
problems like premature ejaculation,&nbsp;
impotence, ejaculatory incompetence,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:25.760,0:22:33.200
orgasmic dysfunction, vaginismus, frigidity and&nbsp;
a poor sex performance owing to the lack of a</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:33.200,0:22:41.760
mature orgasm in men and women are all lifestyle&nbsp;
diseases that stem from a closed sacral chakra.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:41.760,0:22:47.840
A constantly compressed sacral plexus afflicts&nbsp;
the sexual process with various types of sexual</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:47.840,0:22:53.360
dysfunctions. But once the compression&nbsp;
is released through raising the sacral</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:53.360,0:23:00.320
vertebrae up in the vertebral column, they start&nbsp;
getting relieved. Then, it is just a question</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:00.320,0:23:07.840
of keeping the vertebral column raised at its&nbsp;
sacral region by making it one’s first nature.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:07.840,0:23:14.800
There is a caveat here. The sacral chakra&nbsp;
cannot be effectively opened until and unless</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:14.800,0:23:23.120
the root chakra below it is already opened.
Solar Plexus vis-à-vis Solar Plexus Chakra:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:23.120,0:23:29.680
The solar plexus aka celiac plexus is&nbsp;
located in the vicinity of the thoracic</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:29.680,0:23:36.320
diaphragm near the first lumbar vertebra&nbsp;
in the vertebral column. It comprises:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:36.960,0:23:42.400
Splanchnic nerves - paired visceral nerves&nbsp;
with fibers from autonomic nervous system</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:42.400,0:23:50.320
and organs innervating visceral organs&nbsp;
| Anterior vagal trunk - a branch of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:50.320,0:23:58.000
the vagus nerve with fibers from the&nbsp;
left vagus primarily | Posterior vagal</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:58.000,0:24:04.480
trunk - a branch of vagus nerve with&nbsp;
fibers from the right vagus primarily</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:04.480,0:24:09.120
Solar plexus also comprises&nbsp;
smaller plexuses within, namely:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:09.120,0:24:15.920
Hepatic plexus - receiving filaments from&nbsp;
left vagus and right phrenic nerves | Splenic</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:15.920,0:24:22.720
plexus - formed by the left celiac ganglion and&nbsp;
the right vagus nerve | Gastric plexus - joining</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:22.720,0:24:28.240
branches from the left vagus nerve |&nbsp;
Pancreatic plexus - another solar plexus</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:28.240,0:24:37.360
division | Suprarenal plexus - receiving branches&nbsp;
from the celiac ganglion and splanchnic nerves</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:37.360,0:24:42.720
Solar plexus chakra arises from the L1&nbsp;
vertebra being dropped and tucked in,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:42.720,0:24:46.720
thereby compressing the thoracic&nbsp;
diaphragm along its length.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:47.440,0:24:53.600
A closed solar plexus chakra acutely disturbs&nbsp;
the breathing pattern, turning it shallow and</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:53.600,0:25:00.960
speedier. It makes one prone to breathing-related&nbsp;
illnesses. As a result, diffidence creeps into</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:00.960,0:25:07.760
one’s persona causing one to lose their spirit&nbsp;
of interaction, adventure and initiative.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:08.480,0:25:13.360
Belly fat leading to obesity, lower&nbsp;
back pain, and breathing problems,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:13.360,0:25:20.640
including asthmatic symptoms, are the lifestyle&nbsp;
diseases that stem from the solar plexus chakra.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:20.640,0:25:25.440
The way to open the solar plexus chakra is&nbsp;
simply to remove its compression by raising</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:25.440,0:25:34.080
the L1 up and out. It further pronounces the lower&nbsp;
S of the double S shape in the vertebral column.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:34.080,0:25:41.360
Once we have learnt how to effectively do&nbsp;
this, we just need to make it our first nature.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:41.360,0:25:48.560
There is a caveat here. Solar plexus chakra cannot&nbsp;
be effectively opened unless the root chakra and</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:48.560,0:25:56.560
the sacral chakra below it are already opened.
Pectoral Muscles vis-à-vis Heart Chakra:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:56.560,0:26:02.560
Innervated by the lateral pectoral nerve (C5 - C7)&nbsp;
and the medial pectoral nerve (C8 - T1), pectoral</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:02.560,0:26:07.520
muscles have two parts:
Pectoralis major - flexes,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:07.520,0:26:15.040
extends and rotates humerus | Pectoralis&nbsp;
minor - stabilizes the scapula</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:15.040,0:26:19.920
The pectoralis major is a thick,&nbsp;
fan-shaped convergent muscle located</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:19.920,0:26:26.800
in the chest. Its functions are flexion,&nbsp;
extension and rotation of the humerus.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:26.800,0:26:30.720
It performs four movements for the shoulder joint:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:32.080,0:26:38.960
Flexion of the humerus like in heavy weight&nbsp;
lifting while doing biceps curls | Adduction</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:38.960,0:26:44.800
of the humerus like in arm-flapping |&nbsp;
Rotating the humerus medially like in</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:44.800,0:26:52.720
arm-wrestling | Keeping arms attached to&nbsp;
torso like in military “attention” posture</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:53.440,0:26:58.720
Out of the above four actions, only&nbsp;
the second one keeps its associated</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:58.720,0:27:05.600
vertebral upper S shape intact at the C8 -&nbsp;
T1 vertebrae. The same holds good for the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:05.600,0:27:13.520
C5 - C7 vertebrae. The remaining three tend&nbsp;
to turn it into an inverted C shape. Also,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:13.520,0:27:19.120
when we stretch our body for relaxation,&nbsp;
it performs the second action alone.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:19.760,0:27:24.960
Hence, it is logical to deduce that the&nbsp;
second action is the most relaxed state</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:24.960,0:27:31.360
of the muscle. When we make it our first&nbsp;
nature, it keeps the heart chakra open.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:31.360,0:27:38.000
But when we keep it postured like in any of the&nbsp;
other three actions, it closes the heart chakra.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:38.000,0:27:45.200
It does so by turning the upper S shape of the&nbsp;
C8 - T1 vertebrae into an inverted C shape.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:45.760,0:27:51.440
The pectoralis minor is a thin, triangular&nbsp;
muscle located in the upper chest under the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:51.440,0:27:58.160
pectoralis major muscle, which is innervated by&nbsp;
the medial pectoral nerve (C8 - T1) alone. Same</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:58.160,0:28:03.440
is true about the pectoralis minor which&nbsp;
is also able to stabilize scapulae when</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:03.440,0:28:08.000
postured like in the aforementioned&nbsp;
second action of the shoulder joint.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:08.560,0:28:12.960
This second action is also the one&nbsp;
that we adopt for hugging someone.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:12.960,0:28:18.080
And that is how we know that an open&nbsp;
heart chakra is concerned most with love,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:18.080,0:28:24.000
kindness and compassion. If it is closed,&nbsp;
it leads to narrowness of the heart,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:24.000,0:28:30.560
keeping us emotionally/ passionately&nbsp;
isolated from our fellow beings on earth.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:31.360,0:28:36.080
Symptoms that point to the existence of&nbsp;
a closed heart chakra, like high blood</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:36.080,0:28:41.520
pressure or hypertension, heart attack&nbsp;
and heart failure, are all lifestyle</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:41.520,0:28:48.240
diseases that stem from the heart chakra.
There is again a caveat here. Do you see a</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:48.240,0:28:55.360
pattern repeating? The heart chakra cannot be&nbsp;
effectively opened unless the root, sacral and</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:55.360,0:29:03.680
solar plexus chakras below it are already opened.
Deltoid Muscle vis-à-vis Throat Chakra:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:03.680,0:29:10.800
Innervated by the auxiliary nerve from the&nbsp;
anterior rami of the cervical nerves at C5 and C6,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:10.800,0:29:17.840
the deltoid is located on the shoulder.&nbsp;
It comprises three sets of muscle fibers:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:18.880,0:29:23.840
Anterior (clavicular) - fibers&nbsp;
assist pectoralis major to flex the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:23.840,0:29:32.640
shoulder | Posterior (scapular) - fibers assist&nbsp;
latissimus dorsi to extend the shoulder like in</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:32.640,0:29:41.040
rowing movements | Intermediate (acromial)&nbsp;</p>



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>fibers perform shoulder abduction</li>
</ul>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:41.040,0:29:48.960
Out of these three, only the posterior or scapular&nbsp;
fibers keep their associated vertebral upper S</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:48.960,0:29:57.120
shape intact at the C5 and C6 vertebrae. The&nbsp;
other two tend to turn it into an inverted</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:57.120,0:30:06.160
C shape. Also, when we stretch our body for&nbsp;
relaxation, the posterior fibers perform alone.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:06.160,0:30:12.240
Hence it is logical to deduce that the&nbsp;
action by the posterior fibers is the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:12.240,0:30:17.280
most relaxed state of the muscle.
When we make it our first nature,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:17.280,0:30:22.720
it keeps the throat chakra open.
But when we keep it postured in</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:22.720,0:30:29.280
any other way, it closes the throat chakra.&nbsp;
It does so by turning the upper S shape of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:29.280,0:30:37.680
the C5 - C6 vertebrae into an inverted C shape.
The action by the posterior fibers is also the one</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:37.680,0:30:44.160
that brings the top ends of the scapulae closest&nbsp;
to each other. It also aligns the collarbones</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:44.160,0:30:51.920
along the neck giving it a 180o mobility to move&nbsp;
freely. And this freedom that the head experiences</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:51.920,0:30:58.320
on the neck facilitates the opening of the throat&nbsp;
chakra, which then becomes ready to open the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:58.320,0:31:05.520
next chakras (i.e. the ones in the skull). It&nbsp;
opens our pathways to intelligence and logical</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:05.520,0:31:13.440
communication. But if it is closed, it corrupts&nbsp;
our communication and logical comprehension.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:14.160,0:31:21.280
Symptoms of the throat chakra include&nbsp;
diabetes, hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:21.280,0:31:28.080
As usual, there is the same caveat here&nbsp;
as well. You guessed it right! The throat</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:28.080,0:31:34.320
chakra cannot be effectively opened&nbsp;
unless the root, sacral, solar plexus</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:34.320,0:31:43.200
and heart chakras below it are already opened.
Skull vis-à-vis Third Eye and Crown Chakras:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:43.200,0:31:49.440
The skull of the Homo sapiens is freely balanced&nbsp;
on the vertebral column at its first vertebra</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:49.440,0:31:56.640
named Atlas, denoted together by the letter C&nbsp;
(for cervical) and the number 1 (for first) as</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:56.640,0:32:04.960
C1. Occipital condyles maintain the balance&nbsp;
of the vertebral column dynamically. This is</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:32:04.960,0:32:12.320
the main reason a human head can be postured erect&nbsp;
even without the prominent supraorbital ridges and</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:32:12.320,0:32:20.720
strong muscular attachments that are necessary&nbsp;
in apes. As a result, the occipitofrontalis</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:32:20.720,0:32:27.280
(frontalis and occipitalis) muscles are only used&nbsp;
for facial expressions and central fixation of the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:32:27.280,0:32:35.280
eyes. The spinal cord, as an extension of the&nbsp;
medulla oblongata, enters the vertebral column</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:32:35.280,0:32:42.960
through foramen magnum, an occipital bone opening.
The size of the human brain has also played a</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:32:42.960,0:32:50.400
very big role in bipedal evolution. It is 3-4&nbsp;
times larger for its body size than that of its</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:32:50.400,0:32:57.920
nearest evolutionary relative, the chimpanzee.
The skull acts as a protective cavity for the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:32:57.920,0:33:06.320
brain. It houses the majority of the sense&nbsp;
organs including eyes, ears, nose and tongue.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:33:06.320,0:33:12.880
It has two parts to it, the neurocranium and&nbsp;
membraneous viscerocranium with the mandible</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:33:12.880,0:33:20.720
as the latter’s largest bone. Numerous flat bones&nbsp;
are fused together as sutures to give the human</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:33:20.720,0:33:28.640
skull its shape. The mandible is the only major&nbsp;
movable bone that engages with the neurocranium</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:33:28.640,0:33:34.800
via the temporomandibular joints.
In all, the skull has 22 bones in</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:33:34.800,0:33:43.600
it. Out of these, eight are the cranial bones:
Occipital bone | Temporal bones (2) | Parietal</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:33:43.600,0:33:49.440
bones (2) | Sphenoid bone&nbsp;|&nbsp;
Ethmoid bone | Frontal bone</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:33:50.160,0:33:53.040
There are 14 more bones in the facial skeleton:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:33:53.920,0:34:01.600
Vomer | Inferior nasal conchae (2) | Nasal&nbsp;
bones (2) | Maxilla (2) | Mandible | Palatine</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:34:01.600,0:34:07.120
bones (2) | Zygomatic bones&nbsp;
(2) | Lacrimal bones (2)</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:34:07.120,0:34:12.080
Also, there are paranasal sinuses&nbsp;
(air-filled cavities lined with</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:34:12.080,0:34:18.960
respiratory epithelium) and numerous&nbsp;
foramina (openings in the skull).</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:34:18.960,0:34:25.360
In episode 21, I had written about the third&nbsp;
eye chakra and the crown chakra coming into</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:34:25.360,0:34:31.360
existence due to bipedal evolution. I&nbsp;
had also explained how to open them by</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:34:31.360,0:34:36.880
maneuvering the temporomandibular joints.&nbsp;
You will also find a full account of the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:34:36.880,0:34:43.280
only movable temporomandibular joints in the&nbsp;
skull there. I had described it there in the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:34:43.280,0:34:49.520
context of how the mind got structured&nbsp;
and could be emptied. You can go back</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:34:49.520,0:34:56.400
and check these if you need to refresh their&nbsp;
description in context of this episode again.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:34:57.200,0:35:01.760
Symptoms that point to the existence&nbsp;
of the third eye and crown chakras</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:35:01.760,0:35:09.600
mainly include problems in one’s vision,&nbsp;
chronic headaches and signs of stress.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:35:09.600,0:35:16.320
An open third eye chakra is characterized by a&nbsp;
sharp perception. Similarly an open crown chakra</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:35:16.320,0:35:23.600
is characterized by a deep insight into life.
The two of them are very similar to each other</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:35:23.600,0:35:29.040
with only one difference between them. An&nbsp;
open crown chakra can see the macro view</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:35:29.040,0:35:34.880
of what an open third eye chakra can see&nbsp;
only the micro version. In other words,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:35:34.880,0:35:44.160
what an open third eye chakra can see in one&nbsp;
single degree, the crown chakra does in 270o.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:35:44.160,0:35:51.280
In fact, as I discovered, there are two&nbsp;
types of visual central fixation possible.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:35:51.280,0:35:58.400
One is associated with an open third eye chakra&nbsp;
alone, providing a crystal clear, bright and sharp</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:35:58.400,0:36:06.080
tunnel vision aka perception. It is achieved by&nbsp;
relaxing the frontalis muscle while accommodating</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:36:06.080,0:36:13.440
with the help of occipitalis. Everything&nbsp;
outside of this tunnel is blurred and dull.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:36:13.440,0:36:20.480
The other one is associated with both, an open&nbsp;
crown chakra and an open third eye chakra. This</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:36:20.480,0:36:27.840
central fixation provides a crystal clear, bright,&nbsp;
sharp and wide vision including peripheral vision,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:36:27.840,0:36:35.840
perception as well as empathy. It is achieved by&nbsp;
relaxing both, the frontalis and the temporalis</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:36:35.840,0:36:42.720
muscles while accommodating with the help of&nbsp;
occipitalis. In my personal opinion, this has been</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:36:42.720,0:36:49.920
my biggest discovery in the chakra discipline.
In the second type of central fixation, the eyes</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:36:49.920,0:36:58.640
turn extraordinarily bright and empathetically&nbsp;
shiny. I call this shine the real ‘smize’.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:36:58.640,0:37:04.640
Also, the sharpness of the eyesight is closely&nbsp;
linked with an insight into life. The brain’s</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:37:04.640,0:37:11.360
perception needs to be aided by the recording&nbsp;
tool that is a sharp eye. In other words,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:37:11.360,0:37:15.840
a clear vision in the eye leads&nbsp;
to a clear worldview as well.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:37:16.640,0:37:25.040
Therefore, we must really say that our eyes are&nbsp;
the real windows to the brain and not to the mind!</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:37:25.040,0:37:29.600
That is why the third eye chakra has&nbsp;
been assigned two iconic petals whereas</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:37:29.600,0:37:34.880
the crown chakra has been assigned full&nbsp;
one thousand! And that is why the crown</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:37:34.880,0:37:41.760
chakra is called the king of all chakras.
Let’s not forget that same caveat here!</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:37:41.760,0:37:48.400
The crown chakra cannot be effectively opened&nbsp;
unless third eye chakra is already opened. Also,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:37:48.400,0:37:54.640
the third eye chakra cannot be effectively&nbsp;
opened unless the throat chakra is opened.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:37:54.640,0:38:00.560
Thanks for listening to this episode&nbsp;
of Skeletal Leap: A Living Adventure!</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:38:00.560,0:38:05.840
In the next episode, I will tell&nbsp;
you about an unintended evidence</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:38:05.840,0:38:12.880
strengthening the skeletal chakra hypothesis&nbsp;
via achieving central fixation of the eyes.</p>

Welcome back to the 24th episode of Skeletal Leap: A Living Adventure!



Today’s episode titled “Fix Your Body Posture for an Amazing Chakra Cleanse!” will tell you about how skeletal re-posturing opens chakras through completing our bipedal skeletal evolution.



As it happened, their skeleton started evolving to suit itself to bipedalism as much as it could.



It changed in its arrangement of bones with respect to one another as well as in their shapes and sizes.





Though running became less energy-efficient, walking was much more important.



Hence the trade-off worked.



It increased their locomotion tremendously.



SKELETAL LEAP, the mind body connection for mind and body healing, is a giant leap that our skeleton can take through the way it postures its joints.



I had stumbled upon this miracle many years ago, coincidentally







Fix Your Body Posture for an Amazing Chakra Cleanse! - Show Notes





In this 24th episode of Skeletal Leap, titled “Fix Your Body Posture for An Amazing Chakra Cleanse!”, I take you along to a bio-historical journey of Homo sapiens and how our evolution has shaped not only our physical structure but also our energetic pathways.



Join me as I explore the intricacies of bipedalism and its profound impact on our skeletal system. From the evolution of our legs to the restructuring of our hips and pelvis, this episode uncovers how these adaptations have allowed us to walk upright and the trade-offs that came with these changes.



Discover how improper postures can lead to various biological and psychological ailments, and learn about the significant connection between these ailments and the corresponding chakras affected.&nbsp;



I share my insights on how to correct these postures to promote healing and balance.



This episode emphasizes the importance of understanding our anatomy and how it relates to our energy systems, providing you with practical actions to dissolve blockages and enhance your overall well-being.



Get ready to embark on a journey of self-discovery and healing through the lens of skeletal evolution and chakra alignment!

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Welcome back to the 23rd episode of Skeletal Leap: A Living Adventure!</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Today’s episode titled “<strong>Release Stress: Psychological Stress Vs Biological Stress!</strong>” will tell you about what stress really means in terms of chakras and skeletal postures.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Stress is a situation perceived by an organism either as a threat or a challenge that needs to be coped with.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">In case of Homo sapiens, this type of situation has two layers to it. The first one is biological stress and the second, psychological.</p>





<p class="wp-block-paragraph">SKELETAL LEAP, the mind body connection for mind and body healing, is a giant leap that our <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skeleton" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">skeleton</a> can take through the way it postures its joints.</p>



<p class="p1 wp-block-paragraph">I had stumbled upon this miracle many years ago, coincidentally</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Welcome back to another enlightening episode of Skeletal Leap: A Living Adventure!</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">In today’s episode titled “Release Stress: Psychological Stress Vs Biological Stress,” I explain the multifaceted nature of stress, exploring its biological and psychological dimensions.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Join me as I unpack the layers of stress, revealing how both external and internal factors contribute to our experiences of psychological pain.&nbsp;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Discover the two primary forms of stress that affect Homo sapiens: biological stress, managed by our nervous system, and psychological stress, which is interpreted through our minds.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Learn about the intricate workings of the autonomic nervous system and the HPA axis, and how they respond to perceived threats or challenges.&nbsp;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">This episode will also cover the various stressors, from acute challenges to chronic pressures, and their profound impacts on our health and well-being.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Additionally, I share insights into the pioneering work of Hans Selye, who laid the groundwork for our understanding of stress and its effects on the body.&nbsp;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Explore the concept of hardiness and how adopting a lightness mindset can transform our approach to stress management.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Through the lens of Skeletal Leap, you’ll discover how skeletal re-posturing and chakra opening can alleviate stress, leading to a healthier mind-body connection.&nbsp;</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:01.120,0:00:06.880
The source of psychological stress can&nbsp;
either be external or internal, but in</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:06.880,0:00:26.480
both cases one internalizes the resultant pain.
My name is Laadi Ojas. Welcome to “Skeletal Leap:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:26.480,0:00:34.160
A Living Adventure”. Skeletal Leap&nbsp;
transforms one’s life into a personal heaven.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:34.160,0:00:38.400
Today’s episode will tell you&nbsp;
about what stress really means</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:38.400,0:00:43.440
in terms of chakras and skeletal postures.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:43.440,0:00:48.160
Stress is a situation perceived by&nbsp;
an organism either as a threat or a</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:48.160,0:00:54.320
challenge that needs to be coped with.
In case of Homo sapiens, this type of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:54.320,0:01:02.240
situation has two layers to it. The first one is&nbsp;
biological stress and the second, psychological.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:02.240,0:01:06.960
In the case of biological stress, it&nbsp;
is the nervous system that perceives</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:06.960,0:01:12.080
it as a threat or challenge. But in&nbsp;
the case of psychological stress,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:12.080,0:01:19.680
it is the mind that comprehends the brain’s&nbsp;
perception as either a threat or as a challenge.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:19.680,0:01:24.080
Biological Stress
In Homo sapiens, the following</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:24.080,0:01:29.760
biological systems respond to stress:</p>



<ol class="wp-block-list">
<li>Autonomic nervous system</li>
</ol>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:29.760,0:01:40.880</p>



<ol start="2" class="wp-block-list">
<li>Hypothalamic pituitary adrenal (HPA) axis
Sympathoadrenal medullary (SAM) axis is capable,</li>
</ol>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:40.880,0:01:45.680
via the sympathetic nervous system, of&nbsp;
switching a ‘fight or flight’ response</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:45.680,0:01:52.720
on. It directs a major portion of the body’s&nbsp;
energy resources to cope with the perceived</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:52.720,0:01:59.600
stress before returning to homeostasis&nbsp;
via the parasympathetic nervous system.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:59.600,0:02:06.480
On the other hand, the HPA axis releases cortisol&nbsp;
to take care of metabolic and immunological</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:06.480,0:02:14.640
functions in the meantime. The SAM and HPA axes&nbsp;
are regulated by the following brain regions:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:14.640,0:02:24.160
Limbic system | Prefrontal cortex |&nbsp;
Amygdala | Hypothalamus | Stria terminalis</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:24.160,0:02:30.960
These coping mechanisms perceive stressors&nbsp;
as one among the five possible categories:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:30.960,0:02:37.120</p>



<ol class="wp-block-list">
<li>Acute time-limited stressors&nbsp;
posing a short term challenge</li>
</ol>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:37.120,0:02:43.520</p>



<ol start="2" class="wp-block-list">
<li>Brief naturalistic stressors&nbsp;</li>
</ol>



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>normal yet challenging</li>
</ul>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:43.520,0:02:50.880</p>



<ol start="3" class="wp-block-list">
<li>Stressful event sequences - sudden&nbsp;
onset continuing in immediate future</li>
</ol>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:50.880,0:02:56.720</p>



<ol start="4" class="wp-block-list">
<li>Chronic stressors continuing&nbsp;
for long terms in future</li>
</ol>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:56.720,0:03:03.440</p>



<ol start="5" class="wp-block-list">
<li>Distant stressors - set&nbsp;
to affect in distant future</li>
</ol>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:03.440,0:03:09.840
Physiological stress disturbs the organism’s&nbsp;
homeostasis which responds by stimulating the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:09.840,0:03:16.240
nervous, endocrine and immune systems.&nbsp;
This activates physical changes showing</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:16.240,0:03:23.440
their short or long term effects on the body.
Homeostasis is an ideal state of biochemical</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:23.440,0:03:30.960
equilibrium. It often keeps getting disrupted by&nbsp;
internal and external stimuli, thereby keeping it</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:30.960,0:03:37.840
in a state of continual flux. But if and when&nbsp;
this disruption goes beyond a certain range,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:37.840,0:03:44.080
we experience it as stress.
In the presence of acute stress,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:44.080,0:03:49.440
the sympathetic nervous system takes over&nbsp;
with a ‘fight or flight’ response involving:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:49.440,0:03:57.480
Mydriasis | Increased heart beats |&nbsp;
Vasoconstriction | Glycogenolysis |</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:57.480,0:04:05.280
Bronchodilation | Gluconeogenesis | Sweating&nbsp;
| Lipolysis | Decreased motility of digestive</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:05.280,0:04:14.400
system | Apinephrine and cortisol secretion from&nbsp;
adrenal medulla | Relaxation of bladder wall</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:14.400,0:04:18.560
After having coped with stress,&nbsp;
the parasympathetic nervous system</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:18.560,0:04:24.240
reestablishes ‘rest and digest’&nbsp;
aka homeostasis response involving:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:24.240,0:04:33.120
Miosis | Bronchoconstriction | Increased motility&nbsp;
of digestive system | Contraction of bladder walls</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:33.120,0:04:40.240
The HPA axis is a neuroendocrine system for stress&nbsp;
response which stimulates the steroid hormones.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:41.600,0:04:48.480
Stress also affects the immune system negatively.
In fact, chronic long-term stress affects</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:48.480,0:04:53.280
our quality of life by creating:
Immune system dysfunction | Chronic</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:53.280,0:04:59.120
diseases | Impaired growth in children&nbsp;
| Fibromyalgia | Chronic fatigue</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:59.120,0:05:08.320
syndrome | Depression | Functional somatic&nbsp;
syndromes | Heart disease | Asthma | Diabetes</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:08.320,0:05:16.480
| Headaches | Alzheimer’s disease | Accelerated&nbsp;
aging | Premature death | Insomnia | Eating</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:16.480,0:05:25.840
disorders | Anxiety and panic attacks | Colds&nbsp;
and viruses | Circulatory problems | Cancer</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:25.840,0:05:32.160
It is not only negative stressors that add to the&nbsp;
stress level, even the positive stressors do the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:32.160,0:05:38.720
same. Here is a list of some categories&nbsp;
that some common stressors belong to:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:38.720,0:05:46.960</p>



<ol class="wp-block-list">
<li>Sensory inputs like pain, bright&nbsp;
lights, noise, temperatures, etc.</li>
</ol>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:46.960,0:05:57.120</p>



<ol start="2" class="wp-block-list">
<li>Environmental issues like lack of food,&nbsp;
water, housing, health, freedom, mobility, etc.</li>
</ol>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:57.120,0:06:06.800</p>



<ol start="3" class="wp-block-list">
<li>Social issues like struggles, defeats,&nbsp;
relationship conflicts, deception, break ups,</li>
</ol>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:06.800,0:06:16.560
births, deaths, marriages, divorces, etc.</p>



<ol start="4" class="wp-block-list">
<li>Life experiences like poverty, sudden</li>
</ol>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:16.560,0:06:24.000
wealth acquisition, unemployment,&nbsp;
depression, OCD, lack of sleep,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:24.000,0:06:34.720
performance pressures, exams, deadlines, etc.</p>



<ol start="5" class="wp-block-list">
<li>Accidental experiences like sexual abuse,</li>
</ol>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:34.720,0:06:40.320
traumas, etc.
Psychological Stress</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:40.320,0:06:45.680
Psychological stress is a feeling of&nbsp;
emotional pain. Small amounts of them</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:45.680,0:06:52.960
are manageable as well as motivating at&nbsp;
times but their excess is debilitating.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:52.960,0:06:58.720
The source of psychological stress can&nbsp;
either be external or internal, but in</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:58.720,0:07:07.120
both cases one internalizes the resultant pain.
Hans Selye&nbsp;came up with quite a few experiments</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:07.120,0:07:16.080
on stress and its theories in the 1930s. He&nbsp;
conceived the theory of universal, non-specific</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:16.080,0:07:23.680
stress response and initiated extensive&nbsp;
research programs in academic physiology.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:23.680,0:07:31.040
Despite wide acceptance of his theories,&nbsp;
experimental physiologists soon started opposing</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:31.040,0:07:39.840
what they considered ‘vague’ approaches in his&nbsp;
research. Hence, in the 1950s, he turned away from</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:39.840,0:07:47.840
experimental physiology and started promoting his&nbsp;
theories via popular books and public speeches.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:47.840,0:07:54.320
His book titled ‘Stress of Life’&nbsp;addressed&nbsp;
to the general public turned out</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:54.320,0:08:00.080
to be an international bestseller.
His was a biopsychosocial concept of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:00.080,0:08:07.680
stress and dynamic adaptation to changing global&nbsp;
challenges. It promised health and happiness to</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:07.680,0:08:16.080
anyone that successfully employed this approach.
He coined the terms ‘eustress’ for positive stress</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:16.080,0:08:23.680
and ‘distress’ for negative stress. He also coined&nbsp;
the term ‘stressor’ to mean the cause of stress</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:23.680,0:08:31.520
as separate from the state of stress. On top of&nbsp;
it, he redefined tobacco smoking as a ‘diversion’</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:31.520,0:08:38.960
or a ‘deviation’ from environmental stress.
Starting from the latter part of the 1960s,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:38.960,0:08:44.640
psychologists increasingly adopted&nbsp;
Selye’s approach. They undertook</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:44.640,0:08:52.320
extensive research to establish connections&nbsp;
between stress and stress-related diseases.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:52.320,0:08:59.200
By the latter part of the 1970s, stress&nbsp;
had entered the common parlance globally.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:59.200,0:09:05.120
New research was conducted into the&nbsp;
neuroendocrine, molecular and immunological</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:05.120,0:09:13.280
aspects of stress. This new research is no longer&nbsp;
directly tied to Selye’s hypotheses though it</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:13.280,0:09:20.160
doesn’t negate it either. In the wake of the&nbsp;
Vietnam War, a lot of research went into the newly</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:20.160,0:09:30.320
coined ‘post-traumatic stress disorder’ (PTSD).
By the onset of the 1990s, stress had become one</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:30.320,0:09:37.680
of the biggest buzzwords while referring to&nbsp;
the modern-day health and its complications.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:37.680,0:09:41.680
The discourse on stress spanned&nbsp;
the entire spectrum from mild</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:41.680,0:09:49.920
irritation to ultimate nervous breakdown.
As recently as 2015, it was established</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:49.920,0:09:58.640
through surveys that people’s greatest stressors&nbsp;
were ‘money’, ‘family responsibility’ and ‘work’.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:58.640,0:10:06.880
A New Personality Style: Hardiness
In the year 1979, Suzanne C. Kobasa</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:06.880,0:10:11.680
had discovered a new personality&nbsp;
style, which he named ‘hardiness’.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:11.680,0:10:19.040
It referred to the ability of a person to be&nbsp;
chronically stressed yet healthy at the same time.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:19.040,0:10:25.680
This meant that the harmful effects of stress&nbsp;
were not the same for all. They were as much</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:25.680,0:10:32.400
due to stressors as they were due to the fallible&nbsp;
personality styles. And if we were able to train</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:32.400,0:10:39.680
people to adopt ‘hardiness’ as their personality&nbsp;
style, the problem of stress would be gone.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:39.680,0:10:46.960
In 1984, Salvadore Maddi with Kobasa and&nbsp;
their graduate students in the University</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:46.960,0:10:54.960
of Chicago came up with another book. The book&nbsp;
was titled “The hardy executive: Health under</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:54.960,0:11:02.880
stress”&nbsp;and it further elaborated the analysis of&nbsp;
hardiness. It carried along a series of research</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:02.880,0:11:09.440
reports done with executives in it.
Since then, a lot of further research</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:09.440,0:11:18.960
has been done on military groups, teachers,&nbsp;
firefighters and students along with executives.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:18.960,0:11:23.280
In addition, several efforts have&nbsp;
been made to train people to adopt</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:23.280,0:11:30.160
hardy personalities with mixed results.
Research is still going on as newer</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:30.160,0:11:34.480
training modules are being tried&nbsp;
to achieve definitive results.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:35.200,0:11:40.720
Hardiness suggests a personality structure&nbsp;
dispositioned along the traits of commitment,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:40.720,0:11:45.040
control and challenge:</p>



<ol class="wp-block-list">
<li>Commitment was defined</li>
</ol>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:45.040,0:11:52.640
as a trait to get involved in what one was doing.</p>



<ol start="2" class="wp-block-list">
<li>Control was defined as a trait that made one</li>
</ol>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:52.640,0:11:59.600
believe one would be able to effect a change.</p>



<ol start="3" class="wp-block-list">
<li>Challenge was defined as a trait that took</li>
</ol>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:59.600,0:12:04.720
everything including life in&nbsp;
flux rather than stability.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:04.720,0:12:09.920
In my opinion, the best example of a hardy&nbsp;
personality was the co-founder of Apple</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:09.920,0:12:17.760
Inc. named Steve Jobs. But the most charismatic&nbsp;
man that he was, he too could not keep himself</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:17.760,0:12:24.800
healthy. This exceptionally hardy man died of&nbsp;
pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor resulting in</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:24.800,0:12:31.760
respiratory arrest at a young age of 55.
What does that show? Is the entire</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:31.760,0:12:39.360
hypothesis of Suzanne C. Kobasa a faulty one?
I don’t think so. I have my own example in</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:39.360,0:12:46.400
front of me having similar (though not the same)&nbsp;
traits in my personality. And I cannot write off</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:46.400,0:12:53.680
hardiness that easily. I’m quite healthy in&nbsp;
my 70s while I am speaking these lines. As</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:53.680,0:13:00.560
you already know, although I was born with myopia&nbsp;
and contracted viral arthritis which then turned</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:00.560,0:13:07.520
into rheumatoid arthritis in six months, I&nbsp;
was able to cure both with central fixation.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:07.520,0:13:13.040
I see a huge potential in&nbsp;
Kobasa’s hypothesis of hardiness.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:13.040,0:13:20.480
A Newer Personality Style: Lightness
I would like to change a few things in Kobasa’s</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:20.480,0:13:28.320
hypothesis. First of all, I would change its name&nbsp;
from ‘Hardiness’ to ‘Lightness’. Next, I would</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:28.320,0:13:37.680
change its traits from ‘commitment, control and&nbsp;
challenge’ to ‘interest, insight and adventure’.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:37.680,0:13:44.320
Hardiness, in general, can be heavy but&nbsp;
we need it to be light rather than heavy.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:44.320,0:13:50.320
Doesn’t matter if it is hard or soft.&nbsp;
If it is light, it’ll be able to fight;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:50.320,0:13:56.800
like traveling light is always way more manageable&nbsp;
than traveling with a lot of heavy stuff.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:56.800,0:14:02.480
Commitment, as a structure of the mind,&nbsp;
requires us to believe in it. And belief</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:02.480,0:14:08.880
turns the mind heavy. On the other hand,&nbsp;
interest is an instinct generated out of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:08.880,0:14:17.920
curiosity. We don’t need to believe in it. Thus,&nbsp;
curiosity keeps our mind light. At the same time,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:17.920,0:14:26.560
it is much hardier and lighter than commitment.
Control evokes conflict. It makes our mind even</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:26.560,0:14:33.520
heavier. Insight, on the other hand, keeps it&nbsp;
light because it arises directly out of the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:33.520,0:14:41.040
lightness of curiosity and interest. Therefore,&nbsp;
it is more effective in creating change.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:41.840,0:14:49.040
Challenge, again, evokes conflict rather than&nbsp;
passion or joy. It fills us with pride which,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:49.040,0:14:53.440
in turn, makes our mind heavy.&nbsp;
Adventure, as an instinct,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:53.440,0:15:01.920
is the better alternative. It has very deep roots&nbsp;
in our psyche and it keeps us light and agile.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:01.920,0:15:08.240
These three traits - interest, insight&nbsp;
and adventure - do a splendid job of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:08.240,0:15:14.080
keeping us healthy. They are effective even&nbsp;
under the toughest of biological stresses</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:14.080,0:15:20.560
born out of an ever-changing environment.
Psychological stress doesn’t even stand a</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:20.560,0:15:27.920
chance because it vanishes the moment we become&nbsp;
carefree and ‘light’ by emptying our mind. We</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:27.920,0:15:34.720
don’t need to be heavy like dinosaurs. We just&nbsp;
need to be light like birds. That is perhaps why</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:34.720,0:15:42.240
the next phase of evolution after dinosaurs gave&nbsp;
rise to birds. This brings us to the question,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:42.240,0:15:48.080
“How can people be trained to adopt&nbsp;
lightness as a personality style?”</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:48.080,0:15:54.320
That is easy. Skeletal Leap already has a well&nbsp;
researched and documented system of opening</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:54.320,0:16:02.480
chakras through skeletal re-posturing. Once the&nbsp;
re-postured skeleton becomes one’s first nature,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:02.480,0:16:10.560
the opened chakras allow energy to rise through&nbsp;
the body. Then comes guided meditation. It pulls</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:10.560,0:16:19.520
the Kundalini upward relieving the body of stress.&nbsp;
This ascension of energy along Sushumna from the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:19.520,0:16:25.360
coccyx to the crown chakra is the same as the&nbsp;
neural communication along the vagus nerve from</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:25.360,0:16:33.600
the gut to the brain. The entire process results&nbsp;
in a state of perennial joy and unbound passion,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:33.600,0:16:40.800
turning the mind empty and hence light.&nbsp;
In our following episodes, we will see</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:40.800,0:16:48.240
how this process unfolds, step by step.

completing our bipedal skeletal evolution.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Welcome back to the 23rd episode of Skeletal Leap: A Living Adventure!</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Today’s episode titled “<strong>Release Stress: Psychological Stress Vs Biological Stress!</strong>” will tell you about what stress really means in terms of chakras and skeletal postures.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Stress is a situation perceived by an organism either as a threat or a challenge that needs to be coped with.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">In case of Homo sapiens, this type of situation has two layers to it. The first one is biological stress and the second, psychological.</p>





<p class="wp-block-paragraph">SKELETAL LEAP, the mind body connection for mind and body healing, is a giant leap that our <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skeleton" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">skeleton</a> can take through the way it postures its joints.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Welcome back to another enlightening episode of Skeletal Leap: A Living Adventure!</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">In today’s episode titled “Release Stress: Psychological Stress Vs Biological Stress,” I explain the multifaceted nature of stress, exploring its biological and psychological dimensions.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Join me as I unpack the layers of stress, revealing how both external and internal factors contribute to our experiences of psychological pain.&nbsp;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Discover the two primary forms of stress that affect Homo sapiens: biological stress, managed by our nervous system, and psychological stress, which is interpreted through our minds.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Learn about the intricate workings of the autonomic nervous system and the HPA axis, and how they respond to perceived threats or challenges.&nbsp;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">This episode will also cover the various stressors, from acute challenges to chronic pressures, and their profound impacts on our health and well-being.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Additionally, I share insights into the pioneering work of Hans Selye, who laid the groundwork for our understanding of stress and its effects on the body.&nbsp;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Explore the concept of hardiness and how adopting a lightness mindset can transform our approach to stress management.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Through the lens of Skeletal Leap, you’ll discover how skeletal re-posturing and chakra opening can alleviate stress, leading to a healthier mind-body connection.&nbsp;</p>

both cases one internalizes the resultant pain.

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:34.160,0:00:38.400
Today’s episode will tell you&nbsp;
about what stress really means</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:38.400,0:00:43.440
in terms of chakras and skeletal postures.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:43.440,0:00:48.160
Stress is a situation perceived by&nbsp;
an organism either as a threat or a</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:48.160,0:00:54.320
challenge that needs to be coped with.
In case of Homo sapiens, this type of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:54.320,0:01:02.240
situation has two layers to it. The first one is&nbsp;
biological stress and the second, psychological.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:02.240,0:01:06.960
In the case of biological stress, it&nbsp;
is the nervous system that perceives</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:06.960,0:01:12.080
it as a threat or challenge. But in&nbsp;
the case of psychological stress,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:12.080,0:01:19.680
it is the mind that comprehends the brain’s&nbsp;
perception as either a threat or as a challenge.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:19.680,0:01:24.080
Biological Stress
In Homo sapiens, the following</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:24.080,0:01:29.760
biological systems respond to stress:</p>



<ol class="wp-block-list">
<li>Autonomic nervous system</li>
</ol>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:29.760,0:01:40.880</p>



<ol start="2" class="wp-block-list">
<li>Hypothalamic pituitary adrenal (HPA) axis
Sympathoadrenal medullary (SAM) axis is capable,</li>
</ol>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:40.880,0:01:45.680
via the sympathetic nervous system, of&nbsp;
switching a ‘fight or flight’ response</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:45.680,0:01:52.720
on. It directs a major portion of the body’s&nbsp;
energy resources to cope with the perceived</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:52.720,0:01:59.600
stress before returning to homeostasis&nbsp;
via the parasympathetic nervous system.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:59.600,0:02:06.480
On the other hand, the HPA axis releases cortisol&nbsp;
to take care of metabolic and immunological</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:06.480,0:02:14.640
functions in the meantime. The SAM and HPA axes&nbsp;
are regulated by the following brain regions:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:14.640,0:02:24.160
Limbic system | Prefrontal cortex |&nbsp;
Amygdala | Hypothalamus | Stria terminalis</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:24.160,0:02:30.960
These coping mechanisms perceive stressors&nbsp;
as one among the five possible categories:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:30.960,0:02:37.120</p>



<ol class="wp-block-list">
<li>Acute time-limited stressors&nbsp;
posing a short term challenge</li>
</ol>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:37.120,0:02:43.520</p>



<ol start="2" class="wp-block-list">
<li>Brief naturalistic stressors&nbsp;</li>
</ol>



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>normal yet challenging</li>
</ul>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:43.520,0:02:50.880</p>



<ol start="3" class="wp-block-list">
<li>Stressful event sequences - sudden&nbsp;
onset continuing in immediate future</li>
</ol>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:50.880,0:02:56.720</p>



<ol start="4" class="wp-block-list">
<li>Chronic stressors continuing&nbsp;
for long terms in future</li>
</ol>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:56.720,0:03:03.440</p>



<ol start="5" class="wp-block-list">
<li>Distant stressors - set&nbsp;
to affect in distant future</li>
</ol>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:03.440,0:03:09.840
Physiological stress disturbs the organism’s&nbsp;
homeostasis which responds by stimulating the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:09.840,0:03:16.240
nervous, endocrine and immune systems.&nbsp;
This activates physical changes showing</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:16.240,0:03:23.440
their short or long term effects on the body.
Homeostasis is an ideal state of biochemical</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:23.440,0:03:30.960
equilibrium. It often keeps getting disrupted by&nbsp;
internal and external stimuli, thereby keeping it</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:30.960,0:03:37.840
in a state of continual flux. But if and when&nbsp;
this disruption goes beyond a certain range,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:37.840,0:03:44.080
we experience it as stress.
In the presence of acute stress,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:44.080,0:03:49.440
the sympathetic nervous system takes over&nbsp;
with a ‘fight or flight’ response involving:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:49.440,0:03:57.480
Mydriasis | Increased heart beats |&nbsp;
Vasoconstriction | Glycogenolysis |</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:57.480,0:04:05.280
Bronchodilation | Gluconeogenesis | Sweating&nbsp;
| Lipolysis | Decreased motility of digestive</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:05.280,0:04:14.400
system | Apinephrine and cortisol secretion from&nbsp;
adrenal medulla | Relaxation of bladder wall</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:14.400,0:04:18.560
After having coped with stress,&nbsp;
the parasympathetic nervous system</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:18.560,0:04:24.240
reestablishes ‘rest and digest’&nbsp;
aka homeostasis response involving:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:24.240,0:04:33.120
Miosis | Bronchoconstriction | Increased motility&nbsp;
of digestive system | Contraction of bladder walls</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:33.120,0:04:40.240
The HPA axis is a neuroendocrine system for stress&nbsp;
response which stimulates the steroid hormones.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:41.600,0:04:48.480
Stress also affects the immune system negatively.
In fact, chronic long-term stress affects</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:48.480,0:04:53.280
our quality of life by creating:
Immune system dysfunction | Chronic</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:53.280,0:04:59.120
diseases | Impaired growth in children&nbsp;
| Fibromyalgia | Chronic fatigue</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:59.120,0:05:08.320
syndrome | Depression | Functional somatic&nbsp;
syndromes | Heart disease | Asthma | Diabetes</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:08.320,0:05:16.480
| Headaches | Alzheimer’s disease | Accelerated&nbsp;
aging | Premature death | Insomnia | Eating</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:16.480,0:05:25.840
disorders | Anxiety and panic attacks | Colds&nbsp;
and viruses | Circulatory problems | Cancer</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:25.840,0:05:32.160
It is not only negative stressors that add to the&nbsp;
stress level, even the positive stressors do the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:32.160,0:05:38.720
same. Here is a list of some categories&nbsp;
that some common stressors belong to:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:38.720,0:05:46.960</p>

Psychological Stress</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:40.320,0:06:45.680
Psychological stress is a feeling of&nbsp;
emotional pain. Small amounts of them</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:45.680,0:06:52.960
are manageable as well as motivating at&nbsp;
times but their excess is debilitating.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:52.960,0:06:58.720
The source of psychological stress can&nbsp;
either be external or internal, but in</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:58.720,0:07:07.120
both cases one internalizes the resultant pain.
Hans Selye&nbsp;came up with quite a few experiments</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:07.120,0:07:16.080
on stress and its theories in the 1930s. He&nbsp;
conceived the theory of universal, non-specific</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:16.080,0:07:23.680
stress response and initiated extensive&nbsp;
research programs in academic physiology.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:23.680,0:07:31.040
Despite wide acceptance of his theories,&nbsp;
experimental physiologists soon started opposing</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:31.040,0:07:39.840
what they considered ‘vague’ approaches in his&nbsp;
research. Hence, in the 1950s, he turned away from</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:39.840,0:07:47.840
experimental physiology and started promoting his&nbsp;
theories via popular books and public speeches.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:47.840,0:07:54.320
His book titled ‘Stress of Life’&nbsp;addressed&nbsp;
to the general public turned out</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:54.320,0:08:00.080
to be an international bestseller.
His was a biopsychosocial concept of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:00.080,0:08:07.680
stress and dynamic adaptation to changing global&nbsp;
challenges. It promised health and happiness to</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:07.680,0:08:16.080
anyone that successfully employed this approach.
He coined the terms ‘eustress’ for positive stress</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:16.080,0:08:23.680
and ‘distress’ for negative stress. He also coined&nbsp;
the term ‘stressor’ to mean the cause of stress</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:23.680,0:08:31.520
as separate from the state of stress. On top of&nbsp;
it, he redefined tobacco smoking as a ‘diversion’</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:31.520,0:08:38.960
or a ‘deviation’ from environmental stress.
Starting from the latter part of the 1960s,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:38.960,0:08:44.640
psychologists increasingly adopted&nbsp;
Selye’s approach. They undertook</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:44.640,0:08:52.320
extensive research to establish connections&nbsp;
between stress and stress-related diseases.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:52.320,0:08:59.200
By the latter part of the 1970s, stress&nbsp;
had entered the common parlance globally.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:59.200,0:09:05.120
New research was conducted into the&nbsp;
neuroendocrine, molecular and immunological</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:05.120,0:09:13.280
aspects of stress. This new research is no longer&nbsp;
directly tied to Selye’s hypotheses though it</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:13.280,0:09:20.160
doesn’t negate it either. In the wake of the&nbsp;
Vietnam War, a lot of research went into the newly</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:20.160,0:09:30.320
coined ‘post-traumatic stress disorder’ (PTSD).
By the onset of the 1990s, stress had become one</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:30.320,0:09:37.680
of the biggest buzzwords while referring to&nbsp;
the modern-day health and its complications.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:37.680,0:09:41.680
The discourse on stress spanned&nbsp;
the entire spectrum from mild</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:41.680,0:09:49.920
irritation to ultimate nervous breakdown.
As recently as 2015, it was established</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:49.920,0:09:58.640
through surveys that people’s greatest stressors&nbsp;
were ‘money’, ‘family responsibility’ and ‘work’.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:58.640,0:10:06.880
A New Personality Style: Hardiness
In the year 1979, Suzanne C. Kobasa</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:06.880,0:10:11.680
had discovered a new personality&nbsp;
style, which he named ‘hardiness’.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:11.680,0:10:19.040
It referred to the ability of a person to be&nbsp;
chronically stressed yet healthy at the same time.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:19.040,0:10:25.680
This meant that the harmful effects of stress&nbsp;
were not the same for all. They were as much</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:25.680,0:10:32.400
due to stressors as they were due to the fallible&nbsp;
personality styles. And if we were able to train</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:32.400,0:10:39.680
people to adopt ‘hardiness’ as their personality&nbsp;
style, the problem of stress would be gone.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:39.680,0:10:46.960
In 1984, Salvadore Maddi with Kobasa and&nbsp;
their graduate students in the University</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:46.960,0:10:54.960
of Chicago came up with another book. The book&nbsp;
was titled “The hardy executive: Health under</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:54.960,0:11:02.880
stress”&nbsp;and it further elaborated the analysis of&nbsp;
hardiness. It carried along a series of research</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:02.880,0:11:09.440
reports done with executives in it.
Since then, a lot of further research</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:09.440,0:11:18.960
has been done on military groups, teachers,&nbsp;
firefighters and students along with executives.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:18.960,0:11:23.280
In addition, several efforts have&nbsp;
been made to train people to adopt</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:23.280,0:11:30.160
hardy personalities with mixed results.
Research is still going on as newer</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:30.160,0:11:34.480
training modules are being tried&nbsp;
to achieve definitive results.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:35.200,0:11:40.720
Hardiness suggests a personality structure&nbsp;
dispositioned along the traits of commitment,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:40.720,0:11:45.040
control and challenge:</p>



<ol class="wp-block-list">
<li>Commitment was defined</li>
</ol>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:45.040,0:11:52.640
as a trait to get involved in what one was doing.</p>



<ol start="2" class="wp-block-list">
<li>Control was defined as a trait that made one</li>
</ol>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:52.640,0:11:59.600
believe one would be able to effect a change.</p>



<ol start="3" class="wp-block-list">
<li>Challenge was defined as a trait that took</li>
</ol>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:59.600,0:12:04.720
everything including life in&nbsp;
flux rather than stability.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:04.720,0:12:09.920
In my opinion, the best example of a hardy&nbsp;
personality was the co-founder of Apple</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:09.920,0:12:17.760
Inc. named Steve Jobs. But the most charismatic&nbsp;
man that he was, he too could not keep himself</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:17.760,0:12:24.800
healthy. This exceptionally hardy man died of&nbsp;
pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor resulting in</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:24.800,0:12:31.760
respiratory arrest at a young age of 55.
What does that show? Is the entire</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:31.760,0:12:39.360
hypothesis of Suzanne C. Kobasa a faulty one?
I don’t think so. I have my own example in</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:39.360,0:12:46.400
front of me having similar (though not the same)&nbsp;
traits in my personality. And I cannot write off</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:46.400,0:12:53.680
hardiness that easily. I’m quite healthy in&nbsp;
my 70s while I am speaking these lines. As</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:53.680,0:13:00.560
you already know, although I was born with myopia&nbsp;
and contracted viral arthritis which then turned</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:00.560,0:13:07.520
into rheumatoid arthritis in six months, I&nbsp;
was able to cure both with central fixation.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:07.520,0:13:13.040
I see a huge potential in&nbsp;
Kobasa’s hypothesis of hardiness.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:13.040,0:13:20.480
A Newer Personality Style: Lightness
I would like to change a few things in Kobasa’s</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:20.480,0:13:28.320
hypothesis. First of all, I would change its name&nbsp;
from ‘Hardiness’ to ‘Lightness’. Next, I would</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:28.320,0:13:37.680
change its traits from ‘commitment, control and&nbsp;
challenge’ to ‘interest, insight and adventure’.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:37.680,0:13:44.320
Hardiness, in general, can be heavy but&nbsp;
we need it to be light rather than heavy.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:44.320,0:13:50.320
Doesn’t matter if it is hard or soft.&nbsp;
If it is light, it’ll be able to fight;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:50.320,0:13:56.800
like traveling light is always way more manageable&nbsp;
than traveling with a lot of heavy stuff.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:56.800,0:14:02.480
Commitment, as a structure of the mind,&nbsp;
requires us to believe in it. And belief</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:02.480,0:14:08.880
turns the mind heavy. On the other hand,&nbsp;
interest is an instinct generated out of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:08.880,0:14:17.920
curiosity. We don’t need to believe in it. Thus,&nbsp;
curiosity keeps our mind light. At the same time,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:17.920,0:14:26.560
it is much hardier and lighter than commitment.
Control evokes conflict. It makes our mind even</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:26.560,0:14:33.520
heavier. Insight, on the other hand, keeps it&nbsp;
light because it arises directly out of the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:33.520,0:14:41.040
lightness of curiosity and interest. Therefore,&nbsp;
it is more effective in creating change.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:41.840,0:14:49.040
Challenge, again, evokes conflict rather than&nbsp;
passion or joy. It fills us with pride which,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:49.040,0:14:53.440
in turn, makes our mind heavy.&nbsp;
Adventure, as an instinct,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:53.440,0:15:01.920
is the better alternative. It has very deep roots&nbsp;
in our psyche and it keeps us light and agile.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:01.920,0:15:08.240
These three traits - interest, insight&nbsp;
and adventure - do a splendid job of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:08.240,0:15:14.080
keeping us healthy. They are effective even&nbsp;
under the toughest of biological stresses</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:14.080,0:15:20.560
born out of an ever-changing environment.
Psychological stress doesn’t even stand a</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:20.560,0:15:27.920
chance because it vanishes the moment we become&nbsp;
carefree and ‘light’ by emptying our mind. We</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:27.920,0:15:34.720
don’t need to be heavy like dinosaurs. We just&nbsp;
need to be light like birds. That is perhaps why</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:34.720,0:15:42.240
the next phase of evolution after dinosaurs gave&nbsp;
rise to birds. This brings us to the question,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:42.240,0:15:48.080
“How can people be trained to adopt&nbsp;
lightness as a personality style?”</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:48.080,0:15:54.320
That is easy. Skeletal Leap already has a well&nbsp;
researched and documented system of opening</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:54.320,0:16:02.480
chakras through skeletal re-posturing. Once the&nbsp;
re-postured skeleton becomes one’s first nature,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:02.480,0:16:10.560
the opened chakras allow energy to rise through&nbsp;
the body. Then comes guided meditation. It pulls</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:10.560,0:16:19.520
the Kundalini upward relieving the body of stress.&nbsp;
This ascension of energy along Sushumna from the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:19.520,0:16:25.360
coccyx to the crown chakra is the same as the&nbsp;
neural communication along the vagus nerve from</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:25.360,0:16:33.600
the gut to the brain. The entire process results&nbsp;
in a state of perennial joy and unbound passion,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:33.600,0:16:40.800
turning the mind empty and hence light.&nbsp;
In our following episodes, we will see</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:40.800,0:16:48.240
how this process unfolds, step by step.

Welcome back to the 23rd episode of Skeletal Leap: A Living Adventure!



Today’s episode titled “Release Stress: Psychological Stress Vs Biological Stress!” will tell you about what stress really means in terms of chakras and skeletal postures.



Stress is a situation perceived by an organism either as a threat or a challenge that needs to be coped with.



In case of Homo sapiens, this type of situation has two layers to it. The first one is biological stress and the second, psychological.





SKELETAL LEAP, the mind body connection for mind and body healing, is a giant leap that our skeleton can take through the way it postures its joints.



I had stumbled upon this miracle many years ago, coincidentally







Release Stress: Psychological Stress Vs Biological Stress! - Show Notes





Welcome back to another enlightening episode of Skeletal Leap: A Living Adventure!



In today’s episode titled “Release Stress: Psychological Stress Vs Biological Stress,” I explain the multifaceted nature of stress, exploring its biological and psychological dimensions.



Join me as I unpack the layers of stress, revealing how both external and internal factors contribute to our experiences of psychological pain.&nbsp;



Discover the two primary forms of stress that affect Homo sapiens: biological stress, managed by our nervous system, and psychological stress, which is interpreted through our minds.



Learn about the intricate workings of the autonomic nervous system and the HPA axis, and how they respond to perceived threats or challenges.&nbsp;



This episode will also cover the various stressors, from acute challenges to chronic pressures, and their profound impacts on our health and well-being.



Additionally, I share insights into the pioneering work of Hans Selye, who laid the groundwork for our understanding of stress and its effects on the body.&nbsp;



Explore the concept of hardiness and how adopting a lightness mindset can transform our approach to stress management.



Through the lens of Skeletal Leap, you’ll discover how skeletal re-posturing and chakra opening can alleviate stress, leading to a healthier mind-body connection.&nbsp;



Tune in to learn how to cultivate resilience and lightness in your life.



Here you will find:

Latest developments in genomic&nbsp;
research and technology have made</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:05.120,0:00:22.080
it possible to sequence genomes of&nbsp;
any species from the tree of life.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:22.080,0:00:26.560
My name is Laadi Ojas. Welcome to “Skeletal Leap:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:26.560,0:00:34.400
A Living Adventure”. Skeletal Leap&nbsp;
transforms one’s life into a personal heaven.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:34.400,0:00:39.040
Today’s episode will tell you about&nbsp;
how lifestyle diseases and immune</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:39.040,0:00:43.520
system dysfunction take a toll on human health.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:43.520,0:00:50.080
Summoning energy and healing lifestyle diseases&nbsp;
are the two outcomes Skeletal Leap strives to</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:50.080,0:00:56.880
achieve while filling the leftover holes in the&nbsp;
bipedal evolution of Homo sapiens along the way.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:57.600,0:01:03.680
Let’s learn a bit more about the etiology&nbsp;
and prognosis of various lifestyle diseases.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:03.680,0:01:12.000
Knowing their ins and outs will equip us to&nbsp;
eradicate them through Skeletal Leap more easily.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:12.000,0:01:20.160
Evolution of Human Disease
As life evolved, so did disease.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:20.160,0:01:27.040
Life took shape via DNA replication as well as the&nbsp;
process of adaptation. It is against this ancient</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:27.040,0:01:34.000
code that its young genetic variants interact&nbsp;
with modern environments. This interaction ends</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:34.000,0:01:40.720
up generating human disease phenotypes.
Latest developments in genomic research</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:40.720,0:01:46.000
and technology have made it possible to&nbsp;
sequence genomes of any species from the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:46.000,0:01:54.240
tree of life. Disease came into existence as&nbsp;
soon as unicellular life came into existence.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:55.280,0:02:00.560
These unicellular organisms divided&nbsp;
themselves symmetrically and, therefore,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:00.560,0:02:09.360
never died. As asymmetric cell division evolved,&nbsp;
it resulted in multicellular organisms. These</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:09.360,0:02:16.400
new organisms experienced reduced cellular&nbsp;
damage. However they paid a huge price for</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:16.400,0:02:24.880
it in the form of aging and, eventually, death.
Multicellularity further evolved many more times</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:24.880,0:02:32.720
enabling complex body structures with intricate&nbsp;
communications between them. But each step in this</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:32.720,0:02:41.440
evolutionary saga was accompanied by newer disease&nbsp;
patterns. That was how cancer, for example, came</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:41.440,0:02:50.240
to existence. It was a direct result of increased&nbsp;
DNA repairs and mutations in the caretaker genes.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:51.520,0:02:58.960
Later, gatekeeper genes appeared to regulate cell&nbsp;
growth, communication and death, thus generating</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:58.960,0:03:07.200
immune systems for the organism. Further evolution&nbsp;
of immune systems generated new diseases just</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:07.200,0:03:14.480
like multicellularity had done. Like when the&nbsp;
human immune system co-evolved with parasites,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:14.480,0:03:19.360
the parasite infection generated&nbsp;
another immune response in humans.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:20.560,0:03:28.000
New anatomical structures like eyes, limbs,&nbsp;
pregnancy, et cetera evolved through adaptation</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:28.000,0:03:35.600
and integration of already existing genes&nbsp;
with regulatory circuits. The resulting genes</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:35.600,0:03:42.800
simultaneously affect many different traits&nbsp;
and shape substrates on which new diseases</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:42.800,0:03:49.280
appear as trade offs for evolution.
Diseases have their own evolutionary</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:49.280,0:03:56.400
histories. These histories get archived in&nbsp;
our genomes. Genomic advances have enabled</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:56.400,0:04:03.920
us to read those histories in great details.
Anatomically modern humans (AMHs) first came</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:03.920,0:04:12.400
to exist in Africa around 200,000 years ago.&nbsp;
Around 100,000 years ago, they started moving</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:12.400,0:04:23.040
out of Africa and quickly spread across Eurasia.&nbsp;
From there, groups of these early AMHs expanded</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:23.040,0:04:31.920
into Americas around 35,000 to 15,000 years ago.
Once they migrated, they came into contact with</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:31.920,0:04:39.600
other archaic hominin groups like Neanderthals and&nbsp;
Denisovans. They got admixed with them carrying</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:39.600,0:04:47.120
around 2% of their ancestry from Neanderthals&nbsp;
which they still do. However, even in the modern</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:47.120,0:04:54.880
African population, traces of admixture with&nbsp;
other unknown archaic hominins have been found.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:54.880,0:05:00.400
Exponential Evolutionary Growth&nbsp;
within The Past 10,000 Years</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:00.400,0:05:06.800
After their expansion throughout the globe, humans&nbsp;
went through an exponential growth within the past</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:06.800,0:05:15.920
10,000 years. Population explosion modified&nbsp;
their genetic architecture of traits. This,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:15.920,0:05:21.440
in turn, increased their chances of&nbsp;
genetic selection for different variants.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:22.160,0:05:27.440
That is how we find considerable differences&nbsp;
in allele frequency among different</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:27.440,0:05:34.800
populations with different disease risks.
Alleles denote the variants of a certain gene;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:34.800,0:05:42.560
like ABO blood group is controlled by ABO&nbsp;
gene with six variants. Allele frequency is</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:42.560,0:05:50.640
the relative frequency of an allele at a specific&nbsp;
locus in a population expressed as a percentage.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:50.640,0:05:57.680
Evolution has never been a perfect jump or&nbsp;
adaptation from one stage to another. Also,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:57.680,0:06:03.840
genetic changes have never been able to&nbsp;
ensure the best evolutionary progress.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:03.840,0:06:12.640
Genes have existed as varied yet co-existing&nbsp;
alleles at the same location on a chromosome.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:12.640,0:06:19.360
Exposures of different human groups to&nbsp;
different new environments forced them to adapt.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:19.360,0:06:26.960
But these rapid changes and adaptations also&nbsp;
generated complex patterns of new diseases.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:26.960,0:06:34.560
Hence diseases like obesity, diabetes, heart&nbsp;
disease and other hormonal dysfunctions came</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:34.560,0:06:40.800
to existence as lifestyle diseases&nbsp;
as a result of sedentary lifestyles.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:40.800,0:06:47.520
Ancestral alleles adapted for ancient environments&nbsp;
increased the risk of disease in modern</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:47.520,0:06:57.360
environments. That is how both ancient and newly&nbsp;
derived alleles increase the risk of disease.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:57.360,0:07:04.480
And that is why ancestral risk alleles are more&nbsp;
prevalent in African populations whereas newly</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:04.480,0:07:12.000
derived alleles risk Eurasian populations more.
What makes us vulnerable to a specific disease</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:12.000,0:07:17.520
today is a recent genetic variation&nbsp;
in our ancient gene systems.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:18.640,0:07:25.600
Every single person may have unique genomes&nbsp;
depending on their genetic histories. These</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:25.600,0:07:32.400
genetic histories change with their geographical&nbsp;
journeys through evolution and adaptations to</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:32.400,0:07:40.080
different environments. Latest genomic advances&nbsp;
have enabled us to unearth every single</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:40.080,0:07:47.360
individual’s historical tendencies to various&nbsp;
illnesses in greater detail. It enables us to</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:47.360,0:07:54.800
treat their illnesses in the most individualized&nbsp;
manner, thereby making it the most effective.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:54.800,0:08:02.560
Environmental Changes Vs Genetic Disposition
But the most recent environmental changes and</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:02.560,0:08:07.920
socio-psychological factors are much&nbsp;
bigger causes of disease than genetic</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:07.920,0:08:15.040
disposition. How do we deal with them?
Ancestral susceptibility model proposes</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:15.040,0:08:24.000
that the ancestral alleles were adapted as per the&nbsp;
ancient environments. However, these alleles were</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:24.000,0:08:32.640
not flexible enough to cope with environments that&nbsp;
changed rapidly over the past 10,000 years. They</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:32.640,0:08:40.880
can then generate risks of evolutionary mismatch&nbsp;
in those changed environments leading to disease.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:40.880,0:08:48.960
Here arises a very important question that needs&nbsp;
to be answered in a very clear way. Forming of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:48.960,0:08:57.360
alleles is understandable as natural selection&nbsp;
is always a trial and error process. But what</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:57.360,0:09:05.280
makes this process so rigid as to be inept&nbsp;
at coping with rapidly changing environments?</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:05.280,0:09:10.640
Here is a quote from an article&nbsp;
from New York University. It says…</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:10.640,0:09:18.480
A new analysis concludes that the ability of&nbsp;
early humans to adjust to changing conditions</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:18.480,0:09:27.360
ultimately enabled the earliest species of Homo&nbsp;
to vary, survive, and begin spreading from Africa</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:27.360,0:09:34.640
to Eurasia, marking a reconsideration of the&nbsp;
evolutionary factors that drove these changes.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:35.840,0:09:42.160
If it is so, why aren’t we able to live&nbsp;
a healthy life anywhere on Earth today?</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:42.160,0:09:48.080
Let’s look into various diseases separately&nbsp;
to try answering this more general question</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:48.080,0:09:54.800
regarding health and disease.
Alzheimer’s disease:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:54.800,0:10:01.520
Alzheimer’s disease is a neurodegenerative&nbsp;
disease, i.e., a disease of brain cells leading</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:01.520,0:10:10.320
to gradual memory loss. It first starts with&nbsp;
forgetting the most recent events. Later it moves</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:10.320,0:10:19.760
on to affect language, orientation, emotions,&nbsp;
motivation and behavior. In the advanced stages,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:19.760,0:10:27.520
even involuntary memory begins to wane. That&nbsp;
is when the patient starts moving toward death.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:27.520,0:10:35.840
It takes a few (3-9) years, from&nbsp;
its onset to eventual demise.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:35.840,0:10:42.160
Genetic factors and environment, both play their&nbsp;
role in the progression of this disease, like any</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:42.160,0:10:49.920
other. The strongest of the genetic factors is&nbsp;
an allele of apolipoprotein E (APOE) metabolizing</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:49.920,0:10:58.400
fats in the body. Clinical depression and&nbsp;
hypertension are also the possible risk factors.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:58.400,0:11:05.840
Only 1 - 2% of the cases are inherited. Most&nbsp;
cases are sporadic with late-onset Alzheimer’s</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:05.840,0:11:12.480
disease (LOAD) afflicting after the age of 65.
I come from a family that had three of its</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:12.480,0:11:17.200
members succumbing to Alzheimer’s disease.&nbsp;
But then, there were others in the family</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:17.200,0:11:23.600
who never contracted it. I hope I am one&nbsp;
among those who never do, especially when</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:23.600,0:11:30.720
I have my central fixation intact! An open&nbsp;
crown chakra tends to keep Alzheimer’s away.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:30.720,0:11:37.120
Why do I say so? It is an insight that I got&nbsp;
from opening my crown chakra, thus curing my</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:37.120,0:11:44.400
lifelong myopia. Though when it happened, I&nbsp;
never knew what my body had done to cure me.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:45.040,0:11:50.320
It is my contention that body intelligence is&nbsp;
way bigger than the intelligence of our conscious</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:50.320,0:11:58.960
mind. It does its healing silently. And body&nbsp;
intelligence works the best when its anatomy is</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:58.960,0:12:07.280
not compromised, paving the way to its physiology&nbsp;
working impeccably. And to a certain extent,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:07.280,0:12:13.520
this intelligence works most efficiently in&nbsp;
the vicinity of its actual physical location.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:14.400,0:12:20.400
Hence, almost all the irregularities taking&nbsp;
place in the skull region are most affected</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:20.400,0:12:27.200
by the skull anatomy getting compromised.
This forms the foundation on which Skeletal</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:27.200,0:12:34.000
Leap’s case for healing lifestyle diseases&nbsp;
is built. This would then coincide with the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:34.000,0:12:40.160
healthiest phase of bipedal evolution,&nbsp;
devoid of all those leftover holes.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:40.800,0:12:47.600
This was what had cured my myopia in the first&nbsp;
place when my skull entered its healthiest phase</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:47.600,0:12:54.640
as part of my own personal bipedal evolution.
A healthy anatomy lies at the root of a healthy</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:54.640,0:13:01.600
physiology. And when the skeletal meditations&nbsp;
facilitated by Skeletal Leap open the related</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:01.600,0:13:07.040
chakra, it is the anatomy of that local&nbsp;
area which turns healthier. It turns</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:07.040,0:13:12.880
their related physiology healthier too.
The best part is that the body does all</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:12.880,0:13:16.960
this healing on its own regardless of&nbsp;
whether we are able to rationalize it</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:16.960,0:13:23.920
through logical analysis or not. This silent&nbsp;
healing process of the body is very potent.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:23.920,0:13:30.880
And this is the healing philosophy that Skeletal&nbsp;
Leap bases all its skeletal meditations on.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:30.880,0:13:36.240
They tend to heal the anatomy of the&nbsp;
body which, in turn, tends to heal the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:36.240,0:13:43.840
associated diseases based on its own superior&nbsp;
intelligence. This superior intelligence works</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:43.840,0:13:51.680
way better and way faster than any analytical&nbsp;
procedures invented by medical science to date.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:51.680,0:13:54.960
Arthritis:
Arthritis means</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:54.960,0:14:02.000
disorders affecting joints, turning them stiff&nbsp;
and painful while limiting their movement.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:02.000,0:14:10.000
Osteoarthritis is a degenerative joint disease&nbsp;
that affects fingers, knees and hips. Rheumatoid</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:10.000,0:14:18.800
arthritis is an autoimmune disease that affects&nbsp;
hands and feet. Other joint conditions like gout,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:18.800,0:14:26.640
lupus, fibromyalgia and septic arthritis are&nbsp;
all different types of rheumatic diseases.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:27.440,0:14:33.840
Arthritis, in general, can be any among the&nbsp;
following types&nbsp;characterized by joints alone:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:33.840,0:14:42.080
Osteoarthritis | Rheumatoid Arthritis | Gout&nbsp;
and Pseudo-gout | Septic Arthritis | Ankylosing</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:42.080,0:14:52.160
Spondylitis | Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis&nbsp;
| Still’s Disease | Psoriatic Arthritis</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:52.160,0:14:57.760
Joint pains can also exist as a secondary&nbsp;
symptom of some other main disease, like:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:57.760,0:15:07.520
Psoriasis | Reactive Arthritis | Ehlers-Danlos&nbsp;
Syndrome | Iron Overload | Hepatitis | Lyme</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:07.520,0:15:16.000
Disease | Sjogren’s Disease | Hashimoto’s&nbsp;
Thyroiditis | Celiac Disease | Non-celiac</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:16.000,0:15:21.680
Gluten Sensitivity | Inflammatory&nbsp;
Bowel Disease | Henoch-Schonlein</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:21.680,0:15:31.200
Purpura | Hyperimmunoglobulinemia D with&nbsp;
Recurrent Fever | Sarcoidosis | Whipple’s Disease</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:31.200,0:15:39.600
The Story of My Encounter with Arthritis
In 2019, while I was in a traumatized state</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:39.600,0:15:46.640
due to long-suppressed anger, I fell prey to&nbsp;
viral arthritis. The virus was there in the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:46.640,0:15:54.800
air in my city that year. It caught my wrists,&nbsp;
hands and fingers with an acute pain in their</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:54.800,0:16:02.960
joints. All my neighbors caught the virus too.
As I generally do in response to any infection,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:02.960,0:16:10.640
I didn’t consult any physician but decided to&nbsp;
wait and watch. Five months passed without any</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:10.640,0:16:16.800
improvement in the situation. Ultimately&nbsp;
I consulted a specialist who gave me a</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:16.800,0:16:23.840
strong course of medication for one week.&nbsp;
He assured me I would be okay within a week.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:23.840,0:16:32.000
A week later, I was not only back at his clinic&nbsp;
but my condition was worse too. I saw clear signs</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:32.000,0:16:39.040
of panic on my physician’s face. He had already&nbsp;
done the best he could have. He took a stance</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:39.040,0:16:46.720
that mine was not a case of viral arthritis as&nbsp;
such. He said it was most probably the onset of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:46.720,0:16:54.480
rheumatoid arthritis. Hence he referred me to the&nbsp;
most popular rheumatoid specialist in the city.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:55.120,0:17:00.720
This scared me because rheumatoid&nbsp;
arthritis, unlike viral arthritis,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:00.720,0:17:07.280
was an autoimmune disease. And I was aware that&nbsp;
medical science hadn’t yet been able to invent</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:07.280,0:17:16.080
a total cure for any autoimmune irregularity.
The new doctor tested my blood to assess if it</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:16.080,0:17:23.840
was, indeed, the onset of rheumatoid arthritis.&nbsp;
When he came to the conclusion that it was most</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:23.840,0:17:33.040
probably so, he started me on a course of what I&nbsp;
call “medicinal management”. It meant that I was</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:33.040,0:17:41.600
doomed to live with this condition for the rest&nbsp;
of my life, managing the disease perennially.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:41.600,0:17:47.040
I told him I wasn’t interested in disease&nbsp;
management alone. What I was interested</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:47.040,0:17:54.160
in was a complete cure. I asked him&nbsp;
if it was possible or not. If it was,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:54.160,0:17:59.520
I would prefer living a free life without&nbsp;
any precautionary conditions attached to</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:59.520,0:18:05.760
it. If it wasn’t, I would rather say&nbsp;
bye to the world. He could not say yes</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:05.760,0:18:12.000
but tried his best to change my mind and&nbsp;
gave me a month-long course of medication.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:12.640,0:18:19.600
I told him I had done my own personal research on&nbsp;
central fixation and its connection to lifestyle</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:19.600,0:18:26.320
diseases. I added that, while giving his&nbsp;
medication a shot, I would start my central</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:26.320,0:18:32.160
fixation procedure simultaneously. If, at the&nbsp;
end of the month, I was able to live without</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:32.160,0:18:40.080
his next monthly dose, I’d continue living.
In the end, to make things lighter, I said,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:40.080,0:18:47.120
“If I do, I will invite rheumatoid patients the&nbsp;
world over to come to me for a permanent cure!”</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:47.120,0:18:52.800
He was ready, smiling with his&nbsp;
funnily crisp reply, “Hey! I need</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:52.800,0:18:59.440
to put food on the table for my family too!”
I immediately started focusing on central</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:59.440,0:19:05.200
fixation of my body; something&nbsp;
I had ignored due to my trauma.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:05.200,0:19:11.280
The chakras that helped me the most in healing&nbsp;
my condition through dissolving (or opening)</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:11.280,0:19:19.600
themselves were solar plexus chakra, throat&nbsp;
chakra and crown chakra. I can understand if,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:19.600,0:19:25.200
now, you are wondering to yourself, “If&nbsp;
existence of chakras is the problem,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:25.200,0:19:32.640
how can they ‘help’?” Let me explain. Solar&nbsp;
plexus chakra opened up to keep my thoracic</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:32.640,0:19:39.200
diaphragm relaxed making my exhalations longer&nbsp;
than my inhalations while breathing. Opening</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:39.200,0:19:46.080
the throat chakra brought my arms and hands back&nbsp;
to their natural posture for good. And an open</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:46.080,0:19:56.080
crown chakra took care of my autoimmune tendency.
I lived! Not only lived, I thrived. And I have</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:56.080,0:20:02.880
never needed arthritis medication since.
Atherosclerosis:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:02.880,0:20:09.040
Atherosclerosis narrows the walls of the&nbsp;
arteries due to atheromatous plaque buildup</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:09.040,0:20:16.960
causing lesions in the artery walls. The narrowing&nbsp;
of arteries reduces the flow of oxygenated blood</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:16.960,0:20:24.320
to the associated body parts. With the passage&nbsp;
of time, it may lead to coronary artery disease,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:24.320,0:20:30.880
stroke, peripheral artery disease&nbsp;
or complications in the kidney.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:30.880,0:20:35.760
The process of atheromatous plaque&nbsp;
buildup is not well understood. It</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:35.760,0:20:42.160
retains low density lipoprotein in the walls&nbsp;
of these arteries. Whether this retention</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:42.160,0:20:48.240
is the cause or an effect of the entire&nbsp;
inflammatory process remains a mystery.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:48.880,0:20:54.960
The plaque deposited in the muscle cells of the&nbsp;
artery walls makes them stretch to accommodate</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:54.960,0:21:03.120
its bulk. This makes the artery wall stiff and&nbsp;
unable to stretch further with every heartbeat.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:03.120,0:21:09.840
The condition ends up in hypertension and heart&nbsp;
condition in the due course of time. As of now,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:09.840,0:21:16.560
its medical prognoses are largely guesswork.
I propose that opening the solar plexus</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:16.560,0:21:23.440
and heart chakras tends to both,&nbsp;
prevent and cure atherosclerosis.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:23.440,0:21:30.240
As I have pointed earlier, Skeletal Leap with&nbsp;
the help of its skeletal meditations can heal</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:30.240,0:21:38.000
the body anatomy in the region of the lungs and&nbsp;
heart, especially in the main arteries nearby.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:38.000,0:21:43.280
This healed anatomy automatically heals the&nbsp;
compromised physiology of the associated</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:43.280,0:21:51.360
organs through innate body intelligence.
This is what Hippocrates, Father of Medicine,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:51.360,0:21:59.440
meant when he said, “Disease [is] not an entity,&nbsp;
but a fluctuating condition of the patient’s body,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:59.440,0:22:06.480
a battle between the substance of disease and&nbsp;
the natural self-healing tendency of the body.”</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:06.480,0:22:11.840
Asthma:
Asthma inflames the air passages to and from the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:11.840,0:22:19.280
lungs resulting in obstruction of the breathing&nbsp;
process. It causes wheezing, coughing, a tightened</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:19.280,0:22:27.600
chest and a very short breathing pattern. Episodes&nbsp;
of asthmatic fits can occur at a frequency ranging</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:27.600,0:22:34.080
from a few times a day to a few times a week.
Asthma is considered to be a psychosomatic</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:34.080,0:22:40.880
disease, caused by a combination of genetic&nbsp;
and environmental factors. The disease doesn’t</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:40.880,0:22:47.200
have any permanent cure but is manageable&nbsp;
with the use of inhalers comprising beta-2</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:47.200,0:22:55.360
agonists like salbutamol and corticosteroids.
It is a widespread disease throughout the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:55.360,0:23:05.360
world affecting 262 million people that&nbsp;
killed 461,000 of them in 2019 alone.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:05.360,0:23:10.480
It is my contention that the chakra attached&nbsp;
to this psychosomatic disease is the solar</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:10.480,0:23:16.240
plexus chakra which tends to&nbsp;
set asthma right when opened.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:17.040,0:23:24.080
Asthma is a psychosomatic disease in which the&nbsp;
trachea gets compromised, both in its anatomy</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:24.080,0:23:32.160
and physiology. Skeletal Leap uses skeletal&nbsp;
meditations to heal its anatomy which, in turn,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:32.160,0:23:37.600
can then heal itself.
Cancer:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:37.600,0:23:44.720
Cancer signifies uncontrolled cell growth that&nbsp;
may spread to the neighboring parts of the body.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:44.720,0:23:51.600
More than 90% cases are caused by mutations&nbsp;
owing to environmental and lifestyle factors.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:51.600,0:23:59.760
The rest of them are caused by inherited genetics.
How does a normal cell turn into a cancerous cell?</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:59.760,0:24:07.600
In order to change its regulation, its genes&nbsp;
must get altered in one way or another. These</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:07.600,0:24:15.040
altered genes comprise oncogenes and tumor&nbsp;
suppressor genes. Oncogenes promote cell</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:15.040,0:24:22.080
growth and reproduction. Tumor suppressor&nbsp;
genes inhibit cell division and survival.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:22.080,0:24:27.200
Mutations cause a gain or loss&nbsp;
of a portion of a chromosome.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:27.200,0:24:34.240
So, the process develops as follows:
A mutation takes place in the error</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:34.240,0:24:40.080
correcting system in a cell.
A further mutation takes place</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:40.080,0:24:46.240
in an oncogene causing the cell to&nbsp;
grow and reproduce more speedily.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:47.200,0:24:52.000
A further mutation takes place in a&nbsp;
tumor suppressor gene causing the cell</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:52.000,0:24:59.360
to disrupt its tumor suppressing system.
A further mutation takes place in the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:59.360,0:25:05.840
signaling system of the cell causing it to send&nbsp;
erroneous signals to its neighboring cells.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:06.960,0:25:13.040
As a result, the cell in question&nbsp;
turns into a cancerous cell.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:13.040,0:25:19.680
In 2019, 18 million cancer cases were&nbsp;
reported. Annually, 8.8 million deaths</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:19.680,0:25:26.400
are caused by cancer. It remains one of the&nbsp;
biggest challenges facing medical science today.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:26.400,0:25:30.240
My study suggests that opening&nbsp;
the crown chakra is the most</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:30.240,0:25:36.720
instrumental in tending to keep cancer away.
Cancer is a disease of the immune system going</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:36.720,0:25:43.520
hay wire. Skeletal Leap contends that it can&nbsp;
heal the overall anatomy of a body afflicted</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:43.520,0:25:50.560
with cancer including its most important part&nbsp;
in the skull that houses the brain in it.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:50.560,0:25:57.120
Chronic Liver Disease or Liver Cirrhosis:
Chronic liver disease is the process of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:57.120,0:26:02.560
disruption of the entire liver structure&nbsp;
and function resulting in liver fibrosis</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:02.560,0:26:09.440
and liver cirrhosis. Liver fibrosis means&nbsp;
accumulation of extracellular matrix proteins</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:09.440,0:26:16.480
including collagen. That is what happens in&nbsp;
most kinds of chronic liver disease.&nbsp;Advanced</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:16.480,0:26:23.440
liver fibrosis ends up in liver cirrhosis&nbsp;
ultimately requiring liver transplantation.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:23.440,0:26:32.640
Signs of liver disease are associated with two&nbsp;
different parameters - decompensation and cause.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:32.640,0:26:38.480
Signs and Symptoms: Nail clubbing&nbsp;
| Palmar erythema | Spider</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:38.480,0:26:47.200
nevi&nbsp;(angiomata) | Gynaecomastia | Feminizing&nbsp;
hair distribution | Testicular atrophy | Small</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:47.200,0:26:54.240
irregular shrunken liver | Anaemia | Caput medusae</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:54.240,0:26:57.120
Signs associated with the Decompensation:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:57.120,0:27:06.480
Drowsiness | Hyperventilation | Metabolic flap&nbsp;
| Jaundice | Ascites| Leukonychia | Peripheral</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:06.480,0:27:14.720
oedema | Bruising | Acid-base imbalance,&nbsp;
most commonly&nbsp;respiratory alkalosis</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:14.720,0:27:21.680
Signs associated with the Cause: Dupuytren’s&nbsp;
contracture | Parotid | Peripheral</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:21.680,0:27:28.000
neuropathy | Cerebellar signs |&nbsp;
Liver enlargement&nbsp;| Kayser-Fleischer</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:28.000,0:27:34.800
rings | Increased pigmentation of the&nbsp;
skin | Signs of right heart failure</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:34.800,0:27:41.760
Cirrhosis is the final stage of chronic&nbsp;
liver disease. Between 1990 and 2017,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:41.760,0:27:49.840
the number of cases of decompensated cirrhosis&nbsp;
around the world rose from 5.2 million to 10.6</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:49.840,0:27:58.320
million. By 2019, cirrhosis caused 1.47&nbsp;
million deaths worldwide. The major causes</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:58.320,0:28:06.800
were alcoholism, hepatitis B and hepatitis C.
Opening the root chakra, the sacral chakra and</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:06.800,0:28:14.960
the solar plexus chakra, in my analysis, plays the&nbsp;
most important role in keeping the liver intact.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:14.960,0:28:20.320
Liver is a part of the gut and,&nbsp;
hence, Skeletal Leap addresses it</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:20.320,0:28:26.400
through skeletal meditation aimed at healing&nbsp;
the anatomy of the gut. The healed anatomy</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:26.400,0:28:32.560
tends to heal its physiology depending on&nbsp;
which stage it has already proceeded to.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:33.360,0:28:37.280
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:37.280,0:28:43.200
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)&nbsp;
is a progressive lung disease caused by chronic</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:43.200,0:28:51.520
respiratory issues. The condition is characterized&nbsp;
either by emphysema or chronic bronchitis.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:51.520,0:28:58.960
Emphysema breaks down the walls of enlarged&nbsp;
airspaces resulting in irreversible lung damage.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:59.680,0:29:08.880
In 2019, the condition took a toll of 3.23 million&nbsp;
lives. An astonishing 391.9 million cases were</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:08.880,0:29:19.280
estimated in 2019, making it almost 10% of the&nbsp;
global population aged between 30 and 79 years.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:19.280,0:29:25.680
An open solar plexus chakra tends to keep&nbsp;
chronic obstructive pulmonary disease at bay.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:26.480,0:29:33.520
Healing depends on which stage the disease has&nbsp;
already progressed to. In case irreversible lung</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:33.520,0:29:40.640
damage has not yet happened, Skeletal Leap can&nbsp;
successfully facilitate skeletal meditations to</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:40.640,0:29:48.720
heal the anatomy of the chest region. Once the&nbsp;
anatomy has healed, the physiology follows suit.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:48.720,0:29:53.120
Colitis:
Colitis is a chronic condition of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:53.120,0:30:00.800
an inflamed colon, with or without ulcers.
There are quite a few different types of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:00.800,0:30:06.720
colitis ranging from autoimmune&nbsp;
to infectious colitis, namely:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:06.720,0:30:08.878
Autoimmune Colitis: Inflammatory Bowel Disease,&nbsp;
comprising ulcerative colitis and Crohn’s disease</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:08.878,0:30:11.920
| Microscopic Colitis: comprising lymphocytic&nbsp;
colitis and collagenous colitis | Diversion</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:11.920,0:30:17.600
Colitis | Chemical Colitis |&nbsp;
Chemotherapy-induced Colitis | Radiation</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:17.600,0:30:25.600
Colitis | Checkpoint-Inhibitor-Induced Colitis&nbsp;
| Ischemic Colitis | Infectious Colitis</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:26.400,0:30:33.360
I have learnt that opening the root chakra,&nbsp;
the sacral chakra and the solar plexus chakra</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:33.360,0:30:40.080
is most instrumental in treating colitis.
The healing depends on which type of colitis</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:40.080,0:30:47.120
it is. Hence the safest bet is to heal the entire&nbsp;
body’s anatomy through skeletal meditations with</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:47.120,0:30:53.440
a special emphasis on the gut.
Irritable Bowel Syndrome:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:53.440,0:31:00.720
Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) comprises&nbsp;
abdominal pain with inconsistent bowel movements.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:01.360,0:31:04.000
There are four types of this condition:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:04.960,0:31:12.320
IBS-D - characterized by persisting diarrhea&nbsp;
| IBS-C - characterized by persisting</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:12.320,0:31:18.240
constipation | BS-M/IBS-A - characterized&nbsp;
by persisting diarrhea and persisting</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:18.240,0:31:26.480
constipation | IBS-U - characterized by neither&nbsp;
persisting diarrhea nor persisting constipation</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:27.120,0:31:32.320
The condition is often accompanied&nbsp;
by anxiety, depression and chronic</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:32.320,0:31:38.560
fatigue syndrome all of which affect&nbsp;
the overall quality of life negatively.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:38.560,0:31:45.440
Irritable bowel syndrome affects 1 in 10&nbsp;
people of the entire world population.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:45.440,0:31:51.840
Again, opening the root chakra, the sacral&nbsp;
chakra and the solar plexus chakra is the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:51.840,0:31:58.160
most instrumental in treating IBS.
When it comes to healing IBS,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:58.160,0:32:03.680
Skeletal Leap tends to work at two different&nbsp;
levels of healing the body anatomy through</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:32:03.680,0:32:10.240
skeletal meditations. The first one works at&nbsp;
the level of gut and the second works at the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:32:10.240,0:32:17.440
level of skull. The two together address the&nbsp;
digestive system with the accompanying anxiety,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:32:17.440,0:32:23.920
depression and chronic fatigue syndrome.
Type 2 Diabetes:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:32:23.920,0:32:29.680
Type 2 diabetes is characterized by high blood&nbsp;
sugar caused by a reduction in insulin produced</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:32:29.680,0:32:41.200
by the pancreas. 90% of diabetic cases are of this&nbsp;
type. The remaining 10% (8.4 million estimated in</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:32:41.200,0:32:50.640
2021 worldwide) constitute type 1 diabetes which&nbsp;
is autoimmune along with gestational diabetes.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:32:51.360,0:32:59.040
The classic symptoms of type 2 diabetes are:
Frequent urination (polyuria) | Increased</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:32:59.040,0:33:07.200
thirst (polydipsia) | Increased&nbsp;
hunger (polyphagia) | Weight loss</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:33:07.200,0:33:08.720
Other symptoms include:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:33:08.720,0:33:18.320
Blurred vision | Itchiness | Peripheral neuropathy&nbsp;
| Vaginal infections | Fatigue | Loss of taste</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:33:18.960,0:33:24.720
The causative factors are a combination&nbsp;
of lifestyle and genetic factors.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:33:24.720,0:33:33.200
In 2021, 537 million people were afflicted&nbsp;
with diabetes the world over. It shortens</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:33:33.200,0:33:41.600
life-expectancy by as much as around 10 years.
Once again, opening the root chakra,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:33:41.600,0:33:47.680
the sacral chakra and the solar plexus chakra&nbsp;
is the most instrumental in treating diabetes.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:33:48.880,0:33:55.440
The healing process needs to focus on healing the&nbsp;
anatomy of the pancreas. Its widespread prevalence</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:33:55.440,0:34:03.040
the world over makes this disease very serious.&nbsp;
Skeletal meditations that heal the entire body’s</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:34:03.040,0:34:11.600
anatomy with special emphasis on the gut seem&nbsp;
to work the best to eradicate the condition.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:34:11.600,0:34:16.960
Cardiovascular Disease:
Cardiovascular disease is a</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:34:16.960,0:34:22.640
category of various diseases associated&nbsp;
with the circulatory system such as:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:34:22.640,0:34:29.360
Coronary artery diseases including angina&nbsp;
and myocardial infarction | Stroke | Heart</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:34:29.360,0:34:37.280
failure | Hypertensive heart disease | Rheumatic&nbsp;
heart disease | Cardiomyopathy | Abnormal</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:34:37.280,0:34:45.200
heart rhythms | Congenital heart disease |&nbsp;
Valvular heart disease | Carditis | Aortic</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:34:45.200,0:34:54.080
aneurysms | Peripheral artery disease |&nbsp;
Thromboembolic disease | Venous thrombosis</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:34:54.080,0:34:57.680
Genetics is an important&nbsp;
factor since it could increase</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:34:57.680,0:35:04.960
the risk of cardiovascular disease by 300%.
Cardiovascular diseases are the biggest cause</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:35:04.960,0:35:12.960
of death throughout the world, the only exception&nbsp;
being Africa. It was estimated that 17.9 million</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:35:12.960,0:35:21.840
people died from CVDs in 2019, representing&nbsp;
32% of all global deaths. Of these deaths,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:35:21.840,0:35:28.560
85% were due to heart attack and stroke.
The solar plexus chakra and the heart chakra</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:35:28.560,0:35:32.960
play the main role in dealing&nbsp;
with cardiovascular diseases.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:35:32.960,0:35:39.680
These are, again, very widespread diseases.&nbsp;
Skeletal Leap’s answer is to heal the entire</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:35:39.680,0:35:46.960
body’s anatomy through skeletal meditations&nbsp;
with a special emphasis on the chest region.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:35:46.960,0:35:50.080
Hypertension:
Hypertension,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:35:50.080,0:35:56.160
aka high blood pressure, is characterized by a&nbsp;
persistent rise in blood pressure. It primarily</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:35:56.160,0:36:03.200
harms a person by increasing the risk of:
Stroke | Coronary artery disease | Heart failure |</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:36:03.200,0:36:12.960
Atrial fibrillation | Peripheral&nbsp;arterial disease&nbsp;
| Vision loss | Chronic kidney disease | Dementia</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:36:12.960,0:36:19.680
Hypertension may be a primary condition, caused&nbsp;
by lifestyle aberrations or genetic factors,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:36:19.680,0:36:23.840
or secondary, as a side-effect of other causes.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:36:23.840,0:36:29.280
Blood pressure is measured as systolic&nbsp;
and diastolic pressures that correspond</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:36:29.280,0:36:36.080
to its maximum and minimum pressures.
The condition affects 1.28 billion</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:36:36.080,0:36:43.840
adults aged 30-79 years which is&nbsp;
about 16% of the global population.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:36:43.840,0:36:54.480
It was also a factor in 13.5% of all deaths&nbsp;
counting to 7.6 million in the year 2011.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:36:54.480,0:37:03.760
Opening the solar plexus, heart and crown chakras&nbsp;
tends to do the needful to keep hypertension away.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:37:03.760,0:37:10.000
Skeletal Leap achieves this through skeletal&nbsp;
meditations focused on healing the body’s anatomy</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:37:10.000,0:37:17.280
in two parts - the chest and the skull.
Metabolic Syndrome:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:37:17.280,0:37:22.000
Metabolic syndrome is a condition&nbsp;
characterized by the presence of any</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:37:22.000,0:37:29.520
three of the following conditions in the body:
Abdominal obesity | Hypertension | High blood</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:37:29.520,0:37:37.040
sugar | High serum triglycerides |&nbsp;
Low serum high density lipoprotein</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:37:37.040,0:37:44.880
Left untreated, this condition, affecting&nbsp;
around 20-25% of global population,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:37:44.880,0:37:50.960
may result in cardiovascular&nbsp;
disease or type 2 diabetes.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:37:50.960,0:37:53.520
Opening the root, sacral,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:37:53.520,0:37:59.920
solar plexus and heart chakras tend to&nbsp;
address metabolic syndrome effectively.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:38:00.640,0:38:06.640
Healing the body’s anatomy in the gut and&nbsp;
the chest seems to work best in relieving</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:38:06.640,0:38:14.400
the syndrome. That is exactly what Skeletal&nbsp;
Leap focuses on through skeletal meditations.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:38:14.400,0:38:18.960
Chronic Kidney Disease:
Chronic kidney disease is</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:38:18.960,0:38:24.880
characterized by a loss in kidney functions.&nbsp;
The causative factors of the disease are:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:38:24.880,0:38:33.520
Diabetes | Hypertension | Glomerulonephritis&nbsp;
| Polycystic kidney disease</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:38:33.520,0:38:39.040
In the year 2022, more than 800&nbsp;
million people are estimated to</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:38:39.040,0:38:45.280
be affected by chronic kidney disease&nbsp;
globally, causing 1.3 million deaths.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:38:45.840,0:38:51.200
Opening the root, sacral and solar&nbsp;
plexus chakras is the most instrumental</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:38:51.200,0:38:56.960
in treating chronic kidney disease.
Changing the body’s anatomy in the gut</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:38:56.960,0:39:02.560
through skeletal meditations seems to work&nbsp;
provided the disease has not progressed to</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:39:02.560,0:39:07.920
an advanced stage.
Osteoporosis:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:39:07.920,0:39:14.000
Osteoporosis is a condition characterized by&nbsp;
the deterioration of bone tissue resulting in</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:39:14.000,0:39:21.200
lower bone mass. It tends to make bones&nbsp;
more fragile and prone to fractures.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:39:21.200,0:39:26.720
Homo sapiens have a greater tendency to&nbsp;
suffer this disease as their bones are more</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:39:26.720,0:39:35.680
porous than other primates. This is, at once, an&nbsp;
expected outcome as well as cause of bipedalism.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:39:35.680,0:39:42.400
Porous bones in Homo sapiens absorb the stress&nbsp;
on two surfaces as compared to four in their</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:39:42.400,0:39:49.680
primate cousins. At the same time, porosity&nbsp;
means a lighter and more flexible skeleton</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:39:49.680,0:39:56.320
that is of much benefit to Homo sapiens.
The disease is more common in females</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:39:56.320,0:40:05.680
than in males. It affects 18.3% of the global&nbsp;
population, which breaks down to 11.7% of males</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:40:05.680,0:40:16.160
and 23.1% females. It can be prevented to a great&nbsp;
extent if we ensure necessary calcium in our diet.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:40:16.160,0:40:22.640
Osteoporosis responds to opening all 7&nbsp;
chakras in one associated sequential order.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:40:23.360,0:40:27.840
Skeletal Leap addresses the entire body’s&nbsp;
anatomy through skeletal meditations</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:40:27.840,0:40:34.560
to alleviate osteoporosis.
Polycystic Ovary Syndrome:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:40:34.560,0:40:40.080
Polycystic ovary syndrome is an endocrine&nbsp;
disorder in females of reproductive age,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:40:40.080,0:40:46.160
that causes cysts in their ovaries.
The effects and characteristics</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:40:46.160,0:40:50.880
of the disease include:
Irregular menstrual periods | Heavy</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:40:50.880,0:41:00.000
periods | Excess hair | Acne | Pelvic pain |&nbsp;
Difficulty in conceiving | Patches of thick, dark</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:41:00.000,0:41:09.680
and velvety skin | Hyperandrogenism | Anovulation&nbsp;
| Insulin resistance | Neuroendocrine disruption</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:41:10.400,0:41:17.360
The condition affects an estimated 8-13% of&nbsp;
the female population globally while another</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:41:17.360,0:41:23.840
70% of the affected women are estimated&nbsp;
to be undiagnosed. There are no known</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:41:23.840,0:41:30.480
causes of or cure for this disease.
Opening the sacral chakra is crucial</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:41:30.480,0:41:35.440
in curing PCOS.
PCOS responds the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:41:35.440,0:41:41.520
best to healing the gut’s anatomy and&nbsp;
physiology through skeletal meditations.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:41:41.520,0:41:44.800
Stroke:
Stroke is a</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:41:44.800,0:41:51.920
condition characterized by a lack of blood flow to&nbsp;
parts of the brain. It causes brain cells to die</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:41:51.920,0:42:00.560
in those affected parts. The condition is of two&nbsp;
types, ischemic stroke and hemorrhagic stroke. In</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:42:00.560,0:42:08.880
the former type, a reduced supply of blood is the&nbsp;
causative factor. In the latter, it is bleeding.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:42:08.880,0:42:14.800
The major risk factors causing a stroke are:
Hypertension | High blood</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:42:14.800,0:42:24.960
cholesterol | Obesity | Diabetes mellitus |&nbsp;
End-stage kidney disease | Atrial fibrillation</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:42:24.960,0:42:34.640
In the year 2019, ischemic stroke befell 101.5&nbsp;
million people globally of which 3.3 million</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:42:34.640,0:42:44.480
were left dead whereas 2.9 million died of a&nbsp;
hemorrhagic stroke among 20.7 million that were</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:42:44.480,0:42:53.760
affected by it. In 2015, stroke was the second&nbsp;
biggest killer next to coronary artery disease.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:42:54.800,0:43:00.320
Opening the solar plexus, heart and crown&nbsp;
chakras is the most important maneuver</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:43:00.320,0:43:06.960
to keep any probability of a stroke away.
Skeletal Leap focuses on healing the anatomy</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:43:06.960,0:43:13.280
of the chest and skull through skeletal&nbsp;
meditations to relieve this condition.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:43:13.280,0:43:18.480
Major Depressive Disorder:
Major depressive disorder</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:43:18.480,0:43:25.440
aka depression is a dysfunction of the mind that&nbsp;
also affects the thinking capacity of the brain.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:43:25.440,0:43:30.000
The condition is characterized by:
Low mood | Low self esteem at every</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:43:30.000,0:43:38.880
level | Loss of interest in routine as well as&nbsp;
in fun activities | Delusions | Hallucinations</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:43:38.880,0:43:45.360
The condition, once contracted, stays&nbsp;
for a few months to the entire lifetime.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:43:45.360,0:43:51.600
Psychiatry treats the victims with antidepressant&nbsp;
medication and psychotherapy. In case of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:43:51.600,0:43:59.360
emergencies like acute suicidal tendencies, the&nbsp;
patient needs to be hospitalized for safety.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:43:59.360,0:44:05.520
The causes are believed to be genetic,&nbsp;
environmental as well as psychological.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:44:05.520,0:44:12.080
But nothing has yet proved to be of much&nbsp;
help in curing the disease once and forever.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:44:12.080,0:44:19.440
In the year 2023, major depressive&nbsp;
disorder afflicted 280 million people</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:44:19.440,0:44:27.360
globally. That amounts to almost 4% of&nbsp;
the entire world population. In general,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:44:27.360,0:44:33.600
depression has already started assuming&nbsp;
widespread proportions the world over.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:44:33.600,0:44:42.560
Two Interesting Stories of Internalizing Anger
In my personal experience, depression internalizes</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:44:42.560,0:44:48.320
the patient’s aggressive emotions&nbsp;
against themselves. For example,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:44:48.320,0:44:55.600
it had wrapped its claws around one of my&nbsp;
friends some 40-odd years ago. He could never</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:44:55.600,0:45:02.640
come out of it in the true sense of the word.
Once, even in his acutely depressed mode,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:45:02.640,0:45:10.000
he got angry with me about something we had been&nbsp;
discussing. And he unleashed that anger. As he</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:45:10.000,0:45:17.840
did so, he instantaneously seemed to have come out&nbsp;
of his depression. He sounded exactly like he used</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:45:17.840,0:45:25.600
to sound before he had fallen victim to it. Once&nbsp;
his aggressive expression ended, he slid back into</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:45:25.600,0:45:33.600
his depression. He returned to internalizing his&nbsp;
anger - a characteristic symptom of depression.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:45:33.600,0:45:39.440
I don’t mean to say that aggression or anger&nbsp;
is a healthy stance of mind. I have already</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:45:39.440,0:45:46.160
told you under the topic of ‘Arthritis’ how my&nbsp;
suppressed anger had afflicted me with succumbing</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:45:46.160,0:45:53.680
to viral arthritis. What I mean to say is that&nbsp;
aggression can bring one out of one’s depression.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:45:53.680,0:46:02.000
It can bring one to a state of so-called ‘normal’.
I witnessed another case of internalized anger,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:46:02.000,0:46:08.080
this time in a terminal schizophrenic on&nbsp;
street. He was a recluse who kept roaming</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:46:08.080,0:46:15.600
aimlessly on streets, talking gibberish to no&nbsp;
one in particular. One day, I stood street-side</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:46:15.600,0:46:22.240
with a group of my trainees. It was then that&nbsp;
he passed us by. One of my very aggressive</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:46:22.240,0:46:30.960
trainees mocked him with a derogatory remark.&nbsp;
And what we witnessed next was eye-opening.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:46:30.960,0:46:37.200
The terminal schizophrenic stopped for a moment,&nbsp;
turned back and addressed this aggressive trainee</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:46:37.200,0:46:45.200
of mine loudly. He yelled, “One should at least&nbsp;
possess a sense of etiquette, if nothing else.”</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:46:45.200,0:46:49.920
Immediately thereafter, he went back&nbsp;
to being his gibberish old self.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:46:51.280,0:46:57.200
We were all taken aback by what we had just&nbsp;
seen and heard. A terminal schizophrenic</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:46:57.200,0:47:03.600
had momentarily come out of his illness&nbsp;
and then voluntarily slid back into it!</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:47:03.600,0:47:09.680
Do people take a secure refuge in their mental&nbsp;
disorders unconsciously? Maybe they take this</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:47:09.680,0:47:14.800
secure refuge through internalizing their&nbsp;
emotions against themselves to avoid facing</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:47:14.800,0:47:22.400
the harsh realities of life unconsciously.
It is something we really need to research!</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:47:22.400,0:47:27.200
As far as chakras are concerned,&nbsp;
the chakra that is key to fighting</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:47:27.200,0:47:33.440
depression is an open crown chakra.
Thankfully, today’s world understands</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:47:33.440,0:47:40.160
the seriousness of mental illnesses quite well.&nbsp;
That is why Skeletal Leap focuses on healing the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:47:40.160,0:47:46.640
entire body anatomy, which, in turn, tends to&nbsp;
heal the neurology and the psychology of the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:47:46.640,0:47:51.520
entire mind-body system.
Obesity:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:47:51.520,0:47:59.680
Obesity as a debilitating condition of excess fat&nbsp;
on the body disrupts health, fitness and wellness.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:48:00.480,0:48:06.480
Obesity is quantitatively defined&nbsp;
as body mass index (BMI) crossing</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:48:06.480,0:48:10.960
30 kilogram of body weight per&nbsp;
meter square of height. The range</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:48:10.960,0:48:16.080
between 25-30 kilogram per meter&nbsp;
square is defined as overweight.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:48:16.800,0:48:19.680
The condition is considered&nbsp;
to be a breeding ground for:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:48:19.680,0:48:26.560
Cardiovascular diseases | Type 2 diabetes&nbsp;
| Obstructive sleep apnea | Some specific</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:48:26.560,0:48:33.440
cancers | Osteoarthritis | Depression (in&nbsp;
a dialectical relationship with obesity)</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:48:34.080,0:48:37.360
Obesity has a long list of&nbsp;
causative factors including:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:48:37.360,0:48:43.120
Dietary imbalance | Physical&nbsp;
inactivity | Automotive devices | Urban</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:48:43.120,0:48:52.240
lifestyle | Genetics | Excess medicinal intake&nbsp;
| Mental dysfunctions | Endocrine disorders</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:48:52.240,0:48:58.160
Right now, more than 42% of all Americans&nbsp;
are obese. Also, the number of obese people</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:48:58.160,0:49:05.040
globally has more than doubled in the last 30&nbsp;
years resulting in 2.8 million annual deaths by</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:49:05.040,0:49:15.680</p>



<ol start="2021" class="wp-block-list">
<li>By the year 2015, the US and China topped&nbsp;
the list of obese populations. By the same year,</li>
</ol>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:49:15.680,0:49:21.920
China and India topped the list of countries&nbsp;
with the largest numbers of obese children.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:49:21.920,0:49:28.400
Obesity throughout the world has assumed a&nbsp;
debilitating stature making its scale even</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:49:28.400,0:49:34.560
larger than any other disease. That is why and&nbsp;
how the weight loss business has become one of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:49:34.560,0:49:41.280
the most lucrative businesses the world over!
Skeletal Leap addresses the challenge of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:49:41.280,0:49:47.200
obesity through skeletal meditations&nbsp;
healing the entire body’s anatomy.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:49:47.200,0:49:52.640
Here is an interesting corollary:
The best way to lose belly fat is</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:49:52.640,0:49:58.960
opening the solar plexus chakra. Doing&nbsp;
so relaxes the thoracic diaphragm which,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:49:58.960,0:50:06.160
in turn, makes exhalations more emphatic than&nbsp;
inhalations while breathing. And, as breathing</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:50:06.160,0:50:14.080
is a 24 hour process, it tends to lose belly fat&nbsp;
much faster than any other weight loss method.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:50:14.080,0:50:18.400
Vascular Dementia:
Vascular dementia is a type of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:50:18.400,0:50:24.400
dementia caused by aberrations in blood supply&nbsp;
to the brain. Such aberrations result in minor</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:50:24.400,0:50:31.040
strokes accompanied by degenerative cognition.&nbsp;
With the passage of time, the brain structure</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:50:31.040,0:50:38.480
experiences an irreversible cognitive regression.
Vascular dementia is the second biggest cause</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:50:38.480,0:50:44.720
of dementia-related deaths, the first being&nbsp;
Alzheimer’s disease. The condition afflicts</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:50:44.720,0:50:51.440
1.5% of the population in Western countries and&nbsp;
an even larger section in the rest of the world.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:50:52.560,0:50:58.720
Opening the crown chakra tends to heal&nbsp;
vascular dementia the most effective way.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:50:58.720,0:51:03.760
Skeletal Leap addresses dementia through&nbsp;
skeletal meditations healing the entire</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:51:03.760,0:51:11.440
body’s anatomy. As anatomy heals,&nbsp;
neurology and physiology follow suit.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:51:11.440,0:51:16.800
Immune System Dysfunction:
Our immune system is a defensive network of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:51:16.800,0:51:24.480
biological processes aimed at protection against&nbsp;
diseases. It first detects a pathogen, animate or</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:51:24.480,0:51:32.320
inanimate, and then responds to it appropriately.
It has two major subsystems:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:51:32.320,0:51:36.720
Innate immune system -&nbsp;
protects against any pathogen</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:51:37.680,0:51:44.880
Adaptive immune system - protects against those&nbsp;
pathogens for which antibodies have already been</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:51:44.880,0:51:50.960
formed (which is how vaccines work)
Immune system dysfunction may cause:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:51:50.960,0:51:56.800
Autoimmune diseases |&nbsp;
Inflammatory diseases | Cancer</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:51:56.800,0:51:58.640
Immunodeficiency may stem from:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:51:58.640,0:52:01.360
Genetic disease like severe combined</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:52:01.360,0:52:10.320
immunodeficiency | HIV/AIDS | Use&nbsp;
of immunosuppressive medication</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:52:10.320,0:52:15.440
Autoimmunity indicates a hyperactive&nbsp;
immune system attacking its own healthy</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:52:15.440,0:52:20.960
tissues mistaking them to be foreign&nbsp;
invaders. It may result in diseases like:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:52:20.960,0:52:27.920
Hashimoto’s thyroiditis | Rheumatoid&nbsp;
arthritis | Diabetes mellitus type 1&nbsp;|</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:52:27.920,0:52:35.920
Systemic lupus erythematosus | Inflammatory bowel&nbsp;
disease | Multiple sclerosis | Guillain-Barre</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:52:35.920,0:52:42.240
syndrome | Chronic inflammatory demyelinating&nbsp;
polyneuropathy | Psoriasis | Grave’s</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:52:42.240,0:52:54.080
disease | Myasthenia gravis | Vasculitis | Celiac&nbsp;
disease | Addison’s disease | Pernicious anemia</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:52:54.080,0:53:00.800
Innate immune system is the ultimate savior as&nbsp;
it works in a generic manner against pathogens</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:53:00.800,0:53:08.000
through pattern recognition receptors. Adaptive&nbsp;
immune system may work in a stronger manner</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:53:08.000,0:53:14.880
but only against limited pathogens. These few&nbsp;
pathogens are the ones that the innate immune</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:53:14.880,0:53:21.440
system has already built antibodies against.
Hence everything essentially falls back on the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:53:21.440,0:53:27.840
protective support system created by the&nbsp;
innate immune system in the first place.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:53:27.840,0:53:34.080
The Story of How My Innate Immune System&nbsp;
Protected Me against the Coronavirus</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:53:34.080,0:53:40.800
In the year 2021, I had a family of relatives&nbsp;
over. We would soon realize that all three of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:53:40.800,0:53:47.360
them had already contracted the Omicron variant&nbsp;
of the Covid-19 virus on their flight to my city.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:53:47.360,0:53:54.080
As was expected, they passed on the extremely&nbsp;
contagious virus to my entire family as well. Even</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:53:54.080,0:54:00.960
the vaccinated ones weren’t being spared from it.
First of all, my daughter and a vaccinated friend</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:54:00.960,0:54:07.840
of hers who had accompanied her to our house&nbsp;
went down. Then another friend of mine who</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:54:07.840,0:54:16.160
had visited me in their presence fell prey to&nbsp;
it. Next, it was my wife to contract Omicron.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:54:16.160,0:54:20.960
Logically, I should have been the next to&nbsp;
catch the virus as there was none else left</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:54:20.960,0:54:28.240
uninfected. Everyone including me kept waiting&nbsp;
for the virus to afflict me but it just didn’t</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:54:28.240,0:54:36.480
happen. All of us were astonished. I was not even&nbsp;
vaccinated. It occurred to me that my practice of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:54:36.480,0:54:43.280
central fixation might have been my savior.
Central fixation empties the mind and sets</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:54:43.280,0:54:48.640
it free not only turning the mind-body&nbsp;
system spontaneously intelligent but also</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:54:48.640,0:54:56.320
strengthening its innate immune system. It opens&nbsp;
chakras via skeletal re-posturing of the body.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:54:56.320,0:55:02.800
It is this skeletal re-posturing that works&nbsp;
wonders and is at the heart of Skeletal Leap.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:55:03.600,0:55:10.480
The Omicron variant later entered the&nbsp;
phase of widespread contagion. In contrast,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:55:10.480,0:55:17.360
I was spared despite close proximity to&nbsp;
its source right inside my own house.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:55:17.360,0:55:22.000
This experience does say something, perhaps a lot,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:55:22.000,0:55:28.800
about the extraordinary efficacy of central&nbsp;
fixation of the eyes, the body and the mind!</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:55:29.440,0:55:36.240
I always felt that we, the Homo sapiens all&nbsp;
over the world, overreacted to Covid-19 and</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:55:36.240,0:55:41.520
rushed in a host of vaccines without&nbsp;
even doing their human trials. That is</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:55:41.520,0:55:49.120
why even the vaccinated ones aren’t really&nbsp;
safe against the virus and its variants.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:55:49.120,0:55:54.960
Skeletal Leap addresses all immune system&nbsp;
dysfunctions through skeletal meditations, healing</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:55:54.960,0:56:03.040
the entire body’s anatomy. Once the anatomy&nbsp;
heals, the physiology follows in its footsteps.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:56:03.040,0:56:08.800
The other day, I received a text meme forwarded&nbsp;
to my mobile that made me laugh out loud (which</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:56:08.800,0:56:16.400
I generally don’t). It’s hilarious!&nbsp;
Must enjoy reading it in my PDF version.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:56:16.400,0:56:23.200
We are going to look at the role of stress in&nbsp;
generating lifestyle diseases in the next episode.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:56:23.920,0:56:29.360
We will also look at the role of&nbsp;
Skeletal Leap in dealing with stress.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:56:29.360,0:56:36.720
Thanks for listening to this episode of Skeletal&nbsp;
Leap: A Living Adventure! In the next episode,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:56:36.720,0:56:45.040

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Welcome back to another enlightening episode of Skeletal Leap: A Living Adventure!&nbsp;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">In today's episode titled “Health And Healing Lifestyle Diseases Explained: Heal NOW!” I dive deep into the intricate relationship between our evolving genetic makeup and the modern diseases plaguing humanity.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">I make it a point to explain how the evolution of human life has led to the emergence of various lifestyle diseases, fueled by both genetic predispositions and environmental changes.&nbsp;</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:05.120,0:00:22.080

any species from the tree of life.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:22.080,0:00:26.560
My name is Laadi Ojas. Welcome to “Skeletal Leap:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:26.560,0:00:34.400
A Living Adventure”. Skeletal Leap&nbsp;
transforms one’s life into a personal heaven.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:34.400,0:00:39.040
Today’s episode will tell you about&nbsp;
how lifestyle diseases and immune</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:39.040,0:00:43.520
system dysfunction take a toll on human health.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:43.520,0:00:50.080
Summoning energy and healing lifestyle diseases&nbsp;
are the two outcomes Skeletal Leap strives to</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:50.080,0:00:56.880
achieve while filling the leftover holes in the&nbsp;
bipedal evolution of Homo sapiens along the way.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:57.600,0:01:03.680
Let’s learn a bit more about the etiology&nbsp;
and prognosis of various lifestyle diseases.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:03.680,0:01:12.000
Knowing their ins and outs will equip us to&nbsp;
eradicate them through Skeletal Leap more easily.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:12.000,0:01:20.160
Evolution of Human Disease
As life evolved, so did disease.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:20.160,0:01:27.040
Life took shape via DNA replication as well as the&nbsp;
process of adaptation. It is against this ancient</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:27.040,0:01:34.000
code that its young genetic variants interact&nbsp;
with modern environments. This interaction ends</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:34.000,0:01:40.720
up generating human disease phenotypes.
Latest developments in genomic research</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:40.720,0:01:46.000
and technology have made it possible to&nbsp;
sequence genomes of any species from the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:46.000,0:01:54.240
tree of life. Disease came into existence as&nbsp;
soon as unicellular life came into existence.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:55.280,0:02:00.560
These unicellular organisms divided&nbsp;
themselves symmetrically and, therefore,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:00.560,0:02:09.360
never died. As asymmetric cell division evolved,&nbsp;
it resulted in multicellular organisms. These</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:09.360,0:02:16.400
new organisms experienced reduced cellular&nbsp;
damage. However they paid a huge price for</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:16.400,0:02:24.880
it in the form of aging and, eventually, death.
Multicellularity further evolved many more times</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:24.880,0:02:32.720
enabling complex body structures with intricate&nbsp;
communications between them. But each step in this</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:32.720,0:02:41.440
evolutionary saga was accompanied by newer disease&nbsp;
patterns. That was how cancer, for example, came</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:41.440,0:02:50.240
to existence. It was a direct result of increased&nbsp;
DNA repairs and mutations in the caretaker genes.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:51.520,0:02:58.960
Later, gatekeeper genes appeared to regulate cell&nbsp;
growth, communication and death, thus generating</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:58.960,0:03:07.200
immune systems for the organism. Further evolution&nbsp;
of immune systems generated new diseases just</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:07.200,0:03:14.480
like multicellularity had done. Like when the&nbsp;
human immune system co-evolved with parasites,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:14.480,0:03:19.360
the parasite infection generated&nbsp;
another immune response in humans.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:20.560,0:03:28.000
New anatomical structures like eyes, limbs,&nbsp;
pregnancy, et cetera evolved through adaptation</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:28.000,0:03:35.600
and integration of already existing genes&nbsp;
with regulatory circuits. The resulting genes</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:35.600,0:03:42.800
simultaneously affect many different traits&nbsp;
and shape substrates on which new diseases</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:42.800,0:03:49.280
appear as trade offs for evolution.
Diseases have their own evolutionary</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:49.280,0:03:56.400
histories. These histories get archived in&nbsp;
our genomes. Genomic advances have enabled</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:56.400,0:04:03.920
us to read those histories in great details.
Anatomically modern humans (AMHs) first came</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:03.920,0:04:12.400
to exist in Africa around 200,000 years ago.&nbsp;
Around 100,000 years ago, they started moving</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:12.400,0:04:23.040
out of Africa and quickly spread across Eurasia.&nbsp;
From there, groups of these early AMHs expanded</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:23.040,0:04:31.920
into Americas around 35,000 to 15,000 years ago.
Once they migrated, they came into contact with</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:31.920,0:04:39.600
other archaic hominin groups like Neanderthals and&nbsp;
Denisovans. They got admixed with them carrying</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:39.600,0:04:47.120
around 2% of their ancestry from Neanderthals&nbsp;
which they still do. However, even in the modern</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:47.120,0:04:54.880
African population, traces of admixture with&nbsp;
other unknown archaic hominins have been found.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:54.880,0:05:00.400
Exponential Evolutionary Growth&nbsp;
within The Past 10,000 Years</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:00.400,0:05:06.800
After their expansion throughout the globe, humans&nbsp;
went through an exponential growth within the past</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:06.800,0:05:15.920
10,000 years. Population explosion modified&nbsp;
their genetic architecture of traits. This,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:15.920,0:05:21.440
in turn, increased their chances of&nbsp;
genetic selection for different variants.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:22.160,0:05:27.440
That is how we find considerable differences&nbsp;
in allele frequency among different</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:27.440,0:05:34.800
populations with different disease risks.
Alleles denote the variants of a certain gene;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:34.800,0:05:42.560
like ABO blood group is controlled by ABO&nbsp;
gene with six variants. Allele frequency is</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:42.560,0:05:50.640
the relative frequency of an allele at a specific&nbsp;
locus in a population expressed as a percentage.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:50.640,0:05:57.680
Evolution has never been a perfect jump or&nbsp;
adaptation from one stage to another. Also,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:57.680,0:06:03.840
genetic changes have never been able to&nbsp;
ensure the best evolutionary progress.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:03.840,0:06:12.640
Genes have existed as varied yet co-existing&nbsp;
alleles at the same location on a chromosome.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:12.640,0:06:19.360
Exposures of different human groups to&nbsp;
different new environments forced them to adapt.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:19.360,0:06:26.960
But these rapid changes and adaptations also&nbsp;
generated complex patterns of new diseases.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:26.960,0:06:34.560
Hence diseases like obesity, diabetes, heart&nbsp;
disease and other hormonal dysfunctions came</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:34.560,0:06:40.800
to existence as lifestyle diseases&nbsp;
as a result of sedentary lifestyles.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:40.800,0:06:47.520
Ancestral alleles adapted for ancient environments&nbsp;
increased the risk of disease in modern</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:47.520,0:06:57.360
environments. That is how both ancient and newly&nbsp;
derived alleles increase the risk of disease.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:57.360,0:07:04.480
And that is why ancestral risk alleles are more&nbsp;
prevalent in African populations whereas newly</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:04.480,0:07:12.000
derived alleles risk Eurasian populations more.
What makes us vulnerable to a specific disease</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:12.000,0:07:17.520
today is a recent genetic variation&nbsp;
in our ancient gene systems.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:18.640,0:07:25.600
Every single person may have unique genomes&nbsp;
depending on their genetic histories. These</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:25.600,0:07:32.400
genetic histories change with their geographical&nbsp;
journeys through evolution and adaptations to</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:32.400,0:07:40.080
different environments. Latest genomic advances&nbsp;
have enabled us to unearth every single</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:40.080,0:07:47.360
individual’s historical tendencies to various&nbsp;
illnesses in greater detail. It enables us to</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:47.360,0:07:54.800
treat their illnesses in the most individualized&nbsp;
manner, thereby making it the most effective.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:54.800,0:08:02.560
Environmental Changes Vs Genetic Disposition
But the most recent environmental changes and</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:02.560,0:08:07.920
socio-psychological factors are much&nbsp;
bigger causes of disease than genetic</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:07.920,0:08:15.040
disposition. How do we deal with them?
Ancestral susceptibility model proposes</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:15.040,0:08:24.000
that the ancestral alleles were adapted as per the&nbsp;
ancient environments. However, these alleles were</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:24.000,0:08:32.640
not flexible enough to cope with environments that&nbsp;
changed rapidly over the past 10,000 years. They</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:32.640,0:08:40.880
can then generate risks of evolutionary mismatch&nbsp;
in those changed environments leading to disease.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:40.880,0:08:48.960
Here arises a very important question that needs&nbsp;
to be answered in a very clear way. Forming of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:48.960,0:08:57.360
alleles is understandable as natural selection&nbsp;
is always a trial and error process. But what</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:57.360,0:09:05.280
makes this process so rigid as to be inept&nbsp;
at coping with rapidly changing environments?</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:05.280,0:09:10.640
Here is a quote from an article&nbsp;
from New York University. It says…</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:10.640,0:09:18.480
A new analysis concludes that the ability of&nbsp;
early humans to adjust to changing conditions</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:18.480,0:09:27.360
ultimately enabled the earliest species of Homo&nbsp;
to vary, survive, and begin spreading from Africa</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:27.360,0:09:34.640
to Eurasia, marking a reconsideration of the&nbsp;
evolutionary factors that drove these changes.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:35.840,0:09:42.160
If it is so, why aren’t we able to live&nbsp;
a healthy life anywhere on Earth today?</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:42.160,0:09:48.080
Let’s look into various diseases separately&nbsp;
to try answering this more general question</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:48.080,0:09:54.800
regarding health and disease.
Alzheimer’s disease:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:54.800,0:10:01.520
Alzheimer’s disease is a neurodegenerative&nbsp;
disease, i.e., a disease of brain cells leading</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:01.520,0:10:10.320
to gradual memory loss. It first starts with&nbsp;
forgetting the most recent events. Later it moves</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:10.320,0:10:19.760
on to affect language, orientation, emotions,&nbsp;
motivation and behavior. In the advanced stages,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:19.760,0:10:27.520
even involuntary memory begins to wane. That&nbsp;
is when the patient starts moving toward death.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:27.520,0:10:35.840
It takes a few (3-9) years, from&nbsp;
its onset to eventual demise.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:35.840,0:10:42.160
Genetic factors and environment, both play their&nbsp;
role in the progression of this disease, like any</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:42.160,0:10:49.920
other. The strongest of the genetic factors is&nbsp;
an allele of apolipoprotein E (APOE) metabolizing</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:49.920,0:10:58.400
fats in the body. Clinical depression and&nbsp;
hypertension are also the possible risk factors.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:58.400,0:11:05.840
Only 1 - 2% of the cases are inherited. Most&nbsp;
cases are sporadic with late-onset Alzheimer’s</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:05.840,0:11:12.480
disease (LOAD) afflicting after the age of 65.
I come from a family that had three of its</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:12.480,0:11:17.200
members succumbing to Alzheimer’s disease.&nbsp;
But then, there were others in the family</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:17.200,0:11:23.600
who never contracted it. I hope I am one&nbsp;
among those who never do, especially when</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:23.600,0:11:30.720
I have my central fixation intact! An open&nbsp;
crown chakra tends to keep Alzheimer’s away.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:30.720,0:11:37.120
Why do I say so? It is an insight that I got&nbsp;
from opening my crown chakra, thus curing my</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:37.120,0:11:44.400
lifelong myopia. Though when it happened, I&nbsp;
never knew what my body had done to cure me.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:45.040,0:11:50.320
It is my contention that body intelligence is&nbsp;
way bigger than the intelligence of our conscious</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:50.320,0:11:58.960
mind. It does its healing silently. And body&nbsp;
intelligence works the best when its anatomy is</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:58.960,0:12:07.280
not compromised, paving the way to its physiology&nbsp;
working impeccably. And to a certain extent,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:07.280,0:12:13.520
this intelligence works most efficiently in&nbsp;
the vicinity of its actual physical location.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:14.400,0:12:20.400
Hence, almost all the irregularities taking&nbsp;
place in the skull region are most affected</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:20.400,0:12:27.200
by the skull anatomy getting compromised.
This forms the foundation on which Skeletal</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:27.200,0:12:34.000
Leap’s case for healing lifestyle diseases&nbsp;
is built. This would then coincide with the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:34.000,0:12:40.160
healthiest phase of bipedal evolution,&nbsp;
devoid of all those leftover holes.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:40.800,0:12:47.600
This was what had cured my myopia in the first&nbsp;
place when my skull entered its healthiest phase</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:47.600,0:12:54.640
as part of my own personal bipedal evolution.
A healthy anatomy lies at the root of a healthy</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:54.640,0:13:01.600
physiology. And when the skeletal meditations&nbsp;
facilitated by Skeletal Leap open the related</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:01.600,0:13:07.040
chakra, it is the anatomy of that local&nbsp;
area which turns healthier. It turns</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:07.040,0:13:12.880
their related physiology healthier too.
The best part is that the body does all</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:12.880,0:13:16.960
this healing on its own regardless of&nbsp;
whether we are able to rationalize it</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:16.960,0:13:23.920
through logical analysis or not. This silent&nbsp;
healing process of the body is very potent.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:23.920,0:13:30.880
And this is the healing philosophy that Skeletal&nbsp;
Leap bases all its skeletal meditations on.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:30.880,0:13:36.240
They tend to heal the anatomy of the&nbsp;
body which, in turn, tends to heal the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:36.240,0:13:43.840
associated diseases based on its own superior&nbsp;
intelligence. This superior intelligence works</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:43.840,0:13:51.680
way better and way faster than any analytical&nbsp;
procedures invented by medical science to date.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:51.680,0:13:54.960
Arthritis:
Arthritis means</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:54.960,0:14:02.000
disorders affecting joints, turning them stiff&nbsp;
and painful while limiting their movement.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:02.000,0:14:10.000
Osteoarthritis is a degenerative joint disease&nbsp;
that affects fingers, knees and hips. Rheumatoid</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:10.000,0:14:18.800
arthritis is an autoimmune disease that affects&nbsp;
hands and feet. Other joint conditions like gout,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:18.800,0:14:26.640
lupus, fibromyalgia and septic arthritis are&nbsp;
all different types of rheumatic diseases.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:27.440,0:14:33.840
Arthritis, in general, can be any among the&nbsp;
following types&nbsp;characterized by joints alone:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:33.840,0:14:42.080
Osteoarthritis | Rheumatoid Arthritis | Gout&nbsp;
and Pseudo-gout | Septic Arthritis | Ankylosing</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:42.080,0:14:52.160
Spondylitis | Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis&nbsp;
| Still’s Disease | Psoriatic Arthritis</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:52.160,0:14:57.760
Joint pains can also exist as a secondary&nbsp;
symptom of some other main disease, like:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:57.760,0:15:07.520
Psoriasis | Reactive Arthritis | Ehlers-Danlos&nbsp;
Syndrome | Iron Overload | Hepatitis | Lyme</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:07.520,0:15:16.000
Disease | Sjogren’s Disease | Hashimoto’s&nbsp;
Thyroiditis | Celiac Disease | Non-celiac</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:16.000,0:15:21.680
Gluten Sensitivity | Inflammatory&nbsp;
Bowel Disease | Henoch-Schonlein</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:21.680,0:15:31.200
Purpura | Hyperimmunoglobulinemia D with&nbsp;
Recurrent Fever | Sarcoidosis | Whipple’s Disease</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:31.200,0:15:39.600
The Story of My Encounter with Arthritis
In 2019, while I was in a traumatized state</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:39.600,0:15:46.640
due to long-suppressed anger, I fell prey to&nbsp;
viral arthritis. The virus was there in the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:46.640,0:15:54.800
air in my city that year. It caught my wrists,&nbsp;
hands and fingers with an acute pain in their</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:54.800,0:16:02.960
joints. All my neighbors caught the virus too.
As I generally do in response to any infection,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:02.960,0:16:10.640
I didn’t consult any physician but decided to&nbsp;
wait and watch. Five months passed without any</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:10.640,0:16:16.800
improvement in the situation. Ultimately&nbsp;
I consulted a specialist who gave me a</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:16.800,0:16:23.840
strong course of medication for one week.&nbsp;
He assured me I would be okay within a week.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:23.840,0:16:32.000
A week later, I was not only back at his clinic&nbsp;
but my condition was worse too. I saw clear signs</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:32.000,0:16:39.040
of panic on my physician’s face. He had already&nbsp;
done the best he could have. He took a stance</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:39.040,0:16:46.720
that mine was not a case of viral arthritis as&nbsp;
such. He said it was most probably the onset of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:46.720,0:16:54.480
rheumatoid arthritis. Hence he referred me to the&nbsp;
most popular rheumatoid specialist in the city.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:55.120,0:17:00.720
This scared me because rheumatoid&nbsp;
arthritis, unlike viral arthritis,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:00.720,0:17:07.280
was an autoimmune disease. And I was aware that&nbsp;
medical science hadn’t yet been able to invent</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:07.280,0:17:16.080
a total cure for any autoimmune irregularity.
The new doctor tested my blood to assess if it</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:16.080,0:17:23.840
was, indeed, the onset of rheumatoid arthritis.&nbsp;
When he came to the conclusion that it was most</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:23.840,0:17:33.040
probably so, he started me on a course of what I&nbsp;
call “medicinal management”. It meant that I was</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:33.040,0:17:41.600
doomed to live with this condition for the rest&nbsp;
of my life, managing the disease perennially.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:41.600,0:17:47.040
I told him I wasn’t interested in disease&nbsp;
management alone. What I was interested</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:47.040,0:17:54.160
in was a complete cure. I asked him&nbsp;
if it was possible or not. If it was,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:54.160,0:17:59.520
I would prefer living a free life without&nbsp;
any precautionary conditions attached to</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:59.520,0:18:05.760
it. If it wasn’t, I would rather say&nbsp;
bye to the world. He could not say yes</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:05.760,0:18:12.000
but tried his best to change my mind and&nbsp;
gave me a month-long course of medication.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:12.640,0:18:19.600
I told him I had done my own personal research on&nbsp;
central fixation and its connection to lifestyle</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:19.600,0:18:26.320
diseases. I added that, while giving his&nbsp;
medication a shot, I would start my central</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:26.320,0:18:32.160
fixation procedure simultaneously. If, at the&nbsp;
end of the month, I was able to live without</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:32.160,0:18:40.080
his next monthly dose, I’d continue living.
In the end, to make things lighter, I said,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:40.080,0:18:47.120
“If I do, I will invite rheumatoid patients the&nbsp;
world over to come to me for a permanent cure!”</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:47.120,0:18:52.800
He was ready, smiling with his&nbsp;
funnily crisp reply, “Hey! I need</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:52.800,0:18:59.440
to put food on the table for my family too!”
I immediately started focusing on central</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:59.440,0:19:05.200
fixation of my body; something&nbsp;
I had ignored due to my trauma.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:05.200,0:19:11.280
The chakras that helped me the most in healing&nbsp;
my condition through dissolving (or opening)</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:11.280,0:19:19.600
themselves were solar plexus chakra, throat&nbsp;
chakra and crown chakra. I can understand if,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:19.600,0:19:25.200
now, you are wondering to yourself, “If&nbsp;
existence of chakras is the problem,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:25.200,0:19:32.640
how can they ‘help’?” Let me explain. Solar&nbsp;
plexus chakra opened up to keep my thoracic</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:32.640,0:19:39.200
diaphragm relaxed making my exhalations longer&nbsp;
than my inhalations while breathing. Opening</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:39.200,0:19:46.080
the throat chakra brought my arms and hands back&nbsp;
to their natural posture for good. And an open</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:46.080,0:19:56.080
crown chakra took care of my autoimmune tendency.
I lived! Not only lived, I thrived. And I have</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:56.080,0:20:02.880
never needed arthritis medication since.
Atherosclerosis:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:02.880,0:20:09.040
Atherosclerosis narrows the walls of the&nbsp;
arteries due to atheromatous plaque buildup</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:09.040,0:20:16.960
causing lesions in the artery walls. The narrowing&nbsp;
of arteries reduces the flow of oxygenated blood</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:16.960,0:20:24.320
to the associated body parts. With the passage&nbsp;
of time, it may lead to coronary artery disease,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:24.320,0:20:30.880
stroke, peripheral artery disease&nbsp;
or complications in the kidney.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:30.880,0:20:35.760
The process of atheromatous plaque&nbsp;
buildup is not well understood. It</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:35.760,0:20:42.160
retains low density lipoprotein in the walls&nbsp;
of these arteries. Whether this retention</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:42.160,0:20:48.240
is the cause or an effect of the entire&nbsp;
inflammatory process remains a mystery.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:48.880,0:20:54.960
The plaque deposited in the muscle cells of the&nbsp;
artery walls makes them stretch to accommodate</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:54.960,0:21:03.120
its bulk. This makes the artery wall stiff and&nbsp;
unable to stretch further with every heartbeat.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:03.120,0:21:09.840
The condition ends up in hypertension and heart&nbsp;
condition in the due course of time. As of now,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:09.840,0:21:16.560
its medical prognoses are largely guesswork.
I propose that opening the solar plexus</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:16.560,0:21:23.440
and heart chakras tends to both,&nbsp;
prevent and cure atherosclerosis.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:23.440,0:21:30.240
As I have pointed earlier, Skeletal Leap with&nbsp;
the help of its skeletal meditations can heal</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:30.240,0:21:38.000
the body anatomy in the region of the lungs and&nbsp;
heart, especially in the main arteries nearby.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:38.000,0:21:43.280
This healed anatomy automatically heals the&nbsp;
compromised physiology of the associated</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:43.280,0:21:51.360
organs through innate body intelligence.
This is what Hippocrates, Father of Medicine,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:51.360,0:21:59.440
meant when he said, “Disease [is] not an entity,&nbsp;
but a fluctuating condition of the patient’s body,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:59.440,0:22:06.480
a battle between the substance of disease and&nbsp;
the natural self-healing tendency of the body.”</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:06.480,0:22:11.840
Asthma:
Asthma inflames the air passages to and from the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:11.840,0:22:19.280
lungs resulting in obstruction of the breathing&nbsp;
process. It causes wheezing, coughing, a tightened</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:19.280,0:22:27.600
chest and a very short breathing pattern. Episodes&nbsp;
of asthmatic fits can occur at a frequency ranging</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:27.600,0:22:34.080
from a few times a day to a few times a week.
Asthma is considered to be a psychosomatic</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:34.080,0:22:40.880
disease, caused by a combination of genetic&nbsp;
and environmental factors. The disease doesn’t</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:40.880,0:22:47.200
have any permanent cure but is manageable&nbsp;
with the use of inhalers comprising beta-2</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:47.200,0:22:55.360
agonists like salbutamol and corticosteroids.
It is a widespread disease throughout the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:55.360,0:23:05.360
world affecting 262 million people that&nbsp;
killed 461,000 of them in 2019 alone.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:05.360,0:23:10.480
It is my contention that the chakra attached&nbsp;
to this psychosomatic disease is the solar</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:10.480,0:23:16.240
plexus chakra which tends to&nbsp;
set asthma right when opened.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:17.040,0:23:24.080
Asthma is a psychosomatic disease in which the&nbsp;
trachea gets compromised, both in its anatomy</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:24.080,0:23:32.160
and physiology. Skeletal Leap uses skeletal&nbsp;
meditations to heal its anatomy which, in turn,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:32.160,0:23:37.600
can then heal itself.
Cancer:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:37.600,0:23:44.720
Cancer signifies uncontrolled cell growth that&nbsp;
may spread to the neighboring parts of the body.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:44.720,0:23:51.600
More than 90% cases are caused by mutations&nbsp;
owing to environmental and lifestyle factors.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:51.600,0:23:59.760
The rest of them are caused by inherited genetics.
How does a normal cell turn into a cancerous cell?</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:59.760,0:24:07.600
In order to change its regulation, its genes&nbsp;
must get altered in one way or another. These</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:07.600,0:24:15.040
altered genes comprise oncogenes and tumor&nbsp;
suppressor genes. Oncogenes promote cell</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:15.040,0:24:22.080
growth and reproduction. Tumor suppressor&nbsp;
genes inhibit cell division and survival.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:22.080,0:24:27.200
Mutations cause a gain or loss&nbsp;
of a portion of a chromosome.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:27.200,0:24:34.240
So, the process develops as follows:
A mutation takes place in the error</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:34.240,0:24:40.080
correcting system in a cell.
A further mutation takes place</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:40.080,0:24:46.240
in an oncogene causing the cell to&nbsp;
grow and reproduce more speedily.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:47.200,0:24:52.000
A further mutation takes place in a&nbsp;
tumor suppressor gene causing the cell</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:52.000,0:24:59.360
to disrupt its tumor suppressing system.
A further mutation takes place in the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:59.360,0:25:05.840
signaling system of the cell causing it to send&nbsp;
erroneous signals to its neighboring cells.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:06.960,0:25:13.040
As a result, the cell in question&nbsp;
turns into a cancerous cell.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:13.040,0:25:19.680
In 2019, 18 million cancer cases were&nbsp;
reported. Annually, 8.8 million deaths</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:19.680,0:25:26.400
are caused by cancer. It remains one of the&nbsp;
biggest challenges facing medical science today.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:26.400,0:25:30.240
My study suggests that opening&nbsp;
the crown chakra is the most</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:30.240,0:25:36.720
instrumental in tending to keep cancer away.
Cancer is a disease of the immune system going</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:36.720,0:25:43.520
hay wire. Skeletal Leap contends that it can&nbsp;
heal the overall anatomy of a body afflicted</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:43.520,0:25:50.560
with cancer including its most important part&nbsp;
in the skull that houses the brain in it.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:50.560,0:25:57.120
Chronic Liver Disease or Liver Cirrhosis:
Chronic liver disease is the process of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:57.120,0:26:02.560
disruption of the entire liver structure&nbsp;
and function resulting in liver fibrosis</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:02.560,0:26:09.440
and liver cirrhosis. Liver fibrosis means&nbsp;
accumulation of extracellular matrix proteins</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:09.440,0:26:16.480
including collagen. That is what happens in&nbsp;
most kinds of chronic liver disease.&nbsp;Advanced</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:16.480,0:26:23.440
liver fibrosis ends up in liver cirrhosis&nbsp;
ultimately requiring liver transplantation.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:23.440,0:26:32.640
Signs of liver disease are associated with two&nbsp;
different parameters - decompensation and cause.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:32.640,0:26:38.480
Signs and Symptoms: Nail clubbing&nbsp;
| Palmar erythema | Spider</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:38.480,0:26:47.200
nevi&nbsp;(angiomata) | Gynaecomastia | Feminizing&nbsp;
hair distribution | Testicular atrophy | Small</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:47.200,0:26:54.240
irregular shrunken liver | Anaemia | Caput medusae</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:54.240,0:26:57.120
Signs associated with the Decompensation:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:57.120,0:27:06.480
Drowsiness | Hyperventilation | Metabolic flap&nbsp;
| Jaundice | Ascites| Leukonychia | Peripheral</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:06.480,0:27:14.720
oedema | Bruising | Acid-base imbalance,&nbsp;
most commonly&nbsp;respiratory alkalosis</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:14.720,0:27:21.680
Signs associated with the Cause: Dupuytren’s&nbsp;
contracture | Parotid | Peripheral</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:21.680,0:27:28.000
neuropathy | Cerebellar signs |&nbsp;
Liver enlargement&nbsp;| Kayser-Fleischer</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:28.000,0:27:34.800
rings | Increased pigmentation of the&nbsp;
skin | Signs of right heart failure</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:34.800,0:27:41.760
Cirrhosis is the final stage of chronic&nbsp;
liver disease. Between 1990 and 2017,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:41.760,0:27:49.840
the number of cases of decompensated cirrhosis&nbsp;
around the world rose from 5.2 million to 10.6</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:49.840,0:27:58.320
million. By 2019, cirrhosis caused 1.47&nbsp;
million deaths worldwide. The major causes</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:58.320,0:28:06.800
were alcoholism, hepatitis B and hepatitis C.
Opening the root chakra, the sacral chakra and</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:06.800,0:28:14.960
the solar plexus chakra, in my analysis, plays the&nbsp;
most important role in keeping the liver intact.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:14.960,0:28:20.320
Liver is a part of the gut and,&nbsp;
hence, Skeletal Leap addresses it</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:20.320,0:28:26.400
through skeletal meditation aimed at healing&nbsp;
the anatomy of the gut. The healed anatomy</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:26.400,0:28:32.560
tends to heal its physiology depending on&nbsp;
which stage it has already proceeded to.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:33.360,0:28:37.280
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:37.280,0:28:43.200
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)&nbsp;
is a progressive lung disease caused by chronic</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:43.200,0:28:51.520
respiratory issues. The condition is characterized&nbsp;
either by emphysema or chronic bronchitis.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:51.520,0:28:58.960
Emphysema breaks down the walls of enlarged&nbsp;
airspaces resulting in irreversible lung damage.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:59.680,0:29:08.880
In 2019, the condition took a toll of 3.23 million&nbsp;
lives. An astonishing 391.9 million cases were</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:08.880,0:29:19.280
estimated in 2019, making it almost 10% of the&nbsp;
global population aged between 30 and 79 years.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:19.280,0:29:25.680
An open solar plexus chakra tends to keep&nbsp;
chronic obstructive pulmonary disease at bay.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:26.480,0:29:33.520
Healing depends on which stage the disease has&nbsp;
already progressed to. In case irreversible lung</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:33.520,0:29:40.640
damage has not yet happened, Skeletal Leap can&nbsp;
successfully facilitate skeletal meditations to</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:40.640,0:29:48.720
heal the anatomy of the chest region. Once the&nbsp;
anatomy has healed, the physiology follows suit.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:48.720,0:29:53.120
Colitis:
Colitis is a chronic condition of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:53.120,0:30:00.800
an inflamed colon, with or without ulcers.
There are quite a few different types of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:00.800,0:30:06.720
colitis ranging from autoimmune&nbsp;
to infectious colitis, namely:</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:26.400,0:30:33.360
I have learnt that opening the root chakra,&nbsp;
the sacral chakra and the solar plexus chakra</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:33.360,0:30:40.080
is most instrumental in treating colitis.
The healing depends on which type of colitis</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:40.080,0:30:47.120
it is. Hence the safest bet is to heal the entire&nbsp;
body’s anatomy through skeletal meditations with</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:47.120,0:30:53.440
a special emphasis on the gut.
Irritable Bowel Syndrome:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:53.440,0:31:00.720
Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) comprises&nbsp;
abdominal pain with inconsistent bowel movements.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:01.360,0:31:04.000
There are four types of this condition:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:04.960,0:31:12.320
IBS-D - characterized by persisting diarrhea&nbsp;
| IBS-C - characterized by persisting</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:12.320,0:31:18.240
constipation | BS-M/IBS-A - characterized&nbsp;
by persisting diarrhea and persisting</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:18.240,0:31:26.480
constipation | IBS-U - characterized by neither&nbsp;
persisting diarrhea nor persisting constipation</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:27.120,0:31:32.320
The condition is often accompanied&nbsp;
by anxiety, depression and chronic</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:32.320,0:31:38.560
fatigue syndrome all of which affect&nbsp;
the overall quality of life negatively.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:38.560,0:31:45.440
Irritable bowel syndrome affects 1 in 10&nbsp;
people of the entire world population.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:45.440,0:31:51.840
Again, opening the root chakra, the sacral&nbsp;
chakra and the solar plexus chakra is the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:51.840,0:31:58.160
most instrumental in treating IBS.
When it comes to healing IBS,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:58.160,0:32:03.680
Skeletal Leap tends to work at two different&nbsp;
levels of healing the body anatomy through</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:32:03.680,0:32:10.240
skeletal meditations. The first one works at&nbsp;
the level of gut and the second works at the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:32:10.240,0:32:17.440
level of skull. The two together address the&nbsp;
digestive system with the accompanying anxiety,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:32:17.440,0:32:23.920
depression and chronic fatigue syndrome.
Type 2 Diabetes:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:32:23.920,0:32:29.680
Type 2 diabetes is characterized by high blood&nbsp;
sugar caused by a reduction in insulin produced</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:32:29.680,0:32:41.200
by the pancreas. 90% of diabetic cases are of this&nbsp;
type. The remaining 10% (8.4 million estimated in</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:32:41.200,0:32:50.640
2021 worldwide) constitute type 1 diabetes which&nbsp;
is autoimmune along with gestational diabetes.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:32:51.360,0:32:59.040
The classic symptoms of type 2 diabetes are:
Frequent urination (polyuria) | Increased</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:32:59.040,0:33:07.200
thirst (polydipsia) | Increased&nbsp;
hunger (polyphagia) | Weight loss</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:33:07.200,0:33:08.720
Other symptoms include:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:33:08.720,0:33:18.320
Blurred vision | Itchiness | Peripheral neuropathy&nbsp;
| Vaginal infections | Fatigue | Loss of taste</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:33:18.960,0:33:24.720
The causative factors are a combination&nbsp;
of lifestyle and genetic factors.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:33:24.720,0:33:33.200
In 2021, 537 million people were afflicted&nbsp;
with diabetes the world over. It shortens</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:33:33.200,0:33:41.600
life-expectancy by as much as around 10 years.
Once again, opening the root chakra,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:33:41.600,0:33:47.680
the sacral chakra and the solar plexus chakra&nbsp;
is the most instrumental in treating diabetes.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:33:48.880,0:33:55.440
The healing process needs to focus on healing the&nbsp;
anatomy of the pancreas. Its widespread prevalence</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:33:55.440,0:34:03.040
the world over makes this disease very serious.&nbsp;
Skeletal meditations that heal the entire body’s</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:34:03.040,0:34:11.600
anatomy with special emphasis on the gut seem&nbsp;
to work the best to eradicate the condition.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:34:11.600,0:34:16.960
Cardiovascular Disease:
Cardiovascular disease is a</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:34:16.960,0:34:22.640
category of various diseases associated&nbsp;
with the circulatory system such as:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:34:22.640,0:34:29.360
Coronary artery diseases including angina&nbsp;
and myocardial infarction | Stroke | Heart</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:34:29.360,0:34:37.280
failure | Hypertensive heart disease | Rheumatic&nbsp;
heart disease | Cardiomyopathy | Abnormal</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:34:37.280,0:34:45.200
heart rhythms | Congenital heart disease |&nbsp;
Valvular heart disease | Carditis | Aortic</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:34:45.200,0:34:54.080
aneurysms | Peripheral artery disease |&nbsp;
Thromboembolic disease | Venous thrombosis</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:34:54.080,0:34:57.680
Genetics is an important&nbsp;
factor since it could increase</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:34:57.680,0:35:04.960
the risk of cardiovascular disease by 300%.
Cardiovascular diseases are the biggest cause</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:35:04.960,0:35:12.960
of death throughout the world, the only exception&nbsp;
being Africa. It was estimated that 17.9 million</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:35:12.960,0:35:21.840
people died from CVDs in 2019, representing&nbsp;
32% of all global deaths. Of these deaths,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:35:21.840,0:35:28.560
85% were due to heart attack and stroke.
The solar plexus chakra and the heart chakra</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:35:28.560,0:35:32.960
play the main role in dealing&nbsp;
with cardiovascular diseases.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:35:32.960,0:35:39.680
These are, again, very widespread diseases.&nbsp;
Skeletal Leap’s answer is to heal the entire</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:35:39.680,0:35:46.960
body’s anatomy through skeletal meditations&nbsp;
with a special emphasis on the chest region.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:35:46.960,0:35:50.080
Hypertension:
Hypertension,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:35:50.080,0:35:56.160
aka high blood pressure, is characterized by a&nbsp;
persistent rise in blood pressure. It primarily</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:35:56.160,0:36:03.200
harms a person by increasing the risk of:
Stroke | Coronary artery disease | Heart failure |</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:36:03.200,0:36:12.960
Atrial fibrillation | Peripheral&nbsp;arterial disease&nbsp;
| Vision loss | Chronic kidney disease | Dementia</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:36:12.960,0:36:19.680
Hypertension may be a primary condition, caused&nbsp;
by lifestyle aberrations or genetic factors,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:36:19.680,0:36:23.840
or secondary, as a side-effect of other causes.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:36:23.840,0:36:29.280
Blood pressure is measured as systolic&nbsp;
and diastolic pressures that correspond</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:36:29.280,0:36:36.080
to its maximum and minimum pressures.
The condition affects 1.28 billion</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:36:36.080,0:36:43.840
adults aged 30-79 years which is&nbsp;
about 16% of the global population.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:36:43.840,0:36:54.480
It was also a factor in 13.5% of all deaths&nbsp;
counting to 7.6 million in the year 2011.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:36:54.480,0:37:03.760
Opening the solar plexus, heart and crown chakras&nbsp;
tends to do the needful to keep hypertension away.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:37:03.760,0:37:10.000
Skeletal Leap achieves this through skeletal&nbsp;
meditations focused on healing the body’s anatomy</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:37:10.000,0:37:17.280
in two parts - the chest and the skull.
Metabolic Syndrome:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:37:17.280,0:37:22.000
Metabolic syndrome is a condition&nbsp;
characterized by the presence of any</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:37:22.000,0:37:29.520
three of the following conditions in the body:
Abdominal obesity | Hypertension | High blood</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:37:29.520,0:37:37.040
sugar | High serum triglycerides |&nbsp;
Low serum high density lipoprotein</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:37:37.040,0:37:44.880
Left untreated, this condition, affecting&nbsp;
around 20-25% of global population,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:37:44.880,0:37:50.960
may result in cardiovascular&nbsp;
disease or type 2 diabetes.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:37:50.960,0:37:53.520
Opening the root, sacral,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:37:53.520,0:37:59.920
solar plexus and heart chakras tend to&nbsp;
address metabolic syndrome effectively.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:38:00.640,0:38:06.640
Healing the body’s anatomy in the gut and&nbsp;
the chest seems to work best in relieving</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:38:06.640,0:38:14.400
the syndrome. That is exactly what Skeletal&nbsp;
Leap focuses on through skeletal meditations.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:38:14.400,0:38:18.960
Chronic Kidney Disease:
Chronic kidney disease is</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:38:18.960,0:38:24.880
characterized by a loss in kidney functions.&nbsp;
The causative factors of the disease are:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:38:24.880,0:38:33.520
Diabetes | Hypertension | Glomerulonephritis&nbsp;
| Polycystic kidney disease</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:38:33.520,0:38:39.040
In the year 2022, more than 800&nbsp;
million people are estimated to</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:38:39.040,0:38:45.280
be affected by chronic kidney disease&nbsp;
globally, causing 1.3 million deaths.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:38:45.840,0:38:51.200
Opening the root, sacral and solar&nbsp;
plexus chakras is the most instrumental</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:38:51.200,0:38:56.960
in treating chronic kidney disease.
Changing the body’s anatomy in the gut</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:38:56.960,0:39:02.560
through skeletal meditations seems to work&nbsp;
provided the disease has not progressed to</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:39:02.560,0:39:07.920
an advanced stage.
Osteoporosis:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:39:07.920,0:39:14.000
Osteoporosis is a condition characterized by&nbsp;
the deterioration of bone tissue resulting in</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:39:14.000,0:39:21.200
lower bone mass. It tends to make bones&nbsp;
more fragile and prone to fractures.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:39:21.200,0:39:26.720
Homo sapiens have a greater tendency to&nbsp;
suffer this disease as their bones are more</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:39:26.720,0:39:35.680
porous than other primates. This is, at once, an&nbsp;
expected outcome as well as cause of bipedalism.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:39:35.680,0:39:42.400
Porous bones in Homo sapiens absorb the stress&nbsp;
on two surfaces as compared to four in their</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:39:42.400,0:39:49.680
primate cousins. At the same time, porosity&nbsp;
means a lighter and more flexible skeleton</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:39:49.680,0:39:56.320
that is of much benefit to Homo sapiens.
The disease is more common in females</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:39:56.320,0:40:05.680
than in males. It affects 18.3% of the global&nbsp;
population, which breaks down to 11.7% of males</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:40:05.680,0:40:16.160
and 23.1% females. It can be prevented to a great&nbsp;
extent if we ensure necessary calcium in our diet.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:40:16.160,0:40:22.640
Osteoporosis responds to opening all 7&nbsp;
chakras in one associated sequential order.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:40:23.360,0:40:27.840
Skeletal Leap addresses the entire body’s&nbsp;
anatomy through skeletal meditations</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:40:27.840,0:40:34.560
to alleviate osteoporosis.
Polycystic Ovary Syndrome:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:40:34.560,0:40:40.080
Polycystic ovary syndrome is an endocrine&nbsp;
disorder in females of reproductive age,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:40:40.080,0:40:46.160
that causes cysts in their ovaries.
The effects and characteristics</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:40:46.160,0:40:50.880
of the disease include:
Irregular menstrual periods | Heavy</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:40:50.880,0:41:00.000
periods | Excess hair | Acne | Pelvic pain |&nbsp;
Difficulty in conceiving | Patches of thick, dark</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:41:00.000,0:41:09.680
and velvety skin | Hyperandrogenism | Anovulation&nbsp;
| Insulin resistance | Neuroendocrine disruption</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:41:10.400,0:41:17.360
The condition affects an estimated 8-13% of&nbsp;
the female population globally while another</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:41:17.360,0:41:23.840
70% of the affected women are estimated&nbsp;
to be undiagnosed. There are no known</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:41:23.840,0:41:30.480
causes of or cure for this disease.
Opening the sacral chakra is crucial</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:41:30.480,0:41:35.440
in curing PCOS.
PCOS responds the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:41:35.440,0:41:41.520
best to healing the gut’s anatomy and&nbsp;
physiology through skeletal meditations.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:41:41.520,0:41:44.800
Stroke:
Stroke is a</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:41:44.800,0:41:51.920
condition characterized by a lack of blood flow to&nbsp;
parts of the brain. It causes brain cells to die</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:41:51.920,0:42:00.560
in those affected parts. The condition is of two&nbsp;
types, ischemic stroke and hemorrhagic stroke. In</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:42:00.560,0:42:08.880
the former type, a reduced supply of blood is the&nbsp;
causative factor. In the latter, it is bleeding.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:42:08.880,0:42:14.800
The major risk factors causing a stroke are:
Hypertension | High blood</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:42:14.800,0:42:24.960
cholesterol | Obesity | Diabetes mellitus |&nbsp;
End-stage kidney disease | Atrial fibrillation</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:42:24.960,0:42:34.640
In the year 2019, ischemic stroke befell 101.5&nbsp;
million people globally of which 3.3 million</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:42:34.640,0:42:44.480
were left dead whereas 2.9 million died of a&nbsp;
hemorrhagic stroke among 20.7 million that were</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:42:44.480,0:42:53.760
affected by it. In 2015, stroke was the second&nbsp;
biggest killer next to coronary artery disease.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:42:54.800,0:43:00.320
Opening the solar plexus, heart and crown&nbsp;
chakras is the most important maneuver</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:43:00.320,0:43:06.960
to keep any probability of a stroke away.
Skeletal Leap focuses on healing the anatomy</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:43:06.960,0:43:13.280
of the chest and skull through skeletal&nbsp;
meditations to relieve this condition.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:43:13.280,0:43:18.480
Major Depressive Disorder:
Major depressive disorder</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:43:18.480,0:43:25.440
aka depression is a dysfunction of the mind that&nbsp;
also affects the thinking capacity of the brain.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:43:25.440,0:43:30.000
The condition is characterized by:
Low mood | Low self esteem at every</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:43:30.000,0:43:38.880
level | Loss of interest in routine as well as&nbsp;
in fun activities | Delusions | Hallucinations</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:43:38.880,0:43:45.360
The condition, once contracted, stays&nbsp;
for a few months to the entire lifetime.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:43:45.360,0:43:51.600
Psychiatry treats the victims with antidepressant&nbsp;
medication and psychotherapy. In case of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:43:51.600,0:43:59.360
emergencies like acute suicidal tendencies, the&nbsp;
patient needs to be hospitalized for safety.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:43:59.360,0:44:05.520
The causes are believed to be genetic,&nbsp;
environmental as well as psychological.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:44:05.520,0:44:12.080
But nothing has yet proved to be of much&nbsp;
help in curing the disease once and forever.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:44:12.080,0:44:19.440
In the year 2023, major depressive&nbsp;
disorder afflicted 280 million people</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:44:19.440,0:44:27.360
globally. That amounts to almost 4% of&nbsp;
the entire world population. In general,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:44:27.360,0:44:33.600
depression has already started assuming&nbsp;
widespread proportions the world over.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:44:33.600,0:44:42.560
Two Interesting Stories of Internalizing Anger
In my personal experience, depression internalizes</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:44:42.560,0:44:48.320
the patient’s aggressive emotions&nbsp;
against themselves. For example,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:44:48.320,0:44:55.600
it had wrapped its claws around one of my&nbsp;
friends some 40-odd years ago. He could never</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:44:55.600,0:45:02.640
come out of it in the true sense of the word.
Once, even in his acutely depressed mode,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:45:02.640,0:45:10.000
he got angry with me about something we had been&nbsp;
discussing. And he unleashed that anger. As he</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:45:10.000,0:45:17.840
did so, he instantaneously seemed to have come out&nbsp;
of his depression. He sounded exactly like he used</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:45:17.840,0:45:25.600
to sound before he had fallen victim to it. Once&nbsp;
his aggressive expression ended, he slid back into</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:45:25.600,0:45:33.600
his depression. He returned to internalizing his&nbsp;
anger - a characteristic symptom of depression.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:45:33.600,0:45:39.440
I don’t mean to say that aggression or anger&nbsp;
is a healthy stance of mind. I have already</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:45:39.440,0:45:46.160
told you under the topic of ‘Arthritis’ how my&nbsp;
suppressed anger had afflicted me with succumbing</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:45:46.160,0:45:53.680
to viral arthritis. What I mean to say is that&nbsp;
aggression can bring one out of one’s depression.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:45:53.680,0:46:02.000
It can bring one to a state of so-called ‘normal’.
I witnessed another case of internalized anger,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:46:02.000,0:46:08.080
this time in a terminal schizophrenic on&nbsp;
street. He was a recluse who kept roaming</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:46:08.080,0:46:15.600
aimlessly on streets, talking gibberish to no&nbsp;
one in particular. One day, I stood street-side</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:46:15.600,0:46:22.240
with a group of my trainees. It was then that&nbsp;
he passed us by. One of my very aggressive</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:46:22.240,0:46:30.960
trainees mocked him with a derogatory remark.&nbsp;
And what we witnessed next was eye-opening.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:46:30.960,0:46:37.200
The terminal schizophrenic stopped for a moment,&nbsp;
turned back and addressed this aggressive trainee</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:46:37.200,0:46:45.200
of mine loudly. He yelled, “One should at least&nbsp;
possess a sense of etiquette, if nothing else.”</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:46:45.200,0:46:49.920
Immediately thereafter, he went back&nbsp;
to being his gibberish old self.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:46:51.280,0:46:57.200
We were all taken aback by what we had just&nbsp;
seen and heard. A terminal schizophrenic</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:46:57.200,0:47:03.600
had momentarily come out of his illness&nbsp;
and then voluntarily slid back into it!</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:47:03.600,0:47:09.680
Do people take a secure refuge in their mental&nbsp;
disorders unconsciously? Maybe they take this</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:47:09.680,0:47:14.800
secure refuge through internalizing their&nbsp;
emotions against themselves to avoid facing</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:47:14.800,0:47:22.400
the harsh realities of life unconsciously.
It is something we really need to research!</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:47:22.400,0:47:27.200
As far as chakras are concerned,&nbsp;
the chakra that is key to fighting</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:47:27.200,0:47:33.440
depression is an open crown chakra.
Thankfully, today’s world understands</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:47:33.440,0:47:40.160
the seriousness of mental illnesses quite well.&nbsp;
That is why Skeletal Leap focuses on healing the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:47:40.160,0:47:46.640
entire body anatomy, which, in turn, tends to&nbsp;
heal the neurology and the psychology of the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:47:46.640,0:47:51.520
entire mind-body system.
Obesity:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:47:51.520,0:47:59.680
Obesity as a debilitating condition of excess fat&nbsp;
on the body disrupts health, fitness and wellness.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:48:00.480,0:48:06.480
Obesity is quantitatively defined&nbsp;
as body mass index (BMI) crossing</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:48:06.480,0:48:10.960
30 kilogram of body weight per&nbsp;
meter square of height. The range</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:48:10.960,0:48:16.080
between 25-30 kilogram per meter&nbsp;
square is defined as overweight.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:48:16.800,0:48:19.680
The condition is considered&nbsp;
to be a breeding ground for:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:48:19.680,0:48:26.560
Cardiovascular diseases | Type 2 diabetes&nbsp;
| Obstructive sleep apnea | Some specific</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:48:26.560,0:48:33.440
cancers | Osteoarthritis | Depression (in&nbsp;
a dialectical relationship with obesity)</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:48:34.080,0:48:37.360
Obesity has a long list of&nbsp;
causative factors including:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:48:37.360,0:48:43.120
Dietary imbalance | Physical&nbsp;
inactivity | Automotive devices | Urban</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:48:43.120,0:48:52.240
lifestyle | Genetics | Excess medicinal intake&nbsp;
| Mental dysfunctions | Endocrine disorders</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:48:52.240,0:48:58.160
Right now, more than 42% of all Americans&nbsp;
are obese. Also, the number of obese people</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:48:58.160,0:49:05.040
globally has more than doubled in the last 30&nbsp;
years resulting in 2.8 million annual deaths by</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:49:05.040,0:49:15.680</p>



<ol start="2021" class="wp-block-list">
<li>By the year 2015, the US and China topped&nbsp;
the list of obese populations. By the same year,</li>
</ol>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:49:15.680,0:49:21.920
China and India topped the list of countries&nbsp;
with the largest numbers of obese children.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:49:21.920,0:49:28.400
Obesity throughout the world has assumed a&nbsp;
debilitating stature making its scale even</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:49:28.400,0:49:34.560
larger than any other disease. That is why and&nbsp;
how the weight loss business has become one of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:49:34.560,0:49:41.280
the most lucrative businesses the world over!
Skeletal Leap addresses the challenge of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:49:41.280,0:49:47.200
obesity through skeletal meditations&nbsp;
healing the entire body’s anatomy.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:49:47.200,0:49:52.640
Here is an interesting corollary:
The best way to lose belly fat is</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:49:52.640,0:49:58.960
opening the solar plexus chakra. Doing&nbsp;
so relaxes the thoracic diaphragm which,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:49:58.960,0:50:06.160
in turn, makes exhalations more emphatic than&nbsp;
inhalations while breathing. And, as breathing</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:50:06.160,0:50:14.080
is a 24 hour process, it tends to lose belly fat&nbsp;
much faster than any other weight loss method.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:50:14.080,0:50:18.400
Vascular Dementia:
Vascular dementia is a type of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:50:18.400,0:50:24.400
dementia caused by aberrations in blood supply&nbsp;
to the brain. Such aberrations result in minor</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:50:24.400,0:50:31.040
strokes accompanied by degenerative cognition.&nbsp;
With the passage of time, the brain structure</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:50:31.040,0:50:38.480
experiences an irreversible cognitive regression.
Vascular dementia is the second biggest cause</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:50:38.480,0:50:44.720
of dementia-related deaths, the first being&nbsp;
Alzheimer’s disease. The condition afflicts</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:50:44.720,0:50:51.440
1.5% of the population in Western countries and&nbsp;
an even larger section in the rest of the world.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:50:52.560,0:50:58.720
Opening the crown chakra tends to heal&nbsp;
vascular dementia the most effective way.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:50:58.720,0:51:03.760
Skeletal Leap addresses dementia through&nbsp;
skeletal meditations healing the entire</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:51:03.760,0:51:11.440
body’s anatomy. As anatomy heals,&nbsp;
neurology and physiology follow suit.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:51:11.440,0:51:16.800
Immune System Dysfunction:
Our immune system is a defensive network of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:51:16.800,0:51:24.480
biological processes aimed at protection against&nbsp;
diseases. It first detects a pathogen, animate or</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:51:24.480,0:51:32.320
inanimate, and then responds to it appropriately.
It has two major subsystems:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:51:32.320,0:51:36.720
Innate immune system -&nbsp;
protects against any pathogen</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:51:37.680,0:51:44.880
Adaptive immune system - protects against those&nbsp;
pathogens for which antibodies have already been</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:51:44.880,0:51:50.960
formed (which is how vaccines work)
Immune system dysfunction may cause:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:51:50.960,0:51:56.800
Autoimmune diseases |&nbsp;
Inflammatory diseases | Cancer</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:51:56.800,0:51:58.640
Immunodeficiency may stem from:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:51:58.640,0:52:01.360
Genetic disease like severe combined</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:52:01.360,0:52:10.320
immunodeficiency | HIV/AIDS | Use&nbsp;
of immunosuppressive medication</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:52:10.320,0:52:15.440
Autoimmunity indicates a hyperactive&nbsp;
immune system attacking its own healthy</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:52:15.440,0:52:20.960
tissues mistaking them to be foreign&nbsp;
invaders. It may result in diseases like:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:52:20.960,0:52:27.920
Hashimoto’s thyroiditis | Rheumatoid&nbsp;
arthritis | Diabetes mellitus type 1&nbsp;|</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:52:27.920,0:52:35.920
Systemic lupus erythematosus | Inflammatory bowel&nbsp;
disease | Multiple sclerosis | Guillain-Barre</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:52:35.920,0:52:42.240
syndrome | Chronic inflammatory demyelinating&nbsp;
polyneuropathy | Psoriasis | Grave’s</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:52:42.240,0:52:54.080
disease | Myasthenia gravis | Vasculitis | Celiac&nbsp;
disease | Addison’s disease | Pernicious anemia</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:52:54.080,0:53:00.800
Innate immune system is the ultimate savior as&nbsp;
it works in a generic manner against pathogens</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:53:00.800,0:53:08.000
through pattern recognition receptors. Adaptive&nbsp;
immune system may work in a stronger manner</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:53:08.000,0:53:14.880
but only against limited pathogens. These few&nbsp;
pathogens are the ones that the innate immune</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:53:14.880,0:53:21.440
system has already built antibodies against.
Hence everything essentially falls back on the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:53:21.440,0:53:27.840
protective support system created by the&nbsp;
innate immune system in the first place.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:53:27.840,0:53:34.080
The Story of How My Innate Immune System&nbsp;
Protected Me against the Coronavirus</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:53:34.080,0:53:40.800
In the year 2021, I had a family of relatives&nbsp;
over. We would soon realize that all three of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:53:40.800,0:53:47.360
them had already contracted the Omicron variant&nbsp;
of the Covid-19 virus on their flight to my city.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:53:47.360,0:53:54.080
As was expected, they passed on the extremely&nbsp;
contagious virus to my entire family as well. Even</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:53:54.080,0:54:00.960
the vaccinated ones weren’t being spared from it.
First of all, my daughter and a vaccinated friend</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:54:00.960,0:54:07.840
of hers who had accompanied her to our house&nbsp;
went down. Then another friend of mine who</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:54:07.840,0:54:16.160
had visited me in their presence fell prey to&nbsp;
it. Next, it was my wife to contract Omicron.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:54:16.160,0:54:20.960
Logically, I should have been the next to&nbsp;
catch the virus as there was none else left</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:54:20.960,0:54:28.240
uninfected. Everyone including me kept waiting&nbsp;
for the virus to afflict me but it just didn’t</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:54:28.240,0:54:36.480
happen. All of us were astonished. I was not even&nbsp;
vaccinated. It occurred to me that my practice of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:54:36.480,0:54:43.280
central fixation might have been my savior.
Central fixation empties the mind and sets</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:54:43.280,0:54:48.640
it free not only turning the mind-body&nbsp;
system spontaneously intelligent but also</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:54:48.640,0:54:56.320
strengthening its innate immune system. It opens&nbsp;
chakras via skeletal re-posturing of the body.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:54:56.320,0:55:02.800
It is this skeletal re-posturing that works&nbsp;
wonders and is at the heart of Skeletal Leap.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:55:03.600,0:55:10.480
The Omicron variant later entered the&nbsp;
phase of widespread contagion. In contrast,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:55:10.480,0:55:17.360
I was spared despite close proximity to&nbsp;
its source right inside my own house.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:55:17.360,0:55:22.000
This experience does say something, perhaps a lot,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:55:22.000,0:55:28.800
about the extraordinary efficacy of central&nbsp;
fixation of the eyes, the body and the mind!</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:55:29.440,0:55:36.240
I always felt that we, the Homo sapiens all&nbsp;
over the world, overreacted to Covid-19 and</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:55:36.240,0:55:41.520
rushed in a host of vaccines without&nbsp;
even doing their human trials. That is</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:55:41.520,0:55:49.120
why even the vaccinated ones aren’t really&nbsp;
safe against the virus and its variants.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:55:49.120,0:55:54.960
Skeletal Leap addresses all immune system&nbsp;
dysfunctions through skeletal meditations, healing</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:55:54.960,0:56:03.040
the entire body’s anatomy. Once the anatomy&nbsp;
heals, the physiology follows in its footsteps.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:56:03.040,0:56:08.800
The other day, I received a text meme forwarded&nbsp;
to my mobile that made me laugh out loud (which</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:56:08.800,0:56:16.400
I generally don’t). It’s hilarious!&nbsp;
Must enjoy reading it in my PDF version.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:56:16.400,0:56:23.200
We are going to look at the role of stress in&nbsp;
generating lifestyle diseases in the next episode.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:56:23.920,0:56:29.360
We will also look at the role of&nbsp;
Skeletal Leap in dealing with stress.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:56:29.360,0:56:36.720
Thanks for listening to this episode of Skeletal&nbsp;
Leap: A Living Adventure! In the next episode,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:56:36.720,0:56:45.040
I will tell you about what stress really means&nbsp;
in terms of chakras and skeletal postures.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:01.040,0:00:06.400
I mastered the chakra discipline to&nbsp;
understand how opening chakras via</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:06.400,0:00:25.680
re-posturing the skeleton may correct vision.
My name is Laadi Ojas. Welcome to “Skeletal</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:25.680,0:00:34.160
Leap: A Living Adventure”. Skeletal Leap&nbsp;
transforms one’s life into a personal heaven.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:34.160,0:00:37.200
Today’s episode will tell you about how skeletal</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:37.200,0:00:43.120
postures affect mind through&nbsp;
distorting skeletal joints.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:43.120,0:00:48.960
Human skeleton is not just a static chassis on&nbsp;
which the rest of the body, with its various</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:48.960,0:00:56.800
organs, stays erect. It is a highly complex moving&nbsp;
machine that is capable of making miraculous</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:56.800,0:01:04.240
maneuvers as and when required. It does so with&nbsp;
the help of different kinds of skeletal joints.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:04.240,0:01:10.240
Let’s first look at the temporomandibular&nbsp;
joints&nbsp;in greater detail. This joint comprises</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:10.240,0:01:17.280
the only movable bone mandible in the skull.&nbsp;
Temporomandibular Joints</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:17.280,0:01:23.600
Temporomandibular joints connect the jawbone&nbsp;
to the skull at two points. It is a bilateral</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:23.600,0:01:30.720
synovial (freely mobile with synovial fluid)&nbsp;
joint between the temporal bone above and the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:30.720,0:01:38.080
mandible below. Since it is bilateral, the&nbsp;
left and right parts always work together.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:38.080,0:01:43.200
The joint comprises:
The joint capsule is an</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:43.200,0:01:50.720
envelope attached to the mandibular fossa and the&nbsp;
articular tubercle above. It is also attached to</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:50.720,0:01:59.600
the neck of the condyle of the mandible below.
The articular disc is a dense fibrocartilagenous</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:59.600,0:02:04.880
tissue between condyle of the&nbsp;
mandible and mandibular fossa.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:06.160,0:02:10.480
Temporomandibular ligament is&nbsp;
the thickened lateral portion</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:10.480,0:02:19.440
of the stylomandibular ligament capsule.
Sphenomandibular ligament becomes accentuated</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:19.440,0:02:25.680
and taut when the mandible is protruded.
When are the temporomandibular joints</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:25.680,0:02:32.560
and their related muscles in a state of rest?&nbsp;
Surprisingly, it is not with the teeth biting</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:32.560,0:02:41.280
together but with a 2mm to 4mm of space between&nbsp;
them with both, the upper and the lower dentures,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:41.280,0:02:48.240
being in the same plane. It is done via protruding&nbsp;
the lower jaw forward to bring the two of them</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:48.240,0:02:55.520
in the same plane across their entire width.&nbsp;
But almost no one ever postures them that way.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:55.520,0:03:02.400
That is one of the postural faults humanity&nbsp;
has been living with, since bipedalism.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:02.400,0:03:09.760
A fully open jaw measures 40 to 50mm between the&nbsp;
upper and lower front teeth. When the jaw moves,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:09.760,0:03:16.160
it is only the mandible that moves.
Mandible movements are called excursions.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:16.160,0:03:24.560
There are two lateral excursions, left and right.&nbsp;
And there is a forward excursion called protrusion</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:24.560,0:03:30.240
that everyone does everyday while brushing&nbsp;
the teeth. It is because protrusion brings</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:30.240,0:03:37.360
the upper and the lower dentures in one single&nbsp;
plane enabling easy brushing. The excursion</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:37.360,0:03:44.080
opposite to protrusion is called retrusion.
Now that we have got a basic understanding</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:44.080,0:03:48.960
of the temporomandibular joints,&nbsp;
let us investigate how and why our</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:48.960,0:03:58.560
vision - far or near - gets blurred. You may be&nbsp;
wondering what the jaw has to do with vision!</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:58.560,0:04:06.000
Well, that is exactly why this is one of the best&nbsp;
ways to investigate how skeletal postures affect</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:06.000,0:04:14.880
the mind. Alright…so, now we have gone from the&nbsp;
jaw to eyesight, all the way to the brain. We</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:14.880,0:04:21.680
are on the path to understanding how a corrupted&nbsp;
skeletal posture corrupts the mind by corrupting</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:21.680,0:04:27.840
the brain’s neurophysiology.
Let me explain further.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:27.840,0:04:33.040
How Posturing of Temporomandibular&nbsp;
Joints Affects Eyesight</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:33.760,0:04:40.160
Blurred vision is certainly a lifestyle disease.
It has been present throughout the world since the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:40.160,0:04:48.160
beginning of bipedalism. Almost everyone falls&nbsp;
prey to it, some of them early in life and the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:48.160,0:04:55.840
rest after the age of 40. We don’t really bother&nbsp;
much about it since the use of eyeglasses has</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:55.840,0:05:02.640
been accepted as part of the modern lifestyle!&nbsp;
But what we are missing is that this lifestyle</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:02.640,0:05:10.240
disease doesn’t end with just a blurred vision. It&nbsp;
is just the beginning of a massive problem. It is</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:10.240,0:05:17.600
an indication and warning that the neurophysiology&nbsp;
of our entire body, including our face, is not</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:17.600,0:05:25.120
working right. It has already been afflicted&nbsp;
with a corrupted mind in our mind-body system.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:26.000,0:05:33.120
It renders us vulnerable to various other&nbsp;
lifestyle diseases in time to come. Going</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:33.120,0:05:39.920
for a surgical option like LASIK doesn’t address&nbsp;
this vulnerability either. And that is because</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:39.920,0:05:46.880
LASIK just creates proxy eyeglasses within&nbsp;
the corneas of our eyes and nothing else.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:47.600,0:05:53.840
Another reason to investigate blurred vision&nbsp;
as an example is that its correction through</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:53.840,0:06:00.880
skeletal meditation shows instant results.&nbsp;
That way, we can be sure about being on the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:00.880,0:06:07.760
right track with our investigations into a&nbsp;
corrupted mind. Surprisingly, the human skull</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:07.760,0:06:14.320
is partially separate in its anatomy and&nbsp;
physiology from the human torso and limbs.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:15.040,0:06:21.280
Hence, we can immediately empty the mind partially&nbsp;
of its visual corruption, in the skull alone,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:21.280,0:06:30.320
through its skeletal re-posturing. Thus we can&nbsp;
check its effect on the eyesight then and there.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:30.320,0:06:36.960
This eliminates guesswork and time in proving the&nbsp;
hypothesis. That is what a laboratory procedure</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:36.960,0:06:45.760
of deciding a hypothesis right or wrong is.
As mentioned in Episode 18, my life has been a</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:45.760,0:06:52.880
seesaw between blurred and crystal-clear vision.&nbsp;
Only until I solved the puzzle by discovering</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:52.880,0:07:00.000
a concrete physical procedure, though!
In retrospect, I feel I was lucky to have</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:00.000,0:07:07.360
experienced blurred vision. Why? Because&nbsp;
that was exactly what made me jump into</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:07.360,0:07:13.600
this entire discipline of Skeletal Leap. At&nbsp;
the same time, it also provided me with an</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:13.600,0:07:21.520
instantaneous testing ground for my skeletal&nbsp;
hypotheses in an absolutely tangible manner.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:21.520,0:07:26.800
But what about those between 0 - 40 years of age&nbsp;
who don’t have any problem with their eyesight</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:26.800,0:07:32.000
at present? How can they investigate&nbsp;
the effect of central fixation on the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:32.000,0:07:38.400
clarity of their vision, far and near?
Luckily, they can also witness a marked</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:38.400,0:07:45.520
enhancement in the clarity of their vision when&nbsp;
they see with central fixation of the eyes. If</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:45.520,0:07:54.560
their distant vision is 20/20, central fixation&nbsp;
can enhance it to be something like 30/20. Same</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:54.560,0:08:02.800
with the near vision! If the near sight measures&nbsp;
N6, they can easily enhance it to N3 or even more.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:03.920,0:08:09.040
Hence everyone can investigate central&nbsp;
fixation of the eyes successfully,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:09.040,0:08:15.840
regardless of the quality of their vision.
I mastered the chakra discipline to understand</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:15.840,0:08:24.400
how opening chakras via re-posturing the skeleton&nbsp;
may correct vision. It all amounted to emptying</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:24.400,0:08:31.360
the mind through rectifying the neurophysiology of&nbsp;
the visual system to be able to see crystal clear.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:32.080,0:08:38.720
It took place via maneuvering the mandible&nbsp;
which is the only movable bone in the skull.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:38.720,0:08:42.960
The mandible is the jawbone forming&nbsp;
the lower jaw and keeping the lower</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:42.960,0:08:51.440
denture in place. It is the biggest and the&nbsp;
strongest bone in the facial skeleton. The</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:51.440,0:08:56.960
mandible is connected to the temporal&nbsp;
bones through temporomandibular joints.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:57.760,0:09:04.240
Hence when the mandible is maneuvered,&nbsp;
temporomandibular joints get maneuvered along.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:04.240,0:09:10.800
The said postural maneuver aligns the upper and&nbsp;
the lower dentures in one single plane along their</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:10.800,0:09:19.280
entire lengths. It results in opening the third&nbsp;
eye chakra and crown chakra, in one single go,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:19.280,0:09:26.400
by maneuvering the muscles named frontalis,&nbsp;
occipitalis and temporalis in the skull.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:27.760,0:09:32.960
The Muscles Associated with&nbsp;
Temporomandibular Joints</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:32.960,0:09:41.120
Now, what are those muscles associated with&nbsp;
temporomandibular joints? I said associated,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:41.120,0:09:49.120
not necessarily attached to the joint! The&nbsp;
muscles directly attached are the agonist or</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:49.120,0:09:55.920
the prime movers. But there are many more&nbsp;
in the vicinity that are synergistically</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:55.920,0:10:02.640
associated with the same action. They&nbsp;
assist the prime movers by imparting an</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:02.640,0:10:10.400
extra punch to the primary action with their&nbsp;
own associated actions. The said actions may</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:10.400,0:10:16.720
either be contracting a muscle or relaxing&nbsp;
an already habitually contracted muscle.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:17.280,0:10:24.720
The prime movers are:
Temporalis Muscle: elevates and retracts mandible</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:24.720,0:10:30.960
Masseter Muscle: elevates and retracts mandible</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:30.960,0:10:36.000
Lateral Pterigoid Muscle: depresses mandible</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:36.000,0:10:39.600
Medial Pterigoid Muscle: elevates mandible and</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:39.600,0:10:44.000
helps lateral pterygoid in&nbsp;
moving jaw from side to side</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:44.800,0:10:51.040
Every chakra is a complex of a corrupted&nbsp;
joint and huge numbers of associated muscles,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:51.040,0:10:55.840
nerves and arteries which have all been corrupted.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:55.840,0:11:03.840
That is how a corrupted posture in any part of the&nbsp;
body gives birth to a partially corrupted mind.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:03.840,0:11:09.120
As we know, we open the third eye chakra&nbsp;
and the crown chakra in one single go by</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:09.120,0:11:15.360
moving the temporomandibular joints up&nbsp;
and out by maneuvering the mandible.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:15.360,0:11:19.520
This posture ensures the alignment of&nbsp;
the upper and the lower dentures in</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:19.520,0:11:27.760
one single plane along their entire lengths.
But the entire maneuver is extremely subtle,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:27.760,0:11:34.080
hence quite complex. This is because of an&nbsp;
emergent need to balance the actions of the prime</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:34.080,0:11:41.840
movers and other synergetic muscular actions.
This and other such maneuvers for various</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:41.840,0:11:46.400
other joints along the skeleton are&nbsp;
what the corresponding sets of guided</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:46.400,0:11:54.160
meditations are made of. Together, these&nbsp;
guided meditations enable Skeletal Leap.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:54.160,0:11:59.760
A guided meditation under the direct&nbsp;
supervision of an experienced guide is</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:59.760,0:12:04.960
the best way to take the Skeletal Leap.
And that is how we can partially</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:04.960,0:12:11.200
empty the mind and set a specific&nbsp;
physiological system back on track.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:11.200,0:12:16.560
There Are Many Other Systems And&nbsp;
Subsystems Like The Visual Subsystem</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:17.280,0:12:22.320
Blurred vision is a perfect example of&nbsp;
a corrupted mind stopping the brain from</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:22.320,0:12:30.320
clear visual perception via unblocked nerve&nbsp;
signals. But there is a caveat here. The</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:30.320,0:12:37.600
visual system is not the only subsystem of the&nbsp;
nervous system in our total mind-body system.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:37.600,0:12:43.040
There are several similar ones along&nbsp;
with their respective subsystems.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:43.040,0:12:49.520
The visual system that we investigated is a&nbsp;
subsystem of the nervous system. We can certainly</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:49.520,0:12:57.920
correct these individual systems or subsystems&nbsp;
locally, but there is again a caveat here.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:57.920,0:13:05.440
Like muscles have their synergetic partners,&nbsp;
chakras do too. And why shouldn’t they? After all,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:05.440,0:13:13.280
they are the result of corrupted skeletal postures&nbsp;
and their associated muscles, nerves and arteries.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:13.280,0:13:20.480
By that token, all 7 chakras are synergetic&nbsp;
partners of one another. Synergetic partners tend</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:20.480,0:13:29.120
to amplify whatever the prime mover decides to do.
If we decide to open one single chakra,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:29.120,0:13:35.040
all the other 6 would tend to amplify its&nbsp;
action. But that is only possible when those</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:35.040,0:13:42.720
6 are already open. Otherwise, they would just&nbsp;
do the opposite in the long run, i.e, negate</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:42.720,0:13:50.800
the action taken to open that one single chakra.
So, it is never a wise decision to open any of the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:50.800,0:14:00.080
chakras in isolation. Our best bet is to open them&nbsp;
all in one inter-related, chronological sequence.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:00.880,0:14:07.840
We cannot effectively empty a fragment of our&nbsp;
mind and hope that it will continue to remain so.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:07.840,0:14:14.640
Corruptions of the mind from its other fragments&nbsp;
would rush to fill in that empty space later if</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:14.640,0:14:23.120
not sooner. How long shall we be able to keep it&nbsp;
protected from its offenders? But if the entire</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:23.120,0:14:31.040
mind goes empty in one inter-related chronological&nbsp;
sequence, it would tend to remain empty forever.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:31.040,0:14:36.080
And it is not an impossible&nbsp;
task to empty the mind that way.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:36.080,0:14:41.440
In fact, that is exactly&nbsp;
what leads to Skeletal Leap!</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Join me as I explore how the human skeleton, a complex and dynamic structure, plays a vital role in our overall well-being, particularly our eyesight.&nbsp;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The episode focuses on the temporomandibular joints, the only movable bones in the skull, and how their alignment can significantly impact vision.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Discover the surprising connections between jaw posture and blurred vision, a condition that has plagued humanity since the dawn of bipedalism.&nbsp;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">I will explains how improper jaw alignment can lead to a cascade of neurophysiological issues affecting the mind and body.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Learn about the importance of central fixation in enhancing visual clarity, regardless of your current eyesight.&nbsp;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The episode also covers the role of chakras in this process, revealing how skeletal reposturing can open energy pathways and restore visual acuity.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:01.040,0:00:06.400
I mastered the chakra discipline to&nbsp;
understand how opening chakras via</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:06.400,0:00:25.680
re-posturing the skeleton may correct vision.
My name is Laadi Ojas. Welcome to “Skeletal</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:25.680,0:00:34.160
Leap: A Living Adventure”. Skeletal Leap&nbsp;
transforms one’s life into a personal heaven.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:34.160,0:00:37.200
Today’s episode will tell you about how skeletal</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:37.200,0:00:43.120
postures affect mind through&nbsp;
distorting skeletal joints.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:43.120,0:00:48.960
Human skeleton is not just a static chassis on&nbsp;
which the rest of the body, with its various</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:48.960,0:00:56.800
organs, stays erect. It is a highly complex moving&nbsp;
machine that is capable of making miraculous</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:56.800,0:01:04.240
maneuvers as and when required. It does so with&nbsp;
the help of different kinds of skeletal joints.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:04.240,0:01:10.240
Let’s first look at the temporomandibular&nbsp;
joints&nbsp;in greater detail. This joint comprises</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:10.240,0:01:17.280
the only movable bone mandible in the skull.&nbsp;
Temporomandibular Joints</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:17.280,0:01:23.600
Temporomandibular joints connect the jawbone&nbsp;
to the skull at two points. It is a bilateral</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:23.600,0:01:30.720
synovial (freely mobile with synovial fluid)&nbsp;
joint between the temporal bone above and the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:30.720,0:01:38.080
mandible below. Since it is bilateral, the&nbsp;
left and right parts always work together.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:38.080,0:01:43.200
The joint comprises:
The joint capsule is an</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:43.200,0:01:50.720
envelope attached to the mandibular fossa and the&nbsp;
articular tubercle above. It is also attached to</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:50.720,0:01:59.600
the neck of the condyle of the mandible below.
The articular disc is a dense fibrocartilagenous</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:59.600,0:02:04.880
tissue between condyle of the&nbsp;
mandible and mandibular fossa.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:06.160,0:02:10.480
Temporomandibular ligament is&nbsp;
the thickened lateral portion</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:10.480,0:02:19.440
of the stylomandibular ligament capsule.
Sphenomandibular ligament becomes accentuated</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:19.440,0:02:25.680
and taut when the mandible is protruded.
When are the temporomandibular joints</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:25.680,0:02:32.560
and their related muscles in a state of rest?&nbsp;
Surprisingly, it is not with the teeth biting</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:32.560,0:02:41.280
together but with a 2mm to 4mm of space between&nbsp;
them with both, the upper and the lower dentures,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:41.280,0:02:48.240
being in the same plane. It is done via protruding&nbsp;
the lower jaw forward to bring the two of them</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:48.240,0:02:55.520
in the same plane across their entire width.&nbsp;
But almost no one ever postures them that way.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:55.520,0:03:02.400
That is one of the postural faults humanity&nbsp;
has been living with, since bipedalism.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:02.400,0:03:09.760
A fully open jaw measures 40 to 50mm between the&nbsp;
upper and lower front teeth. When the jaw moves,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:09.760,0:03:16.160
it is only the mandible that moves.
Mandible movements are called excursions.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:16.160,0:03:24.560
There are two lateral excursions, left and right.&nbsp;
And there is a forward excursion called protrusion</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:24.560,0:03:30.240
that everyone does everyday while brushing&nbsp;
the teeth. It is because protrusion brings</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:30.240,0:03:37.360
the upper and the lower dentures in one single&nbsp;
plane enabling easy brushing. The excursion</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:37.360,0:03:44.080
opposite to protrusion is called retrusion.
Now that we have got a basic understanding</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:44.080,0:03:48.960
of the temporomandibular joints,&nbsp;
let us investigate how and why our</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:48.960,0:03:58.560
vision - far or near - gets blurred. You may be&nbsp;
wondering what the jaw has to do with vision!</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:58.560,0:04:06.000
Well, that is exactly why this is one of the best&nbsp;
ways to investigate how skeletal postures affect</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:06.000,0:04:14.880
the mind. Alright…so, now we have gone from the&nbsp;
jaw to eyesight, all the way to the brain. We</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:14.880,0:04:21.680
are on the path to understanding how a corrupted&nbsp;
skeletal posture corrupts the mind by corrupting</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:21.680,0:04:27.840
the brain’s neurophysiology.
Let me explain further.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:27.840,0:04:33.040
How Posturing of Temporomandibular&nbsp;
Joints Affects Eyesight</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:33.760,0:04:40.160
Blurred vision is certainly a lifestyle disease.
It has been present throughout the world since the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:40.160,0:04:48.160
beginning of bipedalism. Almost everyone falls&nbsp;
prey to it, some of them early in life and the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:48.160,0:04:55.840
rest after the age of 40. We don’t really bother&nbsp;
much about it since the use of eyeglasses has</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:55.840,0:05:02.640
been accepted as part of the modern lifestyle!&nbsp;
But what we are missing is that this lifestyle</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:02.640,0:05:10.240
disease doesn’t end with just a blurred vision. It&nbsp;
is just the beginning of a massive problem. It is</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:10.240,0:05:17.600
an indication and warning that the neurophysiology&nbsp;
of our entire body, including our face, is not</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:17.600,0:05:25.120
working right. It has already been afflicted&nbsp;
with a corrupted mind in our mind-body system.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:26.000,0:05:33.120
It renders us vulnerable to various other&nbsp;
lifestyle diseases in time to come. Going</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:33.120,0:05:39.920
for a surgical option like LASIK doesn’t address&nbsp;
this vulnerability either. And that is because</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:39.920,0:05:46.880
LASIK just creates proxy eyeglasses within&nbsp;
the corneas of our eyes and nothing else.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:47.600,0:05:53.840
Another reason to investigate blurred vision&nbsp;
as an example is that its correction through</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:53.840,0:06:00.880
skeletal meditation shows instant results.&nbsp;
That way, we can be sure about being on the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:00.880,0:06:07.760
right track with our investigations into a&nbsp;
corrupted mind. Surprisingly, the human skull</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:07.760,0:06:14.320
is partially separate in its anatomy and&nbsp;
physiology from the human torso and limbs.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:15.040,0:06:21.280
Hence, we can immediately empty the mind partially&nbsp;
of its visual corruption, in the skull alone,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:21.280,0:06:30.320
through its skeletal re-posturing. Thus we can&nbsp;
check its effect on the eyesight then and there.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:30.320,0:06:36.960
This eliminates guesswork and time in proving the&nbsp;
hypothesis. That is what a laboratory procedure</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:36.960,0:06:45.760
of deciding a hypothesis right or wrong is.
As mentioned in Episode 18, my life has been a</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:45.760,0:06:52.880
seesaw between blurred and crystal-clear vision.&nbsp;
Only until I solved the puzzle by discovering</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:52.880,0:07:00.000
a concrete physical procedure, though!
In retrospect, I feel I was lucky to have</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:00.000,0:07:07.360
experienced blurred vision. Why? Because&nbsp;
that was exactly what made me jump into</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:07.360,0:07:13.600
this entire discipline of Skeletal Leap. At&nbsp;
the same time, it also provided me with an</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:13.600,0:07:21.520
instantaneous testing ground for my skeletal&nbsp;
hypotheses in an absolutely tangible manner.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:21.520,0:07:26.800
But what about those between 0 - 40 years of age&nbsp;
who don’t have any problem with their eyesight</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:26.800,0:07:32.000
at present? How can they investigate&nbsp;
the effect of central fixation on the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:32.000,0:07:38.400
clarity of their vision, far and near?
Luckily, they can also witness a marked</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:38.400,0:07:45.520
enhancement in the clarity of their vision when&nbsp;
they see with central fixation of the eyes. If</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:45.520,0:07:54.560
their distant vision is 20/20, central fixation&nbsp;
can enhance it to be something like 30/20. Same</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:54.560,0:08:02.800
with the near vision! If the near sight measures&nbsp;
N6, they can easily enhance it to N3 or even more.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:03.920,0:08:09.040
Hence everyone can investigate central&nbsp;
fixation of the eyes successfully,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:09.040,0:08:15.840
regardless of the quality of their vision.
I mastered the chakra discipline to understand</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:15.840,0:08:24.400
how opening chakras via re-posturing the skeleton&nbsp;
may correct vision. It all amounted to emptying</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:24.400,0:08:31.360
the mind through rectifying the neurophysiology of&nbsp;
the visual system to be able to see crystal clear.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:32.080,0:08:38.720
It took place via maneuvering the mandible&nbsp;
which is the only movable bone in the skull.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:38.720,0:08:42.960
The mandible is the jawbone forming&nbsp;
the lower jaw and keeping the lower</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:42.960,0:08:51.440
denture in place. It is the biggest and the&nbsp;
strongest bone in the facial skeleton. The</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:51.440,0:08:56.960
mandible is connected to the temporal&nbsp;
bones through temporomandibular joints.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:57.760,0:09:04.240
Hence when the mandible is maneuvered,&nbsp;
temporomandibular joints get maneuvered along.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:04.240,0:09:10.800
The said postural maneuver aligns the upper and&nbsp;
the lower dentures in one single plane along their</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:10.800,0:09:19.280
entire lengths. It results in opening the third&nbsp;
eye chakra and crown chakra, in one single go,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:19.280,0:09:26.400
by maneuvering the muscles named frontalis,&nbsp;
occipitalis and temporalis in the skull.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:27.760,0:09:32.960
The Muscles Associated with&nbsp;
Temporomandibular Joints</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:32.960,0:09:41.120
Now, what are those muscles associated with&nbsp;
temporomandibular joints? I said associated,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:41.120,0:09:49.120
not necessarily attached to the joint! The&nbsp;
muscles directly attached are the agonist or</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:49.120,0:09:55.920
the prime movers. But there are many more&nbsp;
in the vicinity that are synergistically</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:55.920,0:10:02.640
associated with the same action. They&nbsp;
assist the prime movers by imparting an</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:02.640,0:10:10.400
extra punch to the primary action with their&nbsp;
own associated actions. The said actions may</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:10.400,0:10:16.720
either be contracting a muscle or relaxing&nbsp;
an already habitually contracted muscle.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:17.280,0:10:24.720
The prime movers are:
Temporalis Muscle: elevates and retracts mandible</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:24.720,0:10:30.960
Masseter Muscle: elevates and retracts mandible</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:30.960,0:10:36.000
Lateral Pterigoid Muscle: depresses mandible</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:36.000,0:10:39.600
Medial Pterigoid Muscle: elevates mandible and</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:39.600,0:10:44.000
helps lateral pterygoid in&nbsp;
moving jaw from side to side</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:44.800,0:10:51.040
Every chakra is a complex of a corrupted&nbsp;
joint and huge numbers of associated muscles,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:51.040,0:10:55.840
nerves and arteries which have all been corrupted.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:55.840,0:11:03.840
That is how a corrupted posture in any part of the&nbsp;
body gives birth to a partially corrupted mind.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:03.840,0:11:09.120
As we know, we open the third eye chakra&nbsp;
and the crown chakra in one single go by</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:09.120,0:11:15.360
moving the temporomandibular joints up&nbsp;
and out by maneuvering the mandible.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:15.360,0:11:19.520
This posture ensures the alignment of&nbsp;
the upper and the lower dentures in</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:19.520,0:11:27.760
one single plane along their entire lengths.
But the entire maneuver is extremely subtle,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:27.760,0:11:34.080
hence quite complex. This is because of an&nbsp;
emergent need to balance the actions of the prime</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:34.080,0:11:41.840
movers and other synergetic muscular actions.
This and other such maneuvers for various</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:41.840,0:11:46.400
other joints along the skeleton are&nbsp;
what the corresponding sets of guided</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:46.400,0:11:54.160
meditations are made of. Together, these&nbsp;
guided meditations enable Skeletal Leap.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:54.160,0:11:59.760
A guided meditation under the direct&nbsp;
supervision of an experienced guide is</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:59.760,0:12:04.960
the best way to take the Skeletal Leap.
And that is how we can partially</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:04.960,0:12:11.200
empty the mind and set a specific&nbsp;
physiological system back on track.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:11.200,0:12:16.560
There Are Many Other Systems And&nbsp;
Subsystems Like The Visual Subsystem</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:17.280,0:12:22.320
Blurred vision is a perfect example of&nbsp;
a corrupted mind stopping the brain from</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:22.320,0:12:30.320
clear visual perception via unblocked nerve&nbsp;
signals. But there is a caveat here. The</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:30.320,0:12:37.600
visual system is not the only subsystem of the&nbsp;
nervous system in our total mind-body system.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:37.600,0:12:43.040
There are several similar ones along&nbsp;
with their respective subsystems.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:43.040,0:12:49.520
The visual system that we investigated is a&nbsp;
subsystem of the nervous system. We can certainly</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:49.520,0:12:57.920
correct these individual systems or subsystems&nbsp;
locally, but there is again a caveat here.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:57.920,0:13:05.440
Like muscles have their synergetic partners,&nbsp;
chakras do too. And why shouldn’t they? After all,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:05.440,0:13:13.280
they are the result of corrupted skeletal postures&nbsp;
and their associated muscles, nerves and arteries.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:13.280,0:13:20.480
By that token, all 7 chakras are synergetic&nbsp;
partners of one another. Synergetic partners tend</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:20.480,0:13:29.120
to amplify whatever the prime mover decides to do.
If we decide to open one single chakra,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:29.120,0:13:35.040
all the other 6 would tend to amplify its&nbsp;
action. But that is only possible when those</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:35.040,0:13:42.720
6 are already open. Otherwise, they would just&nbsp;
do the opposite in the long run, i.e, negate</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:42.720,0:13:50.800
the action taken to open that one single chakra.
So, it is never a wise decision to open any of the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:50.800,0:14:00.080
chakras in isolation. Our best bet is to open them&nbsp;
all in one inter-related, chronological sequence.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:00.880,0:14:07.840
We cannot effectively empty a fragment of our&nbsp;
mind and hope that it will continue to remain so.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:07.840,0:14:14.640
Corruptions of the mind from its other fragments&nbsp;
would rush to fill in that empty space later if</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:14.640,0:14:23.120
not sooner. How long shall we be able to keep it&nbsp;
protected from its offenders? But if the entire</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:23.120,0:14:31.040
mind goes empty in one inter-related chronological&nbsp;
sequence, it would tend to remain empty forever.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:31.040,0:14:36.080
And it is not an impossible&nbsp;
task to empty the mind that way.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:36.080,0:14:41.440
In fact, that is exactly&nbsp;
what leads to Skeletal Leap!</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Welcome back to the 20th episode of Skeletal Leap: A Living Adventure!</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Today’s episode titled “<strong>Deepest Mind Secrets: Dark Psychology Facts You Need!</strong>” will tell you about physiology vs psychology and brain vs mind.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Where is the seat of mind in the body?</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Have you ever thought about it?</p>





<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Mind is the reviewing faculty of brain. It never views. It only re-views what the brain has already viewed and acted upon. It happens efficiently, provided this reviewing faculty hasn’t negatively affected the spontaneous perception and action taken by the brain.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Why is reviewing required?</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Reviewing is required to give a subjective meaning to the psychedelic perceptions and automatic actions effected by the brain.

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Welcome back to 20th episode of Skeletal Leap: A Living Adventure!</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">In today's episode titled “Deepest Mind Secrets: Dark Psychology Facts You Need!”, I jump into the intriguing comparison of neurology versus psychology, exploring the intricate relationship between the brain and the mind.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Have you ever wondered where the seat of the mind within the body is?&nbsp;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">I come up with a hypothesis that the mind functions as the reviewing faculty of the brain, engaging in a complex interplay of perceptions and actions.&nbsp;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Discover how the mind reviews experiences to construct a subjective narrative, shaping individual identity and free will.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">We also examine the concept of contaminated free will, where fear influences the mind's interpretations, leading to a distortion of certain instincts namely sex, curiosity, interaction and adventure.&nbsp;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Learn how societal norms and the superego suppress these instincts, creating a fragmented mind that struggles with internal conflicts.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Furthermore, I discuss the implications of emotional constructs and how they can overshadow genuine instincts, leading to a life of mere existence rather than joyful living.&nbsp;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">This episode emphasizes the importance of recognizing and nurturing our innate instincts to reclaim our sense of passion and joy.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Join me as I navigate through the complexities of human behavior, exploring how our physical postures can influence mental states and vice versa.&nbsp;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">This episode is a call to embrace the simplicity of skeletal meditations to restore balance and harmony within our mind body system.</p>

Where is the seat of mind in the body?
Have you ever thought about it?</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:07.200,0:00:24.960
Here is a hypothesis.
My name is Laadi Ojas. Welcome</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:24.960,0:00:34.320
to “Skeletal Leap: A Living Adventure”. Skeletal&nbsp;
Leap transforms one’s life into a personal heaven.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:34.320,0:00:39.680
Today’s episode will tell you about&nbsp;
neurology vs psychology respectively</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:39.680,0:00:48.160
addressing brain vs mind or instincts vs&nbsp;
emotions as far as human life is concerned.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:48.160,0:00:51.440
Where is the seat of mind in the body?</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:51.440,0:00:57.360
Have you ever thought about it?
Here is a hypothesis:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:57.360,0:01:03.920
Mind As The Reviewing Faculty of Brain
Mind is the reviewing faculty of brain.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:03.920,0:01:11.680
It never views. It only re-views what the brain&nbsp;
has already viewed and acted upon. It happens</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:11.680,0:01:18.320
efficiently, provided this reviewing faculty&nbsp;
hasn’t negatively affected the spontaneous</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:18.320,0:01:24.000
perception and action taken by the brain.
Why is reviewing required?</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:24.880,0:01:30.960
Reviewing is required to give a subjective meaning&nbsp;
to the psychedelic perceptions and automatic</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:30.960,0:01:37.680
actions effected by the brain. This subjective&nbsp;
meaning imparts life with a sense of individual</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:37.680,0:01:43.040
identity having a free will of its&nbsp;
own. It makes an individual life a</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:43.040,0:01:51.520
uniquely comprehensible story and thus makes it&nbsp;
interesting to this reviewer that the mind is.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:51.520,0:01:59.840
The Contaminated Free Will As Ego
There is a serious caveat here. The reviewer,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:59.840,0:02:06.720
that’s the mind, finds it so interesting that&nbsp;
it holds this comprehension as being the real</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:06.720,0:02:13.920
perception and real action. The mind decides to&nbsp;
exercise its free will which ultimately turns into</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:13.920,0:02:23.040
ego that it then starts identifying itself with.
Even this wouldn’t have been much of a problem,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:23.040,0:02:29.920
had this free will not been contaminated.&nbsp;
Most often, it gets contaminated by an element</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:29.920,0:02:36.640
of fear that stems from an overrated&nbsp;
core of life preservative instincts.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:36.640,0:02:43.760
Life begins with an innate fear of losing itself.
It is this fear that is at the root of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:43.760,0:02:51.680
contaminating this free will, thereby reducing it&nbsp;
to what Richard Dawkins calls the ‘selfish gene’.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:51.680,0:02:55.600
It gets subjectively attached to&nbsp;
its own faulty apprehensions of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:55.600,0:03:02.160
what constitutes a threat to life.
This fear is a reaction to something</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:02.160,0:03:08.880
that is not a real danger and the brain may not&nbsp;
even perceive it as a real threat. It is rather a</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:08.880,0:03:16.800
conceived threat that the contaminated free will&nbsp;
of the reviewer attaches to its comprehension.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:16.800,0:03:22.240
The contaminated free will is not as&nbsp;
intelligent as the spontaneous brain.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:22.240,0:03:28.000
Along with the instinct of self preservation,&nbsp;
the brain also hands a complete list of other</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:28.000,0:03:35.600
instincts over to the reviewer.
Instincts That We Are Born With</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:35.600,0:03:41.200
This is done so that the mind can&nbsp;
review, cognize and comprehend those</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:41.200,0:03:50.160
instincts as the basic tenets of life, like:
Eating | Drinking | Excreting | Curiosity |</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:50.160,0:03:59.040
Movement | Play | Adventure | Interaction |&nbsp;
Love | Grouping | Sex | Reproduction | Parenting</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:59.760,0:04:05.120
All these different instincts need to&nbsp;
be given overall inclusive emphases in</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:05.120,0:04:11.040
an equally exclusive manner. None less, none more!</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:11.040,0:04:17.520
But as we saw, the reviewer gets subjectively&nbsp;
attached to its faulty apprehensions of threat</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:17.520,0:04:26.000
to life. It does so at the cost of ignoring, and&nbsp;
at times, even suppressing a few other instincts.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:26.800,0:04:32.400
The main victims to this fear of the&nbsp;
mind are the instincts of sex, adventure,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:32.400,0:04:38.800
curiosity and interaction. It apprehends&nbsp;
them as challenging self preservation.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:38.800,0:04:47.280
Sex is such a strong instinct as can make one&nbsp;
even ignore one’s safety and security. In fact,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:47.280,0:04:54.400
sex falls under the category of death instincts&nbsp;
as opposed to the instincts of self preservation.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:55.200,0:05:02.240
This categorization of mine is in contrast with&nbsp;
the categorization conceived by Sigmund Freud as</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:02.240,0:05:09.680
life instincts and destructive death drives&nbsp;
(Thanatos), as opposed to death instincts.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:09.680,0:05:16.400
In fact, he had earlier started working along&nbsp;
the idea of death instincts before he moved on</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:16.400,0:05:24.320
to conceptualize death drives or Thanatos.
And at that time, he had categorized</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:24.320,0:05:32.480
sex as one of the prime death instincts.
These were conceived as death instincts since they</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:32.480,0:05:39.280
tended to do away with ego which overemphasized&nbsp;
instincts supporting self-preservation.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:39.280,0:05:47.680
As per this initial concept, mind - as ego -&nbsp;
apprehends these death instincts as capable of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:47.680,0:05:55.200
killing its hegemonic existence. Obviously, it&nbsp;
would never be ready to welcome or even accept</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:55.200,0:06:03.360
them. And even when it does so, it does so&nbsp;
in a very lukewarm and half-hearted way.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:03.360,0:06:10.000
I find this earlier concept of Freud’s&nbsp;
more meaningful than his later concepts.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:10.000,0:06:15.520
Hence I have developed my concepts&nbsp;
along his earlier line of thought.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:15.520,0:06:22.080
Here is a quote from Life and Death&nbsp;
Drive; Freud’s Thanatos and Eros Theory:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:22.080,0:06:29.280
Sigmund Freud’s theory of life and death drives&nbsp;
evolved throughout his life and career. Initially,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:29.280,0:06:36.480
he described a class of drives known as life&nbsp;
instincts that he believed were responsible</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:36.480,0:06:44.720
for much of our behavior. Eventually, however,&nbsp;
Freud came to believe that life instincts alone</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:44.720,0:06:50.400
could not explain all human behavior. With the&nbsp;
publication of his book ‘Beyond the Pleasure</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:50.400,0:06:59.920
Principle‘ in 1920, Freud concluded that all&nbsp;
instincts fall into one of two major classes:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:59.920,0:07:08.320
life drives and death drives—later dubbed&nbsp;
Eros and Thanatos by other psychologists.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:08.320,0:07:14.560
As a result, human culture and&nbsp;
society tag sex as the basic sin,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:14.560,0:07:22.080
acting from that fearful mind’s apprehensions.
The same is true of the passion and joy of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:22.080,0:07:29.760
adventure. Adventure is an instinctual drive&nbsp;
to jump into an experience that is unknown.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:29.760,0:07:37.040
The more the passion, the less one is susceptible&nbsp;
to get tamed. You can tame a bullock but never a</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:37.040,0:07:45.440
bull. Human culture and society, constructed over&nbsp;
the most basic foundations of fear, needed to</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:45.440,0:07:52.960
tame their individuals. If they don’t get tamed,&nbsp;
they may jump into life-threatening adventures</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:52.960,0:08:01.040
out of passion. Adventure and safety are two&nbsp;
diametrically opposite things. In fact, passion</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:01.040,0:08:08.800
and joy are the hallmark of all death instincts,&nbsp;
sex and adventure being the most magnetic among</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:08.800,0:08:17.840
those. That is how and why passion and joy&nbsp;
are closely associated with sex and adventure.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:17.840,0:08:24.960
Curiosity is something that questions culture and&nbsp;
society’s training programs designed to provide</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:24.960,0:08:30.560
their individuals with safety and security,&nbsp;
even at the cost of turning them into cogs of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:30.560,0:08:39.040
ever turning wheels. The human education system&nbsp;
is the worst example of this where students must</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:39.040,0:08:46.960
follow a regimen rather than satiate their&nbsp;
curiosity. Regimen insures what students must</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:46.960,0:08:54.960
know in order to safeguard their future. On the&nbsp;
other hand, curiosity flows like water toward</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:54.960,0:09:04.080
unknown horizons, rewarding one with insights.&nbsp;
That is when one turns truly intelligent. Mind</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:04.080,0:09:11.360
prefers knowledge to intelligence. But&nbsp;
knowledge without intelligence and insight</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:11.360,0:09:18.320
amounts to nothing more than stupidity&nbsp;
and nothing less than insensitivity.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:18.320,0:09:23.120
Interaction is another victim to&nbsp;
the hegemony of self-preservation.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:23.120,0:09:30.240
The more one interacts with strangers or unknown&nbsp;
situations, the more one exposes oneself to the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:30.240,0:09:39.280
risk of getting harmed. This apprehended risk gets&nbsp;
generated out of the fear of the unknown. Hence</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:39.280,0:09:46.720
human culture and society prefer regimented&nbsp;
relationship to spontaneous interaction.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:46.720,0:09:55.680
Relationship is conditioned, with set protocols&nbsp;
to follow, turning it mechanical and dull sooner</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:55.680,0:10:02.160
than later. Interaction is unconditional,&nbsp;
creating its own unique designs every time</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:02.160,0:10:09.920
one has it afresh, turning it aesthetically&nbsp;
much more creative. Relationship is safe,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:09.920,0:10:17.920
interaction is risky. Relationship is swimming&nbsp;
in a pond, interaction is swimming in an ocean.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:18.560,0:10:23.600
Hence, human culture and society are&nbsp;
structured on the foundation of curbing</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:23.600,0:10:32.560
these instincts either overtly or covertly.
This is why I place these four instincts of sex,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:32.560,0:10:40.160
adventure, curiosity and interaction under the&nbsp;
category of death instincts. These are the very</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:40.160,0:10:48.160
instincts that tend to kill ego in the mind. That&nbsp;
is why and how they appear to be death instincts</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:48.160,0:10:55.680
to the mind, in the first place.
Super-ego Comprising Morals</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:55.680,0:11:03.120
When these instincts are suppressed, their energy&nbsp;
gets suppressed as well. Mind has a powerful tool</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:03.120,0:11:10.640
to do so. The super-ego! This super-ego&nbsp;
is a new faculty that the mind generates,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:10.640,0:11:19.360
comprising morals that ought to be respected. If&nbsp;
not, another new entity we call guilt coaxes it.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:19.360,0:11:27.760
Surprisingly, guilt steals its energy from the&nbsp;
energy of fear. The mind, through super-ego,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:27.760,0:11:34.720
has thus created these two entities,&nbsp;
fear and guilt, that are forms of another</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:34.720,0:11:43.600
faculty that the mind generates – emotion.
What happens when energy is suppressed? And,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:43.600,0:11:50.560
not only suppressed but also repressed at times.&nbsp;
Repression means pushing the consciousness of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:50.560,0:11:58.240
its suppression to the unconscious mind so&nbsp;
that it just forgets everything about it.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:58.240,0:12:04.240
But the repressed energetic content of instincts&nbsp;
still keeps knocking on the doors of the conscious</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:04.240,0:12:12.240
mind. And whenever it finds an opportunity,&nbsp;
it pushes them. Soon, it enters consciousness</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:12.240,0:12:19.440
stealthily when the guards sitting at the doors&nbsp;
are snoozing. That is what our dreams are.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:20.160,0:12:26.320
Not only this, even during their exile in&nbsp;
the unconscious, these repressed instincts</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:26.320,0:12:32.800
don’t become fully inactive. They retain their&nbsp;
capacity to affect the decisions taken by the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:32.800,0:12:40.400
unconscious mind against its conscious reasoning.
Now, let’s get back to the question: what happens</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:40.400,0:12:47.920
when energy is suppressed or repressed?
The content and energy of said suppressed</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:47.920,0:12:55.440
and repressed instincts gets downgraded. A few&nbsp;
different morals are constructed to achieve this.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:55.440,0:13:03.040
Piety downgrades the powerful instinct of sex.&nbsp;
Mind understands how powerful and inevitable</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:03.040,0:13:12.320
sex is. Hence it creates another sub-moral of&nbsp;
piety called marriage as a spiritual union.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:12.320,0:13:17.680
It is designed to be a monogamic sexual&nbsp;
relationship between one man and one</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:17.680,0:13:24.640
woman for the rest of their lives. Humans are not&nbsp;
designed to have their quota of sex rationed like</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:24.640,0:13:34.000
this. But under the respectable pressure of piety,&nbsp;
they accept it at the conscious level. However,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:34.000,0:13:40.480
their unconscious mind always keeps attracting&nbsp;
them to others outside their marriage.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:41.040,0:13:46.560
It is not only about getting attracted but&nbsp;
also about having sex with them mentally,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:46.560,0:13:54.000
if not physically…and stealthily. Thus,&nbsp;
we see another example in which the mind</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:54.000,0:14:02.000
has transformed an instinct – sex&nbsp;
– into an emotion – sexual desire.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:02.000,0:14:07.520
The Fragmented Mind
Mind fragments itself in many parts,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:07.520,0:14:13.760
all fighting with one another all day. This&nbsp;
infighting continually tires ‘us’ even when</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:13.760,0:14:20.480
‘we’ haven’t done that much work to justify ‘our’&nbsp;
tiredness. We never get as tired when we enjoy</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:20.480,0:14:29.520
doing something as we do when we don’t enjoy it.&nbsp;
In fact, we almost don’t get tired while enjoying,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:29.520,0:14:35.680
even while doing the toughest of jobs.
The mind constructs quite a few other</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:35.680,0:14:42.560
morals to covertly downgrade the content&nbsp;
and energy of other death instincts as well.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:42.560,0:14:50.160
It does so to curiosity and its questioning&nbsp;
attitude through morals such as obedience,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:50.160,0:14:58.080
faith, reverence, loyalty or devotion in&nbsp;
order to avoid questioning the authority.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:58.800,0:15:04.640
Real Passion Turns to&nbsp;
Distorted Conceptual Emotions</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:04.640,0:15:10.560
Let’s get back to passion and joy that are the&nbsp;
hallmarks of death instincts. What happens to</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:10.560,0:15:20.240
this passion and joy when the instincts turn into&nbsp;
emotions? At worst, passion gets distorted and joy</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:20.240,0:15:28.160
loses its smoothness to the harshness of said&nbsp;
emotions. At best, instinctual joy turns into</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:28.160,0:15:35.520
the ‘idea’ of joy which we call happiness.
Happiness needs to be defined as waiting</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:35.520,0:15:43.280
with hope to experience joy at some point in the&nbsp;
future. When we are actually enjoying something,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:43.280,0:15:49.280
we don’t need to be ‘happy’ as we are simply&nbsp;
enjoying it right then and there. We can</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:49.280,0:15:56.240
experience joy while being sad as well. Like,&nbsp;
our skin will always enjoy the touch of winter</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:56.240,0:16:02.960
sun even if we are grieving.
Ironically, unlike passion,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:02.960,0:16:11.200
emotions always exist as pairs of opposites:
Happiness - Sadness | Bravery - Cowardice |</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:11.200,0:16:19.120
Courage - Timidity | Confidence - Diffidence&nbsp;
| Hope - Despair | Excitement - Boredom |</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:19.120,0:16:30.400
Attachment - Detachment | Anger - Guilt | Pride&nbsp;</p>



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Shame | Anxiety - Depression | Fear - Greed</li>
</ul>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:30.400,0:16:37.360
One might wonder how fear and greed are&nbsp;
opposite emotions. Isn’t it the fear</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:37.360,0:16:44.560
of losing that turns us greedy to hoard,&nbsp;
to insure us against loss? Isn’t seeking</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:44.560,0:16:50.320
immortality, for example, the greedy&nbsp;
antithesis of the fear of losing life?</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:51.120,0:16:56.320
Positive psychology tends to categorize&nbsp;
emotions as positive and negative,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:56.320,0:17:02.720
always siding with the positive ones. But these&nbsp;
are the two sides of the same coin. In fact,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:02.720,0:17:09.440
the negative ones are more basic, born out&nbsp;
of the frustration of passion. Their positive</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:09.440,0:17:17.120
counterparts are just feel-good facades that&nbsp;
we wear so as not to get intimidated by them.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:17.840,0:17:23.440
Let me give another example here. Psychology&nbsp;
tells us to be confident instead of being</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:23.440,0:17:31.360
diffident. I agree that being diffident harms&nbsp;
us. But how does being confident help us? Let’s</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:31.360,0:17:37.840
take a hypothetical example. Suppose you and&nbsp;
I are to arrive at an interview for the same</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:37.840,0:17:45.200
job. And both of us are equally confident. So&nbsp;
our confidence is not going to help us at all,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:45.200,0:17:51.360
simply because one of us is bound to lose.&nbsp;
And even if both of us are diffident,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:51.360,0:17:59.440
one of us is bound to win. So this advice of&nbsp;
being confident is not really a fool-proof one.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:59.440,0:18:03.920
We need to be confident only&nbsp;
because we are basically diffident.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:03.920,0:18:11.280
Isn’t it a better thing to be neither and just be&nbsp;
natural, ready to face what naturally comes to us?</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:12.480,0:18:17.520
That is why all emotions are&nbsp;
futile. They are not natural.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:17.520,0:18:23.040
They are the constructs of ideas&nbsp;
and not the realities behind them.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:23.040,0:18:31.920
Satiating real instincts generates passion and joy&nbsp;
instead of emotions like excitement and happiness.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:31.920,0:18:37.360
Happiness as an emotion plays with&nbsp;
the idea of joy rather than real joy,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:37.360,0:18:45.040
which only passion can generate. Being happy for&nbsp;
the next moment instead of enjoying this very one</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:45.040,0:18:52.480
is like masturbating instead of having real sex.
Everyone always feels like they are missing</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:52.480,0:19:00.400
something in life but no one knows what!
What we all are missing is joy right now,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:00.400,0:19:09.120
which only passion can generate, not any emotions.
Psychology has made the mind an unnaturally</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:09.120,0:19:16.640
complex pattern making it seem much bigger&nbsp;
than what it really is - a reviewer. And thus,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:16.640,0:19:22.400
the mind ends up negatively affecting the&nbsp;
brain’s physiology through its nervous system</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:22.400,0:19:28.320
across the entire body.
Let’s see exactly how.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:28.320,0:19:34.080
How Emotions Affect The Body
The mind, in its evolution along</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:34.080,0:19:40.960
human culture and human society, has fragmented&nbsp;
itself into many parts. These fragmented parts</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:40.960,0:19:46.800
are always in a state of war with one another.&nbsp;
The result is that they keep wasting their</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:46.800,0:19:55.520
energy. As a further result, the organism&nbsp;
is thrown into a state that lacks energy.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:55.520,0:20:02.880
Anatomically, this mind-induced state of low&nbsp;
energy shows up as a habitually unnatural</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:02.880,0:20:13.040
posture of the skeleton, especially at its joints.&nbsp;
Every single one of the skeleton’s 360 joints ends</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:13.040,0:20:22.320
up tucking ‘in’. Gravity plays its own part in&nbsp;
this process by dropping those joints ‘down’.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:22.320,0:20:29.360
Interestingly, in army training throughout the&nbsp;
world, they exacerbate this problem further. They</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:29.360,0:20:36.320
train soldiers in tucking the shoulders ‘out’,&nbsp;
thereby taking the effect of the mind out of the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:36.320,0:20:44.160
picture, while leaving them still drooping down.&nbsp;
This leaves the soldiers aggressively violent</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:44.160,0:20:51.600
rather than passively timid; a connection no&nbsp;
one else seems to have analyzed yet. But it</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:51.600,0:20:55.680
has been serving their purpose of turning&nbsp;
their soldiers ‘brave’ and they are happy</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:55.680,0:21:02.800
with it. This gets further worsened by the&nbsp;
muscles in their vicinity getting rigidified</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:02.800,0:21:09.440
and thus changing their habitual anatomy.&nbsp;
The same follows for the nerves and blood</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:09.440,0:21:16.240
vessels attached to the joints in question.
And this is what gives birth to those infamous</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:16.240,0:21:21.840
closed chakras - or as I call them,&nbsp;
just chakras - all along the length</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:21.840,0:21:29.360
of the spinal cord. If we look at it from a&nbsp;
neurological perspective, it stops the vagus</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:29.360,0:21:35.840
nerve from carrying signals effectively.&nbsp;
They block the dialogue between the gut and</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:35.840,0:21:42.560
the brain much needed to keep the nervous system&nbsp;
functioning properly, materialistically speaking.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:43.440,0:21:50.400
From a vitalistic point of view, this results&nbsp;
in Kundalini being blocked in its flow between</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:50.400,0:21:57.920
the root and the crown chakras via Sushumna.
Maybe the two approaches are ways of looking into</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:57.920,0:22:04.480
the same reality from two different angles!
Time will tell.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:04.480,0:22:10.320
Regardless, the deformed psychology of the mental&nbsp;
structure affects the physiology of the human</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:10.320,0:22:17.280
body negatively. It compromises the capacity of&nbsp;
the tenth cranial nerve to carry signals, i.e.,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:17.280,0:22:24.000
Kundalini flowing smooth, in an uninhibited&nbsp;
manner. The result is a neurophysiologically</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:24.000,0:22:30.480
compromised nervous system of which the&nbsp;
brain is the most central organ. That is</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:30.480,0:22:38.400
how a compromised mind compromises the brain&nbsp;
as well. The brain loses its spontaneity to</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:38.400,0:22:44.960
think in the moment as the mind pushes&nbsp;
it toward past and future thoughts.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:44.960,0:22:48.640
What’s the way out?
Either we change the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:48.640,0:22:54.800
psychology of mind or the physiology of&nbsp;
body to put it back on the right track.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:54.800,0:22:59.040
If the mind can affect the body&nbsp;
negatively, the body can affect the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:59.040,0:23:06.960
mind as well and positively, at that.
How Body Can Affect The Mind</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:06.960,0:23:14.000
Changing the psychology of the mind is an uphill&nbsp;
task, mainly because it is vague. It very easily</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:14.000,0:23:21.040
makes us stray along its functional complexities&nbsp;
without even giving any feedback. Thus, it keeps</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:21.040,0:23:28.800
us guessing blindly if we are on the right track.
The probability of being right is way less than</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:28.800,0:23:34.960
being wrong. It is because there are many&nbsp;
wrong but only one right way and we are</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:34.960,0:23:41.520
trying to hit the bullseye blindfolded.
On the other hand, let’s look at a</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:41.520,0:23:48.240
miraculous physical activity that changes&nbsp;
the psychology of the mind instantaneously.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:48.240,0:23:55.520
Skydiving, apart from being an awesome sport, is&nbsp;
also an awesome physiological meditation. Under</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:55.520,0:24:02.240
conditions of free fall, people tend to stop&nbsp;
breathing. They CAN breathe although they don’t</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:02.240,0:24:09.120
need to. Whatever little oxygen they require is&nbsp;
absorbed by their skin through osmosis in their</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:09.120,0:24:16.560
system. Its only limitation is that it is there&nbsp;
only for the duration of 6-7 minutes it takes</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:16.560,0:24:24.800
to touch the ground. As this intense experience&nbsp;
instantly changes the body’s physiology, it also</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:24.800,0:24:30.640
instantly changes the mind’s psychology.
Here is a firsthand account of a</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:30.640,0:24:35.680
first-time skydiver:
I was OUT…everything</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:35.680,0:24:46.000
mentally ended…over…started…me…perhaps more dead&nbsp;
than alive…perhaps more alive than I will ever</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:47.120,0:24:55.920
be…breathing just as I had been taught…wind…wind&nbsp;
and breath…until wind and breath became</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:55.920,0:25:05.120
indiscernible, became as one…and yes, almost&nbsp;
weightless…it was true! …weightless and so</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:05.120,0:25:15.200
surreal…there was the earth, neither coming&nbsp;
at me, nor me at it, …no up…no down…no me,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:15.200,0:25:23.520
in the ego sense of me, just some thoughtless&nbsp;
consciousness…and yes, it was awesome simply to</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:23.520,0:25:33.440
be…or not. The sky was in my lungs and it never&nbsp;
once occurred to me would the parachute open.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:33.440,0:25:40.160
Sounds like the skydiver is describing an&nbsp;
out-of-body experience instead of a free fall!</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:40.160,0:25:46.160
We may be moved to think it was actually&nbsp;
so if not for the references to wind,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:46.160,0:25:53.200
earth and the parachute. Swiss scientists have&nbsp;
recently discovered something. They sent a very</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:53.200,0:25:59.600
weak current to the back, right part of the&nbsp;
brain. It triggered an out-of-body experience</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:59.600,0:26:06.960
for the patient. This out-of-body experience is&nbsp;
also associated with the sensation of levitation.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:06.960,0:26:13.440
They found that it could be recreated at will&nbsp;
whenever a particular part of the brain was</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:13.440,0:26:20.880
stimulated by an electric current. Scientists&nbsp;
also say that a human body has a naturally weak</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:20.880,0:26:28.720
electric field. Its disruption causes disease.&nbsp;
Therefore, drugs are being designed to restore</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:28.720,0:26:35.440
this weak field. But the exact nature of&nbsp;
this field is not yet fully understood.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:35.440,0:26:41.280
In the process of changing its psychology,&nbsp;
the mind needs to empty itself of all its</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:41.280,0:26:48.480
beliefs, including morals and emotions.
It needs to be kept limited to reviewing</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:48.480,0:26:55.120
and comprehending what the brain supplies&nbsp;
it with, i.e., instincts. In other words,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:55.120,0:27:03.360
it needs to turn truly agnostic. It is not easy.&nbsp;
It scares the mind to death, quite literally.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:03.920,0:27:11.760
The mind really considers it as its death.&nbsp;
That is why it stealthily keeps turning all</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:11.760,0:27:21.280
meditations into new visualizations, imaginations&nbsp;
and beliefs instead of the old ones. It sheds old</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:21.280,0:27:29.840
beliefs and embraces new ones like old wine in a&nbsp;
new bottle. And it does so just in order not to</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:29.840,0:27:36.640
get caught for trying to keep its death away.
That is why and how mental and spiritual</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:36.640,0:27:43.600
meditations, at times, get reduced&nbsp;
to performing pious rituals alone.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:43.600,0:27:50.480
Skeletal Meditations Are Meditations of&nbsp;
Body As Opposed to Meditations of Mind</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:50.480,0:27:58.960
The ways of the body are concrete, however subtle&nbsp;
they may be. We can always put a finger on them,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:58.960,0:28:06.320
sometimes quite literally, guiding them&nbsp;
back on the track, as and when required.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:06.320,0:28:10.080
We don’t need to go for&nbsp;
rituals of limited durations.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:10.080,0:28:16.560
We need to learn and be in the right&nbsp;
meditative state 24 x 7 x 365. And we</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:16.560,0:28:21.760
need to do so in order to make it the&nbsp;
first nature of our mind-body system.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:22.560,0:28:28.480
It is much easier to do it with the body than&nbsp;
the mind. This way, every single moment can</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:28.480,0:28:35.040
be the moment of meditation without the need&nbsp;
to celebrate it as some kind of achievement.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:35.040,0:28:41.520
Skeletal meditations work physiologically, aiming&nbsp;
to turn the anatomy and physiology of the body</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:41.520,0:28:48.720
and the brain back to their natural functions.&nbsp;
They’re meant to stay that way consciously 24 x 7</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:48.720,0:28:56.320
x 365 until they become one’s first nature.
This can only happen when the mind has shed</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:56.320,0:29:02.160
all the psychological myths it had been living&nbsp;
with all through one’s life. It needs to accept</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:02.160,0:29:10.400
the brain as its guide in its only role as&nbsp;
reviewer and comprehender of its perceptions.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:10.400,0:29:17.440
Being tangible, skeletal meditations are much&nbsp;
faster and simpler than mental or spiritual</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:17.440,0:29:24.560
meditations. We just need to understand how&nbsp;
to rightly posture our skeletal joints and</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:24.560,0:29:30.480
then make it our first nature.
Once this is successfully done,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:30.480,0:29:35.360
Skeletal Leap is in place.
We are on the verge of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:35.360,0:29:43.120
revolutionizing our bipedal evolution, taking&nbsp;
it to its culmination via Skeletal Leap.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:43.120,0:29:50.160
Let’s do it for ourselves today and for&nbsp;
the sake of our next generations tomorrow.</p>

Leap: A Living Adventure! In the next episode,</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Welcome back to the 20th episode of Skeletal Leap: A Living Adventure!</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Today’s episode titled “<strong>Deepest Mind Secrets: Dark Psychology Facts You Need!</strong>” will tell you about physiology vs psychology and brain vs mind.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Where is the seat of mind in the body?</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Have you ever thought about it?</p>





<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Mind is the reviewing faculty of brain. It never views. It only re-views what the brain has already viewed and acted upon. It happens efficiently, provided this reviewing faculty hasn’t negatively affected the spontaneous perception and action taken by the brain.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Why is reviewing required?</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Reviewing is required to give a subjective meaning to the psychedelic perceptions and automatic actions effected by the brain. This subjective meaning imparts life with a sense of individual identity having a free will19 of its own. It makes an individual life a uniquely comprehensible story and thus makes it interesting to this reviewer that the mind is.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">SKELETAL LEAP, the mind body connection for mind and body healing, is a giant leap that our <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skeleton" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">skeleton</a> can take through the way it postures its joints.</p>



<p class="p1 wp-block-paragraph">I had stumbled upon this miracle many years ago, coincidentally</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Welcome back to 20th episode of Skeletal Leap: A Living Adventure!</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">In today's episode titled “Deepest Mind Secrets: Dark Psychology Facts You Need!”, I jump into the intriguing comparison of neurology versus psychology, exploring the intricate relationship between the brain and the mind.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Have you ever wondered where the seat of the mind within the body is?&nbsp;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">I come up with a hypothesis that the mind functions as the reviewing faculty of the brain, engaging in a complex interplay of perceptions and actions.&nbsp;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Discover how the mind reviews experiences to construct a subjective narrative, shaping individual identity and free will.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">We also examine the concept of contaminated free will, where fear influences the mind's interpretations, leading to a distortion of certain instincts namely sex, curiosity, interaction and adventure.&nbsp;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Learn how societal norms and the superego suppress these instincts, creating a fragmented mind that struggles with internal conflicts.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Furthermore, I discuss the implications of emotional constructs and how they can overshadow genuine instincts, leading to a life of mere existence rather than joyful living.&nbsp;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">This episode emphasizes the importance of recognizing and nurturing our innate instincts to reclaim our sense of passion and joy.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Join me as I navigate through the complexities of human behavior, exploring how our physical postures can influence mental states and vice versa.&nbsp;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">This episode is a call to embrace the simplicity of skeletal meditations to restore balance and harmony within our mind body system.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:57.360,0:01:03.920
Mind As The Reviewing Faculty of Brain
Mind is the reviewing faculty of brain.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:03.920,0:01:11.680
It never views. It only re-views what the brain&nbsp;
has already viewed and acted upon. It happens</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:11.680,0:01:18.320
efficiently, provided this reviewing faculty&nbsp;
hasn’t negatively affected the spontaneous</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:18.320,0:01:24.000
perception and action taken by the brain.
Why is reviewing required?</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:24.880,0:01:30.960
Reviewing is required to give a subjective meaning&nbsp;
to the psychedelic perceptions and automatic</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:30.960,0:01:37.680
actions effected by the brain. This subjective&nbsp;
meaning imparts life with a sense of individual</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:37.680,0:01:43.040
identity having a free will of its&nbsp;
own. It makes an individual life a</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:43.040,0:01:51.520
uniquely comprehensible story and thus makes it&nbsp;
interesting to this reviewer that the mind is.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:51.520,0:01:59.840
The Contaminated Free Will As Ego
There is a serious caveat here. The reviewer,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:59.840,0:02:06.720
that’s the mind, finds it so interesting that&nbsp;
it holds this comprehension as being the real</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:06.720,0:02:13.920
perception and real action. The mind decides to&nbsp;
exercise its free will which ultimately turns into</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:13.920,0:02:23.040
ego that it then starts identifying itself with.
Even this wouldn’t have been much of a problem,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:23.040,0:02:29.920
had this free will not been contaminated.&nbsp;
Most often, it gets contaminated by an element</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:29.920,0:02:36.640
of fear that stems from an overrated&nbsp;
core of life preservative instincts.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:36.640,0:02:43.760
Life begins with an innate fear of losing itself.
It is this fear that is at the root of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:43.760,0:02:51.680
contaminating this free will, thereby reducing it&nbsp;
to what Richard Dawkins calls the ‘selfish gene’.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:51.680,0:02:55.600
It gets subjectively attached to&nbsp;
its own faulty apprehensions of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:55.600,0:03:02.160
what constitutes a threat to life.
This fear is a reaction to something</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:02.160,0:03:08.880
that is not a real danger and the brain may not&nbsp;
even perceive it as a real threat. It is rather a</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:08.880,0:03:16.800
conceived threat that the contaminated free will&nbsp;
of the reviewer attaches to its comprehension.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:16.800,0:03:22.240
The contaminated free will is not as&nbsp;
intelligent as the spontaneous brain.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:22.240,0:03:28.000
Along with the instinct of self preservation,&nbsp;
the brain also hands a complete list of other</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:28.000,0:03:35.600
instincts over to the reviewer.
Instincts That We Are Born With</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:35.600,0:03:41.200
This is done so that the mind can&nbsp;
review, cognize and comprehend those</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:41.200,0:03:50.160
instincts as the basic tenets of life, like:
Eating | Drinking | Excreting | Curiosity |</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:50.160,0:03:59.040
Movement | Play | Adventure | Interaction |&nbsp;
Love | Grouping | Sex | Reproduction | Parenting</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:59.760,0:04:05.120
All these different instincts need to&nbsp;
be given overall inclusive emphases in</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:05.120,0:04:11.040
an equally exclusive manner. None less, none more!</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:11.040,0:04:17.520
But as we saw, the reviewer gets subjectively&nbsp;
attached to its faulty apprehensions of threat</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:17.520,0:04:26.000
to life. It does so at the cost of ignoring, and&nbsp;
at times, even suppressing a few other instincts.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:26.800,0:04:32.400
The main victims to this fear of the&nbsp;
mind are the instincts of sex, adventure,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:32.400,0:04:38.800
curiosity and interaction. It apprehends&nbsp;
them as challenging self preservation.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:38.800,0:04:47.280
Sex is such a strong instinct as can make one&nbsp;
even ignore one’s safety and security. In fact,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:47.280,0:04:54.400
sex falls under the category of death instincts&nbsp;
as opposed to the instincts of self preservation.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:55.200,0:05:02.240
This categorization of mine is in contrast with&nbsp;
the categorization conceived by Sigmund Freud as</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:02.240,0:05:09.680
life instincts and destructive death drives&nbsp;
(Thanatos), as opposed to death instincts.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:09.680,0:05:16.400
In fact, he had earlier started working along&nbsp;
the idea of death instincts before he moved on</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:16.400,0:05:24.320
to conceptualize death drives or Thanatos.
And at that time, he had categorized</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:24.320,0:05:32.480
sex as one of the prime death instincts.
These were conceived as death instincts since they</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:32.480,0:05:39.280
tended to do away with ego which overemphasized&nbsp;
instincts supporting self-preservation.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:39.280,0:05:47.680
As per this initial concept, mind - as ego -&nbsp;
apprehends these death instincts as capable of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:47.680,0:05:55.200
killing its hegemonic existence. Obviously, it&nbsp;
would never be ready to welcome or even accept</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:55.200,0:06:03.360
them. And even when it does so, it does so&nbsp;
in a very lukewarm and half-hearted way.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:03.360,0:06:10.000
I find this earlier concept of Freud’s&nbsp;
more meaningful than his later concepts.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:10.000,0:06:15.520
Hence I have developed my concepts&nbsp;
along his earlier line of thought.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:15.520,0:06:22.080
Here is a quote from Life and Death&nbsp;
Drive; Freud’s Thanatos and Eros Theory:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:22.080,0:06:29.280
Sigmund Freud’s theory of life and death drives&nbsp;
evolved throughout his life and career. Initially,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:29.280,0:06:36.480
he described a class of drives known as life&nbsp;
instincts that he believed were responsible</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:36.480,0:06:44.720
for much of our behavior. Eventually, however,&nbsp;
Freud came to believe that life instincts alone</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:44.720,0:06:50.400
could not explain all human behavior. With the&nbsp;
publication of his book ‘Beyond the Pleasure</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:50.400,0:06:59.920
Principle‘ in 1920, Freud concluded that all&nbsp;
instincts fall into one of two major classes:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:59.920,0:07:08.320
life drives and death drives—later dubbed&nbsp;
Eros and Thanatos by other psychologists.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:08.320,0:07:14.560
As a result, human culture and&nbsp;
society tag sex as the basic sin,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:14.560,0:07:22.080
acting from that fearful mind’s apprehensions.
The same is true of the passion and joy of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:22.080,0:07:29.760
adventure. Adventure is an instinctual drive&nbsp;
to jump into an experience that is unknown.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:29.760,0:07:37.040
The more the passion, the less one is susceptible&nbsp;
to get tamed. You can tame a bullock but never a</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:37.040,0:07:45.440
bull. Human culture and society, constructed over&nbsp;
the most basic foundations of fear, needed to</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:45.440,0:07:52.960
tame their individuals. If they don’t get tamed,&nbsp;
they may jump into life-threatening adventures</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:52.960,0:08:01.040
out of passion. Adventure and safety are two&nbsp;
diametrically opposite things. In fact, passion</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:01.040,0:08:08.800
and joy are the hallmark of all death instincts,&nbsp;
sex and adventure being the most magnetic among</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:08.800,0:08:17.840
those. That is how and why passion and joy&nbsp;
are closely associated with sex and adventure.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:17.840,0:08:24.960
Curiosity is something that questions culture and&nbsp;
society’s training programs designed to provide</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:24.960,0:08:30.560
their individuals with safety and security,&nbsp;
even at the cost of turning them into cogs of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:30.560,0:08:39.040
ever turning wheels. The human education system&nbsp;
is the worst example of this where students must</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:39.040,0:08:46.960
follow a regimen rather than satiate their&nbsp;
curiosity. Regimen insures what students must</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:46.960,0:08:54.960
know in order to safeguard their future. On the&nbsp;
other hand, curiosity flows like water toward</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:54.960,0:09:04.080
unknown horizons, rewarding one with insights.&nbsp;
That is when one turns truly intelligent. Mind</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:04.080,0:09:11.360
prefers knowledge to intelligence. But&nbsp;
knowledge without intelligence and insight</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:11.360,0:09:18.320
amounts to nothing more than stupidity&nbsp;
and nothing less than insensitivity.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:18.320,0:09:23.120
Interaction is another victim to&nbsp;
the hegemony of self-preservation.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:23.120,0:09:30.240
The more one interacts with strangers or unknown&nbsp;
situations, the more one exposes oneself to the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:30.240,0:09:39.280
risk of getting harmed. This apprehended risk gets&nbsp;
generated out of the fear of the unknown. Hence</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:39.280,0:09:46.720
human culture and society prefer regimented&nbsp;
relationship to spontaneous interaction.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:46.720,0:09:55.680
Relationship is conditioned, with set protocols&nbsp;
to follow, turning it mechanical and dull sooner</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:55.680,0:10:02.160
than later. Interaction is unconditional,&nbsp;
creating its own unique designs every time</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:02.160,0:10:09.920
one has it afresh, turning it aesthetically&nbsp;
much more creative. Relationship is safe,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:09.920,0:10:17.920
interaction is risky. Relationship is swimming&nbsp;
in a pond, interaction is swimming in an ocean.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:18.560,0:10:23.600
Hence, human culture and society are&nbsp;
structured on the foundation of curbing</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:23.600,0:10:32.560
these instincts either overtly or covertly.
This is why I place these four instincts of sex,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:32.560,0:10:40.160
adventure, curiosity and interaction under the&nbsp;
category of death instincts. These are the very</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:40.160,0:10:48.160
instincts that tend to kill ego in the mind. That&nbsp;
is why and how they appear to be death instincts</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:48.160,0:10:55.680
to the mind, in the first place.
Super-ego Comprising Morals</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:55.680,0:11:03.120
When these instincts are suppressed, their energy&nbsp;
gets suppressed as well. Mind has a powerful tool</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:03.120,0:11:10.640
to do so. The super-ego! This super-ego&nbsp;
is a new faculty that the mind generates,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:10.640,0:11:19.360
comprising morals that ought to be respected. If&nbsp;
not, another new entity we call guilt coaxes it.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:19.360,0:11:27.760
Surprisingly, guilt steals its energy from the&nbsp;
energy of fear. The mind, through super-ego,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:27.760,0:11:34.720
has thus created these two entities,&nbsp;
fear and guilt, that are forms of another</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:34.720,0:11:43.600
faculty that the mind generates – emotion.
What happens when energy is suppressed? And,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:43.600,0:11:50.560
not only suppressed but also repressed at times.&nbsp;
Repression means pushing the consciousness of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:50.560,0:11:58.240
its suppression to the unconscious mind so&nbsp;
that it just forgets everything about it.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:58.240,0:12:04.240
But the repressed energetic content of instincts&nbsp;
still keeps knocking on the doors of the conscious</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:04.240,0:12:12.240
mind. And whenever it finds an opportunity,&nbsp;
it pushes them. Soon, it enters consciousness</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:12.240,0:12:19.440
stealthily when the guards sitting at the doors&nbsp;
are snoozing. That is what our dreams are.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:20.160,0:12:26.320
Not only this, even during their exile in&nbsp;
the unconscious, these repressed instincts</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:26.320,0:12:32.800
don’t become fully inactive. They retain their&nbsp;
capacity to affect the decisions taken by the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:32.800,0:12:40.400
unconscious mind against its conscious reasoning.
Now, let’s get back to the question: what happens</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:40.400,0:12:47.920
when energy is suppressed or repressed?
The content and energy of said suppressed</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:47.920,0:12:55.440
and repressed instincts gets downgraded. A few&nbsp;
different morals are constructed to achieve this.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:55.440,0:13:03.040
Piety downgrades the powerful instinct of sex.&nbsp;
Mind understands how powerful and inevitable</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:03.040,0:13:12.320
sex is. Hence it creates another sub-moral of&nbsp;
piety called marriage as a spiritual union.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:12.320,0:13:17.680
It is designed to be a monogamic sexual&nbsp;
relationship between one man and one</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:17.680,0:13:24.640
woman for the rest of their lives. Humans are not&nbsp;
designed to have their quota of sex rationed like</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:24.640,0:13:34.000
this. But under the respectable pressure of piety,&nbsp;
they accept it at the conscious level. However,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:34.000,0:13:40.480
their unconscious mind always keeps attracting&nbsp;
them to others outside their marriage.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:41.040,0:13:46.560
It is not only about getting attracted but&nbsp;
also about having sex with them mentally,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:46.560,0:13:54.000
if not physically…and stealthily. Thus,&nbsp;
we see another example in which the mind</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:54.000,0:14:02.000
has transformed an instinct – sex&nbsp;
– into an emotion – sexual desire.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:02.000,0:14:07.520
The Fragmented Mind
Mind fragments itself in many parts,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:07.520,0:14:13.760
all fighting with one another all day. This&nbsp;
infighting continually tires ‘us’ even when</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:13.760,0:14:20.480
‘we’ haven’t done that much work to justify ‘our’&nbsp;
tiredness. We never get as tired when we enjoy</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:20.480,0:14:29.520
doing something as we do when we don’t enjoy it.&nbsp;
In fact, we almost don’t get tired while enjoying,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:29.520,0:14:35.680
even while doing the toughest of jobs.
The mind constructs quite a few other</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:35.680,0:14:42.560
morals to covertly downgrade the content&nbsp;
and energy of other death instincts as well.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:42.560,0:14:50.160
It does so to curiosity and its questioning&nbsp;
attitude through morals such as obedience,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:50.160,0:14:58.080
faith, reverence, loyalty or devotion in&nbsp;
order to avoid questioning the authority.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:58.800,0:15:04.640
Real Passion Turns to&nbsp;
Distorted Conceptual Emotions</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:04.640,0:15:10.560
Let’s get back to passion and joy that are the&nbsp;
hallmarks of death instincts. What happens to</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:10.560,0:15:20.240
this passion and joy when the instincts turn into&nbsp;
emotions? At worst, passion gets distorted and joy</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:20.240,0:15:28.160
loses its smoothness to the harshness of said&nbsp;
emotions. At best, instinctual joy turns into</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:28.160,0:15:35.520
the ‘idea’ of joy which we call happiness.
Happiness needs to be defined as waiting</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:35.520,0:15:43.280
with hope to experience joy at some point in the&nbsp;
future. When we are actually enjoying something,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:43.280,0:15:49.280
we don’t need to be ‘happy’ as we are simply&nbsp;
enjoying it right then and there. We can</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:49.280,0:15:56.240
experience joy while being sad as well. Like,&nbsp;
our skin will always enjoy the touch of winter</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:56.240,0:16:02.960
sun even if we are grieving.
Ironically, unlike passion,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:02.960,0:16:11.200
emotions always exist as pairs of opposites:
Happiness - Sadness | Bravery - Cowardice |</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:11.200,0:16:19.120
Courage - Timidity | Confidence - Diffidence&nbsp;
| Hope - Despair | Excitement - Boredom |</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:19.120,0:16:30.400
Attachment - Detachment | Anger - Guilt | Pride&nbsp;</p>



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Shame | Anxiety - Depression | Fear - Greed</li>
</ul>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:30.400,0:16:37.360
One might wonder how fear and greed are&nbsp;
opposite emotions. Isn’t it the fear</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:37.360,0:16:44.560
of losing that turns us greedy to hoard,&nbsp;
to insure us against loss? Isn’t seeking</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:44.560,0:16:50.320
immortality, for example, the greedy&nbsp;
antithesis of the fear of losing life?</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:51.120,0:16:56.320
Positive psychology tends to categorize&nbsp;
emotions as positive and negative,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:56.320,0:17:02.720
always siding with the positive ones. But these&nbsp;
are the two sides of the same coin. In fact,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:02.720,0:17:09.440
the negative ones are more basic, born out&nbsp;
of the frustration of passion. Their positive</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:09.440,0:17:17.120
counterparts are just feel-good facades that&nbsp;
we wear so as not to get intimidated by them.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:17.840,0:17:23.440
Let me give another example here. Psychology&nbsp;
tells us to be confident instead of being</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:23.440,0:17:31.360
diffident. I agree that being diffident harms&nbsp;
us. But how does being confident help us? Let’s</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:31.360,0:17:37.840
take a hypothetical example. Suppose you and&nbsp;
I are to arrive at an interview for the same</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:37.840,0:17:45.200
job. And both of us are equally confident. So&nbsp;
our confidence is not going to help us at all,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:45.200,0:17:51.360
simply because one of us is bound to lose.&nbsp;
And even if both of us are diffident,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:51.360,0:17:59.440
one of us is bound to win. So this advice of&nbsp;
being confident is not really a fool-proof one.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:59.440,0:18:03.920
We need to be confident only&nbsp;
because we are basically diffident.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:03.920,0:18:11.280
Isn’t it a better thing to be neither and just be&nbsp;
natural, ready to face what naturally comes to us?</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:12.480,0:18:17.520
That is why all emotions are&nbsp;
futile. They are not natural.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:17.520,0:18:23.040
They are the constructs of ideas&nbsp;
and not the realities behind them.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:23.040,0:18:31.920
Satiating real instincts generates passion and joy&nbsp;
instead of emotions like excitement and happiness.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:31.920,0:18:37.360
Happiness as an emotion plays with&nbsp;
the idea of joy rather than real joy,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:37.360,0:18:45.040
which only passion can generate. Being happy for&nbsp;
the next moment instead of enjoying this very one</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:45.040,0:18:52.480
is like masturbating instead of having real sex.
Everyone always feels like they are missing</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:52.480,0:19:00.400
something in life but no one knows what!
What we all are missing is joy right now,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:00.400,0:19:09.120
which only passion can generate, not any emotions.
Psychology has made the mind an unnaturally</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:09.120,0:19:16.640
complex pattern making it seem much bigger&nbsp;
than what it really is - a reviewer. And thus,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:16.640,0:19:22.400
the mind ends up negatively affecting the&nbsp;
brain’s physiology through its nervous system</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:22.400,0:19:28.320
across the entire body.
Let’s see exactly how.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:28.320,0:19:34.080
How Emotions Affect The Body
The mind, in its evolution along</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:34.080,0:19:40.960
human culture and human society, has fragmented&nbsp;
itself into many parts. These fragmented parts</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:40.960,0:19:46.800
are always in a state of war with one another.&nbsp;
The result is that they keep wasting their</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:46.800,0:19:55.520
energy. As a further result, the organism&nbsp;
is thrown into a state that lacks energy.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:55.520,0:20:02.880
Anatomically, this mind-induced state of low&nbsp;
energy shows up as a habitually unnatural</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:02.880,0:20:13.040
posture of the skeleton, especially at its joints.&nbsp;
Every single one of the skeleton’s 360 joints ends</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:13.040,0:20:22.320
up tucking ‘in’. Gravity plays its own part in&nbsp;
this process by dropping those joints ‘down’.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:22.320,0:20:29.360
Interestingly, in army training throughout the&nbsp;
world, they exacerbate this problem further. They</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:29.360,0:20:36.320
train soldiers in tucking the shoulders ‘out’,&nbsp;
thereby taking the effect of the mind out of the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:36.320,0:20:44.160
picture, while leaving them still drooping down.&nbsp;
This leaves the soldiers aggressively violent</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:44.160,0:20:51.600
rather than passively timid; a connection no&nbsp;
one else seems to have analyzed yet. But it</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:51.600,0:20:55.680
has been serving their purpose of turning&nbsp;
their soldiers ‘brave’ and they are happy</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:55.680,0:21:02.800
with it. This gets further worsened by the&nbsp;
muscles in their vicinity getting rigidified</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:02.800,0:21:09.440
and thus changing their habitual anatomy.&nbsp;
The same follows for the nerves and blood</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:09.440,0:21:16.240
vessels attached to the joints in question.
And this is what gives birth to those infamous</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:16.240,0:21:21.840
closed chakras - or as I call them,&nbsp;
just chakras - all along the length</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:21.840,0:21:29.360
of the spinal cord. If we look at it from a&nbsp;
neurological perspective, it stops the vagus</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:29.360,0:21:35.840
nerve from carrying signals effectively.&nbsp;
They block the dialogue between the gut and</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:35.840,0:21:42.560
the brain much needed to keep the nervous system&nbsp;
functioning properly, materialistically speaking.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:43.440,0:21:50.400
From a vitalistic point of view, this results&nbsp;
in Kundalini being blocked in its flow between</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:50.400,0:21:57.920
the root and the crown chakras via Sushumna.
Maybe the two approaches are ways of looking into</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:57.920,0:22:04.480
the same reality from two different angles!
Time will tell.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:04.480,0:22:10.320
Regardless, the deformed psychology of the mental&nbsp;
structure affects the physiology of the human</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:10.320,0:22:17.280
body negatively. It compromises the capacity of&nbsp;
the tenth cranial nerve to carry signals, i.e.,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:17.280,0:22:24.000
Kundalini flowing smooth, in an uninhibited&nbsp;
manner. The result is a neurophysiologically</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:24.000,0:22:30.480
compromised nervous system of which the&nbsp;
brain is the most central organ. That is</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:30.480,0:22:38.400
how a compromised mind compromises the brain&nbsp;
as well. The brain loses its spontaneity to</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:38.400,0:22:44.960
think in the moment as the mind pushes&nbsp;
it toward past and future thoughts.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:44.960,0:22:48.640
What’s the way out?
Either we change the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:48.640,0:22:54.800
psychology of mind or the physiology of&nbsp;
body to put it back on the right track.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:54.800,0:22:59.040
If the mind can affect the body&nbsp;
negatively, the body can affect the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:59.040,0:23:06.960
mind as well and positively, at that.
How Body Can Affect The Mind</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:06.960,0:23:14.000
Changing the psychology of the mind is an uphill&nbsp;
task, mainly because it is vague. It very easily</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:14.000,0:23:21.040
makes us stray along its functional complexities&nbsp;
without even giving any feedback. Thus, it keeps</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:21.040,0:23:28.800
us guessing blindly if we are on the right track.
The probability of being right is way less than</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:28.800,0:23:34.960
being wrong. It is because there are many&nbsp;
wrong but only one right way and we are</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:34.960,0:23:41.520
trying to hit the bullseye blindfolded.
On the other hand, let’s look at a</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:41.520,0:23:48.240
miraculous physical activity that changes&nbsp;
the psychology of the mind instantaneously.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:48.240,0:23:55.520
Skydiving, apart from being an awesome sport, is&nbsp;
also an awesome physiological meditation. Under</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:55.520,0:24:02.240
conditions of free fall, people tend to stop&nbsp;
breathing. They CAN breathe although they don’t</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:02.240,0:24:09.120
need to. Whatever little oxygen they require is&nbsp;
absorbed by their skin through osmosis in their</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:09.120,0:24:16.560
system. Its only limitation is that it is there&nbsp;
only for the duration of 6-7 minutes it takes</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:16.560,0:24:24.800
to touch the ground. As this intense experience&nbsp;
instantly changes the body’s physiology, it also</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:24.800,0:24:30.640
instantly changes the mind’s psychology.
Here is a firsthand account of a</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:30.640,0:24:35.680
first-time skydiver:
I was OUT…everything</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:35.680,0:24:46.000
mentally ended…over…started…me…perhaps more dead&nbsp;
than alive…perhaps more alive than I will ever</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:47.120,0:24:55.920
be…breathing just as I had been taught…wind…wind&nbsp;
and breath…until wind and breath became</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:55.920,0:25:05.120
indiscernible, became as one…and yes, almost&nbsp;
weightless…it was true! …weightless and so</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:05.120,0:25:15.200
surreal…there was the earth, neither coming&nbsp;
at me, nor me at it, …no up…no down…no me,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:15.200,0:25:23.520
in the ego sense of me, just some thoughtless&nbsp;
consciousness…and yes, it was awesome simply to</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:23.520,0:25:33.440
be…or not. The sky was in my lungs and it never&nbsp;
once occurred to me would the parachute open.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:33.440,0:25:40.160
Sounds like the skydiver is describing an&nbsp;
out-of-body experience instead of a free fall!</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:40.160,0:25:46.160
We may be moved to think it was actually&nbsp;
so if not for the references to wind,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:46.160,0:25:53.200
earth and the parachute. Swiss scientists have&nbsp;
recently discovered something. They sent a very</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:53.200,0:25:59.600
weak current to the back, right part of the&nbsp;
brain. It triggered an out-of-body experience</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:59.600,0:26:06.960
for the patient. This out-of-body experience is&nbsp;
also associated with the sensation of levitation.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:06.960,0:26:13.440
They found that it could be recreated at will&nbsp;
whenever a particular part of the brain was</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:13.440,0:26:20.880
stimulated by an electric current. Scientists&nbsp;
also say that a human body has a naturally weak</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:20.880,0:26:28.720
electric field. Its disruption causes disease.&nbsp;
Therefore, drugs are being designed to restore</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:28.720,0:26:35.440
this weak field. But the exact nature of&nbsp;
this field is not yet fully understood.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:35.440,0:26:41.280
In the process of changing its psychology,&nbsp;
the mind needs to empty itself of all its</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:41.280,0:26:48.480
beliefs, including morals and emotions.
It needs to be kept limited to reviewing</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:48.480,0:26:55.120
and comprehending what the brain supplies&nbsp;
it with, i.e., instincts. In other words,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:55.120,0:27:03.360
it needs to turn truly agnostic. It is not easy.&nbsp;
It scares the mind to death, quite literally.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:03.920,0:27:11.760
The mind really considers it as its death.&nbsp;
That is why it stealthily keeps turning all</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:11.760,0:27:21.280
meditations into new visualizations, imaginations&nbsp;
and beliefs instead of the old ones. It sheds old</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:21.280,0:27:29.840
beliefs and embraces new ones like old wine in a&nbsp;
new bottle. And it does so just in order not to</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:29.840,0:27:36.640
get caught for trying to keep its death away.
That is why and how mental and spiritual</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:36.640,0:27:43.600
meditations, at times, get reduced&nbsp;
to performing pious rituals alone.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:43.600,0:27:50.480
Skeletal Meditations Are Meditations of&nbsp;
Body As Opposed to Meditations of Mind</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:50.480,0:27:58.960
The ways of the body are concrete, however subtle&nbsp;
they may be. We can always put a finger on them,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:58.960,0:28:06.320
sometimes quite literally, guiding them&nbsp;
back on the track, as and when required.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:06.320,0:28:10.080
We don’t need to go for&nbsp;
rituals of limited durations.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:10.080,0:28:16.560
We need to learn and be in the right&nbsp;
meditative state 24 x 7 x 365. And we</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:16.560,0:28:21.760
need to do so in order to make it the&nbsp;
first nature of our mind-body system.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:22.560,0:28:28.480
It is much easier to do it with the body than&nbsp;
the mind. This way, every single moment can</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:28.480,0:28:35.040
be the moment of meditation without the need&nbsp;
to celebrate it as some kind of achievement.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:35.040,0:28:41.520
Skeletal meditations work physiologically, aiming&nbsp;
to turn the anatomy and physiology of the body</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:41.520,0:28:48.720
and the brain back to their natural functions.&nbsp;
They’re meant to stay that way consciously 24 x 7</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:48.720,0:28:56.320
x 365 until they become one’s first nature.
This can only happen when the mind has shed</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:56.320,0:29:02.160
all the psychological myths it had been living&nbsp;
with all through one’s life. It needs to accept</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:02.160,0:29:10.400
the brain as its guide in its only role as&nbsp;
reviewer and comprehender of its perceptions.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:10.400,0:29:17.440
Being tangible, skeletal meditations are much&nbsp;
faster and simpler than mental or spiritual</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:17.440,0:29:24.560
meditations. We just need to understand how&nbsp;
to rightly posture our skeletal joints and</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:24.560,0:29:30.480
then make it our first nature.
Once this is successfully done,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:30.480,0:29:35.360
Skeletal Leap is in place.
We are on the verge of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:35.360,0:29:43.120
revolutionizing our bipedal evolution, taking&nbsp;
it to its culmination via Skeletal Leap.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:43.120,0:29:50.160
Let’s do it for ourselves today and for&nbsp;
the sake of our next generations tomorrow.</p>

Welcome back to the 20th episode of Skeletal Leap: A Living Adventure!



Today’s episode titled “Deepest Mind Secrets: Dark Psychology Facts You Need!” will tell you about physiology vs psychology and brain vs mind.



Where is the seat of mind in the body?



Have you ever thought about it?





Mind is the reviewing faculty of brain. It never views. It only re-views what the brain has already viewed and acted upon. It happens efficiently, provided this reviewing faculty hasn’t negatively affected the spontaneous perception and action taken by the brain.



Why is reviewing required?



Reviewing is required to give a subjective meaning to the psychedelic perceptions and automatic actions effected by the brain. This subjective meaning imparts life with a sense of individual identity having a free will19 of its own. It makes an individual life a uniquely comprehensible story and thus makes it interesting to this reviewer that the mind is.



SKELETAL LEAP, the mind body connection for mind and body healing, is a giant leap that our skeleton can take through the way it postures its joints.



I had stumbled upon this miracle many years ago, coincidentally







Deepest Mind Secrets: Dark Psychology Facts You Need! - Show Notes





Welcome back to 20th episode of Skeletal Leap: A Living Adventure!



In today's episode titled “Deepest Mind Secrets: Dark Psychology Facts You Need!”, I jump into the intriguing comparison of neurology versus psychology, exploring the intricate relationship between the brain and the mind.



Have you ever wondered where the seat of the mind within the body is?&nbsp;



I come up with a hypothesis that the mind functions as the reviewing faculty of the brain, engaging in a complex interplay of perceptions and actions.&nbsp;



Discover how the mind reviews experiences to construct a subjective narrative, shaping individual identity and free will.



We also examine the concept of contaminated free will, where fear influences the mind's interpretations, leading to a distortion of certain instincts namely sex, curiosity, interaction and adventure.&nbsp;



Learn how societal norms and the superego suppress these instincts, creating a fragmented mind that struggles with internal conflicts.



Furthermore, I discuss the implications of emotional constructs and how they can overshadow genuine instincts, leading to a life of mere existence rather than joyful living.&nbsp;



This episode emphasizes the importance of recognizing and nurturing our innate instincts to reclaim our sense of passion and joy.



Join me as I navigate through the complexities of human behavior, exploring how our physical postures can influence mental states and vice versa.&nbsp;



This episode is a call to embrace the simplicity of skeletal meditations to restore balance and harmony within our mind body system.

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Welcome back to the 19th episode of Skeletal Leap: A Living Adventure!</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Today’s episode titled “<strong>Pure Healing Energy: Kundalini Energy Vs Bioenergetics!</strong>” will tell you about bioenergetics vs kundalini and which one of the two passes to be the energy that creates life.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">How do materialists look at energy? They study biological energy as ’bioenergetics</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Vitalists call it Kundalini and its rise from the coccyx to the crown chakra is called Kundalini awakening.</p>





<p class="wp-block-paragraph">According to the Chakra system, when chakras are opened along the length of Sushumna, Kundalini gets awakened and rises up to the head.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The same process, when described in materialistic terms, is the flow of biological energy in the organ cells served by the vagus nerve. As a two-way dialogue between the gut and the brain through the vagus nerve gets re-established, energy flow gets regularized.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">SKELETAL LEAP, the mind body connection for mind and body healing, is a giant leap that our <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skeleton" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">skeleton</a> can take through the way it postures its joints.</p>



<p class="p1 wp-block-paragraph">I had stumbled upon this miracle many years ago, coincidentally</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Welcome back to 19th episode of Skeletal Leap: A Living Adventure!</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">In this 19th episode titled “Pure Healing Energy: Kundalini Energy Vs Bioenergetics!” I talk about energy flow within our bodies. I explore the contrasting perspectives of bioenergetics and Kundalini, examining which of these energies is the true essence of life.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">As an observer of patterns, I share my insights on how both materialistic and vitalistic approaches can offer profound understandings of our existence.&nbsp;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">I also narrate my personal experiences with energy, from the awakening of Kundalini to the scientific explanations of bioenergetics, highlighting the importance of both perspectives in our quest for healing and understanding.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:00.000,0:00:06.720
Our body is a storehouse of all kinds of&nbsp;
possible miracles whether you categorize them</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:06.720,0:00:26.400
under the materialistic or vitalistic approach
My name is Laadi Ojas. Welcome to “Skeletal Leap:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:26.400,0:00:34.080
A Living Adventure”. Skeletal Leap&nbsp;
transforms one’s life into a personal heaven.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:34.080,0:00:39.520
Today’s episode will tell you about&nbsp;
bioenergetics vs kundalini and which</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:39.520,0:00:44.640
one of the two passes to be&nbsp;
the energy that creates life.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:44.640,0:00:51.920
Who Am I: A Materialist Or A Vitalist?
That is a question I often ask to</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:51.920,0:00:58.560
myself. And I never get an answer.
It is because I am neither. I am just</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:58.560,0:01:06.160
an observer. If I observe a pattern, I want to&nbsp;
perceive it in its totality first. Then I let it</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:06.160,0:01:13.200
get ingested in my cognitive system. Once its&nbsp;
cognition is complete, I try to comprehend it</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:13.200,0:01:21.360
as a hypothesis. To me, it is a hypothesis ready&nbsp;
to be tested under strict laboratory conditions.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:21.360,0:01:27.440
This is so even if it is a spiritual&nbsp;
hypothesis. Only strict laboratory</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:27.440,0:01:35.200
conditions can ensure its authenticity, turning&nbsp;
it from a hypothesis to an established theory.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:35.200,0:01:42.560
In fact, I am an agnostic observer, neither a&nbsp;
theist nor an atheist. An unbiased observation</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:42.560,0:01:49.520
of patterns is what makes sense to me.
Patterns of Observation</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:49.520,0:01:54.560
I am generally interested in the patterns&nbsp;
of observations directly affecting my body,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:54.560,0:02:01.760
my mind and my spirit. That way, I myself&nbsp;
become a laboratory for any and all of my</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:01.760,0:02:11.120
hypotheses. I have the luxury of being present&nbsp;
in my own preliminary laboratory 24 x 7 x 365.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:11.840,0:02:16.720
Once my preliminary laboratory has&nbsp;
passed a certain hypothesis of mine,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:16.720,0:02:22.880
I extend it to others because further testing&nbsp;
is needed to filter out a possible subjective</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:22.880,0:02:29.680
influence on what I otherwise maintain as a&nbsp;
strictly objective preliminary laboratory.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:30.240,0:02:34.400
This process enables patterns&nbsp;
affecting my personal body,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:34.400,0:02:43.680
mind and spirit to be generalized as patterns&nbsp;
affecting all human bodies, minds and spirits.</p>

the flow of energy through living creatures.&nbsp;
The Flow of Life Energy through The Human Body</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:57.200,0:03:02.720
How does energy affect the&nbsp;
human body, mind and spirit?</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:02.720,0:03:10.720
I have experienced energy bursting from my&nbsp;
coccyx to my crown chakra. And not just once!</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:10.720,0:03:18.480
I do it every time I intend to perceive it with&nbsp;
every single breath of mine with an extended</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:18.480,0:03:26.320
exhalation. An added instantaneous effect of&nbsp;
this rising energy is a much clearer vision.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:26.880,0:03:33.680
This clearer vision is an objective feedback.&nbsp;
There is a plethora of other effects as well</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:33.680,0:03:38.000
but I will get to them later.
Where does this energy come</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:38.000,0:03:46.560
from? What’s the source of this energy?
Vitalists call it Kundalini and its rise from</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:46.560,0:03:54.640
the coccyx to the crown chakra is called Kundalini&nbsp;
awakening. They claim it is a non-physical cosmic</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:54.640,0:04:01.920
energy lying dormant at the base of the root&nbsp;
chakra in a living organism. This life-imparting</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:01.920,0:04:09.280
energy keeps lying dormant until and unless it is&nbsp;
awakened for bliss as well as a sense of joy even</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:09.280,0:04:16.960
in the most mundane activities of life.
How do materialists look at energy?</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:16.960,0:04:24.800
They study biological energy as ’bioenergetics’.
It is because their living cells require energy</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:24.800,0:04:30.800
for many of their functions including&nbsp;
cellular respiratory, metabolic,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:30.800,0:04:38.800
enzymatic and other processes. They use&nbsp;
adenosine triphosphate molecules (ATP) for</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:38.800,0:04:46.240
this purpose of producing and utilizing energy.
There are three kinds of living creatures:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:46.240,0:04:54.880
autotrophs, lithotrophs and heterotrophs.
Autotrophs (plants) receive energy from</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:54.880,0:05:01.360
sunlight through photosynthesis and don’t&nbsp;
require consuming it for themselves.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:01.360,0:05:08.640
Lithotrophs including photolithotrophs (plants)&nbsp;
and chemolithotrophs (microorganisms) produce</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:08.640,0:05:17.360
adenosine triphosphate molecules (ATP)&nbsp;
through aerobic or anaerobic respiration.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:17.360,0:05:22.960
Heterotrophs (animals) consume&nbsp;
adenosine triphosphate molecules</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:22.960,0:05:30.400
(ATP) and break them down into adenosine&nbsp;
diphosphate (ADP) and inorganic phosphate.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:31.280,0:05:39.280
This breaking down of ATP to ADP releases energy&nbsp;
for the cells to use for their various needs.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:39.280,0:05:47.040
Here is a list of bioenergetic processes required&nbsp;
for life in cells through consuming energy:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:48.000,0:05:55.760
Glycolysis: releasing energy from available&nbsp;
glucose or breaking it down to create ATP</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:55.760,0:06:04.880
molecules for future energy requirement.
Gluconeogenesis: creating glucose by</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:04.880,0:06:10.000
breaking proteins into simpler amino&nbsp;
acids which can create glucose.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:11.680,0:06:17.920
Cellular Respiration: is achieved when&nbsp;
citric acid cycle oxidizes carbon-containing</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:17.920,0:06:25.760
metabolites thereby creating coenzymes.&nbsp;
These coenzymes can later be re-oxidized</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:25.760,0:06:33.440
to start the citric acid cycle again.
Ketosis: is another metabolic process</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:33.440,0:06:39.600
achieved by using ketone bodies for&nbsp;
energy when glucose levels are low.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:40.880,0:06:46.320
Oxidative Phosphorylation: is a&nbsp;
process when coenzymes initiate</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:46.320,0:06:56.240
electron transport chain driving ATP synthesis.&nbsp;
Photosynthesis: is a process in the plant cells</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:56.240,0:07:03.840
using solar energy to create glucose. Vitamin&nbsp;
D production in human cells is another kind of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:03.840,0:07:12.560
photosynthesis that creates ATP molecules.&nbsp;
Cotransport: Sodium glucose cotransport</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:12.560,0:07:18.800
is another newly discovered process&nbsp;
facilitating intestinal glucose absorption.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:20.000,0:07:25.440
Chemiosmotic Theory: is another&nbsp;
recently discovered major energy</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:25.440,0:07:31.840
facilitating process in maximum number of&nbsp;
cells. It functions through using protons</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:31.840,0:07:39.840
in aqueous solution to produce ATP molecules.&nbsp;
So, for materialists, it is biological energy</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:39.840,0:07:46.480
alone that is taken in and transformed,&nbsp;
primarily by way of food, in the human body.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:46.480,0:07:52.000
Fair enough! They don’t want to go&nbsp;
along any cosmic hypothesis in the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:52.000,0:07:59.680
absence of a concrete evidence for the same.
Blockages in The Flow of Biological Energy</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:00.480,0:08:05.760
The problem starts when the flow of this&nbsp;
energy through the living creatures meets a</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:05.760,0:08:13.600
blockage along its path. When this happens, it&nbsp;
takes a toll on all the energy flow processes</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:13.600,0:08:20.400
including cellular respiratory, metabolic,&nbsp;
enzymatic and others, thereby limiting the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:20.400,0:08:27.120
flow of energy through the organism.
Here is a quote from Wikipedia…</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:27.120,0:08:32.720
Muscle cells work by detecting a flow of&nbsp;
electrical impulses from the brain, which signals</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:32.720,0:08:41.040
them to contract through the release of calcium&nbsp;
by the sarcoplasmic reticulum. Fatigue (reduced</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:41.040,0:08:48.320
ability to generate force) may occur due to the&nbsp;
nerve, or within the muscle cells themselves.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:49.120,0:08:55.600
New research from scientists at Columbia&nbsp;
University suggests that muscle fatigue is caused</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:55.600,0:09:03.680
by calcium leaking out of the muscle cell. This&nbsp;
makes less calcium available for the muscle cell.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:03.680,0:09:06.720
Courtesy, Wikipedia</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:06.720,0:09:11.040
Here is another code from Wikipedia again…</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:11.040,0:09:15.600
Nerves&nbsp;control the contraction of&nbsp;
muscles by determining the number,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:15.600,0:09:24.480
sequence, and force of muscular contraction.&nbsp;
When a nerve experiences&nbsp;synaptic fatigue&nbsp;it</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:24.480,0:09:28.800
becomes unable to stimulate&nbsp;
the muscle that it innervates.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:28.800,0:09:31.680
Courtesy, Wikipedia</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:31.680,0:09:37.840
The real question becomes: what essentially&nbsp;
controls the flow of this biological energy</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:37.840,0:09:45.440
with the purpose of producing and utilizing&nbsp;
it? The biologists’ answer is that the central</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:45.440,0:09:52.320
nervous system is responsible for the said&nbsp;
control in Homo sapiens. They contend that,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:52.320,0:09:59.760
if the central nervous system gets compromised,&nbsp;
the flow will get compromised too. The entire</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:59.760,0:10:07.600
organism will then feel low on energy and&nbsp;
succumb to various kinds of lifestyle diseases.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:07.600,0:10:11.920
The Vagus Nerve
How exactly does central</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:11.920,0:10:18.800
nervous system get compromised? It happens when&nbsp;
nerves that carry messages between the brain and</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:18.800,0:10:27.280
the organ cells get compromised. Especially&nbsp;
the 10th cranial nerve named the vagus nerve.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:28.240,0:10:33.120
This one nerve carries the major chunk&nbsp;
of messages to and from the most crucial</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:33.120,0:10:40.720
organs. It is the longest nerve in the central&nbsp;
nervous system and is designed to establish an</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:40.720,0:10:47.760
efficient dialogue between its two ends.&nbsp;
These two ends are the gut and the brain.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:47.760,0:10:53.280
Here is a quote from Wikipedia…
The vagus nerve, also known as the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:53.280,0:11:02.320
tenth cranial nerve, cranial nerve X, or simply&nbsp;
CN X, is a cranial nerve that interfaces with the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:02.320,0:11:11.040
parasympathetic control of the heart, lungs, and&nbsp;
digestive tract. It comprises two nerves—the left</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:11.040,0:11:17.520
and right vagus nerves—but they are typically&nbsp;
referred to collectively as a single subsystem.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:18.160,0:11:24.480
The vagus is the longest nerve of the autonomic&nbsp;
nervous system in the human body and comprises</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:24.480,0:11:32.640
both sensory and motor fibers. The sensory fibers&nbsp;
originate from neurons of the nodose ganglion,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:32.640,0:11:38.320
whereas the motor fibers come from neurons&nbsp;
of the dorsal motor nucleus of the vagus</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:38.320,0:11:45.360
and the nucleus ambiguous. The vagus was also&nbsp;
historically called the pneumogastric nerve.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:45.360,0:11:48.320
Courtesy, Wikipedia</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:48.320,0:11:52.960
How exactly does the vagus&nbsp;
nerve get compromised, then?</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:52.960,0:11:59.440
As per the analysis of Skeletal Leap, a&nbsp;
compromised skeletal posturing compromises</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:59.440,0:12:06.160
the anatomy of organs in its vicinity. The&nbsp;
physiology of an organ almost always gets</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:06.160,0:12:13.920
compromised when its anatomy is compromised. It&nbsp;
not only compromises the anatomy of the vagus</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:13.920,0:12:22.480
nerve but also organs served by it. It deforms&nbsp;
muscle groups and blood vessels around the organs</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:22.480,0:12:28.400
served by this nerve.
Formation of Chakras</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:28.400,0:12:33.440
This compromised anatomy gives birth to&nbsp;
closed chakras that are formed at seven</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:33.440,0:12:39.040
different locations along the length of the&nbsp;
vagus nerve, passing through the spinal cord.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:40.240,0:12:48.400
The vagus nerve comprises two parts: the ventral&nbsp;
vagus and the dorsal vagus. Incidentally,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:48.400,0:12:55.600
this same channel created by the vagus nerve is&nbsp;
referred to as Sushumna in the chakra system. And,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:55.600,0:13:01.040
just like the vagus nerve, Sushumna passing&nbsp;
through the spinal cord also comprises its</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:01.040,0:13:07.200
own two parts: Ida and Pingala.
According to the Chakra system,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:07.200,0:13:12.560
when chakras are opened along the length&nbsp;
of Sushumna, Kundalini gets awakened</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:12.560,0:13:20.000
and rises up to the head. It does so in a&nbsp;
streamlined flow without being blocked at</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:20.000,0:13:28.160
any of the closed chakra locations along its path.
The same process, when described in materialistic</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:28.160,0:13:34.160
terms, is the flow of biological energy in&nbsp;
the organ cells served by the vagus nerve.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:35.280,0:13:41.920
As a two-way dialogue between the gut and the&nbsp;
brain through the vagus nerve gets re-established,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:41.920,0:13:48.720
energy flow gets regularized.
Kundalini Awakening</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:48.720,0:13:55.920
Skeletal Leap infers that the perception of this&nbsp;
regularized energy flow has to be similar to the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:55.920,0:14:03.920
awakening of Kundalini and its rise up to the&nbsp;
crown chakra. It feels like a gush of biological</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:03.920,0:14:10.960
energy rising up from the gut to the head&nbsp;
through the spinal cord. As per the materialistic</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:10.960,0:14:16.640
approach, it is the gush of the dialogue between&nbsp;
the gut and the brain getting established</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:16.640,0:14:24.480
instantaneously. This is accompanied by a&nbsp;
simultaneous and instantaneous flow of energy to</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:24.480,0:14:31.680
the cells of the organs served by the vagus nerve.
So we can see that the perception and feeling of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:31.680,0:14:37.360
opening all the chakras together are&nbsp;
exactly the same. They are exactly</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:37.360,0:14:44.800
the same whether you look at it from the&nbsp;
angle of materialists or that of vitalists.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:44.800,0:14:50.720
I had defined chakras as deformities in&nbsp;
skeletal posturing leading to deformities</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:50.720,0:14:58.160
in the surrounding muscles, nerves and blood&nbsp;
vessels. Hence, it is the deformed anatomy</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:58.160,0:15:05.280
of these structures that negatively affects&nbsp;
the physiology of systems they are a part of.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:05.280,0:15:11.280
Let’s talk a bit more about energy. You might&nbsp;
have seen various kinds of people with various</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:11.280,0:15:19.280
levels of energy in their mind-body system. We&nbsp;
can also see similar differences in our pets.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:19.280,0:15:28.640
Patterns of Energy: Warm Vs&nbsp;
Cold, Hot Vs Cool &amp; Hot Vs Cold</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:28.640,0:15:34.800
’Warm’ and ‘cold’ are the two extremes on the&nbsp;
spectrum of energy levels we perceive in ourselves</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:34.800,0:15:43.200
and others. On the other hand, ‘hot’ and ‘cool’&nbsp;
are the extremes on the spectrum of our energy</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:43.200,0:15:50.480
balance. Of course, ‘hot’ and ‘cold’ also have&nbsp;
a sexual connotation where they are the extremes</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:50.480,0:15:58.560
on a spectrum of sexual energy levels in us.
Now, where does this difference in energy levels</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:58.560,0:16:08.160
come from? What makes people more passionate&nbsp;
for life, i.e., warm? What makes them less so,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:08.160,0:16:15.200
i.e., cold? What makes them energetically&nbsp;
balanced and at peace with themselves, i.e.,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:15.200,0:16:24.560
cool? More so, what makes them hot or cold in bed?
Are these the levels of their biological energy in</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:24.560,0:16:31.120
their physical systems? But I have seen many&nbsp;
people with a great passion for everything</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:31.120,0:16:38.880
around them, still falling prey to serious&nbsp;
lifestyle diseases. How do we explain that?</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:38.880,0:16:42.480
You can say those are the traits of&nbsp;
their personality and have nothing</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:42.480,0:16:49.840
to do with their level of energy. But&nbsp;
does this answer really make sense?</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:49.840,0:16:55.760
How are personalities formed? Is that a kind&nbsp;
of training one has learnt to live with in</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:55.760,0:17:04.240
one’s life? Or is the basic core of personality&nbsp;
more an innate phenomenon? I have seen numerous</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:04.240,0:17:11.520
children being born with various crying patterns.&nbsp;
Somehow, these patterns always gave me a hint</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:11.520,0:17:18.720
about what their personalities might develop like&nbsp;
as they grow. Whatever nurturing they may receive,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:18.720,0:17:26.240
I have observed that the basic core of their&nbsp;
personalities grows from their innate tendencies.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:26.240,0:17:32.080
Are we born with a particular energy&nbsp;
pattern as a seed in our mind-body system?</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:32.880,0:17:39.200
We need to research this further. Because,&nbsp;
if it is true, it strongly supports the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:39.200,0:17:46.240
vitalistic hypothesis of energy.
I am keeping my fingers crossed.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:46.240,0:17:52.400
At this point, I feel a need to tell&nbsp;
a few miraculous stories from my life.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:52.400,0:17:57.600
All these stories pose a real challenge in&nbsp;
understanding the dynamics of miraculous</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:57.600,0:18:02.800
energy patterns in the body.
The Story of An Instant Energy</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:02.800,0:18:07.280
Spurt That Saved A Child
The first one took place</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:07.280,0:18:14.240
in 1966 when I was an adolescent.
I was out for a sunny winter stroll</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:14.240,0:18:20.800
in Dehradun. It was a city downhill from my&nbsp;
hometown that I was visiting during my winter</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:20.800,0:18:28.480
holidays. As I walked leisurely, I witnessed&nbsp;
a miracle through my peripheral vision.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:28.480,0:18:35.440
A person took a giant leap in the air and&nbsp;
picked a kid up in front of a speeding car.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:35.440,0:18:42.080
Then I suddenly heard the harsh screech of&nbsp;
the car braking. Immediately after this,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:42.080,0:18:49.200
I heard a noise coming from across the road.&nbsp;
A small crowd had surrounded a middle-aged man</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:49.200,0:18:56.480
with a kid in his arms. I ran toward them and&nbsp;
asked a man in the crowd what had happened.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:57.200,0:19:02.080
He replied in a loud voice, “This&nbsp;
godlike man just saved this kid</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:02.080,0:19:08.400
from getting run over by that car.&nbsp;
But he himself doesn’t know how.”</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:08.400,0:19:15.440
Hearing him, the hero of the moment who, by&nbsp;
now, sat near the auto mechanic shop he owned,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:15.440,0:19:21.440
turned to us. He said, “I really don’t&nbsp;
remember what I did and how I did it.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:22.000,0:19:27.520
I was working in my shop when I saw this&nbsp;
kid just in front of that speeding car.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:27.520,0:19:32.480
The last thing I remember was saying to&nbsp;
myself that the kid was gone. And now</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:32.480,0:19:39.680
these people are telling me I have saved him.”
“Yes,” another man interrupted the conversation,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:39.680,0:19:46.400
“I clearly saw him jumping like a cheetah. He took&nbsp;
a leap to that far a location where the kid was,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:46.400,0:19:52.160
from his shop where he was working. Not even&nbsp;
an Olympic gold medalist would have been able</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:52.160,0:19:57.520
to perform a feat like that!”
The savior laughed in doubt,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:57.520,0:20:03.920
“Maybe God entered my body and made me do&nbsp;
what you say I did. But honestly speaking,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:03.920,0:20:11.120
I just don’t remember. And now I see this kid in&nbsp;
my arms here and that car applying brakes so far</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:11.120,0:20:20.720
ahead. Looks like I might have done it. After all,&nbsp;
why would you people lie?” I quickly assessed the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:20.720,0:20:28.000
distance between his shop and the spot where he&nbsp;
had prevented the accident from taking place. No</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:28.000,0:20:35.680
one could ever have believed that it was humanly&nbsp;
even possible to try doing what this man had done.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:35.680,0:20:41.600
I silently saluted that man and&nbsp;
went my way, thinking deep within.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:41.600,0:20:46.160
Even today, I don’t know if a spurt of&nbsp;
biological energy could have performed</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:46.160,0:20:54.480
that kind of miracle. Maybe yes, maybe&nbsp;
no! We need to research this further.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:54.480,0:21:00.000
The Story of Entering The State&nbsp;
of Flow through Endorphin Release</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:00.000,0:21:04.880
The second story took place&nbsp;
in 1978. It was the year I had</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:04.880,0:21:13.280
shifted from my small Himalayan hometown to Delhi.
Every evening, I’d go for a run. Usually for half</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:13.280,0:21:22.160
an hour. But that day, I didn’t stop after half an&nbsp;
hour. I kept running for longer. I got tired but I</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:22.160,0:21:31.520
didn’t stop. I continued running. One hour passed.&nbsp;
I was nearly exhausted but I still didn’t stop. I</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:31.520,0:21:37.680
still remember my feeling from that moment.&nbsp;
I was simply teasingly flirting with myself.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:38.560,0:21:44.640
I kept running. One and a half hours had&nbsp;
passed. I had almost reached the point of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:44.640,0:21:50.080
ultimate exhaustion. I kept going,&nbsp;
thinking, ”What’s the worst that can</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:50.080,0:21:59.200
happen? I would fall down on the road, that’s it!”
But it was not to happen. Something else did. At</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:59.200,0:22:07.040
one moment, all my tiredness suddenly went away.&nbsp;
I felt a sudden surge of a very cool and relaxed</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:07.040,0:22:14.880
energy in my body. I felt immensely fresh like&nbsp;
I was not running at all, I was rather floating</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:14.880,0:22:22.720
in the air. I felt like I could keep running&nbsp;
till eternity without making any effort at all.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:22.720,0:22:29.200
At that point, I decided to stop in order to&nbsp;
perceive more deeply what had happened to me.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:29.200,0:22:35.760
I started walking and looking around. I kept&nbsp;
feeling I was floating. Everything in front</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:35.760,0:22:42.320
of my eyes started looking much brighter to me.&nbsp;
I remember the feeling of awe that I was going</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:42.320,0:22:49.120
through as I walked on the road back home.
I reached home and sat down in a chair</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:49.120,0:22:56.880
ingesting deep within what I was experiencing.
After about an hour of sitting still in my chair,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:56.880,0:23:04.160
I was back to my old self. Soon thereafter,&nbsp;
I scrounged around in the literature for any</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:04.160,0:23:10.080
reference to what I had gone through. And&nbsp;
I came to discover that I had undergone a</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:10.080,0:23:16.560
classical experience of the ’state of flow’.&nbsp;
It is also known as ’being in the zone’.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:16.560,0:23:22.480
In the ancient Indian practice of Raja&nbsp;
Yoga, the state of flow is known as Samyama,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:22.480,0:23:29.760
meaning integration. It integrates the three top&nbsp;
hierarchical steps of Raja Yoga, namely Dharana,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:29.760,0:23:36.000
Dhyana and Samadhi into one single practice.
The state of flow hasn’t yet been fully</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:36.000,0:23:42.080
understood in terms of its associated&nbsp;
cellular processes. It still needs</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:42.080,0:23:47.280
further research in order to comprehend the&nbsp;
various collective benefits it provides, like:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:47.840,0:23:53.360
Completely involved in what we&nbsp;
are doing – focused, concentrated.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:54.240,0:23:59.120
A sense of ecstasy of being&nbsp;
outside everyday reality</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:00.240,0:24:07.120
Great inner clarity – knowing what needs&nbsp;
to be done, and how well we are doing.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:08.320,0:24:13.920
Knowing that the activity is doable –&nbsp;
that our skills are adequate to the task.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:15.680,0:24:20.720
A sense of serenity – no worries&nbsp;
about oneself, and a feeling of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:20.720,0:24:29.680
growing beyond the boundaries of the ego.
Timelessness – thoroughly focused on the present,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:29.680,0:24:36.800
hours seem to pass by the minute.
Intrinsic motivation – whatever</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:36.800,0:24:43.200
produces flow becomes its own reward.
One hypothesis is that the release of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:43.200,0:24:49.600
endorphins in the brain facilitates this&nbsp;
state of flow. If that is right, we only</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:49.600,0:24:56.160
need to know how to release these endorphins&nbsp;
naturally to achieve this state at will.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:56.160,0:25:02.640
The Story of Entering An Unbelievable&nbsp;
Energetic State through Serotonin Release</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:02.640,0:25:08.880
The third story that was an extension of the&nbsp;
state of flow story took place three years later,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:08.880,0:25:16.960
in 1981. Three years had passed since I had&nbsp;
moved from my hometown in Mussoorie to Delhi.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:16.960,0:25:23.680
At the same time, an estranged girlfriend of mine&nbsp;
from Dehradun had moved to Delhi as well to enroll</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:23.680,0:25:31.600
as a student at the National School of Drama. I&nbsp;
was also stationed there to work on a project.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:31.600,0:25:38.160
We had had a bitter fight before we moved&nbsp;
and had stopped talking to each other since.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:38.160,0:25:45.440
Our paths kept crossing everyday and we&nbsp;
just passed each other like two strangers.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:45.440,0:25:51.360
It was awkward. It indicated that we were&nbsp;
still strongly attracted to each other,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:51.360,0:25:57.280
otherwise we would have let go and moved on.&nbsp;
Why else would we not talk to each other?</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:58.080,0:26:04.080
Three years passed by and the pattern of our&nbsp;
behavior remained the same through these years.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:04.080,0:26:10.480
Then one day, it occurred to me that I wanted&nbsp;
my mind to get free from my concern for her.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:10.480,0:26:15.360
I went to her room in the hostel and proposed&nbsp;
that we have an unconditional dialogue with each</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:15.360,0:26:24.880
other. It would help both of us let go of each&nbsp;
other from our minds. She readily agreed. It was</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:24.880,0:26:30.480
3 o’ clock in the afternoon at that moment.&nbsp;
We decided we would meet after three hours,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:30.480,0:26:36.640
at 6 o’ clock, at a nearby restaurant.
I left her hostel and started walking on the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:36.640,0:26:44.640
road. But I suddenly discovered my gait was not&nbsp;
the same old gait. I wasn’t really feeling like</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:44.640,0:26:52.240
I was walking. I was feeling like I was flying.&nbsp;
This time this feeling of flying was different</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:52.240,0:26:59.040
from the relaxed, effortless feeling of floating&nbsp;
in the state of flow. Although this feeling was</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:59.040,0:27:07.200
also an effortless one, it was way more energetic.&nbsp;
Even my speed was much faster although I wasn’t</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:07.200,0:27:14.160
intentionally walking that fast. It was this&nbsp;
miraculous spurt of energy that was controlling</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:14.160,0:27:22.080
my speed despite myself. I was feeling like my&nbsp;
feet were not really touching the ground at all,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:22.080,0:27:30.080
making me feel like I was flying. I had&nbsp;
never walked at a speed like that before.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:30.080,0:27:37.520
Believe it or not, I kept feeling like flying&nbsp;
at the same speed for three full hours.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:37.520,0:27:44.000
And exactly at 6 o’ clock, I ended up at&nbsp;
the restaurant where we had decided to meet.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:44.000,0:27:49.360
What happened during the meeting was beyond&nbsp;
my wildest imagination, but that is not</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:49.360,0:27:56.320
what we’re concerned with in this episode.
Later, I looked for references in literature</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:56.320,0:28:02.800
resembling this new state I had experienced.
There, I came to discover that it could be due</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:02.800,0:28:09.280
to the release of serotonin in my brain. It&nbsp;
was this hormone that had made me leap into</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:09.280,0:28:17.360
that state I had been in for three full hours.
I kept wondering if we could release serotonin</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:17.360,0:28:25.120
at will and started researching on the subject.
Ultimately, many years later, when I was working</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:25.120,0:28:32.720
in the discipline of chakras, I picked the lost&nbsp;
thread up again. I realized that the release</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:32.720,0:28:39.200
of serotonin was an integral part of opening the&nbsp;
crown chakra through skeletal guided meditation.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:39.200,0:28:46.160
Our body is a storehouse of all kinds of possible&nbsp;
miracles whether you categorize them under the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:46.160,0:28:52.400
materialistic or vitalistic approach.
Why don’t we unearth them and</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:52.400,0:28:59.200
make them an integral part of our life?

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Welcome back to the 19th episode of Skeletal Leap: A Living Adventure!</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Today’s episode titled “<strong>Pure Healing Energy: Kundalini Energy Vs Bioenergetics!</strong>” will tell you about bioenergetics vs kundalini and which one of the two passes to be the energy that creates life.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">How do materialists look at energy? They study biological energy as ’bioenergetics</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Vitalists call it Kundalini and its rise from the coccyx to the crown chakra is called Kundalini awakening.</p>





<p class="wp-block-paragraph">According to the Chakra system, when chakras are opened along the length of Sushumna, Kundalini gets awakened and rises up to the head.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The same process, when described in materialistic terms, is the flow of biological energy in the organ cells served by the vagus nerve. As a two-way dialogue between the gut and the brain through the vagus nerve gets re-established, energy flow gets regularized.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">SKELETAL LEAP, the mind body connection for mind and body healing, is a giant leap that our <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skeleton" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">skeleton</a> can take through the way it postures its joints.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Welcome back to 19th episode of Skeletal Leap: A Living Adventure!</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">In this 19th episode titled “Pure Healing Energy: Kundalini Energy Vs Bioenergetics!” I talk about energy flow within our bodies. I explore the contrasting perspectives of bioenergetics and Kundalini, examining which of these energies is the true essence of life.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">As an observer of patterns, I share my insights on how both materialistic and vitalistic approaches can offer profound understandings of our existence.&nbsp;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">I also narrate my personal experiences with energy, from the awakening of Kundalini to the scientific explanations of bioenergetics, highlighting the importance of both perspectives in our quest for healing and understanding.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">You will find:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">- The significance of bioenergetics in understanding the flow of energy through living organisms.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">- The concept of Kundalini and its role in spiritual awakening.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">- How energy blockages can affect our health and well-being.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">- Real-life stories illustrating miraculous experiences with energy and its transformative power.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:06.720,0:00:26.400

My name is Laadi Ojas. Welcome to “Skeletal Leap:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:26.400,0:00:34.080
A Living Adventure”. Skeletal Leap&nbsp;
transforms one’s life into a personal heaven.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:34.080,0:00:39.520
Today’s episode will tell you about&nbsp;
bioenergetics vs kundalini and which</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:39.520,0:00:44.640
one of the two passes to be&nbsp;
the energy that creates life.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:44.640,0:00:51.920
Who Am I: A Materialist Or A Vitalist?
That is a question I often ask to</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:51.920,0:00:58.560
myself. And I never get an answer.
It is because I am neither. I am just</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:58.560,0:01:06.160
an observer. If I observe a pattern, I want to&nbsp;
perceive it in its totality first. Then I let it</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:06.160,0:01:13.200
get ingested in my cognitive system. Once its&nbsp;
cognition is complete, I try to comprehend it</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:13.200,0:01:21.360
as a hypothesis. To me, it is a hypothesis ready&nbsp;
to be tested under strict laboratory conditions.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:21.360,0:01:27.440
This is so even if it is a spiritual&nbsp;
hypothesis. Only strict laboratory</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:27.440,0:01:35.200
conditions can ensure its authenticity, turning&nbsp;
it from a hypothesis to an established theory.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:35.200,0:01:42.560
In fact, I am an agnostic observer, neither a&nbsp;
theist nor an atheist. An unbiased observation</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:42.560,0:01:49.520
of patterns is what makes sense to me.
Patterns of Observation</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:49.520,0:01:54.560
I am generally interested in the patterns&nbsp;
of observations directly affecting my body,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:54.560,0:02:01.760
my mind and my spirit. That way, I myself&nbsp;
become a laboratory for any and all of my</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:01.760,0:02:11.120
hypotheses. I have the luxury of being present&nbsp;
in my own preliminary laboratory 24 x 7 x 365.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:11.840,0:02:16.720
Once my preliminary laboratory has&nbsp;
passed a certain hypothesis of mine,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:16.720,0:02:22.880
I extend it to others because further testing&nbsp;
is needed to filter out a possible subjective</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:22.880,0:02:29.680
influence on what I otherwise maintain as a&nbsp;
strictly objective preliminary laboratory.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:30.240,0:02:34.400
This process enables patterns&nbsp;
affecting my personal body,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:34.400,0:02:43.680
mind and spirit to be generalized as patterns&nbsp;
affecting all human bodies, minds and spirits.</p>

The Flow of Life Energy through The Human Body</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:57.200,0:03:02.720
How does energy affect the&nbsp;
human body, mind and spirit?</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:02.720,0:03:10.720
I have experienced energy bursting from my&nbsp;
coccyx to my crown chakra. And not just once!</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:10.720,0:03:18.480
I do it every time I intend to perceive it with&nbsp;
every single breath of mine with an extended</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:18.480,0:03:26.320
exhalation. An added instantaneous effect of&nbsp;
this rising energy is a much clearer vision.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:26.880,0:03:33.680
This clearer vision is an objective feedback.&nbsp;
There is a plethora of other effects as well</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:33.680,0:03:38.000
but I will get to them later.
Where does this energy come</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:38.000,0:03:46.560
from? What’s the source of this energy?
Vitalists call it Kundalini and its rise from</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:46.560,0:03:54.640
the coccyx to the crown chakra is called Kundalini&nbsp;
awakening. They claim it is a non-physical cosmic</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:54.640,0:04:01.920
energy lying dormant at the base of the root&nbsp;
chakra in a living organism. This life-imparting</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:01.920,0:04:09.280
energy keeps lying dormant until and unless it is&nbsp;
awakened for bliss as well as a sense of joy even</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:09.280,0:04:16.960
in the most mundane activities of life.
How do materialists look at energy?</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:16.960,0:04:24.800
They study biological energy as ’bioenergetics’.
It is because their living cells require energy</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:24.800,0:04:30.800
for many of their functions including&nbsp;
cellular respiratory, metabolic,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:30.800,0:04:38.800
enzymatic and other processes. They use&nbsp;
adenosine triphosphate molecules (ATP) for</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:38.800,0:04:46.240
this purpose of producing and utilizing energy.
There are three kinds of living creatures:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:46.240,0:04:54.880
autotrophs, lithotrophs and heterotrophs.
Autotrophs (plants) receive energy from</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:54.880,0:05:01.360
sunlight through photosynthesis and don’t&nbsp;
require consuming it for themselves.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:01.360,0:05:08.640
Lithotrophs including photolithotrophs (plants)&nbsp;
and chemolithotrophs (microorganisms) produce</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:08.640,0:05:17.360
adenosine triphosphate molecules (ATP)&nbsp;
through aerobic or anaerobic respiration.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:17.360,0:05:22.960
Heterotrophs (animals) consume&nbsp;
adenosine triphosphate molecules</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:22.960,0:05:30.400
(ATP) and break them down into adenosine&nbsp;
diphosphate (ADP) and inorganic phosphate.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:31.280,0:05:39.280
This breaking down of ATP to ADP releases energy&nbsp;
for the cells to use for their various needs.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:39.280,0:05:47.040
Here is a list of bioenergetic processes required&nbsp;
for life in cells through consuming energy:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:48.000,0:05:55.760
Glycolysis: releasing energy from available&nbsp;
glucose or breaking it down to create ATP</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:55.760,0:06:04.880
molecules for future energy requirement.
Gluconeogenesis: creating glucose by</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:04.880,0:06:10.000
breaking proteins into simpler amino&nbsp;
acids which can create glucose.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:11.680,0:06:17.920
Cellular Respiration: is achieved when&nbsp;
citric acid cycle oxidizes carbon-containing</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:17.920,0:06:25.760
metabolites thereby creating coenzymes.&nbsp;
These coenzymes can later be re-oxidized</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:25.760,0:06:33.440
to start the citric acid cycle again.
Ketosis: is another metabolic process</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:33.440,0:06:39.600
achieved by using ketone bodies for&nbsp;
energy when glucose levels are low.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:40.880,0:06:46.320
Oxidative Phosphorylation: is a&nbsp;
process when coenzymes initiate</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:46.320,0:06:56.240
electron transport chain driving ATP synthesis.&nbsp;
Photosynthesis: is a process in the plant cells</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:56.240,0:07:03.840
using solar energy to create glucose. Vitamin&nbsp;
D production in human cells is another kind of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:03.840,0:07:12.560
photosynthesis that creates ATP molecules.&nbsp;
Cotransport: Sodium glucose cotransport</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:12.560,0:07:18.800
is another newly discovered process&nbsp;
facilitating intestinal glucose absorption.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:20.000,0:07:25.440
Chemiosmotic Theory: is another&nbsp;
recently discovered major energy</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:25.440,0:07:31.840
facilitating process in maximum number of&nbsp;
cells. It functions through using protons</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:31.840,0:07:39.840
in aqueous solution to produce ATP molecules.&nbsp;
So, for materialists, it is biological energy</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:39.840,0:07:46.480
alone that is taken in and transformed,&nbsp;
primarily by way of food, in the human body.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:46.480,0:07:52.000
Fair enough! They don’t want to go&nbsp;
along any cosmic hypothesis in the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:52.000,0:07:59.680
absence of a concrete evidence for the same.
Blockages in The Flow of Biological Energy</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:00.480,0:08:05.760
The problem starts when the flow of this&nbsp;
energy through the living creatures meets a</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:05.760,0:08:13.600
blockage along its path. When this happens, it&nbsp;
takes a toll on all the energy flow processes</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:13.600,0:08:20.400
including cellular respiratory, metabolic,&nbsp;
enzymatic and others, thereby limiting the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:20.400,0:08:27.120
flow of energy through the organism.
Here is a quote from Wikipedia…</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:27.120,0:08:32.720
Muscle cells work by detecting a flow of&nbsp;
electrical impulses from the brain, which signals</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:32.720,0:08:41.040
them to contract through the release of calcium&nbsp;
by the sarcoplasmic reticulum. Fatigue (reduced</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:41.040,0:08:48.320
ability to generate force) may occur due to the&nbsp;
nerve, or within the muscle cells themselves.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:49.120,0:08:55.600
New research from scientists at Columbia&nbsp;
University suggests that muscle fatigue is caused</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:55.600,0:09:03.680
by calcium leaking out of the muscle cell. This&nbsp;
makes less calcium available for the muscle cell.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:03.680,0:09:06.720
Courtesy, Wikipedia</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:06.720,0:09:11.040
Here is another code from Wikipedia again…</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:11.040,0:09:15.600
Nerves&nbsp;control the contraction of&nbsp;
muscles by determining the number,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:15.600,0:09:24.480
sequence, and force of muscular contraction.&nbsp;
When a nerve experiences&nbsp;synaptic fatigue&nbsp;it</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:24.480,0:09:28.800
becomes unable to stimulate&nbsp;
the muscle that it innervates.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:28.800,0:09:31.680
Courtesy, Wikipedia</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:31.680,0:09:37.840
The real question becomes: what essentially&nbsp;
controls the flow of this biological energy</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:37.840,0:09:45.440
with the purpose of producing and utilizing&nbsp;
it? The biologists’ answer is that the central</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:45.440,0:09:52.320
nervous system is responsible for the said&nbsp;
control in Homo sapiens. They contend that,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:52.320,0:09:59.760
if the central nervous system gets compromised,&nbsp;
the flow will get compromised too. The entire</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:59.760,0:10:07.600
organism will then feel low on energy and&nbsp;
succumb to various kinds of lifestyle diseases.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:07.600,0:10:11.920
The Vagus Nerve
How exactly does central</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:11.920,0:10:18.800
nervous system get compromised? It happens when&nbsp;
nerves that carry messages between the brain and</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:18.800,0:10:27.280
the organ cells get compromised. Especially&nbsp;
the 10th cranial nerve named the vagus nerve.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:28.240,0:10:33.120
This one nerve carries the major chunk&nbsp;
of messages to and from the most crucial</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:33.120,0:10:40.720
organs. It is the longest nerve in the central&nbsp;
nervous system and is designed to establish an</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:40.720,0:10:47.760
efficient dialogue between its two ends.&nbsp;
These two ends are the gut and the brain.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:47.760,0:10:53.280
Here is a quote from Wikipedia…
The vagus nerve, also known as the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:53.280,0:11:02.320
tenth cranial nerve, cranial nerve X, or simply&nbsp;
CN X, is a cranial nerve that interfaces with the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:02.320,0:11:11.040
parasympathetic control of the heart, lungs, and&nbsp;
digestive tract. It comprises two nerves—the left</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:11.040,0:11:17.520
and right vagus nerves—but they are typically&nbsp;
referred to collectively as a single subsystem.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:18.160,0:11:24.480
The vagus is the longest nerve of the autonomic&nbsp;
nervous system in the human body and comprises</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:24.480,0:11:32.640
both sensory and motor fibers. The sensory fibers&nbsp;
originate from neurons of the nodose ganglion,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:32.640,0:11:38.320
whereas the motor fibers come from neurons&nbsp;
of the dorsal motor nucleus of the vagus</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:38.320,0:11:45.360
and the nucleus ambiguous. The vagus was also&nbsp;
historically called the pneumogastric nerve.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:48.320,0:11:52.960
How exactly does the vagus&nbsp;
nerve get compromised, then?</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:52.960,0:11:59.440
As per the analysis of Skeletal Leap, a&nbsp;
compromised skeletal posturing compromises</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:59.440,0:12:06.160
the anatomy of organs in its vicinity. The&nbsp;
physiology of an organ almost always gets</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:06.160,0:12:13.920
compromised when its anatomy is compromised. It&nbsp;
not only compromises the anatomy of the vagus</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:13.920,0:12:22.480
nerve but also organs served by it. It deforms&nbsp;
muscle groups and blood vessels around the organs</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:22.480,0:12:28.400
served by this nerve.
Formation of Chakras</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:28.400,0:12:33.440
This compromised anatomy gives birth to&nbsp;
closed chakras that are formed at seven</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:33.440,0:12:39.040
different locations along the length of the&nbsp;
vagus nerve, passing through the spinal cord.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:40.240,0:12:48.400
The vagus nerve comprises two parts: the ventral&nbsp;
vagus and the dorsal vagus. Incidentally,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:48.400,0:12:55.600
this same channel created by the vagus nerve is&nbsp;
referred to as Sushumna in the chakra system. And,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:55.600,0:13:01.040
just like the vagus nerve, Sushumna passing&nbsp;
through the spinal cord also comprises its</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:01.040,0:13:07.200
own two parts: Ida and Pingala.
According to the Chakra system,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:07.200,0:13:12.560
when chakras are opened along the length&nbsp;
of Sushumna, Kundalini gets awakened</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:12.560,0:13:20.000
and rises up to the head. It does so in a&nbsp;
streamlined flow without being blocked at</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:20.000,0:13:28.160
any of the closed chakra locations along its path.
The same process, when described in materialistic</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:28.160,0:13:34.160
terms, is the flow of biological energy in&nbsp;
the organ cells served by the vagus nerve.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:35.280,0:13:41.920
As a two-way dialogue between the gut and the&nbsp;
brain through the vagus nerve gets re-established,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:41.920,0:13:48.720
energy flow gets regularized.
Kundalini Awakening</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:48.720,0:13:55.920
Skeletal Leap infers that the perception of this&nbsp;
regularized energy flow has to be similar to the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:55.920,0:14:03.920
awakening of Kundalini and its rise up to the&nbsp;
crown chakra. It feels like a gush of biological</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:03.920,0:14:10.960
energy rising up from the gut to the head&nbsp;
through the spinal cord. As per the materialistic</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:10.960,0:14:16.640
approach, it is the gush of the dialogue between&nbsp;
the gut and the brain getting established</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:16.640,0:14:24.480
instantaneously. This is accompanied by a&nbsp;
simultaneous and instantaneous flow of energy to</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:24.480,0:14:31.680
the cells of the organs served by the vagus nerve.
So we can see that the perception and feeling of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:31.680,0:14:37.360
opening all the chakras together are&nbsp;
exactly the same. They are exactly</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:37.360,0:14:44.800
the same whether you look at it from the&nbsp;
angle of materialists or that of vitalists.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:44.800,0:14:50.720
I had defined chakras as deformities in&nbsp;
skeletal posturing leading to deformities</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:50.720,0:14:58.160
in the surrounding muscles, nerves and blood&nbsp;
vessels. Hence, it is the deformed anatomy</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:58.160,0:15:05.280
of these structures that negatively affects&nbsp;
the physiology of systems they are a part of.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:05.280,0:15:11.280
Let’s talk a bit more about energy. You might&nbsp;
have seen various kinds of people with various</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:11.280,0:15:19.280
levels of energy in their mind-body system. We&nbsp;
can also see similar differences in our pets.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:19.280,0:15:28.640
Patterns of Energy: Warm Vs&nbsp;
Cold, Hot Vs Cool &amp; Hot Vs Cold</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:28.640,0:15:34.800
’Warm’ and ‘cold’ are the two extremes on the&nbsp;
spectrum of energy levels we perceive in ourselves</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:34.800,0:15:43.200
and others. On the other hand, ‘hot’ and ‘cool’&nbsp;
are the extremes on the spectrum of our energy</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:43.200,0:15:50.480
balance. Of course, ‘hot’ and ‘cold’ also have&nbsp;
a sexual connotation where they are the extremes</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:50.480,0:15:58.560
on a spectrum of sexual energy levels in us.
Now, where does this difference in energy levels</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:58.560,0:16:08.160
come from? What makes people more passionate&nbsp;
for life, i.e., warm? What makes them less so,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:08.160,0:16:15.200
i.e., cold? What makes them energetically&nbsp;
balanced and at peace with themselves, i.e.,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:15.200,0:16:24.560
cool? More so, what makes them hot or cold in bed?
Are these the levels of their biological energy in</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:24.560,0:16:31.120
their physical systems? But I have seen many&nbsp;
people with a great passion for everything</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:31.120,0:16:38.880
around them, still falling prey to serious&nbsp;
lifestyle diseases. How do we explain that?</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:38.880,0:16:42.480
You can say those are the traits of&nbsp;
their personality and have nothing</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:42.480,0:16:49.840
to do with their level of energy. But&nbsp;
does this answer really make sense?</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:49.840,0:16:55.760
How are personalities formed? Is that a kind&nbsp;
of training one has learnt to live with in</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:55.760,0:17:04.240
one’s life? Or is the basic core of personality&nbsp;
more an innate phenomenon? I have seen numerous</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:04.240,0:17:11.520
children being born with various crying patterns.&nbsp;
Somehow, these patterns always gave me a hint</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:11.520,0:17:18.720
about what their personalities might develop like&nbsp;
as they grow. Whatever nurturing they may receive,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:18.720,0:17:26.240
I have observed that the basic core of their&nbsp;
personalities grows from their innate tendencies.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:26.240,0:17:32.080
Are we born with a particular energy&nbsp;
pattern as a seed in our mind-body system?</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:32.880,0:17:39.200
We need to research this further. Because,&nbsp;
if it is true, it strongly supports the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:39.200,0:17:46.240
vitalistic hypothesis of energy.
I am keeping my fingers crossed.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:46.240,0:17:52.400
At this point, I feel a need to tell&nbsp;
a few miraculous stories from my life.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:52.400,0:17:57.600
All these stories pose a real challenge in&nbsp;
understanding the dynamics of miraculous</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:57.600,0:18:02.800
energy patterns in the body.
The Story of An Instant Energy</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:02.800,0:18:07.280
Spurt That Saved A Child
The first one took place</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:07.280,0:18:14.240
in 1966 when I was an adolescent.
I was out for a sunny winter stroll</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:14.240,0:18:20.800
in Dehradun. It was a city downhill from my&nbsp;
hometown that I was visiting during my winter</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:20.800,0:18:28.480
holidays. As I walked leisurely, I witnessed&nbsp;
a miracle through my peripheral vision.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:28.480,0:18:35.440
A person took a giant leap in the air and&nbsp;
picked a kid up in front of a speeding car.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:35.440,0:18:42.080
Then I suddenly heard the harsh screech of&nbsp;
the car braking. Immediately after this,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:42.080,0:18:49.200
I heard a noise coming from across the road.&nbsp;
A small crowd had surrounded a middle-aged man</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:49.200,0:18:56.480
with a kid in his arms. I ran toward them and&nbsp;
asked a man in the crowd what had happened.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:57.200,0:19:02.080
He replied in a loud voice, “This&nbsp;
godlike man just saved this kid</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:02.080,0:19:08.400
from getting run over by that car.&nbsp;
But he himself doesn’t know how.”</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:08.400,0:19:15.440
Hearing him, the hero of the moment who, by&nbsp;
now, sat near the auto mechanic shop he owned,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:15.440,0:19:21.440
turned to us. He said, “I really don’t&nbsp;
remember what I did and how I did it.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:22.000,0:19:27.520
I was working in my shop when I saw this&nbsp;
kid just in front of that speeding car.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:27.520,0:19:32.480
The last thing I remember was saying to&nbsp;
myself that the kid was gone. And now</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:32.480,0:19:39.680
these people are telling me I have saved him.”
“Yes,” another man interrupted the conversation,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:39.680,0:19:46.400
“I clearly saw him jumping like a cheetah. He took&nbsp;
a leap to that far a location where the kid was,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:46.400,0:19:52.160
from his shop where he was working. Not even&nbsp;
an Olympic gold medalist would have been able</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:52.160,0:19:57.520
to perform a feat like that!”
The savior laughed in doubt,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:57.520,0:20:03.920
“Maybe God entered my body and made me do&nbsp;
what you say I did. But honestly speaking,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:03.920,0:20:11.120
I just don’t remember. And now I see this kid in&nbsp;
my arms here and that car applying brakes so far</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:11.120,0:20:20.720
ahead. Looks like I might have done it. After all,&nbsp;
why would you people lie?” I quickly assessed the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:20.720,0:20:28.000
distance between his shop and the spot where he&nbsp;
had prevented the accident from taking place. No</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:28.000,0:20:35.680
one could ever have believed that it was humanly&nbsp;
even possible to try doing what this man had done.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:35.680,0:20:41.600
I silently saluted that man and&nbsp;
went my way, thinking deep within.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:41.600,0:20:46.160
Even today, I don’t know if a spurt of&nbsp;
biological energy could have performed</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:46.160,0:20:54.480
that kind of miracle. Maybe yes, maybe&nbsp;
no! We need to research this further.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:54.480,0:21:00.000
The Story of Entering The State&nbsp;
of Flow through Endorphin Release</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:00.000,0:21:04.880
The second story took place&nbsp;
in 1978. It was the year I had</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:04.880,0:21:13.280
shifted from my small Himalayan hometown to Delhi.
Every evening, I’d go for a run. Usually for half</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:13.280,0:21:22.160
an hour. But that day, I didn’t stop after half an&nbsp;
hour. I kept running for longer. I got tired but I</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:22.160,0:21:31.520
didn’t stop. I continued running. One hour passed.&nbsp;
I was nearly exhausted but I still didn’t stop. I</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:31.520,0:21:37.680
still remember my feeling from that moment.&nbsp;
I was simply teasingly flirting with myself.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:38.560,0:21:44.640
I kept running. One and a half hours had&nbsp;
passed. I had almost reached the point of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:44.640,0:21:50.080
ultimate exhaustion. I kept going,&nbsp;
thinking, ”What’s the worst that can</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:50.080,0:21:59.200
happen? I would fall down on the road, that’s it!”
But it was not to happen. Something else did. At</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:59.200,0:22:07.040
one moment, all my tiredness suddenly went away.&nbsp;
I felt a sudden surge of a very cool and relaxed</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:07.040,0:22:14.880
energy in my body. I felt immensely fresh like&nbsp;
I was not running at all, I was rather floating</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:14.880,0:22:22.720
in the air. I felt like I could keep running&nbsp;
till eternity without making any effort at all.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:22.720,0:22:29.200
At that point, I decided to stop in order to&nbsp;
perceive more deeply what had happened to me.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:29.200,0:22:35.760
I started walking and looking around. I kept&nbsp;
feeling I was floating. Everything in front</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:35.760,0:22:42.320
of my eyes started looking much brighter to me.&nbsp;
I remember the feeling of awe that I was going</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:42.320,0:22:49.120
through as I walked on the road back home.
I reached home and sat down in a chair</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:49.120,0:22:56.880
ingesting deep within what I was experiencing.
After about an hour of sitting still in my chair,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:56.880,0:23:04.160
I was back to my old self. Soon thereafter,&nbsp;
I scrounged around in the literature for any</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:04.160,0:23:10.080
reference to what I had gone through. And&nbsp;
I came to discover that I had undergone a</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:10.080,0:23:16.560
classical experience of the ’state of flow’.&nbsp;
It is also known as ’being in the zone’.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:16.560,0:23:22.480
In the ancient Indian practice of Raja&nbsp;
Yoga, the state of flow is known as Samyama,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:22.480,0:23:29.760
meaning integration. It integrates the three top&nbsp;
hierarchical steps of Raja Yoga, namely Dharana,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:29.760,0:23:36.000
Dhyana and Samadhi into one single practice.
The state of flow hasn’t yet been fully</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:36.000,0:23:42.080
understood in terms of its associated&nbsp;
cellular processes. It still needs</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:42.080,0:23:47.280
further research in order to comprehend the&nbsp;
various collective benefits it provides, like:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:47.840,0:23:53.360
Completely involved in what we&nbsp;
are doing – focused, concentrated.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:54.240,0:23:59.120
A sense of ecstasy of being&nbsp;
outside everyday reality</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:00.240,0:24:07.120
Great inner clarity – knowing what needs&nbsp;
to be done, and how well we are doing.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:08.320,0:24:13.920
Knowing that the activity is doable –&nbsp;
that our skills are adequate to the task.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:15.680,0:24:20.720
A sense of serenity – no worries&nbsp;
about oneself, and a feeling of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:20.720,0:24:29.680
growing beyond the boundaries of the ego.
Timelessness – thoroughly focused on the present,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:29.680,0:24:36.800
hours seem to pass by the minute.
Intrinsic motivation – whatever</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:36.800,0:24:43.200
produces flow becomes its own reward.
One hypothesis is that the release of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:43.200,0:24:49.600
endorphins in the brain facilitates this&nbsp;
state of flow. If that is right, we only</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:49.600,0:24:56.160
need to know how to release these endorphins&nbsp;
naturally to achieve this state at will.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:02.640,0:25:08.880
The third story that was an extension of the&nbsp;
state of flow story took place three years later,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:08.880,0:25:16.960
in 1981. Three years had passed since I had&nbsp;
moved from my hometown in Mussoorie to Delhi.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:16.960,0:25:23.680
At the same time, an estranged girlfriend of mine&nbsp;
from Dehradun had moved to Delhi as well to enroll</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:23.680,0:25:31.600
as a student at the National School of Drama. I&nbsp;
was also stationed there to work on a project.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:31.600,0:25:38.160
We had had a bitter fight before we moved&nbsp;
and had stopped talking to each other since.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:38.160,0:25:45.440
Our paths kept crossing everyday and we&nbsp;
just passed each other like two strangers.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:45.440,0:25:51.360
It was awkward. It indicated that we were&nbsp;
still strongly attracted to each other,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:51.360,0:25:57.280
otherwise we would have let go and moved on.&nbsp;
Why else would we not talk to each other?</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:58.080,0:26:04.080
Three years passed by and the pattern of our&nbsp;
behavior remained the same through these years.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:04.080,0:26:10.480
Then one day, it occurred to me that I wanted&nbsp;
my mind to get free from my concern for her.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:10.480,0:26:15.360
I went to her room in the hostel and proposed&nbsp;
that we have an unconditional dialogue with each</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:15.360,0:26:24.880
other. It would help both of us let go of each&nbsp;
other from our minds. She readily agreed. It was</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:24.880,0:26:30.480
3 o’ clock in the afternoon at that moment.&nbsp;
We decided we would meet after three hours,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:30.480,0:26:36.640
at 6 o’ clock, at a nearby restaurant.
I left her hostel and started walking on the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:36.640,0:26:44.640
road. But I suddenly discovered my gait was not&nbsp;
the same old gait. I wasn’t really feeling like</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:44.640,0:26:52.240
I was walking. I was feeling like I was flying.&nbsp;
This time this feeling of flying was different</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:52.240,0:26:59.040
from the relaxed, effortless feeling of floating&nbsp;
in the state of flow. Although this feeling was</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:59.040,0:27:07.200
also an effortless one, it was way more energetic.&nbsp;
Even my speed was much faster although I wasn’t</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:07.200,0:27:14.160
intentionally walking that fast. It was this&nbsp;
miraculous spurt of energy that was controlling</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:14.160,0:27:22.080
my speed despite myself. I was feeling like my&nbsp;
feet were not really touching the ground at all,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:22.080,0:27:30.080
making me feel like I was flying. I had&nbsp;
never walked at a speed like that before.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:30.080,0:27:37.520
Believe it or not, I kept feeling like flying&nbsp;
at the same speed for three full hours.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:37.520,0:27:44.000
And exactly at 6 o’ clock, I ended up at&nbsp;
the restaurant where we had decided to meet.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:44.000,0:27:49.360
What happened during the meeting was beyond&nbsp;
my wildest imagination, but that is not</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:49.360,0:27:56.320
what we’re concerned with in this episode.
Later, I looked for references in literature</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:56.320,0:28:02.800
resembling this new state I had experienced.
There, I came to discover that it could be due</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:02.800,0:28:09.280
to the release of serotonin in my brain. It&nbsp;
was this hormone that had made me leap into</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:09.280,0:28:17.360
that state I had been in for three full hours.
I kept wondering if we could release serotonin</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:17.360,0:28:25.120
at will and started researching on the subject.
Ultimately, many years later, when I was working</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:25.120,0:28:32.720
in the discipline of chakras, I picked the lost&nbsp;
thread up again. I realized that the release</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:32.720,0:28:39.200
of serotonin was an integral part of opening the&nbsp;
crown chakra through skeletal guided meditation.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:39.200,0:28:46.160
Our body is a storehouse of all kinds of possible&nbsp;
miracles whether you categorize them under the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:46.160,0:28:52.400
materialistic or vitalistic approach.
Why don’t we unearth them and</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:52.400,0:28:59.200
make them an integral part of our life?

Welcome back to the 19th episode of Skeletal Leap: A Living Adventure!



Today’s episode titled “Pure Healing Energy: Kundalini Energy Vs Bioenergetics!” will tell you about bioenergetics vs kundalini and which one of the two passes to be the energy that creates life.



How do materialists look at energy? They study biological energy as ’bioenergetics



Vitalists call it Kundalini and its rise from the coccyx to the crown chakra is called Kundalini awakening.





According to the Chakra system, when chakras are opened along the length of Sushumna, Kundalini gets awakened and rises up to the head.



The same process, when described in materialistic terms, is the flow of biological energy in the organ cells served by the vagus nerve. As a two-way dialogue between the gut and the brain through the vagus nerve gets re-established, energy flow gets regularized.



SKELETAL LEAP, the mind body connection for mind and body healing, is a giant leap that our skeleton can take through the way it postures its joints.



I had stumbled upon this miracle many years ago, coincidentally

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">You will find here:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">- The historical context of materialism and vitalism, featuring insights from thinkers like René Descartes and Charles Darwin.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">- Personal stories that illustrate the unexpected intersections of these approaches in real-life situations.</p>

Was he a materialist or a vitalist?
Almost every single person is a</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:07.040,0:00:25.680
complex integration of both these approaches.

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:34.240,0:00:41.760
Today’s episode will tell you about&nbsp;
materialistic vs vitalistic approaches to life.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:41.760,0:00:47.840
As early as I came to my senses,&nbsp;
I found myself wondering.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:47.840,0:00:56.240
I remember the little kid that I was, wondering&nbsp;
who he was or even what he was. It was like a</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:56.240,0:01:04.480
third person wondering about my self, the self&nbsp;
that I thought I was. I also wondered if stones</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:04.480,0:01:13.520
could do the same. I was told they could not.
Today, I comprehend it as something very unique.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:13.520,0:01:20.960
It was the awareness of being aware. I also&nbsp;
wondered if animals could do the same. No</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:20.960,0:01:27.360
one could tell me anything about this for&nbsp;
sure. I wished I could turn into a cat,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:27.360,0:01:34.000
even if only for a moment, to know&nbsp;
the answer. But that was not to be.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:34.000,0:01:39.040
Later, I tried to satiate my curiosity&nbsp;
from the stores of knowledge, i.e.,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:39.040,0:01:46.880
books. Those were the days when the worldwide&nbsp;
web hadn’t yet come into existence. So I devoured</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:46.880,0:01:52.480
anything and everything that I could&nbsp;
get my hands on regarding the subject.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:52.480,0:01:56.720
What I first came to know from there&nbsp;
about life were its characteristics13</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:56.720,0:02:02.080
in the living beings, such as:
Homeostasis meant regulating</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:02.080,0:02:07.760
their internal environment.
Organization meant being composed of one</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:07.760,0:02:15.440
or more of the basic units of life called cells.
Metabolism meant decomposing chemicals turning</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:15.440,0:02:23.840
them to energy for cells to maintain life.&nbsp;
Growth meant increasing in size in all its parts.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:23.840,0:02:28.800
Adaptation meant evolving to adapt&nbsp;
with the changing environment.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:28.800,0:02:34.080
Response to Stimuli meant moving&nbsp;
for safety and other purposes.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:34.080,0:02:40.880
Reproduction meant ability to create&nbsp;
similar life as their offsprings.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:40.880,0:02:47.360
What I also came to know from there was that&nbsp;
people had two basic approaches to life. One sided</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:47.360,0:02:54.160
with materialism and the other, vitalism.
Materialism</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:54.160,0:03:01.760
Materialism opines that animals including humans&nbsp;
are extremely complex machines. They are so</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:01.760,0:03:08.960
complex that we haven’t yet been able to fully&nbsp;
understand this level of complexity. But we may,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:08.960,0:03:15.040
someday. Or we will, one day.
Rene Descartes was the first to</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:15.040,0:03:21.760
propose this hypothesis in the seventeenth&nbsp;
century. Later, in the nineteenth century,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:21.760,0:03:28.480
biologists discovered the cell theory&nbsp;
of life. It established, without doubt,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:28.480,0:03:35.920
that all living things were cellular in structure.
Then came Charles Darwin with his impeccable</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:35.920,0:03:42.880
theory of evolution. This striking theory&nbsp;
said that evolution took effect through an</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:42.880,0:03:48.640
automatic natural selection of genes&nbsp;
within those cells. And it was this</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:48.640,0:03:57.280
alone that enabled Homo sapiens to turn bipeds.
A little before Darwin, Jean-Baptiste Lamarck had</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:57.280,0:04:03.840
proposed that animals could pass on their acquired&nbsp;
characteristics to their offsprings. These were</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:03.840,0:04:09.840
the characteristics that they had acquired in&nbsp;
their lifetime through use or disuse of select</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:09.840,0:04:17.360
anatomical features, consciously, as a choice.
The two theories appeared to be in contrast</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:17.360,0:04:24.160
with each other. Darwin’s theory sided with&nbsp;
natural selection whereas Lamarck had sided</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:24.160,0:04:31.440
with conscious use or disuse responsible for&nbsp;
evolution. But Darwin never negated Lamarck’s</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:31.440,0:04:39.680
proposition even once in any of his works. He&nbsp;
rather supported it. This is simply indicative</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:39.680,0:04:46.080
of the weight in both their propositions.
In fact, the latest synthesis of human</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:46.080,0:04:51.440
evolution by the Baldwin Effect is a&nbsp;
reconciliation between the neo-Darwinian</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:51.440,0:04:58.240
and the neo-Lamarckian approaches. It shows&nbsp;
Lamarckian adaptive changes being followed</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:58.240,0:05:05.920
by Darwinian genetic changes without needing&nbsp;
to inherit them directly from the parents.</p>

Here is a quote by Ian Alexander…
“Lamarckian use and disuse compared to Darwinian</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:13.760,0:05:21.680
evolution, the Baldwin effect, and Waddington‘s&nbsp;
genetic assimilation… all the theories offer</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:21.680,0:05:29.840
explanations of how organisms respond to a changed&nbsp;
environment with adaptive inherited change.”</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:33.600,0:05:40.880
That was a bird’s eye-view of the materialistic&nbsp;
approach to the question of life and evolution.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:40.880,0:05:47.120
The other less scientifically accepted but&nbsp;
extremely widespread approach in people’s psyche</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:47.120,0:05:53.360
has been the vitalistic approach to life.
Vitalism</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:53.360,0:05:59.440
Vitalism opines that life comes to&nbsp;
existence only when matter imbibes life</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:59.440,0:06:07.760
energy that is cosmic in nature. This energy&nbsp;
is supposed to be non-physical in its nature.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:08.480,0:06:15.840
It has been given different names in different&nbsp;
cultures and different disciplines. It enjoyed</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:15.840,0:06:21.680
the status of a testable hypothesis in&nbsp;
the field of biology till as recently as</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:21.680,0:06:28.960
the nineteenth century. But despite several&nbsp;
experiments, vitalism has failed to provide</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:28.960,0:06:35.920
any substantial evidence to prove its verity&nbsp;
as yet. Hence it has been denigrated to the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:35.920,0:06:41.920
level of a superseded scientific theory&nbsp;
at best in the scientific community.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:54.080,0:06:59.200
The scientific community, despite quite&nbsp;
successfully dealing a lot with the question</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:59.200,0:07:06.960
of how matter came into existence, accepts it&nbsp;
as self-evident as matter is always visible to</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:06.960,0:07:15.120
us. There has never been a necessity to explain&nbsp;
its existence. Isn’t it the same way that life</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:15.120,0:07:22.560
is always visible to us too? Hence, why can’t&nbsp;
we start taking life as self-evident as well?</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:23.520,0:07:30.400
That is what vitalists say when they challenge&nbsp;
materialism to prove exactly what that complexity</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:30.400,0:07:39.360
is about. This question comes up when materialism&nbsp;
claims complexity in the material organization</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:39.360,0:07:48.000
as the precursor of life. But materialistic&nbsp;
science has no irrefutable answer to it yet.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:48.000,0:07:54.720
Vitalists claim that, in this context, science&nbsp;
has no moral ground to criticize vitalism as a</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:54.720,0:08:01.360
superseded scientific theory. They argue&nbsp;
that, by the same token, complexity could</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:01.360,0:08:08.800
also be called a superseded scientific theory.
Vitalism claims that non-physical life energy</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:08.800,0:08:13.440
can exist on its own without&nbsp;
being imbibed by the matter.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:14.160,0:08:22.800
It claims its omnipresence as cosmic energy.
In fact, vitalism has a very long history,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:22.800,0:08:29.680
especially in the field of alternative medicine.&nbsp;
The list is extremely long but the main proponent</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:29.680,0:08:39.200
systems as vitalistic medicine are homeopathy,&nbsp;
acupuncture, acupressure, aromatherapy,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:39.200,0:08:47.840
chiropractic, Chakra healing, Reiki, Pranic&nbsp;
healing, cupping therapy, energy healing,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:47.840,0:08:57.120
Ayurvedic medicine, hypnotherapy, naturopathy,&nbsp;
mind-body Interventions and quite a few more.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:57.120,0:09:03.600
Also, apart from the field of medicine,&nbsp;
vitalism has its roots dug really deep in</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:03.600,0:09:11.520
human culture in the form of religion,&nbsp;
spiritualism, morality, piety, yoga,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:11.520,0:09:20.480
meditation, rebirth, enlightenment, karma theory&nbsp;
and the most importantly the concept of theism.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:21.200,0:09:25.760
A majority of the world’s population&nbsp;
believes in almost all these aspects</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:25.760,0:09:32.480
as part of its culture. I don’t need to go&nbsp;
numerical here posting their percentages</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:32.480,0:09:39.600
but everyone knows they are quite high.
Then there are materialists in various spheres</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:39.600,0:09:48.400
who are also vitalists in their wider approach&nbsp;
to life. A certain Dr. Einstein comes to mind!</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:48.400,0:09:53.760
The Story of A Materialist&nbsp;
Who Was A Vitalist Deep Within</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:53.760,0:09:59.760
Let me tell you a story that took place in&nbsp;
the year 1981. I had just gotten married when</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:59.760,0:10:05.920
I met with an accident. It was a serious&nbsp;
accident that seemed to have severed one</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:05.920,0:10:11.760
of the tendons on my right biceps.
I was admitted in one of the best</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:11.760,0:10:18.000
government hospitals. As I was whiling&nbsp;
away my time sitting on the hospital bed,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:18.000,0:10:24.240
waiting to get my tendon stitched surgically, the&nbsp;
head of the orthopedic department came with his</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:24.240,0:10:30.880
students. He had planned to demonstrate&nbsp;
my condition as a case study to them.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:30.880,0:10:35.920
He started explaining how it was a&nbsp;
classical case of biceps severed at</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:35.920,0:10:43.520
its tendon at the elbow joint. I immediately&nbsp;
took objection. I said I felt it was at the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:43.520,0:10:51.760
shoulder joint and not at the elbow joint.
“Are you a doctor or I?” he challenged.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:51.760,0:10:58.960
I got offended by the tone of his voice. “Are&nbsp;
you suffering from a severed tendon or I?” I</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:58.960,0:11:03.280
retorted in the same tone.
He started muttering,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:03.280,0:11:10.080
trying to save face from his students.
“I know better than you do. So better keep</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:10.080,0:11:18.080
shut,” he came up with his next attack without&nbsp;
even being humble enough to listen to his patient.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:18.080,0:11:24.000
“I feel I have lost faith in you. So I wouldn’t&nbsp;
like to continue with my treatment here,” I</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:24.000,0:11:29.520
declared my decision then and there.
“It will be your responsibility alone</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:29.520,0:11:34.320
in case your problem gets worse&nbsp;
because of this,” he threatened me.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:34.960,0:11:40.080
“I know that and I will indemnify the&nbsp;
hospital when I sign my papers relieving</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:40.080,0:11:47.440
me from here,” I gave my final verdict.
After I got relieved, I immediately went</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:47.440,0:11:54.160
to another private orthopedic surgeon and told&nbsp;
him the entire story. He checked my arm very</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:54.160,0:12:01.840
cautiously for a long time. Then he silently came&nbsp;
up with the words, “You are right. My teacher is</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:01.840,0:12:10.000
wrong. It is severed on the shoulder joint.”
“So?” I asked.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:10.000,0:12:17.120
“Please don’t tell the orthopedic head that I said&nbsp;
so. In fact, he has been my teacher. Let him not</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:17.120,0:12:23.760
get hurt further on knowing I have taken up your&nbsp;
case. I can immediately start the operation if</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:23.760,0:12:31.680
you are ready,” he looked for my approval.
I immediately agreed, “Please go ahead.”</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:32.400,0:12:40.720
It was a long operation and I got my biceps&nbsp;
stitched with 22 sutures on my right shoulder.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:40.720,0:12:47.440
He discharged me saying that I would be able&nbsp;
to start lifting my arm in a month or so.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:47.440,0:12:55.280
I went back home and waited for a full month to&nbsp;
pass. But even after that, there seemed to be no</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:55.280,0:13:03.200
signs of me being able to lift my arm at all.
I rushed back to the doctor. As he checked</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:03.200,0:13:11.680
my arm again, his face went serious.&nbsp;
“You’ve been very unlucky,” he said.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:11.680,0:13:18.080
“Your tendon has nicely gotten attached&nbsp;
to your shoulder joint. But unluckily the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:18.080,0:13:26.560
musculocutaneous nerve has also got crushed in&nbsp;
the accident, I suspect,” he further explained.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:26.560,0:13:31.280
“So?” I asked again.
“I am referring your case</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:31.280,0:13:39.040
to the head of neurosurgery in the government&nbsp;
hospital famous for its neurosurgeons,” he said.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:39.040,0:13:44.160
The said hospital was just across the&nbsp;
road and I immediately met the head</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:44.160,0:13:50.160
of its neurosurgery department. He&nbsp;
checked my arm and confirmed that my</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:50.160,0:13:58.000
musculocutaneous nerve had, in fact, been crushed.
“As this nerve is located deep inside the arm,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:58.000,0:14:03.920
we generally don’t touch it. That is because&nbsp;
it is extremely tedious and the success rate</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:03.920,0:14:11.120
is not very high either. So we do it only if&nbsp;
it is a case of life and death or livelihood.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:11.120,0:14:18.240
You will have to learn living with it the way&nbsp;
it is right now,” he gave me his prognosis.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:18.240,0:14:23.840
“But doctor, it is a case of life&nbsp;
and death in my case too,” I said.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:23.840,0:14:30.880
“How come? What do you do?” he asked.
“I write for a living, which I will no more</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:30.880,0:14:38.000
be able to do with my left hand,” I replied.
“Why? You can always train your left hand to</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:38.000,0:14:43.600
be able to write as easily as with&nbsp;
your right hand!” he suggested me.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:43.600,0:14:49.840
“I am afraid waiting for it to get trained&nbsp;
will prove to be a big handicap in my career.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:49.840,0:14:55.840
I will be left with no alternative but to&nbsp;
commit suicide,” my tone sounded like a cool</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:55.840,0:15:03.760
determination to do what I had said I would.
The head suddenly went hyper-emotional, “No,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:03.760,0:15:10.000
don’t do that!” I could see tears&nbsp;
along with empathy in his eyes.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:10.000,0:15:16.160
“I’ll be compelled to!” I said&nbsp;
in a depressed tone of voice.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:16.160,0:15:21.520
“Okay, I am ready to take a chance on operating&nbsp;
on your nerve. At least it will be better than</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:21.520,0:15:29.840
dying. Just don’t commit suicide,” and he gave me&nbsp;
an appointment for an operation on the 26th day of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:29.840,0:15:37.680
the month and it was only the 1st that day.
I went back home and kept counting days for</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:37.680,0:15:44.400
the date of my operation to arrive. It was&nbsp;
going to be an operation conducted by one of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:44.400,0:15:50.880
the country’s most skilled neurosurgeons.&nbsp;
But it was another thing that the chances</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:50.880,0:15:58.400
of success were as low as hardly 50%.
The 26th day kept coming closer and</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:58.400,0:16:05.680
closer but at a snail’s pace. Every morning,&nbsp;
I would look at the calendar and count the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:05.680,0:16:12.400
days left for the appointment date all over.
I would also keep trying to lift my arm, the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:12.400,0:16:19.840
first thing to do each morning. It became a daily&nbsp;
routine as soon as I woke up. I did so despite no</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:19.840,0:16:28.240
hope for such attempts to be successful at all.
And then the miracle happened on the 26th day!</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:28.240,0:16:33.760
I woke up in the morning thinking I would&nbsp;
rush to the hospital for my operation. It</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:33.760,0:16:40.400
was then that I got the most pleasant shock&nbsp;
of my life. Out of habit, I tried to lift</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:40.400,0:16:48.640
my arm and could not believe what followed.
I was able to lift it well above my shoulder.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:48.640,0:16:54.160
I lifted it many times until I was&nbsp;
100% sure that I was actually able</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:54.160,0:17:02.000
to do so. I was successful every time!
And the first thing I did was to rush to</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:02.000,0:17:08.240
the hospital in order to show this miracle&nbsp;
to my surgeon. As he saw me lifting my arm</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:08.240,0:17:14.640
every time without any obstruction,&nbsp;
he looked to be extremely elated.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:14.640,0:17:19.360
I could again see the tears in his eyes&nbsp;
though, this time, they were the tears of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:19.360,0:17:27.280
happiness. He raised his hands toward the&nbsp;
sky and could only say, “God is great!”</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:27.280,0:17:35.440
I was excited to relive my life without carrying&nbsp;
a tag of a disabled man written on my body.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:35.440,0:17:42.320
Later, when I reassembled the entire scene in my&nbsp;
critical memory, I really wondered. I wondered how</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:42.320,0:17:49.600
a top ranking expert of a strictly materialistic&nbsp;
discipline had spontaneously reacted to what had</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:49.600,0:17:56.480
happened. It hadn’t ignited any spirit of&nbsp;
curiosity in his mind as to how it could</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:56.480,0:18:04.080
have happened. It had rather ignited a spirit&nbsp;
of gratitude for something his materialistic</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:04.080,0:18:11.680
discipline had never adhered to.
Was he a materialist or a vitalist?</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:11.680,0:18:17.120
Almost every single person is a complex&nbsp;
integration of both these approaches.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:17.120,0:18:25.040
This great neurosurgeon was no different.
There is a reason for it. There are quite a few</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:25.040,0:18:31.840
phenomena that the materialistic approach explains&nbsp;
and handles way better than the vitalistic</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:31.840,0:18:38.960
approach. But then, there are quite a few other&nbsp;
phenomena that the vitalistic approach claims it</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:38.960,0:18:46.880
can explain better. These are the ones that the&nbsp;
materialistic approach has no clue about yet.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:46.880,0:18:52.480
At this point, I urgently feel a real need&nbsp;
to tell you another story from my life.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:52.480,0:18:58.693
These are the stories that I can personally&nbsp;
authenticate to be true, word for word. And it</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:58.693,0:19:05.920
is their authenticity that makes them meaningful&nbsp;
vehicles to investigate into the nature of life.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:05.920,0:19:11.120
It is again a story of another&nbsp;
miracle that happened many years ago.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:11.120,0:19:17.200
The Story of An Instant Materialistic&nbsp;
Miracle That Happened to My Eyes</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:17.200,0:19:25.600
I still remember the date. It was on 12 December&nbsp;
2004 that I was standing near Sarojini Nagar</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:25.600,0:19:32.160
Market in Delhi. I was waiting for my wife to&nbsp;
join me for some shopping. She had gotten a</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:32.160,0:19:39.440
little late leaving me standing for a while.
It was then that the miracle happened.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:39.440,0:19:46.560
I stretched my body a little in order to come out&nbsp;
of my static inertia. It was the static inertia of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:46.560,0:19:53.280
keeping standing at one place for a long time.
As I looked around after this stretch,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:53.280,0:20:00.800
I got a tremendously pleasant shock of my life. I&nbsp;
was suddenly seeing everything in the field of my</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:00.800,0:20:09.120
vision, far and wide, absolutely crystal-clear.&nbsp;
I had never seen so clear in my life before.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:09.760,0:20:16.000
It was a pleasant shock because I had been&nbsp;
a myope since I came to my senses. I had</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:16.000,0:20:21.440
been provided with a pair of glasses. That&nbsp;
was the first pair of glasses that had been</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:21.440,0:20:28.720
given to me. They had a diopter number of&nbsp;
—5.00 in my left eye and 0.00 in my right.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:28.720,0:20:35.680
Since my right eye was fine, I had kept those&nbsp;
glasses in my drawer and forgotten about them.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:36.320,0:20:43.520
Days had kept passing by and I had forgotten&nbsp;
everything about my myopic eyesight. More so</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:43.520,0:20:48.880
because I had been able to see clear&nbsp;
with at least one of my eyes. It had</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:48.880,0:20:55.360
also been because I had never liked the&nbsp;
idea of wearing those crutches on my eyes.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:55.360,0:21:02.560
A few years later… by this time, I had completed&nbsp;
my engineering and gotten a job as a scientist</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:02.560,0:21:09.520
in the defense ministry. Before starting at&nbsp;
my job, I had to get my medical exam done at</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:09.520,0:21:16.400
a scheduled government hospital. When they&nbsp;
had tested my eyes there, it had again come</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:16.400,0:21:26.240
to me as a surprise. Both my eyes had needed&nbsp;
a corrective diopter number of strength —2.25.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:26.240,0:21:34.000
What a surprising change it had been! My right&nbsp;
eye (pun intended) had gone wrong from 0.00 to</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:34.000,0:21:44.320
—2.25. On the other hand, my left eye had improved&nbsp;
tremendously from —5.00 diopter to —2.25 on its</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:44.320,0:21:51.600
own. No theory in mainstream ophthalmology&nbsp;
had been able to explain this improvement!</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:51.600,0:22:00.560
Back (in fact, forward) to the clarity of&nbsp;
vision that I experienced on 12 December 2004!</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:00.560,0:22:07.600
I was seeing crystal clear in both eyes. It&nbsp;
was instantaneous! I wasn’t able to believe my</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:07.600,0:22:17.120
eyes. In fact, I didn’t blink for a long time.
And then I blinked. As my eyes opened again,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:17.120,0:22:23.760
they were back to the same old blurred&nbsp;
vision, far and wide, that I was used to.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:23.760,0:22:29.360
I felt disappointed. But I was not&nbsp;
the kind of a vitalist that would say,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:29.360,0:22:35.760
“God is great!” for my instantaneous&nbsp;
experience of clarity. Had I been one,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:35.760,0:22:42.880
I would have forgotten it forever after thanking&nbsp;
God for blessing me with a one-time miracle.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:42.880,0:22:50.080
No! Unlike the neurosurgeon who had been&nbsp;
so kind to me, I wouldn’t leave it at that.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:50.080,0:22:57.120
I didn’t know how I was able to see so clearly&nbsp;
just a minute ago. But I was curious enough to</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:57.120,0:23:05.600
want to know. My mind was totally clueless about&nbsp;
it. Keeping this in mind, I turned to my body</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:05.600,0:23:12.960
to repeat what it had done a few seconds ago.
Luckily, the body still had its memory of the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:12.960,0:23:19.680
maneuver it had done a few seconds ago, intact.&nbsp;
It rolled me back into the same clarity of vision</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:19.680,0:23:27.440
again. I tried with my mind to take notes of the&nbsp;
body maneuver but failed. The maneuver, though</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:27.440,0:23:35.600
instantaneous, was so complex that my mind wasn’t&nbsp;
able to understand it in clear steps of action.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:35.600,0:23:42.320
It was frustrating not to be able to know it&nbsp;
as a clear series of steps. At the same time,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:42.320,0:23:50.320
though, it was also exciting to experience&nbsp;
my body being able to jump into it at will.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:50.320,0:23:58.800
In the coming days, I kept playing this mind-body&nbsp;
game. It went on for two full years. That is how</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:58.800,0:24:05.440
long it took for my body to slowly and steadily&nbsp;
explain all the steps it had used in the maneuver,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:05.440,0:24:14.880
to my mind. One by one…by one! It was my&nbsp;
perseverance alone that got it done, though</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:14.880,0:24:21.680
it had taken two full years in the process. I had&nbsp;
to upgrade my mind to achieve this; something I</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:21.680,0:24:31.200
did through a lot of research. Research in any and&nbsp;
every discipline I suspected of having an answer.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:31.200,0:24:36.960
During my research, I studied mainstream&nbsp;
German ophthalmology which was unable to</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:36.960,0:24:45.200
explain how I was able to correct my own eyesight.
I then came across the works of Dr W.H.Bates,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:45.200,0:24:51.600
an American ophthalmologist. I learned that&nbsp;
Dr. Bates had discarded mainstream German</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:51.600,0:24:57.280
ophthalmology very early in his ophthalmology&nbsp;
practice as far as the process of accommodation</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:57.280,0:25:04.240
was concerned. In return, mainstream&nbsp;
German ophthalmology had ostracized him;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:04.240,0:25:11.280
something that stands till date. That had&nbsp;
never bothered Dr. Bates himself, though.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:11.280,0:25:16.800
He was a perfect materialist who created his&nbsp;
own version of the process of accommodation in</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:16.800,0:25:23.600
ophthalmology. German ophthalmology has&nbsp;
always maintained that it is impossible</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:23.600,0:25:31.360
to reverse eyesight once it has gone bad.&nbsp;
Bates, however, claimed otherwise. In fact,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:31.360,0:25:37.280
he claimed to have cured thousands of&nbsp;
myopic patients during his lifetime.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:37.280,0:25:42.400
Regardless, Bates’ method had a serious&nbsp;
shortcoming in that its results were not</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:42.400,0:25:49.280
instantaneous. It almost never showed an&nbsp;
instantaneous effect to its practitioners.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:49.280,0:25:55.760
They needed to have a great amount of&nbsp;
patience which very few of them really had.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:55.760,0:26:01.520
The reason was that Bates primarily targeted&nbsp;
the relaxation of mind rather than that of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:01.520,0:26:09.280
body. It was not a direct physical method. It was&nbsp;
rather a more circuitous one addressing the mind.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:09.280,0:26:15.200
It depended on the mind to convey the message&nbsp;
of relaxation to the eyes in an indirect way.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:15.200,0:26:21.360
And that was why it took so much time.
Moreover, mind is never a concrete and</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:21.360,0:26:27.760
always a vague entity. It may delude itself&nbsp;
into believing that it is in a relaxed state</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:27.760,0:26:33.680
even when it is not at all so. Therefore,&nbsp;
maneuvering the body is way more concrete</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:33.680,0:26:40.400
than maneuvering the mind. In the domain of the&nbsp;
body, one can be 100% sure that one is following</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:40.400,0:26:47.040
the exact procedure laid out in front of them.
Bates was more concerned with central fixation</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:47.040,0:26:50.960
of the mind in order to achieve&nbsp;
central fixation of the eyes.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:51.680,0:26:58.000
I was lucky enough to be able to turn it around.
I could focus my research on central fixation of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:58.000,0:27:03.040
the eyes via physical maneuvering&nbsp;
of the extra ocular muscles.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:03.040,0:27:09.440
Just as changes in the mind affect the body,&nbsp;
changes in the body affect the mind as well.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:09.440,0:27:15.760
That is why and how a skeletal procedure for&nbsp;
achieving relaxation is able to demonstrate</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:15.760,0:27:23.760
instantaneous effects in its small, little steps&nbsp;
of achievements. An instant feedback at each and</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:23.760,0:27:31.040
every step assures one that they are on the right&nbsp;
track. Imagine being able to read an extra line on</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:31.040,0:27:39.020
the Snellen chart in a few minutes if not seconds.&nbsp;
How much will that enthuse us to proceed further</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:39.020,0:27:45.040
with the meditative procedure of central fixation!
That is what Skeletal Leap has replaced the Bates</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:45.040,0:27:49.280
method with as far as vision&nbsp;
improvement is concerned.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:50.080,0:27:54.320
The Chakra Discipline
However, there was much</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:54.320,0:28:00.640
more to my research than this. I accidentally&nbsp;
came across an ancient Indian procedure of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:00.640,0:28:07.520
opening chakras in the body in order to achieve&nbsp;
a complete relaxation of the mind-body system.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:07.520,0:28:13.760
The problem with this system was that it was quite&nbsp;
esoteric in its structure. It was esoterically</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:13.760,0:28:20.720
enshrined deep inside multiple layers of secrecy&nbsp;
and an extremely complex mysterious vitalistic</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:20.720,0:28:27.840
framework. All that we can find on the Internet&nbsp;
about chakras is merely plagiarized copies of the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:27.840,0:28:35.840
same esoteric scriptures. Their so-called authors&nbsp;
are mostly equally devoid of personal experience</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:35.840,0:28:42.640
and hence a real insight into the discipline.
The Chakra discipline really helped me a lot</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:42.640,0:28:48.560
in my research. I was again very lucky in&nbsp;
being able to shift its central theme from</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:48.560,0:28:56.000
complexity to simplicity. I could turn its&nbsp;
vague and complex ‘spiritual’ procedures to</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:56.000,0:29:01.520
extremely simple skeletal procedures to&nbsp;
open chakras for mind-body relaxation.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:02.320,0:29:07.360
The best test of my being on the right&nbsp;
track was that these procedural shifts</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:07.360,0:29:13.680
produced their intended results exactly&nbsp;
as well as instantaneously. Instant</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:13.680,0:29:21.200
eyesight improvement was only one of them.
Here is what I ultimately came up with…</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:21.200,0:29:27.120
7 chakras, when they are closed, are anatomical&nbsp;
deformities in functional groups of internal</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:27.120,0:29:33.840
body organs. These are the groups of skeletal&nbsp;
joints along with muscles, nerves and blood</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:33.840,0:29:41.520
vessels attached to them. The vagus nerve is also&nbsp;
a part of them. They block Kundalini from moving</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:41.520,0:29:50.480
up through Sushumna to the brain in a streamlined&nbsp;
flow. As a result, it starts rotating in a circle,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:50.480,0:29:56.000
like a vortex, at the location of the&nbsp;
block rather than moving ahead straight.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:56.560,0:30:02.880
That is why the said blocks are called&nbsp;
chakras. The ultimate results of opening them,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:02.880,0:30:10.160
as predicted in the scriptures, are a gushing&nbsp;
surge of energy from the gut to the brain.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:10.160,0:30:16.560
It is called Kundalini Awakening in the language&nbsp;
of the Chakra discipline. And this is what</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:16.560,0:30:26.080
the most central theme of Skeletal Leap is.
Skeletal Leap: Materialistic Or Vitalistic?</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:26.080,0:30:31.680
In the system of Skeletal Leap, the skeletal&nbsp;
posturing corrections are called skeletal</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:31.680,0:30:37.760
meditations. This is because they are as&nbsp;
intense as they are simple when it comes</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:37.760,0:30:45.920
to making them one’s first nature 24 x 7 x&nbsp;</p>



<ol start="365" class="wp-block-list">
<li>It means being in a meditative state</li>
</ol>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:45.920,0:30:52.160
every single moment and not only for the&nbsp;
duration of sitting in meditation alone.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:52.160,0:30:59.440
That is why I call skeletal meditations the&nbsp;
mother of all mediation on earth. They are more</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:59.440,0:31:05.760
physical than spiritual, constantly ensuring&nbsp;
that we are undoubtedly on the right track.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:06.320,0:31:11.280
We simply cannot delude ourselves with&nbsp;
something absolutely non-meditative</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:11.280,0:31:18.400
while doing these skeletal meditations.
Siding with physical skeletal meditations doesn’t</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:18.400,0:31:24.720
mean that I ignore the mental and spiritual&nbsp;
realities. I only say that we should start our</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:24.720,0:31:31.120
journey into the unknown from the well-known&nbsp;
grounds of familiarity and clarity. That way,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:31.120,0:31:38.000
we are less prone to get lost in its labyrinth.
And the ultimate skeletal meditation has the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:38.000,0:31:44.160
power to take us to spiritual awakening.&nbsp;
In the language of skeletal meditation,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:44.160,0:31:51.440
it means freedom from all illusion. It is illusion&nbsp;
that blocks our sensitivity from sensing the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:51.440,0:31:58.080
free flow of energy in our mind-body system.
The physical approach is the surest and the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:58.080,0:32:07.040
shortest way to all salvation, be it physical,&nbsp;
mental or spiritual. And this is so, even if our</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:32:07.040,0:32:14.400
ultimate goal is spiritual alone. That is&nbsp;
what Skeletal Leap ultimately stands for.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Welcome back to the 18th episode of Skeletal Leap: A Living Adventure!</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Today’s episode titled “<strong>Science Vs Spirituality As Two Popular Approaches To Life!</strong>” will tell you about materialistic vs vitalistic approaches to life.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">As early as I came to my senses, I found myself wondering.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">I remember the little kid that I was, wondering who he was or even what he was.</p>





<p class="wp-block-paragraph">I also wondered if stones could do the same.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">I was told they could not.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">SKELETAL LEAP, the mind body connection for mind and body healing, is a giant leap that our <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skeleton" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">skeleton</a> can take through the way it postures its joints.</p>



<p class="p1 wp-block-paragraph">I had stumbled upon this miracle many years ago, coincidentally</p>







<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="science-vs-spirituality-as-two-popular-approaches-to-life-show-notes">Science Vs Spirituality As Two Popular Approaches To Life! - Show Notes</h2>





<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Welcome back to the latest episode of Skeletal Leap: A Living Adventure!</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">In today's episode titled “Science Vs Spirituality As Two Popular Approaches To Life!”, I address the two popular approaches to life that shape our understanding of existence.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">From my innocent musings of my childhood to the profound complexities of my entire life, I reflect on my journey of self-discovery and my quest to understand the essence of life. Through engaging real life stories, I navigate the complexities of materialism, which views living beings as intricate machines, and contrast it with vitalism, a belief in the cosmic life energy that animates matter.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">You will find here:</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:00.000,0:00:07.040
Was he a materialist or a vitalist?
Almost every single person is a</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:07.040,0:00:25.680
complex integration of both these approaches.
My name is Laadi Ojas. Welcome to “Skeletal</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:25.680,0:00:34.240
Leap: A Living Adventure”. Skeletal Leap&nbsp;
transforms one’s life into a personal heaven.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:34.240,0:00:41.760
Today’s episode will tell you about&nbsp;
materialistic vs vitalistic approaches to life.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:41.760,0:00:47.840
As early as I came to my senses,&nbsp;
I found myself wondering.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:47.840,0:00:56.240
I remember the little kid that I was, wondering&nbsp;
who he was or even what he was. It was like a</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:56.240,0:01:04.480
third person wondering about my self, the self&nbsp;
that I thought I was. I also wondered if stones</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:04.480,0:01:13.520
could do the same. I was told they could not.
Today, I comprehend it as something very unique.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:13.520,0:01:20.960
It was the awareness of being aware. I also&nbsp;
wondered if animals could do the same. No</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:20.960,0:01:27.360
one could tell me anything about this for&nbsp;
sure. I wished I could turn into a cat,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:27.360,0:01:34.000
even if only for a moment, to know&nbsp;
the answer. But that was not to be.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:34.000,0:01:39.040
Later, I tried to satiate my curiosity&nbsp;
from the stores of knowledge, i.e.,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:39.040,0:01:46.880
books. Those were the days when the worldwide&nbsp;
web hadn’t yet come into existence. So I devoured</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:46.880,0:01:52.480
anything and everything that I could&nbsp;
get my hands on regarding the subject.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:52.480,0:01:56.720
What I first came to know from there&nbsp;
about life were its characteristics13</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:56.720,0:02:02.080
in the living beings, such as:
Homeostasis meant regulating</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:02.080,0:02:07.760
their internal environment.
Organization meant being composed of one</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:07.760,0:02:15.440
or more of the basic units of life called cells.
Metabolism meant decomposing chemicals turning</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:15.440,0:02:23.840
them to energy for cells to maintain life.&nbsp;
Growth meant increasing in size in all its parts.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:23.840,0:02:28.800
Adaptation meant evolving to adapt&nbsp;
with the changing environment.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:28.800,0:02:34.080
Response to Stimuli meant moving&nbsp;
for safety and other purposes.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:34.080,0:02:40.880
Reproduction meant ability to create&nbsp;
similar life as their offsprings.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:40.880,0:02:47.360
What I also came to know from there was that&nbsp;
people had two basic approaches to life. One sided</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:47.360,0:02:54.160
with materialism and the other, vitalism.
Materialism</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:54.160,0:03:01.760
Materialism opines that animals including humans&nbsp;
are extremely complex machines. They are so</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:01.760,0:03:08.960
complex that we haven’t yet been able to fully&nbsp;
understand this level of complexity. But we may,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:08.960,0:03:15.040
someday. Or we will, one day.
Rene Descartes was the first to</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:15.040,0:03:21.760
propose this hypothesis in the seventeenth&nbsp;
century. Later, in the nineteenth century,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:21.760,0:03:28.480
biologists discovered the cell theory&nbsp;
of life. It established, without doubt,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:28.480,0:03:35.920
that all living things were cellular in structure.
Then came Charles Darwin with his impeccable</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:35.920,0:03:42.880
theory of evolution. This striking theory&nbsp;
said that evolution took effect through an</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:42.880,0:03:48.640
automatic natural selection of genes&nbsp;
within those cells. And it was this</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:48.640,0:03:57.280
alone that enabled Homo sapiens to turn bipeds.
A little before Darwin, Jean-Baptiste Lamarck had</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:57.280,0:04:03.840
proposed that animals could pass on their acquired&nbsp;
characteristics to their offsprings. These were</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:03.840,0:04:09.840
the characteristics that they had acquired in&nbsp;
their lifetime through use or disuse of select</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:09.840,0:04:17.360
anatomical features, consciously, as a choice.
The two theories appeared to be in contrast</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:17.360,0:04:24.160
with each other. Darwin’s theory sided with&nbsp;
natural selection whereas Lamarck had sided</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:24.160,0:04:31.440
with conscious use or disuse responsible for&nbsp;
evolution. But Darwin never negated Lamarck’s</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:31.440,0:04:39.680
proposition even once in any of his works. He&nbsp;
rather supported it. This is simply indicative</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:39.680,0:04:46.080
of the weight in both their propositions.
In fact, the latest synthesis of human</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:46.080,0:04:51.440
evolution by the Baldwin Effect is a&nbsp;
reconciliation between the neo-Darwinian</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:51.440,0:04:58.240
and the neo-Lamarckian approaches. It shows&nbsp;
Lamarckian adaptive changes being followed</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:58.240,0:05:05.920
by Darwinian genetic changes without needing&nbsp;
to inherit them directly from the parents.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:05.920,0:05:13.760
Here is a quote by Ian Alexander…
“Lamarckian use and disuse compared to Darwinian</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:13.760,0:05:21.680
evolution, the Baldwin effect, and Waddington‘s&nbsp;
genetic assimilation… all the theories offer</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:21.680,0:05:29.840
explanations of how organisms respond to a changed&nbsp;
environment with adaptive inherited change.”</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:29.840,0:05:33.600
Courtesy, Ian Alexander</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:33.600,0:05:40.880
That was a bird’s eye-view of the materialistic&nbsp;
approach to the question of life and evolution.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:40.880,0:05:47.120
The other less scientifically accepted but&nbsp;
extremely widespread approach in people’s psyche</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:47.120,0:05:53.360
has been the vitalistic approach to life.
Vitalism</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:53.360,0:05:59.440
Vitalism opines that life comes to&nbsp;
existence only when matter imbibes life</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:59.440,0:06:07.760
energy that is cosmic in nature. This energy&nbsp;
is supposed to be non-physical in its nature.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:08.480,0:06:15.840
It has been given different names in different&nbsp;
cultures and different disciplines. It enjoyed</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:15.840,0:06:21.680
the status of a testable hypothesis in&nbsp;
the field of biology till as recently as</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:21.680,0:06:28.960
the nineteenth century. But despite several&nbsp;
experiments, vitalism has failed to provide</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:28.960,0:06:35.920
any substantial evidence to prove its verity&nbsp;
as yet. Hence it has been denigrated to the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:35.920,0:06:41.920
level of a superseded scientific theory&nbsp;
at best in the scientific community.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:54.080,0:06:59.200
The scientific community, despite quite&nbsp;
successfully dealing a lot with the question</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:59.200,0:07:06.960
of how matter came into existence, accepts it&nbsp;
as self-evident as matter is always visible to</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:06.960,0:07:15.120
us. There has never been a necessity to explain&nbsp;
its existence. Isn’t it the same way that life</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:15.120,0:07:22.560
is always visible to us too? Hence, why can’t&nbsp;
we start taking life as self-evident as well?</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:23.520,0:07:30.400
That is what vitalists say when they challenge&nbsp;
materialism to prove exactly what that complexity</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:30.400,0:07:39.360
is about. This question comes up when materialism&nbsp;
claims complexity in the material organization</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:39.360,0:07:48.000
as the precursor of life. But materialistic&nbsp;
science has no irrefutable answer to it yet.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:48.000,0:07:54.720
Vitalists claim that, in this context, science&nbsp;
has no moral ground to criticize vitalism as a</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:54.720,0:08:01.360
superseded scientific theory. They argue&nbsp;
that, by the same token, complexity could</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:01.360,0:08:08.800
also be called a superseded scientific theory.
Vitalism claims that non-physical life energy</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:08.800,0:08:13.440
can exist on its own without&nbsp;
being imbibed by the matter.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:14.160,0:08:22.800
It claims its omnipresence as cosmic energy.
In fact, vitalism has a very long history,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:22.800,0:08:29.680
especially in the field of alternative medicine.&nbsp;
The list is extremely long but the main proponent</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:29.680,0:08:39.200
systems as vitalistic medicine are homeopathy,&nbsp;
acupuncture, acupressure, aromatherapy,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:39.200,0:08:47.840
chiropractic, Chakra healing, Reiki, Pranic&nbsp;
healing, cupping therapy, energy healing,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:47.840,0:08:57.120
Ayurvedic medicine, hypnotherapy, naturopathy,&nbsp;
mind-body Interventions and quite a few more.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:57.120,0:09:03.600
Also, apart from the field of medicine,&nbsp;
vitalism has its roots dug really deep in</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:03.600,0:09:11.520
human culture in the form of religion,&nbsp;
spiritualism, morality, piety, yoga,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:11.520,0:09:20.480
meditation, rebirth, enlightenment, karma theory&nbsp;
and the most importantly the concept of theism.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:21.200,0:09:25.760
A majority of the world’s population&nbsp;
believes in almost all these aspects</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:25.760,0:09:32.480
as part of its culture. I don’t need to go&nbsp;
numerical here posting their percentages</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:32.480,0:09:39.600
but everyone knows they are quite high.
Then there are materialists in various spheres</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:39.600,0:09:48.400
who are also vitalists in their wider approach&nbsp;
to life. A certain Dr. Einstein comes to mind!</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:48.400,0:09:53.760
The Story of A Materialist&nbsp;
Who Was A Vitalist Deep Within</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:53.760,0:09:59.760
Let me tell you a story that took place in&nbsp;
the year 1981. I had just gotten married when</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:59.760,0:10:05.920
I met with an accident. It was a serious&nbsp;
accident that seemed to have severed one</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:05.920,0:10:11.760
of the tendons on my right biceps.
I was admitted in one of the best</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:11.760,0:10:18.000
government hospitals. As I was whiling&nbsp;
away my time sitting on the hospital bed,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:18.000,0:10:24.240
waiting to get my tendon stitched surgically, the&nbsp;
head of the orthopedic department came with his</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:24.240,0:10:30.880
students. He had planned to demonstrate&nbsp;
my condition as a case study to them.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:30.880,0:10:35.920
He started explaining how it was a&nbsp;
classical case of biceps severed at</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:35.920,0:10:43.520
its tendon at the elbow joint. I immediately&nbsp;
took objection. I said I felt it was at the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:43.520,0:10:51.760
shoulder joint and not at the elbow joint.
“Are you a doctor or I?” he challenged.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:51.760,0:10:58.960
I got offended by the tone of his voice. “Are&nbsp;
you suffering from a severed tendon or I?” I</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:58.960,0:11:03.280
retorted in the same tone.
He started muttering,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:03.280,0:11:10.080
trying to save face from his students.
“I know better than you do. So better keep</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:10.080,0:11:18.080
shut,” he came up with his next attack without&nbsp;
even being humble enough to listen to his patient.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:18.080,0:11:24.000
“I feel I have lost faith in you. So I wouldn’t&nbsp;
like to continue with my treatment here,” I</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:24.000,0:11:29.520
declared my decision then and there.
“It will be your responsibility alone</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:29.520,0:11:34.320
in case your problem gets worse&nbsp;
because of this,” he threatened me.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:34.960,0:11:40.080
“I know that and I will indemnify the&nbsp;
hospital when I sign my papers relieving</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:40.080,0:11:47.440
me from here,” I gave my final verdict.
After I got relieved, I immediately went</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:47.440,0:11:54.160
to another private orthopedic surgeon and told&nbsp;
him the entire story. He checked my arm very</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:54.160,0:12:01.840
cautiously for a long time. Then he silently came&nbsp;
up with the words, “You are right. My teacher is</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:01.840,0:12:10.000
wrong. It is severed on the shoulder joint.”
“So?” I asked.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:10.000,0:12:17.120
“Please don’t tell the orthopedic head that I said&nbsp;
so. In fact, he has been my teacher. Let him not</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:17.120,0:12:23.760
get hurt further on knowing I have taken up your&nbsp;
case. I can immediately start the operation if</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:23.760,0:12:31.680
you are ready,” he looked for my approval.
I immediately agreed, “Please go ahead.”</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:32.400,0:12:40.720
It was a long operation and I got my biceps&nbsp;
stitched with 22 sutures on my right shoulder.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:40.720,0:12:47.440
He discharged me saying that I would be able&nbsp;
to start lifting my arm in a month or so.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:47.440,0:12:55.280
I went back home and waited for a full month to&nbsp;
pass. But even after that, there seemed to be no</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:55.280,0:13:03.200
signs of me being able to lift my arm at all.
I rushed back to the doctor. As he checked</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:03.200,0:13:11.680
my arm again, his face went serious.&nbsp;
“You’ve been very unlucky,” he said.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:11.680,0:13:18.080
“Your tendon has nicely gotten attached&nbsp;
to your shoulder joint. But unluckily the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:18.080,0:13:26.560
musculocutaneous nerve has also got crushed in&nbsp;
the accident, I suspect,” he further explained.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:26.560,0:13:31.280
“So?” I asked again.
“I am referring your case</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:31.280,0:13:39.040
to the head of neurosurgery in the government&nbsp;
hospital famous for its neurosurgeons,” he said.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:39.040,0:13:44.160
The said hospital was just across the&nbsp;
road and I immediately met the head</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:44.160,0:13:50.160
of its neurosurgery department. He&nbsp;
checked my arm and confirmed that my</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:50.160,0:13:58.000
musculocutaneous nerve had, in fact, been crushed.
“As this nerve is located deep inside the arm,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:58.000,0:14:03.920
we generally don’t touch it. That is because&nbsp;
it is extremely tedious and the success rate</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:03.920,0:14:11.120
is not very high either. So we do it only if&nbsp;
it is a case of life and death or livelihood.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:11.120,0:14:18.240
You will have to learn living with it the way&nbsp;
it is right now,” he gave me his prognosis.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:18.240,0:14:23.840
“But doctor, it is a case of life&nbsp;
and death in my case too,” I said.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:23.840,0:14:30.880
“How come? What do you do?” he asked.
“I write for a living, which I will no more</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:30.880,0:14:38.000
be able to do with my left hand,” I replied.
“Why? You can always train your left hand to</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:38.000,0:14:43.600
be able to write as easily as with&nbsp;
your right hand!” he suggested me.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:43.600,0:14:49.840
“I am afraid waiting for it to get trained&nbsp;
will prove to be a big handicap in my career.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:49.840,0:14:55.840
I will be left with no alternative but to&nbsp;
commit suicide,” my tone sounded like a cool</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:55.840,0:15:03.760
determination to do what I had said I would.
The head suddenly went hyper-emotional, “No,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:03.760,0:15:10.000
don’t do that!” I could see tears&nbsp;
along with empathy in his eyes.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:10.000,0:15:16.160
“I’ll be compelled to!” I said&nbsp;
in a depressed tone of voice.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:16.160,0:15:21.520
“Okay, I am ready to take a chance on operating&nbsp;
on your nerve. At least it will be better than</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:21.520,0:15:29.840
dying. Just don’t commit suicide,” and he gave me&nbsp;
an appointment for an operation on the 26th day of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:29.840,0:15:37.680
the month and it was only the 1st that day.
I went back home and kept counting days for</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:37.680,0:15:44.400
the date of my operation to arrive. It was&nbsp;
going to be an operation conducted by one of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:44.400,0:15:50.880
the country’s most skilled neurosurgeons.&nbsp;
But it was another thing that the chances</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:50.880,0:15:58.400
of success were as low as hardly 50%.
The 26th day kept coming closer and</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:58.400,0:16:05.680
closer but at a snail’s pace. Every morning,&nbsp;
I would look at the calendar and count the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:05.680,0:16:12.400
days left for the appointment date all over.
I would also keep trying to lift my arm, the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:12.400,0:16:19.840
first thing to do each morning. It became a daily&nbsp;
routine as soon as I woke up. I did so despite no</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:19.840,0:16:28.240
hope for such attempts to be successful at all.
And then the miracle happened on the 26th day!</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:28.240,0:16:33.760
I woke up in the morning thinking I would&nbsp;
rush to the hospital for my operation. It</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:33.760,0:16:40.400
was then that I got the most pleasant shock&nbsp;
of my life. Out of habit, I tried to lift</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:40.400,0:16:48.640
my arm and could not believe what followed.
I was able to lift it well above my shoulder.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:48.640,0:16:54.160
I lifted it many times until I was&nbsp;
100% sure that I was actually able</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:54.160,0:17:02.000
to do so. I was successful every time!
And the first thing I did was to rush to</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:02.000,0:17:08.240
the hospital in order to show this miracle&nbsp;
to my surgeon. As he saw me lifting my arm</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:08.240,0:17:14.640
every time without any obstruction,&nbsp;
he looked to be extremely elated.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:14.640,0:17:19.360
I could again see the tears in his eyes&nbsp;
though, this time, they were the tears of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:19.360,0:17:27.280
happiness. He raised his hands toward the&nbsp;
sky and could only say, “God is great!”</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:27.280,0:17:35.440
I was excited to relive my life without carrying&nbsp;
a tag of a disabled man written on my body.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:35.440,0:17:42.320
Later, when I reassembled the entire scene in my&nbsp;
critical memory, I really wondered. I wondered how</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:42.320,0:17:49.600
a top ranking expert of a strictly materialistic&nbsp;
discipline had spontaneously reacted to what had</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:49.600,0:17:56.480
happened. It hadn’t ignited any spirit of&nbsp;
curiosity in his mind as to how it could</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:56.480,0:18:04.080
have happened. It had rather ignited a spirit&nbsp;
of gratitude for something his materialistic</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:04.080,0:18:11.680
discipline had never adhered to.
Was he a materialist or a vitalist?</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:11.680,0:18:17.120
Almost every single person is a complex&nbsp;
integration of both these approaches.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:17.120,0:18:25.040
This great neurosurgeon was no different.
There is a reason for it. There are quite a few</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:25.040,0:18:31.840
phenomena that the materialistic approach explains&nbsp;
and handles way better than the vitalistic</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:31.840,0:18:38.960
approach. But then, there are quite a few other&nbsp;
phenomena that the vitalistic approach claims it</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:38.960,0:18:46.880
can explain better. These are the ones that the&nbsp;
materialistic approach has no clue about yet.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:46.880,0:18:52.480
At this point, I urgently feel a real need&nbsp;
to tell you another story from my life.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:52.480,0:18:58.693
These are the stories that I can personally&nbsp;
authenticate to be true, word for word. And it</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:58.693,0:19:05.920
is their authenticity that makes them meaningful&nbsp;
vehicles to investigate into the nature of life.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:05.920,0:19:11.120
It is again a story of another&nbsp;
miracle that happened many years ago.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:11.120,0:19:17.200
The Story of An Instant Materialistic&nbsp;
Miracle That Happened to My Eyes</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:17.200,0:19:25.600
I still remember the date. It was on 12 December&nbsp;
2004 that I was standing near Sarojini Nagar</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:25.600,0:19:32.160
Market in Delhi. I was waiting for my wife to&nbsp;
join me for some shopping. She had gotten a</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:32.160,0:19:39.440
little late leaving me standing for a while.
It was then that the miracle happened.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:39.440,0:19:46.560
I stretched my body a little in order to come out&nbsp;
of my static inertia. It was the static inertia of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:46.560,0:19:53.280
keeping standing at one place for a long time.
As I looked around after this stretch,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:53.280,0:20:00.800
I got a tremendously pleasant shock of my life. I&nbsp;
was suddenly seeing everything in the field of my</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:00.800,0:20:09.120
vision, far and wide, absolutely crystal-clear.&nbsp;
I had never seen so clear in my life before.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:09.760,0:20:16.000
It was a pleasant shock because I had been&nbsp;
a myope since I came to my senses. I had</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:16.000,0:20:21.440
been provided with a pair of glasses. That&nbsp;
was the first pair of glasses that had been</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:21.440,0:20:28.720
given to me. They had a diopter number of&nbsp;
—5.00 in my left eye and 0.00 in my right.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:28.720,0:20:35.680
Since my right eye was fine, I had kept those&nbsp;
glasses in my drawer and forgotten about them.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:36.320,0:20:43.520
Days had kept passing by and I had forgotten&nbsp;
everything about my myopic eyesight. More so</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:43.520,0:20:48.880
because I had been able to see clear&nbsp;
with at least one of my eyes. It had</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:48.880,0:20:55.360
also been because I had never liked the&nbsp;
idea of wearing those crutches on my eyes.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:55.360,0:21:02.560
A few years later… by this time, I had completed&nbsp;
my engineering and gotten a job as a scientist</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:02.560,0:21:09.520
in the defense ministry. Before starting at&nbsp;
my job, I had to get my medical exam done at</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:09.520,0:21:16.400
a scheduled government hospital. When they&nbsp;
had tested my eyes there, it had again come</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:16.400,0:21:26.240
to me as a surprise. Both my eyes had needed&nbsp;
a corrective diopter number of strength —2.25.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:26.240,0:21:34.000
What a surprising change it had been! My right&nbsp;
eye (pun intended) had gone wrong from 0.00 to</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:34.000,0:21:44.320
—2.25. On the other hand, my left eye had improved&nbsp;
tremendously from —5.00 diopter to —2.25 on its</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:44.320,0:21:51.600
own. No theory in mainstream ophthalmology&nbsp;
had been able to explain this improvement!</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:51.600,0:22:00.560
Back (in fact, forward) to the clarity of&nbsp;
vision that I experienced on 12 December 2004!</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:00.560,0:22:07.600
I was seeing crystal clear in both eyes. It&nbsp;
was instantaneous! I wasn’t able to believe my</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:07.600,0:22:17.120
eyes. In fact, I didn’t blink for a long time.
And then I blinked. As my eyes opened again,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:17.120,0:22:23.760
they were back to the same old blurred&nbsp;
vision, far and wide, that I was used to.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:23.760,0:22:29.360
I felt disappointed. But I was not&nbsp;
the kind of a vitalist that would say,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:29.360,0:22:35.760
“God is great!” for my instantaneous&nbsp;
experience of clarity. Had I been one,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:35.760,0:22:42.880
I would have forgotten it forever after thanking&nbsp;
God for blessing me with a one-time miracle.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:42.880,0:22:50.080
No! Unlike the neurosurgeon who had been&nbsp;
so kind to me, I wouldn’t leave it at that.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:50.080,0:22:57.120
I didn’t know how I was able to see so clearly&nbsp;
just a minute ago. But I was curious enough to</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:57.120,0:23:05.600
want to know. My mind was totally clueless about&nbsp;
it. Keeping this in mind, I turned to my body</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:05.600,0:23:12.960
to repeat what it had done a few seconds ago.
Luckily, the body still had its memory of the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:12.960,0:23:19.680
maneuver it had done a few seconds ago, intact.&nbsp;
It rolled me back into the same clarity of vision</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:19.680,0:23:27.440
again. I tried with my mind to take notes of the&nbsp;
body maneuver but failed. The maneuver, though</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:27.440,0:23:35.600
instantaneous, was so complex that my mind wasn’t&nbsp;
able to understand it in clear steps of action.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:35.600,0:23:42.320
It was frustrating not to be able to know it&nbsp;
as a clear series of steps. At the same time,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:42.320,0:23:50.320
though, it was also exciting to experience&nbsp;
my body being able to jump into it at will.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:50.320,0:23:58.800
In the coming days, I kept playing this mind-body&nbsp;
game. It went on for two full years. That is how</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:58.800,0:24:05.440
long it took for my body to slowly and steadily&nbsp;
explain all the steps it had used in the maneuver,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:05.440,0:24:14.880
to my mind. One by one…by one! It was my&nbsp;
perseverance alone that got it done, though</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:14.880,0:24:21.680
it had taken two full years in the process. I had&nbsp;
to upgrade my mind to achieve this; something I</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:21.680,0:24:31.200
did through a lot of research. Research in any and&nbsp;
every discipline I suspected of having an answer.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:31.200,0:24:36.960
During my research, I studied mainstream&nbsp;
German ophthalmology which was unable to</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:36.960,0:24:45.200
explain how I was able to correct my own eyesight.
I then came across the works of Dr W.H.Bates,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:45.200,0:24:51.600
an American ophthalmologist. I learned that&nbsp;
Dr. Bates had discarded mainstream German</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:51.600,0:24:57.280
ophthalmology very early in his ophthalmology&nbsp;
practice as far as the process of accommodation</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:57.280,0:25:04.240
was concerned. In return, mainstream&nbsp;
German ophthalmology had ostracized him;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:04.240,0:25:11.280
something that stands till date. That had&nbsp;
never bothered Dr. Bates himself, though.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:11.280,0:25:16.800
He was a perfect materialist who created his&nbsp;
own version of the process of accommodation in</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:16.800,0:25:23.600
ophthalmology. German ophthalmology has&nbsp;
always maintained that it is impossible</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:23.600,0:25:31.360
to reverse eyesight once it has gone bad.&nbsp;
Bates, however, claimed otherwise. In fact,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:31.360,0:25:37.280
he claimed to have cured thousands of&nbsp;
myopic patients during his lifetime.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:37.280,0:25:42.400
Regardless, Bates’ method had a serious&nbsp;
shortcoming in that its results were not</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:42.400,0:25:49.280
instantaneous. It almost never showed an&nbsp;
instantaneous effect to its practitioners.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:49.280,0:25:55.760
They needed to have a great amount of&nbsp;
patience which very few of them really had.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:55.760,0:26:01.520
The reason was that Bates primarily targeted&nbsp;
the relaxation of mind rather than that of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:01.520,0:26:09.280
body. It was not a direct physical method. It was&nbsp;
rather a more circuitous one addressing the mind.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:09.280,0:26:15.200
It depended on the mind to convey the message&nbsp;
of relaxation to the eyes in an indirect way.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:15.200,0:26:21.360
And that was why it took so much time.
Moreover, mind is never a concrete and</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:21.360,0:26:27.760
always a vague entity. It may delude itself&nbsp;
into believing that it is in a relaxed state</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:27.760,0:26:33.680
even when it is not at all so. Therefore,&nbsp;
maneuvering the body is way more concrete</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:33.680,0:26:40.400
than maneuvering the mind. In the domain of the&nbsp;
body, one can be 100% sure that one is following</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:40.400,0:26:47.040
the exact procedure laid out in front of them.
Bates was more concerned with central fixation</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:47.040,0:26:50.960
of the mind in order to achieve&nbsp;
central fixation of the eyes.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:51.680,0:26:58.000
I was lucky enough to be able to turn it around.
I could focus my research on central fixation of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:58.000,0:27:03.040
the eyes via physical maneuvering&nbsp;
of the extra ocular muscles.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:03.040,0:27:09.440
Just as changes in the mind affect the body,&nbsp;
changes in the body affect the mind as well.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:09.440,0:27:15.760
That is why and how a skeletal procedure for&nbsp;
achieving relaxation is able to demonstrate</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:15.760,0:27:23.760
instantaneous effects in its small, little steps&nbsp;
of achievements. An instant feedback at each and</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:23.760,0:27:31.040
every step assures one that they are on the right&nbsp;
track. Imagine being able to read an extra line on</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:31.040,0:27:39.020
the Snellen chart in a few minutes if not seconds.&nbsp;
How much will that enthuse us to proceed further</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:39.020,0:27:45.040
with the meditative procedure of central fixation!
That is what Skeletal Leap has replaced the Bates</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:45.040,0:27:49.280
method with as far as vision&nbsp;
improvement is concerned.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:50.080,0:27:54.320
The Chakra Discipline
However, there was much</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:54.320,0:28:00.640
more to my research than this. I accidentally&nbsp;
came across an ancient Indian procedure of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:00.640,0:28:07.520
opening chakras in the body in order to achieve&nbsp;
a complete relaxation of the mind-body system.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:07.520,0:28:13.760
The problem with this system was that it was quite&nbsp;
esoteric in its structure. It was esoterically</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:13.760,0:28:20.720
enshrined deep inside multiple layers of secrecy&nbsp;
and an extremely complex mysterious vitalistic</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:20.720,0:28:27.840
framework. All that we can find on the Internet&nbsp;
about chakras is merely plagiarized copies of the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:27.840,0:28:35.840
same esoteric scriptures. Their so-called authors&nbsp;
are mostly equally devoid of personal experience</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:35.840,0:28:42.640
and hence a real insight into the discipline.
The Chakra discipline really helped me a lot</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:42.640,0:28:48.560
in my research. I was again very lucky in&nbsp;
being able to shift its central theme from</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:48.560,0:28:56.000
complexity to simplicity. I could turn its&nbsp;
vague and complex ‘spiritual’ procedures to</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:56.000,0:29:01.520
extremely simple skeletal procedures to&nbsp;
open chakras for mind-body relaxation.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:02.320,0:29:07.360
The best test of my being on the right&nbsp;
track was that these procedural shifts</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:07.360,0:29:13.680
produced their intended results exactly&nbsp;
as well as instantaneously. Instant</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:13.680,0:29:21.200
eyesight improvement was only one of them.
Here is what I ultimately came up with…</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:21.200,0:29:27.120
7 chakras, when they are closed, are anatomical&nbsp;
deformities in functional groups of internal</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:27.120,0:29:33.840
body organs. These are the groups of skeletal&nbsp;
joints along with muscles, nerves and blood</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:33.840,0:29:41.520
vessels attached to them. The vagus nerve is also&nbsp;
a part of them. They block Kundalini from moving</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:41.520,0:29:50.480
up through Sushumna to the brain in a streamlined&nbsp;
flow. As a result, it starts rotating in a circle,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:50.480,0:29:56.000
like a vortex, at the location of the&nbsp;
block rather than moving ahead straight.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:56.560,0:30:02.880
That is why the said blocks are called&nbsp;
chakras. The ultimate results of opening them,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:02.880,0:30:10.160
as predicted in the scriptures, are a gushing&nbsp;
surge of energy from the gut to the brain.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:10.160,0:30:16.560
It is called Kundalini Awakening in the language&nbsp;
of the Chakra discipline. And this is what</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:16.560,0:30:26.080
the most central theme of Skeletal Leap is.
Skeletal Leap: Materialistic Or Vitalistic?</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:26.080,0:30:31.680
In the system of Skeletal Leap, the skeletal&nbsp;
posturing corrections are called skeletal</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:31.680,0:30:37.760
meditations. This is because they are as&nbsp;
intense as they are simple when it comes</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:37.760,0:30:45.920
to making them one’s first nature 24 x 7 x&nbsp;</p>



<ol start="365" class="wp-block-list">
<li>It means being in a meditative state</li>
</ol>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:45.920,0:30:52.160
every single moment and not only for the&nbsp;
duration of sitting in meditation alone.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:52.160,0:30:59.440
That is why I call skeletal meditations the&nbsp;
mother of all mediation on earth. They are more</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:59.440,0:31:05.760
physical than spiritual, constantly ensuring&nbsp;
that we are undoubtedly on the right track.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:06.320,0:31:11.280
We simply cannot delude ourselves with&nbsp;
something absolutely non-meditative</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:11.280,0:31:18.400
while doing these skeletal meditations.
Siding with physical skeletal meditations doesn’t</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:18.400,0:31:24.720
mean that I ignore the mental and spiritual&nbsp;
realities. I only say that we should start our</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:24.720,0:31:31.120
journey into the unknown from the well-known&nbsp;
grounds of familiarity and clarity. That way,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:31.120,0:31:38.000
we are less prone to get lost in its labyrinth.
And the ultimate skeletal meditation has the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:38.000,0:31:44.160
power to take us to spiritual awakening.&nbsp;
In the language of skeletal meditation,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:44.160,0:31:51.440
it means freedom from all illusion. It is illusion&nbsp;
that blocks our sensitivity from sensing the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:51.440,0:31:58.080
free flow of energy in our mind-body system.
The physical approach is the surest and the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:58.080,0:32:07.040
shortest way to all salvation, be it physical,&nbsp;
mental or spiritual. And this is so, even if our</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:32:07.040,0:32:14.400
ultimate goal is spiritual alone. That is&nbsp;
what Skeletal Leap ultimately stands for.</p>

Thanks for listening to this episode&nbsp;
of Skeletal Leap: A Living Adventure!</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:32:20.400,0:32:26.640
In the next episode, I will tell you&nbsp;
about bioenergetics vs kundalini and</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:32:26.640,0:32:32.160
which one of the two passes to&nbsp;
be the energy that creates life.</p>

Welcome back to the latest episode of Skeletal Leap: A Living Adventure!



In today's episode titled “Science Vs Spirituality As Two Popular Approaches To Life!”, I address the two popular approaches to life that shape our understanding of existence.



From my innocent musings of my childhood to the profound complexities of my entire life, I reflect on my journey of self-discovery and my quest to understand the essence of life. Through engaging real life stories, I navigate the complexities of materialism, which views living beings as intricate machines, and contrast it with vitalism, a belief in the cosmic life energy that animates matter.



You will find here:



- The historical context of materialism and vitalism, featuring insights from thinkers like René Descartes and Charles Darwin.



- The implications of these philosophies on our understanding of consciousness and existence.



- Personal stories that illustrate the unexpected intersections of these approaches in real-life situations.



- The vitalistic perspective's enduring influence on alternative medicine and cultural beliefs.

Almost every single person is a

complex integration of both these approaches.

materialistic vs vitalistic approaches to life.

As early as I came to my senses,&nbsp;
I found myself wondering.



0:00:47.840,0:00:56.240
I remember the little kid that I was, wondering&nbsp;
who he was or even what he was. It was like a



0:00:56.240,0:01:04.480
third person wondering about my self, the self&nbsp;
that I thought I was. I also wondered if stones



0:01:04.480,0:01:13.520
could do the same. I was told they could not.
Today, I comprehend it as something very unique.



0:01:13.520,0:01:20.960
It was the awareness of being aware. I also&nbsp;
wondered if animals could do the same. No



0:01:20.960,0:01:27.360
one could tell me anything about this for&nbsp;
sure. I wished I could turn into a cat,



0:01:27.360,0:01:34.000
even if only for a moment, to know&nbsp;
the answer. But that was not to be.



0:01:34.000,0:01:39.040

from the stores of knowledge, i.e.,

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Welcome back to the latest episode of Skeletal Leap: A Living Adventure!</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">In this thought-provoking episode, titled “At Times MIRACLE HEALING Manifests Spontaneously! Why?”, I explore the profound concept of miracles, particularly how they can lead to a personal heaven in life. I share personal anecdotes and insights on the nature of miracles as patterns that we often overlook in our daily lives.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">I dive deep into the transformative potential of what I call the “Skeletal Leap,” a revolutionary approach that promises to be a major evolution for humanity and a sovereign remedy for lifestyle diseases. I discuss the importance of changing our skeletal posture, a leap that our ancestors made millions of years ago, and its implications for our health today.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Listeners will discover:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">- The concept of “smize” and its connection to emotional expression.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">- The significance of central fixation in achieving optimal health and clarity.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">- How the vagus nerve plays a crucial role in our well-being.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">- The relationship between skeletal posture and overall health.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:01.040,0:00:07.280
Anyway, have you seen a miracle&nbsp;
happening in front of your eyes ever?</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:07.280,0:00:24.720
I have! At least one.
My name is Laadi Ojas. Welcome</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:24.720,0:00:34.000
to “Skeletal Leap: A Living Adventure”. Skeletal&nbsp;
Leap transforms one’s life into a personal heaven.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:34.000,0:00:41.520
Today’s episode will tell you about a miracle in&nbsp;
the making, creating a personal heaven in life.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:41.520,0:00:45.760
Miracles are patterns, just patterns.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:45.760,0:00:51.840
It is only that they are seen very rarely.
They surprise us because we haven’t yet</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:51.840,0:00:57.840
been accustomed to seeing them in the&nbsp;
normal course of perception. Still,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:57.840,0:01:04.960
there is not much difference between the&nbsp;
two. A pattern is a pattern is a pattern.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:04.960,0:01:13.280
I often wonder why normal patterns don’t surprise&nbsp;
us too. I think it is because we take them for</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:13.280,0:01:20.800
granted and hence they don’t ignite our curiosity&nbsp;
to question them ever. Taking a thing for granted</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:20.800,0:01:28.320
is a kind of belief that we often fall prey&nbsp;
to. Beliefs stop us from looking into the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:28.320,0:01:35.280
so-called normal patterns a little deeper.
Anyway, have you seen a miracle happening in</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:35.280,0:01:42.880
front of your eyes ever?
I have! At least one.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:42.880,0:01:50.400
Possibly the most promising and wide-reaching&nbsp;
of them all! In fact, the scope of this miracle</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:50.400,0:01:57.360
is so promising for our species that I&nbsp;
feel an urgent need to share it with you.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:57.360,0:02:03.840
It simply promises to be the next major&nbsp;
evolution of Homo sapiens. It also promises</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:03.840,0:02:09.760
to be a panacea for all lifestyle&nbsp;
diseases of humanity on this planet.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:09.760,0:02:15.120
Big claims! Huh?
I know. But the miracle is</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:15.120,0:02:21.840
equally big…potentially. It is big in the sense&nbsp;
that it hasn’t yet fully been explored for its</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:21.840,0:02:29.440
far-reaching potential. It is also to be assessed&nbsp;
in a widespread scientific manner under a strict</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:29.440,0:02:38.160
laboratory kind of testing. Its results, though,&nbsp;
are instantaneous and 100% every single time it is</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:38.160,0:02:46.800
performed. Regardless, it needs to be performed&nbsp;
more often than it is right now. Like with</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:46.800,0:02:55.120
breathing where we are always sure of filling our&nbsp;
lungs with oxygen every time we inhale. Once this</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:55.120,0:03:01.840
miracle becomes as commonly employed as breathing,&nbsp;
it will start being taken as the so-called normal</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:01.840,0:03:09.760
pattern. And then, no more laboratory&nbsp;
tests will ever be required to prove it.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:09.760,0:03:16.320
Well, so what exactly is this stuff&nbsp;
that I have been going on and on about?</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:16.320,0:03:22.320
I call it Skeletal Leap!
Skeletal Leap</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:22.320,0:03:28.480
It means taking the next leap in our&nbsp;
evolution by changing our skeletal posture,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:28.480,0:03:33.200
7 million years after our&nbsp;
predecessors adopted it first.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:33.840,0:03:41.760
That was when hominins had turned from quadrupeds&nbsp;
to bipeds for the first time. Bipedal evolution</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:41.760,0:03:49.360
started a new revolution on this planet.
It was a real miracle. No other animal had</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:49.360,0:03:56.480
ever stood up on its twos consciously before.&nbsp;
This step of theirs was certainly a big leap</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:56.480,0:04:02.640
that they had spontaneously taken though&nbsp;
in conscious phases. It might not have been</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:02.640,0:04:08.960
comfortable for them for a long time to come. But&nbsp;
it certainly gave them tremendous opportunities</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:08.960,0:04:16.320
for unlimited newer skills to master.
Had they not taken their first skeletal leap,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:16.320,0:04:24.560
we would never have been able to live a human life&nbsp;
like we are living today. Thanks to them for that!</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:24.560,0:04:32.000
Smize: Smiling with Eyes
More recently, I came across a newly coined</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:32.000,0:04:41.280
word in a different context that hurled me toward&nbsp;
a new Skeletal Leap. It is called ‘Smize’. Smize,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:41.280,0:04:49.040
a word coined by Tyra Banks, means smiling with&nbsp;
your eyes. The way smize came to me was a miracle</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:49.040,0:04:56.720
in itself. According to Macmillan Dictionary…
Even if you haven‘t yet come across the word</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:56.720,0:05:04.560
smize, the concept it represents will be familiar&nbsp;
to you. It is the warmth and positivity that a</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:04.560,0:05:12.560
person can instinctively convey by contorting the&nbsp;
muscles in and around their eyes. The verb smize</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:12.560,0:05:20.880
was coined in 2009 by US model and television&nbsp;
personality Tyra Banks. She had first used it</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:20.880,0:05:28.800
on reality TV series “America‘s Next Top&nbsp;
Model“. Banks used the term when teaching</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:28.800,0:05:37.200
contestants to bring expression to their eyes. It&nbsp;
was whilst keeping the rest of their face neutral,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:37.200,0:05:46.320
a customary practice in modeling. Though the word&nbsp;
is novel, the concept it represents is timeless.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:47.040,0:05:52.800
It had already been observed in Renaissance&nbsp;
portrait art through to the silent movies of</p>

the 1920s. That was the time when stars such as&nbsp;
Charlie Chaplin were the masters of the smize.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:02.240,0:06:10.800
Smizing is also linked to the 1960s concept of a&nbsp;
micro expression. It was a term popularized more</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:10.800,0:06:17.600
recently by US psychologist Paul Ekman. Paul&nbsp;
has been a pioneer in the study of emotions</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:17.600,0:06:26.000
and their relation to facial expressions. Ekman&nbsp;
describes micro expressions as involuntary facial</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:26.000,0:06:33.520
expressions, which occur within a fraction of&nbsp;
a second, often without our knowing. In fact,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:33.520,0:06:38.280
they cause&nbsp;‘emotional leakage‘,&nbsp;
i.e., expose our true feelings.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:42.720,0:06:48.880
So, Tyra had shot her arrow in 2009.
It might have kept moving straight</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:48.880,0:06:56.400
in the direction it was shot. It did so&nbsp;
until it hit me in 2022 in another part</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:56.400,0:07:05.200
of the planet in a totally different connotation.
Though it hit me hard, it didn’t hurt me at all.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:05.200,0:07:12.400
It rather invigorated me. Tyra might have coined&nbsp;
it flirtatiously in her world, but it hurled me</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:12.400,0:07:17.040
deep into Skeletal Leap.
How come?</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:17.040,0:07:23.360
I immediately spotted the miracle hidden&nbsp;
inside the very concept of the word.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:23.360,0:07:29.840
Those days, I was busy with my research in an&nbsp;
absolutely different discipline. It was only</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:29.840,0:07:36.240
later that I came to realize that both were not&nbsp;
really different in their basic essence. In fact,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:36.240,0:07:41.920
they were the two sides of the same coin.
You might wonder what it was that I was</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:41.920,0:07:49.280
doing. Well, I was finalizing the subtleties in&nbsp;
the physical procedure of achieving a mind-body</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:49.280,0:07:57.520
state called central fixation. It was central&nbsp;
fixation of the eyes, of the body and of the mind.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:58.240,0:08:04.160
I just took a temporary break from the&nbsp;
heavy stuff and set my eyes into a casual,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:04.160,0:08:11.760
intentional smize. I spontaneously discovered that&nbsp;
I had set my eyes in the exact mode of central</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:11.760,0:08:18.800
fixation of the eyes. And I immediately&nbsp;
spotted the similarity between the two.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:18.800,0:08:22.000
I was smizing.
I was smiling with</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:22.000,0:08:29.920
my eyes. It added a beautiful shine to them.
By now you might have started wondering what</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:29.920,0:08:35.600
central fixation means.
Central Fixation</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:35.600,0:08:41.360
Central fixation means maneuvering the eyes,&nbsp;
the body and the mind for doing whatever we are</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:41.360,0:08:48.160
doing in the best way possible.
Central Fixation Of The Eyes</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:48.160,0:08:56.640
Central fixation of the eyes means seeing what&nbsp;
our eyes are looking at most clearly. This</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:56.640,0:09:04.720
happens when the image of the object being seen&nbsp;
is created exactly at the fovea on the retina.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:04.720,0:09:11.040
Central Fixation Of The Body
Central fixation of the body means executing what</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:11.040,0:09:20.080
our body is doing, the best possible way. This&nbsp;
happens when the body centers itself at its core</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:20.720,0:09:28.800
(‘hara’ in Japanese), two inches below the navel.
Central Fixation Of The Mind</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:28.800,0:09:36.080
Central fixation of the mind means focusing on&nbsp;
what our brain is thinking most sharply. This</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:36.080,0:09:44.400
happens when the mind empties itself, enabling&nbsp;
the brain to take complete charge of thinking.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:44.400,0:09:48.800
All three of them have separate&nbsp;
skeletal posturing codes taking</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:48.800,0:09:56.000
one to the said states of central fixation.
Smize just follows one of these codes that</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:56.000,0:10:02.960
has to do with central fixation of the eyes.&nbsp;
But its beauty is that it is always present as</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:02.960,0:10:11.600
an essential part of the other two codes as well.&nbsp;
In fact, it automatically slips into those two.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:11.600,0:10:19.840
Whichever mode of central fixation we are in, we&nbsp;
always automatically start smiling with our eyes.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:19.840,0:10:27.440
The subject does merit further investigation.
And so do skeletal meditations, Smize being</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:27.440,0:10:34.080
just one of the many out there!
Almost 100 years ago, the famous</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:34.080,0:10:42.960
ophthalmologist Dr W.H. Bates first wrote about&nbsp;
central fixation. Here is a quote from him…</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:42.960,0:10:49.360
Not only do all errors of refraction and all&nbsp;
functional disturbances of the eye disappear</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:49.360,0:10:57.440
when it sees by central fixation, but many organic&nbsp;
conditions are relieved or cured. I am unable to</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:57.440,0:11:04.880
set any limits to its possibilities. I would&nbsp;
not have ventured to predict that glaucoma,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:04.880,0:11:12.480
incipient cataract and syphilitic iritis could be&nbsp;
cured by central fixation; but it is a fact that</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:12.480,0:11:20.000
these conditions have disappeared when central&nbsp;
fixation was attained. Relief was often obtained</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:20.000,0:11:28.800
in a few minutes, and, in rare cases, this relief&nbsp;
was permanent. Usually, however, a permanent cure</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:28.800,0:11:36.320
required more prolonged treatment. Inflammatory&nbsp;
conditions of all kinds, including inflammation of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:36.320,0:11:44.560
the cornea, iris, conjunctiva, the various coats&nbsp;
of the eyeball and even the optic nerve itself,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:44.560,0:11:50.960
have been benefited by central fixation&nbsp;
after other methods had failed. Infections,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:50.960,0:11:58.240
as well as diseases caused by protein poisoning&nbsp;
and the poisons of typhoid fever, influenza,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:58.240,0:12:05.600
syphilis and gonorrhoea, have also been benefited&nbsp;
by it. Even with a foreign body in the eye there</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:05.600,0:12:13.680
is no redness and no pain so long as central&nbsp;
fixation is retained. Since central fixation</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:13.680,0:12:20.000
is impossible without mental control, central&nbsp;
fixation of the eye means central fixation of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:20.000,0:12:27.120
the mind. It means, therefore, health in all&nbsp;
parts of the body, for all the operations of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:27.120,0:12:35.040
the physical mechanism depend upon the mind. Not&nbsp;
only the sight, but all the other senses—touch,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:35.040,0:12:43.680
taste, hearing and smell—are benefited by central&nbsp;
fixation. All the vital processes—digestion,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:43.680,0:12:51.200
assimilation, elimination, etc.—are improved&nbsp;
by it. The symptoms of functional and organic</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:51.200,0:12:59.920
diseases are relieved. The efficiency of the mind&nbsp;
is enormously increased. The benefits of central</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:59.920,0:13:07.840
fixation already observed are, in short, so great&nbsp;
that the subject merits further investigation.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:12.080,0:13:16.480
Skeletal Meditations
Skeletal meditations</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:16.480,0:13:22.720
are physical meditations concerned with posturing&nbsp;
skeletal joints the way they ideally evolved to be</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:22.720,0:13:30.320
postured supporting bipedal evolution. These are&nbsp;
physical meditations aimed at achieving central</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:30.320,0:13:37.840
fixation as opposed to the mental ones presently&nbsp;
in vogue. They have a plus point in that,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:37.840,0:13:45.200
being a physical phenomenon, they are tangible&nbsp;
and direct enough to grasp and practice.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:45.200,0:13:53.040
Intangible phenomena can very easily go vague&nbsp;
and enter the zone of confusion and complexity.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:53.040,0:14:01.040
On the contrary, tangible phenomena can always be&nbsp;
measured and hence remain self-regulatory, always</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:01.040,0:14:08.080
keeping themselves well-defined. That is the&nbsp;
reason skeletal meditations are simple and direct</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:08.080,0:14:15.520
in their procedures and the results they achieve.
Skeletal meditations hold great promises when</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:15.520,0:14:23.040
executed through the three procedures of central&nbsp;
fixation, namely, central fixation of the eyes,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:23.040,0:14:28.560
central fixation of the body and&nbsp;
central fixation of the mind.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:28.560,0:14:38.000
In its entirety, I have named it Skeletal Leap.&nbsp;
I call it the mother of all meditations on earth.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:38.000,0:14:44.240
Skeletal Leap investigates the integration of&nbsp;
skeletal re-posturing with central fixation</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:44.240,0:14:50.400
to address various human concerns. It&nbsp;
works by maneuvering the skeleton to</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:50.400,0:14:57.600
achieve its ideal posture, equally in&nbsp;
its static as well as dynamic states.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:58.320,0:15:03.760
Evolutionarily speaking, the human&nbsp;
skeleton underwent an unprecedented</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:03.760,0:15:12.240
extent of transformation during bipedal evolution&nbsp;
in an extremely short prehistoric span of time.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:12.240,0:15:19.840
This transformation meant that our ancestors’&nbsp;
front legs turned free to eventually become hands.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:19.840,0:15:26.720
It gave them way more opportunities leading&nbsp;
them to innovate newer kinds of actions.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:26.720,0:15:32.880
They started mastering these newer actions&nbsp;
that no other animal on the planet could,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:32.880,0:15:38.880
through the entire history of evolution.
Such a transformation certainly required</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:38.880,0:15:43.120
newer skills as well.
The process of learning</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:43.120,0:15:50.000
newer skills might have started increasing the&nbsp;
sizes of their brains too. This can also be</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:50.000,0:15:56.240
construed as a new hypothesis to explain the&nbsp;
unprecedented growth of the human brain in a</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:56.240,0:16:03.520
short span of time…evolutionarily speaking.
An intelligent animal was in the process of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:03.520,0:16:10.320
evolving for the first time on the planet!&nbsp;
It certainly gave them a decisive edge over</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:10.320,0:16:17.680
their competitors on land and in water.
But it all came with a price tag they had</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:17.680,0:16:25.200
to pay for it, maybe unknowingly.
And it was not a one-time payment.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:25.200,0:16:32.880
We, their successors, are still paying that price&nbsp;
each and every day of our lives. Even after 7</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:32.880,0:16:40.480
million years of our first venture into it!
And the price was that this leap in evolution</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:40.480,0:16:47.520
turned the entire length of our torsos from&nbsp;
a horizontal orientation to a vertical one.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:47.520,0:16:53.840
When the torso was horizontally oriented,&nbsp;
it was supported on four legs. There were</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:53.840,0:17:00.640
almost no further pulls of gravity on it. As&nbsp;
it came to a vertical orientation, gravity</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:00.640,0:17:08.240
started pulling it down way more than before. It&nbsp;
started pulling the joints of our skeleton down,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:08.240,0:17:15.600
especially on its upper parts which swung into&nbsp;
the air without any solid support beneath.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:15.600,0:17:20.960
The main victims were the skull, the&nbsp;
shoulders, the backbone, the thoracic</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:20.960,0:17:28.160
diaphragm, the hips and the knees.
Also, as the brain further evolved,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:28.160,0:17:34.000
it gave birth to negative emotions along&nbsp;
with positive ones that joined hands with</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:34.000,0:17:42.240
gravity. They played an extra role in tucking&nbsp;
these pulled-down joints ‘in’, resulting in</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:42.240,0:17:49.680
contracting the muscles attached to them. All this&nbsp;
resulted in these joints staying pulled down and</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:49.680,0:17:57.760
tucked in rather than staying up and out.
Our skeleton got habitually postured in</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:57.760,0:18:04.960
this deformed state as opposed to its ideal&nbsp;
postural evolution. And we have been living</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:04.960,0:18:11.440
with the same deformed posture of the&nbsp;
skeleton every single day since then.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:11.440,0:18:16.880
The downward pulls and inward tucks are&nbsp;
inflicted on the rest of the skeleton</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:16.880,0:18:23.760
through its joints. These joints are the&nbsp;
points to which muscles are attached as well.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:24.480,0:18:31.200
These deformations forcibly contract or&nbsp;
unnecessarily stretch these muscles and keep</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:31.200,0:18:38.800
them so, beyond their natural state, perennially.
As a result, the said muscles get rigidified in</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:38.800,0:18:45.360
those forcibly contracted or unnecessarily&nbsp;
stretched lengths of their tissues.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:45.360,0:18:51.040
In case of perennial contraction, they no more&nbsp;
sit relaxed even when they are not supposed to</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:51.040,0:18:58.320
do any work. And vice versa - in case of&nbsp;
perennial stretch, they go lethargic even</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:58.320,0:19:05.200
when they are supposed to stay contracted. With&nbsp;
the passage of time, they habitually get stuck in</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:05.200,0:19:14.800
those unnatural stances. These unnatural stances&nbsp;
keep us lethargic as well as tired all day long.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:14.800,0:19:21.760
On top of it, they also have nerve endings and&nbsp;
blood vessel endings attached to them. As muscle</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:21.760,0:19:28.640
shapes get distorted, so do the nerves&nbsp;
and the blood vessels in their vicinity.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:28.640,0:19:34.480
The Vagus Nerve: Communication&nbsp;
between The Gut and The Brain</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:34.480,0:19:40.480
The vagus nerve, which is the biggest nerve in&nbsp;
the body, is the worst affected of them all.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:40.480,0:19:44.880
This tenth cranial nerve has very&nbsp;
many sensory and motor branches</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:44.880,0:19:51.040
going to many important internal organs.
It is designed to do the most important</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:51.040,0:19:57.360
job of establishing a dialogue between the&nbsp;
gut and the brain. But when it gets deformed</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:57.360,0:20:03.120
owing to the skeletal deformation, its&nbsp;
function gets seriously compromised.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:03.680,0:20:08.160
This is a good place to consider the two&nbsp;
major approaches that have informed the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:08.160,0:20:15.040
human endeavor to make sense of pretty much&nbsp;
anything - materialistic and vitalistic.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:15.040,0:20:21.280
As per the materialistic approach, the vagus&nbsp;
nerve is designed to establish an uninterrupted</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:21.280,0:20:28.640
communication between the gut and the brain. As&nbsp;
a result, it optimizes the flow of life energy,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:28.640,0:20:35.680
keeping us healthy and energetic.
Kundalini: The Life Energy</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:35.680,0:20:42.560
As per the vitalistic&nbsp;approach, this life energy&nbsp;
is called Kundalini&nbsp;in the ancient Chakra&nbsp;System</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:42.560,0:20:49.920
first originated in the Indian subcontinent. It&nbsp;
is designed to flow via the central nerve passing</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:49.920,0:20:57.680
through the spine, called Sushumna&nbsp;in Sanskrit&nbsp;
language. Sushumna is the non-physical harmonized</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:57.680,0:21:06.320
state of its constituent nerves, Ida and Pingala.&nbsp;
It is exactly like the so-called vagus nerve</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:06.320,0:21:14.400
actually comprising ventral vagus and dorsal vagus&nbsp;
in English as its real biological constituents.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:14.400,0:21:20.800
Lately, there has been a widespread debate&nbsp;
raging on a burning issue in Chakra parlance.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:20.800,0:21:25.920
The topic is whether Ida and Pingala&nbsp;
are the same nerves as ventral vagus and</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:25.920,0:21:32.880
dorsal vagus or not. And if they are same,&nbsp;
what is the equivalent of the non-physical</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:32.880,0:21:40.560
harmonized state Sushumna in vagus parlance.&nbsp;
The majority opinion stands in clear favor of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:40.560,0:21:47.600
their congruity.&nbsp;The parallel of Sushumna has&nbsp;
been conceived to be a harmonized state of the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:47.600,0:21:55.440
two constituent vagus nerves, ventral&nbsp;
vagus and dorsal vagus. This harmonized</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:55.440,0:22:02.880
state is simply known as a singular vagus nerve.
In my own personal experience, I found the surges</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:02.880,0:22:10.480
of the rising energy clearly belonging to the two&nbsp;
parlances interchangeably. I always sensed the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:10.480,0:22:17.200
rising energy of Kundalini in the Chakra parlance&nbsp;
as a sudden uninterrupted communication between</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:17.200,0:22:25.520
the gut and the brain initiated by a harmonized&nbsp;
vagus nerve. It energizes the base of the pelvis</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:25.520,0:22:33.200
with a sexual connotation. And exactly at the&nbsp;
same time, it energizes the top of the head</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:33.200,0:22:41.600
with a spiritual connotation emptying my mind.&nbsp;
The vagal tone goes up and visual perception</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:41.600,0:22:48.880
becomes extremely acute. I personally have&nbsp;
no doubt on the question of their congruity.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:48.880,0:22:55.200
Hence, I will be using the terms Sushumna Nadi&nbsp;
and vagus nerve interchangeably throughout</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:55.200,0:23:02.560
the podcast. It will help me integrate the&nbsp;
materialistic and the vitalistic approaches as one</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:02.560,0:23:09.600
single whole in the Chakra parlance. And it does&nbsp;
make sense to me that the truth lies somewhere</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:09.600,0:23:17.520
in between the two parlances…in no man’s land.
In order for Kundalini to flow through Sushumna</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:17.520,0:23:24.160
uninterrupted, it needs to be in its&nbsp;
original undeformed shape. But as we</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:24.160,0:23:31.280
have seen above, nerves also get deformed&nbsp;
with postural deformities of the skeleton.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:31.280,0:23:37.120
Hence Sushumna is not able to let Kundalini&nbsp;
efficiently flow uninterrupted through it</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:37.120,0:23:43.920
to the crown chakra. The flow of Kundalini&nbsp;
gets blocked on its way to rise up through</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:43.920,0:23:51.280
Sushumna. As per the materialistic approach, it&nbsp;
is quite parallel to the communication from gut</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:51.280,0:23:58.080
to brain via vagus nerve getting blocked. This&nbsp;
communication blockage is detrimental although</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:58.080,0:24:05.520
parts of it leak through as non-uniform trickles.
These non-uniform trickles are certainly not</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:05.520,0:24:12.880
sufficient to keep us healthily energetic enough&nbsp;
in our life. They, however, save us from turning</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:12.880,0:24:20.480
dead instantaneously. (It is quite logical.&nbsp;
The vitalistic approach toward life considers</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:20.480,0:24:28.160
Kundalini as the basic life energy instilling&nbsp;
life into matter. Hence an absolute absence of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:28.160,0:24:35.200
its flow through Sushumna is bound to kill the&nbsp;
organism instantly.) In fact, it holds good for</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:35.200,0:24:41.680
both explanatory approaches, the materialistic&nbsp;
approach and the vitalistic approach.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:41.680,0:24:46.720
With this lack of life energy or&nbsp;
neural communication in our system,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:46.720,0:24:54.000
we become prone to contracting many lifestyle&nbsp;
diseases. They affect our crucial internal</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:54.000,0:25:01.680
organs and their systems negatively not only&nbsp;
anatomically but physiologically as well. The</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:01.680,0:25:09.520
worst victims are our skeletal, nervous,&nbsp;
muscular, respiratory, endocrine, immune,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:09.520,0:25:16.160
cardiovascular, urinary, integumentary,&nbsp;
reproductive, and digestive systems.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:16.880,0:25:22.400
It ends up turning life into a painful&nbsp;
experience rather than a joyful excursion</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:22.400,0:25:30.880
on the planet. There is no fun living life with&nbsp;
an extremely limited amount of energy. It compels</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:30.880,0:25:38.320
us to participate in its activities miserly&nbsp;
even though we love doing them abundantly.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:38.320,0:25:45.120
Living an abundant life is the real fun of&nbsp;
life. We need abundance of energy to enjoy</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:45.120,0:25:53.360
the abundance of gifts life has in store for us.
As per the vitalistic approach, we need a full</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:53.360,0:26:00.320
flow of Kundalini rising through Sushumna up to&nbsp;
the crown chakra. It imparts us with perennial</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:00.320,0:26:07.920
joy of perception and action in whatever we&nbsp;
do. And as per the materialistic approach,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:07.920,0:26:13.440
we do need a full neural communication&nbsp;
between the gut and the brain.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:13.440,0:26:18.320
Which points in Sushumna does&nbsp;
Kundalini get interrupted at?</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:18.320,0:26:24.800
Generally speaking, there are 7 of them between&nbsp;
the pelvis and the top of the head. They are</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:24.800,0:26:31.600
called chakras. They are like 7 gates which are&nbsp;
open when the 7 chakras are open. But if the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:31.600,0:26:39.120
chakras are partially or almost completely&nbsp;
closed, the gates in Sushumna follow suit.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:39.120,0:26:46.400
Chakras: Blocking The Flow of Energy
What are chakras?</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:46.400,0:26:52.080
The word chakra literally means&nbsp;
a wheel in the shape of a circle.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:52.080,0:26:57.920
Chakras, when they are closed, are anatomical&nbsp;
deformities in functional groups of internal</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:57.920,0:27:05.040
body organs. These are the groups of skeletal&nbsp;
joints along with muscles, nerves and blood</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:05.040,0:27:13.680
vessels attached to them. The vagus nerve is also&nbsp;
a major part of them. In the Chakra parlance,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:13.680,0:27:18.960
they block Kundalini from moving up through&nbsp;
Sushumna to the crown chakra in a streamlined</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:18.960,0:27:25.120
flow. As a result, it starts rotating in&nbsp;
a circle, like a vortex, at the location</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:25.120,0:27:34.160
of the block rather than moving straight ahead.&nbsp;
That is why the said blocks are called chakras.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:34.160,0:27:39.280
Open chakras have no deformities and no&nbsp;
blocks in the way of Kundalini rising</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:39.280,0:27:46.080
up through Sushumna to the crown chakra. In&nbsp;
fact, when open, they don’t even exist and,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:46.080,0:27:51.920
therefore, it has been my contention that they&nbsp;
shouldn’t even be called chakras at those points.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:52.640,0:27:58.960
The above definitions of closed and open chakras&nbsp;
are not stereotypical definitions like the ones</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:58.960,0:28:06.880
showing up all over the Internet. Such definitions&nbsp;
keep blowing the same old trumpet. They define</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:06.880,0:28:15.440
chakras as the centers of energy. Nothing can&nbsp;
be farther from the truth. Chakras are chakras,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:15.440,0:28:22.800
only when they are closed. Open chakras are&nbsp;
no chakras at all. So, chakras only exist as</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:22.800,0:28:28.880
villains and there is no version of them that&nbsp;
is a hero. And we should take care to paint</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:28.880,0:28:34.960
them in their correct perspective.
My definitions above are, in fact,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:34.960,0:28:43.280
the results of my firsthand experience with the&nbsp;
way these chakras behave and function. These are</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:43.280,0:28:49.680
also the result of my experience with Kundalini&nbsp;
flowing up uninterrupted through Sushumna.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:50.560,0:28:55.600
We, Homo sapiens, are the ones that have&nbsp;
collectively developed chakras (which</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:55.600,0:29:02.480
automatically means they are closed, remember!).
Now, the time has come for us to take the next</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:02.480,0:29:09.360
major leap in Homo sapiens evolution.
And we are an intelligent species now.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:09.360,0:29:14.080
Hence we can certainly activate this next&nbsp;
phase of evolution way better than we did</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:14.080,0:29:19.760
the first one 7 million years ago.
Every single Homo sapiens needs</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:19.760,0:29:26.240
to activate this next phase of evolution&nbsp;
individually. But for this to take place,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:26.240,0:29:33.440
each Home sapiens needs to have the practical&nbsp;
knowledge of how to activate it correctly. One</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:33.440,0:29:40.480
single slight mistake and the entire skeletal&nbsp;
maneuver may just go absolutely fruitless.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:41.200,0:29:46.320
This maneuver is a very subtle skeletal&nbsp;
re-posturing that makes it possible for us</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:46.320,0:29:54.480
to take the Skeletal Leap. That is why I call it&nbsp;
the mother of all meditations on earth. At times,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:54.480,0:30:00.400
even the difference of a few millimeters of&nbsp;
skeletal maneuver is sufficient enough to</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:00.400,0:30:09.040
create a totally new experience. The experience&nbsp;
can be that of perception, action or the flow of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:09.040,0:30:16.400
energy in the vicinity of the maneuver. These&nbsp;
slight, tiny maneuvers at specific skeletal</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:16.400,0:30:23.200
points make all the difference on earth. In&nbsp;
fact, it is a series of skeletal meditations</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:23.200,0:30:30.160
that needs to be done under proper guidance.
These skeletal guided meditations are purely</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:30.160,0:30:37.600
biological in their form and structure. But&nbsp;
they are real miracles! They have a miraculous</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:37.600,0:30:44.160
potential that allows Kundalini energy or neural&nbsp;
communication to start flowing uninterrupted</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:44.160,0:30:50.960
through the body with proper breathing. There are&nbsp;
various skeletal postural adjustments to be made</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:50.960,0:30:58.880
for various purposes. In chakra parlance, this&nbsp;
would be considered the ‘opening of chakras’.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:58.880,0:31:07.600
We need to make these skeletal meditations our&nbsp;
first nature 24x7x365. It is to be done by keeping</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:07.600,0:31:15.520
our skeletal posture ready and relaxed at all its&nbsp;
joints, together. Each skeletal meditation can</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:15.520,0:31:23.920
become our first nature leading us to a perennial&nbsp;
state of the said meditation. From that point on,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:23.920,0:31:30.080
we would not need to sit for that particular&nbsp;
skeletal meditation ever again. It would</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:30.080,0:31:37.600
effortlessly become a part and parcel of our very&nbsp;
existence. Each of these skeletal meditations,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:37.600,0:31:45.680
then, would essentially end up granting&nbsp;
us local salvations at its intended level.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:45.680,0:31:51.280
Going up along their hierarchical levels,&nbsp;
it would then become readily possible to</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:51.280,0:31:57.040
achieve holistic salvation as well.
Once there, we would only need to</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:57.040,0:32:02.960
ensure that we never fall back into&nbsp;
our old skeletal posture again.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:32:02.960,0:32:08.960
Guided Meditations
That is what Skeletal Leap will try to investigate</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:32:08.960,0:32:16.240
further ahead. We will come up with specific&nbsp;
insights into guided meditations that can achieve:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:32:16.240,0:32:20.960
Spiritual Awakening&nbsp;|&nbsp;Kundalini&nbsp;
Awakening&nbsp;|&nbsp;Chakra Opening&nbsp;|&nbsp;Instant</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:32:20.960,0:32:28.480
Eyesight Improvement&nbsp;|&nbsp;Hara (nabhi kendra or core)&nbsp;
Centering&nbsp;|&nbsp;Mindfulness through Emptying The Mind</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:32:28.480,0:32:32.720
Skeletal Leap’s guided meditations have&nbsp;
been designed to address pretty much</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:32:32.720,0:32:37.440
all concerns Homo sapiens have, as listed ahead:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:32:37.440,0:32:45.760
smize/ beautiful shining eyes, natural facelift,&nbsp;
dark circles under eyes, serotonin release,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:32:45.760,0:32:55.520
endorphin release, dopamine release, oxytocin&nbsp;
release, immune system boost, headache, back pain,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:32:55.520,0:33:07.040
hypertension, sleep, anxiety, healing, relaxation,&nbsp;
deep relaxation, chakra, stress, visualization,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:33:07.040,0:33:18.160
positive energy, calm, weight loss, yoga nidra,&nbsp;
depression, abundance, vipassana, letting go,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:33:18.160,0:33:27.760
love, confidence, grief, root chakra, sacral&nbsp;
chakra, solar plexus chakra, heart chakra, throat</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:33:27.760,0:33:36.640
chakra, third eye chakra, crown chakra, energy,&nbsp;
forgiveness, emotional healing, calming the mind,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:33:37.280,0:33:46.160
breathing, energy cleanse, progressive&nbsp;
muscle relaxation, stretching, and peace</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:33:46.160,0:33:50.160
The next Homo sapiens evolution has&nbsp;
an additional potential of becoming</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:33:50.160,0:33:53.680
a panacea for all kinds of lifestyle diseases.&nbsp;A</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:33:54.560,0:33:59.600
short list of lifestyle diseases that&nbsp;
Skeletal Leap tends to heal includes:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:33:59.600,0:34:05.680
stress, obesity, myopia, presbyopia, headaches,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:34:05.680,0:34:13.200
back pain, body aches, hypertension,&nbsp;
arthritis, spondylitis, neck pain,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:34:13.200,0:34:21.520
shoulder pain, personality disorders, heart&nbsp;
disease, stroke, sexual disorders, and more</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:34:22.160,0:34:27.120
We can evolve now, or else we keep suffering.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Welcome back to the 17th episode of Skeletal Leap: A Living Adventure!</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Today’s episode titled “<strong>At Times MIRACLE HEALING Manifests Spontaneously! Why?</strong>” will tell you about a miracle in the making, creating a personal heaven in life.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Have you seen a miracle happening in front of your eyes ever?</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">I have! At least one.&nbsp;</p>





<p class="wp-block-paragraph">In fact, the scope of this miracle is so promising for our species that I feel an urgent need to share it with you.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">SKELETAL LEAP, the mind body connection for mind and body healing, is a giant leap that our <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skeleton" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">skeleton</a> can take through the way it postures its joints.</p>



<p class="p1 wp-block-paragraph">I had stumbled upon this miracle many years ago, coincidentally</p>







<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="at-times-miracle-healing-manifests-spontaneously-why-show-notes">At Times MIRACLE HEALING Manifests Spontaneously! Why? - Show Notes</h2>





<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Welcome back to the latest episode of Skeletal Leap: A Living Adventure!</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">In this thought-provoking episode, titled “At Times MIRACLE HEALING Manifests Spontaneously! Why?”, I explore the profound concept of miracles, particularly how they can lead to a personal heaven in life. I share personal anecdotes and insights on the nature of miracles as patterns that we often overlook in our daily lives.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">I dive deep into the transformative potential of what I call the “Skeletal Leap,” a revolutionary approach that promises to be a major evolution for humanity and a sovereign remedy for lifestyle diseases. I discuss the importance of changing our skeletal posture, a leap that our ancestors made millions of years ago, and its implications for our health today.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Listeners will discover:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">- The concept of “smize” and its connection to emotional expression.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">- The significance of central fixation in achieving optimal health and clarity.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">- How the vagus nerve plays a crucial role in our well-being.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">- The relationship between skeletal posture and overall health.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:01.040,0:00:07.280
Anyway, have you seen a miracle&nbsp;
happening in front of your eyes ever?</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:07.280,0:00:24.720
I have! At least one.
My name is Laadi Ojas. Welcome</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:24.720,0:00:34.000
to “Skeletal Leap: A Living Adventure”. Skeletal&nbsp;
Leap transforms one’s life into a personal heaven.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:34.000,0:00:41.520
Today’s episode will tell you about a miracle in&nbsp;
the making, creating a personal heaven in life.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:41.520,0:00:45.760
Miracles are patterns, just patterns.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:45.760,0:00:51.840
It is only that they are seen very rarely.
They surprise us because we haven’t yet</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:51.840,0:00:57.840
been accustomed to seeing them in the&nbsp;
normal course of perception. Still,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:57.840,0:01:04.960
there is not much difference between the&nbsp;
two. A pattern is a pattern is a pattern.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:04.960,0:01:13.280
I often wonder why normal patterns don’t surprise&nbsp;
us too. I think it is because we take them for</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:13.280,0:01:20.800
granted and hence they don’t ignite our curiosity&nbsp;
to question them ever. Taking a thing for granted</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:20.800,0:01:28.320
is a kind of belief that we often fall prey&nbsp;
to. Beliefs stop us from looking into the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:28.320,0:01:35.280
so-called normal patterns a little deeper.
Anyway, have you seen a miracle happening in</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:35.280,0:01:42.880
front of your eyes ever?
I have! At least one.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:42.880,0:01:50.400
Possibly the most promising and wide-reaching&nbsp;
of them all! In fact, the scope of this miracle</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:50.400,0:01:57.360
is so promising for our species that I&nbsp;
feel an urgent need to share it with you.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:57.360,0:02:03.840
It simply promises to be the next major&nbsp;
evolution of Homo sapiens. It also promises</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:03.840,0:02:09.760
to be a panacea for all lifestyle&nbsp;
diseases of humanity on this planet.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:09.760,0:02:15.120
Big claims! Huh?
I know. But the miracle is</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:15.120,0:02:21.840
equally big…potentially. It is big in the sense&nbsp;
that it hasn’t yet fully been explored for its</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:21.840,0:02:29.440
far-reaching potential. It is also to be assessed&nbsp;
in a widespread scientific manner under a strict</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:29.440,0:02:38.160
laboratory kind of testing. Its results, though,&nbsp;
are instantaneous and 100% every single time it is</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:38.160,0:02:46.800
performed. Regardless, it needs to be performed&nbsp;
more often than it is right now. Like with</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:46.800,0:02:55.120
breathing where we are always sure of filling our&nbsp;
lungs with oxygen every time we inhale. Once this</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:55.120,0:03:01.840
miracle becomes as commonly employed as breathing,&nbsp;
it will start being taken as the so-called normal</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:01.840,0:03:09.760
pattern. And then, no more laboratory&nbsp;
tests will ever be required to prove it.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:09.760,0:03:16.320
Well, so what exactly is this stuff&nbsp;
that I have been going on and on about?</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:16.320,0:03:22.320
I call it Skeletal Leap!
Skeletal Leap</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:22.320,0:03:28.480
It means taking the next leap in our&nbsp;
evolution by changing our skeletal posture,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:28.480,0:03:33.200
7 million years after our&nbsp;
predecessors adopted it first.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:33.840,0:03:41.760
That was when hominins had turned from quadrupeds&nbsp;
to bipeds for the first time. Bipedal evolution</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:41.760,0:03:49.360
started a new revolution on this planet.
It was a real miracle. No other animal had</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:49.360,0:03:56.480
ever stood up on its twos consciously before.&nbsp;
This step of theirs was certainly a big leap</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:56.480,0:04:02.640
that they had spontaneously taken though&nbsp;
in conscious phases. It might not have been</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:02.640,0:04:08.960
comfortable for them for a long time to come. But&nbsp;
it certainly gave them tremendous opportunities</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:08.960,0:04:16.320
for unlimited newer skills to master.
Had they not taken their first skeletal leap,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:16.320,0:04:24.560
we would never have been able to live a human life&nbsp;
like we are living today. Thanks to them for that!</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:24.560,0:04:32.000
Smize: Smiling with Eyes
More recently, I came across a newly coined</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:32.000,0:04:41.280
word in a different context that hurled me toward&nbsp;
a new Skeletal Leap. It is called ‘Smize’. Smize,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:41.280,0:04:49.040
a word coined by Tyra Banks, means smiling with&nbsp;
your eyes. The way smize came to me was a miracle</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:49.040,0:04:56.720
in itself. According to Macmillan Dictionary…
Even if you haven‘t yet come across the word</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:56.720,0:05:04.560
smize, the concept it represents will be familiar&nbsp;
to you. It is the warmth and positivity that a</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:04.560,0:05:12.560
person can instinctively convey by contorting the&nbsp;
muscles in and around their eyes. The verb smize</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:12.560,0:05:20.880
was coined in 2009 by US model and television&nbsp;
personality Tyra Banks. She had first used it</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:20.880,0:05:28.800
on reality TV series “America‘s Next Top&nbsp;
Model“. Banks used the term when teaching</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:28.800,0:05:37.200
contestants to bring expression to their eyes. It&nbsp;
was whilst keeping the rest of their face neutral,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:37.200,0:05:46.320
a customary practice in modeling. Though the word&nbsp;
is novel, the concept it represents is timeless.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:47.040,0:05:52.800
It had already been observed in Renaissance&nbsp;
portrait art through to the silent movies of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:52.800,0:06:02.240
the 1920s. That was the time when stars such as&nbsp;
Charlie Chaplin were the masters of the smize.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:02.240,0:06:10.800
Smizing is also linked to the 1960s concept of a&nbsp;
micro expression. It was a term popularized more</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:10.800,0:06:17.600
recently by US psychologist Paul Ekman. Paul&nbsp;
has been a pioneer in the study of emotions</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:17.600,0:06:26.000
and their relation to facial expressions. Ekman&nbsp;
describes micro expressions as involuntary facial</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:26.000,0:06:33.520
expressions, which occur within a fraction of&nbsp;
a second, often without our knowing. In fact,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:33.520,0:06:38.280
they cause&nbsp;‘emotional leakage‘,&nbsp;
i.e., expose our true feelings.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:38.280,0:06:42.720</p>



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Courtesy, Macmillan Dictionary, 2021</li>
</ul>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:42.720,0:06:48.880
So, Tyra had shot her arrow in 2009.
It might have kept moving straight</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:48.880,0:06:56.400
in the direction it was shot. It did so&nbsp;
until it hit me in 2022 in another part</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:56.400,0:07:05.200
of the planet in a totally different connotation.
Though it hit me hard, it didn’t hurt me at all.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:05.200,0:07:12.400
It rather invigorated me. Tyra might have coined&nbsp;
it flirtatiously in her world, but it hurled me</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:12.400,0:07:17.040
deep into Skeletal Leap.
How come?</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:17.040,0:07:23.360
I immediately spotted the miracle hidden&nbsp;
inside the very concept of the word.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:23.360,0:07:29.840
Those days, I was busy with my research in an&nbsp;
absolutely different discipline. It was only</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:29.840,0:07:36.240
later that I came to realize that both were not&nbsp;
really different in their basic essence. In fact,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:36.240,0:07:41.920
they were the two sides of the same coin.
You might wonder what it was that I was</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:41.920,0:07:49.280
doing. Well, I was finalizing the subtleties in&nbsp;
the physical procedure of achieving a mind-body</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:49.280,0:07:57.520
state called central fixation. It was central&nbsp;
fixation of the eyes, of the body and of the mind.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:07:58.240,0:08:04.160
I just took a temporary break from the&nbsp;
heavy stuff and set my eyes into a casual,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:04.160,0:08:11.760
intentional smize. I spontaneously discovered that&nbsp;
I had set my eyes in the exact mode of central</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:11.760,0:08:18.800
fixation of the eyes. And I immediately&nbsp;
spotted the similarity between the two.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:18.800,0:08:22.000
I was smizing.
I was smiling with</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:22.000,0:08:29.920
my eyes. It added a beautiful shine to them.
By now you might have started wondering what</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:29.920,0:08:35.600
central fixation means.
Central Fixation</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:35.600,0:08:41.360
Central fixation means maneuvering the eyes,&nbsp;
the body and the mind for doing whatever we are</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:41.360,0:08:48.160
doing in the best way possible.
Central Fixation Of The Eyes</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:48.160,0:08:56.640
Central fixation of the eyes means seeing what&nbsp;
our eyes are looking at most clearly. This</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:08:56.640,0:09:04.720
happens when the image of the object being seen&nbsp;
is created exactly at the fovea on the retina.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:04.720,0:09:11.040
Central Fixation Of The Body
Central fixation of the body means executing what</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:11.040,0:09:20.080
our body is doing, the best possible way. This&nbsp;
happens when the body centers itself at its core</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:20.720,0:09:28.800
(‘hara’ in Japanese), two inches below the navel.
Central Fixation Of The Mind</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:28.800,0:09:36.080
Central fixation of the mind means focusing on&nbsp;
what our brain is thinking most sharply. This</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:36.080,0:09:44.400
happens when the mind empties itself, enabling&nbsp;
the brain to take complete charge of thinking.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:44.400,0:09:48.800
All three of them have separate&nbsp;
skeletal posturing codes taking</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:48.800,0:09:56.000
one to the said states of central fixation.
Smize just follows one of these codes that</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:09:56.000,0:10:02.960
has to do with central fixation of the eyes.&nbsp;
But its beauty is that it is always present as</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:02.960,0:10:11.600
an essential part of the other two codes as well.&nbsp;
In fact, it automatically slips into those two.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:11.600,0:10:19.840
Whichever mode of central fixation we are in, we&nbsp;
always automatically start smiling with our eyes.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:19.840,0:10:27.440
The subject does merit further investigation.
And so do skeletal meditations, Smize being</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:27.440,0:10:34.080
just one of the many out there!
Almost 100 years ago, the famous</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:34.080,0:10:42.960
ophthalmologist Dr W.H. Bates first wrote about&nbsp;
central fixation. Here is a quote from him…</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:42.960,0:10:49.360
Not only do all errors of refraction and all&nbsp;
functional disturbances of the eye disappear</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:49.360,0:10:57.440
when it sees by central fixation, but many organic&nbsp;
conditions are relieved or cured. I am unable to</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:10:57.440,0:11:04.880
set any limits to its possibilities. I would&nbsp;
not have ventured to predict that glaucoma,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:04.880,0:11:12.480
incipient cataract and syphilitic iritis could be&nbsp;
cured by central fixation; but it is a fact that</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:12.480,0:11:20.000
these conditions have disappeared when central&nbsp;
fixation was attained. Relief was often obtained</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:20.000,0:11:28.800
in a few minutes, and, in rare cases, this relief&nbsp;
was permanent. Usually, however, a permanent cure</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:28.800,0:11:36.320
required more prolonged treatment. Inflammatory&nbsp;
conditions of all kinds, including inflammation of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:36.320,0:11:44.560
the cornea, iris, conjunctiva, the various coats&nbsp;
of the eyeball and even the optic nerve itself,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:44.560,0:11:50.960
have been benefited by central fixation&nbsp;
after other methods had failed. Infections,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:50.960,0:11:58.240
as well as diseases caused by protein poisoning&nbsp;
and the poisons of typhoid fever, influenza,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:11:58.240,0:12:05.600
syphilis and gonorrhoea, have also been benefited&nbsp;
by it. Even with a foreign body in the eye there</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:05.600,0:12:13.680
is no redness and no pain so long as central&nbsp;
fixation is retained. Since central fixation</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:13.680,0:12:20.000
is impossible without mental control, central&nbsp;
fixation of the eye means central fixation of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:20.000,0:12:27.120
the mind. It means, therefore, health in all&nbsp;
parts of the body, for all the operations of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:27.120,0:12:35.040
the physical mechanism depend upon the mind. Not&nbsp;
only the sight, but all the other senses—touch,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:35.040,0:12:43.680
taste, hearing and smell—are benefited by central&nbsp;
fixation. All the vital processes—digestion,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:43.680,0:12:51.200
assimilation, elimination, etc.—are improved&nbsp;
by it. The symptoms of functional and organic</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:51.200,0:12:59.920
diseases are relieved. The efficiency of the mind&nbsp;
is enormously increased. The benefits of central</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:12:59.920,0:13:07.840
fixation already observed are, in short, so great&nbsp;
that the subject merits further investigation.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:12.080,0:13:16.480
Skeletal Meditations
Skeletal meditations</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:16.480,0:13:22.720
are physical meditations concerned with posturing&nbsp;
skeletal joints the way they ideally evolved to be</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:22.720,0:13:30.320
postured supporting bipedal evolution. These are&nbsp;
physical meditations aimed at achieving central</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:30.320,0:13:37.840
fixation as opposed to the mental ones presently&nbsp;
in vogue. They have a plus point in that,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:37.840,0:13:45.200
being a physical phenomenon, they are tangible&nbsp;
and direct enough to grasp and practice.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:45.200,0:13:53.040
Intangible phenomena can very easily go vague&nbsp;
and enter the zone of confusion and complexity.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:13:53.040,0:14:01.040
On the contrary, tangible phenomena can always be&nbsp;
measured and hence remain self-regulatory, always</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:01.040,0:14:08.080
keeping themselves well-defined. That is the&nbsp;
reason skeletal meditations are simple and direct</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:08.080,0:14:15.520
in their procedures and the results they achieve.
Skeletal meditations hold great promises when</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:15.520,0:14:23.040
executed through the three procedures of central&nbsp;
fixation, namely, central fixation of the eyes,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:23.040,0:14:28.560
central fixation of the body and&nbsp;
central fixation of the mind.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:28.560,0:14:38.000
In its entirety, I have named it Skeletal Leap.&nbsp;
I call it the mother of all meditations on earth.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:38.000,0:14:44.240
Skeletal Leap investigates the integration of&nbsp;
skeletal re-posturing with central fixation</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:44.240,0:14:50.400
to address various human concerns. It&nbsp;
works by maneuvering the skeleton to</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:50.400,0:14:57.600
achieve its ideal posture, equally in&nbsp;
its static as well as dynamic states.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:14:58.320,0:15:03.760
Evolutionarily speaking, the human&nbsp;
skeleton underwent an unprecedented</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:03.760,0:15:12.240
extent of transformation during bipedal evolution&nbsp;
in an extremely short prehistoric span of time.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:12.240,0:15:19.840
This transformation meant that our ancestors’&nbsp;
front legs turned free to eventually become hands.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:19.840,0:15:26.720
It gave them way more opportunities leading&nbsp;
them to innovate newer kinds of actions.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:26.720,0:15:32.880
They started mastering these newer actions&nbsp;
that no other animal on the planet could,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:32.880,0:15:38.880
through the entire history of evolution.
Such a transformation certainly required</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:38.880,0:15:43.120
newer skills as well.
The process of learning</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:43.120,0:15:50.000
newer skills might have started increasing the&nbsp;
sizes of their brains too. This can also be</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:50.000,0:15:56.240
construed as a new hypothesis to explain the&nbsp;
unprecedented growth of the human brain in a</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:15:56.240,0:16:03.520
short span of time…evolutionarily speaking.
An intelligent animal was in the process of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:03.520,0:16:10.320
evolving for the first time on the planet!&nbsp;
It certainly gave them a decisive edge over</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:10.320,0:16:17.680
their competitors on land and in water.
But it all came with a price tag they had</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:17.680,0:16:25.200
to pay for it, maybe unknowingly.
And it was not a one-time payment.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:25.200,0:16:32.880
We, their successors, are still paying that price&nbsp;
each and every day of our lives. Even after 7</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:32.880,0:16:40.480
million years of our first venture into it!
And the price was that this leap in evolution</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:40.480,0:16:47.520
turned the entire length of our torsos from&nbsp;
a horizontal orientation to a vertical one.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:47.520,0:16:53.840
When the torso was horizontally oriented,&nbsp;
it was supported on four legs. There were</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:16:53.840,0:17:00.640
almost no further pulls of gravity on it. As&nbsp;
it came to a vertical orientation, gravity</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:00.640,0:17:08.240
started pulling it down way more than before. It&nbsp;
started pulling the joints of our skeleton down,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:08.240,0:17:15.600
especially on its upper parts which swung into&nbsp;
the air without any solid support beneath.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:15.600,0:17:20.960
The main victims were the skull, the&nbsp;
shoulders, the backbone, the thoracic</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:20.960,0:17:28.160
diaphragm, the hips and the knees.
Also, as the brain further evolved,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:28.160,0:17:34.000
it gave birth to negative emotions along&nbsp;
with positive ones that joined hands with</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:34.000,0:17:42.240
gravity. They played an extra role in tucking&nbsp;
these pulled-down joints ‘in’, resulting in</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:42.240,0:17:49.680
contracting the muscles attached to them. All this&nbsp;
resulted in these joints staying pulled down and</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:49.680,0:17:57.760
tucked in rather than staying up and out.
Our skeleton got habitually postured in</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:17:57.760,0:18:04.960
this deformed state as opposed to its ideal&nbsp;
postural evolution. And we have been living</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:04.960,0:18:11.440
with the same deformed posture of the&nbsp;
skeleton every single day since then.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:11.440,0:18:16.880
The downward pulls and inward tucks are&nbsp;
inflicted on the rest of the skeleton</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:16.880,0:18:23.760
through its joints. These joints are the&nbsp;
points to which muscles are attached as well.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:24.480,0:18:31.200
These deformations forcibly contract or&nbsp;
unnecessarily stretch these muscles and keep</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:31.200,0:18:38.800
them so, beyond their natural state, perennially.
As a result, the said muscles get rigidified in</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:38.800,0:18:45.360
those forcibly contracted or unnecessarily&nbsp;
stretched lengths of their tissues.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:45.360,0:18:51.040
In case of perennial contraction, they no more&nbsp;
sit relaxed even when they are not supposed to</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:51.040,0:18:58.320
do any work. And vice versa - in case of&nbsp;
perennial stretch, they go lethargic even</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:18:58.320,0:19:05.200
when they are supposed to stay contracted. With&nbsp;
the passage of time, they habitually get stuck in</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:05.200,0:19:14.800
those unnatural stances. These unnatural stances&nbsp;
keep us lethargic as well as tired all day long.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:14.800,0:19:21.760
On top of it, they also have nerve endings and&nbsp;
blood vessel endings attached to them. As muscle</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:21.760,0:19:28.640
shapes get distorted, so do the nerves&nbsp;
and the blood vessels in their vicinity.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:28.640,0:19:34.480
The Vagus Nerve: Communication&nbsp;
between The Gut and The Brain</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:34.480,0:19:40.480
The vagus nerve, which is the biggest nerve in&nbsp;
the body, is the worst affected of them all.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:40.480,0:19:44.880
This tenth cranial nerve has very&nbsp;
many sensory and motor branches</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:44.880,0:19:51.040
going to many important internal organs.
It is designed to do the most important</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:51.040,0:19:57.360
job of establishing a dialogue between the&nbsp;
gut and the brain. But when it gets deformed</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:19:57.360,0:20:03.120
owing to the skeletal deformation, its&nbsp;
function gets seriously compromised.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:03.680,0:20:08.160
This is a good place to consider the two&nbsp;
major approaches that have informed the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:08.160,0:20:15.040
human endeavor to make sense of pretty much&nbsp;
anything - materialistic and vitalistic.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:15.040,0:20:21.280
As per the materialistic approach, the vagus&nbsp;
nerve is designed to establish an uninterrupted</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:21.280,0:20:28.640
communication between the gut and the brain. As&nbsp;
a result, it optimizes the flow of life energy,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:28.640,0:20:35.680
keeping us healthy and energetic.
Kundalini: The Life Energy</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:35.680,0:20:42.560
As per the vitalistic&nbsp;approach, this life energy&nbsp;
is called Kundalini&nbsp;in the ancient Chakra&nbsp;System</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:42.560,0:20:49.920
first originated in the Indian subcontinent. It&nbsp;
is designed to flow via the central nerve passing</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:49.920,0:20:57.680
through the spine, called Sushumna&nbsp;in Sanskrit&nbsp;
language. Sushumna is the non-physical harmonized</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:20:57.680,0:21:06.320
state of its constituent nerves, Ida and Pingala.&nbsp;
It is exactly like the so-called vagus nerve</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:06.320,0:21:14.400
actually comprising ventral vagus and dorsal vagus&nbsp;
in English as its real biological constituents.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:14.400,0:21:20.800
Lately, there has been a widespread debate&nbsp;
raging on a burning issue in Chakra parlance.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:20.800,0:21:25.920
The topic is whether Ida and Pingala&nbsp;
are the same nerves as ventral vagus and</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:25.920,0:21:32.880
dorsal vagus or not. And if they are same,&nbsp;
what is the equivalent of the non-physical</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:32.880,0:21:40.560
harmonized state Sushumna in vagus parlance.&nbsp;
The majority opinion stands in clear favor of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:40.560,0:21:47.600
their congruity.&nbsp;The parallel of Sushumna has&nbsp;
been conceived to be a harmonized state of the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:47.600,0:21:55.440
two constituent vagus nerves, ventral&nbsp;
vagus and dorsal vagus. This harmonized</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:21:55.440,0:22:02.880
state is simply known as a singular vagus nerve.
In my own personal experience, I found the surges</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:02.880,0:22:10.480
of the rising energy clearly belonging to the two&nbsp;
parlances interchangeably. I always sensed the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:10.480,0:22:17.200
rising energy of Kundalini in the Chakra parlance&nbsp;
as a sudden uninterrupted communication between</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:17.200,0:22:25.520
the gut and the brain initiated by a harmonized&nbsp;
vagus nerve. It energizes the base of the pelvis</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:25.520,0:22:33.200
with a sexual connotation. And exactly at the&nbsp;
same time, it energizes the top of the head</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:33.200,0:22:41.600
with a spiritual connotation emptying my mind.&nbsp;
The vagal tone goes up and visual perception</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:41.600,0:22:48.880
becomes extremely acute. I personally have&nbsp;
no doubt on the question of their congruity.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:48.880,0:22:55.200
Hence, I will be using the terms Sushumna Nadi&nbsp;
and vagus nerve interchangeably throughout</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:22:55.200,0:23:02.560
the podcast. It will help me integrate the&nbsp;
materialistic and the vitalistic approaches as one</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:02.560,0:23:09.600
single whole in the Chakra parlance. And it does&nbsp;
make sense to me that the truth lies somewhere</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:09.600,0:23:17.520
in between the two parlances…in no man’s land.
In order for Kundalini to flow through Sushumna</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:17.520,0:23:24.160
uninterrupted, it needs to be in its&nbsp;
original undeformed shape. But as we</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:24.160,0:23:31.280
have seen above, nerves also get deformed&nbsp;
with postural deformities of the skeleton.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:31.280,0:23:37.120
Hence Sushumna is not able to let Kundalini&nbsp;
efficiently flow uninterrupted through it</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:37.120,0:23:43.920
to the crown chakra. The flow of Kundalini&nbsp;
gets blocked on its way to rise up through</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:43.920,0:23:51.280
Sushumna. As per the materialistic approach, it&nbsp;
is quite parallel to the communication from gut</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:51.280,0:23:58.080
to brain via vagus nerve getting blocked. This&nbsp;
communication blockage is detrimental although</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:23:58.080,0:24:05.520
parts of it leak through as non-uniform trickles.
These non-uniform trickles are certainly not</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:05.520,0:24:12.880
sufficient to keep us healthily energetic enough&nbsp;
in our life. They, however, save us from turning</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:12.880,0:24:20.480
dead instantaneously. (It is quite logical.&nbsp;
The vitalistic approach toward life considers</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:20.480,0:24:28.160
Kundalini as the basic life energy instilling&nbsp;
life into matter. Hence an absolute absence of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:28.160,0:24:35.200
its flow through Sushumna is bound to kill the&nbsp;
organism instantly.) In fact, it holds good for</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:35.200,0:24:41.680
both explanatory approaches, the materialistic&nbsp;
approach and the vitalistic approach.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:41.680,0:24:46.720
With this lack of life energy or&nbsp;
neural communication in our system,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:46.720,0:24:54.000
we become prone to contracting many lifestyle&nbsp;
diseases. They affect our crucial internal</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:24:54.000,0:25:01.680
organs and their systems negatively not only&nbsp;
anatomically but physiologically as well. The</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:01.680,0:25:09.520
worst victims are our skeletal, nervous,&nbsp;
muscular, respiratory, endocrine, immune,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:09.520,0:25:16.160
cardiovascular, urinary, integumentary,&nbsp;
reproductive, and digestive systems.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:16.880,0:25:22.400
It ends up turning life into a painful&nbsp;
experience rather than a joyful excursion</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:22.400,0:25:30.880
on the planet. There is no fun living life with&nbsp;
an extremely limited amount of energy. It compels</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:30.880,0:25:38.320
us to participate in its activities miserly&nbsp;
even though we love doing them abundantly.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:38.320,0:25:45.120
Living an abundant life is the real fun of&nbsp;
life. We need abundance of energy to enjoy</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:45.120,0:25:53.360
the abundance of gifts life has in store for us.
As per the vitalistic approach, we need a full</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:25:53.360,0:26:00.320
flow of Kundalini rising through Sushumna up to&nbsp;
the crown chakra. It imparts us with perennial</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:00.320,0:26:07.920
joy of perception and action in whatever we&nbsp;
do. And as per the materialistic approach,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:07.920,0:26:13.440
we do need a full neural communication&nbsp;
between the gut and the brain.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:13.440,0:26:18.320
Which points in Sushumna does&nbsp;
Kundalini get interrupted at?</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:18.320,0:26:24.800
Generally speaking, there are 7 of them between&nbsp;
the pelvis and the top of the head. They are</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:24.800,0:26:31.600
called chakras. They are like 7 gates which are&nbsp;
open when the 7 chakras are open. But if the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:31.600,0:26:39.120
chakras are partially or almost completely&nbsp;
closed, the gates in Sushumna follow suit.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:39.120,0:26:46.400
Chakras: Blocking The Flow of Energy
What are chakras?</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:46.400,0:26:52.080
The word chakra literally means&nbsp;
a wheel in the shape of a circle.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:52.080,0:26:57.920
Chakras, when they are closed, are anatomical&nbsp;
deformities in functional groups of internal</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:26:57.920,0:27:05.040
body organs. These are the groups of skeletal&nbsp;
joints along with muscles, nerves and blood</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:05.040,0:27:13.680
vessels attached to them. The vagus nerve is also&nbsp;
a major part of them. In the Chakra parlance,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:13.680,0:27:18.960
they block Kundalini from moving up through&nbsp;
Sushumna to the crown chakra in a streamlined</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:18.960,0:27:25.120
flow. As a result, it starts rotating in&nbsp;
a circle, like a vortex, at the location</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:25.120,0:27:34.160
of the block rather than moving straight ahead.&nbsp;
That is why the said blocks are called chakras.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:34.160,0:27:39.280
Open chakras have no deformities and no&nbsp;
blocks in the way of Kundalini rising</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:39.280,0:27:46.080
up through Sushumna to the crown chakra. In&nbsp;
fact, when open, they don’t even exist and,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:46.080,0:27:51.920
therefore, it has been my contention that they&nbsp;
shouldn’t even be called chakras at those points.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:52.640,0:27:58.960
The above definitions of closed and open chakras&nbsp;
are not stereotypical definitions like the ones</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:27:58.960,0:28:06.880
showing up all over the Internet. Such definitions&nbsp;
keep blowing the same old trumpet. They define</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:06.880,0:28:15.440
chakras as the centers of energy. Nothing can&nbsp;
be farther from the truth. Chakras are chakras,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:15.440,0:28:22.800
only when they are closed. Open chakras are&nbsp;
no chakras at all. So, chakras only exist as</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:22.800,0:28:28.880
villains and there is no version of them that&nbsp;
is a hero. And we should take care to paint</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:28.880,0:28:34.960
them in their correct perspective.
My definitions above are, in fact,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:34.960,0:28:43.280
the results of my firsthand experience with the&nbsp;
way these chakras behave and function. These are</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:43.280,0:28:49.680
also the result of my experience with Kundalini&nbsp;
flowing up uninterrupted through Sushumna.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:50.560,0:28:55.600
We, Homo sapiens, are the ones that have&nbsp;
collectively developed chakras (which</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:28:55.600,0:29:02.480
automatically means they are closed, remember!).
Now, the time has come for us to take the next</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:02.480,0:29:09.360
major leap in Homo sapiens evolution.
And we are an intelligent species now.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:09.360,0:29:14.080
Hence we can certainly activate this next&nbsp;
phase of evolution way better than we did</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:14.080,0:29:19.760
the first one 7 million years ago.
Every single Homo sapiens needs</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:19.760,0:29:26.240
to activate this next phase of evolution&nbsp;
individually. But for this to take place,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:26.240,0:29:33.440
each Home sapiens needs to have the practical&nbsp;
knowledge of how to activate it correctly. One</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:33.440,0:29:40.480
single slight mistake and the entire skeletal&nbsp;
maneuver may just go absolutely fruitless.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:41.200,0:29:46.320
This maneuver is a very subtle skeletal&nbsp;
re-posturing that makes it possible for us</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:46.320,0:29:54.480
to take the Skeletal Leap. That is why I call it&nbsp;
the mother of all meditations on earth. At times,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:29:54.480,0:30:00.400
even the difference of a few millimeters of&nbsp;
skeletal maneuver is sufficient enough to</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:00.400,0:30:09.040
create a totally new experience. The experience&nbsp;
can be that of perception, action or the flow of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:09.040,0:30:16.400
energy in the vicinity of the maneuver. These&nbsp;
slight, tiny maneuvers at specific skeletal</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:16.400,0:30:23.200
points make all the difference on earth. In&nbsp;
fact, it is a series of skeletal meditations</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:23.200,0:30:30.160
that needs to be done under proper guidance.
These skeletal guided meditations are purely</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:30.160,0:30:37.600
biological in their form and structure. But&nbsp;
they are real miracles! They have a miraculous</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:37.600,0:30:44.160
potential that allows Kundalini energy or neural&nbsp;
communication to start flowing uninterrupted</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:44.160,0:30:50.960
through the body with proper breathing. There are&nbsp;
various skeletal postural adjustments to be made</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:50.960,0:30:58.880
for various purposes. In chakra parlance, this&nbsp;
would be considered the ‘opening of chakras’.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:30:58.880,0:31:07.600
We need to make these skeletal meditations our&nbsp;
first nature 24x7x365. It is to be done by keeping</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:07.600,0:31:15.520
our skeletal posture ready and relaxed at all its&nbsp;
joints, together. Each skeletal meditation can</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:15.520,0:31:23.920
become our first nature leading us to a perennial&nbsp;
state of the said meditation. From that point on,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:23.920,0:31:30.080
we would not need to sit for that particular&nbsp;
skeletal meditation ever again. It would</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:30.080,0:31:37.600
effortlessly become a part and parcel of our very&nbsp;
existence. Each of these skeletal meditations,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:37.600,0:31:45.680
then, would essentially end up granting&nbsp;
us local salvations at its intended level.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:45.680,0:31:51.280
Going up along their hierarchical levels,&nbsp;
it would then become readily possible to</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:51.280,0:31:57.040
achieve holistic salvation as well.
Once there, we would only need to</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:31:57.040,0:32:02.960
ensure that we never fall back into&nbsp;
our old skeletal posture again.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:32:02.960,0:32:08.960
Guided Meditations
That is what Skeletal Leap will try to investigate</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:32:08.960,0:32:16.240
further ahead. We will come up with specific&nbsp;
insights into guided meditations that can achieve:</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:32:16.240,0:32:20.960
Spiritual Awakening&nbsp;|&nbsp;Kundalini&nbsp;
Awakening&nbsp;|&nbsp;Chakra Opening&nbsp;|&nbsp;Instant</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:32:28.480,0:32:32.720
Skeletal Leap’s guided meditations have&nbsp;
been designed to address pretty much</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:32:32.720,0:32:37.440
all concerns Homo sapiens have, as listed ahead:</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:33:46.160,0:33:50.160

Today’s episode titled “At Times MIRACLE HEALING Manifests Spontaneously! Why?” will tell you about a miracle in the making, creating a personal heaven in life.



Have you seen a miracle happening in front of your eyes ever?

In fact, the scope of this miracle is so promising for our species that I feel an urgent need to share it with you.

Welcome back to the latest episode of Skeletal Leap: A Living Adventure!



In this thought-provoking episode, titled “At Times MIRACLE HEALING Manifests Spontaneously! Why?”, I explore the profound concept of miracles, particularly how they can lead to a personal heaven in life. I share personal anecdotes and insights on the nature of miracles as patterns that we often overlook in our daily lives.



I dive deep into the transformative potential of what I call the “Skeletal Leap,” a revolutionary approach that promises to be a major evolution for humanity and a sovereign remedy for lifestyle diseases. I discuss the importance of changing our skeletal posture, a leap that our ancestors made millions of years ago, and its implications for our health today.



Listeners will discover:



- The concept of “smize” and its connection to emotional expression.



- The significance of central fixation in achieving optimal health and clarity.



- How the vagus nerve plays a crucial role in our well-being.



- The relationship between skeletal posture and overall health.

Anyway, have you seen a miracle&nbsp;
happening in front of your eyes ever?



0:00:07.280,0:00:24.720
I have! At least one.
My name is Laadi Ojas. Welcome



0:00:24.720,0:00:34.000
to “Skeletal Leap: A Living Adventure”. Skeletal&nbsp;
Leap transforms one’s life into a personal heaven.



0:00:34.000,0:00:41.520
Today’s episode will tell you about a miracle in&nbsp;
the making, creating a personal heaven in life.



0:00:41.520,0:00:45.760
Miracles are patterns, just patterns.



0:00:45.760,0:00:51.840
It is only that they are seen very rarely.
They surprise us because we haven’t yet



0:00:51.840,0:00:57.840
been accustomed to seeing them in the&nbsp;
normal course of perception. Still,



0:00:57.840,0:01:04.960
there is not much difference between the&nbsp;
two. A pattern is a pattern is a pattern.



0:01:04.960,0:01:13.280
I often wonder why normal patterns don’t surprise&nbsp;
us too. I think it is because we take them for



0:01:13.280,0:01:20.800
granted and hence they don’t ignite our curiosity&nbsp;
to question them ever. Taking a thing for granted



0:01:20.800,0:01:28.320
is a kind of belief that we often fall prey&nbsp;
to. Beliefs stop us from looking into the



0:01:28.320,0:01:35.280
so-called normal patterns a little deeper.
Anyway, have you seen a miracle happening in



0:01:35.280,0:01:42.880
front of your eyes ever?
I have! At least one.

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Welcome back to the 16th episode of Skeletal Leap: A Living Adventure!</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Today’s episode titled “Manifest Spiritual Awakening To Build A Heaven On Earth NOW!” will tell you how I created a personal heaven for myself in my life, alone on my own, but now how I dream of something much bigger than this that I cannot create alone.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">I dream of creating a collective heaven on earth turning it into a place of spiritual bliss which is only possible when a sufficient number of people have already created their individual personal heavens in their own lives one by one by one. into a journey leading to the wholeness of life.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">As soon as this number reaches a critical minimum sufficient enough to initiate a chain reaction among the masses, it will be able to turn into a movement on its own.</p>





<p class="wp-block-paragraph">SKELETAL LEAP, the mind body connection for mind and body healing, is a giant leap that our <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skeleton" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">skeleton</a> can take through the way it postures its joints.</p>

We overexploited our planet’s resources,&nbsp;
without giving back what we took from it.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:07.600,0:00:25.680
Earth wants to take everything back now.
My name is Laadi Ojas. Welcome to “Skeletal</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:25.680,0:00:34.160
Leap: A Living Adventure”. Skeletal Leap&nbsp;
transforms one’s life into a personal heaven.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:34.160,0:00:38.800
Today’s episode will tell you how&nbsp;
I cracked the code of experiencing</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:38.800,0:00:44.160
spiritual bliss and creating&nbsp;
a collective heaven on earth.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:44.160,0:00:47.920
I created a personal heaven for myself in my life,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:47.920,0:00:55.520
alone on my own. But I dream of something much&nbsp;
bigger than this that I cannot create alone.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:56.400,0:01:02.160
I dream of creating a collective heaven on earth&nbsp;
turning it into a place of spiritual bliss which</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:02.160,0:01:07.920
is only possible when a sufficient number of&nbsp;
people have already created their individual</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:07.920,0:01:14.400
personal heavens in their own lives one by&nbsp;
one by one. As soon as this number reaches a</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:14.400,0:01:20.640
critical minimum sufficient enough to initiate&nbsp;
a chain reaction among the masses, it will be</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:20.640,0:01:27.360
able to turn into a movement on its own. Creating&nbsp;
a collective heaven on earth will not be far away</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:27.360,0:01:35.040
then. The movement itself will take care&nbsp;
of this until the destination is reached.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:35.040,0:01:41.040
Every personal heaven is a story of one&nbsp;
personal self. Wouldn’t you like to spread</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:41.040,0:01:47.360
the message of your personal heaven to create a&nbsp;
collective heaven all around you on the planet?</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:47.360,0:01:53.600
I am talking about after you have already&nbsp;
created your own personal heaven. You can</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:53.600,0:02:01.040
immediately do it with the help of miraculous&nbsp;
codes I have discussed about in this podcast.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:01.040,0:02:06.560
Yes, miracles do happen.
We just need to take their</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:06.560,0:02:13.760
cognizance and analyze their patterns.
It takes a lot of sensitivity to take their</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:13.760,0:02:20.560
cognizance. And it takes a lot of experimentation&nbsp;
to analyze the patterns they follow.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:21.200,0:02:27.200
I had always been quite sensitive to take&nbsp;
cognizance of biological processes and of their</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:27.200,0:02:35.520
consequent personal effects in an individual body&nbsp;
as well as their sociocultural effects in groups.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:35.520,0:02:41.600
I would also analyze their patterns in their&nbsp;
minutest details along with their consequent</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:41.600,0:02:48.240
effects on the subjects’ personalities.
It’s a change in an individual personality</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:48.240,0:02:54.000
that initiates the process of a&nbsp;
sociocultural change in a society.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:54.000,0:02:57.920
And when a sufficient number of&nbsp;
individual personality changes has</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:57.920,0:03:04.720
taken place, the process of consequent&nbsp;
sociocultural change gathers momentum.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:04.720,0:03:11.520
There is always a condition that these personality&nbsp;
changes must be profound enough to do the needful.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:11.520,0:03:16.720
They should also be aligned with one another&nbsp;
to effect the consequent sociocultural</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:16.720,0:03:23.200
changes in a single, desired direction.
How can those individual personality</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:23.200,0:03:30.640
changes be initiated? And how can it be&nbsp;
ensured that such a change is profound?</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:30.640,0:03:35.600
The answer to both these questions&nbsp;
is by creating a personal heaven in</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:35.600,0:03:42.400
life and then spreading the word out for&nbsp;
creating a collective heaven on earth.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:42.400,0:03:49.760
An individual change transforms an individual&nbsp;
life into one’s own personal heaven.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:49.760,0:03:56.080
A collective change will transform the entire&nbsp;
world into a collective heaven worth living in.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:56.800,0:04:01.360
I think our species is the apt&nbsp;
custodian of life on the sole</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:01.360,0:04:08.720
‘living planet’ in the entire known universe.
Today, we have almost reached the edge of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:08.720,0:04:15.360
the point of no return from the harmful&nbsp;
effects of human-induced climate change.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:15.360,0:04:21.200
As of today, the two major ice sheets&nbsp;
at Greenland and Antarctica are melting</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:21.200,0:04:27.280
speedily. If the greenhouse gases are not&nbsp;
stopped from emitting further, the rise of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:27.280,0:04:34.240
the global sea level is going to cause havoc.
If the global temperature ultimately increases</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:34.240,0:04:41.840
by 1.5 - 2.00 degree celsius, the melting&nbsp;
of these ice sheets may become irreversible.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:41.840,0:04:47.200
Higher rainfall and higher flooding events&nbsp;
would engulf the northern hemisphere.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:47.200,0:04:55.040
It would end up in the extinction of quite a few&nbsp;
species of plants, insects and vertebrates. Under</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:55.040,0:04:59.760
extreme weather conditions, there are&nbsp;
going to be way more spontaneous forest</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:59.760,0:05:06.560

all these effects in the past few years!</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:06.560,0:05:12.560

the next twenty years will determine the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:12.560,0:05:18.800

Who is to be blamed for it?</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:18.800,0:05:25.680
Our mind, our society and our culture!
Who else?</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:25.680,0:05:30.960
Our mind is greedy. It’s&nbsp;
greedy because it’s fearful.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:30.960,0:05:38.560
We, as a species, wanted to progress as&nbsp;
much as we would, as fast as we could.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:38.560,0:05:44.720
We overexploited our planet’s resources,&nbsp;
without giving back what we took from it.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:45.440,0:05:52.800
Earth wants to take everything back now.
Isn’t it a lesson for our mind? Isn’t it a</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:52.800,0:05:58.240
lesson for the way we have structured the concept&nbsp;

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:58.240,0:06:06.320
our society? Isn’t it a lesson for our value&nbsp;
system that we have erected human culture on?</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:06.320,0:06:13.520
Today, if we are humble enough to learn our&nbsp;
lesson, we need to take immediate action.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:13.520,0:06:19.360
Are we ready to gift a better life to ourselves&nbsp;
today and bequeath a better world to our loved</p>

stress, despair and unfulfilled emotions! And</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:27.920,0:06:35.280
a world devoid of barbed wires, turmoil,&nbsp;
confusion, competition, conspiracies,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:35.280,0:06:42.640
scarcity and, most significantly, a world devoid&nbsp;
of a lurking threat of climatic apocalypse!</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:43.760,0:06:51.360
It will lead us to a life replete with health,&nbsp;
energy, joy, passion and fulfillment! And a</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:51.360,0:06:59.520
world replete with freedom, peace, insight,&nbsp;
collaboration, opportunities, abundance and a</p>

safe future for all species of life on earth!
Let’s do it.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:00.720,0:00:07.600
We overexploited our planet’s resources,&nbsp;
without giving back what we took from it.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:07.600,0:00:25.680
Earth wants to take everything back now.
My name is Laadi Ojas. Welcome to “Skeletal</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:25.680,0:00:34.160
Leap: A Living Adventure”. Skeletal Leap&nbsp;
transforms one’s life into a personal heaven.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:34.160,0:00:38.800
Today’s episode will tell you how&nbsp;
I cracked the code of experiencing</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:38.800,0:00:44.160
spiritual bliss and creating&nbsp;
a collective heaven on earth.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:44.160,0:00:47.920
I created a personal heaven for myself in my life,</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:47.920,0:00:55.520
alone on my own. But I dream of something much&nbsp;
bigger than this that I cannot create alone.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:00:56.400,0:01:02.160
I dream of creating a collective heaven on earth&nbsp;
turning it into a place of spiritual bliss which</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:02.160,0:01:07.920
is only possible when a sufficient number of&nbsp;
people have already created their individual</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:07.920,0:01:14.400
personal heavens in their own lives one by&nbsp;
one by one. As soon as this number reaches a</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:14.400,0:01:20.640
critical minimum sufficient enough to initiate&nbsp;
a chain reaction among the masses, it will be</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:20.640,0:01:27.360
able to turn into a movement on its own. Creating&nbsp;
a collective heaven on earth will not be far away</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:27.360,0:01:35.040
then. The movement itself will take care&nbsp;
of this until the destination is reached.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:35.040,0:01:41.040
Every personal heaven is a story of one&nbsp;
personal self. Wouldn’t you like to spread</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:41.040,0:01:47.360
the message of your personal heaven to create a&nbsp;
collective heaven all around you on the planet?</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:47.360,0:01:53.600
I am talking about after you have already&nbsp;
created your own personal heaven. You can</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:01:53.600,0:02:01.040
immediately do it with the help of miraculous&nbsp;
codes I have discussed about in this podcast.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:01.040,0:02:06.560
Yes, miracles do happen.
We just need to take their</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:06.560,0:02:13.760
cognizance and analyze their patterns.
It takes a lot of sensitivity to take their</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:13.760,0:02:20.560
cognizance. And it takes a lot of experimentation&nbsp;
to analyze the patterns they follow.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:21.200,0:02:27.200
I had always been quite sensitive to take&nbsp;
cognizance of biological processes and of their</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:27.200,0:02:35.520
consequent personal effects in an individual body&nbsp;
as well as their sociocultural effects in groups.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:35.520,0:02:41.600
I would also analyze their patterns in their&nbsp;
minutest details along with their consequent</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:41.600,0:02:48.240
effects on the subjects’ personalities.
It’s a change in an individual personality</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:48.240,0:02:54.000
that initiates the process of a&nbsp;
sociocultural change in a society.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:54.000,0:02:57.920
And when a sufficient number of&nbsp;
individual personality changes has</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:02:57.920,0:03:04.720
taken place, the process of consequent&nbsp;
sociocultural change gathers momentum.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:04.720,0:03:11.520
There is always a condition that these personality&nbsp;
changes must be profound enough to do the needful.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:11.520,0:03:16.720
They should also be aligned with one another&nbsp;
to effect the consequent sociocultural</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:16.720,0:03:23.200
changes in a single, desired direction.
How can those individual personality</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:23.200,0:03:30.640
changes be initiated? And how can it be&nbsp;
ensured that such a change is profound?</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:30.640,0:03:35.600
The answer to both these questions&nbsp;
is by creating a personal heaven in</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:35.600,0:03:42.400
life and then spreading the word out for&nbsp;
creating a collective heaven on earth.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:42.400,0:03:49.760
An individual change transforms an individual&nbsp;
life into one’s own personal heaven.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:49.760,0:03:56.080
A collective change will transform the entire&nbsp;
world into a collective heaven worth living in.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:03:56.800,0:04:01.360
I think our species is the apt&nbsp;
custodian of life on the sole</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:01.360,0:04:08.720
‘living planet’ in the entire known universe.
Today, we have almost reached the edge of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:08.720,0:04:15.360
the point of no return from the harmful&nbsp;
effects of human-induced climate change.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:15.360,0:04:21.200
As of today, the two major ice sheets&nbsp;
at Greenland and Antarctica are melting</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:21.200,0:04:27.280
speedily. If the greenhouse gases are not&nbsp;
stopped from emitting further, the rise of</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:27.280,0:04:34.240
the global sea level is going to cause havoc.
If the global temperature ultimately increases</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:34.240,0:04:41.840
by 1.5 - 2.00 degree celsius, the melting&nbsp;
of these ice sheets may become irreversible.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:41.840,0:04:47.200
Higher rainfall and higher flooding events&nbsp;
would engulf the northern hemisphere.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:47.200,0:04:55.040
It would end up in the extinction of quite a few&nbsp;
species of plants, insects and vertebrates. Under</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:55.040,0:04:59.760
extreme weather conditions, there are&nbsp;
going to be way more spontaneous forest</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:04:59.760,0:05:06.560
fires. And we have already started seeing&nbsp;
all these effects in the past few years!</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:06.560,0:05:12.560
As David Attenborough said, “What we do in&nbsp;
the next twenty years will determine the</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:12.560,0:05:18.800
future of all life on earth.”
Who is to be blamed for it?</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:18.800,0:05:25.680
Our mind, our society and our culture!
Who else?</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:25.680,0:05:30.960
Our mind is greedy. It’s&nbsp;

We, as a species, wanted to progress as&nbsp;

Isn’t it a lesson for our mind? Isn’t it a</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:05:58.240,0:06:06.320
our society? Isn’t it a lesson for our value&nbsp;
system that we have erected human culture on?</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">0:06:06.320,0:06:13.520

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Welcome back to the 13th episode of Skeletal Leap: A Living Adventure!</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Today’s episode titled “Empty Your Mind with This Simple Procedure Right Now!” will tell you how I cracked the code of central fixation of the mind.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Once I had successfully cracked the code of instant central fixation of the body, I obviously moved on to cracking the code of instant central fixation of the mind. It was as important as other central fixations if not more since the mind seemed to affect every single domain of human life negatively or else positively.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">But the very first thing that I got confronted with was ascertaining what exactly it meant.</p>







<p class="wp-block-paragraph">SKELETAL LEAP, the mind body connection for mind and body healing, is a giant leap that our <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skeleton" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">skeleton</a> can take through the way it postures its joints.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Welcome back to the latest episode of Skeletal Leap: A Living Adventure!</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">In this thought-provoking episode titled “Empty Your Mind with This Simple Procedure Right Now!,” Laadi Ojas dives deep into the intricate relationship between the mind and the brain.&nbsp;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">He explores how the mind serves as the reviewing faculty of the brain, never viewing but only revisiting what has already been perceived and acted upon.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Laadi shares his journey of understanding the concept of central fixation, moving from the body to the mind.&nbsp;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">He discusses how the mind's fixation influences every aspect of human life, both positively and negatively.&nbsp;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Through personal insights and revelations, he examines the nature of thoughts, emotions, and instincts, revealing how unresolved issues can keep the mind in a constant state of busyness.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">This episode delves into:</p>



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>The distinction between the brain and the mind, and their roles in our perception of reality.</li>



<li>The concept of central fixation and its importance for mental clarity.</li>



<li>How emotions and morals can complicate the mind's natural processes.</li>



<li>The impact of societal conditioning on instincts such as sex, curiosity, and adventure.</li>



<li>The potential for achieving a state of mental emptiness through breathwork and meditation.</li>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Today’s episode titled “READY for SPONTANEOUS KUNDALINI AWAKENING through BREATHWORK Technique?” will tell you how I cracked the code of spontaneous Kundalini awakening through breathwork technique along with establishing the gut to brain communication. I did it via optimizing the vagus nerve by extending exhalations longer than inhalations letting the lungs empty themselves as much as they could while all the chakras were open.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">SKELETAL LEAP, the mind body connection for mind and body healing, is a giant leap that our <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skeleton" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">skeleton</a> can take through the way it postures its joints.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Welcome back to the 6th episode of Skeletal Leap: A Living Adventure! </p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Today’s episode titled “Opening Sacral Chakra: Chakra Healing Secrets That REALLY Work” will tell you how I cracked the code of instantly opening sacral chakra in its location at the sacrum which is a set of 5 fused sacral vertebrae just above the coccyx or the tailbone.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">You will also learn how opening sacral chakra further highlights the bottom part of the lower 'S' shape of the double 'S' shaped spine further above the root chakra.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">SKELETAL LEAP, the mind body connection for mind and body healing, is a giant leap that our <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skeleton" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">skeleton</a> can take through the way it postures its joints.</p>



<p class="p1 wp-block-paragraph">I had stumbled upon this miracle many years ago, coincidentally.</p>



<p class="p1 wp-block-paragraph">It took me quite a few years to analyze it fully, and then a few more to turn the results of my analysis into a feasible action plan.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Starting from this episode 6, I changed my day of publishing my new podcast episodes from Sundays to Tuesdays as Sundays are my listeners' family days on which they fulfill leftover weekly errands. Now I come up with a new weekly episode every Tuesday morning for miraculous healing enthusiasts to effectively start their weekdays with what they like the most! </p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Welcome to another enlightening episode of Skeletal Leap: A Living Adventure!</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Join me as I share my discoveries about the sacral chakra’s location at the sacrum, a crucial area that connects to the pelvis and plays a vital role in our physical and emotional well-being. </p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">I explore the effects of long-term compression on the sacral plexus and how it leads to a closed sacral chakra, affecting our creativity, curiosity, and sexual vitality.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Through personal experiences and insights, I reveal the intricate relationship between the sacral and root chakras, emphasizing their interconnectedness.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Learn how the energy flow through our bodies can be disrupted by emotional fragmentation and how correcting our posture can lead to profound changes in our health and energy levels.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">In this episode, I also discuss the importance of understanding the distinction between instincts and emotions, shedding light on how emotional blockages can manifest as lifestyle diseases.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">I provide actionable steps to unlock the sacral chakra and restore balance, guiding you towards a state of joy and passion in life.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">As I conclude this exploration, I invite you to join me in the next episode where I will reveal how I cracked the code of instant solar plexus chakra opening. Don't miss out on this journey of self-discovery and healing!</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Welcome back to the 5th episode of Skeletal Leap: A Living Adventure, titled "Root Chakra Opening and Healing: Surprising Secrets Unearthed!"</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Today’s episode will tell you how I cracked the code of instant root chakra opening and healing, unearthing surprising secrets about the skeletal positioning and posturing of root chakra at the very base of the vertebral column at coccyx. </p>





<p class="wp-block-paragraph">SKELETAL LEAP, the mind body connection for mind and body healing, is a giant leap that our <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skeleton" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">skeleton</a> can take through the way it postures its joints.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Welcome to another enlightening episode of Skeletal Leap: A Living Adventure! In today's episode, titled “Root Chakra Opening and Healing - Surprising Secrets Unearthed!,” I, Laadi Ojas, share the transformative journey of unlocking the foundational energy of life.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Having previously experienced the miraculous benefits of instant vision improvement, I turned my attention to the chakra system, particularly the root chakra. Located at the coccyx, or tailbone, this chakra is the remnant of our evolutionary past and is crucial for maintaining balance and stability in our lives.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">In this episode, I delve into the intricacies of the root chakra, exploring how its closure can lead to feelings of fear and anxiety, disrupting both our physical and psychological well-being. I discuss the common postural issues, such as anterior and posterior pelvic tilt, that can lead to a closed root chakra and the resulting lifestyle diseases.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Join me as I break down the relationship between pelvic posture and the root chakra's energy flow, revealing how correcting these postural habits can lead to profound changes in our health and vitality. I share my personal experiences, the challenges I faced, and the insights I gained while working to open this vital energy center.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Through scientific investigation of this ancient esoteric system, I provide actionable steps to unlock the root chakra and restore balance in your life. Discover how to make this newfound posture your first nature, leading to increased awareness, energy, and focus.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">As I conclude this exploration, I invite you to embrace the changes that come with opening the root chakra and prepare for the next exciting episode where I will reveal how I cracked the code of instant sacral chakra opening.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Welcome to the 4th episode titled “Unlocking The Secrets of Balancing The Chakras” of my podcast “Skeletal Leap: A Living Adventure.”</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">SKELETAL LEAP is a transformative journey that connects mind and body, allowing us to unlock the potential within our skeleton through the art of posturing its joints.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">In today’s episode, I delve deeper into the ancient chakra system that underpins our physical, mental and spiritual well-being. Having previously cracked the code of instant visual acuity, I now explore how all seven chakras can be opened biologically to enhance our health and vitality.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Join me as I discuss the profound significance of these chakras, their connection to our evolutionary journey, and how they have been shrouded in esoteric language that often obscures their true potential. I aim to demystify the chakra system, transforming it from an abstract concept into a comprehensible and practical framework for self-healing.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Through this exploration, I will share my insights on the importance of maintaining a healthy posture and the role it plays in the flow of energy through our bodies. We’ll address how the modern lifestyle has led to a collective closing of these chakras and the implications it has on our overall health.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Discover how the interplay between the mind, body, and the chakra system can lead to a more energetic and fulfilling life. I will also introduce the concept of the vagus nerve and its connection to the chakra system, illustrating how both materialistic and vitalistic approaches can guide us to create a holistic understanding of our health.</p>
