The brain is the most important organ of our body. There are two important endocrine glands in it – the Pineal gland and the Pituitary gland.
The Pineal gland is located in the space between the eyebrows. In Yoga, it has a correlation with the Ajna Chakra. It is very active in children but after the age of 8 or 9, its activity decreases and the pituitary gland becomes more active. As a result, emotions become more intense. This is the reason why some children become emotionally unbalanced and mentally perturbed with the onset of puberty, and end up indulging in untoward actions. In order to develop the pineal gland and delay its atrophy, as well as to bring the pituitary gland under control, it is necessary to inculcate the practice of asana, pranayama, mudra, etc. in children at the age of 7 to 8 years. Our Rishis considered this to be very important.
Janana Mudra: The tips of both the thumbs have three main acupressure points connected with the brain, pineal gland and pituitary gland. Pressure applied at these points result in the generation of an electromagnetic current, which makes the brain and the pineal gland more active. This enhances memory, concentration and thinking concentration and thinking capabilities. When one sits in Jana Mudra, the first finger applies pressure on the thumb at this specific point, which naturally brings about the above advantages.
Japa (the silent repetition of a mantra): when we perform japa of the Lord’s name by counting of beads, we hold the rosary of beds between the thumb and the ring finger and move the beads using the middle finger, thereby producing friction at these very points with the movement of each bead.
Kirtana (chanting): Clapping with both hands while chanting the Lord’s name has an acupressure-like effect on all the points in the hands. It creates an effect on all organs of the body similar to recharging a battery and makes them active. As a result glands work better, immunity increases and the chances of falling ill are reduced. When children sing the Lord’s name in unison, their tumultuous sound reverberates through space and generates pious vibrations in the atmosphere. The mind becomes one-pointedly focused on the sound during singing, and as a result both hearing and memory power are enhanced. That is why group prayers are considered to be important in schools.
Meditating on Ajna Chakra: Doing the Jnana Mudra while sitting in Padmasana (lotus posture) and concentrating on your Ajna Chakra while meditating on your presiding deity or Gurudev, are very important because concentration and meditation are very helpful in curbing the distractions and restlessness of the mind through the sublimation of psychic powers। Practice of meditation increases I. Q. (Intelligence Quotient) in miraculous way. This is a scientifically proven fact .
