Thoppu-karanam
or
Super Brain Yoga
"ThoppuKaranam"-is a Tamil(a South Indian Language) word,
which means to hold the ears. From ancient times this practice has
been evident in the Indian Culture, where people practice this in
front of the image of the Lord Ganapathy(a symbolicrepresentation
of supreme energy in the form of an elephant which actually
signifies wisdom.
Thus also connected with the brain. "Ga" representing Intelligence,
"Na" representing Wisdom and "Pathy" representing -Master, so
ideally meaning the Master of Wisdom and Intelligence). It is said
that this practice is a request to stimulate the wisdom and
intelligence. It is also said that the practice has been evident in
theancientGurukulaSystems, where the seers asked their pupils to
practice this technique in order to stimulate andenergizethe brain
and its functions.
The practice of ear piercing too has its real reasons being the
stimulation of thepituitaryand pineal glands, due to the effect of the
pressure in the ear lobes.
Autism –recovery -improvement
•Yale neurobiology researcher Dr. EugeniusYang,
Jr. says the practice stimulates neural pathways in
the brain by activating acupuncture points on the
earlobes–and synchronizes the right and left
hemispheres of the brain, as demonstrated by
EEG (electroencephalograph) scans. “I do it
every day,” he said.He has prescribed this for
patients with Alzheimer’s and children with
autism and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity
Disorder.
Education –Grade -Increase
•Dr. Eric Robins, a medical doctor in Los
Angeles, calls it “a fast, simple, drug-free
method of increasing mental energy” and
prescribes it for his patients. He speaks of
one student who raised his grades from
C’s to A’s in the space of one semester.
Ear –brain -connection
•According to Dr. PaulNogierMD, a
neurologist,the earcorresponds to aninverted
fetuscurled in the womb. Points onthe
earcorrespond with specific areas ofthe
body, andthe earlobe corresponds to the
head.Consequently, massage of thesepoints
can produce therapeutic benefits to the brain.
