  Speaker 1: If you want to increase the capacity of your brain,
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: one thing you can do is pack more neurons into
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: your head.
• 0:08
  Speaker 2: Okay.
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: Like a lot of children come like this. They come
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: with excessive neuronal capacity, but they're unstable.
• 0:16
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: Because too much. They're brilliant, but brilliance can't do anything
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: without balance, you know.
• 0:24
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: It'll work against you.
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, a lot of kids are really unbalanced. Yeah.
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: So, one simple thing to do for these children is, unfortunately,
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: here you take them to the doctor, medicate them to
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: … See, when you give a medicine to slow down something,
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: everything slows down, all right? You don't have a tablet
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: which will go and act only in that place. It
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: will slow down everything. Sedations are given to children like anything.
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: It's a wrong way to do it. If children are
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: like this, the thing you need to do is take
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: them out into the mountains, make them climb, play a game, swim.
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: Physical activity, intense physical activity, it'll burn down what is excess.
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: Or if you can teach them the classical system of yoga,
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: it will do that very well. But if that is
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: not possible, you have enough space in United States, let
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: them run in the mountains, let them swim in the river, whatever.
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: Physical activity to burn it down.
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: Okay.
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: Another way of enhancing the capacity is you increase the
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: size of the neuron. See, right now, as you sit
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: here in a restful state, 20% or more of your
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: energy is spent on your brain. Your brain is only
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: this much. I'm sorry, that much, okay?
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but it could be a little less over here too.
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: So, if your brain is this much, it's consuming 20%
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: of the energy. This big body is consuming 80%. This
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: much brain is consuming 20%. That is the nature of
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: the brain. If you increase the neuron size, The volume
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: of energy it will consume will be such, even your
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: physical growth will not happen properly.
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: Wow.
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: And you cannot sustain that. So, today, neuronal scientists are
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: explaining it this way. But way back 15,000 years ago,
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: Adiyogi said, unless there are fundamental changes in the planetary system,
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: you cannot evolve beyond, but you can evolve consciously.
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: I see. So physiologically, body-wise, we can't evolve anymore. We've evolved.
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: If you're thinking of growing horns or something.
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: Or wings or something, yeah.
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: That won't happen. But the existing system is largely unused.
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: So the inner system, the conscious.
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: No, don't even go to consciousness. That's another thing. If
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: you wish to go there today, we will go. Otherwise,
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: we won't go. Just the neuronal system is largely unused.
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: Most studies say our brain capacity is only used 8
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: to 12% in average human beings. Wow. Some are using
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: up to 20%.
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: Yeah, some are not.
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: Yes. 20% is still not a great percentage.
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: No, yeah. Because … It's like a G minus, I think.
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: I don't know what that is.
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: I don't even know what it is.
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: Because I didn't go to school much, so I don't
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: know what grades they gave me.
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Let us imagine they were good, you know. Yeah.
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: So if we only are using up to 20%, but
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: you believe that we can evolve that. Yes. Wow.
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: You can push it. If you push it to 100%,
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: you'll be five times at least, probably many, many fold
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: more than what you are right now in terms of
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: your intelligence and capacity, which some human beings are displaying,
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: all right?
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
