Why can meditation opens the creativity of Life?
―The brain science of Medimotion
Message from the Himalayas 3
Everybody in the world!
The coronavirus is rapidly spreading around the world.
Here in Dharamsala, a small town in the Himalaya, India, the first death by coronavirus has finally occurred. In India, where medical facilities are not enough, a three-week lockdown has started.
All traffic and markets are closed, and a total population of 1.3 billion is banned from going out and gathering. All of us have to stay at home.
How about in your area? I resonate with your difficult situations deeply.
In the first and second propositions, I introduced the "Medimotion method" to overcome our situations.
Medimotion is “moving meditation” or "meditation in motion"
Medimotion is like this, we imagine that someone moves our body and we just follow it.
In today's third message, I would like to introduce what is happening in our brain during the medimotion by the latest brain science.
As shown in this figure, our brain is divided into several areas according to the opening channels.
For example, when we are thinking, the "prefrontal cortex" in front of the brain is activated.
When listening to music, the "temporal area" beside the brain is activated.
When we are looking at things, the "visual area" behind is activated.
“Default mode” is found out
In the 20 century, the dormant brain was regarded to be doing nothing.
However, at the beginning of the 21st century, it was discovered that many parts of the whole brain are active as shown in this figure. It is named "Default Mode".
When you're out of concentration, as you experienced, your mind is wandering from an image to another and then moving on to something else. It is also called "mind-wandering".
When brain scientists examined the brain while meditating, it looked like this "Default Mode" or "Mind Wandering". It turns out that every part of the brain except the “motor area” is activated. The meditator feels various Qualia during the meditation and is traveling from one to the next.
What about “medimotion”?
Although it has not yet been proved in experiments, it is easy to imagine that it activates the whole brain, including the "motor area" in front of the brain, which was not activated at the time of meditation, as shown in the figure below you, can assume.
As you experienced in medimotion, you could meet all the different Qualia come and go, one after another, and change from one to the next.
Yes, during the "medimotion" that moves the body, every Qualia sleeping deep in the mind and body is activated, and when they meet, new Qualia are born more and more.
Secret of creativity of Life
This is the secret how "Medimotion" opens the infinite creativity of Life. A Qualia that moves somewhere in the body meets a Qualia that you dreamed of when you were a child, and a new Qualia was born, or a Qualia in another part of the body met a memory you forgot, and a new movement came out.
