Silence - Melathonin and Meditation

by Maria Ferreira da Silva

in 14 Dec 2016

  (...previous) Pintura de Nicholas Roerich It has resulted in the enrichment of the essence of the Soul or the Consciousness, manifested through cerebral activity throughout the course of human development. The mind is what is produced on subtle planes by the brain as a whole; it is the mind that contains the consciousness or Man’s conscious state. As the Consciousness is a reflection of the Soul or the Spirit, it gradually manifests itself more as cerebral capacity increases, by activating further areas of the brain rather than causing an increase in its size.
Neurons are naturally thinking entities and the brain is made up of billions of these minuscule beings. During a single life, they multiply by reproduction, and they are born and die. The encephalic matter is made up of these neurons, which cluster together in an autonomous fashion in sectors or specific areas.

When Man stimulates the neurons, he creates the opportunity for developing the intelligence, and consequently increasing consciousness. Since it is Consciousness that remains after death, when one desires incarnation in a new body, one “constructs” a more advanced brain, based on the one that was developed in one’s past life, which will enable the Soul to manifest itself with greater intensity. Hence, in the next incarnation there will be a higher level of Consciousness and a more capable cerebral capacity and the brain will contain a more extensive memory of the past (conveyed from the previous life by the Consciousness or Soul), which will provide for improved building of the present life. Gradually, from one life to the next, one becomes better able to survive and face the demands of the world, thus contributing towards the improvement not only of one’s own psyche and mind, but also that of the society in which one lives.
There is no need here for a description or classification of the many phenomena which occur in the brain at the physical and biological level. This can be found in recent studies of the brain carried out by neuroscientists which provide a satisfactory explanation of biological processes.
Man’s mental and cerebral development has enabled him not only to rise above the “mental chaos” and think in a balanced way but also to dominate his thinking or not thinking: silence is the result of this control of the mind. The most effective and natural way of achieving this control of cerebral cells is through Meditation, which helps us to relieve body tensions and break the flow of thought. The goal of Meditation is to achieve a state of repose in the mind: to stop the mind thinking and achieve a state of silence. During these “brief” silent periods the brain has the opportunity for recovery and regeneration, thus contributing for the “stimulus” of the expansion of consciousness.

Thus, training the mind to control itself causes cerebral mutation, which is transmitted from one life to the next and contributes towards the enrichment of the next generation, bringing benefits for the biological group which is descended from the being which set in train such a mutation. Many generations on, this mutation will benefit many groups of beings and will thus produce a slight change in the state of consciousness and intelligence in terms of overall human development. This selection and natural evolution of the brain can be improved on day by day, producing an effect on the consciousness; the greater the perfection of the physical vehicle, the brain, the greater the degree to which the Spirit is able to manifest itself and transmit wisdom, knowledge and intelligence, enabling the expansion of consciousness for the further development of an incarnated soul.

The huge advance made by Man since primitive times is associated with an improved organisation of the areas of the brain, more specifically in those associated with speech. However, as speech is a consequence of brain development, this advance was only possible when Man was ready to receive the great Initiation of the Human Mind, given by Beings who were willing to undergo incarnation in earthly forms in order to arise self- consciousness in man.
