Superhuman abilities of these Himalayan monks shocked Harvard University

- October 26, 2018

What these Himalayan monks gain from their extraordinary brains, acts beyond human capabilities. Apart from this, they are known to revive their brains without any difficulty.

It is a well-rooted fact that Buddhist monks are incredible human, but their beyond-belief adventures and performances put an infinity question mark; amazes and stuns the scientists. This is because there is no other supernatural way that how these monks are born; they are born as ordinary human beings.

In the 1980s, Professor Herbert Benson of the Harvard School of Medicine, along with his anxious group of scientists and researchers tracked for remote monasteries surrounded by the Himalayan Mountains. They wanted to find ways, find and decode documents, in which the monks had tampered or fingered (made change) their bodies lightly and easily.

These monks were acknowledged to increase the temperature of their bodies, especially their fingers and toes by a difference of 17 degrees Celsius and they could even reduce the metabolic rate of their body by 64%. They did so through a yoga technique which reduces stress called as ‘gTum-mo’.

Harvard researchers also recorded the monks who used to dry their clothes and dry wet sheets using their body heat. Isn’t that sounds amazing?

The monks did unbelievable work — They would spend their nights on the edges of rock when the temperature fell to zero degrees Fahrenheit. These rocky ridges were at an altitude of 15,000 feet and the monks were only available with cotton or woolen shawls to wrap them and save them against the cold and frenzy wind. The scientists observed that these monks attained these supernatural abilities through stringent meditation techniques, spiritual practice, and guided preparation.

With the nourishment of “gTum-mo”, Yoga technique, these monks entered into the world of deep and intense meditation. While they were in this process of doing, other monks drowned the sheets of up to 3–6 feet into the cold water and settled them on the monks who were meditating.

For common people like us, or the people who are not trained enough like those monks will almost find it impossible to get rid of shivering, cold, and illness; even leading to death. But the scientists revealed that the steam of water was flying out from these sheets within an hour only.

Consequently, after witnessing and observing such never before experiences, Benson gave priority to the importance of advanced meditation and it could even lead to remedy for stress-related illnesses.

The reason behind this observation:

“This is because in the US more than 60 percent of people are suffering from this stress-related issue and they are not properly treated by drugs and sometimes even surgery. But if we start practicing all advanced meditation, then it can miraculously revive our mind and cure us”.

He continues to add that, he hopes that care which monks take of themselves through the meditation technique will be equivalent to medicines, surgeries, and other therapies that will give a great support in reducing mental and physical illness. With proper nutrition along with appropriate diet; mind and body exercise will be lead towards self-care habit. It will help in saving millions of dollars annually in medical costs.
