Many years ago on a flight i was in the throes of a terrific attack of migraine. A co passenger sensed this and asked me to hum . I did it just as i dint have anything to ease the pain at that point. Incredibly, i fell asleep after 15 min of humming and woke up refreshed when we landed. Just remembered that as i listened to this

[drshyamakanungo]

Throughout my life as an obstetrician, and a medical college teacher I have believed and applied this in my practice ....Congratulations to the neurologist

[rajendraprasaddwivedi]

Dr very well explained, l have been experiencing same and with regular practice, l don't take any medication, l am 56 now, healthy mind, healthy life

[mani]

Wow her passion is infectious, her experiential knowledge is louder than all the books in the world & her patient has proven that AUM chanting can cure incurable disease
A great inspiration for early morning meditation

[ohlalafrance]

I am so thankful to you and your guest for educating me about this. If I may, what might enhance it even more for a non Sanskrit speaking audience is whenever a word like "Prana" is uttered, it's on the screen with it's definition in English. Thanks again.

[shrutipatil]

We r proud of you that you made research on mantras in this modern era

[andrewentwistle]

This interview by Dr. Sweta Adatia has to be the best I have heard on the topic of the mind. what an incredible educator / communicator. I will be looking out for more content. thank you 🙏

[Lathavidyaranya]

The word 'mantra' is explained as " mananaat traayate", 'mananaat' = by being mindful, through meditation, 'traayate' = it protects.
Beautiful video! Very happy that a neurologist has done these researches and declared the results that add authenticity! 🙏💐🕉️

[suhasbiniwale]

I am fully agree as I am practicing for last many years this medication n Gayatri Mantra

[sominisudeep]

So fluent, an effective communicator who doesn't spare a second to share what she knows !

[doolchandgoordeen]

36:09 Namaste. Excellent very true. Actually when you go deeper into mediation you come into contact with god. When I say God who ever you think God is he manifest in that form. The guru that you mentioned actually came to Trinidad and spent some time in the chinmaya mission of which my wife and daughter were students. My Guru is Dr baskaran pillai. He has many videos and I just lay down on my bed and experience everything.. Yes you are right you can stay anywhere anytime and completely heal yourself. Faith belief and practice is the key. God bless

[rajanig]

Excellent session.

Unlike other interviewers, here the interviewer let the guest do the talking....great!!

[LathaNair]

Beautiful video as I have been practicing meditation for the past 5 years and it has transformed my life. I feel the bliss, the beauty around us like the sun, moon, nature etc. I have started writing poems after practising meditation for few years.

[GlassFullIsh]

This really is an amazing episode; thank you for sharing it!

[vipanchhabra]

Too Gud, it's my favorite subject, had been doing daily, morning, evening, 45mins of Silent Meditation, thru my Mantra 'Guru Brahma, Guru Vishnu.... '

[dietsari]

Wow, Dr Sweta you hit the nail on the head. What a pleasure it has been listening to this podcast. Thank you Prana stories for this.

[jyotirjyotir]

To me it's a very rare video. So invaluable to mankind that I have no language to explain. The presentation is remarkably beautiful. It seems that you have spiritually digested the subject.
You said correctly that knowing science does not mean that one should be an atheist. Rather the person gets an opportunity to FEEL/SENSE the reality. My hats off to you. Waiting for more such videos. Be blessed with Devine Blessings.

[gaputahacademy]

I love India and I am sure I was from India on my past lives and now I love Dr Sweta Adatia!

[dr.rajnagarajan]

The battle between the limbic system and the neocortex and how to quiet the chatter so the neocortex can leverage its full potential as a seat of learning and decision-making through pranayama and mantra meditation. This was a spectacular interview indeed❤.
