Parikshiti Mhaispurkar, our certified teacher and Coordintaor for Yoga Activities in Australia region conducted a Lecture at Monash University. Parikshiti is currently working at the Howard Florey Institute of Neurosciences (Melbourne University) as a visting scientist and at the School of Physics (Monash University). Currently his research is not directly related to meditation but the things he is presently doing will lay a strong foundation of his future plans of doing research to explore secrets of meditation scientifically.

Following is the Feedback of Parikshiti's lecture received from Monash Yoga Society <yoga@monashclubs.org>

Feedback on "Yoga and Happiness"

"Thank you Parikshiti for a very in-depth, well understood and explained presentation. We found it exceptionally rare to have the esoteric aspects of yoga so clearly explained by someone who not only understood the original language and cultural background, could communicate it to a western audience, and also looked at it from a practitioners viewpoint."

"It was interesting to hear from a distinctly different tradition of yoga and one that reinforced that asanas are a component of yoga, rather than the current over-emphasis which is common in the west. We would have been interested to see more on how knowledege of psychic physiology is put
into practice and, if you are available in the future, would like hear more details about your research into the physiological effects of meditation."

Thank you again,
Monash Yoga Society
