Benefits Of Cycling


I really love this picture not because I'm dropping from space or cycling to the Moon, but because it captured something incredible in my mind: cycling boosts your brain power. Just as it builds and strengthens your body muscles, it also builds your brain and creates new brain cells. Cycling increases blood flow and oxygen to the brain, stimulating and regenerating receptors. This enhanced brain function empowers you to tackle complex problems with greater ease.

The more you cycle; whether it's distance, terrain, or intensity the more you boost serotonin and dopamine, the "happy hormones" that elevate mood and motivation. Cycling also sharpens your psychological response to danger, enabling quicker and more effective reactions in critical situations. It's essentially a lifesaver.

If you haven't experienced these benefits firsthand, I highly recommend giving cycling a try. You could see noticeable improvements within a month. Imagine being a "space-time traveller" on a cycling high! Cycling increases Anandamide in your system, a neurotransmitter derived from Sanskrit meaning "joy," "bliss," and "delight." Also known as N-arachidonoylethanolamine (AEA), Anandamide has psychoactive effects similar to cannabinoids.

There are countless other benefits to cycling, but these are just a few I've experienced and researched.

Interplay of Art, Mind and Reality

Image
 Introduction  The interplay of art, mind, and reality is a fascinating dance that reflects how humans interpret, shape, and transcend their existence. The mind of an artist holds a profound secret, translating transcendent mental images into art. Art, in essence, is a reflection of the artist's mind. Human anatomy, as an example, is a highly sophisticated biological science. But what if I were to say that the human mind and the entirety of physical nature are the true sciences that hold every secret of the universe? Spiritual beliefs and many religions suggest that human consciousness has extraordinary abilities, often limited by formal education—"the basics we learn in school"—and by what society teaches us to accept. For instance, if you ask a student, “What is 2+2? ” they would simply answer, “4.” If you then ask, “Why is it 4 and not something else?” they might struggle to explain. This is because we are taught that 2+2 equals 4 without question or deeper understa...

The Invention of Blue LED

Image
 Introduction  Light-emitting diodes (LEDs) have brought about a revolution in how we illuminate our world and display information. These fascinating semiconductor devices emit light when an electric current flows through them. The magic happens when electrons in the semiconductor recombine with electron holes , releasing energy in the form of photons . The color of the light emitted depends on the energy required for electrons to cross the semiconductor's band gap. Using multiple semiconductors or a layer of light-emitting phosphor , we can even create white light.  Electronic symbol Parts of a conventional LED. The flat bottom surfaces of the anvil and post embedded inside the epoxy act as anchors, to prevent the conductors from being forcefully pulled out via mechanical strain or vibration. The story of LEDs dates back to 1962 when they first appeared as practical electronic components, emitting low-intensity infrared (IR) light. These IR LEDs became essential in remo...

Science of Shilpa Shastra

Image
Introduction  Shilpa Shastra, often referred to as the " Science of Arts and Crafts ," is an ancient Indian treatise that seamlessly combines aesthetics, technical expertise, and spirituality. Rooted in profound philosophy, this text serves as a comprehensive guide to sculpture, architecture, painting, and various crafts, with its principles deeply embedded in cultural and religious traditions. It lays down meticulous design standards, emphasizing harmony, proportions, and symbolic meanings, particularly in Hindu temple architecture and iconography.  Beyond mere craftsmanship, Shilpa Shastra offers insights into the connection between creativity and divinity, introducing the 64 external arts (Bahya-kala) and 64 internal arts (Abhyantara-kala) as part of its extensive knowledge repository. From the design of awe-inspiring temples to intricate sculptures that breathe life into myths, this ancient science represents the pinnacle of artistic and architectural innovation in India...
