Research on Functioning of brain How does brain function? How do we remember things? What is memory? Different parts of brain Short and Long Term Memory Most people are fairly good at remembering some types of things and not so good at remembering others http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Long-term_memory http://health.howstuffworks.com/human-body/systems/nervous-system/human-memory2.htm

Psychology and Positive thinking Human brain thinks in different ways which depends on programming, past and hormones Yoga helps you to get your body moving and maintains good health Control over the unconscious mind In order to turn the mind toward the positive, inner work and training are required.

Nutrition (Spices & Herbs) Chawanprash Tulsi Neem Haldi Triphala Bilpatra (leaf of a plant dedicated to god shiv) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_herbs_and_minerals_in_Ayurveda

Mantras MMJ Gayatri Panchakshar 5 Hare Ram (ISKON) Om Aghor etc

Mantras Actually mantras must be pronounced in the very same way as told by the Sanskrit pundits, otherwise mantras would not be beneficial. Although, it depends on the reasons of chanting, example mantras of 6 acts or magical powers needs to be chanted with all right pronunciation, right setup, right fire.... But mantras for kundalini activation need not be done with the same way.....Also we have 3 energy floating in the system : Rajsik, Tamsik, & Saatvik... if we want to capture the saatvik energy from cosmos then mantras may be done without accurate setups.... For your case, if you want to active kundali, get good health, get good fortune, then the setup does not matter.... But for my case if I want all magical powers then I have to do it very right way, also I have to select tamsik energy from cosmos as it if more easy and aggressive....
