ENUMCLAW, Wash., Nov. 12 /Christian Newswire/ -- "Brain Facts," a publication issued by The Society for Neuroscience, correlates the human brain with a number of medical disorders ranging from Alzheimer's Disease, Epilepsy, Huntington's Disease, sleep disorders, anxiety disorders, Multiple Sclerosis, Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis, and Tourette Syndrome.
Dr. C. Samuel Verghese connects the brain with spiritual disorders as well. Dr. Verghese, the son of missionaries in India and a born-again Christian, views brain activity (otherwise called brain tuning), and spiritual transformation as an inseparable part of developing the life of a Christian.
"The ultimate goal and the grand purpose of brain power are to become like Christ. Several words are used in Scripture to portray the beautiful outcome of fine-tuning. 'The pure heart,' 'the pure mind,' and 'the mind of Christ' serve as images to illuminate many important functions of fine-tuning and brain power."
Dr. Verghese describes his new book, "Brain Power - How to Fine Tune Your Brain Naturally" (WinePress, 2008), as an integrated approach to enjoying a Spirit-filled life accomplished by the transformation of the mind. He explores the process of becoming more like Christ through the various centers of the brain, especially those processing cognition, emotion, perception, memory and conscience.
Dr. Verghese received his education from various educational institutions in India and the United States of America. His book, "Brain Power," was reviewed in Annals of the American Psychotherapy, Spring 2008 volume 11, number 1.
Currently working as a Neurophysiologist and Naturopathic Physician at The Integrative Medicine and Biofeedback Clinic, Dr. Verghese he is a Global Voluntary Medical Missionary and lives in New Jersey with his wife and three children; he enjoys researching and formulating nutritional supplements. His quest to discover new botanical healing remedies has taken him to rainforests of Asia and South America.
