Scientific reason behind one of the old Indian School punishment method

Remember the ‘good’ old Indian school punishments? Holding the earlobes with arms crossed over your chests, bending the knees and then sit and then stand and so on till the time Masterji is saying? Though teachers these days misunderstood this concept in some areas and hurting the students violating the basic rights which is a HR issue. Down the road we are not going to discuss about it anyways.
Scientific reason behind old indian punishment of holding earlobes and bending knees
Did you ever thought that why the traditional Indian school teachers would give this particular punishment? I believe even majority of the teachers who grant this punishment to their students do not know the real scientific reason behind it. This form of punishment has been in practice in our country since the Ancient Indian Gurukul time and was given to the students who were weak in studies.
That is a different question if now a days teachers grant this punishment for any mistake and not only for studies but originally it was meant for weak students only. Talking about the logic behind this punishment, it is very interesting to know that this particular posture increases the blood flow in the memory cells in brain and synchronizes the right and left side of the brain to improve function and promote calmness, stimulates neural pathways via acupressure points in the earlobe, sharpens intelligence and also helps those with autism, asperger’s syndrome, learning difficulties and behavioral problems. So, if you don’t believe me, just get up and doing this for some 5 to 10 times (a bit tough i know) and later you will understand that body is activated (not in a lazy state) and you will feel some pain too if it’s first time.
Probably we have forgotten this ancient method of increasing memory power but the West is now using is very diligently and they are recommending this posture or exercise to treat many a diseases.
