When all this became clear to me, I understood that the key was not in the volume
of the cranium or in the number of neurons, not at all! The number of neurons is
important only at the primary phase of the origin of mind, because mind originates only
when a certain number of neurons begin to interact. A minimal number of interactive
neurons are extremely important at the very initial stage of development, but not more.

When necessary and sufficient conditions of the origin of mind are fulfilled , these
neurons stop acting as the determining factor.

When the origin of mind has taken place, the other material bodies of neurons, the

second and especially the third (also the fourth, fifth and higher if there are any) begin
to play the determining part. These material bodies are also a part of the human brain,
but most people are not even aware of their presence. But, as the saying goes, “ignorance
of the law is no excuse for breaking it.” In this case the lack of knowledge about the laws
of nature does not change their modus operandi.
When all this cleared up for me, I had a "crazy" thought! If the number of physically
dense neurons in the human brain is limited by the size of its cranium, then there are no
skulls at other levels of the brain, which means that one can develop one's brain by
developing other levels of brain neurons, while the number of neurons in the cranium
remains same. Thus, it became possible to overcome a seemingly insurmountable
obstacle - the limitation of the volume of the human brain due to the size of the cranium!
I had a thought - if it is impossible to increase the brain on a physically dense level, then
why not change the size of the brain at other levels ?! After all, at other levels of the
brain there is no skull, which means that there are practically no obstacles to increasing
the size of the brain at other material levels. No sooner said than done! "Rabbit" for the
next experience, as always, I became myself. Without delaying the matter, I embarked
on the embodiment of my new idea. Taking for the sample the already existing material
bodies of their own neurons, I began to increase the volume of my brain at other material
levels. Increased at first a little ... and began to observe! I did not experience anything
unexpected or unpleasant, I did not fall under the "weight" of my new brain, and decided,
without much thought, to continue my experiment to increase the size of my brain at
other levels.
I first increased its size to the size of ... the planet and began to observe. No side
effects were observed, and this prompted me to think, and why not increase the size of
my brain and beyond. If it is possible to increase the size of the brain at other levels to
the size of the planet, then why not make it the size of the solar system, our galaxy, etc.
And as it sounds incredible, I did it. And if you think and discard the templates imposed
on us, why not. Who said and proved that this is impossible ?! Nobody ever did it! At
least, I have never read anything like this and have not heard anything.
Certainly, I read and heard far from everything, but I think that, if this ever
happened, it must be reflected in legends and myths. But I could not find anything of the
kind until now. And even if anyone tried to do this kind of thing and failed, and I knew
about it, I would not give up trying. Someone's unsuccessful attempt does not mean that
my attempt should fail. Therefore I had no doubt that I should do this. And the words

that it is impossible because it just is, or that I was nuts, could never stop me.

I never was afraid to go against the current and my own experience several times
showed me that I could successfully do something supposedly impossible even though
