Los Angeles Author Maps a Path Inward Through the Brain's Own Anatomy

Los Angeles author Richard Johnson, founder of Divine Mind 1.2, has released The Universal Principle Made Visible, an ebook that uses the brain's ventricular system as an anchor for a simple, breath-paced daily meditation.

Los Angeles, United States, October 20, 2026 /PressCable/ -- LOS ANGELES, CA. Author Richard Johnson, founder of Divine Mind 1.2, has released The Universal Principle Made Visible, an ebook that brings meditation back to something every person already carries: the ventricles at the center of the brain and the cerebrospinal fluid that moves through them.

Johnson spent about 30 years studying meditation, the brain, and the writings of the world's spiritual teachers. The book is the result of that study. Instead of asking readers to adopt a new belief, it gives them a real place to rest their attention, one they can find on any anatomy chart.

A Practice Built on the Body

The method in the book is called the Ventricle System Method. It begins with the breath. Readers take a slow inhale, hold it for 15 to 20 seconds while silently giving thanks for the exhale, then let the breath go slowly. This is repeated three times to settle the mind into gratitude.

From there, attention moves slowly up the spine, one vertebra at a time, pausing at the heart space in the middle of the back and continuing to the place where the spine meets the skull. The practice then follows the path of the cerebrospinal fluid through the fourth ventricle and the cerebral aqueduct and into the third ventricle at the very center of the brain, a space ancient traditions called the Cave of Brahma. Readers rest there for about three minutes.

The book also explores the lateral ventricles, the paired chambers on either side of the brain. Johnson uses them to show how the habit of seeing everything as right or wrong can grow from the brain treating its two halves as separate. A simple grounding exercise, gently rubbing the thumb and index finger of one hand while focusing on the opposite side of the brain, helps bring both halves back into balance before the practice closes in gratitude.

A Shepherd, Not a Guru

Johnson does not present himself as a guru. He describes his role as a shepherd, someone who points readers back toward a home they already have. The book draws on teachers such as Rumi, Howard Thurman, Krishnamurti, Teilhard de Chardin and the Vedic tradition, and pairs their insight with plain anatomy so the practice stays grounded and easy to repeat.

The result is a short daily meditation that anyone can try, whether they come from a spiritual background or simply want a calmer, more focused mind.

Russia to host 2030 world weightlifting champs in Olympic federation first

PARIS, France — Moscow was announced Sunday as host of the 2030 world weightlifting championships, the sport's governing body becoming the first Olympic federation to hand Russia global staging rights since 2022. No world championships in an Olympic sport, summer or winter, have been held in Russia since the start of the war against Ukraine. The 2025 world swimming champs, initially attributed to the Russian city of Kazan, were moved to Singapore. "Concerning the IWF (Senior) World Championships in 2029, it will be staged in Ahmedabad (India), and Moscow (Russia) will host the 2030 edition," the International Weightlifting Federation (IWF) said in a statement. IWF general secretary Jose Quinones added that "all the bids we received were excellent and we are sure that the championships in your respective countries will be a huge success". In a post on Telegram, Russian Weightlifting Federation president Aleksandr Vinokurov thanked the IWF "for their trust", with the 2030 world champs also serving as a qualifying event for the 2032 Olympic Games. "Russia has all the necessary experience and capabilities to host competitions of the highest level," he said. "Moscow has repeatedly staged major international sporting events and has modern infrastructure." The federation toasted its success in snagging the hosting rights. "The Russian Weightlifting Federation is the first Olympic sports federation to succeed in bringing a top-level official competition back to the country in many years," it said. The decision to name Moscow as the host is a ground-breaking one and comes in the wake of the International Olympic Committee (IOC) announcing a pathway for Russian athletes to compete in international competition. A state-sponsored doping program implemented, according to the World Anti-Doping Agency, at the 2014 Sochi Winter Olympic Games, and the assault on Ukraine launched by President Vladimir Putin in 2022 resulted in Russians competing in various guises at international competition, most recently as Individual Neutral Athletes. However, on July 7 Russia came in from the cold when the IOC eased restrictions on Russian athletes and opened a pathway for them to compete in qualifying events for the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics. A furious Ukraine filed an appeal to the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) requesting that the IOC decision be annulled.
