He made a record by running 1 mile in 3 min and 59 sec. Strangely within the end of that year more than 32 people could run 1 mile in less than 4 minutes and within next 2 years more than 300 people could achieve this feat. Physiologist around the world got interested to know the science behind the strange fact that no body could run a mile in less than 4 minutes in last 100 year but the moment one person achieved it, how more than 300 people could duplicate it in less than 2 years. Then the scientist discovered one of most important principle of human behaviour i.e. if human brain is told about the possiblies and achievement made by others than that reference opens of many mysterious door of possibilities and possibilities of duplicating the feat or achievement become much higher.

Biswaroop Roy Chowdhury the founder of India Book of Records said “ In 1997 after passing out as a production Engineer from Punjab Engineering College I wanted to pursue my career in the field of mind training but there is no university where I could showcase my talent and get a certificate or degree to prove my excellence in the field of mind training then I came across Limca Book of Records -1997 and a made a national record of memorizing a shuffled pack of playing cards in 3 minutes and 54 sec. I could attract a local media attention through the achievement and that led to a kick start my unusual career of mind training”. In India and in most of the countries only a few conventional sports and activities are been recognized by the government bodies and universities etc. This means people with some talent other than recognized field do not have any forum or a platform for recognition and their motivation to pursue something which is really close to their heart die soon.
