Kalpa in the Physiology According to the research of Professor Tony Nader, in Human Physiology: Expression of Veda and the Vedic Literature, 4th Edition, Maharishi Vedic University, Vlodrop, Holland, 2000, Kalpa is represented in the physiology by the various structures in the brain that together constitute the limbic system. The following excerpts are taken from Anatomy of the Human Body, 20th Edition, Henry Gray and Warren Lewis, Lea & Febiger, Philadelphia, 1918, pp. 746-869.
