Meditation definitely helps in increasing the brain usage.

normally we use 10% of the brain and rest is remained unused.

With meditation a new dimension opens and it slowly grows as our meditative energy starts increasing.

but for this to happen, we should practice meditation in a right way as many people take concentration, contemplation or prayer as meditation.
