A friend of mine told me that he read in an Osho book that the handstand (Adho Mukha Vrksasana) position is harmful over the years. Osho said that the yogi's he met who did this position had a strong body but a damaged mind/brain. Now, i want to know if this claim has any substantial truth in it and what's you opinion on the latter.

Just asking.

Hail Satan
Hail the Gods
Hail the Daemons of Elysium

er.. it depends on how long you do the handstand.

If they have damaged brains, then so must the gymnasts. And we all know that they do not seem to be having brain damage, except for some that might be taking steroids.
