The Human Energy Field in Relation to
Science, Consciousness, and Health

Gloria Alvino


1. INTRODUCTION

"If we do not expect the unexpected, we will never find it." - Heraclitus

The science and art of medicine that was initially one, and then split into two, are now approaching reunion. The healing science that became traditional medicine and alternate medicine is slowly becoming the healing sciences. The history of this topic is extensive -- extending back thousands of years.

5000 years ago, ancient spiritual tradition of India spoke of a universal energy called prana. This universal energy is the source of all life. The breath of life moves through all forms to give them life. Yogis work with this energy with breathing techniques, meditation, and physical exercise to produce altered states of consciousness and longevity.

3,000 years ago, the ancient Qigong masters in China were practicing their meditative discipline to balance and invigorate the human energy field. They called this vital energy that pervades all forms, both animate and inanimate, Qi The Qi is the vital energy of the body; while gong means the skill of moving this Qi and working with it. Practitioners use mind control to move and control the Qi to not only improve health and longevity, but also to enhance awareness, psychic powers, and spiritual development.

The ancient Qigong masters also developed Tai Chi, Kung Fu, and the martial arts. In addition, they made the first model for acupuncture. Acupuncturists insert needles, or use moxa, or put magnets at specific acupuncture points to balance the yin and yang of the human energy field. When the Qi is balanced, the entity has good health. When the Qi is unbalanced, the entity has poor or impaired health.

The Kabbalah, the Jewish mystical teachings written about 538 B.C., calls these energies the astral light. Later on, Christian paintings and sculptures show a halo around the head of Christ and other spiritual leaders. Similarly, we see this halo on statues and paintings of Buddha, and also see energy or light coming from the fingers of many of the gods of India. In fact, there are references made to the phenomenon of the human energy field (HEF) or the aura of the body, in 97 different cultures, according to John White in his book "Future Science."

The history of medicine similarly reflects a fascination with the observation of the HEF and its study. Back in 500 B.C., the Pythagoreans believed that there is a universal energy pervading all of nature. They taught that its light could effect cures in sick patients.

In the 1100's, Liebault said that humans have an energy that can react on someone else's energy, either at a distance or close by. According to Liebault, a person can have either an unhealthy or a healthy effect on someone else -- just by being present. The HEF of one person may be harmonious, or it maye be discordant with another. The HEF of one person may be nurturing, or it may be draining to the HEF of another.

In the 1800's, Mesmer, the father of modern hypnotism, suggested that a field similar to an electromagnetic field might exist around the human body. Mesmer suggested that the power of this electromagnetic field, which he believed behaved as a fluid, might also be able to exert influence on the field of another.

In the mid-1800's, Count Von Reichenbach spent 30 years experimenting with the human energy field, whcih he called the odic field. He found that this field showed many properties which were similar to the electromagnetic field described by James Clark Maxwell in the early 1880's.

However, Von Reichenbach also showed that with the odic force, like poles attract. In other words, like attracts like. In his work, "Physico-physiological Researches on the Dynamics of Magnetism, Electricity, Heat, Light, Crystallization, and Chemism, In Their Relation to Vital Force", printed in New York in 1851, Von Reichenbach showed that electropositive elements gave his subjects feelings of warmth, and that this produced unpleasant feelings. In the reverse, electronegative elements produced cool and agreeable feelings.

He also found that the odic field could be conducted through a wire. It traveled slowly at 13 feet per second. This speed depended on the density of the wire rather than its conductivity. He showed that part of this odic field could be focused like a light through a lens, while another part of this odic field would flow around the lens, like a candle flame flows around something placed in its path. Air currents would also move this part of the odic field. This suggests a composition similar to a gas. Von Reichenbach's experiments suggest the odic or auric field is energetic, like a light wave, and also particulate, like a fluid. Also, he showed the right side of the body as being a positive pole, and the left as negative. This agrees with the ancient Chinese principles of yin and yang.


2. MODERN STUDIES OF HEF

HEF Photography

Walter Kilner - Interest in the HEF was mounting in the medical community in the 1900's. In 1911. Walter Kilner, M.D., from St. Thomas Hospital in London, reported on seeing the HEF, or aura, as he called it. Looking through glass screens stained with dicyanin dye, he saw a glowing mist around the body in three distinct zones:

1. A 1/4 inch layer closest to skin;

2. A more vaporous layer, 1 inch wide, streaming perpendicularly from the body;

3. A delicate exterior luminosity with indefinite contours, about 6 inches wide.

In his work "The Human Aur" published in New York, 1965, he states that the appearance of the aura differs from person to person, depending on their physical, mental, and emotional states. Kilner actually developed a system of diagnosis based on the consistent differences he found in persons suffering a particular disease. He successfully treated many conditions, including epilepsy, liver disease, tumors, appendicitis, and hysteria. Research based on his work continues to this day in Europe.

Semyon Davidovich Kirlian - In 1939 in Krasnodar, near the Black Sea in Russia, Semyon Davidovich Kirlian, an electrician, and his wife, Valentina Kirlian, a teacher and journalist, became fascinated by the sight of a tiny flash of light which ocurred between the electrodes of an electrotherapy machine and the skin of a patient. Other Russian scientists had also noted this energy, but ignored it.

The equipment and procedures they finally developed were to record on film this luminous energy emanating from the physical body -- the HEF. They invented a new type of photography, and had more than fourteen patents. The original system photographed static images of fingers or leaves. Next, they developed a special optical instrument to observe the motion of this luminous phenomenon. Now they saw the hand as either flashing, sparkling, steadily glowing, or as diminishing particles of light. They also showed the difference in the HEF of a human being harboring a disease that had not yet manifested symptoms!

Radionics - Dr. George De La Warr & Dr. Ruth Drown built instruments to detect radiation from living tissues, and developed Radionics, a system of detection, diagnosis & healing from a distance, using the human energy field. They took photographs using the patient's hair as an antenna. These photographs showed internal diseasees, like tumors and cysts inside the liver, and cancers within the brain. The study of Radionics continues today in England. Reference "Biomagnetism" and "Using Sound Waves To Probe Matter" by De La Warr in England 1965 and 1967.


HEF Microscopic Studies

Dr. Wilhelm Reich, colleague of Freud, in the early 1900's, studied the universal energy field which he called "orgone" in his 1942 book, "The Discovery of the Orgone." He studied the changes or imbalances in the orgone flow in relation to physical and psychological disease. As a psychiatrist, he used traditional methods of analysis in combination with methods of releasing these blockages of the orgone energy, or Qi as Easterners would call it.

Reich built an "accumulator" to concentrate this orgone or energy. With the accumulator, he charged a vacuum discharge tube. This tube then conducted a current of electricity at a potential lower than its normal discharge potential. Reich claimed to increase the nuclear decay rate of a radioisotope by placing it in his orgone accumulator.

During the 1930's to 1950's, Reich experimented with these energies using the latest instrumentation of that time to observe the energy fields of animate and inanimate objects. He used a high power microscope to observe the energy field of microorganisms and human blood cells in the laboratory.

Gaston Naessens - Another more current development to consider is the work of the French microbiologist, Gustave Naessens, now continuing his research with his wife Francisise in Canada. In his hematology studies, Naessens observed in the blood, tiny particles too small to identify with conventional microscopic equipment. He invented a microscope which he called the somatascope. It has a magnification of 30,000 times, and a resolution of 150 angstroms to study these particles of dancing light.

His somatid theory states that cell division cannot take place without the presence of this tiny life force or energy particle that he calls the somatid. Naessens "believes that the somatid is the original spark of life, the pinpoint where energy condenses into matter." According to Naessens, the "somatid represents the manifestation of cosmic energy in a tiny, moving dot of physicality," as printed in "A New Answer to Cancer" in 'Well-Being', September/October ,1993.

HEF Light Emissions Studies

Bio-Energetics - Dr. John Pierrakas and Eva Pierrakas have developed a system of diagnosis and treatment of psychological disorders based on visual and pendulum-derived observations of the HEF. The information from these observations combined with body psychotherapeutic methods eventually developed into Bio-Energetics. The process called Core Energetics was delineated in a publication "The Core Energetics Process", in 1977.

Dr. Pierrakas work suggests that the light emissions from the human body are closely related to health. There is a need to quantify these light emissions with reliable, standardized light measuring instruments to make this available to the medical profession for clinical diagnosis and treatment.

Dr. Richard Dobrin, Dr. John Pierrakos, and Barbara Brennan -- published "Instrumental Measurements of the Human Energy Field" in 1978. They measured the light level of a wave length of around 350 nanometers in a darkroom before, during, and after there were people in that room. Results show a slight increase of light when people are in it. When someone feeling exhausted and full of despair was in the room, the light value actually fell. With a colorizer they were able to show part of the auric field, or the HEF, on black and white television.

Hiroshi Motoyama - has measured low light levels coming from people who have practiced yoga for many years. He did this with a movie camera in a darkroom. Also, he studied the strength of a sender's and a receiver's energy meridians before and after treatment. Most of the time, the sender's energy level dipped and then rose again. Also, the energy at the heart chakra of the sender or healer increased after treating a patient. Refer to his publication "The Functional Relationship Between Yoga Asanas and Acupuncture Meridians" 1979 for exercises that he has developed to impact on the HEF.

Dr. Valorie Hunt - and colleagues at UCLA, published "A Study of Structural Neuromuscular Energy Field and Emotional Approaches", which is a study of the effects of Rolfing on the body and the psyche. She placed electrodes on the skin to record the low millivoltage signals from the body during rolfing sessions. Rosalyn Bruyere observed the auras and recorded her observations of both the rolfer and the patient. Breyere's observations were recorded on the same tape as the electronic data. She described the color, size, and energy movements of the chakras, and auric clouds, or HEF, involved.

Scientists then mathematically analyzed the wave patterns recorded by a Fourier analysis and a sonogram frequency analysis. The wave forms and frequencies reported by Rosalyn Bruyere correlated specifically with the colors reported. When Breyere saw blue in the HEF at a specific location, the electronic measurements would always show the characteristic blue wave form and frequency in the same location.

Hunt repeated this experiment with seven other aura readers. Each of the seven also saw auric colors that correlated with the same frequency wave patterns. In 1988, the results of their research showed these color and frequency correlations. Dr. Hunt says, "Throughout the centuries in which sensitives have seen and described the auric emissions, this is the first objective electronic evidence of frequency, amplitude and time, which validates their subjective observation of color discharge."


HEF Electromagnetic Field Studies

Dr. Robert Becker - of Upstate Medical School. mapped a complex electrical field on the body that was shaped like the body and the central nervous system. He named this field "The Direct Current Control System" in his publication of the same name in 1962. He found that this field changes shape and strength with physiological and psychological changes. Continuing his experiments through 1979, he found particles the size of electrons moving through this field.

Dr. Zheng Ronliang of Lanzhou University in China, in "Scientific Research of Qigong", measured the Qi radiated from the human body by using a biological detector made from a leaf vein connected to a photo quantum device. He studied the Qi emissions of a Qigong master, and the energy field emanations of a clairvoyant.

The energy pulses emanating from the hands of the Qigong Master are very different in nature from that of the clairvoyants. At Shanghai Atomic Nuclear Institute of Academia, Sinica, it was shown that some vital force emanations from Qigong masters seem to have a very low frequency fluctuating carrier wave. Sometimes, Qi was detected as a micro particle flow with a particle size of 60 microns in diameter, and velocity of 20-50 cm/sec.

Dr. Dejan Rakovic and Gordana Vitaliano MD - have conducted extensive experiments in Yugoslavia studying the biophysical nature of consciousness. Dr. Vale is now in Boston, where she founded the Mindwaves' Institute. Dr. Vale 's primary research program is Neural Networks, Brain Waves, and Ionic Structures: A New Biophysical Model for Conscious Systems Processing.

In papers published in the January, 1, and January 15, 1996 issues of 21st Link, Dr. Racovic & Dr. Vale discussed the possibility of HEF being associated with a low dielectric ionic structure with embedded ultra low frequency electromagnetic field. They also discussed the development of a new consciousness-exhibiting, brain-like biocomputer which would have a similar ionic neural network.


HEF Bioplasma Studies

Russian scientists from the Bioinformation Institute of A. S. Popov All-Union Scientific and Technical Society of Radio Technology and Electrical Communications, began a crash program on extra-sensory perception in 1965. They started to use the methods of physicists with their experiments on telepathy. The scientists of this Popov group later announced the discovery that living organisms emit vibrations at a frequency of 300 to 2,000 nanometers. They called this energy the biofield, or bioplasma. They showed that the biofield was stronger when people were more successful at transferring their bioenergy. These findings were confirmed at the Medical Sciences Academy in Moscow, and are supported by research in Germany, Poland, the Netherlands, and Great Britain.

Since the 1950's, Dr. Victor Inyushin at Kazakh University in Russia has also done extensive research in HEF. He suggests the existence of a bioplasmic energy field composed of ions, free protons, and free electrons. He suggests that the bioplasmic energy field is a fifth state of matter. (The four states are solids, liquids, gases, and plasma.) Inyushin's work shows that the bioplasmic particles are constantly renewed by chemical processes in the cells and are in constant motion. There is a balance of positive and negative particles within the bioplasma that is relatively stable. A severe shift in this balance causes a change in the health of the patients or organism. At the same time, in a healthy being, some of this energy or bioplasma is radiated into space. Refer to four of his works: 1. " Questions of Theoretical and Applied Biology," 2." Possibilities of Studying Tissues in High Frequency Discharge," 3. Biological Plasma of Human Organism with Animals," 4. "On the Biological Essence of the Kirlian Effect" 1967-1970.


HEF Studies - Conclusion

Modern science tells us that the human organism is not just a physical structure made of molecules; but like everything else, is composed of energy fields. We are constantly changing, ebbing, and flowing, just like the sea. Scientists are learning to measure these subtle changes. The human energy field is the frontier for modern research, and the development of new diagnostic and treatment systems.

We are constantly swimming in a vast sea of life energy fields, thought fields, and bioplasmic forms, moving about and streaming off the body. We are vibrating; radiating bioplasma itself. People have recognized this phenomenon in the past. Now we are rediscovering it. This is thus not a new phenomenon; but rather, a new observation, a growing awareness, a new perspective, and a renewed interest in studying the intricacies of the unknown.

The Lost Chords Found
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

by Dr. Valerie V. Hunt

The human energy field both permeates the entire body and radiates to the outside, inches to feet beyond the body's surface. This field has been validated in scientific laboratories as light emissions using photometers and color filters, as Dr. Valerie Hunt describes in her book Infinite Mind. During a research that harnessed the complex wave forms and resonance that connect us to our source, Dr. Valerie Hunt found that the human energy field vibrations were as much as 1000 times higher frequency than the electrical signals of nerve and muscle, © Rassouli

with continuous, dynamic modulation,

unlike the pulsating signals of the nervous system.

These signals were recorded from the body's surface using special high frequency instruments with sensors placed over selected spots on the joints and the hollow areas of the trunk, abdomen and head.
To determine the color correlated with these signals, Dr. Hunt had eight different aura readers observe the field around the body of the subjects, while the instruments recorded the signals.
The resulting data were submitted to Fourier frequency analysis to determine the frequency spectrum of each color.
Wave shape comparison differentiated the colors, and voice spectrogram analytic procedures further tested their purity.
The resulting vibrations were in the audible range of frequencies, and when amplified they could be easily heard and differentiated. Even with the intensity lowered to a subliminal sound, they were still felt in the soft body tissue and the hollow areas of the head, spine, chest and abdomen. The effects of these vibrations (real and unaltered except for amplification to the audible range) are universal and profound, yet subtle and do not require loudness. The vibrations are believed to come from the atomic and subatomic molecular activity of the human cells: quantum physics has described that all matter, which occupies space, contains potential atomic energy that is released in small quantities as electrons spin off. An interesting characteristic about energy emission from any objects is that it stays somewhat organized into fields: it has its own integrity and does not randomly dissipate. However, living substances emit a higher frequency and with more dynamic pattern changes than inert substances. Body vibrations are like communal music, with the bodies being both transmitters and receivers of sounds.




The sounds of the human energy field are signals broadcast from

the entire body and are referent sounds perceived simultaneously

with all outer world sounds.

Human energy field vibrations are not pure colors: the colors of the field change rapidly based upon our will and our needs, so that at any given time there may be only one or a few colors manifested. Generally individuals have a unique, consistent pattern of limited colors and even more often, these colors are mixed and unclear, coming from a narrow range of vibrations. Only a person in peak health and performance showed the presence of all the colors of the human spectrum, clear ad distinct. During her research Dr. Hunt designed many situations to understand the specific meaning of the five different vibrational spectrums, and their profound emotional, psychological and behavioral effects.

Red-orange-amber


This warm, vibrant, stimulating vibrational spectrum is more prevalent in the following situations:

In young people who are physically active.
Strenuous, strong athletic activity seems to stimulate red-orange, as does vigorous primitive dance rituals.
With assertive, aggressive or angry emotional expression. Also happiness and joy are common correlates, while this color spectrum is absent in sadness, weakness, illness and depression.
Following strong sensory stimulus from light, sound, noxious odors or pain, as though the body is in alert.
After further testing, the red-orange-amber spectrum appears to have a positive biofeedback effect on the physical body, decreasing muscle weakness and fatigue and encouraging health, vigor and strength. Those recovering from illness or debilitating diseases respond brilliantly to the increased stimulation. A marked improvement is also noticed for those suffering from hypo diseases.

This spectrum is the biological, material, sensitive flow with the realities of the universe, encoded by the existence of life in the physical world. Listening to it helps vitalize and activate the body, it excites and stimulates the emotions and enhances the motivation to accomplish.

Blue-violet-mauve


This cool soothing spectrum is present during relaxation and in healthy states of pensiveness, quiet thought, spirituality and meditation. It accompanies well-being and appears in slow, repetitive work, or receptive, listening states. It dramatically manifests also in the second wind of endurance athletics, when the body relaxes and all systems operate at maximum efficiency.


This spectrum quiets a hyperactive body and emotions, clearing the thought process and relieving hypertension conditions (elevated blood pressure, inflammatory states of the skin). It assists in relieving constriction, ordinary stress and tension from overwork by expanding the body and mind.




Yellow-green-amber


This middle vibrations appear to be transition colors that assist people to change from one state to another. It had great effects on the neural tuning of all senses, supporting the creating, planning, relating, and interfacing processes. These colors accompany a purer and more elaborate awareness, and are therefore most helpful for accomplishment in creative thinking, problem solving with quickened response, elaborate imagery, facilitating learning and inducing a quiet expectancy, an anticipation of change.




Rainbow


This spectrum includes all the color vibrations of the white light, completely balanced without weaknesses or strengths. It fills the air with coherent fullness to offset the confusing electromagnetic vibrations and sound contaminations that bombard the urban man.




Blue-white–gold


This highest human vibration spectrum is like the diamond to a stone. Resembling the oscillations of plasma surrounding spacecrafts, the sounds of outer space, it appears to drive the will to find a home at another level.


As with music, the highest frequencies seem to have the greatest recharging effects. The blue-white-gold sounds carry the consciousness expanding spectrums characteristics of the requiems, chorals and great religious music. The awareness that carries thought is here expanded and elevated from the material world into the spiritual. These are the sounds of refreshment and regeneration.

The importance of human energy field sound as biofeedback is becoming increasingly known: while the usual feedback stimulus is from nerve activity and so its primary effects are on the muscular and circulatory system with limited effect upon the motivational and emotional states, human energy field sounds affect the entire organism, its capabilities and its feeling states. Now available both on tapes or CDs, they can be experienced at any time and place. We have also learned from biofeedback studies that auditory feedback is the most accurate and effective of all, as it apparently provides an energy source directly to the brain.


Natural spas have used ultra violet radiation, heat, herbal and mineral water vibrations for centuries.


Physical medicine has developed instruments to create ultrasounds and heat waves to affect deep tissue healing, and they are using low frequency DC vibrations from batteries to rapidly heal non-union fractures.


Small magnets hasten healing of abrasions, cuts, burns, incisions, and inflammatory debilities.


The human energy fields sounds, like magnets, natural foods and homeopathic medicine, naturally assist the body to maintain health or during a healing process. When listening to them, rather than hearing them with your ears, sense the vibrations in your body, especially the hollow areas of your head, trunk and bones.


The ideas from basic biology that life forms are complex energy exchange systems is faster becoming the frontier of medicine, psychology, education and communication. We also know from physics that human exists, grows, works and changes in complex, interacting electromagnetic fields, an environment as basic as the air we breathe or the water we drink. We can then greatly improve health, well-being and performance by consciously introducing in any way possible a coherent, high-frequency, natural field or sound. The applications of bio-energy sound vibrations appear unlimited.







Dr. Valerie Hunt is foremost in scientific research of the human energy field. Her latest book Infinite Mind: Science of the Human Vibrations of Consciousness presents the first comprehensive human energy field model based on 25 years of sophisticated electronic field research and extensive clinical studies. It clarifies metaphysical deductions from physics, evaluates clinical suppositions, and should supersede the ancient inadequate explanations of the past. www.bioenergyfields.org





The Science of Human Vibrations


Following centuries of scientific rationalism which downplay the spiritual vision of human beings - presenting a bio-chemical view of humans as biological machines, humans as animals, humans as chemistry - recent scientific trailblazing by energy field healing pioneer Dr. Valerie Hunt may redefine the parameters of what it means to be human. Having received a $US 4 million grant to investigate the "scalar waves" used by psychic surgeons, Dr. Hunt is exploring a health model which threatens to shape a paradigm of life incorporating physics, biochemistry, molecular biology and medicine in the 21st Century.

Imagine being able to expose serious oncoming illnesses months to years before they are found by analysing people's electronic vibrations, which, it has been proven, are more unique to the individual than fingerprints.
Or utilising atomic level energy to literally fix disease by manipulating the body's molecular energy.
Or being advised to live near electric telegraph poles which had caused leukemia in some people, in order that your healthy energy field receives a good dose of "stimulation" so that your thoughts could enter into the realms of higher consciousness - arousing extended states of insight, imagination, creativity and spirit.
If the earth has magnetic forces, why shouldn't living human beings be charged with energy? Bioscience research lags far behind the atmospheric sciences, yet sources of universal magnetism exist at all levels of nature. Chemicals, minerals and atoms possess electrons wherever they are found, but energy is especially pronounced in living beings. As Dr Valerie Hunt says, "we, like all living matter, are bundles of electrically charged matter as nuclear physics has demonstrated."

Insight, imagination, creativity and spirit do not exist in brain tissue, Dr Hunt writes in her recent book, Infinite Mind, the Science of the Human Vibrations of Consciousness. Holding advanced degrees in Psychology and Physiological Science from Columbia University, Dr Hunt became exasperated with the chemical medical model which sought to reduce human thinking to a function of neuropeptides and which was stagnating in neuromuscular limitations.
"I was very locked into the brain until I got working in other states of consciousness which cannot be explained by the brain," Dr Hunt says down the line from California. "The brain handles many of the biological things but it doesn't handle the thing which we are saying is the highest level of human consciousness.
"It is the mind which experiences and it is the brain which records the experience ... the brain can store memory, but it is the mind which makes decisions. The mind is independent and contains the will of humankind.
"In other words, the mind takes the initiative in exploring the environment, enters into transactions and is aware of what is going on ... it comprehends, reasons, has judgement and is aware of self.
"The mind is the stream of consciousness."

SCIENCE AND THE ENERGY FIELD

Quantum physics tells us that material substances are composed not only of observable matter, but also more subtle field components with organized energy patterns, boundaries and definitions. The deeper one probes into physical substance the more one encounters the underlying electrical energy or the energy field. All material substances, tree, rock or animal, have electrical fields because all are composed of particles, atoms and cells. Each of these fields is in constant dynamic equilibrium. The less dense a substance, the more energetic the field with a greater density to create a force.
As Dr Valerie Hunt says, the energy field is the primary source of the interaction of a person with her/his environment. Whatever happens to you, it is your field that gets influenced ahead of anything in the nervous system or brain.
"Our energy field data carries one thousand to ten thousand greater frequency information per second than neurological frequency data. Our energy field carries the same times amount more information about the health of our body, or the disease of our body than any other neurological or pathological information from our chemistry or tissues.
"A rich, stable energy field is a healthy field," Dr Hunt summarizes.
"The energy fields of healthy people are coherent, synchronous, but unwell people's auras are demonstrably incoherent.
"What I have found by measuring people's auras is that disease begins in the energy field and anchors in the cells.
"If disease begins in the field, then health should also begin in the field. The field should be our place of primary diagnosis.

HARNESSING ENVIRONMENTAL ELECTROMAGNETISM

Valerie Hunt's latest publication is called Mind Mastery Meditations, a workbook which shows people how to increase their energy frequencies, deal with imagery from pain, trauma, surgery and illness, and to prepare the field for self-healing such conditions as neurosensory degeneration, neuromuscular injuries and fractures, hyperactive diseases and hypodeficiency diseases. While grounded in scientific evidence, the text ventures into techniques for imaging your spiritual path, experiencing the divine light, telepathic interactions with other people's electronic fields, and using the sixth sense to become more in tune with "the biocosmic confluence", sensing the energies of the atmosphere, stratosphere and ionoshere as well as that of earth, water and living organisms.
What is the basis, however, for her proclamations of the all-important enormous healing potential of the human energy field?
"If I can start at the point of environmental electrical forces, which, in this electronic age, are the strongest, highest and richest in the history of our planet. Electromagnetism is spewed out constantly by the radio and TV stations, high tension power lines, industrial electronics and the many household appliances and gadgets which surround us.
"Now, while most reports point out the destructive aspects of electronic contamination, I believe there are both positive and negative effects. To adapt to a more volatile electronic soup, a higher vibrational mix, challenges the human field to broaden its spectrum.
"Unsuccessful adaptation to higher levels of environmental electromagnetism always leaves an incoherent random field, one in which the edge of chaos has been exceeded, leading to turmoil.
"Humans, of all the animals, gravitate towards stress. Stress taxes the organisation of our fields and in positive cases, leads to greater coherency and higher refinement.
"If we look at the second law of thermodynamics in which all matter progresses from organisation to disorganisation and then to turmoil, according to this law, humans from birth progress to disorganisation and finally to death. But when energy was introduced into any field, its complexity increases, it doesn't disintegrate rapidly by entropy.
"So when energy is introduced into the body, in becoming more refined it moves upward towards light and life and away from death.
"Perhaps this explains the long lives of symphony conductors, or how living tissue can regenerate."
Dr Hunt also writes in Infinite Mind about how crashing waves deliver a mammoth amount of energy to shoreline plants - energy estimated to be fifteen times more powerful than that provided by the sun. Such heightened energy fields allows marine organisms, algae and mussel beds to maintain exceptionally high productivity, even greater than that which occurs in rainforests. With the wave action facilitating the flow of light and nutrients, the additional creating of negative ion particles from the tumbling water also amps up the electromagnetic pool, rendering beachgoers totally invigorated.

WHAT MYSTICS ALWAYS KNEW

Yet what about within the human body? It's on this scientifically neglected point that the ancients' intuitive knowledge is worth re-evaluating. Ancient Chinese theory tells of an invisible meridian system that runs deeply through the tissues of the body. Through these meridians pass nutritive energy known to the Chinese as "ch'i". The ch'i energy enters the body through the acupuncture points and flows to deeper organ structures bringing life-giving nourishment of a subtle energetic nature. The Chinese also feel that when the flow of energy to the organs becomes blocked or imbalanced, dysfunction of the organ system will occur.
Similarly, ancient texts of Indian yogic literature speak of special energy centres referred to as "chakras" from the Sanskrit meaning "wheels". Anatomically, each of the seven major chakras is associated with a major nerve plexus and a major endocrine gland. Connecting the chakras are fine subtle-energetic channels called "nadis" which various sources have described as numbering up to 72,000. While Dr Hunt frequently records her data from the areas over the chakras, she is quick to point out that her findings reveal the human energy field as a more unified entity.
"I see the whole field and we are not so concerned about the specifics of the field as we are the total pattern of the thing. We could take colours and information from the tip of the finger or toe, but it just happens that the amplitude is not quite strong enough.
"Historically in the West, in relying on available technology to scientifically test and validate various phenomena, during the time when we haven't been able to measure the fine continuous signal information of bioenergy fields, the chakras and meridians were ignored by scientists as mystical constructs of primitive Eastern cultures.
"Increasingly with a new math of nature, with fractals and algorithmic formulas, it's now possible to describe dynamic, non-periodic, continuous vibrations like those from bio-energy field recordings."

PSYCHIC SURGERY

"At some level, all material boundaries are permeable. Electromagnetic energy in the form of waves constitutes information circuits which can penetrate physical boundaries and like worm holes, flow through and back into the environment."
"Now we're working on psychic surgery in which we're not concerned with the ordinary drama of psychic surgery, but we want to know if they get inside the body and how do they get there, because this is the physiological thing that we don't understand.
"I've been working with them and they do go inside the body. I'm not concerned at this stage whether they cure the body or don't cure the body, that's the clinical thing.
"I'm concerned with what is the phenomenon that causes them to open the body and really it's basically bloodless, it does not tear up the body and we have found what it is: it's a scalar wave.
"It's probably the most important thing I've ever discovered.
"It's a standing wave, it's not a wave that goes anywhere, it has a standing vibration and it's created when two electronic waves of the same frequency
enter a mobius coil, which is a coil that shoots energy upwards, and the body is a mobius coil when in its ovaloid shape."
"This particular wave separates tissues and atoms, because as it expands outward, it just expands whatever tissue there is, it takes away the compression on the atoms and therefore the compression on the molecules and therefore on the cells. When this is taken away, muscle tension goes, the compression of nerves goes, which means pain - the compression on blood vessels which means poor circulation and the compression on the lymphatics which carries the immune system. So it allows the body to take care of itself.
"As soon as the laboratory equipment comes in, we will be mechanically creating scalar waves and putting them on the inside of the body with the help of scalar physicists.
"We then can start using this on animals with veterinarians who are doing surgery, let the psychic surgeons show them how to get into the body when the tissues are separated and if it works with animals, we will go to humans and we basically have the surgeons ready to start.

INFINITE MIND, UNIVERSAL SOUL

Perhaps the significance of Dr Valerie Hunt's work is, as one scientific journal writer commented, "comparable to the discovery of penicillin and the deciphering of the DNA code".
As for skeptics, people who accept their television and radios working via transmitted waves, but who won't accept the vast complexity of their own pulsating being, Dr Hunt isn't wasting any part of her 81 years so far, on those types.
"The human mind is the greatest piece of equipment we have ever had, and everything we have ever done in science since is a replication of what can happen in the human mind. So, when we doubt telepathy, knowing, intuition, we'd better drop it. This will be standard information in the future."
"I don't worry about everyone else, I care about only those visionaries who are able to comprehend this ... the absolute truth and who will perpetuate it, expecting that the world is not going to change immediately.
"But the interesting thing is when you come in with that level of truth, doubters may fight you for a while - they don't fight me because I don't argue with them - but even they, deep down, know the truth."
"Someone has to break the model which has kept us so limited. When people ask, what do you do, I say I change the model of what is a human being."

INFINITE MIND: THERE'S MORE ...

A significant disease-maker causing biological and DNA damage is extremely low frequency (ELF) power sources which leak contamination in our homes and cars.

Chronic fatigue syndrome isn't a chemical imbalance, but an energy field problem.

Our energy fields fit into the patterns of all-life called chaos. Chaos is an elaborate mix of extremely complex patterns. Ageing is the process of losing some of the complexity, narrowing our frequency and moving towards entropy.

The human field both permeates the entire body and radiates several inches to feet from the body surface.

Noise is anti-coherent energy which can drain people's energy. However, more debilitating than the actual decibel level of noise at large gatherings is the contamination of so many scattered yet concentrated energy fields.

The key to overcoming such situations is to develop field immunity to them, to not transact your energy. Homoeopathic solutions work better the more diluted they are, so that the healing agents have more "elbow room" in which the medicine molecule can resonate.
