The Human Electromagnetic Energy Field:
Its Relationship to Interpersonal Communication
William L Smith eic@scitechperspectives.co.uk
Abstract: If there is one single concept that helps to explain much about human interpersonal communication, it is the concept that humanity has an inherent connection with its environment, the basis of which is human consciousness itself, something which is now quantifiable, at least on a theoretical basis. The electric charges coursing through the human brain are measurable by means of an electroencephalogram. Humans thus have an electromagnetic energy field. As a result of this, the human body could act as an aerial that has the potential for simultaneous transmission and reception of energy with its environment (Samways, 1992).
Keywords: consciousness, superstring, electromagnetic energy.
Introduction
Thoughts and emotion can be considered energy in theoretical terms. Most often, they occur as a result of the stimuli experienced. Stimuli pass through sensory memory and are carried by the nervous system to the brain, where associations are made between short-term and long-term memory, thereby passing through various environmental and genetic filters before manifesting as a behavioral response (see Figure 1).1 The behavior displayed as a result thereof is something that can be superficially studied in terms of interpersonal communication.
Because of its fundamental nature, not to make this connection is, at best, to engage in cognitive dissonance. At worst, it is to engage in the kind of hubris that Meyer did when he referred to emotions as a whale amongst fishes.2
The interrelationship between the human electromagnetic field and interpersonal communication needs to be researched in order to elucidate more precisely how and why this occurs. Criteria need to be devised in order to create a logical framework for research, as well as a device capable of measuring this phenomenon in a setting where at least two people are present – in a way that seeks to integrate harmoniously the physical and social sciences. A tentative effort at establishing an experimental method in order to find a means of measuring this phenomenon will be explored here.
Consciousness
The single most important concept to comprehend is that human consciousness is now a theoretically quantifiable phenomenon and at least partially measurable as an electromagnetic energy field radiating out from the human body. Sarfatti defines human consciousness with a mathematical equation.3
The basis for Sarfatti’s postulation can be found in the superstring theory of physics.4 In this theory of physics, it is asserted that the most fundamental particles of matter – for instance, protons, electrons and neutrons – are composed of infinitesimally small vibrating strings which combine with other strings of similar resonance. In this case, infinitesimally small would be about 100 billion billion times smaller than a proton.4
Analogous to the strings on a musical instrument such as the violin or cello, they vibrate at various frequencies, allowing for combination and re-combination of resonant strings in order to form the particles of matter with which we are familiar (i.e., electrons, protons, neutrons, etc.) that form the molecules which, in turn, form the ‘solid’ world with which we are intimately familiar.4
Sarfatti demonstrates the interaction of mind fields on matter and vice versa in the figure below. Without the existence of an electromagnetic field emanating from the human body, Sarfatti’s use of the Bohm Ontology and subsequent descriptions of wave fields would not be possible. Without the combination of resonant strings in such a way as to create either matter or the mind field as Sarfatti describes, which is neither matter, nor consciousness, nor the electricity coursing through a human body with a consciousness that is at least aware of its physical surroundings would exist.
Figure 1
Figure 1. Per a drawing from Dr Jack Sarfatti dated February 16, 2001, and sent to the author that date. The Bohm Ontology pictures a Wave Landscape, attached to which is a Particle System Point. The Wave Landscape to which he refers is human consciousness, while a Particle System Point is matter.
Wave Landscape
Particle System Point
For one Wave Landscape acting on a Particle System Point, the frequency is 10^19 Hz.
For a Particle System Point acting on the Wave Landscape, the frequency is ¼ 10^-17 Hz.
For two Wave Landscapes acting on two Particle System Points, the frequency is ½ 10^19 Hz.
For two Particle System Points acting on two Wave Landscapes, the frequency is 2/4 x 10^-17 Hz.
For three Wave Landscapes acting on three Particle System Points, the frequency is 1/3 10^19 Hz.
For three Particle System Points acting on three Wave Landscapes, the frequency is ¾ x 10^-17 Hz.
Note the lower energy frequency that Dr. Sarfatti assigns for the Particle System Point, as compared to the Wave Landscape.
Electricity moves throughout the human nervous system, as evidenced by the movement of electricity from, say, a fingertip at the distal end to the human brain. A basic undergraduate human anatomy and physiology text such as Marieb’s (1995, pp. 348-349: Table 11.1, lower portion) serves to illustrate this point when discussing the central nervous system.5 The existence of the human body’s electromagnetic energy field is also partly measurable by means of an electroencephalogram (EEG). By measuring the electrical flux, it is possible to get a picture of an individual’s cerebral electric waves and thereby ascertain whether or not someone in a comatose vegetative state is able to return to full consciousness,6 or if someone is either alive or dead as determined by a lack of brain activity, is one of several indicators of death.1,7 Moreover, electricity within the human body can be measured by hooking a voltmeter up to a neuron. A charge of approximately -70 mV is recorded when one electrode rests on the outer surface and the other is inserted into the neuron itself.5
Thoughts can indeed be perceived as a form of energy in the most fundamental of senses, not strictly speaking, in the sense that Marieb describes as action potentials, but more in the sense of graded potentials ‘because their magnitude varies directly with the intensity or strength of the stimulus.5 The more intense the stimulus, the greater the voltage changes and the farther the current flows.5
To recap, from the angle of superstring theory, thoughts can be perceived as being composed of infinitesimally small, vibrating strings that have come together with strings of comparable frequency resonance. These strings, in turn, form larger subatomic and atomic building blocks of matter (i.e., electrons and neutrons), which in this case are the components of the electricity that makes for human consciousness and the concomitant resonating energy field emanating from a given human body as mentioned above.
If thoughts did not exist as some form of energy, they could neither be formulated as, say, questions, nor directed towards specific objectives or persons as either prayers or telekinesis, and nor could they create the energy fields Sarfatti discusses in Figure 1 above.
Sarfatti has demonstrated that consciousness is at least theoretically quantifiable in mathematical terms.3 A fundamental result of possessing consciousness is the existence of a measurable electromagnetic field in either a single neuron, by means of an EEG, or in the sense Machado discussed as being either alive or dead due to the presence or lack of human brain activity.7 As Samways notes, the human body is an aerial.8 Just as with any radio transceiver connected to an aerial, the human body may be able to transmit and receive energy from the environment around it, the extreme being the universe/cosmos.
The oneness of mindbody and how it may be bundled as vibrating energy that is interconnected to everything else in the universe, is the basis of what may be called the "Cosmic Connection". Furthermore, vibrating bundles of energy (i.e., vibrating strings of mutual harmonic resonance that have coalesced to form an electromagnetic field operating at a given frequency — not unlike a frequency for a radio station, for instance) create fields of influence around their physical selves.8
A physical manifestation of the energy of thoughts is the instincts and/or emotions as they elicit as a response to a specific stimulus. James (1890/1950) notes:
"In speaking of the instincts it has been impossible to keep them separate from the emotional excitements which go with them. Objects of rage, love, fear, etc., not only prompt a man to outward deeds, but provoke characteristic alterations in his attitude and visage, and affect his breathing, circulation, and other organic functions in specific ways. … Instinctive reactions and emotional expressions thus shade imperceptibly into each other. Every object that excites an instinct excites an emotion as well [emphasis as found in text]….Emotional reactions are often excited by objects with which we have no practical dealings…."9
As with instincts, so with emotions: the mere memory or imagination of an object may suffice to liberate the excitement.9 From a somewhat different approach, Nielsen (1997) concurs10:
"Emotional processing involves weighing the relative significance to an organized set of goal priorities of competing internal and external cues and coordinating thought and behavior in response to these calculations. Steps in the calculation process are "sprung over" by built-in evaluative mechanisms acquired over evolutionary history. By looking at what captures human attention and how this guides ongoing behavior, we can come to understand how these evaluative mechanisms function."
Dossey (1993) also substantiates this point:
"David McLelland, Ph.D., of Harvard Medical School, has demonstrated the power of love to make the body healthier through what he calls the "Mother Teresa effect." He showed a group of Harvard students a documentary of Mother Teresa ministering lovingly to the sick, and measured the levels of immunoglobulin A (IgA) in their saliva before and after seeing the film. (IgA is an antibody active against viral infections such as colds.) IgA levels rose significantly in the students, even in many of those who considered Mother Teresa "too religious" or a fake…."11
From the perspective of contention-scheduling, Nielsen (1997) explicates:
"Contention-scheduling is thought to be triggered by cues which activate schemata and cues which govern the internal prioritizing of schemata according to organismic priorities. This prioritizing of goals sets up expectancies, intentions and rules which can remain operative within the contention-scheduling system in the absence of explicit behavioral triggers. Thus while currently activated schemata are more likely to pick up cues than inactive ones and hence more likely to generate the behaviors that normally follow from their activation, when situations arise that are relevant to latent goals and intentions, appropriate behaviors can be activated."10
To recap: consciousness is essentially composed of miniscule resonating strings that create an electromagnetic field that resonates at a particular frequency that can be mathematically quantified – at least in a theoretical sense – the human body is indeed an aerial that can transmit and receive energy. Thoughts and their concomitant energy do have an outlet by means of visible emotional expression and the radiation of an electromagnetic (EM) field. With this groundwork laid, it is now possible to postulate how these concepts tie in with interpersonal communication.
The Interpersonal Communication Connection
A cursory examination of interpersonal communication literature would appear to belie the veracity of the contention that there is a relationship between superstring theory, Dr Jack Sarfatti’s post-quantum mechanics, human EM energy fields, and cognitive psychological research since at least 1890. It is only on a superficial level that the connection may not apparent.
The connection lies in what Allspach calls the interpsychic dimension: first, the expression of emotions inherent in the daily interactions that occur between two or more humans; and second, in what Allspach calls the intrapsychic occurrences, where the only interaction in question occurs with the person experiencing an emotional reaction to a given stimulus (i.e., receiving a bill in the mail that is astronomical in size or hearing a message left on an answering machine bearing news of a tragic familial event).12 Essentially, the issue can be reduced, in its most basic form, to stimulus/response in both cases.
Duck devotes Chapter 7 of his book to the influence a support group, or lack thereof, has on an individual’s physical and mental state of wellbeing, a connection that Smith (see Figure 1) makes as well when discussing how psychopathology occurs.1,13 Along with words and gestures, the energy of a support group provides sustenance to an individual; one particular instance being in the discussion of the relationship between prayer and physical illness.11 Responses to such stimuli are either mitigated or exacerbated by genetic and/or environmental factors, the latter being the existence or nonexistence of a support group, something that helps to determine whether or not an individual will experience psychopathology as a result of the experience.1 This can be applied to both the interpsychic and intrapsychic perspectives.
A case in point regarding the expression of emotions on an interpsychic level is experiencing embarrassment. As Miller points out regarding the social model of embarrassment:
"… the active ingredient in embarrassment is concern for what others are thinking of us." And "Embarrassment is the acute state of flustered, awkward, abashed chagrin that follows events [stimulus/response] that increase the threat of unwanted evaluations from real or imagined audiences [emphasis as found in text]".14
Embarrassment is an emotion. The expression of an emotion is a thought, in this case the result of a stimulus that caused embarrassment. Thoughts are energy. Therefore, there is a fundamental connection between the interpsychic and intrapsychic communication aspects and the post-quantum mechanical, physiological, and psychological aspects of consciousness. Other aspects of the interpersonal communication perspective that serve to illustrate the connection discussed above are marital discord, the interaction of people within groups, and loneliness.
Marital discord makes sense from the perspective of electromagnetic radiation emanating from one human body and being received by another. Physical manifestions of marital discontent as discussed by Hetherington, Law, and O’Connor such as ‘defensiveness, avoidance, withdrawal, whining and, if prodded, anger and resentment’ are negative emotions experienced by the other partner in response to the stimulus of a mate’s provocations.15 On a physiological level, this kind of stimulus triggers the somatic nervous system via Cranial Nerve X and produces a fight or flight response.1 This bears a strong resemblance to Caughlin and Vangelisti’s concept of demand/withdraw and also indicates an incompatibility of partners’ electromagnetic fields.16 Where the electromagnetic fields of partners are incompatible, therefrom stems marital discord.
Another case in point is the interaction of people within groups. Parks discusses communication networks.17 The people who participate in the communication networks that he describes share common interests in one form or another. Given that individuals have an electromagnetic field, it is therefore logical to assume that groups of two or more people could produce a combined energy field. Therefore, it is possible to conclude that the communication networks Parks discusses produce their own combined energy fields when two or more members of the communication networks are either present or connected by some other means (i.e., telephone line or Internet connection).
There are also implications with regard to loneliness. As Segrin and Allspach note:
"Upon reaching adulthood, factors such as marital status, marital satisfaction, and size and density of social networks appear to be related to reports of loneliness."18
Extrapolating from the above comments that pertain to marital satisfaction and social networks, it therefore becomes possible to postulate that an individual’s loneliness stems, in a fundamental sense, from an individual’s internal discord. This, in turn, manifests itself as an electromagnetic energy field that is discordant with the energy fields with whom s/he may associate, thereby provoking repulsion in others instead of attraction.
Hence, there is a connection between superstring theory, Sarfatti’s post quantum physics, human anatomy and physiology, psychology and the communication discipline when when discussing the subject of interpersonal communication.
Conclusions
Abstruse as it may seem on a superficial level, there is indeed a connection between superstring theory, post-quantum mechanics, anatomy and physiology, psychology and the communication discipline with regard to interpersonal communication. The question is fundamental, based upon the understanding that our very consciousness is at least theoretically quantifiable in the sense that physics intends; that our very physical bodies may be aerials that can simultaneously transmit EM energy to and receive EM energy from our physical environment, including to and from other people; and that this energy does indeed influence us as both emotions and thoughts, the latter being particularly focused when discussing the issue of prayer. Ultimately, it ties in with the communication discipline when discussing interpersonal communication, precisely because of our energetic influences upon either our partners or upon the other members of groups of which we find ourselves a part at any given time.
This is an interdisciplinary topic that needs to be researched from an interdisciplinary perspective. However, instrumentation capable of measuring human EM fields in a dyadic or group situation needs to be developed first so as to assist in quantifying this highly speculative topic, the implication being that objective criteria for measuring this phenomenon in such circumstances need to be established prior to designing and utilizing such equipment in a laboratory setting.
Discussion
As a preliminary and highly tentative step in this direction, it may be possible to start from the angle of making comparisons between the energy fields of both men and women who are diagnosed by such a mental health professional as either a psychiatrist or clinical psychologist with an American Psychiatric Association Axis I diagnosis of a Major Depressive Episode (test group) and subsequently with experiment participants with no symptoms of depression (control group) as determined by the administration of the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) or similar instrument.19,20 Both groups would be administered the BDI as a means of determining whether or not there be a difference that can be correlated at 0.80 or greater between the two groups’ EM fields.
Once both types of experimental participants have passed the initial screening process, they could be connected to such a device as Benford has used to measure human body gamma radiation fluctuations during previous experiments.21,22 Based upon her research, it appears likely that the gamma radiation frequency is what needs to be measured for the purposes of such an experiment.
If the hypothesis specified in this article of the existence of human EM energy fields be correct, there should be some kind of measurable difference between the energy fields of people suffering from a Major Depressive Episode and those not suffering from such a psychopathology. The hypothesis of a measurable difference between a mentally healthy and mentally ill person’s EM energy should be borne out if a substantial difference is found between the readings of the two groups of participants. If not, the reasons would need to be examined in order to determine if there is a flaw in the experimental method not previously detected or if there are other mitigating factors to be considered that had not been previously considered. Ultimately, once properly refined, the experiment should then be replicated at least twice in order to ensure the method employed is sound before subsequent experiments investigating this theory should occur.

The Human Energy Field
in Relation to Science, Consciousness, and Health
By Gloria Alvino
1. INTRODUCTION
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 source of all life. The energy called prana. This universal energy is 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, which 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 Aura" 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 diseases, 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.
Gustave Naessens – Another more current development to consider is the work of the French microbiologist, Gustave Naessens, now continuing his research with his wife Francoise 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. Vitaliano is now in Boston, where she founded the Mindwaves’ Institute. Dr. Vitaliano’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. Vitaliano 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.

US scientists discover antibodies that neutralize 90 pct. of known HIV strains
By Agence France-Presse
Thursday, July 8th, 2010 — 10:53 pm
US researchers have discovered two powerful antibodies that neutralize more than 90 percent of all known strains of the HIV virus in the lab, new research released Thursday showed.
NIH-led scientists discovered the antibodies known as VRCO1 and VRCO2 that prevent most HIV strains from infecting human cells. The find is a potential breakthrough for advancing HIV vaccine design, and antibody therapy for other diseases.
The authors, whose work is published in the July 9 issue of Science, also were able to demonstrate how one of these disease-fighting proteins gets the job done.
"The discovery of these exceptionally broadly neutralizing antibodies to HIV and the structural analysis that explains how they work are exciting advances that will accelerate our efforts to find a preventive HIV vaccine for global use," said Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), National Institutes of Health.
"In addition, the technique the teams used to find the new antibodies represents a novel strategy that could be applied to vaccine design for many other infectious diseases," Fauci stressed in a statement.
Story continues below…
The team of virologists found that the two antibodies were produced naturally and found in the blood of HIV-positive people.
They were able to isolate these antibodies using a new molecular device they developed. It zeroes in on specific cells that make antibodies against HIV. The device is an HIV protein scientists modified to react only with antibodies specific to the site where the virus binds to cells it infects.
Leading two research teams were NIAID scientists Peter Kwong, Ph.D., John Mascola, MD, and Gary Nabel, MD, Ph.D.
"We have used our knowledge of the structure of a virus — in this case, the outer surface of HIV — to refine molecular tools that pinpoint the vulnerable spot on the virus and guide us to antibodies that attach to this spot, blocking the virus from infecting cells," explained Nabel.
Mascola added that: "the antibodies attach to a virtually unchanging part of the virus, and this explains why they can neutralize such an extraordinary range of HIV strains."
