 Articles ~ Hypothesis and Science articles ~ Superluminal Theory

In 1964, J.S.Bell published Bell's Theorem, which mathematically supports the concept that subatomic particles are connected in some way that transcends time and space. Anything that happens to one particle affects all other particles. This effect is immediate or superluminal. Einstein said that nothing travels faster than the speed of light. However, Bell's superluminal theorem is supported by experimentation. With Bell, we are now going beyond Einstein and beyond the wave/particle theory. As we learn how this instantaneous connectedness works, we might learn to be consciously aware of our instantaneous connection to one another and to the universe.

Robert Sheldrake, in his theory of morphogenetic fields, proposes that all systems are regulated not only by known energy and material factors, but also by invisible organizing fields. Whenever one member of a species learns a new behavior, the causative field for that species is changed. If that new behavior is repeated long enough, its "morphic resonance" affects the entire species. Lyall Watson described this phenomenon in his description of the Hundredth Monkey Principle. Dr. David Bohm states that the same thing is true of quantum physics. One subatomic particle affects all subatomic particles

Jack Sarfatti says that the way superluminal connectedness exists is through a higher plane of reality. By reaching to a higher plane, we may be able to understand how instantaneous connectedness works. Safratti used these concepts to put forth his theory of multi-dimensional reality.

Experimental Proof
There are many experiments, especially in the last ten years in China, utilizing the special skills and powers of accomplished masters of various types of qigong (or qigung or chi gong, all pronounced chee gong ). 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 in order not only to improve health and longevity, but to enhance awareness, psychic powers, and spiritual development.

"Medical Applications of Qigong", by Kenneth M. Sancier, Ph.D., appears in the 1996 edition of Alternative Therapies. Also "The Effect of Qigong on Human Body Functions" from the Fifth International Symposium on Qigong, Shanghai, China;1994:179, by Sancier. Larry Dossey, M.D. also documents nonlocal events in "The Reach of The Mind, Healing Words: The Power of Prayer and the Practice of Medicine."

The practice of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is based on the premise that the Qi (ch'i, chi, or vital energy) of the body must be strong and in balance in order for the person to enjoy good health. During the last ten years in China, there are hundreds of scientific papers written on qigong in relation to its medical applications. There are an additional 837 abstracts published from international conferences on the subject. More than half that number are available in English, and thus accessible to Westerners.

Yan Xin, who is a physician of both Western and Traditional Chinese Medicine, teaches his combination of the ancient form of qigong -- with some changes -- to fill the needs of modern civilization. This discipline is called Yan Xin Qigong (YXQ). It is estimated that over 60,000 people in China practice qigong daily to maintain their health and achieve longevity. A growing number throughout the world joins in this practice.

Dr. Yan Xin has conducted many scientific experiments in China. Emitting external Qi, Dr. Yan Xin has caused measurable changes in the properties of several types of living and non-living materials. During the last ten years, he has conducted experiments in three major categories based on experimental methodology:

1. The investigation of the nature of externally emitted Qi by the use of detectors and sensors of analytical instruments.
2. The monitoring and measurement of changes in physiological parameters and tissues of humans and other living organisms during the emission of external Qi.
3. The monitoring and measurement of changes in physiological parameters and tissues of humans and other living organisms during the circulation of internal Qi.
4. The study of the effect on cancer cells and various types of bacteria in vitro with the application of external Qi.

Since experiments using humans are difficult to assess because of the possibility of personal psychological interference, experiments were performed using tap water, normal saline solution (0.9%), glucose solution 50%, and medemycine solution 1.5 mg/ml. In these experiments, external Qi was directed at the chosen samples at ultra-long distances (over 1,000 kilometers). Results showed changes in the laser Ramen spectra of the tap water, the saline solution, the glucose solution, and the medemycine solution.

As published in "Laser Ramen Observation on Tap Water, Saline, Glucose and Medemycine Solutions Under the Influence of the External Qi of Qigong", a paper published in the Ziran Zazhi (Nature Journal) in Chinese, Vol.11, pp.567-571, 1988, the external Qi of Yan Xin Qigong (YXQ) had exerted influence over the structures of these solutions. From December, 1990, to June, 1991, new experiments were performed investigating the effects of external Qi and its effects on:

1. the radioactive decay rate of a radioactive element
2. the ultraviolet absorption of de-ionized water.

The results demonstrated that the external Qi emitted by Dr. Yan Xin (from the United States) could cause an astonishing change in the radioactive decay rate of the radioactive source 241 Am, and it significantly affected de-ionized water and changed its ultraviolet absorption spectrum.

The most extraordinary feature of this experiment was that the external Qi was transmitted from the qigong master in the United States to the laboratory in Beijing -- a distance over 10,000 kilometers. These positive results were published in a paper, "The External Qi Experiments from the United States to Beijing (China)" by Yan Xin in Zhongguo Qigong (China Qigong) in Chinese, Vol.1, pp.4-6, 1993.

The study of traditional Chinese medicine centers on the concept of the vital force or Qi as being not only within the human body, but in all living things. This Qi flows through the meridians of the human body to exchange, via the acupuncture points, with the Qi in the environment. Thus, the Qi of humans (the human energy field or HEF), and all living things, the earth, and the unified field are constantly exchanging.

HEF Scientific Theory -- Conclusion
Our Newtonian world of solid concrete objects is surrounded and permeated by a fluid world of radiating energy. It is constantly moving and changing; an ocean of dancing, spinning, flashing particles of light, energy, and information. Our linear way of thinking, seeing, and expressing needs to expand to accommodate this new reality. It is time for a new paradigm, or model, of science, reality, and consciousness. It is time to bridge the gaps between science and alternate science, physics and metaphysics, and the external scientific experiment and the inner personal experience. This may well begin with the unification of the concepts of mind, energy, and consciousness. Using our minds to study energy, we may simultaneously define consciousness as one and the same.

Recently, in a lecture for the International Society for the Study of Subtle Energies and Energy Medicine, Dr. Larry Dossey recounted an old story:
"There was once an argument among the gods over where to hide the secret of life so that men and women would not find it. One god said: Bury it under a mountain; they will never look there. No, the others said, one day they will find ways to dig up mountains and will uncover it. Another said : Sink it in the depths of the ocean; it will be safe there. No the others objected, humans will one day find a way to plumb the ocean's depths and find it easily. Finally another god said: Put it inside them; men and women will never think of looking for it there. All the gods agreed, and so that is how the secret of life came to be hidden within us."

Wholistic, or holistic, awareness remains beyond linear time and three dimensional space, and therefore is not easily recognized. We must practice this wholistic experience in order to recognize it. Our language, and our old ideas or paradigms, still limit our growth. Meditation and many other practices, like YXQ, are ways of transcending the limitations of the linear mind in order to experience the multidimensionality of interconnectedness, and to experience our oneness with the universal energy, the unified field, or consciousness.
