Electrical Fields

Harold Saxon Burr, Professor at Yale School of Medicine in 1929, initiated a study of the role of electricity in development and disease. Burr's work on energy fields from 1932 to 1956 was way out of step with the mainstream medicine and biology of the time. This was a period of explosive growth in pharmaceutical medicine and in the use of X-rays for diagnosis. Antibiotics were winning the war against disease and the thrust of medical research and public policy was towards a pill for every problem.

See James Oschman,Energy Medicine

While Burr discovered the theory of the influence of electricity on optimal performance, inventors like the Russian George Lakhovsky, the American Royal Rife or the Italian Antoine Priore and Gianni Dotto developed the corresponding technical devices. Lakhovsky (1869-1942) postulated the theory that a state of health or disease of a cell was dependant on whether the oscillations from healthy cells were maintained or were overtaken by the oscillations of the disease-causing cells. In the 1930ís, he developed an electro-therapeutic system called the Multi-Wave Oscillator (MWO). The MWO produced a broad-spectrum electromagnetic field specifically aimed at restoring cellular function to its normal state. (see George Lakhovsky, The Secret of Life)

Harold Saxon Burr, the Yale physiologist who was one of the first great pioneers in the scientific (or third-person) study of energy fields, often used diagrams of ever expanding energy fields around the body, much like an aura, which represent experimentally detected energy fields.

Such diagrams include a " P-field," or any gross physical energies associated with this body; as well as an " L-field" (or "life-field") and a " T-field" (or "thought-field"). Note that none of these energy fields are merely local, or confined simply to a physical and localized space. The local aspects of these energy fields are simply the areas of highest density of the fields (or, alternatively, the areas of greatest probability of finding the signature energy). But many of these local aspects can indeed be physically detected with various instruments (e.g., Burr, Motoyama, Tiller). Also, well-known and highly respected psychics (e.g., Michal Levin) often perceive these energy shells in essentially the way Burr depicted them—fields within fields within fields.

The visionary scientist, Harold Saxon Burr, commented in the 1930s on the electromagnetic determinants of life. He recognized the need to introduce a coordinating factor for the rapidly changing biochemical reactions constituting metabolism. Burr's research laid a solid experimental foundation behind the idea that every living system possesses an electric field that can be measured accurately. Life was an electro-dynamic event. This field has the properties, he said, to "control the movement and position of all charged particles within the living system...needed for control of growth and development". Burr and his colleagues left an enormous legacy in their papers and publications. His contributions to the developing science of bioeletronics was extremely important

Assumptions

5 False Assumptions About Natural Living
by Frederic Patenaude

It seems like every time you turn your head, you hear confusing and misleading information from every corner of the natural health movement. First, you have mainstream “experts” who rely on outdated and inaccurate data to advise us on the subject. And then there's the raw food or natural health movement itself, within which most people seem to disagree on what constitutes the healthiest diet.

In this article, I will review 5 wrong assumptions about natural living, spread by conventional “experts.” In the second part of this article, I will expose 5 false assumptions being spread by various raw-food advocates and naturopaths.

From the mainstream, we hear the following...

You have to make sure you eat enough protein

Without a doubt, the issue of “getting enough protein” is the number one concern of anyone switching to any kind of diet for any reason. Even though decades of vegetarian and vegan traditions and extensive research have proven that our actual protein requirements are fairly low and easy to meet - as long as we eat enough food - most people who will advise you about diet will likely make a much bigger deal about protein than it actually is.

Bodybuilders go beyond all extremes known to humankind by consuming upwards to 350 grams of protein per day, an amount that is completely off the charts and only possible through the consumption of refined protein powders.

At the same time, most people on the planet get by on less than 60 grams of protein a day, and many people in these cultures possess wiry and explosive strength that would put most gym goers to shame.

In the end, the evidence is still conclusive: as long as you eat enough calories to meet your needs, you will at the same time consume enough protein, even if all you eat are fruits and vegetables.

There is no reason to make protein more important than it actually is.

You need to eat a balanced diet

According to our nutritionists, a “balanced” meal is composed of carbohydrates, protein and fat in the right proportions.

A meal of bread (carbohydrate), with cheese (protein), and a salad containing a dressing of olive oil (fat) and a desert (carbohydrate) would be, in their opinion, a balanced meal.

That meal might be a digestive disaster for most people, but that aside, we don't find any evidence that our bodies need to receive nutrition in such a manner.

If we look all around the world, we see different cultures that have enjoyed excellent health eating far from “balanced” meals. In China, rice with vegetables is a meal. In the Great North, the Eskimos have lived on almost nothing but meat. The Hunzas regularly ate meals composed of vegetables and some chapati bread.

If we look at wild animals, we also see that they do not eat “balanced” meals. A meal for an orangutan might consist of nothing more than rambutan (a tropical fruit) or durian (another tropical fruit).

There is absolutely no need to worry about eating a very simple diet where most of our meals are composed of a few foods only. As long as we eat a large variety of food from week to week, it doesn't matter if our meals are not composed of “carbohydrates, protein and fat”.

You can't sustain yourself on just raw foods

Most nutritionists look at the raw food diet and claim that it's “impossible” to sustain ourselves from only fruits, vegetables, nuts and seeds. Letting alone the fact that hundreds of thousands of people are doing just that and are still alive to tell about it, there is no scientific reason to believe that we can't live on raw foods.

Nutritionists will claim that it would be “very difficult” to eat enough fruits and vegetables to consume enough calories.

The problem is that they are still stuck with the view of cooked nutrition and its “balanced view” and can't think outside the box and realize that it is actually possible to consume enough fruits and vegetables and get the calories you need. It just is a lot of food!

The truth is, eating a raw food diet will mean that you'll be consuming more fruits and vegetables in a day than some people may consume in a week or even in a month. But as you learn to eat this way, you'll find that this “huge” amount of fruits and vegetables is actually the “right” amount.

You should never expose your skin to the sun.

Although we know that too much sun isn't good for us, the advice we get from dermatologists these days defy all reason. Apparently, we should never expose our skin to the sun unless we are fully protected by chemical lotions.

Did you forget the important fact that sunlight is essential to our well-being, and that regular sun exposure at safe periods of the day are actually beneficial to your health, even in 2006?

You need the sun. The question is just how much!

If it's natural it's good for you.

The word “natural” has been abused more than any other term in the food industry. We now have “natural potato chips”, “natural coffee” and “natural beer.”

The fact that these foods come from a factory should make it obvious that they are definitely not natural, nor healthy.

The truth is, even if a food were natural, it wouldn't automatically make it healthy. There are plenty of plants and mushrooms that grow in the wild that are not only “perfectly natural,” but also deadly!

Let's be clear: for a food to be healthy, it has to be a lot more than “natural.”

Flaky?

There is a language connection between mind, body, and emotions. Recent research has shown that much illness is self-created largely through this language. Words are often the trigger (catalyst) that lead to the symtoms of disease. You are what you believe about you. A "seedthought" is a significant catalyst for a physical or emotional response. For years I was involved in presenting new ideas such as women's liberation, holistic health and spiritual healing. At one point I was plalgued by a persistent case of dandruff. Months of aggressive treatment failed to eliminate the ugly white flakes. I wondered if there was a language connection. I soon had the anser. Frequently while presenting new ideas I would think "They think I'm flaky," a perfect catalyst for the dandruff. I began to tell myself the real truth "I am not flaky. I am serious, thoughtfyul, fun, loving and committed!" Within two weeks of my initial recognition of the flaky seedthought, and without further treatment, the dlandruff disappeared. When I knew I wasn't flaky, I stopped flaking.

Healing Energy and Water

Many of us today appreciate we are composed of energy to some degree. We measure the electrical activity of the brain with an Electroencephalogram (EEG), the heart with an Electrocardiogram (ECG). We can stimulate a muscle to contract and relax by reproducing the electrical potential it needs to carry out this task. But it is only when we look deep into the physical body that we can begin to comprehend the immense energy that we all are and the potential we all have.

If we cut open the human body and pull the skin and fatty tissue aside, we see that the body is jam-packed with body parts. However, if we magnify through these organs, tissues, compounds and molecules we come to:

ATOMS – the building blocks of life. We are, as are all living things, made up of atoms and an atom is composed of 99.999% SPACE or ENERGY/LIGHT.
This means that we humans are composed of 99.999% energy or light too! Only it doesn’t appear that way because we have been conditioned over the years to become intellectual rather than spiritual and so now, we only perceive reality through our limited five physical senses. This in effect allows us to see only the illusory reality, the 0.001% of who and what we are and so today we focus our attention on the 0.001% – the physical part - which is of course totally disproportionate to what we are composed of.

If we begin to move out of, or expand from the atom – the energy that we are – and towards the biochemical aspect of ourselves, we discover that even our DNA is composed of light (energy) and it emits photons or information/instructions in the form of light-particles to our cells on how they should behave, replicate and so on.1 The wavelength at which DNA emits these photons corresponds exactly to the narrow band of visible light: ‘Its spectral distribution ranges at least from infrared to ultraviolet.’2 The light/energy in our DNA is a highly coherent source of light2, which means it is balanced. The light of our DNA is fed from the 99.999% light that all living things and we are composed of. This is why we find DNA in all living organisms. This expansion of energy from within the atom continues through our DNA, through our cells and out of the physical body to form what is commonly referred to as the Auric or Biophysical Energy Field.

Everything in the physical universe is composed of light or energy and today we can photograph these energy fields around our cells, plants and the human body. Today, more people are able to see these energy fields or sense or feel them – hence we have many energy or healing modalities. Young children in particular can see these energies and this is evidenced in their drawings of humans which generally have the eyes, nose etc., in the right place but the hair is almost always standing on end and depicted in bright colours. Many young children also have what we conditioned adults believe to be purely imaginary friends, when with hindsight, they may actually be seeing part of the greater reality of what is - the 99.999% of what we are.

We know from many scientific experiments and our own personal experiences with plants that they respond positively to the emotion of love and negatively to the emotion of fear and there have been numerous experiments which confirm that all living things are able to communicate with each other and share information. Just how do all living things interact and communicate with each other? We need to examine the properties of water to discover the answer to this enigma.

WATER

The majority of people consider water to be no more than a liquid for quenching the thirst, bathing in and for putting out fires. In reality water is one of THE most important substances in the physical reality and has some very profound properties indeed. The other is light energy as we have just discussed.
A water molecule has a north and a south pole and is separated by a dipole length. Similar if you like to a magnet. Therefore, water has memory and the ability to store information in the same way as a magnetic cassette tape or videotape records information.3 The science of biophysics has shown that even when they dilute a solution to D200, which is 1:10200 they can not only measure the electromagnetic frequency of the original substance introduced at this dilution, but they can also photograph the energy field of this substance too.4

This, to me, is unequivocal proof that water stores information on an energy level. This is exactly how homeopathy works. Water can also store information for long periods of time and share this information with humans and other living organisms.

When we examine some of our most distant history we find records of our ancestors referring to water as the ‘emotion of the Earth’ and ‘the consciousness of the Earth’, and this is very true. What is the Earth and a human primarily composed of? We are both composed of 70 - 80% WATER. Water in this physical reality is Consciousness; it is a memory bank of stored information and our physical means of identity. As emotions are a powerful energy, water stores emotions very easily, which is why we humans are emotional beings.

So how do these two important elements of life – ENERGY/LIGHT and WATER - work together in this physical reality?

If we look at our cellular environment we find that DNA lies in the centre of every living cell coiled like a snake or a serpent and surrounded by water or intracellular fluid. As we know, our DNA is composed of light and emits photons – particles of light that contain information or instructions – and this information is transmitted through the watery environment of the cell on how it should perform and replicate. This inner energy (light) is expanded outwards through our watery environment and extends outside of the physical body forming the Auric or Biophysical Field, courtesy of the water molecules in the air around us. In addition, part of this inner light is utilised in our biochemical environment to provide a different form of energy: Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP) which governs our biological processes. ATP is a nucleotide molecule found in all cells. It is used to drive the thousands of biological processes needed to sustain life, growth, movement and reproduction. ATP is the Universal energy-carrying molecule and is indispensable to the life of a cell.

All our cells are surrounded by extra or intercellular fluid too, and water is the medium through which all our cells remain in constant communication with each other on an energy level. This is how, for example, the Autonomic Nervous System and its two branches work meticulously to maintain equilibrium in the body and how the immune system monitors the body for invaders or imbalances and how it knows where to send it troops when the body is under threat; all without us having any conscious awareness of, or input into, what is going on.

We can see here that the mind or the intellect has no idea or comprehension of what is actually going on in the body to maintain equilibrium and health. Yet the mind still insists that it knows all the answers and we tend to live our lives by the thoughts and directions of the minds influences and beliefs.
The science of biophysics has been able to determine that when a cell association dies, it dies as a complete entity and not cell by cell, which shows that some form of cellular communication is indeed going on.5

We can see here the importance of light – the 99.999% of what we are – and the importance of water in this physical reality. Both are required for life to exist. In effect what we have is the following equation;

NON-MATTER DNA CODE + LIGHT WATER = MATTER/PHYSICAL LIFE

(99.999% Light/Energy)

We can clearly see that creation works from in, to out, from the light within into the water without, or from the centre – from the light within the atom - continually expanding outwards like a droplet in a pond. In effect the physical reality is the ripple that reaches the edge of the pond, it is the end result of creation. The physical reality is merely a reflection of the inner reality and our DNA is the axis point of the reflection of the light within into the water without. This is how we animate (energise) and feed the physical body.

Water is the medium by which all life stores and shares information and through which all things interact. When we can truly appreciate the immense properties of water we can begin to understand many of the so-called anomalies of life today. Such as how ESP works or how psychics can walk into a room or building and ‘sense’ or ‘pick up’ events that happened many years ago, simply because the information and the emotion of the event is stored in the water molecules in the air, the floor, the ceiling, the walls, the furniture and so on. The properties of water explain past life experiences because the Earth’s consciousness holds the memory of what has transpired before, it is one huge memory bank of information and emotional energies of the past and present. As emotion is a very powerful energy then emotional energies are more readily stored and retained in the Earth’s consciousness and as we know, past life experiences are generally very emotional indeed.
T
he properties of water also explain how Healing and Distant Healing works. Remote Viewing, Remote Sensing and Remote Influencing - popular methods used by the military and intelligence agencies – also work through the medium of water. The properties of water explain how we can meet somebody for the first time and have an instant like or dislike for the person before anything is said, simply because we are communicating with them through the ability of the water molecules (consciousness) to share information, and we do this sub-consciously. We can also understand how telepathy works and so much more.

We can understand how man-made unnatural energies such as EMF’s or microwaves – even other peoples negative energies - can share their unbalanced information with us and the potential these energies have to change or damage the information or memory stored within our cellular environment, simply because our body, through our watery environment can take on board and store this unbalanced energy in its memory banks. This is exactly how a diseased cell replicates itself. The replacement cell is reproduced in the likeness and from the memory of its diseased host cell. This is how, for example, a tumour replicates itself and can continue to grow. (See Shopping
For Spirit articles on www.equilibrauk.com for more information).

In effect, when water stores energies or incoherent light from man-made toxic chemicals, additives, pesticides, EMF’s, mobile phones and their towers, for example, these unbalanced energies then begin to distort or scramble the coherent light emitted from our DNA and the information carried by this coherent light and the corresponding instructions to our cells on how to replicate and behave, is altered. This process alters our energy fields in a detrimental way and this corresponding imbalance is then reflected in the physical as our cells begin to replicate in accordance with the ‘instructions’ carried by the distorted or scrambled light/energy. This is the onset of what we call physical illness and disease.

We can see that we need coherent light in water for health and balance in this physical reality, for it is this light that purifies the water – our consciousness and energy fields – and enables us to maintain equilibrium and therefore physical health. Also, the light in water determines the strength and vitality of our energy fields and its ability to deal with negative energies. We can also see that this light – this purifying energy - comes from within us and not from outside of us.

However, we do interact with beneficial energy/frequencies from the Earth and Nature, though sadly today these beneficial energies have become compromised by what we humans have created over time. Nature and all living things work in this simple way, humans included. We all strive to maintain equilibrium through a process known as implosion and explosion. This is how our chakras work. Our chakras are vortices of energy which spin both ways and implode and explode at the same time. In effect, they implode negative energies back into the light within where they are purified and then they explode the purified and balanced energies back out into the physical reality. This is how we keep our consciousness and energy fields balanced and how we contribute to balancing the Earth’s consciousness. We work in exactly the same way as Nature works.

The science of biophysics discovered that the physical body is not designed to become ill. Only when the defence mechanism of the body – its consciousness or energy fields (Aura) – becomes weakened do we actually become ill.6 Therefore, something somewhere must be interfering with our natural process of implosion and explosion. Toxic chemicals in the air, our farmland, our water and our food contribute to this interference, as do certain medicines and vaccinations. Chemicals used to treat our water remain in the water in an energy form and can share this imbalance with our bodies. However, the biggest interference in this natural process comes from the MIND or more correctly the EGO and through the emotion of fear.
There are only two emotions – unconditional love, which is balanced – and fear, which is unbalanced. Collectively, what has been the overall emotion of human beings over the last few thousand years or so? Would FEAR be a fair answer? I feel it would. Humans, in the main have lived and continue to live in fear. We are becoming more aware today of how our emotions can affect our health and how unbalanced emotions can cause blockages on an energy level, which consequently can cause physical disharmony, or illness and disease. Can we imagine what the cumulative effect the unbalanced emotions of our collective consciousness – some six billion people today – can have upon the Earth’s energy fields and overall health? As water stores emotions very well, can we appreciate what has happened to the Earth’s consciousness - its energy fields - over the last few thousand years and what is happening to them today?
E
very thought, belief, fear and emotion – all being energy - is stored in the Earth’s energy fields which surround and interact with all living things. So, over time, we humans have created an imbalance within the consciousness of the Earth through our fear-based emotions and actions and we are merely intensifying the imbalance today. We have literally created a disease outside of us and this disease is being fed back into our own energy fields affecting our own consciousness and consequently our own physical health. We take in this unbalanced emotional energy with every breath we take, with every drink we consume and with every meal that we eat – all being replete with water molecules – consciousness/memory. We are also interacting with these external energies through our own energy fields every minute of every day. There are other ways too where we innocently ause imbalances within our energy fields to an even greater extent. One way is through our mind, which can be influenced by the ego and beliefs of other people.
