There are literally countless studies within the realms of parapsychology and quantum physics that make it quite
clear that human thought, intention, and overall human consciousness has some sort of relationship with our
physical material world. That is not what?s in question, what?s in question is the nature of that relationship and how
strong this effect is. There is still so much to discover.
Beyond peer-reviewed published studies, there are also some very reputable sources showing that mind
influencing matter goes well beyond the quantum scale, but we?ll get to that a little later.
Now, a fairly recent study published in SAG Journals entitled Transcriptional Changes In Cancer Cells Induced By
Exposure To A Healing Method has examined the effect that healing intention can have on cancer cells in vitro. The
goal of the study was to assess if stored or recorded energy has an impact on breast cancer cells by using
energy-charged cotton and electromagnetic recording of healers practicing
the method.
When it comes t o heal ing, t he st udy point s out :
Virtually all recorded societies report that certain individuals appear to have the
ability to heal. Often times this healing has been associated with spiritual
disciples of one sort or another, and the healers themselves have sometimes been
accorded a special status within the culture. Healers have utilized various
methods of practice, including laying on of hands, prayer and induced altered
states of consciousness, to name a few. Hippocrates, referred to this healing as
?the force which flows from many people?s hands.
This type of healing has been practiced in various cultures throughout human history, especially in Buddhism.
Ancient texts in this area are full of stories of people with exceptional abilities, but what?s even more exciting is
that we actually have real-world examples today that can?t really be debunked.
For example, when talking about modern-day research, one of the pioneers in this area was a biologist by the name
of Bernard Grad of McGill University. In controlled experiments, he discovered that certain people could actually
influence the germination of plant seeds, make plants grow at a faster rate, and influence the curing of seeds that
had been shocked by saline solution. Furthermore, he was able to measure the ability of healers to reduce goiter
and stimulate wound healing in mice.
What?s interesting about that particular study is that it wasn?t the only one. A
study published in the American Journal of Chinese Medicine, as seen in the US
National Library of Medicine, demonstrated that a woman with special abilities
was able to accelerate the germination of seeds for the purposes of developing a
more robust seed stock. Her name was Chulin Sun, and she entered into a deep
trance-like state, which sprouted dry seeds in 20 minutes, compared to the normal
3 to 4 days.
The Science Is There
The cancer study mentioned above goes on to provide more examples:
Since Grad?s initial work, there have been innumerable preclinical studies of healing, sometimes categorized by the
target of the intended healing. Benor, for example, discusses healing action on enzymes, cells in the laboratory,
fungi/yeasts, bacteria, plants, single-cell organisms, and animals that have been subjected to controlled study. The
proliferation of healing studies has continued to rise in recent years. At present, there are several peer-reviewed
journals devoted exclusively to the burgeoning field of complementary and alternative medicine (CAM), publishing
both preclinical and controlled clinical studies of healing of a wide variety of conditions. In addition, there is an
increasing number of peer-reviewed journals which are not focused exclusively on CAM but that are open to publishing
controlled studies in these areas.
