Guest guest Posted March 27, 2009 Report Share Posted March 27, 2009 William, To the modern scientist on average it is not an accepted technique. To any experimentalist (note anyone can choose to be an experimentalist) that takes the time to do the drill and determine if it works when done properly in a reproducible fashion, can others independently be trained to do it, and can the theory be tested for negation under the appropriate boundary conditions the answer is yes. Now, since by the definitions of an experiment in science this is passing the requisite criteria it is sufficient for an experimentalist to say that the drill works/fails. As to voracity of the theory as to why it works it is just one step in the process. In fact, the first experiment is just one step in the process too and is actually hotly contended even now after 40 years. I was not advocating accepted science experiments that are published in journals as the only proof. Instead I was offering a more pragmatic approach in which when existing science isn’t available the person offering the theory presents an experiment that can be done in the real world to determine if their theory is valid/invalid within the limits their experiment allows for testing of the theory. There was a time (before Einstein became famous) when physics journals wouldn’t publish a theoretical paper unless it included proposed experiments to test the theory. Einstein actually had to overcome this to publish his general relativity paper. Then you can test it and evaluate the relative merits of the theory for yourself rather than just take their word for it because they said ‘blah blah blah’. Nor should just a set of references to how many people said it works according to theory ’x’ be sufficient without experimental evidence either… Example: Aristotle, then Ptolemy, and many dark and middle ages scholars taught that a heavier weight will fall faster than a lighter weight. Galileo just didn’t believe it without evidence so he tested it and found it to be false even though scholars had claimed it for centuries. Another example, Columbus didn’t believe the prevailing theory of a flat Earth…do I need to finish the story? No, I didn’t say these things are main stream science. I said that experimentalists like to have some testable experiment to prove or negate theories and that the problem with many books on the subject of consciousness was they don’t present experiments one can do or that have been done by researchers and just expect you to take their theory on ‘faith’. Now as there are many such experiments you asked for examples. I gave you two. Does this clear up your confusion? Have fun, Walter On Behalf Of William Leigh Thursday, March 26, 2009 5:21 PM To: Subject: Re: I'd get Dr. Tiller's three very complex books Walter Hurlbut,Doc and others, Just to clarify: Dr. Hurlburt mentioned two ways of validation. The first proved the non local aspects of ESP by demonstrating ability to " read " playing cards from outer space. I imagine that statistical methods were used to prove the astronaut had consistent above average ability with ESP. In the second method you mentioned the Zip Up technique that is verifiable with energy testing. Then you further demonstrated that the Zip Up technique and other techniques from Donna Eden also fall within the understanding of modern science for improving health. Does energy testing also fall within the understanding of modern science as a validation process?

If it were energy transmission rather than quantum data teleportation via entanglement the skill would have dropped with the square of the distance just like any radiating wave from a source whether we are talking electromagnetic or gravity. As the energy of such a source spreads out the surface area the energy is spread upon grows as the square of the distance. At some point the reception would drop and introduce errors. Consider how fast your radio sources drop off as you move away from them and then realize that they are typically radiating with 50,000 to 100,000 watts.

The more one is in an alpha-theta state of mind while doing this the better. It is interesting to note that one of the signs of this state of mind is red eyes due to increased relaxation of the arteries and veins resulting in increased blood flow. One can add the experiment of doing this same drill with extreme tension versus relaxing the arm and hand as much as possible and note the increased effectiveness in that as well. > > And why is increase blood flow important to me as a major component of the theory relating the shorter range energy fields of the body? Because blood is an electrolyte (mixture of free charges of both positive and negative types with different masses and charges) AKA plasma. So the behavior of a moving plasma at low temperatures is quite well known. And the magnetic and electric fields that are generated by the motion are calculable. The interaction of such is in line with the results of this drill. Moving in opposition to the central field with a sharply shaped field results in retardation of flow and thus decreased available energy and increased tension losses as well is an involuntary response in the body to constrict arteries and decrease blood flow.
