Spirituality and brain in the new medicine

Transmutation and its perspectives for frontier sciences
Stephan Krall
That elements are stable is one of the dogmas of materialism. That was not always so. In the long history of chemistry alchemy was a holistic and open approach combining spirituality and materialism for nearly 2000 years. Making gold out of lead was on the one hand only a metaphor for becoming enlightened for the one who carried out the experiment but on the other hand the real attempt to transmute elements. Modern science ended the dream of alchemists and split the world in materialism on the one hand and religion on the other. But researchers doubted at least the stability of elements and formulated the hypothesis that elements may transform from one into another without being related to radioace disintegration. This research was neglected although several scientists carried out hundreds of experiments over decades; the most famous was the late Prof. Louis Kervran from France who died only in 1982 in Paris. From another perspective the discussion came up again with the cold fusion, which is commonly called, an “affair” and the leading scientists are branded as quacks.
But looking into modern quantum physics, which seems not to have arrived at common thinking, elements seem not to be as we all learned in school. There are no small balls flying around like the famous Atomium monument in Brussels tells us. Atoms are something in between energy and stuff. Moreover electrons and other particles cannot be observed but are usually in a probability space (Wahrscheinlichkeitsraum). Modern physics – and I mean real advanced cutting edge science with an open mind – opens up again options of seeing the world from a new angle which could make the bridge to the holistic approach that alchemy has been until two centuries ago – and survived in some spots all over the world.

New research results on homeopathy
Eckehard Eibl
Homeopathy describes in a very complete way the organisation of living systems. There are lots of rules and laws that have to be regarded in order to treat people in the right way. Thus homeopathy can be very helpful to understand life and its ways of expression. Beside some of the general homeopathic outlines there will be a short overview of current research on homeopathy and its associated problems.
Awareness of the transpersonal - a psychology theory of interactive fields
Ulrich Kramer
Twenty years of practice as a counselling psychologist have shown that a standard set of transpersonal phenomena will appear in all clients in the course of their personal development. They are brought about by a person actively producing thoughts and mental energy fields. The phenomena are:
On viewing the recall images of these incidents or on recognizing the nature and contents of the telepathic interactions taking place, considerable emotional and somatic discharges as well as cognitive, solution-oriented re-integration will occur. The unwanted condition (the reason for the consultation) can then be optimized by measures taken by the client.
The method is based on principles of psychoanalysis, behaviour therapy, Rogerian therapy, Taoism and Buddhism. Under the name of “MindWalking” it is trademarked in Germany, Austria, Switzerland and Australia, is taught in seminars and practised professionally by a growing number of trainers. Sessions are done within a compact time span of e. g. 12 to 18 hours inside two or three days. They are ended when the client (“session partner”) through insight alone has broken through to a recognition of personal truth which will fundamentally change his view on life and make it more liveable. The counsellor is not a therapist but works as a “session guide”, helping his session partner through the confrontation with the rough parts of the images recalled. The session guide does not interpret the statements of his client in any way, neither symbolically nor with reference to a diagnostic or religious system. All session work is done in normal awareness mode; holotropic breathing, hypnosis or drugs are not used. This paper will present the method, its interactive field theory and its results by means of some case examples. The “mindwalker”, an electronic measuring device used in sessions for monitoring mental discharges, will be demonstrated. As an outlook to the future a comprehensive TOE (Theory of Everything) involving physics, psychology, religion, biology and medicine, will be tentatively sketched.
Science, consciousness and healing in the 21st century – state of the art and perspectives

Science points towards spirituality
Max Payne
We must start from science. The self-awareness of science compels us to ask what is the nature of the dynamic creative consciousness which drives the process of scientific inquiry which in turn produces scientific knowledge. Science cannot explain itself. Mind cannot be reduced to matter. Indeterminacy and non-locality make any reduction systematically impossible. 94% of the universe is "dark" matter or "dark" energy. In a real sense we do not know what matter is: we only grasp at its deepest nature through mathematics, which is a sub-set of mind. Neither do we know what mind is. Animals have consciousness as well as mankind, and the evidence of parapsychology can only be denied by the dogmatically sceptical. Self-awareness of mind must reveal an inbuilt arrow towards fuller consciousness. This is the direction of enlightenment, and thus science points towards spirituality.
This is the point at which all the religions of the world weigh in with their mutually conflicting visions of dogmatic certainty. No one who has followed the preceding argument and agreed with it can accept these certainties of faith. The new paradigm for the 21st century must be a humble spiritual agnosticism.
Peace-in-Mind as a Healer
Ove Svidén
Haste, irritation for details, worry for economy and anxiety are inroads to stress, illness and ultimately - cancer. On the other hand a Peace-in-Mind, as a holistic systems approach and active philosophizing, can create a personal well-being, and a life filled with meaning. The ultimate peace in mind is a spiritual quest beyond time limits. That is why the Supreme Creator has put her I AM as the Eternal Healer in our hearts. Glimpses from my work with the World Peace Foundation idea, and the Sound of Peace film scenario, illustrate my presentation.
Ormus: a new state of matter with promise for use in medicine
Roger Taylor
Certain heavy metals exist with an unusual, and hitherto unrecognized electronic arrangement which renders them
They are widely distributed in soils, waters and living organisms. Following some remarkable recoveries by volunteer recipients, samples have been given to many individual doctors, who have reported extraordinary effects on a wide variety of conditions, including cancer, AIDS and multiple sclerosis. My own experience includes an objective read-out using a computerised Kirlian system.
Making basic Jungian psychology accessible to the young mind through art and Power Point dynamics
Benvenuto Andrean
In teaching Jungian ideas to the ‘clip-conditioned’ young, art can function as powerful visual material in bridging the gap between abstraction and concretization. In addition, the dynamic possibilities offered by Power Point add a new didactic dimension in the diagrammatic portrayal of psychic developmental processes. This became evident in a three day course given by me in Holma College in Höör, Sweden, for a young audience. Through select material from these presentations I would like to introduce you to the possibilities they offer. Most importantly, with this I like to make a concrete start in thinking about how to go about reaching the young. Of course, older people are free to join in.
Some extraordinary cases of children who claim memories of a past life
Erlendur Haraldsson
Children are sometimes found, particularly in Asia, who claim to remember episodes of a previous life. Analysis of the contents of these cases reveals interesting features, such as frequent accounts of violent death, A few extraordinary cases that I have investigated in Lebanon, Sri Lanka and Iceland will be presented, and along with efforts to verify/falsify the alleged memories. Some explanations for interpreting the cases will also be presented.
Genetic Aspects of Human Consciousness - Sensibility to Cosmic Factors
Alexander Trofimov
Among the genes involved in the development of human neural chemical reactions, consciousness, behaviour and psychical diseases the D4 gene of the dopamine receptor attracts the particular attention of researchers [S.Nanko et al., A.Debriym et al., 1994]. We discovered that the carriers of short and long alleles of the D4 gene respond differently to geomagnetic deprivation (in the chamber with very low level of magnetic field of the Earth0. Using the method of co-variance analysis, the influence of the level of helio-transparency of the magnetic sphere calculated for the helio-transparency coefficient [A.Trofimov, 2002] on the genetically determined dynamics of many human psychophysiological parameters was demonstrated in the conditions of GMF model pre-formation: its induction decreasing and changing in accordance with the angle of the geomagnetic deviation.
When testing a human with the non-visualized hologram (patent of RF ? 2239860 from May, 5, 2003, the authors A.Trofimov et al) “Encyclopaedia` and World Art`s Gallery” significant correlations were noted between EEG-parameters, GDV luminescent square (by computer`s Kirlian method) and the length of the D4 gene alleles “expressed” by the solar radio radiation and the cosmic rays (proton and neutron components) during the different moon-months of embryogenesis.
Some aspects of the report by the UK’s health select committee on the influence of the pharmaceutical industry
Doris M Jones MSc
The UK’s Health Select Committee, which advises the UK government on health-related issues, in 2004/2005 held one of its most important and far-reaching inquiries into ‘The Influence of the Pharmaceutical Industry’.
In the broadest possible sense this inquiry encompassed every concept of the theme of this year’s SMN Annual Gathering in respect of human health. The Pharmaceutical Industry is one of the most powerful industries in the Western World, with a huge range of drugs for almost every illness and hence it has a tremendous influence on the lives of millions of people. The influence of the Pharmaceutical Industry nowadays affects literally every aspect of medicine.
For almost a century patients have taken prescribed drugs on medical advice and on trust, believing them to be based on sound and reliable science and playing a vital part in healing processes. Now huge question marks hang over many if not all these assumptions: The reliability of scientific trials of new drugs, release of relevant data and marketing techniques have all been found wanting; the consciousness inevitably involved in these issues has proved to be of a dubious nature at best; the healing potential of a large proportion of such drugs is now acknowledge as having been over-estimated and in some cases the potential risks associated with their use outweighs their benefits.
I will try to report some facts and findings, which this far-reaching report has revealed, as well as indicate briefly my own interests in these issues - in English and German.
Deep Field Relaxation (DFR): A Practical Application of Consciousness in Troubled Times
Clif Sanderson
The very definition of ‘field’ and the application of different states of consciousness have been described in numerous, Taoist, Buddhist and Hindu scriptures. The most well-known example of such writings is the Bhagavad Gita. The method known as Deep Field Relaxation (DFR) is based on ancient philosophies and mysticism of the Orient and on the latest discoveries of modern science. The main pillars of DFR are:
Research has shown that DFR can be used in numerous areas of human activity whether we are talking about health, science or restoring the inner and external human environment. It is about training the mind to reach the so-called zero-point zone where the Information Field of Creativity reveals itself without conscious effort or mental work.
Returning home to wholeness
Paul Hague
Evolution begins and ends with Wholeness, for the fundamental design principle of the Universe, felt as Consciousness, is the statement: Wholeness is the union of all opposites. To show how evolution is healing our fragmented, egoic minds, this talk will similarly begin and end with Wholeness. For none of us is separate from God, Nature, or each other for a single instant of our lives. Based on this intuitive realization, we can use the modelling methods of information systems architects in business to unify science and mysticism, enabling us to cooperate lovingly with each other to heal our sick society.
