In recognition of his important work in the field, he was awarded the McDougall Research Fund Award from Duke University in 1962, selected as one of the world’s leading parapsychologists by UNESCO in 1974, recognized as an “ordinary academician” by the Instituto di Cultura Universitaria e di Studi Superiori, Academia Tiberina in 1977 and awarded Dr. J. B. Rhine Biennial Research Award in 1996. He has also been honored by several renowned scientific and religious organizations. He serves as an advisor/lecturer to various international associations and institutes, and as a member of the editorial board of international journals in related fields.
In 1980, he established the Motoyoma-Bentov Fund Research Fellowship [with Itzhak Bentov] to assist promising scientists who wish to study human existence in its holistic sense. Dr. Marshall F. Gilula was the first Motoyama-Bentov Fellow. In 1991, he established the Southern California Institute Japan Branch (Graduate School) in Tokyo. In 1992, he established California Institute for Human Science in the hope of 1) elucidating the mechanism of the correlation between mind and body; 2) understanding the human mind (unconscious, conscious, superconscious); 3) synthesizing Eastern and Western religions; and 4) synthesizing Eastern and Western medicine (energy medicine and health science). He invites reputable researchers and scholars as professors of the school in order to educate promising researchers. Dr. Motoyama established CIHS in the belief that this project is important for the realization of a global society – one which will require individuals with mental and spiritual development.

NONLOCAL HEALING http://heartstringsbook.50megs.com
New physics strongly suggests that we are all holistically connected in a shared domain finer than the physical level, which we can call subspace, zero-point field, vacuum fluctuation, quantum foam, or scalar field. The biological basis for this field can be found in communication on a cellular basis. The doorway to the quantum level exists in the extracellular fluid between each and every cell in the human body. Studies of the cell membrane and intercellular communication have led us to an understanding that ultimate communication may be carried by packets of light energy, or photons. By applying healing intentionality, it appears we can influence the mindbody and energy fields of other individuals, animals, plants, and even an entire planet. The words and concepts are all slightly different from what has come before but the functionality is not. Nonlocal or quantum healing side-steps the illusion of separateness which our 3-dimensional perceptual system teaches us to believe.
There is already a group of medical doctors who have dared speak from their hearts about the inner experience of quantum healing and nonlocal effects of focused intention. Physician Larry Dossey coined the term Nonlocal Healing; Deepak Chopra used Quantum Healing, and Andrew Weil and Norman Shealy have described an alternate term, Spontaneous Healing. No matter what the name, it is hardly new. The process draws on 50,000 years of shamanic tradition mobilizing natural mindbody healing. Nonlocal (quantum) healing simply focuses on the human energy field. The method we have studied also employs a cybernetic form of computerized consciousness as part of a healing triad.
We all share an interest in healing and healing relationships. Healing doesn't only come from outside; we all have internal self-healing potentials. Healing can be mobilized by the seemingly irrational, such as healing rituals or beliefs. The relationship of mindbody and the associated energy fields is complex.
Healing is not necessarily synonymous with cure. Sometimes we heal physically, but not emotionally or spiritually. Sometimes we heal spirit and restore soul, but a physical cure remains elusive. In the past healing has focused on the physical body and mind but not on the human energy field. When body, soul and spirit respond in resonance, holistic integrity is restored. Diagnostic medical devices such as the PET, MRI, fMRI often produce results allowing others to claim demonstration of a human energy field that coexists with the physical body. The human energy field can be studied, even with some of the original Kirlian photographic techniques. Magnetic polarities and spin properties of molecules in the extracellular fluids of the body are described in the peer-reviewed and popular scientific literature. There already is a solidly rational basis for understanding health and degeneration of the human organism as well as how one organism may communicate energetically with another through time and space. Imbalances and problems show up in the human energy field before they manifest on a physical plane level. Also, many curative and healing processes begin in the human energy field before manifesting any signs in the physical body. This is the rationale for putting scientifically-based energy medicine into practice.
Psychoneuroimmunology is one scientific basis of holism that has become fashionable. This discipline is an exploration of the interconnections between the central and autonomic nervous systems, the immune system and the endocrine system. Other scientific studies look at the extracellular fluid and mechanisms of how cells communicate with each other. The cell membrane itself is made up of two layers that have a fascinating relationship to structural elements such as microtubules which facilitate communication. Exploring hormonal and chemical intercellular communication reveals a vast framework for further scientific research. A new family of relaxation hormones have been discovered which also lends a biochemical basis for many of the therapies in energy medicine. The physiologic interactions of emotional stress balancing techniques such as meditation and self-hypnosis have profound effects in both health and illness.
No one really knows how nonlocal healing works, but the empathic bond is one important aspect. Chaos theory describes how "emergent" healing depends on the nonlocal principles of nature's own self-organization. From chaos a field "emerges" and directly affects the mindbody energy fields of the organism. We believe that therapeutic entrainment which is present in the healing situation can be intentionally amplified by the mind to mobilize the healing process. The unconscious plays a role in such healing, because all the templates used during healing are located in the holographic records of our unconscious. It is not possible to differentiate local healing from nonlocal healing. All healing is essentially remote healing, regardless of how much distance is involved between healer and patient. Our assumption is that a cybernetic device becomes yet a third focus of consciousness in the healing process traditionally viewed as involving just the consciousness of two people.
From a spiritual point of view, when healing occurs, the process happens at an energy level where all consciousness is one. So by this definition, the cybernetic device has a form of electromagnetic consciousness which can also manifest at an energy level where all consciousness is one.
Because the issue of nonlocal healing is emotional and controversial does not mean we should stop seeking a deeper relationship between psyche, matter, and the human energy fields. On the contrary, it demands further exploration and application with an open mind and an open heart. Although research is important, Western science is obsessed with the mindless repetition of seeking out the smallest data to the exclusion of useful techniques and methodology. There can be a way to balance both in a way that is both sensible and humane.
Nonlocal healing, modulated by the principles and methodologies of Dissonance Resolution Meditation (DRM) and quantum biofeedback (QBF), is rooted in models describing nonlocal principles of time and space irrelevancy when going from the dimensions of quantum mechanics to the finer levels of quantum fields, quantum subspace, and string theory. Method. Direct application of quantum biofeedback principles makes it possible to create a synergism between the human energy fields and the electromagnetic fields of cybernetic systems, such as computers. Our alternative medicine research combines elements of homeopathic and allopathic healing remedies based on over nine thousand electromagnetic patterns that are each equivalent to one of those remedies. We describe an energy medicine technology researched and developed for over 25 years by William Nelson, a noted NASA scientist. The quantum biofeedback technology, EPFX-QXCI-SCIO, is sanctioned by the U.S. FDA as a biofeedback device and is currently employed for the purpose of stress reduction by medical and nonmedical practitioners who have been certified as biofeedback therapists or technicians. This technology is considered off-label or experimental in the U.S. for any other use, despite being accepted for medical diagnosis and treatment in the European Union, Russia, and many other parts of the world. Results. Our observations of stress reduction by medical personnel examine the foundation of this device modeled on principles from electro-acupuncture, homeopathy, and other alternative medical systems. Although the technology regularly employs conductive carbon electrodes attached to all four extremities and the forehead, we used the device to investigate long distance, nonlocal stress reduction. Conclusions. Observations of eight different patterns of stress reduction carried out over distance are correlated with psychophysical theories. The observations strongly suggest the efficacy of a nonlocal healing model, and partially explain epistemological and ideological barriers to conducting controlled research on nonlocal healing.

Intent Mediated Healing
EMERGENT HEALING as a model of Intent Mediated Healing
Iona Miller, Asklepia Foundation, 2003
http://emergentmind.org
You ought not to attempt to cure the eyes without the head,
Nor the head without the body,
So neither ought you attempt to cure the body without the soul
for the part can never be well unless the whole is well.
--Plato: Charmides, 156e
MIND/BODY CONNECTION
For most of human history, healing has had to do with contact with spirit, with consciousness, with rituals intended to create a shared biofield with a shaman who seemingly could exert mind over matter. This spiritual technology has yielded to technological medicine governed by the rational protocols of science. But noting that medical intuition and therapeutic rapport are real forces in the healing process, many practitioners are moving toward a new paradigm or model of healing.
Anomalies such as the proven power of prayer, placebo effect, spontaneous remission, therapeutic intentionality, and remote healing hint that the irrational, the mysterious, is an inherent part of the natural healing process. When we become ill, the fundamental nature of consciousness is revealed as it relates to both mind and matter, psyche and soma. Consciousness may be more fundamental than either energy or matter, as the Vedas claimed centuries ago. At this sensitive threshold, miniscule changes in the situation can lead to large differences in the outcome.
THE QUANTUM SELF
We need to remold our healing institutions to conform with new physics to develop a contemporary understanding of the mind/body. A new model of the human organism is emerging - a holistic rather than mechanistic model that theorizes our basis in the quantum world; it means healing can happen in very subtle ways, perhaps even at the quantum level.
“Emergence” is the process by which order appears spontaneously within a system. It is essential to understanding functional consciousness, the mind/body, subjective experience, and the healing process. When many elements of a system mingle, they form patterns among themselves as they interact.
When the mind lets go of its rational order, lets the old form die, and enters into unstructured chaos, the whole person emerges with a new form, embodied as a creative expression, an intuition, or as healing. Most often it is characterized by an element of novelty and surprise, since it apparently does not originate in what came before. Both healing and medical intuition are examples of emergence. It is a spontaneous solution to a problem.
HEALING PHILOSOPHIES
The healing arts, from conventional medicine to alternative/complementary medicine, and from psychology to pastoral counseling are undergoing a shift from a mechanistic to a holistic paradigm. Science is actually an experimental philosophy whose highest value is empiricism, and conventional healing shares this philosophy. All new scientific theories require some unifying idea, and that idea is, by definition, metaphysical or essentially untestable.
Today’s heresies are tomorrow’s dogmas. In any metaphysical dispute, strong non-scientific arguments can propose new theories, which may become scientific. Speculative ideas have contributed heavily to the growth of knowledge.
Rather than discouraging exploration of fringe areas of knowledge, this awareness makes it mandatory we explore all possible modalities and anomalies without prejudice, no matter how unconventional. Even extraordinary subjects may be approached with rigorous protocols. Though subjectivity is unwelcome in science, we can study the subjective nature of experience (qualia) in various ways. The process of healing is one such subjective experience.
The alchemists, who were students of consciousness in matter, created an elixir of life, a “medicine of philosophers”, a cure-all or panacea. What the modern world yearns for is a “meta-syn,” or visionary synthesis rooted not in a mechanistic model but one using nature’s own forms of self-organization.
This model is based on the peculiar characteristics of nonlocality and probability of quantum physics, rather than classical Newtonian mechanics. Hopefully, the new model has the power to resonate with our whole being and propel us into a more effective healing paradigm. Emergent healing is actually a treatment philosophy, rooted in a worldview born from our current understanding of the nature of Reality.
The emerging paradigm is a more subtle and energetic model of health. In the emergent healing paradigm, healing depends on the nonlocal principles of nature’s own self-organization, as well as on direct causal influences on the mind/body of the organism. It appeals to spirit, soul, and body.
Recognizing the complexity of reality, the new paradigm includes a series of perspectives, which emphasize the positive rather than pathological, health rather than sickness, and a holistic approach to health care.
In this qualitative, rather than outcome-oriented approach, subjective experience and process are valued. The fusion of mind, emotions, body and spirit is recognized as central. In this ecological approach, the individual is embedded within larger systems, not isolated as a disease process. When we treat a symptom or disease rather than the whole person, we treat the part not the whole.
Interdependence of individuals, societies, and nature can be honored. As our knowledge of nature is increased, our knowledge of our own nature also grows correspondingly. Health, self-healing, and therapeutics is a balance supported by many disciplines, including physics, biology, and psychology as well as medicine.
We have all noticed that often the physical body is healed, but not the emotional trauma; or perhaps there is spiritual or psychological healing, but not physical cure. Therefore, it only makes sense to treat the whole person, rather than just the symptomology.
PARADIGM SHIFT
Paradigms underlie the interplay of chaos and order in human culture, at the conscious and unconscious, collective and individual level. These tacit belief systems act as lenses through which all sensory data passes before it is experienced as perception. Some perceptions arrive relatively undisturbed while others are subject to immediate characterization, distortions, and value-judgments.
Old ideas die hard. The established order, materialism, is entrenched. Establishment science is always resistant to new ideas. Science deals with models and metaphors of our perception of reality. We have had science less than 500 years, but in that time it has transformed much of the world technologically, intellectually and physically.
Scientific models change as exploration leads to the discovery of new facts and approaches that work. Still, new models are slow to be embraced. The dominant worldview hangs on as tenaciously as geocentric religious views did in the Dark Ages.
A paradigm is a working set of assumptions and postulates, (a disciplinarian matrix), about a field of inquiry or practice such as healing. How we envision healing is as important as how we proceed to try to heal. It governs our protocols, what we notice and fail to notice, and how we evaluate the results. The theoretical construct defines our approach and methodology. It gains momentum over time.
Scientific exploration is not a linear process, but results from competition among theories. The best results of each system are then woven into a seamless fabric that, at least temporarily, defines the nature of that field. New observations can lead to complete revisioning of a discipline, like the emergence of quantum mechanics did in physics. Filling in theoretical gaps leads toward better explanations and solutions to problems.
Sometimes new paradigms coexist and develop alongside one another, until one supersedes the other. This is paradigm shift. Such has been the case in concurrent development of allopathic and alternative or energy medicine, also called integral medicine.
Both the conventional and integral approaches have long, noble histories, one rooted largely in western culture, the other in Asian systems. Allopathic doctors and patients themselves now recognize that strictly reductionistic and technologically-based medicine has its limitations in contemporary healthcare.
Objective science can be devoid of higher purpose and intentionality. Thus, we find ourselves with a host of ethical dilemmas in genetic engineering, transplant research, geriatrics, pharmacology, cloning, technological intervention, and molecular biology.
The relativism of postmodern deconstructionism has undermined all theoretical perspectives, turning them into or exposing them as social constructions. It is true that the healing arts are riddled with political, religious, and cultural biases. Health care has been delivered in terms of a power relationship over the body, superimposed on its biology.
There is a strong desire from the both the scientific community and public for a health system that values personal relationships, emotions, meaning, and beliefs. They connect body, mind, spirit, and society.
It is crucial to realize there is both rational and paradoxical healing, and both are vital to our well-being. Paradoxical thinking is unpredictable, unique, unforgettable, unrepeatable, and often indescribable. Breakthroughs are often paradoxical in nature, seemingly absurd, yet in fact true. Rational healing relies on doing, while paradoxical healing is rooted in ways of being. Physician Larry Dossey says it requires, “standing in the Mystery.”
There is a yearning to return “mystery” to the mechanistic arena of healing, so we can face illness and disease as whole organisms. Transpersonal forces have a valid place in healing, as they do in all areas of our existence. Many people have a sense of the importance of actively integrating spiritual principles with the material world.
The whole-systems approach co-exists with conventional medicine and is making inroads among its practitioners. Treating causes as well as symptoms, it mobilizes the patient’s will to live. It fosters the inner dimensions of the healing experience. The healing response includes behavioral, mental and spiritual shifts or transformations.
Health is the natural outcome of a meaningful life, not just absence of symptoms. It means a comprehension of the complexities of life that is deeper than the conventional worldview of cause and effect. It proposes that consciousness is the foundation of reality. We do not exist independently from the universe, but the exact nature of that seamless connection is unknown.
Rooted in relativity, quantum, holographic and chaos theories, a metaphysical context is provided to justify such a paradigm shift from the purely causal healing model. The interactive field (psychodynamic field) present in healing situations can be amplified intentionally through therapeutic entrainment, or resonant feedback playing off the unified field (universal field).
NEW CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK
No science or healing is independent of the realities of our fundamental consciousness. Consciousness is a process not an object. Neuroscientists have begun to study consciousness, both in its functional and universal aspects.
Some scientists try to reduce matter (brain cells) to consciousness while others are trying to reduce consciousness to matter. Some suggest (Newell), echoing ancient philosophies, that Absolute Consciousness may be a field that is always everywhere.
We are not discrete entities but deeply embedded within the fabric of the universe. The essence we share, more fundamental than matter and energy, may well be primordial consciousness. It may be the very basis of materiality, as the Vedas implied centuries ago. Consciousness involves the integration of information, not just a passive array of information itself.
We have many ways, besides our senses, of interfacing with reality, including intentionality, intuition, somatic perception, and direct apprehension. The new integral model of health and mind/body healing recognizes and operates from this expanded perspective and innovative medical options.
Consciousness - the intersubjective dimension - may be a stronger dynamic causal factor in healing than previously considered. Incorporating the full spectrum of human experience into healing promises new possibilities, new outcomes, which have been neglected in the biomedical model.
Conscious intentionality may influence subtle electromagnetic or quantum field energy processes. It affects the exchange of information at the cellular, organismic, and social level. Exceptional states of awareness (such as meditation, shamanic journeying, dreaming, dissociation, etc.) can lead to exceptional results, but they also require exceptional proof that may be difficult to produce in the laboratory or document objectively.
The emerging worldview extends our concepts beyond the domain of purely objective, reductionistic realism or materialism. The trend is moving from biophysical to psychophysical and psychospiritual dimensions without loss of scientific rigor.
Just as physics seeks a unified field theory, so the healing process needs a model that accounts for the mechanisms of natural healing and its anomalies such a placebo effect, spontaneous remission, even distant healing. Consciousness may just be an expression of such a universal field.
Models of healing in which disease is seen as an invasive process and the treatments are also invasive can give way to those following a natural, evolutionary course at the edge of chaos.
Rather than comparing healing to a fight, or war on an external invader, we can imagine it as the creation of healthy processes. New forms emerge from adaptations after the breakdown of old forms. In this synergetic view, the organism interacts with its total environment.
THREADS OF QUANTUM RESONANCE AND BIOFEEDBACK
Science proceeds by way of 'discovery,' as well as simple accumulation of information or even 'invention.' This is the basis of scientific revolutions, and paradigm shifts - "the tradition-shattering complements to the tradition-bound activity of normal science," (Kuhn, 1962). A paradigm can be a disciplinary matrix.. Paradigms are essentially worldviews -- expressing our beliefs about the way things work, including tacit assumptions.
Chaos Theory and Complexity have disclosed the self-organizing inner workings of non-linear dynamics in nature and human nature. Systems (and subsystems) are always connected in various ways to various degrees; energy and information is constantly exchanged. In complex phase interactions and dynamical energy systems, resonance is the key dynamic which couples them, increasing dimensional complexity and leading to emergence of new properties. "Emergent" means what comes from the new and creative resolution of chaos.
Interactive resonance occurs both within and between material systems, through recurrent feedback encoding a complex interactive history. Circulating recurrent feedback interactions (cyclic information) are the fundamental bases of holism. The more rapid the feedback, the more stable the holistic system. This circulation of energy and information allows them to interact as a whole.
According to one hypothesis, emergent healing depends on the nonlocal principles of nature's own self-organization, as well as on direct causal influences on the mindbody of the organism. It is proposed that the interactive field -- therapeutic entrainment -- present in the healing situation can be amplified intentionally to mobilize the psychophysical healing process.
INTRODUCTION TO REMOTE HEALING
Clearly, the whole story of human technology is the the story of the ascendency of mind over matter. Whether that is a triumph or a tragedy for humankind remains to be seen.
Conventional medicine takes an allopathic approach to healing, but Complementary Medicine works holistically in conjunction with it through compassionate intentionality. Historically, so-called spiritual healing or faith healing has been person-to-person, whether local or nonlocal. It works on the premise of evoking the healing potential through a commonly shared field-effect, electromagnetic physiological reactivity.
Today’s technology has allowed distance healers to experiment with technological aids to their healing practices. There are still many mysteries of the interactive field which remain to be explored.
With a phenomenological eye toward field dynamics, this exploration demonstrates an additional theoretical framework within the interactive field applicable to paradoxical healing. It opens creative and healing possibilities and allows for the active, intentional liberation of the psychophysical imaginal realm.
The genesis of the interactive field is rooted also in shamanic realms as a backdrop from which to see field theory. Shamanic expressions, ancient healing forces, of the unified field include mana, chi, prana, qi, kundalini, bioenergetics, psi faculty, universal energy, orgone, wakonda, etc. Field theory is also explored in the world of quantum physics where the universal field is examined from paradigms situated in varied consciousness models.
The somatic unconscious, an intrinsic part of the interactive field in mutual engagement with two or more persons, is also woven into this fabric. In this study it is an intersection between the universal field and the psychodynamic field -- embodying co-consciousness in healing. (Miller, 2003)
Just as traditional medicine identifies itself with the past through the Hippocratic Oath, this new orientation also draws on the ancient Greek and Egyptian healing cults and our collective taproot back into 50,000 years of shamanic healing culture. Like traditional physicians seek to identify themselves with the Hippocratic ideal, we can embody this paradigm, this philosophy, by embracing a worldview which is seemingly new, but older than history -- medical intuition and holistic spirituality. It doesn't negate or even supersede the Hippocratic orientation; in ancient Greece both the complementary methods of healing mind, body and spirit were part of the cult of Asklepios.
When conventional means failed, supplicants went to the dream temples to heal their psyches -- their souls -- they entered the Mysteries. These healing dreams somehow mobilized the nonrational elements of being and healing somehow emerged. But their notion of soul was not disembodied; it meant the whole psychophysical organism.
Ancient Vedic healers based their treatment in the philosophy that the common essence of humankind and cosmos was consciousness. Altering that primal essence, consciousness, could change one's state of health. It isn't really a case of activating mind over matter, but mobilizing what undergirds both mind and matter.
What, essentially, is this consciousness of which we speak? Can it be more than our subjective awareness, our existential experience -- the result of perceptual input and self-referential internal processing? Is it the very basis of materiality, a neutral essence more fundamental than energy or matter, more than microstates of the functioning of human wetware?
But, does psi or ESP even exist, or is it merely an optical illusion of the mind? There are volumes of research (Krippner, Motoyama, Honorton, Tart, Swann, Schwartz, Putoff and Targ, Radin, Utts and Nobel-winner Josephson) to suggest that it does, though skeptics staunchly maintain it does not. Because the issue is emotional and seemingly unresolved does not mean we should stop asking, looking for a deeper relationship of psyche and matter.
In fact, the mandate was laid down several decades ago by physicist Wolfgang Pauli when he worked with psychologist C.G. Jung: " We should now proceed to find a neutral, or unitarian, language in which every concept we use is applicable as well to the unconscious as to matter, in order to overcome this wrong view that the unconscious psyche and matter are two things."
However, as Carl Sagan also said, " Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence." Therefore, we will approach the notion from a variety of perspectives, from the "soft" science of psychology, and the "hard" science of physics, as well as the median position of alternative medicine -- transpersonal and energy medicine, with their holistic perspective. In this way we hope to create a circumspect view about and investigate the possibility of the role of co-consciousness in healing.
Preliminary research done by Dr. Hiroshi Motoyama in Japan has shown that a person emits very small amounts of visible light. The amount is so small that a photon counter is needed. Dr. Motoyama used shielded cages and custom-made sensors to discover that photon emission is higher at certain acupuncture points compared to a region of skin with no acupuncture point. According to unpublished research done by him in Japan, there is some indication that emission at certain acupuncture points is increased for persons with psychic abilities. The modern healer is moving away from epic, heroic models of power toward imaginative fantasy. Awareness is growing that image-consciousness heals (Miller and Miller, 1994).
The healing dyad is best characterized by its emphasis on intent. Both parties have the intention of engaging in a healing dynamic experience. This is the foundation or underlying raison d' etre of the therapeutic encounter. This intention can deepen into a linking or "hook up" of the individuals into a unified field, a shared resonant interactive field. This field seems to facilitate or mobilize the healing dynamic.
The facilitation of attentional resonance opens the participants to the simultaneous presence of both classical and acausal field phenomena. They are mutually connected through the unified field. The more mutual the process, the more the interactive field manifests. In this interactive field, we are embedded in an imaginally perceived whole situation -- an encompassing, infusing, and mutually interactive field, with conscious attention to the relationship.
SOME HISTORY OF REMOTE HEALING
The genesis of the interactive field is rooted in shamanic realms as a backdrop from which to see field theory. Shamanic expressions, ancient healing forces, of the unified field include mana, chi, prana, qi, kundalini, bioenergetics, psi faculty, Odic force, universal energy, orgone, wakonda, etc. Field theory is also explored in the world of quantum physics where the universal field is examined from paradigms situated in varied consciousness models.
The shaman is the archetype of the wounded-healer and is perceived as having social or personal power for vision and healing. Healers learn not to exploit or identify egotistically with this process of mobilizing the unconscious. Rather, they let it operate through them as guides or mentors, so the other can discover that the healing resources are within and find empowerment -- the dramatic healing breakthrough, (Swinney and Miller, 1993).
The history of modern remote healing is lost in antiquity, in 50,000 or more years of shamanic practice, but modern investigation began in earnest in the 1950s and 1960s. One of the pioneers of this era, is Dr. Hiroshi Motoyama of Japan. Motoyama conducted near- and distance-healing experiments in both screened (Faraday cages) and unscreened situations to test the potency of intentionality, and the ability to one human being to influence the physiology of another without direct contact.
Motoyama also worked with and incorporated the theories of Itzhak Bentov into his protocols. Bentov summarized his early findings in his work STALKING THE WILD PENDULUM (Bantam, 1977), a popular book which educated the public about resonance phenomena.
Medicine is mostly concerned with mass, the material aspect. Matter is a kind of accumulation of energy in a fixed order. Chaos is energy but random, not in order. But when the energy is fixed, in order, in a certain frequency, etc, it becomes quantum, and this quantum is the origin of mass. So this quantum forms an electron or a proton or nucleus and thence an atom. The atoms combine and they make molecules and the molecules combine to make DNA and protein and then us: matter-with-consciousness (Motoyama).
The first Motoyama-Bentov Fellow in Japan was Marshall F. Gilula, M.D., is a Neuropsychiatrist with a specialty in EEG. Over the years, Dr. Gilula has employed both software and hardware in his healing practice. Because of his psychiatric background, he has also focused on "wetware" (the human brain and it's relationship to hardware and software. He was one of many pioneers in applying neural stimulators such as TENS and CES during the Seventies and did research in Moscow as a US-USSR Exchange Scientist for NIH's Fogarty Center. CES (Cranial Electrotherapy Stimulation) has been shown by some investigators to affect the mean dominant frequency of certain brainwave frequencies such as the alpha frequency.
SUBTLE ENERGIES
Numerous controlled studies suggest that conscious intent can initiate helpful changes in a variety of organisms, including human beings, at great distances. These events appear to be genuinely nonlocal in nature. They do not yield to explanations based in classical concepts of energy, space, time, and causation. Classical models of distant healing, including the concept of "energy," must be reexamined. A new theoretical perspective, anchored in the nonlocal nature of human consciousness, may be necessary if we are to progress in our understanding of nonlocal healing events. (Dossey, 1994)
The International Society for the Study of Subtle Energies and Energy Medicine was founded in 1989 in Colorado. ISSSEEM was founded to explore the application of subtle energies to the experience of consciousness, healing, and human potential and is designed as a bridging organization for scientists, clinicians, therapists, healers, and laypeople. ISSSEEM encourages experimental exploration of the phenomena long associated with the practice of energy healing. ISSSEEM has made one definition of Energy Medicine.
Energy Medicine includes all energetic and informational interactions resulting from self-regulation or brought about through other energy linkages to mind and body. In addition to various therapeutic energies which we may use, there are also energy pulses from the environment which influence humans and animals in a variety of ways.
For instance, low-level changes in magnetic, electric, electromagnetic, acoustic, and gravitational fields often have profound effects on both biology and psychology. In addition to energies originating in the environment, it has been documented that humans are capable of generating and controlling subtle, not-yet-measurable energies that seem to influence both physiological and physical mechanisms.
Subtle Energies, compared with "energy medicine," is a concept more difficult to define within the current scientific paradigm. Ancient and modern wisdom traditions describe human bioenergies referred to by many names (e.g., chi, ki, prana, etheric energy, fohat, orgone, odic force, mana, homeopathic resonance) that is believed to move throughout the so-called "etheric" (or subtle) energy body and thus is difficult to measure using conventional instrumentation.
In addition, many of the complementary and alternative therapies that are becoming increasingly popular appear to involve the flow of these subtle energies through the dense physical body. In addition, it is traditionally accepted that expansions of consciousness often are related to changes in subtle energies that cannot be quantified. These latter "energies", which are said to be associated with interactions and with transcendence, may not, in fact, actually be involved with known physical fields.
RESONANCE THERAPY
Quantum Resonance is a comparatively new field of energy medicine/vibrational medicine that addresses the body electric. Once tested, energetic therapy helps to neutralize dis-ease and imbalances in the body and provide ordering patterns to harmonize the system. Quantum therapy works to balance physical trauma and emotional trauma by stimulating the mind to naturally balance the body.

You ought not to attempt to cure the eyes without the head,
Nor the head without the body,
So neither ought you attempt to cure the body without the soul
for the part can never be well unless the whole is well.
--Plato: Charmides, 156e
MIND/BODY CONNECTION
For most of human history, healing has had to do with contact with spirit, with consciousness, with rituals intended to create a shared biofield with a shaman who seemingly could exert mind over matter. This spiritual technology has yielded to technological medicine governed by the rational protocols of science. But noting that medical intuition and therapeutic rapport are real forces in the healing process, many practitioners are moving toward a new paradigm or model of healing.
Anomalies such as the proven power of prayer, placebo effect, spontaneous remission, therapeutic intentionality, and remote healing hint that the irrational, the mysterious, is an inherent part of the natural healing process. When we become ill, the fundamental nature of consciousness is revealed as it relates to both mind and matter, psyche and soma. Consciousness may be more fundamental than either energy or matter, as the Vedas claimed centuries ago. At this sensitive threshold, miniscule changes in the situation can lead to large differences in the outcome.
THE QUANTUM SELF
We need to remold our healing institutions to conform with new physics to develop a contemporary understanding of the mind/body. A new model of the human organism is emerging - a holistic rather than mechanistic model that theorizes our basis in the quantum world; it means healing can happen in very subtle ways, perhaps even at the quantum level.
“Emergence” is the process by which order appears spontaneously within a system. It is essential to understanding functional consciousness, the mind/body, subjective experience, and the healing process. When many elements of a system mingle, they form patterns among themselves as they interact.
When the mind lets go of its rational order, lets the old form die, and enters into unstructured chaos, the whole person emerges with a new form, embodied as a creative expression, an intuition, or as healing. Most often it is characterized by an element of novelty and surprise, since it apparently does not originate in what came before. Both healing and medical intuition are examples of emergence. It is a spontaneous solution to a problem.
HEALING PHILOSOPHIES
The healing arts, from conventional medicine to alternative/complementary medicine, and from psychology to pastoral counseling are undergoing a shift from a mechanistic to a holistic paradigm. Science is actually an experimental philosophy whose highest value is empiricism, and conventional healing shares this philosophy. All new scientific theories require some unifying idea, and that idea is, by definition, metaphysical or essentially untestable.
Today’s heresies are tomorrow’s dogmas. In any metaphysical dispute, strong non-scientific arguments can propose new theories, which may become scientific. Speculative ideas have contributed heavily to the growth of knowledge.
Rather than discouraging exploration of fringe areas of knowledge, this awareness makes it mandatory we explore all possible modalities and anomalies without prejudice, no matter how unconventional. Even extraordinary subjects may be approached with rigorous protocols. Though subjectivity is unwelcome in science, we can study the subjective nature of experience (qualia) in various ways. The process of healing is one such subjective experience.
The alchemists, who were students of consciousness in matter, created an elixir of life, a “medicine of philosophers”, a cure-all or panacea. What the modern world yearns for is a “meta-syn,” or visionary synthesis rooted not in a mechanistic model but one using nature’s own forms of self-organization.
This model is based on the peculiar characteristics of nonlocality and probability of quantum physics, rather than classical Newtonian mechanics. Hopefully, the new model has the power to resonate with our whole being and propel us into a more effective healing paradigm. Emergent healing is actually a treatment philosophy, rooted in a worldview born from our current understanding of the nature of Reality.
The emerging paradigm is a more subtle and energetic model of health. In the emergent healing paradigm, healing depends on the nonlocal principles of nature’s own self-organization, as well as on direct causal influences on the mind/body of the organism. It appeals to spirit, soul, and body.
Recognizing the complexity of reality, the new paradigm includes a series of perspectives, which emphasize the positive rather than pathological, health rather than sickness, and a holistic approach to health care.
In this qualitative, rather than outcome-oriented approach, subjective experience and process are valued. The fusion of mind, emotions, body and spirit is recognized as central. In this ecological approach, the individual is embedded within larger systems, not isolated as a disease process. When we treat a symptom or disease rather than the whole person, we treat the part not the whole.
Interdependence of individuals, societies, and nature can be honored. As our knowledge of nature is increased, our knowledge of our own nature also grows correspondingly. Health, self-healing, and therapeutics is a balance supported by many disciplines, including physics, biology, and psychology as well as medicine.
We have all noticed that often the physical body is healed, but not the emotional trauma; or perhaps there is spiritual or psychological healing, but not physical cure. Therefore, it only makes sense to treat the whole person, rather than just the symptomology.
PARADIGM SHIFT
Paradigms underlie the interplay of chaos and order in human culture, at the conscious and unconscious, collective and individual level. These tacit belief systems act as lenses through which all sensory data passes before it is experienced as perception. Some perceptions arrive relatively undisturbed while others are subject to immediate characterization, distortions, and value-judgments.
Old ideas die hard. The established order, materialism, is entrenched. Establishment science is always resistant to new ideas. Science deals with models and metaphors of our perception of reality. We have had science less than 500 years, but in that time it has transformed much of the world technologically, intellectually and physically.
Scientific models change as exploration leads to the discovery of new facts and approaches that work. Still, new models are slow to be embraced. The dominant worldview hangs on as tenaciously as geocentric religious views did in the Dark Ages.
A paradigm is a working set of assumptions and postulates, (a disciplinarian matrix), about a field of inquiry or practice such as healing. How we envision healing is as important as how we proceed to try to heal. It governs our protocols, what we notice and fail to notice, and how we evaluate the results. The theoretical construct defines our approach and methodology. It gains momentum over time.
Scientific exploration is not a linear process, but results from competition among theories. The best results of each system are then woven into a seamless fabric that, at least temporarily, defines the nature of that field. New observations can lead to complete revisioning of a discipline, like the emergence of quantum mechanics did in physics. Filling in theoretical gaps leads toward better explanations and solutions to problems.
Sometimes new paradigms coexist and develop alongside one another, until one supersedes the other. This is paradigm shift. Such has been the case in concurrent development of allopathic and alternative or energy medicine, also called integral medicine.
Both the conventional and integral approaches have long, noble histories, one rooted largely in western culture, the other in Asian systems. Allopathic doctors and patients themselves now recognize that strictly reductionistic and technologically-based medicine has its limitations in contemporary healthcare.
Objective science can be devoid of higher purpose and intentionality. Thus, we find ourselves with a host of ethical dilemmas in genetic engineering, transplant research, geriatrics, pharmacology, cloning, technological intervention, and molecular biology.
The relativism of postmodern deconstructionism has undermined all theoretical perspectives, turning them into or exposing them as social constructions. It is true that the healing arts are riddled with political, religious, and cultural biases. Health care has been delivered in terms of a power relationship over the body, superimposed on its biology.
There is a strong desire from the both the scientific community and public for a health system that values personal relationships, emotions, meaning, and beliefs. They connect body, mind, spirit, and society.
It is crucial to realize there is both rational and paradoxical healing, and both are vital to our well-being. Paradoxical thinking is unpredictable, unique, unforgettable, unrepeatable, and often indescribable. Breakthroughs are often paradoxical in nature, seemingly absurd, yet in fact true. Rational healing relies on doing, while paradoxical healing is rooted in ways of being. Physician Larry Dossey says it requires, “standing in the Mystery.”
There is a yearning to return “mystery” to the mechanistic arena of healing, so we can face illness and disease as whole organisms. Transpersonal forces have a valid place in healing, as they do in all areas of our existence. Many people have a sense of the importance of actively integrating spiritual principles with the material world.
The whole-systems approach co-exists with conventional medicine and is making inroads among its practitioners. Treating causes as well as symptoms, it mobilizes the patient’s will to live. It fosters the inner dimensions of the healing experience. The healing response includes behavioral, mental and spiritual shifts or transformations.
Health is the natural outcome of a meaningful life, not just absence of symptoms. It means a comprehension of the complexities of life that is deeper than the conventional worldview of cause and effect. It proposes that consciousness is the foundation of reality. We do not exist independently from the universe, but the exact nature of that seamless connection is unknown.
Rooted in relativity, quantum, holographic and chaos theories, a metaphysical context is provided to justify such a paradigm shift from the purely causal healing model. The interactive field (psychodynamic field) present in healing situations can be amplified intentionally through therapeutic entrainment, or resonant feedback playing off the unified field (universal field).
NEW CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK
No science or healing is independent of the realities of our fundamental consciousness. Consciousness is a process not an object. Neuroscientists have begun to study consciousness, both in its functional and universal aspects.

Consciousness - the intersubjective dimension - may be a stronger dynamic causal factor in healing than previously considered. Incorporating the full spectrum of human experience into healing promises new possibilities, new outcomes, which have been neglected in the biomedical model.

The emerging worldview extends our concepts beyond the domain of purely objective, reductionistic realism or materialism. The trend is moving from biophysical to psychophysical and psychospiritual dimensions without loss of scientific rigor.
Just as physics seeks a unified field theory, so the healing process needs a model that accounts for the mechanisms of natural healing and its anomalies such a placebo effect, spontaneous remission, even distant healing. Consciousness may just be an expression of such a universal field.
Models of healing in which disease is seen as an invasive process and the treatments are also invasive can give way to those following a natural, evolutionary course at the edge of chaos.
Rather than comparing healing to a fight, or war on an external invader, we can imagine it as the creation of healthy processes. New forms emerge from adaptations after the breakdown of old forms. In this synergetic view, the organism interacts with its total environment.

The somatic unconscious, an intrinsic part of the interactive field in mutual engagement with two or more persons, is also woven into this fabric. In this study it is an intersection between the universal field and the psychodynamic field -- embodying co-consciousness in healing. (Miller, 2003)
Just as traditional medicine identifies itself with the past through the Hippocratic Oath, this new orientation also draws on the ancient Greek and Egyptian healing cults and our collective taproot back into 50,000 years of shamanic healing culture. Like traditional physicians seek to identify themselves with the Hippocratic ideal, we can embody this paradigm, this philosophy, by embracing a worldview which is seemingly new, but older than history -- medical intuition and holistic spirituality. It doesn't negate or even supersede the Hippocratic orientation; in ancient Greece both the complementary methods of healing mind, body and spirit were part of the cult of Asklepios.
When conventional means failed, supplicants went to the dream temples to heal their psyches -- their souls -- they entered the Mysteries. These healing dreams somehow mobilized the nonrational elements of being and healing somehow emerged. But their notion of soul was not disembodied; it meant the whole psychophysical organism.
Ancient Vedic healers based their treatment in the philosophy that the common essence of humankind and cosmos was consciousness. Altering that primal essence, consciousness, could change one's state of health. It isn't really a case of activating mind over matter, but mobilizing what undergirds both mind and matter.
What, essentially, is this consciousness of which we speak? Can it be more than our subjective awareness, our existential experience -- the result of perceptual input and self-referential internal processing? Is it the very basis of materiality, a neutral essence more fundamental than energy or matter, more than microstates of the functioning of human wetware?
But, does psi or ESP even exist, or is it merely an optical illusion of the mind? There are volumes of research (Krippner, Motoyama, Honorton, Tart, Swann, Schwartz, Putoff and Targ, Radin, Utts and Nobel-winner Josephson) to suggest that it does, though skeptics staunchly maintain it does not. Because the issue is emotional and seemingly unresolved does not mean we should stop asking, looking for a deeper relationship of psyche and matter.
In fact, the mandate was laid down several decades ago by physicist Wolfgang Pauli when he worked with psychologist C.G. Jung: " We should now proceed to find a neutral, or unitarian, language in which every concept we use is applicable as well to the unconscious as to matter, in order to overcome this wrong view that the unconscious psyche and matter are two things."
However, as Carl Sagan also said, " Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence." Therefore, we will approach the notion from a variety of perspectives, from the "soft" science of psychology, and the "hard" science of physics, as well as the median position of alternative medicine -- transpersonal and energy medicine, with their holistic perspective. In this way we hope to create a circumspect view about and investigate the possibility of the role of co-consciousness in healing.
Preliminary research done by Dr. Hiroshi Motoyama in Japan has shown that a person emits very small amounts of visible light. The amount is so small that a photon counter is needed. Dr. Motoyama used shielded cages and custom-made sensors to discover that photon emission is higher at certain acupuncture points compared to a region of skin with no acupuncture point. According to unpublished research done by him in Japan, there is some indication that emission at certain acupuncture points is increased for persons with psychic abilities. The modern healer is moving away from epic, heroic models of power toward imaginative fantasy. Awareness is growing that image-consciousness heals (Miller and Miller, 1994).
The healing dyad is best characterized by its emphasis on intent. Both parties have the intention of engaging in a healing dynamic experience. This is the foundation or underlying raison d' etre of the therapeutic encounter. This intention can deepen into a linking or "hook up" of the individuals into a unified field, a shared resonant interactive field. This field seems to facilitate or mobilize the healing dynamic.
The facilitation of attentional resonance opens the participants to the simultaneous presence of both classical and acausal field phenomena. They are mutually connected through the unified field. The more mutual the process, the more the interactive field manifests. In this interactive field, we are embedded in an imaginally perceived whole situation -- an encompassing, infusing, and mutually interactive field, with conscious attention to the relationship.
SOME HISTORY OF REMOTE HEALING
The genesis of the interactive field is rooted in shamanic realms as a backdrop from which to see field theory. Shamanic expressions, ancient healing forces, of the unified field include mana, chi, prana, qi, kundalini, bioenergetics, psi faculty, Odic force, universal energy, orgone, wakonda, etc. Field theory is also explored in the world of quantum physics where the universal field is examined from paradigms situated in varied consciousness models.
The shaman is the archetype of the wounded-healer and is perceived as having social or personal power for vision and healing. Healers learn not to exploit or identify egotistically with this process of mobilizing the unconscious. Rather, they let it operate through them as guides or mentors, so the other can discover that the healing resources are within and find empowerment -- the dramatic healing breakthrough, (Swinney and Miller, 1993).
The history of modern remote healing is lost in antiquity, in 50,000 or more years of shamanic practice, but modern investigation began in earnest in the 1950s and 1960s. One of the pioneers of this era, is Dr. Hiroshi Motoyama of Japan. Motoyama conducted near- and distance-healing experiments in both screened (Faraday cages) and unscreened situations to test the potency of intentionality, and the ability to one human being to influence the physiology of another without direct contact.
Motoyama also worked with and incorporated the theories of Itzhak Bentov into his protocols. Bentov summarized his early findings in his work STALKING THE WILD PENDULUM (Bantam, 1977), a popular book which educated the public about resonance phenomena.
Medicine is mostly concerned with mass, the material aspect. Matter is a kind of accumulation of energy in a fixed order. Chaos is energy but random, not in order. But when the energy is fixed, in order, in a certain frequency, etc, it becomes quantum, and this quantum is the origin of mass. So this quantum forms an electron or a proton or nucleus and thence an atom. The atoms combine and they make molecules and the molecules combine to make DNA and protein and then us: matter-with-consciousness (Motoyama).
The first Motoyama-Bentov Fellow in Japan was Marshall F. Gilula, M.D., is a Neuropsychiatrist with a specialty in EEG. Over the years, Dr. Gilula has employed both software and hardware in his healing practice. Because of his psychiatric background, he has also focused on "wetware" (the human brain and it's relationship to hardware and software. He was one of many pioneers in applying neural stimulators such as TENS and CES during the Seventies and did research in Moscow as a US-USSR Exchange Scientist for NIH's Fogarty Center. CES (Cranial Electrotherapy Stimulation) has been shown by some investigators to affect the mean dominant frequency of certain brainwave frequencies such as the alpha frequency.
SUBTLE ENERGIES
Numerous controlled studies suggest that conscious intent can initiate helpful changes in a variety of organisms, including human beings, at great distances. These events appear to be genuinely nonlocal in nature. They do not yield to explanations based in classical concepts of energy, space, time, and causation. Classical models of distant healing, including the concept of "energy," must be reexamined. A new theoretical perspective, anchored in the nonlocal nature of human consciousness, may be necessary if we are to progress in our understanding of nonlocal healing events. (Dossey, 1994)
The International Society for the Study of Subtle Energies and Energy Medicine was founded in 1989 in Colorado. ISSSEEM was founded to explore the application of subtle energies to the experience of consciousness, healing, and human potential and is designed as a bridging organization for scientists, clinicians, therapists, healers, and laypeople. ISSSEEM encourages experimental exploration of the phenomena long associated with the practice of energy healing. ISSSEEM has made one definition of Energy Medicine.
Energy Medicine includes all energetic and informational interactions resulting from self-regulation or brought about through other energy linkages to mind and body. In addition to various therapeutic energies which we may use, there are also energy pulses from the environment which influence humans and animals in a variety of ways.
For instance, low-level changes in magnetic, electric, electromagnetic, acoustic, and gravitational fields often have profound effects on both biology and psychology. In addition to energies originating in the environment, it has been documented that humans are capable of generating and controlling subtle, not-yet-measurable energies that seem to influence both physiological and physical mechanisms.
Subtle Energies, compared with "energy medicine," is a concept more difficult to define within the current scientific paradigm. Ancient and modern wisdom traditions describe human bioenergies referred to by many names (e.g., chi, ki, prana, etheric energy, fohat, orgone, odic force, mana, homeopathic resonance) that is believed to move throughout the so-called "etheric" (or subtle) energy body and thus is difficult to measure using conventional instrumentation.
In addition, many of the complementary and alternative therapies that are becoming increasingly popular appear to involve the flow of these subtle energies through the dense physical body. In addition, it is traditionally accepted that expansions of consciousness often are related to changes in subtle energies that cannot be quantified. These latter "energies", which are said to be associated with interactions and with transcendence, may not, in fact, actually be involved with known physical fields.
RESONANCE THERAPY
Quantum Resonance is a comparatively new field of energy medicine/vibrational medicine that addresses the body electric. Once tested, energetic therapy helps to neutralize dis-ease and imbalances in the body and provide ordering patterns to harmonize the system. Quantum therapy works to balance physical trauma and emotional trauma by stimulating the mind to naturally balance the body.
Dr. Motoyama's Book
Religion and Humanity for a Global Society
Dr. Hiroshi Motoyama has been a brilliant and innovative pioneer in the exploration of human consciousness, making contributions to the scientific investigation of conscious phenomena as well as their philosophical implications. In Religion and Humanity for a Global Society, Dr. Motoyama expands his perspective to the world-at large, providing a visionary paradigm for the survival of humanity as well as its spiritual enhancement. -Stanley Krippner, Ph.D.
Professor of Psychology
Saybrook Institute Graduate School
Hiroshi Motoyama’s Religion and Humanity for a Global Society advances an argument for a global religion and humanity to envision a future global society. It accomplishes this task through a comparative study between eastern and western religions (Judaism, Christianity, Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism), while guiding this argument through his own personal religious/psychic experiences and scientific experiments on these phenomena. A background concern that informs this work is the unprecedented problems we face today on a global scale (e.g. ecological crises, inter-ethnic conflicts, and the population explosion). Coupled with this, there is, among the industrialized nations, a rise in crime, drug, and alcohol addiction, divorce, sexual abuse and violence in the city, although the degree of these distortions and disorientation may vary from country to country. As a corrective to these problems the book demands a fundamental reflection on the western word-view and belief system.

Dr. Hiroshi Motoyama, a well-known Japanese scholar, was born in Japan in 1925. Dr. Motoyama graduated from the Tokyo University of Literature and Science with Ph.D. degrees in Philosophy and Physiological Psychology, and was awarded a prestigious prize for his work in the comparative study of Eastern and Western mysticism. Dr. Motoyama is both a scientist trained in empirical methodology and a psychic who has experientially gained deep philosophical knowledge. He is the head Shinto priest of the Tamamitsu Shrine in Tokyo, and a yogi well-versed in the yoga treatises. His scientific endeavors resulted in the establishment of the Institute for Religious Psychology, a research facility (1960), and the International Association for Religion and Parapsychology, an international organization whose members are not only composed of scientists in theses and related fields, but are from diverse professions (1972). For the purpose of specialized research in the field of life physics, the Motoyama Institute for Life Physics was established in 1990. Dr. Motoyama is the author of over 50 books (Japanese and other languages) and numerous monographs and papers, and has traveled widely throughout the world, participating in conferences and workshops, and presenting his work.
In recognition of his important work in the field, he was awarded the McDougall Research Fund Award from Duke University in 1962, selected as one of the world’s leading parapsychologists by UNESCO in 1974, recognized as an “ordinary academician” by the Instituto di Cultura Universitaria e di Studi Superiori, Academia Tiberina in 1977 and awarded Dr. J. B. Rhine Biennial Research Award in 1996. He has also been honored by several renowned scientific and religious organizations. He serves as an advisor/lecturer to various international associations and institutes, and as a member of the editorial board of international journals in related fields.
In 1980, he established the Motoyoma-Bentov Fund Research Fellowship to assist promising scientists who wish to study human existence in its holistic sense.In 1991, he established the Southern California Institute Japan Branch (Graduate School) in Tokyo. In 1992, he established California Institute for Human Science in the hope of 1) elucidating the mechanism of the correlation between mind and body; 2) understanding the human mind (unconscious, conscious, superconscious); 3) synthesizing Eastern and Western religions; and 4) synthesizing Eastern and Western medicine (energy medicine and health science). He invites reputable researchers and scholars as professors of the school in order to educate promising researchers. Dr. Motoyama established CIHS in the belief that this project is important for the realization of a global society – one which will require individuals with mental and spiritual development.
Dr Motoyama is a scientist as well as a yogi, philosopher and priest. He is a man of many varied interests and talents specializing in oriental medicine, computing and electrical engineering who is also a parapsychologist, spiritual healer and seer. He is head of the Institute for Life Physics, Tokyo, and the California Institute for Human Science, California. He is concerned with elucidating the nature of religious experience and the existence of 'subtle energies' using scientific methods. To aid in this he has built two machines: one to measure the 'ki' energy in the meridians (the AMI machine) and another to measure the energy of the chakras or energy centres of the body (The Chakra instrument). The AMI instrument is in use in some American and many Japanese medical institutions as a diagnostic tool and for research into health and disease and also the paranormal. In this interview with Share International he talks about some of his scientific ideas and thoughts for the future development of this area of research and diagnosis.
Share International: Dr Motoyama, could you tell us how you got the idea for building the AMI machine and what are the actual physical principles on which it is based?
Dr Hiroshi Motoyama: Yes. I had many experiences, beginning 40 to 45 years ago, of the flow of vital energies during my yoga exercises and I clearly felt, around the meridians [energy channels], some vital energy like water and heat going around my body. Particularly I felt Kundalini Shakti or power was very strong around the spine. At about this time I suffered a lot from disease and instability and for this reason I often couldn't get up, so I decided to practise Yoga. After six months to a year I was so much better that I began to experience for myself the ki or prana energy in my body.
Later when I was a young lecturer in science at Tokyo University, my students did not believe me when I told them of my experiences, using logical arguments only. I thought that their minds were too heavily influenced by science and so I wanted to verify such vital or subtle energies flowing in the body by scientific methods or research.The first time I measured this type of body function was with the EEG Electroencephalogram or ECG Electrocardiogram methods used in traditional Western medicine, but it is very difficult to detect such energy, and Western medicine can 'catch' only the nervous or muscle tension in the form of electricity, electrical potential or active potential in the nerves.
One day, about 25 years ago, I was invited by a visiting professor to his university in India where we examined, using EEG and so-on, Yogis and T'ai Chi Chuan masters. I think all the hard work we did gave me a stomach ulcer, partly because during the spiritual consultations I did with many people I used only the Manipura (solar plexus or Hara) chakra, which connects to the stomach meridian.After my stay in India I thought perhaps my investigations of such an idea of prana or ki energy were wrong, as we cannot measure or detect these energies with traditional medical instruments. So I decided to develop a new machine. I had studied electronic engineering while at the naval academy and at university, so now I was able to build a circuit to make a new machine to find a way of detecting the 'body fluid function'. That is the history of the AMI, which stands for Apparatus for measuring the functioning of the Meridians and their corresponding Internal organs.
SI: Have you built any other machines apart from the AMI?
HM: Yes. My other machine is the chakra machine which was developed two-to-three years after completing the AMI machine. By directing energy from the subtle energy centre of the chakra the surrounding electromagnetic environment can perhaps be changed. Also the lower body has a kind of static potential which disappears when energy is discharged from the body. So, in a completely dark room, insulated from physical energies from outside, a person with psychic ability can direct energy via their awakened chakra and produce light and we can detect this light and its direction. The instrument to detect this light and the changes in the electromagnetic field is called the chakra machine. This machine's first aim was to register light or psychokinetic power and to see if it could influence an electrical atmosphere, or whether a person can produce light or not.
SI: Can you yourself detect or see whether an illness has a karmic cause, is incurable, or whether it can be cured?
HM: That depends on one's understanding of the human being. I understand the human being to consist of three dimensions: a body, mind and spirit and each of them has individuality. If the problem or cause comes from the spiritual dimension it is generally caused by previous karma and cannot usually be cured by Western medicine. Disease at the mental level is caused by things that happen in a person's present life, producing unstable states of mind, and this can be cured by hypnosis or psychotherapy or psychological approaches. In that case the person only needs to understand the reason, the causes that create the problem in the mind. On the physical level, if the body has been affected by a germ, one only needs medication and often in a short time the person will be cured.
A karmic disease, or constitutional handicap caused by karma, is very difficult to cure, but if we always pray to God to help such people, then in many cases they can be cured within five or 10 years. The key point is that they should accept the previous life that relates to their disease. This is a first step in controlling the emotions and one can then observe oneself from the outside. That is the starting point. They pray to God and gradually they can control their emotions and the very egocentric persistence (attitude) of the person gradually disappears. They can then be intact and in a balanced state with other people; and they will be cured.
SI: There is a dichotomy between orthodox medicine and the new type of healing arts based on the meridians and chakras. Do you think your work has helped to bridge this gap, or is doing so?
HM: Yes, I think it has, because medicine is mostly concerned with mass, the material aspect. Matter is a kind of accumulation of energy in a fixed order. Chaos is energy but random, not in order. But when the energy is fixed, in order, in a certain frequency, etc, it becomes quantum, and this quantum is the origin of mass. So this quantum forms an electron or a proton or nucleus and thence an atom. The atoms combine and they make molecules and the molecules combine to make DNA and protein and then us: matter-with-consciousness. So any kind of mass is created by energy. This energy is now divided into four kinds: the weak nuclear, strong nuclear, the electromagnetic and gravitational. Before it was divided into these four, maybe the energy was one and this energy, I think, is the ki energy. (Both ki energy and physical energy are important in healing and this has been the focus of my work.)
SI: Ah, this is the ki, you think?
HM: Yes, but ki energy is still in the physical dimension even if it is the 'beginning of the physical dimension'. So it will be restricted by space and time, for example the T'ai Chi Chuan master we studied can only project his ki energy within a fixed distance. This ki energy is a mediator between the mental or psychic and the physical dimension.
So we are proceeding now from Western medicine, which deals with mass in the chemical form only to the medicine of energy. Then, beyond that, maybe we will reach the psychic and spiritual level.
SI: Your work, I would say, verifies the existence of the chakras and meridians. Do you have any scientific theory as to why the chakras and meridians are of their particular form or why they follow their particular paths?
HM: Before we make a theory we must find out the facts. So at my Research Institute we measured many subjects, maybe about 100,000 so far (over 20 years), and fortunately we have been able to investigate many psychics, martial arts masters and yogis as well as students of our own disciplines, yoga exercises and meditation, and so-on. We have been able to detect the chakras, and also I have some ability to see the chakras and whether they are awakened in a person or not. So firstly I would clearly see with my ESP ability [psychic ability] which chakra is awakened.
If the chakra is awakened we can see the very bright colours of the aura and also feel much energy from this awakened chakra. Then we measured subjects with the AMI machine and have been able to determine if particular chakras are awakened, for example those who have the manipura chakra awakened have highly energized spleen, liver, stomach meridians. After analysing much data obtained from many kinds of psychics or 'normal' people, I found, on the basis of this data and on the basis of my own super-natural understanding of such people, that we could connect the specific meridians with each chakra and link this with traditional theories about the chakras. For example, a person with an awakened manipura chakra can control the emotions, and also the functioning of the digestive system. We learnt much about each meridian and chakra from working with yogis and could link this with our AMI data.
SI: I know you have done some work on telepathy between individuals and have found how different kinds of telepathy affect the different chakras. Could you say something about that?
HM: Telepathy usually affects, in different ways, the different chakras. Mostly, telepathy in which companions are connected or related by their emotions or by the imagination is due to the manipura centre (solar plexus) receiving that telepathy. The person who has awakened the manipura is very sensitive, can be affected by other people very easily and finds it easy to receive information from 'outside'. They can easily be influenced by the power of the other person and information can easily come in. However if a person has awakened the ajna chakra [the energy centre between the eyebrows] the telepathy is very different. Then it is a very pure, intellectual telepathy and very clear, whereas the telepathy given through the manipura chakra is very much connected with the emotions and with a person's own imagination. Sometimes it can be mixed with unconscious thoughts. If either the manipura or the ajna centre is awakened, it is possible to both receive telepathy or send telepathic transmission at will to others. However in the case where the svadisthana chakra [the sacral centre] is awakened, all such people have some telepathic ability and can receive some information from others, but the ability is only spontaneous; they cannot control it at will and cannot send telepathic thoughts to others. So if people say they sometimes have intuition or telepathy but they cannot control it at will, that means their telepathy mostly belongs to the svadisthana chakra, and is very raw.
SI: Could you explain a little bit about what you mean by subjective and objective science?
HM: Objective science means we can understand or observe something from a common base with other people. Sometimes also objective means the science that is based on the sense perceptions. For example, I can see this cup: you can see it also, and this means we can say it is objective. But the subjective is always there. For example we both see this cup but perhaps you perceive it differently from me according to your subjective feeling and understanding which is different from mine. We can say the same thing about intuition or telepathy. Sometimes people say that intuition is very subjective, but I don't think so. If you have the same ability as I have, you can, for example, see the same kind of spiritual entity as I do, so sometimes during meditation with my disciples and students we receive the same kind of telepathic information. That means some activity common to all, doesn't it? So there are many meanings of objective and subjective.
SI: My understanding of quantum physics is that the observer can actually affect what is observed, that the two are linked. Doesn't this form a link between Western science and Eastern philosophies or religions?
HM: The quantum, for instance, as in the Heisenberg uncertainty principle, depends only on the instrument we use to observe things. For instance if we use a photon to observe elementary particles like electrons or neutrons, according to the type of measurement used we can measure the position of the particle but we don't know it's velocity. But if we observe the particle in a different way then we can know its velocity but not its position. So from this we can understand the uncertainty principle, but we still separate the object and the subject.
They say if we look in a different way we can see a different thing even though it is the same thing. In the case of psychokinetic energy, we send out some energy and an object can be created or changed. In quantum physics they are still separated, things are not affected by the mind. That's completely different, is it not? But now in order to bridge this kind of scientific view we are proceeding more and more in the subtle area, in the subtle dimension, and then we can soon reach the subtle energy system like the ki. Physicists now understand the Big Bang but we cannot explain, or we cannot find out, the initial state [ground state] of the Big Bang, where there is no causation, time is at zero or almost at zero. Why is the energy not divided into four? Because in science we know only particular forms of energy like electricity or gravity or something like that. We can measure these with our machines so we cannot measure the energy before this discrimination but we are now getting there. As to ki energy, if we have someone whose chakras are awakened, then with a specially designed probe we have been able to measure points on the subject's body with a high potential which I believe corresponds to the chakras and their level of activity.
My hypothesis is that the nuclei or electrons at this part of the body give off much energy and then the energy changes and discharges and comes out as the energy of the photon. To verify this hypothesis, we measure photons with a photon counter. If the chakra is awakened and the potential is high then we are able to detect many photons discharged from the body from the point corresponding to the awakened chakra. We can verify the existence of the chakras and psi [psychic] energy given concentration of the mind and an awakened chakra, because more photons discharge. If we concentrate the mind and there is not an awakened chakra then nothing happens. After three seconds or 10 seconds or 20 seconds, maybe only one photon is detected. That is usual but the awakened chakra gives a very unusual amount of photon discharge. Because we have concentrated at the point, this near-mental concentration of power, psychic power, gives the energy to the photon. That is how we can find this mechanism of the interaction between the mind and the body. That is a new science, or not a new science perhaps but a new medicine which is closer to other religions or philosophies. So now we are just approaching this door, to open it.
SI: Would you say then that science is approaching a new paradigm, a new methodology?
HM: Yes, although many people talk about the new paradigm, but they haven't got it, they are just speculating but actual research, like ours, embodies this new paradigm. So I think this is completely different and much more meaningful than just 'New Age' thought.
SI: Yes, perhaps what is needed to bring this new paradigm to the fore is a new type of clairvoyant scientist?
HM: Yes. "The new medical science will be outstandingly built upon the science of the centres, and upon their knowledge all diagnosis and possible cure will be based." Esoteric Healing, by Alice A. Bailey

That is the history of the AMI, which stands for Apparatus for measuring the functioning of the Meridians and their corresponding Internal organs.
SI: Have you built any other machines apart from the AMI?
HM: Yes. My other machine is the chakra machine which was developed two-to-three years after completing the AMI machine. By directing energy from the subtle energy centre of the chakra the surrounding electromagnetic environment can perhaps be changed. Also the lower body has a kind of static potential which disappears when energy is discharged from the body. So, in a completely dark room, insulated from physical energies from outside, a person with psychic ability can direct energy via their awakened chakra and produce light and we can detect this light and its direction. The instrument to detect this light and the changes in the electromagnetic field is called the chakra machine. This machine's first aim was to register light or psychokinetic power and to see if it could influence an electrical atmosphere, or whether a person can produce light or not.
SI: Can you yourself detect or see whether an illness has a karmic cause, is incurable, or whether it can be cured?
HM: That depends on one's understanding of the human being. I understand the human being to consist of three dimensions: a body, mind and spirit and each of them has individuality. If the problem or cause comes from the spiritual dimension it is generally caused by previous karma and cannot usually be cured by Western medicine. Disease at the mental level is caused by things that happen in a person's present life, producing unstable states of mind, and this can be cured by hypnosis or psychotherapy or psychological approaches. In that case the person only needs to understand the reason, the causes that create the problem in the mind. On the physical level, if the body has been affected by a germ, one only needs medication and often in a short time the person will be cured.
A karmic disease, or constitutional handicap caused by karma, is very difficult to cure, but if we always pray to God to help such people, then in many cases they can be cured within five or 10 years. The key point is that they should accept the previous life that relates to their disease. This is a first step in controlling the emotions and one can then observe oneself from the outside. That is the starting point. They pray to God and gradually they can control their emotions and the very egocentric persistence (attitude) of the person gradually disappears. They can then be intact and in a balanced state with other people; and they will be cured.
SI: There is a dichotomy between orthodox medicine and the new type of healing arts based on the meridians and chakras. Do you think your work has helped to bridge this gap, or is doing so?
HM: Yes, I think it has, because medicine is mostly concerned with mass, the material aspect. Matter is a kind of accumulation of energy in a fixed order. Chaos is energy but random, not in order. But when the energy is fixed, in order, in a certain frequency, etc, it becomes quantum, and this quantum is the origin of mass. So this quantum forms an electron or a proton or nucleus and thence an atom. The atoms combine and they make molecules and the molecules combine to make DNA and protein and then us: matter-with-consciousness. So any kind of mass is created by energy. This energy is now divided into four kinds: the weak nuclear, strong nuclear, the electromagnetic and gravitational. Before it was divided into these four, maybe the energy was one and this energy, I think, is the ki energy. (Both ki energy and physical energy are important in healing and this has been the focus of my work.)
SI: Ah, this is the ki, you think?
HM: Yes, but ki energy is still in the physical dimension even if it is the 'beginning of the physical dimension'. So it will be restricted by space and time, for example the T'ai Chi Chuan master we studied can only project his ki energy within a fixed distance. This ki energy is a mediator between the mental or psychic and the physical dimension.
So we are proceeding now from Western medicine, which deals with mass in the chemical form only to the medicine of energy. Then, beyond that, maybe we will reach the psychic and spiritual level.
SI: Your work, I would say, verifies the existence of the chakras and meridians. Do you have any scientific theory as to why the chakras and meridians are of their particular form or why they follow their particular paths?
HM: Before we make a theory we must find out the facts. So at my Research Institute we measured many subjects, maybe about 100,000 so far (over 20 years), and fortunately we have been able to investigate many psychics, martial arts masters and yogis as well as students of our own disciplines, yoga exercises and meditation, and so-on. We have been able to detect the chakras, and also I have some ability to see the chakras and whether they are awakened in a person or not. So firstly I would clearly see with my ESP ability [psychic ability] which chakra is awakened.
If the chakra is awakened we can see the very bright colours of the aura and also feel much energy from this awakened chakra. Then we measured subjects with the AMI machine and have been able to determine if particular chakras are awakened, for example those who have the manipura chakra awakened have highly energized spleen, liver, stomach meridians. After analysing much data obtained from many kinds of psychics or 'normal' people, I found, on the basis of this data and on the basis of my own super-natural understanding of such people, that we could connect the specific meridians with each chakra and link this with traditional theories about the chakras. For example, a person with an awakened manipura chakra can control the emotions, and also the functioning of the digestive system. We learnt much about each meridian and chakra from working with yogis and could link this with our AMI data.
SI: I know you have done some work on telepathy between individuals and have found how different kinds of telepathy affect the different chakras. Could you say something about that?
HM: Telepathy usually affects, in different ways, the different chakras. Mostly, telepathy in which companions are connected or related by their emotions or by the imagination is due to the manipura centre (solar plexus) receiving that telepathy. The person who has awakened the manipura is very sensitive, can be affected by other people very easily and finds it easy to receive information from 'outside'. They can easily be influenced by the power of the other person and information can easily come in. However if a person has awakened the ajna chakra [the energy centre between the eyebrows] the telepathy is very different. Then it is a very pure, intellectual telepathy and very clear, whereas the telepathy given through the manipura chakra is very much connected with the emotions and with a person's own imagination. Sometimes it can be mixed with unconscious thoughts. If either the manipura or the ajna centre is awakened, it is possible to both receive telepathy or send telepathic transmission at will to others. However in the case where the svadisthana chakra [the sacral centre] is awakened, all such people have some telepathic ability and can receive some information from others, but the ability is only spontaneous; they cannot control it at will and cannot send telepathic thoughts to others. So if people say they sometimes have intuition or telepathy but they cannot control it at will, that means their telepathy mostly belongs to the svadisthana chakra, and is very raw.
SI: Could you explain a little bit about what you mean by subjective and objective science?
HM: Objective science means we can understand or observe something from a common base with other people. Sometimes also objective means the science that is based on the sense perceptions. For example, I can see this cup: you can see it also, and this means we can say it is objective. But the subjective is always there. For example we both see this cup but perhaps you perceive it differently from me according to your subjective feeling and understanding which is different from mine. We can say the same thing about intuition or telepathy. Sometimes people say that intuition is very subjective, but I don't think so. If you have the same ability as I have, you can, for example, see the same kind of spiritual entity as I do, so sometimes during meditation with my disciples and students we receive the same kind of telepathic information. That means some activity common to all, doesn't it? So there are many meanings of objective and subjective.
SI: My understanding of quantum physics is that the observer can actually affect what is observed, that the two are linked. Doesn't this form a link between Western science and Eastern philosophies or religions?
HM: The quantum, for instance, as in the Heisenberg uncertainty principle, depends only on the instrument we use to observe things. For instance if we use a photon to observe elementary particles like electrons or neutrons, according to the type of measurement used we can measure the position of the particle but we don't know it's velocity. But if we observe the particle in a different way then we can know its velocity but not its position. So from this we can understand the uncertainty principle, but we still separate the object and the subject.
They say if we look in a different way we can see a different thing even though it is the same thing. In the case of psychokinetic energy, we send out some energy and an object can be created or changed. In quantum physics they are still separated, things are not affected by the mind. That's completely different, is it not? But now in order to bridge this kind of scientific view we are proceeding more and more in the subtle area, in the subtle dimension, and then we can soon reach the subtle energy system like the ki. Physicists now understand the Big Bang but we cannot explain, or we cannot find out, the initial state [ground state] of the Big Bang, where there is no causation, time is at zero or almost at zero. Why is the energy not divided into four? Because in science we know only particular forms of energy like electricity or gravity or something like that. We can measure these with our machines so we cannot measure the energy before this discrimination but we are now getting there. As to ki energy, if we have someone whose chakras are awakened, then with a specially designed probe we have been able to measure points on the subject's body with a high potential which I believe corresponds to the chakras and their level of activity.
My hypothesis is that the nuclei or electrons at this part of the body give off much energy and then the energy changes and discharges and comes out as the energy of the photon. To verify this hypothesis, we measure photons with a photon counter. If the chakra is awakened and the potential is high then we are able to detect many photons discharged from the body from the point corresponding to the awakened chakra. We can verify the existence of the chakras and psi [psychic] energy given concentration of the mind and an awakened chakra, because more photons discharge. If we concentrate the mind and there is not an awakened chakra then nothing happens. After three seconds or 10 seconds or 20 seconds, maybe only one photon is detected. That is usual but the awakened chakra gives a very unusual amount of photon discharge. Because we have concentrated at the point, this near-mental concentration of power, psychic power, gives the energy to the photon. That is how we can find this mechanism of the interaction between the mind and the body. That is a new science, or not a new science perhaps but a new medicine which is closer to other religions or philosophies. So now we are just approaching this door, to open it.
SI: Would you say then that science is approaching a new paradigm, a new methodology?
HM: Yes, although many people talk about the new paradigm, but they haven't got it, they are just speculating but actual research, like ours, embodies this new paradigm. So I think this is completely different and much more meaningful than just 'New Age' thought.
SI: Yes, perhaps what is needed to bring this new paradigm to the fore is a new type of clairvoyant scientist?
HM: Yes. "The new medical science will be outstandingly built upon the science of the centres, and upon their knowledge all diagnosis and possible cure will be based." Esoteric Healing, by Alice A. Bailey
