Altering the Acid/Alkaline Balance of Water via the Use of an Intention-Host Device
Abstract
Abstract Background: The research presented in this article has satisfactorily followed the earlier protocols of the last 2 authors and has successfully replicated their earlier work, which utilized an intention-host device to increase the pH of highly purified water in equilibrium with air by approximately +1 pH units at room temperature with no intentional chemical additions. Methods: In addition, the present experimental research, by the first 2 authors, breaks important new ground by revealing examples of both (1) different time-dependent pH-profiles than found in the earlier work and (2) a very nontraditional order of chemical-like reaction kinetics than has heretofore been observed. Conclusions: The time-dependence behavior of these reaction sequences support the hypothesis that such intention-host devices can produce a significant measure of coupling between two uniquely different, and normally noninteracting, levels of physical reality that exhibit a reciprocal-type of substance behavior.
... The sensitivity of pH to intention has been reported by other authors [46][47][48][49][50][51]. Among them is William A. Tiller, who has devoted much of his research to this subject, suggesting science-based models in which matter, energy, and aspects of consciousness could be involved and may be able to induce physical effects. ...
... Tiller and his colleagues claim that the fundamental symmetry state of a space can be changed by activating the indwellingconsciousness of that space to a higher level of physical reality. This alters the electromagnetic gauge symmetry state that, in turn, allows human intention to change the properties of materials significantly [46][47][48][49][50][51][52]. ...
... Indeed, what we report here as a conditioning of a pH-measurement system due to changes on the probe internal electrolyte is supported by the results of other researchers, which have shown that various properties of water may be influenced by intention, such as the cooling rate, the molecular bonding as reflected by infrared spectra alterations, Raman spectroscopy, scattered laser light, and the pH level [34,35,37,43,46,47,[54][55][56][57][58]. Actually, from the 8th to September 11, 2015, all the measured variables were responsive to and coincident with the periods of focused intention. ...
Background
The biofield is a controversial concept among the scientific community. Some aspects of this phenomenon relate to measurable factors of mainstream science such as electromagnetics, while others, involving nonlocal interventions, intention, and consciousness, seem to produce physical changes through mechanisms that are still unknown, making the outcomes of many studies not fully explained by our current state of scientific understanding. This study explored the hypothetical effects of intention on the conditioning of a pH system with continuous data acquisition for real-time measurements. As a follow-up study, those effects were related to changes in the physicochemical properties of water samples chosen as a target in a previous large-scale intervention of focused intention.
Methods
The intention experiments were conducted under controlled conditions from the 8th to September 11, 2015. During this period, 286 qualified biofield therapy practitioners meditated at a distance with the intention of changing the vibrational state of the water molecules contained in specific flasks. Several variables were evaluated, including the magnetic field and ultraviolet-visible (UV-VIS) radiation from 175 to 954 nm near the experimental spot, as well as Raman spectra, pH, and electrical conductivity of all the water samples. After this period, real-time pH measurements of water samples were taken with the same equipment and under the same experimental conditions, except for the practitioners’ awareness of those experiments, and without their focused intention. Real-time pH, electrical conductivity and the concentration of cations and anions measured by ion chromatography in the water samples were used to test the proposed hypothesis.
Results
Real-time pH was responsive during the intention experiments and after this period. Further continuous measurements performed after the 11th September showed that the pH variations overtime kept a systematic and consistent tendency similar to the one observed during the experimental activities involving focused intention. After the replacement of the electrode internal electrolyte, this behavior was no longer verified, and the pH was stable as the initial tests to evaluate the equipment sensitivity.
Conclusions
After the experimental period involving focused intention, the pH system maintained a systematic and consistent behavior while measuring the pH of new water samples. An eventual intention-mediated conditioning of the pH measurement system occurred because of changes in the properties of the electrode internal electrolyte.
... The unstated assumption of conventional science in today's world is that no human qualities of consciousness, intention, emotion, or mind can directly influence properties of physical matter. The second author (WAT) and his colleagues chose to test this unstated assumption by carefully designing four target experiments [7][8][9][10]. A novel 2-stage procedure was chosen for each experiment. ...
... The target experiments were (1) to increase or (2) to decrease the pH of a standard water sample by one full pH-unit without adding any chemical components (the measurement accuracy was ±0.01 pH units); (3) to increase (approximately 30% at p < 0.001) the in vitro chemical activity of the liver enzyme alkaline phosphatase (ALP); (4) to increase the in vivo ratio of Adenosine-5 0 -triphosphate to Adenosine diphosphate (ATP/ADP) in the cells of fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster larvae so that they would have a significantly reduced (approximately 25% at p < 0.001) larval developmental time to the adult fly stage. All four target experiments were successful and the results were published [7][8][9][10]. Thus, human intention can have a robust influence on the physical properties of target materials or biological systems, contrary to the unstated assumption of conventional medical science. ...
... Replication of the DpH = +1.0 pH-unit experiment has been successfully conducted at 4 IHD host sites in the U.S. [10,11,17]. During the replication phase, a second remarkable phenomenon was observed. ...
It is generally accepted that a placebo in a standard, randomized, controlled trial (RCT), being an inert substance, cannot itself produce any effects. Yet, the magnitude of the placebo effect has increased remarkably in the last three decades. We propose that macroscopic information entanglement potentially explains a change in the placebo such that it no longer behaves as an isolated and inert element in a RCT. In modeling a theoretical perspective for the placebo effect, we will first show that human intention can change physical properties of target materials or biological systems. Second, we will explain how human intention appears to raise the gauge symmetry state of the experimental space from the normal electric, atom molecule level [U(1) gauge state] to a higher gauge symmetry level with magnetic wave information properties [SU(2) gauge state]. Under normal circumstances, these two separate gauge states do not interact with each other. Human intention is able to "condition" space so that the U(1) and SU(2) gauge states can interact or become "coupled". Intention effects are robust in the coupled space. Entanglement or connectivity of systems is seen by virtue of the SU(2) magnetic wave information component in coupled space. A medical trial has several "subsystems" including the doctors, subjects, treatment, and placebo. Although these subsystems in U(1) gauge state appear to be separate, they are entangled by the magnetic information wave component. Thus, the placebo becomes information entangled with the other subsystems in the overall experiment, including the treatment, and the end result is that the treatment and the placebo may behave in a very similar fashion.
... A composition sensor that we like to use is a pH-electrode. This sensor has a number of components but can, with proper use, yield an accurate value for the pH of an aqueous solution (Pajunen, Purnell, Dibble, & Tiller, 2009). For the pH application, Equation 1 yields pH M = pH U(1) + α′ eff pH m . ...
... However, some care must be taken in the experimental measurement of the pH of pure water. High-quality measurement equipment is very important (Pajunen, Purnell, Dibble, & Tiller, 2009). Also we use pH buffers for pHelectrode calibration purposes that have been designed for measuring the pH of very dilute solutions such as pure water. ...
Members of the Society for Scientifi c Exploration have expressed considerable concern regarding proper control measures in research of anomalies (subtle energy research, etc.). This is quite proper and deserves some comment from us since the topic applies so well to the work we are conducting in "conditioned spaces." Also, the need by researchers for good "anomaly detectors" is paramount and is intimately connected to the search for good controls. Both issues are addressed in this communication.
... Future studies might include the pertinent issue of technological dependency in both nursing practice and in patients' lives. The effect of mind and psychoenergetic technologies (Pajunen, Purnell, Tiller, & Dibble, 2009) on human and machine technologies and the importance and influence, perhaps even dependence on robots-for-nursing caring (Purnell, 2009), as well as the ethical dilemmas ensuing from such a practice provide critical avenues for nursing research. With the advent of three dimensional (3D) printers and the consequent development of inexpensive external prostheses and implantable devices, the experiences of persons with composite bioengineered parts, including artificial tissues, provide a backdrop of vital technological practice issues with which nurses must grapple while continuously maintaining a view of persons as wholes. ...
A cross-sectional descriptive study was done at surgical wards of Kenyatta National Hospital to compare nurses’ and patients’ perceptions on importance of nurse-caring behaviors. Data were collected from 182 adult patients and 127 nurses. The most important nurse-caring behaviors as ranked by patients were give me treatments and medications on time and help me with my care until am able to do it for myself. Nurses ranked treat the patient as an individual and know how to give injections as the 2 most important nurse-caring behaviors.

The aim of this study was to illuminate which topics 2 couples, ages younger than 65 years old, where 1 partner has suffered a stroke, choose to focus on when participating in nurse-led family health conversations. Six conversations were audiotaped, transcribed, and analyzed by qualitative content analysis. Three categories emerged illustrating that the couples choose to talk about how they were affected on a personal and family level and, moreover, the importance of support within and outside the family. The altered way of living involved distressed feelings, gratitude, and hopes. This study highlights the importance of nurses viewing the family as a unit.
... The water + 1-pH target experiments have been successfully replicated by other independent investigators in their own laboratories. 20 In many cases, the excess thermodynamic free energy of the experimental space was measured to more than double from its normally expected value of room temperature due to this type of space conditioning to a higher electromagnetic gauge symmetry state. 19,21 There have been many published reports on the effects of intention in the parapsychology literature. ...
A remarkable phenomenon is taking place around the globe, one that I have been fortunate enough to witness and in which to participate. The relics of the historical Buddha, also known as Siddhartha or Shakyamuni Buddha, still survive today over 2500 years since his enlightenment, and, for the first time in history, are traveling throughout the world. In common Buddhist practice, relics are highly venerated and treasured remains of realized Masters. It is very rare for relics to travel from city to city and be available for viewing by the general public. The Buddha relic tour is demonstrating that a direct experience of the spiritual state is not mysterious, nor is it for a select few. The spiritual state, here defined as a universal theme of unconditional love, is a component of human evolutionary unfoldment, a process through which thousands of human beings have passed, and through which thousands more will pass. We are "waking up" as a species. Consequently, more information is required about this transformation of human consciousness. The Buddha relics offer us a priceless means by which we can obtain a richer perspective about the nature of human consciousness, spiritual realities such as love, and ultimately understanding ourselves.
The main goal of this work was the assessment of measurable interactions induced by focused intention, frequently used in biofield practices such as Healing Touch and Reiki. Water, as the main component of the human body, was chosen as a model. Intention experiments were performed over 4 different days at a scheduled interval, during which 286 trained biofield practitioners from several countries were instructed to meditate with the intention to change the molecular vibrational state of water samples selected by a blinded operator. The experimental protocol was randomized, blinded, and controlled; the measured variables included Raman spectra and the pH and electrical conductance of the water, as well as the magnetic field and UV-VIS (ultraviolet-visible) radiation near the experimental spot. Although a direct causal relationship cannot be established, some measurements of the water samples, as well as the magnetic field and radiation near the experimental spot, were responsive during the experimental period.
Kurt Gödel has proposed, perhaps, the most basic and fundamental mathematical theorem that no formal system of sound mathematical rules of proof can ever suffice, even in principle, to establish the entire true propositions of ordinary arithmetic. In other words, all the sophisticated mathematics put together still cannot prove few simple truths. This impossibility is not only restricted to the current mathematical knowledge but also the hurdle would remain in forever, no matter how advanced our mathematics becomes or how much we improve our logical reasoning.
