Once Again Science Proves…
Once again, science proves the power of healing! Dr. William Collins, a leading researcher and a practicing neurosurgeon at St. Louis requested to study Swamiji’s brain and patient’s brain during healing. Swamiji readily agreed to his request. Dr. Collins was amazed at the results he recorded! Read on for an initial report of his observations.
Swamiji met with Dr. Collins on April 14th, at his office in Washington University, St. Louis, where Dr. Collins wanted to measure and analyze Swami’s and patient’s brain during healing. The patient was David Collins, son of Dr. Collins, who was injured in a car accident 10 years ago. The accident affected the motor nerves and David is now disabled. He cannot walk, talk, move his hands or control most his body much. He communicates with his eyes mostly.
There were 4 main states in which brain readings of Swami and David were recorded and compared: (a) just sitting normally, (b) Swami meditating, (c) Swami healing David and (d) Swami radiating healing energy, without directing it specifically towards David. The key observations of Dr. Collins in each of these phases is summarized below.
Just sitting normally:
When Swami was just sitting and his brain waves were recorded, Dr. Collins observed the following:
• Swami’s brain was unusually quiet (especially the right side of his brain).
• Brain metabolism was 1/20th of normal people – this is significantly less that what he has seen even in very calm persons.
o This implies there is an enormous conservation of energy. o Oxygen and other chemicals consumed by the brain to process information is greatly conserved.
• The activity was a minimum, only the energy required to run vital body functions were being consumed.
• The readings of brain activity and metabolism were at such low levels that Dr. Collins changed electrodes to more sensitive ones and even adjusted the them a few times to make sure he was getting the readings. Despite the adjustments the readings still showed unusually low levels!
• Left and right side of his brain were working simultaneously.
• Strength of Alpha waves, which is generally high for people who are stressed, was significantly lower than normal.
Dr. Collins couldn’t believe that Swami was in his normal state with this activity level in the brain… he remarked “there is no such thing as normal state for you!” And Swami replied that he was right, because even during normal state Swami is really in samadhi.
Meditating:
While Swami was meditating: • Higher frequency brain waves increased… this was found only in people who had meditated for 20 yrs, etc. • Lower frequency waves decreased in strength. This was the reverse of what is normally observed in average persons, where lower frequency waves become more prominent during meditation.
o The reason for this unusual reading is, as Swami pointed out, that when average persons meditate they concentrate, but Swami enters into awareness.
Healing:
While healing David, from Swami’s readings Dr. Collins noted: • Swami’s brain readings were dramatically different. • Right side of his brain became much more active. The difference between the right side and the left side was dramatic!
o Right hemisphere does global thinking and rapid processing.
o Whatever takes the left brain several minutes to process, the right brain will process in half a sec (i.e. the right is 100s of time
faster than left brain)!
o Swami’s right brain was much more active compared to the left.
o Right brain is also in the timeless zone (no concept of time).
• The strength of the waves implied a tremendous level of metabolic activity… o Dr. Collins stated “If I had done this, I’d be fatigued and sleeping by the time its over!” o But of course, Swami felt refreshed after healing, and this was unbelievable for the doctor.
At this same time, from David’s brain readings, these observations were made: • Certain high frequencies that we don’t normally produce, were being produced by his brain.
o Those high frequencies are generally produced when we integrate information, or an epiphany happens.
o If and when they are produced, they occur for a very short duration (about one second) and are easy to miss.
• In David’s brain, not only were these waves being produced, but they were maintained during the entire healing period! • Dr. Collins commented “The world is not going to believe this! This is extremely unusual….its seems as if his brain was changing and 100s of 1000s of neurons/nerves in the brain was being re-wired!” • The sustained levels of high frequency waves also meant a very high metabolism of the brain.
o Dr. Collins described it as equivalent to running at your fastest speed for 20 minutes
o Based on that, he concluded that David will be exhausted after the healing.
o On the contrary David didn’t feel tired, and instead he was refreshed and he wanted to walk!
Radiating healing energy:
In this phase, Swami created the same healing energy, but instead of directing to one person, he just radiated it. The doctor once again recorded the brain activity in Swami and David, and found that:
o The high freq waves continued to occur in David’s brain (i.e. re-wiring of the brain continued to occur). o There was still a significant difference in the strength of the high frequency waves in David’s brain. o Both sides of David’s brain became like the right brain of Swami. o Swami’s brain activity was quite similar to the levels during one-to-one healing.
Swami says – in normal state, myself, the person getting healed and the cosmic energy are all different, but during healing all 3 get connected. That could be the reason why David’s brain behaved like Swami’s brain.
Following are some pictures taken during the test.
