事实:三名佛教僧侣将他们的目标集中在瓶装水上,目的是促进种子的生长。结果表明,他们能够产生重大影响。
反思:如果人类意念能够改变物质物质,想象一下人类的集体意图能够对整个人类经验产生什么样的影响。
A study published in the Journal EXPLORE,The Journal of Science and Healing conducted by scientists at National Kaohsiung Normal University,National Taiwan University,and the Institute of Noetic Sciences referenced a previous experiment which suggested that"consumption of intentionally treated tea influenced subjective mood under double-blind,controlled conditions."They decided to investigate further,under double-blind,controlled conditions.The new study used Arabidopsis thaliana seeds(a commonly used wild type of seed that belongs to the Brassica family,which includes cruciferous vegetables like cabbage,broccoli,cauliflower),and measured differences in hypocotyl length,anthocyanin,and chlorophyll between seeds hydrated with intentionally treated vs.untreated water.
发表在《探索》杂志、《科学与治疗》杂志上的一项研究由台湾国立高雄师范大学和思维科学研究所的科学家进行,他们引用了之前的一个实验,该实验表明,"在双盲、受控的条件下,有意饮用经过处理的茶会影响主观情绪。"他们决定在双盲、受控的条件下进行进一步调查。这项新的研究使用拟南芥种子(一种常用的属于芸苔属植物的野生种子,包括十字花科蔬菜,如卷心菜、花椰菜、花椰菜),测量了经过有意处理的水和未经处理的水中含水种子的下胚轴长度、花青素和叶绿素的差异。
The hypocotyl is the stem of a germinating seed,anthocyanin refers to specific cell biology properties of a plant,and chlorophyll deals with the biology of the green pigment found within plants.The study was designed as follows:
下胚轴是正在发芽的种子的茎,花青素是指植物特定的细胞生物学特性,而叶绿素是指植物体内发现的绿色色素的生物学特性。这项研究的设计如下:
Three Buddhist monks focused their intention on commercially bottled water with the goal of improving the growth of seeds;bottled water from the same source served as an untreated control.Seeds with the following three variations of cryptochrome(CRY)were used:the wild type Arabidopsis(Columbia-4),a gain-of-function mutation(His-CRY2),and a loss-of function mutation(cry1/2),where"gain"and"loss"refer to enhanced and reduced sensitivity to blue light,respectively.Seeds were hydrated with treated or untreated water under blinded conditions,and then placed in random positions in an incubator.The germination process was repeated three times in each experiment,each time using new seeds,and then the entire experiment was repeated four times.
三名佛教僧侣将他们的目标集中在瓶装水上,以改善种子的生长;来自同一来源的瓶装水作为未经处理的控制。采用3个隐花色素(cry1/2)变异的种子:野生型拟南芥(Columbia-4)、功能获得突变(His-CRY2)和功能缺失突变(cry1/2),其中"获得"和"损失"分别指对蓝光敏感性的增强和减弱。将种子在盲性条件下用处理过或未处理过的水进行水化处理,然后随机放置在培养箱中。在每个实验中重复发芽过程三次,每次使用新的种子,然后整个实验重复四次。
The results of the Taiwan study showed a significant decrease in hypocotyl length,a significant increase in anthocyanin(treated mean 17.0±0.31 mg,untreated mean,and a"modest"increase in chlorophyll.To see the actual numbers,and more details about the study,you can refer directly to the study.
台湾研究结果表明,下胚轴长度显著减少,花青素显著增加(处理平均17.00.31 mg,未处理,叶绿素"适度"增加。要查看实际的数字,以及更多关于这项研究的细节,你可以直接参考这项研究。
According to the authors:
作者认为:
These outcomes conformed to the monks'intentions because a decrease in hypocotyl length and increase in anthocyanin and chlorophyll are associated with enhanced photomorphogenic growth.These experiments suggest that the His-CRY2 mutation of Arabidopsis may be an especially robust"detector"of intention.
这些结果符合修道士的意图,因为下胚轴长度的减少和花青素和叶绿素的增加与光形态生长的增强有关。这些实验表明,拟南芥的 His-CRY2突变可能是一个特别强大的意向性"检测器"。
This suggests that the monks were able to change the structure of water.
这表明僧侣们能够改变水的结构。
There were a couple of concerns and biases but they didn't hold much weight according to the authors.One of them that the chemical composition of the water was not tested prior to the experiment,so that could have somehow influenced the results instead of the monks.Again,you can refer to the study for more information like that.
虽然存在一些担忧和偏见,但作者认为它们并没有多大分量。他们中的一个人说,在实验之前没有对化学成份进行测试,所以这可能在某种程度上影响了实验结果,而不是僧侣。同样,你可以参考这项研究获得更多类似的信息。
Experiments over the past four decades have investigated whether human intention alone can affect the properties of water.This question has been of interest to alternative medicine research,because the human body is made up of approximately 70%water.Interest in this topic has been rekindled by multiple researchers suggesting that intentionally influenced water can be detected by examining ice crystals formed from samples of that water.Scientists have hypothesized and shown that water influenced by intention can indeed influence the physical formation of the ice crystals that water produces.Consistent results commonly point to the idea that positive intentions tend to produce symmetric,well-formed,aesthetically pleasing crystals,and negative intentions tend to produce asymmetric,poorly formed,and unattractive crystals.
过去四十年的实验研究了人类的意图是否能单独影响水的性质。这个问题已经引起了替代医学研究的兴趣,因为人体大约70%是由水组成的。多位研究人员重新点燃了人们对这一课题的兴趣,他们提出,通过检测水样中形成的冰晶,可以发现水是受到人为影响的。科学家们假设并证明,受意图影响的水确实可以影响水产生的冰晶的物理形成。一致的结果通常指向这样的观点,即积极的意图倾向于产生对称的、形状良好的、美观的晶体,而消极的意图倾向于产生不对称的、形状不良的、不吸引人的晶体。
Dean Radin,the Chief Scientist at the Institute of Noetic Sciences(one of the authors in the study above)along with Masaru Emoto,Takashige Kizu,and Nancy Lund,designed an experiment that tested this hypothesis.
思维科学研究所的首席科学家 Dean Radin 和 Masaru Emoto,Takashige Kizu,Nancy Lund 设计了一个实验来验证这个假设。
As the study's description reads:
这项研究的描述如下:
any focused their intentions towards water samples located inside an electromagnetically shielded room in California.Water samples located near the target water,but unknown to the people providing intentions,acted as''proximal''controls.Other samples located outside the shielded room acted as distant controls.Ice drops formed from samples of water in the different treatment conditions were photographed by a technician,each image was assessed for aesthetic beauty by over 2,500 independent judges,and the resulting data were analyzed,all by individuals blind with respect to the underlying treatment conditions.Results suggested that crystal images in the intentionally treated condition were rated as aesthetically more beautiful than proximal control crystals(p<0.03,one-tailed).This outcome replicates the results of an earlier pilot test.
在三天的时间里,奥地利和德国的1900人将他们的意图集中在加利福尼亚一个电磁屏蔽室内的水样上。水样本位于目标水域附近,但提供意图的人不知道,充当"近端"控制。位于屏蔽室之外的其他样本充当远程控制器。不同处理条件下水样中形成的冰滴由技术人员拍摄,每张图片由2500多名独立评委进行审美评价,并对结果数据进行分析,所有这些数据都由盲人根据基本处理条件进行分析。结果表明,在有意处理的条件下,晶体图像被评为美观上比近端控制晶体更美丽(p0.03,单尾)。这个结果复制了早期的试验测试结果。

Obviously,it's important to remember that this type of research does cause a lot of controversy.
显然,记住这种类型的研究确实引起了很多争议是很重要的。
"There seems to be a deep concern that the whole field will be tarnished by studying a phenomenon that is tainted by its association with superstition,spiritualism and magic.Protecting against this possibility sometimes seems more important than encouraging scientific exploration or protecting academic freedom.But this may be changing."
–Cassandra Vieten,PhD and President/CEO at the Institute of Noetic Sciences (source)
"人们似乎非常担心,通过研究一种与迷信、唯心论和魔法有关的现象,整个领域将受到玷污。防止这种可能性有时似乎比鼓励科学探索或保护学术自由更重要。但这种情况可能正在改变。"-Cassandra Vieten,思维科学研究所博士兼总裁/首席执行官
More Examples of Mind/Matter Influence
更多心灵/物质影响的例子
Stories of mind influencing matter have been written about for thousands of years.Nearly all ancient literature from all parts of the world have stories of such phenomena,whether it's ancient Vedic tests or the yoga sutras,all the way to Moses,Jesus,Mohammed,and Milarepa or the Oracle at Delphi,stories of'superhuman'ability have always been alive and well.The Buddha,for example,was believed to possess all manner of supernormal powers and ability.Were these just myths?Or are any of these stories actually true?Why would literature that dates back thousands of years exist describing these abilities in great detail,in multiple parts of the world,if it wasn't true?
关于精神影响物质的故事已经写了几千年了。几乎所有来自世界各地的古代文献都有关于这种现象的故事,不管是古吠陀测验还是瑜伽经典,一直到摩西、耶稣、穆罕默德和米拉热巴,还是特尔斐的神谕,关于超人能力的故事一直存在而且很好。例如,人们相信佛陀拥有各种超常的力量和能力。这些仅仅是神话吗?或者这些故事中有真实的吗?如果不是这样的话,那么为什么可以追溯到几千年前的文学作品会在世界各地详细描述这些能力呢?
There are many'paranormal'abilities that are said to be real,or at least what seem to be'paranormal.'Perhaps they are simply just'normal.'The scientific study of phenomena like telepathy,clairvoyance,remote viewing,which are a few of many that lie under the umbrella of parapsychology,have all yielded statistically significant results.Remote viewing,the ability to describe a remote geographical location regardless of ones location,,for example,was an extremely successful program that worked multiple times for intelligence purposes.That alone is a very fascinating topic.
有很多超自然的能力据说是真实的,或者至少看起来是超自然的
也许他们只是"普通人"对心灵感应、千里眼、遥视等现象的科学研究,只是超心理学保护伞下众多现象中的一小部分,都产生了统计学意义重大的结果。远程观测----描述一个遥远的地理位置的能力,而不管其位置----例如,是一个非常成功的程序,为了情报目的,它可以工作多次。这本身就是一个非常吸引人的话题。
According Dr.Jessica Utts,the Chair of the Department of Statistics at the University of California,Irvine,when it comes to scientific studies in these realms.
根据加州大学欧文分校统计系主任杰西卡·乌茨博士的说法,在这些领域的科学研究中。
"What convinced me was just the evidence,the accumulating evidence as I worked in this field and I got to see more and more of the evidence.I visited the laboratories,even beyond where I was working to see what they were doing and I could see that they had really tight controls…and so I got convinced by the good science that I saw being done.And in fact I will say as a statistician I've consulted in a lot of different areas of science;the methodology and the controls on these experiments are much tighter than any other area of of science where I've worked."(source)
"让我信服的只是证据,我在这个领域工作时积累的证据,我看到了越来越多的证据。我参观了实验室,甚至在我工作的地方以外,我看到他们在做什么,我可以看到他们有非常严格的控制...所以我被我看到的良好的科学所说服。事实上,作为一个统计学家,我咨询过很多不同的科学领域,这些实验的方法和控制比我工作过的任何其他科学领域都要严格得多。"(来源)
More Evidence of Mind Influencing Matter
心灵影响物质的更多证据
Can mind influence matter?Today,there are examples from looking at matter at the quantum scale,and there are also real life examples at the classical scale of mind-matter interaction.For example,the quantum double slit experiment is a very popular experiment used to examine how consciousness and our physical material world are intertwined.A study published in the journal Physics Essays is one of many that explains how factors associated with consciousness"significantly"correlated in predicted ways with perturbations in the double slit interference pattern.
思想能影响物质吗?今天,在量子尺度上看物质的例子不胜枚举,在经典尺度上的精神-物质相互作用中也有现实生活中的例子。例如,量子双缝实验是一个非常流行的实验,用来检验意识和我们的物质世界是如何交织在一起的。发表在《物理学论文》杂志上的一项研究是众多解释与意识相关的因素如何在预测的方式中与双缝干涉图案中的扰动"显著"相关的研究之一。
In this experiment,tiny bits of matter(photons,electrons,or any atomic-sized object)are shot towards a screen that has two slits in it.On the other side of the screen,a high tech video camera records where each photon lands.In this experiment,a simple"observer""not only disrupts what has to be measured,they produce it.We compel the electron to assume a definite position.We ourselves produce the result of the measurement."The experiment how consciousness,or an"observer"actually influences what the electrons and photos do,and what action they take.
在这个实验中,微小的物质比特(光子、电子或任何原子大小的物体)被射向一个有两个缝隙的屏幕。在屏幕的另一边,一个高科技的摄像机记录着每个光子落地的位置。在这个实验中,一个简单的"观察者"不仅扰乱了需要测量的东西,而且还产生了它。我们迫使电子承担一个确定的位置。我们自己产生测量结果。"意识或"观察者"实际上是如何影响电子和照片的行为以及它们采取的行动的实验。
As far as supposed real world examples,there are many.One of my favourite examples comes from a document archived within the CIA's electronic reading room.It examines experiments conducted by high level Chinese scientists examining people with exceptional abilities and their ability to move objects without touching them.The document is entitled "Research Into Paranormal Ability To Break Through Spatial Barriers." I've cited it in many of my articles before.
至于所谓的现实世界的例子,有很多。我最喜欢的一个例子来自中央情报局电子阅览室存档的一份文件。它检验了由中国高层科学家进行的实验,这些实验研究了具有超常能力的人以及他们不用触碰物体就能移动物体的能力。这份文件的标题是"超自然能力突破空间障碍的研究"我以前在许多文章中引用过它。
The document reviews experiments by the Aerospace Medicine Engineering Institute in Beijing,which the CIA believed was"probably military operated."It was reported in the July 1990 issue of the Chinese Journal of Somatic Science(Kongzhi et al.,1990;Jinggen et al.,1990;Banghui,1990),and was translated into English by the DIA(Defense Intelligence Agency).
这份文件回顾了位于北京的航空航天医学工程研究所的实验,中央情报局认为这些实验"很可能是军事行动"该研究发表在1990年7月的《中国体细胞科学杂志》上(孔志等人,1990年;京根等人,1990年;Banghui,1990年),并由国防情报局翻译成英文。
The document highlights experiments involving the videotaping and high-speed photography of the transfer of test specimens(nuts,bundles of matches,pills,nails,thread,photosensitive paper,chemically treated paper,sponges dipped in FeCl3,etc.)through the walls of sealed paper envelopes,double layered KCNS-type paper bags,sealed glass bottles and tubes with sealed caps,and sealed plastic film canisters without the walls of any of these containers being breached.All of the Chinese experiments reported using gifted children and young adults,who possessed well-known extraordinary PK(psychokinetic)ability that allowed them to teleport the various test specimens.
这份文件着重介绍了通过密封纸信封、双层 KCNS-type 纸袋、密封玻璃瓶和带密封盖的管子以及密封塑料薄膜容器的罐壁转移试样(坚果、成捆火柴、药丸、钉子、线、感光纸、经化学处理的纸张、浸泡在 FeCl3中的海绵等)的录像和高速摄影实验。所有的中国实验都报道了使用天才儿童和年轻成年人,他们拥有众所周知的非凡的心灵运动能力,使他们能够传送各种测试标本。
These particular experiments are mentioned many times in various publications.For example,a study titled "Teleportation Physics Study" by Dr.Eric W.Davis,the Adjunct Professor in the Early Universe,Cosmology and Strings Group at the Center for Astrophysics,Space Physics&Engineering Research at Baylor University,the Chief Science Officer of EarthTech Int'l,Inc.and the Institute for Advanced Studies at Austin in Austin,Texas;who is also the Owner/Chief Executive/Chief Scientist of Warp Drive Metrics which does consulting and contracting for the Department of Defense,mentions these experiments as well.
这些特殊的实验在各种出版物中被多次提及。例如,贝勒大学天体物理学、空间物理学和工程研究中心的早期宇宙兼职教授 Eric w.Davis 博士,EarthTech Int'l 公司和德克萨斯州奥斯汀的高级研究所的首席科学官,同时也是 Warp Drive Metrics 公司的所有者/首席执行官/首席科学家,为国防部提供咨询和承包服务,他的一项题为《远距离传输物理学研究》的研究也提到了这些实验。
A study published in the American Journal of Chinese Medicine demonstrated that a woman with special abilities was able to significantly accelerate the germination of specific seeds for the purposes of developing a more robust seed stock.You can read more about that and access the study here.There are also declassified documents that show human beings with these abilities.There are examples from every country,and it's not just from modern day.Ancient lore from many cultures spoke of people with these same kind of'mystical powers.'
发表在《美国中医学杂志》上的一项研究表明,一个具有特殊能力的女性能够显著加速特定种子的萌发,从而培育出更强壮的种子库。你可以在这里阅读更多关于这方面的内容,也可以访问这项研究。还有一些解密的文件显示人类具有这些能力。每个国家都有这样的例子,而且不仅仅是现代。来自许多文化的古代传说都说人们拥有同样的"神秘力量"
During a visit to remote monasteries in the 1980s,Harvard Professor of Medicine Herbert Benson and his team of researchers studied monks living in the Himalayan Mountains who could,by g Tum-mo(a yoga technique),raise the temperatures of their fingers and toes by as much as 17 degrees.It is still unknown how the monks are able to generate such heat.(source)(You can read more about this here).
20世纪80年代,哈佛大学医学教授赫伯特·本森(Herbert Benson)和他的研究小组访问了一些偏远的修道院,他们研究了生活在喜马拉雅山脉的僧侣。这些僧侣通过一种瑜伽技巧,可以将他们的手指和脚趾的温度提高多达17度。目前尚不清楚僧侣们是如何产生这种热量的。(来源)(你可以在这里了解更多)。
If human intention can impact physical material matter,imagine the impact our thoughts,feeling and emotions can have on the human experience and our physical material reality.Imagine how important the concept of consciousness is when it comes to solving our problems,and making the Earth a place of abundance and peace for all life that resides here.Imagine the potential we have,and what we are capable of,what what type of human experience we could all create,together,if these concepts were at the forefront of what it will take to change the world.
如果人类的意念可以影响物质的物质,想象一下我们的思想、感觉和情感可以对人类的经验和我们的物质现实产生的影响。想象一下,当涉及到解决我们的问题,使地球成为居住在这里的所有生命的富足与和平的地方时,意识的概念是多么重要。想象一下我们拥有的潜力,我们能做什么,我们能一起创造什么样的人类经验,如果这些概念是改变世界的前沿。
