1 00:00:00,600 --> 00:00:09,959 [Music] 2 00:00:14,109 --> 00:00:12,310 let me introduce myself I'm Vernon 3 00:00:16,150 --> 00:00:14,119 Nicholas I'm the research director at 4 00:00:18,010 --> 00:00:16,160 equilibrium energy and education in 5 00:00:19,600 --> 00:00:18,020 Chicago Illinois and we are a 6 00:00:21,670 --> 00:00:19,610 research-based Wellness Center that's 7 00:00:23,740 --> 00:00:21,680 dedicated to the study and practical 8 00:00:26,169 --> 00:00:23,750 application of energy based therapies 9 00:00:28,089 --> 00:00:26,179 I'm actually joined here by my 10 00:00:29,800 --> 00:00:28,099 collaborator in this research Bernadette 11 00:00:32,049 --> 00:00:29,810 Duran who's in the audience with me and 12 00:00:34,570 --> 00:00:32,059 she's also the founder and director of 13 00:00:36,520 --> 00:00:34,580 equilibrium in Chicago and we're here 14 00:00:38,320 --> 00:00:36,530 today to give you some of the results 15 00:00:40,360 --> 00:00:38,330 and findings of our research regarding 16 00:00:42,399 --> 00:00:40,370 some more about the energetic 17 00:00:44,590 --> 00:00:42,409 underpinnings about what happens when 18 00:00:45,850 --> 00:00:44,600 the Bankston method occurs and just 19 00:00:47,710 --> 00:00:45,860 gives you a more systematic 20 00:00:50,109 --> 00:00:47,720 understanding into the nature of healing 21 00:00:54,189 --> 00:00:50,119 and specifically what happens when we do 22 00:01:06,230 --> 00:00:54,199 build image cycling and before we dig 23 00:01:06,240 --> 00:01:18,590 okay 24 00:01:18,600 --> 00:01:24,490 can I just use 25 00:01:24,500 --> 00:01:28,999 no no no I thought the 26 00:01:29,009 --> 00:01:33,530 absolutely 27 00:01:42,740 --> 00:01:38,420 great Thank You Todd okay great right 28 00:01:44,840 --> 00:01:42,750 okay well before we begin I wanted to 29 00:01:48,110 --> 00:01:44,850 thank a couple folks first I wanted to 30 00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:48,120 thank bill for introducing us to sse and 31 00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:50,130 for inviting us to speak with you about 32 00:01:54,350 --> 00:01:52,650 our method but also one of the thing 33 00:01:56,660 --> 00:01:54,360 britta'd that Duran who is a founder and 34 00:01:58,460 --> 00:01:56,670 owner of equilibrium and she's one of 35 00:02:00,350 --> 00:01:58,470 the most talented visionaries and 36 00:02:02,240 --> 00:02:00,360 healers that I've ever met and having 37 00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:02,250 seen all the positive transformations 38 00:02:07,490 --> 00:02:04,050 that she's made and other people's lives 39 00:02:09,560 --> 00:02:07,500 have really inspired me to try and 40 00:02:12,380 --> 00:02:09,570 understand how energy healing works in a 41 00:02:16,610 --> 00:02:12,390 more systematic and defined way and I 42 00:02:19,340 --> 00:02:16,620 wanted to everyone is familiar with 43 00:02:23,230 --> 00:02:19,350 Bill's research many of us are familiar 44 00:02:26,240 --> 00:02:23,240 with Bill's research about his focus on 45 00:02:28,250 --> 00:02:26,250 saving the rodents from certain death 46 00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:28,260 from mammary cancer and as you can see 47 00:02:32,780 --> 00:02:30,810 there on the left is an example of a 48 00:02:34,699 --> 00:02:32,790 mouse that he's injected with cancer and 49 00:02:37,100 --> 00:02:34,709 what happened on the right of what 50 00:02:40,550 --> 00:02:37,110 happens to the mouse after they go 51 00:02:42,560 --> 00:02:40,560 through the banks and treatment and the 52 00:02:44,900 --> 00:02:42,570 way the Benson treatment occurs it's 53 00:02:47,180 --> 00:02:44,910 initiated by a process called image 54 00:02:49,520 --> 00:02:47,190 cycling and image cycling is just the 55 00:02:53,150 --> 00:02:49,530 subjective means of initiating the flow 56 00:02:55,610 --> 00:02:53,160 of energy from the therapist to the per 57 00:02:57,620 --> 00:02:55,620 individual or the mouse getting the 58 00:02:59,960 --> 00:02:57,630 healing and a lot of the questions over 59 00:03:03,229 --> 00:02:59,970 the years have arisen what is exactly 60 00:03:05,030 --> 00:03:03,239 happening when we go through the Benson 61 00:03:08,750 --> 00:03:05,040 method and image cycling what are the 62 00:03:10,520 --> 00:03:08,760 energetic underpinnings and that's part 63 00:03:13,009 --> 00:03:10,530 of the reason why last year bill decided 64 00:03:15,500 --> 00:03:13,019 to do a double-blind experiment where he 65 00:03:17,479 --> 00:03:15,510 actually laid in an MRI machine and held 66 00:03:20,930 --> 00:03:17,489 a series of envelopes some of that 67 00:03:23,420 --> 00:03:20,940 envelopes actually had it's a blank 68 00:03:25,970 --> 00:03:23,430 index card it had nothing in it and what 69 00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:25,980 some other envelopes actually had a hair 70 00:03:32,240 --> 00:03:29,010 sample from an animal with cancer so the 71 00:03:34,220 --> 00:03:32,250 question was when he held the envelope 72 00:03:36,410 --> 00:03:34,230 with the sample at a hair sample with 73 00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:36,420 cancer did the brain respond 74 00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:38,850 autonomically to stimulus that's in need 75 00:03:43,610 --> 00:03:41,010 of healing and if you see no response 76 00:03:45,970 --> 00:03:43,620 you'll really see no reaction for the 77 00:03:47,920 --> 00:03:45,980 brain in the fMRI scans and then 78 00:03:49,330 --> 00:03:47,930 the picture above there represents the 79 00:03:54,760 --> 00:03:49,340 controller on what you would typically 80 00:03:56,860 --> 00:03:54,770 see but when he bill held envelopes he 81 00:03:59,020 --> 00:03:56,870 realized that although he himself was 82 00:04:01,240 --> 00:03:59,030 not able to subjectively tell what 83 00:04:03,880 --> 00:04:01,250 contained the hair sample versus what 84 00:04:06,130 --> 00:04:03,890 contained a blank index card the brain 85 00:04:09,750 --> 00:04:06,140 certainly knew what was in each envelope 86 00:04:13,840 --> 00:04:09,760 where you see an active frontal lobe a 87 00:04:16,690 --> 00:04:13,850 energy sent activation when he held the 88 00:04:18,550 --> 00:04:16,700 envelope with the hair sample and it 89 00:04:22,330 --> 00:04:18,560 turned off when he held the blank index 90 00:04:25,180 --> 00:04:22,340 card so what did all this suggest and it 91 00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:25,190 suggested and it reinforced the notion 92 00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:26,810 that you don't really need an active 93 00:04:31,420 --> 00:04:29,210 belief or intention to heal to produce 94 00:04:34,840 --> 00:04:31,430 or trigger some response from the brain 95 00:04:36,730 --> 00:04:34,850 now this isn't necessarily saying that a 96 00:04:38,530 --> 00:04:36,740 healing response is occurring when the 97 00:04:41,440 --> 00:04:38,540 brain fires when the interior lobes 98 00:04:43,450 --> 00:04:41,450 start to fire but what this does suggest 99 00:04:46,150 --> 00:04:43,460 is that the brain has an autonomic 100 00:04:48,010 --> 00:04:46,160 response and there are other aspects 101 00:04:49,630 --> 00:04:48,020 that are going on that are working on 102 00:04:53,260 --> 00:04:49,640 the subconscious level that we don't 103 00:04:55,780 --> 00:04:53,270 necessarily have control over and we've 104 00:04:59,710 --> 00:04:55,790 seen a lot of research focused on aegs 105 00:05:02,080 --> 00:04:59,720 MRIs but what other ways have we looked 106 00:05:03,790 --> 00:05:02,090 at that helped us determine give us a 107 00:05:05,980 --> 00:05:03,800 more systematic understanding of the 108 00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:05,990 nature of energy healing what other ways 109 00:05:11,020 --> 00:05:08,690 can we measure an autonomic response and 110 00:05:12,870 --> 00:05:11,030 one of those ways is through a 111 00:05:15,250 --> 00:05:12,880 technology called gas discharge 112 00:05:17,770 --> 00:05:15,260 visualization and guess discharge 113 00:05:20,530 --> 00:05:17,780 visualization which I'll refer to as gdv 114 00:05:23,980 --> 00:05:20,540 was developed by dr. Constantine karakov 115 00:05:26,740 --> 00:05:23,990 back in 1995 he's a Russian biophysicist 116 00:05:30,490 --> 00:05:26,750 professor and that's it's all about 117 00:05:32,410 --> 00:05:30,500 getting that the glow or about quantum 118 00:05:35,710 --> 00:05:32,420 light emissions of each of the fingers 119 00:05:38,020 --> 00:05:35,720 so what happened we have folks put their 120 00:05:40,450 --> 00:05:38,030 fingers on an electrode and we send 121 00:05:42,460 --> 00:05:40,460 lesson1 milligauss of energy to excite 122 00:05:45,490 --> 00:05:42,470 the bio photons around each of the 123 00:05:47,320 --> 00:05:45,500 fingers and that emits and that excites 124 00:05:49,810 --> 00:05:47,330 the the bio photons around each of the 125 00:05:51,880 --> 00:05:49,820 fingers and those bio photons the 126 00:05:53,950 --> 00:05:51,890 mission is captured by the digital 127 00:05:56,620 --> 00:05:53,960 camera and because it's captured by 128 00:05:58,780 --> 00:05:56,630 digital camera it allows us to do some 129 00:05:59,200 --> 00:05:58,790 quantitative analysis on the size of 130 00:06:04,629 --> 00:05:59,210 that energy 131 00:06:06,909 --> 00:06:04,639 a glow now Karaka believes that we can 132 00:06:09,850 --> 00:06:06,919 really understand how we process and 133 00:06:12,490 --> 00:06:09,860 absorb energy through these scans of 134 00:06:14,469 --> 00:06:12,500 each of the fingertips and karakov 135 00:06:16,629 --> 00:06:14,479 himself has done some independent 136 00:06:18,580 --> 00:06:16,639 research and looked at different sectors 137 00:06:21,909 --> 00:06:18,590 of different fingers borrowing from the 138 00:06:24,159 --> 00:06:21,919 traditions of Eastern medicine where 139 00:06:26,559 --> 00:06:24,169 each different part of the finger 140 00:06:28,210 --> 00:06:26,569 corresponds to different organ or a 141 00:06:30,189 --> 00:06:28,220 different system and they've been 142 00:06:32,439 --> 00:06:30,199 verified through clinical trials so if 143 00:06:35,260 --> 00:06:32,449 you look at the far right and you see a 144 00:06:37,150 --> 00:06:35,270 scan of the thumb you can see how that 145 00:06:39,189 --> 00:06:37,160 that bottom part of the thumb refers to 146 00:06:41,529 --> 00:06:39,199 the throat or the thyroid gland then you 147 00:06:43,779 --> 00:06:41,539 see some missing emissions there it 148 00:06:46,600 --> 00:06:43,789 shows that there's an under activity of 149 00:06:48,999 --> 00:06:46,610 energy a sort of diminished fatality of 150 00:06:54,640 --> 00:06:49,009 life force or energy that's in the 151 00:06:56,529 --> 00:06:54,650 throat or the thyroid and the key to GDP 152 00:06:58,659 --> 00:06:56,539 is really understanding the number of 153 00:07:01,180 --> 00:06:58,669 pixels that appear in each sectors so 154 00:07:03,070 --> 00:07:01,190 the idea is that when you add the number 155 00:07:05,379 --> 00:07:03,080 of pixels across all the different 156 00:07:08,439 --> 00:07:05,389 sectors across all the different fingers 157 00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:08,449 what you can finally calculate is the 158 00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:10,250 size of the energy field for any one 159 00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:11,810 given individual and that's the 160 00:07:17,170 --> 00:07:13,610 quantitative measure that we're going to 161 00:07:19,510 --> 00:07:17,180 be talking with you today now this 162 00:07:21,310 --> 00:07:19,520 technology continues to be vetted and it 163 00:07:23,499 --> 00:07:21,320 was approved by the Russian Ministry of 164 00:07:25,749 --> 00:07:23,509 Health following a series of clinical 165 00:07:27,879 --> 00:07:25,759 trials so it's gone through a rigorous 166 00:07:29,709 --> 00:07:27,889 vetting process and if you'd like to 167 00:07:31,360 --> 00:07:29,719 read more there have been over 80 papers 168 00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:31,370 that had been summarized in the 169 00:07:34,959 --> 00:07:32,930 meta-analysis in the Journal of 170 00:07:37,540 --> 00:07:34,969 alternative and complementary medicine 171 00:07:39,640 --> 00:07:37,550 and you see other institutions and 172 00:07:42,040 --> 00:07:39,650 organizations who have really taken gdv 173 00:07:47,230 --> 00:07:42,050 and looked at it into a more more 174 00:07:49,810 --> 00:07:47,240 detailed vetting process now the reason 175 00:07:51,490 --> 00:07:49,820 we're focused on GTV is because it can 176 00:07:54,010 --> 00:07:51,500 help us understand whether there are any 177 00:07:56,709 --> 00:07:54,020 particular energy signature patterns and 178 00:07:58,990 --> 00:07:56,719 so we wanted to find out there are 179 00:08:01,600 --> 00:07:59,000 envelope experiment is there a specific 180 00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:01,610 energy signature to the Bengston method 181 00:08:06,100 --> 00:08:04,130 because that really helps add to the 182 00:08:08,709 --> 00:08:06,110 literature behind energy healing of a 183 00:08:10,570 --> 00:08:08,719 more systematic understanding of the 184 00:08:11,650 --> 00:08:10,580 nature of healing and it can help us 185 00:08:15,040 --> 00:08:11,660 understand that 186 00:08:16,990 --> 00:08:15,050 Metzenbaum in healing but the second 187 00:08:19,840 --> 00:08:17,000 question we wanted to understand was 188 00:08:21,940 --> 00:08:19,850 whether these scans just like the EEG s 189 00:08:24,370 --> 00:08:21,950 and the MRIs that we've seen and prior 190 00:08:26,350 --> 00:08:24,380 research do those also reveal an 191 00:08:28,870 --> 00:08:26,360 autonomic response in the energy field 192 00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:28,880 and if they do involve an autonomic 193 00:08:36,430 --> 00:08:34,010 response what exactly happens so when we 194 00:08:38,200 --> 00:08:36,440 conducted the envelope experiment we had 195 00:08:41,260 --> 00:08:38,210 nine participants involved including 196 00:08:43,570 --> 00:08:41,270 myself all of us were either were 197 00:08:45,310 --> 00:08:43,580 trained by Bill as he visited us in 198 00:08:47,620 --> 00:08:45,320 Chicago during an in-person weekend 199 00:08:49,540 --> 00:08:47,630 workshop last March and one person 200 00:08:52,270 --> 00:08:49,550 actually was trained using his sounds 201 00:08:54,850 --> 00:08:52,280 true CD program and all the folks that 202 00:08:57,400 --> 00:08:54,860 came in came from wide range of 203 00:08:59,290 --> 00:08:57,410 occupations some of us work in fast 204 00:09:00,100 --> 00:08:59,300 paced corporate environments as part of 205 00:09:02,500 --> 00:09:00,110 our day jobs 206 00:09:04,960 --> 00:09:02,510 other folks are teachers or energy 207 00:09:07,660 --> 00:09:04,970 psychologists or energy workers are 208 00:09:10,900 --> 00:09:07,670 nurses so we came from a wide range of 209 00:09:12,340 --> 00:09:10,910 backgrounds and I can't have talked to a 210 00:09:14,680 --> 00:09:12,350 little bit earlier today about the 211 00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:14,690 nature resident bonding and all the 212 00:09:19,180 --> 00:09:16,970 folks that came in today we had a 213 00:09:22,650 --> 00:09:19,190 varying level of familiarity with each 214 00:09:25,420 --> 00:09:22,660 other we did not come in all friends all 215 00:09:27,010 --> 00:09:25,430 acquaintances some of us did not know 216 00:09:28,870 --> 00:09:27,020 each other when we first started this 217 00:09:31,090 --> 00:09:28,880 experiment so there was a varying degree 218 00:09:33,760 --> 00:09:31,100 of familiarity with everybody in the 219 00:09:35,500 --> 00:09:33,770 group and we all volunteered to 220 00:09:39,190 --> 00:09:35,510 participate so there may have been some 221 00:09:42,490 --> 00:09:39,200 potential self selection bias now when 222 00:09:44,410 --> 00:09:42,500 we got everybody in the same room the 223 00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:44,420 conduct experiment we instructed 224 00:09:50,260 --> 00:09:47,930 everybody do not do image cycling and so 225 00:09:52,180 --> 00:09:50,270 we wanted to avoid conscious cycling to 226 00:09:55,780 --> 00:09:52,190 make sure that effect was taken out the 227 00:09:59,470 --> 00:09:55,790 intent of image cycling was removed from 228 00:10:02,320 --> 00:09:59,480 the the ultimate scans so as you can see 229 00:10:04,300 --> 00:10:02,330 there we took a scan of everybody before 230 00:10:06,820 --> 00:10:04,310 holding an envelope we had only one 231 00:10:08,590 --> 00:10:06,830 person hold at one envelope at a time to 232 00:10:10,210 --> 00:10:08,600 avoid any interaction effects of 233 00:10:13,060 --> 00:10:10,220 multiple people holding multiple 234 00:10:15,640 --> 00:10:13,070 envelopes at the same time and then we 235 00:10:17,830 --> 00:10:15,650 took another scan of an individual 236 00:10:21,440 --> 00:10:17,840 holding the envelope after about 10 237 00:10:25,940 --> 00:10:23,870 now the envelope content instead of a 238 00:10:28,700 --> 00:10:25,950 hair sample of an individual with cancer 239 00:10:31,040 --> 00:10:28,710 we had names of individuals who were 240 00:10:33,800 --> 00:10:31,050 undergoing Bengston treatments from 241 00:10:38,090 --> 00:10:33,810 Bernadette or they were blank index 242 00:10:39,800 --> 00:10:38,100 cards so the none of us knew what was in 243 00:10:41,960 --> 00:10:39,810 the envelope and we actually had more 244 00:10:43,340 --> 00:10:41,970 envelopes than we had people to 245 00:10:50,750 --> 00:10:43,350 introduce a little bit of extra 246 00:10:54,170 --> 00:10:50,760 randomness in the experiment so the 247 00:10:56,450 --> 00:10:54,180 hypothesis was that anybody who's 248 00:10:59,330 --> 00:10:56,460 holding an envelope a sealed envelope 249 00:11:01,070 --> 00:10:59,340 with names in it of cancer patients we 250 00:11:03,740 --> 00:11:01,080 should be able to observe some sort of 251 00:11:05,650 --> 00:11:03,750 autonomic Ben stand method energy 252 00:11:08,210 --> 00:11:05,660 response among those therapists and we 253 00:11:10,490 --> 00:11:08,220 shouldn't see any kind of response among 254 00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:10,500 the folks who are holding a blank index 255 00:11:15,680 --> 00:11:13,770 card but in order to make a lot of sense 256 00:11:18,470 --> 00:11:15,690 of the results we have to first define 257 00:11:21,680 --> 00:11:18,480 what the Bankston energy signature looks 258 00:11:23,300 --> 00:11:21,690 like because it could mean a whole lot 259 00:11:25,490 --> 00:11:23,310 of different things and the nice 260 00:11:27,350 --> 00:11:25,500 advantage of working at a Wellness 261 00:11:30,020 --> 00:11:27,360 Center such as equilibrium is that folks 262 00:11:32,270 --> 00:11:30,030 come Nasik and they ask us can we have a 263 00:11:34,790 --> 00:11:32,280 Bankston treatment and so we use that 264 00:11:37,670 --> 00:11:34,800 opportunity to get a pre read and a post 265 00:11:40,010 --> 00:11:37,680 read of what happens to them after each 266 00:11:42,760 --> 00:11:40,020 of those treatments taking these gdv 267 00:11:45,350 --> 00:11:42,770 scans and to make sense of the results 268 00:11:47,930 --> 00:11:45,360 when you have to look at two sets of 269 00:11:50,150 --> 00:11:47,940 finger scans for each individual's now 270 00:11:53,150 --> 00:11:50,160 the first set of scans when people place 271 00:11:54,920 --> 00:11:53,160 their fingers on the electrodes we don't 272 00:11:57,380 --> 00:11:54,930 use a plastic filter right on the 273 00:11:59,210 --> 00:11:57,390 electrode and that enables us to capture 274 00:12:01,460 --> 00:11:59,220 um the amount of sweat on our fingers 275 00:12:03,710 --> 00:12:01,470 and because of that it reflects back 276 00:12:06,290 --> 00:12:03,720 tivity level of the sympathetic nervous 277 00:12:08,390 --> 00:12:06,300 system and korotkov claims that that 278 00:12:11,390 --> 00:12:08,400 allows us to understand the psycho 279 00:12:14,210 --> 00:12:11,400 emotional constitution of the individual 280 00:12:16,700 --> 00:12:14,220 now we take a second set of scans when 281 00:12:19,190 --> 00:12:16,710 we look at the we put a polyethylene 282 00:12:20,840 --> 00:12:19,200 filter right on the electrode and that 283 00:12:23,480 --> 00:12:20,850 prevents the sweat from being picked up 284 00:12:24,970 --> 00:12:23,490 by the gdv scan and that reflects the 285 00:12:27,530 --> 00:12:24,980 activity level or the parasympathetic 286 00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:27,540 nervous system which reflects the 287 00:12:32,540 --> 00:12:30,330 physical condition of the individual and 288 00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:32,550 so when you'll see here in the next 289 00:12:35,020 --> 00:12:34,770 series of slides is just what happens to 290 00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:35,030 keep 291 00:12:39,880 --> 00:12:37,850 energy fields both from a physical which 292 00:12:41,920 --> 00:12:39,890 is the blue bar and an emotional which 293 00:12:44,860 --> 00:12:41,930 is a red bar and what you see here is 294 00:12:47,800 --> 00:12:44,870 the pre versus post impact so at a 295 00:12:49,750 --> 00:12:47,810 hundred meaning no real change you saw 296 00:12:51,910 --> 00:12:49,760 on average no real change to an 297 00:12:54,490 --> 00:12:51,920 individual's physical energy field after 298 00:12:57,340 --> 00:12:54,500 Bankston treatment but when you look at 299 00:12:59,590 --> 00:12:57,350 the emotional field you saw about a five 300 00:13:02,890 --> 00:12:59,600 percent decrease on an emotional field 301 00:13:05,290 --> 00:13:02,900 on average and it's not necessarily a 302 00:13:07,390 --> 00:13:05,300 hugely significant difference but it's a 303 00:13:08,590 --> 00:13:07,400 consistent difference the trend is there 304 00:13:11,140 --> 00:13:08,600 we don't have the numbers for 305 00:13:14,620 --> 00:13:11,150 statistical significance but the trend 306 00:13:18,100 --> 00:13:14,630 is certainly there so the big question 307 00:13:19,870 --> 00:13:18,110 is isn't this Benson method going 308 00:13:21,310 --> 00:13:19,880 through the root cause it's a 309 00:13:24,010 --> 00:13:21,320 penetrating to the root cause of disease 310 00:13:25,930 --> 00:13:24,020 which often begins on an emotional level 311 00:13:28,810 --> 00:13:25,940 is that why can heal a lot of diseases 312 00:13:31,060 --> 00:13:28,820 such as cancer or some of these really 313 00:13:34,270 --> 00:13:31,070 challenging diseases that aren't 314 00:13:38,080 --> 00:13:34,280 necessarily based on a from a physical 315 00:13:39,910 --> 00:13:38,090 root cause now we also wanted to look at 316 00:13:41,920 --> 00:13:39,920 what happens between a therapist and a 317 00:13:43,990 --> 00:13:41,930 recipient who conduct the Bankston 318 00:13:46,570 --> 00:13:44,000 method and when we looked at therapists 319 00:13:48,640 --> 00:13:46,580 you saw the same shrinkage and emotional 320 00:13:51,010 --> 00:13:48,650 field and about the same stability and 321 00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:51,020 the physical energy field and when you 322 00:13:55,600 --> 00:13:53,210 looked at the recipient again the same 323 00:13:57,610 --> 00:13:55,610 shrinkage in the emotional field of the 324 00:14:00,370 --> 00:13:57,620 recipient but there was a little bit of 325 00:14:02,079 --> 00:14:00,380 expansion in the recipients physical 326 00:14:05,410 --> 00:14:02,089 field so they were definitely getting a 327 00:14:08,020 --> 00:14:05,420 benefit from the Bengston treatments now 328 00:14:10,150 --> 00:14:08,030 the question that this produces is that 329 00:14:12,310 --> 00:14:10,160 we see the similarity between the 330 00:14:14,829 --> 00:14:12,320 therapist and the recipient does that 331 00:14:17,140 --> 00:14:14,839 mean that there's some sort of resident 332 00:14:19,150 --> 00:14:17,150 bonding going on between a therapist and 333 00:14:23,170 --> 00:14:19,160 a recipient when a Bengston treatment 334 00:14:24,790 --> 00:14:23,180 occurs unanswered question now what 335 00:14:27,520 --> 00:14:24,800 you'll see here is a series of slides 336 00:14:29,560 --> 00:14:27,530 and on the x-axis is the size of the 337 00:14:31,840 --> 00:14:29,570 energy field before banks and treatment 338 00:14:34,240 --> 00:14:31,850 and on the y-axis the size of the energy 339 00:14:36,220 --> 00:14:34,250 field after the treatment and I'm really 340 00:14:37,990 --> 00:14:36,230 impressed by the strength of the 341 00:14:40,810 --> 00:14:38,000 predictability and the correlation 342 00:14:43,329 --> 00:14:40,820 between the pre and post in the 343 00:14:44,949 --> 00:14:43,339 emotional energy field and you don't 344 00:14:46,990 --> 00:14:44,959 really see that in the physical energy 345 00:14:48,290 --> 00:14:47,000 field that's a really sharp contrast and 346 00:14:52,340 --> 00:14:48,300 the predictability 347 00:14:54,770 --> 00:14:52,350 for and after now well because when 348 00:14:57,650 --> 00:14:54,780 equilibrium the Backson method is one of 349 00:14:59,660 --> 00:14:57,660 our favorite methods of energy work but 350 00:15:01,520 --> 00:14:59,670 we also have a couple other popular 351 00:15:03,500 --> 00:15:01,530 forms of energy work including Reiki 352 00:15:05,630 --> 00:15:03,510 which is a hands-on another hands-on 353 00:15:07,820 --> 00:15:05,640 form of healing and holographic memory 354 00:15:10,160 --> 00:15:07,830 resolution which is a form of energy 355 00:15:11,930 --> 00:15:10,170 psychology and when you look at those 356 00:15:14,180 --> 00:15:11,940 r-squared values is strength of the 357 00:15:18,020 --> 00:15:14,190 predictability between the pre and post 358 00:15:20,240 --> 00:15:18,030 Fields in those particular modalities 359 00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:20,250 you don't see that same effect for Ricky 360 00:15:24,470 --> 00:15:23,010 and holographic memory resolution and in 361 00:15:26,390 --> 00:15:24,480 fact when you look at those two 362 00:15:28,580 --> 00:15:26,400 particular modalities it's a little bit 363 00:15:31,010 --> 00:15:28,590 stronger for the physical field than it 364 00:15:32,950 --> 00:15:31,020 is for the emotional field so you can 365 00:15:35,630 --> 00:15:32,960 see that the Bankston method has 366 00:15:38,600 --> 00:15:35,640 potentially what we call a unique and 367 00:15:40,370 --> 00:15:38,610 energy signature is this enough data to 368 00:15:43,310 --> 00:15:40,380 say that there's a unique energy 369 00:15:45,260 --> 00:15:43,320 signature to the Bankston method I don't 370 00:15:47,420 --> 00:15:45,270 know it's one of the questions but there 371 00:15:50,150 --> 00:15:47,430 certainly shows that there's a clear 372 00:15:52,220 --> 00:15:50,160 difference with Venson method versus 373 00:15:56,090 --> 00:15:52,230 other popular forms of energy huge 374 00:15:57,620 --> 00:15:56,100 healing now we know that because 375 00:15:59,210 --> 00:15:57,630 different sectors of the finger 376 00:16:01,820 --> 00:15:59,220 correspond to different aspects of the 377 00:16:03,800 --> 00:16:01,830 body when Karaka of claims you can also 378 00:16:07,000 --> 00:16:03,810 measure the size and the vitality of 379 00:16:10,370 --> 00:16:07,010 different chakras within the system so 380 00:16:13,430 --> 00:16:10,380 the output this is some one output that 381 00:16:16,460 --> 00:16:13,440 you see from a typical gdv scan and 382 00:16:18,020 --> 00:16:16,470 don't ignore right now the alignment of 383 00:16:21,110 --> 00:16:18,030 where the balls are but the bigger the 384 00:16:23,210 --> 00:16:21,120 balls the bigger the chakra size and so 385 00:16:24,800 --> 00:16:23,220 that's what somebody looks like before 386 00:16:26,420 --> 00:16:24,810 coming in for banks and treatment and 387 00:16:27,920 --> 00:16:26,430 then that's what somebody would look 388 00:16:30,860 --> 00:16:27,930 like after they come in for a treatment 389 00:16:33,890 --> 00:16:30,870 now what is the the denominator what is 390 00:16:36,410 --> 00:16:33,900 a theme that you see shrinkage in the 391 00:16:38,450 --> 00:16:36,420 size of the chakras and then that's what 392 00:16:40,340 --> 00:16:38,460 we tend to see in general that the 393 00:16:43,540 --> 00:16:40,350 Bankson method tends to shrink the major 394 00:16:46,280 --> 00:16:43,550 energy centers after treatment and so 395 00:16:49,190 --> 00:16:46,290 the possible explanation is that when 396 00:16:51,650 --> 00:16:49,200 the system becomes excited and emission 397 00:16:54,920 --> 00:16:51,660 of energy tends to occur but that causes 398 00:16:57,080 --> 00:16:54,930 the system to go to a lower state of 399 00:17:00,560 --> 00:16:57,090 energy and then that could be a cause of 400 00:17:01,730 --> 00:17:00,570 the shrinkage and that's all driven by 401 00:17:03,830 --> 00:17:01,740 what happens in 402 00:17:06,230 --> 00:17:03,840 cycling so an image fight cycling you're 403 00:17:08,270 --> 00:17:06,240 thinking about your most ardent desires 404 00:17:10,100 --> 00:17:08,280 done the wishes that you want most 405 00:17:14,300 --> 00:17:10,110 fulfilled and sometimes it gets you 406 00:17:16,340 --> 00:17:14,310 excited now when you look at across all 407 00:17:18,710 --> 00:17:16,350 the different seven major energy centers 408 00:17:21,770 --> 00:17:18,720 you see that shrinkage pretty consistent 409 00:17:24,410 --> 00:17:21,780 so there's not one place in in the the 410 00:17:27,020 --> 00:17:24,420 body that's necessarily more active or 411 00:17:29,300 --> 00:17:27,030 more shrinking than than another and 412 00:17:31,670 --> 00:17:29,310 when we wanted to put this in the 413 00:17:34,820 --> 00:17:31,680 context looking at reiki and holographic 414 00:17:36,800 --> 00:17:34,830 memory resolution the question is do we 415 00:17:39,320 --> 00:17:36,810 see the same kind of shrinkage in those 416 00:17:41,930 --> 00:17:39,330 two modalities versus Bengston method 417 00:17:45,020 --> 00:17:41,940 and the answer is no we actually see 418 00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:45,030 more expansion in the chakras with Reiki 419 00:17:49,220 --> 00:17:47,010 and more expansion with holographic 420 00:17:51,380 --> 00:17:49,230 memory resolution so this is another 421 00:17:53,690 --> 00:17:51,390 data point to suggest that there could 422 00:17:57,650 --> 00:17:53,700 be a unique energy signature to the 423 00:17:59,690 --> 00:17:57,660 Bankston matter so that leads us now 424 00:18:02,120 --> 00:17:59,700 that we're grounded on what the 425 00:18:04,460 --> 00:18:02,130 potential unique energy signature is 426 00:18:06,350 --> 00:18:04,470 from a Bengston method that leads us 427 00:18:08,150 --> 00:18:06,360 that gives us the opportunity to 428 00:18:10,940 --> 00:18:08,160 understand the envelope experiment 429 00:18:13,160 --> 00:18:10,950 results so we know just to recap we see 430 00:18:15,020 --> 00:18:13,170 shrinkage and emotional energy fields we 431 00:18:17,060 --> 00:18:15,030 see no huge change in the physical 432 00:18:20,630 --> 00:18:17,070 energy fields and we see shrinkage 433 00:18:22,520 --> 00:18:20,640 overall from most of the chakras and you 434 00:18:25,760 --> 00:18:22,530 can see there's more shrinkage when 435 00:18:28,910 --> 00:18:25,770 people who held the Mane's you can see 436 00:18:31,310 --> 00:18:28,920 and the people with no names there's a 437 00:18:33,110 --> 00:18:31,320 pretty similar response among people 438 00:18:35,300 --> 00:18:33,120 with and without names an envelope you 439 00:18:39,230 --> 00:18:35,310 can see that the correlation still 440 00:18:41,270 --> 00:18:39,240 pretty strong before and after and even 441 00:18:43,520 --> 00:18:41,280 people with versus without an envelope 442 00:18:46,150 --> 00:18:43,530 and the physical energy field still 443 00:18:48,080 --> 00:18:46,160 doesn't exhibit any kind of relationship 444 00:18:50,180 --> 00:18:48,090 when you look at the change in the 445 00:18:51,830 --> 00:18:50,190 chakra size you can see that the people 446 00:18:53,660 --> 00:18:51,840 with the names actually had a slightly 447 00:18:55,460 --> 00:18:53,670 greater energetic response and the 448 00:18:58,190 --> 00:18:55,470 people without the names but they still 449 00:19:00,680 --> 00:18:58,200 look like there was a Bankston signature 450 00:19:03,560 --> 00:19:00,690 going on and when you looked at the 451 00:19:04,880 --> 00:19:03,570 excitement levels the excitement levels 452 00:19:08,000 --> 00:19:04,890 of the people with names and without 453 00:19:10,040 --> 00:19:08,010 names increased to a similar degree so 454 00:19:10,749 --> 00:19:10,050 again that suggests that there's some 455 00:19:14,019 --> 00:19:10,759 resident 456 00:19:15,909 --> 00:19:14,029 going on now when we ask people if they 457 00:19:19,029 --> 00:19:15,919 felt like they had a name in their 458 00:19:20,799 --> 00:19:19,039 envelope people were not correct in 459 00:19:22,959 --> 00:19:20,809 their subjective interpretation so it 460 00:19:25,060 --> 00:19:22,969 just goes to the bills point and then 461 00:19:27,369 --> 00:19:25,070 he's made several times before that more 462 00:19:30,219 --> 00:19:27,379 objective data behind energy is healing 463 00:19:33,099 --> 00:19:30,229 is needed and that so much an energy 464 00:19:35,109 --> 00:19:33,109 work is assumed and objective data is 465 00:19:38,379 --> 00:19:35,119 really needed when trying to understand 466 00:19:41,709 --> 00:19:38,389 the impact of energy healing now we also 467 00:19:43,569 --> 00:19:41,719 looked at the different variation of the 468 00:19:45,789 --> 00:19:43,579 envelope experiment because of the fact 469 00:19:47,739 --> 00:19:45,799 that we had so many participants did 470 00:19:50,859 --> 00:19:47,749 those group effects did resident bonding 471 00:19:52,779 --> 00:19:50,869 affect our results in any way well this 472 00:19:54,699 --> 00:19:52,789 time we only had Bernadette participate 473 00:19:56,939 --> 00:19:54,709 and we had her go through the same 474 00:19:59,499 --> 00:19:56,949 instructions as we shared with a group 475 00:20:03,579 --> 00:19:59,509 now this was her baseline read on the 476 00:20:06,279 --> 00:20:03,589 far left and unbeknownst us she we had 477 00:20:08,259 --> 00:20:06,289 names in the first three envelopes so 478 00:20:10,299 --> 00:20:08,269 after five minutes our energy field 479 00:20:12,579 --> 00:20:10,309 shrink just a little bit after ten 480 00:20:14,859 --> 00:20:12,589 minutes it continued to shrink after 15 481 00:20:16,419 --> 00:20:14,869 minutes it shrank even more and half 482 00:20:19,659 --> 00:20:16,429 when in the last envelope where there 483 00:20:22,119 --> 00:20:19,669 was no name we saw a restoration in our 484 00:20:26,079 --> 00:20:22,129 emotional energy field so the GDD scan 485 00:20:27,729 --> 00:20:26,089 was picking up an autonomic response did 486 00:20:29,709 --> 00:20:27,739 we see that same of impact in the 487 00:20:32,469 --> 00:20:29,719 physical energy field yes 488 00:20:34,419 --> 00:20:32,479 but not to the same extent and we saw 489 00:20:36,009 --> 00:20:34,429 the same shrinkage and chakra size and 490 00:20:39,159 --> 00:20:36,019 even more pronounced than what we saw 491 00:20:41,049 --> 00:20:39,169 earlier so the key takeaways was that 492 00:20:43,599 --> 00:20:41,059 there's a predictable consistent and 493 00:20:45,519 --> 00:20:43,609 measurable effect on an individual's 494 00:20:47,499 --> 00:20:45,529 energy field for somebody going through 495 00:20:49,180 --> 00:20:47,509 the Bankston treatment and it really 496 00:20:52,479 --> 00:20:49,190 appears that there's a unique energy 497 00:20:54,759 --> 00:20:52,489 profile or signature now the treatment 498 00:20:56,979 --> 00:20:54,769 definitely appears to produce more 499 00:20:59,379 --> 00:20:56,989 excited state in the autonomic in the 500 00:21:01,779 --> 00:20:59,389 sympathetic nervous system and it really 501 00:21:04,839 --> 00:21:01,789 appears more in the emotional versus the 502 00:21:06,729 --> 00:21:04,849 physical energy field now with gdb we 503 00:21:08,949 --> 00:21:06,739 only focused on one of the major metrics 504 00:21:10,139 --> 00:21:08,959 there's a lot more metrics behind the 505 00:21:13,119 --> 00:21:10,149 gdv output 506 00:21:16,119 --> 00:21:13,129 related to organ vitality that really 507 00:21:18,069 --> 00:21:16,129 could help us better understand what the 508 00:21:18,740 --> 00:21:18,079 energetic underpinnings from an organ 509 00:21:25,130 --> 00:21:18,750 and an 510 00:21:27,200 --> 00:21:25,140 what some of the questions was did by 511 00:21:29,510 --> 00:21:27,210 telling people not the image cycle did 512 00:21:32,120 --> 00:21:29,520 that produce the effect the opposite 513 00:21:34,430 --> 00:21:32,130 effect of people cycling subconsciously 514 00:21:37,399 --> 00:21:34,440 and perhaps that was a case but that 515 00:21:40,130 --> 00:21:37,409 really gives us an indication of what's 516 00:21:42,919 --> 00:21:40,140 our inability or ability to turn on or 517 00:21:45,350 --> 00:21:42,929 off the Bengston energy and the 518 00:21:47,870 --> 00:21:45,360 autonomic responses to the stimulus are 519 00:21:50,720 --> 00:21:47,880 definitely recognized by the GTV scans 520 00:21:52,970 --> 00:21:50,730 and it proves that reactions can occur 521 00:21:55,789 --> 00:21:52,980 to anybody trained in the Bankston 522 00:21:58,070 --> 00:21:55,799 method and just not by Bill himself so 523 00:22:00,350 --> 00:21:58,080 it doesn't speak to whether healing can 524 00:22:02,330 --> 00:22:00,360 necessarily be taught because none of 525 00:22:04,880 --> 00:22:02,340 our scans were taken before learning 526 00:22:07,130 --> 00:22:04,890 dubbed the Bankston method but just 527 00:22:10,610 --> 00:22:07,140 shows that the impact can occur among 528 00:22:12,649 --> 00:22:10,620 people who are not bill and it proves 529 00:22:14,539 --> 00:22:12,659 that subjective assessments again are 530 00:22:16,940 --> 00:22:14,549 just unreliable we need more objective 531 00:22:18,799 --> 00:22:16,950 pieces of data and that resonant bonding 532 00:22:21,950 --> 00:22:18,809 effects are really alive and well 533 00:22:23,930 --> 00:22:21,960 Bernadette was the key in all both 534 00:22:26,090 --> 00:22:23,940 experiments if she did not participate 535 00:22:27,950 --> 00:22:26,100 in both the first and second envelope 536 00:22:31,880 --> 00:22:27,960 experiment how would that have changed 537 00:22:34,310 --> 00:22:31,890 results and how would how would have the 538 00:22:36,049 --> 00:22:34,320 results differed if we had patients who 539 00:22:38,539 --> 00:22:36,059 burnin that had not known and we got 540 00:22:41,360 --> 00:22:38,549 those names from a doctor we hadn't 541 00:22:43,820 --> 00:22:41,370 never been in contact with those are 542 00:22:46,370 --> 00:22:43,830 some questions that are still left 543 00:22:49,430 --> 00:22:46,380 unanswered and so some of the broader 544 00:22:51,200 --> 00:22:49,440 implications is that why is the effect 545 00:22:53,360 --> 00:22:51,210 happening in the motional field rather 546 00:22:55,130 --> 00:22:53,370 than the physical energy field so does 547 00:22:56,870 --> 00:22:55,140 that suggest that healing happens not in 548 00:22:59,360 --> 00:22:56,880 the body but in the quantum energy field 549 00:23:02,000 --> 00:22:59,370 and what's the role of excitement and 550 00:23:03,980 --> 00:23:02,010 healing for example in energy and 551 00:23:06,380 --> 00:23:03,990 emotion and Kent had talked about this a 552 00:23:08,090 --> 00:23:06,390 little bit earlier when you have ritual 553 00:23:09,980 --> 00:23:08,100 you don't get excited anymore 554 00:23:13,720 --> 00:23:09,990 and when you have ritual that may 555 00:23:17,180 --> 00:23:13,730 diminish the impact of healing and 556 00:23:19,940 --> 00:23:17,190 lastly how can gdb be used to supplement 557 00:23:22,010 --> 00:23:19,950 future energy work research because gdb 558 00:23:24,470 --> 00:23:22,020 scans we just touched upon a little bit 559 00:23:26,419 --> 00:23:24,480 of the major summary measures but you 560 00:23:28,789 --> 00:23:26,429 cannot understand the vitality levels of 561 00:23:29,849 --> 00:23:28,799 the different organs based on different 562 00:23:32,320 --> 00:23:29,859 energy modality 563 00:23:34,089 --> 00:23:32,330 so we have a lot of questions left 564 00:23:35,889 --> 00:23:34,099 unanswered but hopefully it gave us some 565 00:23:37,749 --> 00:23:35,899 food for thought as we had the lunch and 566 00:23:44,799 --> 00:23:37,759 I really appreciate your time 567 00:23:46,959 --> 00:23:44,809 thank you for your question thank you we 568 00:23:49,060 --> 00:23:46,969 only have time for maybe two questions 569 00:23:56,589 --> 00:23:49,070 at best so if we have a couple people 570 00:23:59,889 --> 00:23:56,599 who have a question right now so I 571 00:24:04,839 --> 00:23:59,899 assume that you measuring area correct 572 00:24:06,279 --> 00:24:04,849 okay because the gdv has probably 50 573 00:24:08,200 --> 00:24:06,289 different parameters you could have 574 00:24:10,930 --> 00:24:08,210 measured and I assume there are no 575 00:24:13,180 --> 00:24:10,940 changes in the other parameters and the 576 00:24:15,310 --> 00:24:13,190 largest changes were in the area so my 577 00:24:19,209 --> 00:24:15,320 question is that since you're observing 578 00:24:22,539 --> 00:24:19,219 a decrease in in the energy emissions 579 00:24:24,729 --> 00:24:22,549 from a healer in basically without the 580 00:24:26,409 --> 00:24:24,739 filter how does this data compare with 581 00:24:28,450 --> 00:24:26,419 all the other experiments that have been 582 00:24:31,119 --> 00:24:28,460 done with currently in photography which 583 00:24:33,820 --> 00:24:31,129 is basically the same as gdv without the 584 00:24:37,419 --> 00:24:33,830 filter of course all curl old currently 585 00:24:39,310 --> 00:24:37,429 in Data never used filters so and 586 00:24:42,159 --> 00:24:39,320 there's a lot of studies which has shown 587 00:24:44,200 --> 00:24:42,169 that healers and meat more energy when 588 00:24:47,049 --> 00:24:44,210 they heal now you're telling us that 589 00:24:50,169 --> 00:24:47,059 this healer emits less energy when he 590 00:24:52,269 --> 00:24:50,179 heals it doesn't seem to jive I think 591 00:24:54,519 --> 00:24:52,279 the clarification is that when you see a 592 00:24:56,499 --> 00:24:54,529 lower number it means there's more sweat 593 00:24:59,529 --> 00:24:56,509 on the fingertips so it means there's 594 00:25:02,019 --> 00:24:59,539 that's an interpretation I'm talking 595 00:25:04,389 --> 00:25:02,029 about the raw data you're measuring 596 00:25:07,989 --> 00:25:04,399 whatever currently and measures whether 597 00:25:09,549 --> 00:25:07,999 it's sympathetic paris's photons I don't 598 00:25:11,589 --> 00:25:09,559 think it's measuring photon but you know 599 00:25:14,950 --> 00:25:11,599 whatever it measures you're getting a 600 00:25:16,810 --> 00:25:14,960 decrease and all other studies like this 601 00:25:20,019 --> 00:25:16,820 in the past have shown an increase with 602 00:25:22,450 --> 00:25:20,029 Kirlian it could be it could be 603 00:25:24,639 --> 00:25:22,460 something unique to the system or is it 604 00:25:26,680 --> 00:25:24,649 unique to build and have you actually 605 00:25:30,759 --> 00:25:26,690 done bill gets the same thing as well as 606 00:25:32,680 --> 00:25:30,769 the students a decrease well I haven't 607 00:25:35,619 --> 00:25:32,690 taken enough scans of bill to come out 608 00:25:36,669 --> 00:25:35,629 other conclusion on that okay just think 609 00:25:39,060 --> 00:25:36,679 about I think it's a good question
