1 00:00:13,169 --> 00:00:10,910 wonderful preview so you can see your 2 00:00:15,900 --> 00:00:13,179 notes great 3 00:00:17,400 --> 00:00:15,910 good afternoon everybody it's been a 4 00:00:19,980 --> 00:00:17,410 pleasure to be at the conference so far 5 00:00:21,390 --> 00:00:19,990 and the theme of Concilium sand the 6 00:00:23,850 --> 00:00:21,400 diversity in the room has been 7 00:00:27,210 --> 00:00:23,860 fascinating to me so I represent one 8 00:00:28,890 --> 00:00:27,220 fractal of that diversity and this is a 9 00:00:30,839 --> 00:00:28,900 picture that's compelling to me because 10 00:00:35,400 --> 00:00:30,849 when I was in high school I first met 11 00:00:36,570 --> 00:00:35,410 how Hal put off in Russell Targ NSRI and 12 00:00:39,660 --> 00:00:36,580 they were doing reviewing 13 00:00:41,939 --> 00:00:39,670 experimentation Stargate and I haven't I 14 00:00:44,750 --> 00:00:41,949 haven't stopped asking questions ever 15 00:00:46,649 --> 00:00:44,760 since so we're here today to talk about 16 00:00:51,060 --> 00:00:46,659 some of the research that we've been 17 00:00:52,410 --> 00:00:51,070 doing funding in subtle energy and in 18 00:00:53,520 --> 00:00:52,420 particular we're here to talk about a 19 00:00:56,369 --> 00:00:53,530 clear hypothesis 20 00:00:58,229 --> 00:00:56,379 perhaps a complimentary conciliate 21 00:01:00,450 --> 00:00:58,239 approach given our respective 22 00:01:02,820 --> 00:01:00,460 backgrounds as entrepreneurs and 23 00:01:05,100 --> 00:01:02,830 investors some of the research efforts 24 00:01:07,760 --> 00:01:05,110 we've been doing to date as the Meraki 25 00:01:09,600 --> 00:01:07,770 Institute and emerald gate and then also 26 00:01:12,410 --> 00:01:09,610 walking you through a little bit of a 27 00:01:14,789 --> 00:01:12,420 systems roadmap and mapping approach 28 00:01:17,430 --> 00:01:14,799 whereby we're looking to define a set of 29 00:01:19,050 --> 00:01:17,440 research priorities and would love the 30 00:01:21,300 --> 00:01:19,060 collaboration of people in this room 31 00:01:24,600 --> 00:01:21,310 because I think we're gonna collectively 32 00:01:25,770 --> 00:01:24,610 make a difference together now we've 33 00:01:27,870 --> 00:01:25,780 been talking about a pretty clear 34 00:01:30,060 --> 00:01:27,880 hypothesis over the past in a couple 35 00:01:31,500 --> 00:01:30,070 days we believe there are fundamental 36 00:01:34,080 --> 00:01:31,510 cracks in our Western scientific 37 00:01:36,030 --> 00:01:34,090 worldview right perhaps a mechanistic 38 00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:36,040 view of the world is insufficient 39 00:01:40,560 --> 00:01:38,650 perhaps complex systems are not 40 00:01:43,740 --> 00:01:40,570 reducible to their parts 41 00:01:46,290 --> 00:01:43,750 maybe not only material things are real 42 00:01:48,750 --> 00:01:46,300 in other words things that we can't see 43 00:01:51,330 --> 00:01:48,760 perhaps they also matter right and 44 00:01:53,910 --> 00:01:51,340 objects aren't entirely separate but 45 00:01:56,820 --> 00:01:53,920 rather are non locally connected across 46 00:01:59,969 --> 00:01:56,830 space and perhaps time right and the 47 00:02:02,340 --> 00:01:59,979 physical world is not independent of our 48 00:02:04,200 --> 00:02:02,350 observation but influenced by it so 49 00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:04,210 common themes we've been discussing for 50 00:02:09,419 --> 00:02:06,850 the past couple days now we've decided 51 00:02:11,880 --> 00:02:09,429 to focus on a particular aspect of this 52 00:02:13,890 --> 00:02:11,890 which is subtle energy and I think one 53 00:02:16,440 --> 00:02:13,900 of our collaborators dr. bill tiller 54 00:02:18,330 --> 00:02:16,450 Stanford emeritus professor has 55 00:02:20,759 --> 00:02:18,340 characterized you know that there is a 56 00:02:23,269 --> 00:02:20,769 set of experimental data well beyond the 57 00:02:25,890 --> 00:02:23,279 four known forces in the universe and 58 00:02:26,490 --> 00:02:25,900 convert their their convertible to 59 00:02:28,830 --> 00:02:26,500 observe 60 00:02:31,230 --> 00:02:28,840 data through transducer like a living 61 00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:31,240 system our human body happens to be such 62 00:02:36,810 --> 00:02:34,210 a living system so we've we've 63 00:02:40,020 --> 00:02:36,820 identified many monikers for this prana 64 00:02:43,080 --> 00:02:40,030 cheeky subtle energy so we won't get 65 00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:43,090 caught up in in the monikers and we'll 66 00:02:46,590 --> 00:02:44,530 talk more about that a little later but 67 00:02:48,180 --> 00:02:46,600 suffice it to say that there appears to 68 00:02:49,949 --> 00:02:48,190 be a self-organizing field of influence 69 00:02:51,660 --> 00:02:49,959 perhaps an energetic field of 70 00:02:53,370 --> 00:02:51,670 information that has a certain set of 71 00:02:55,260 --> 00:02:53,380 characteristics we've heard over the 72 00:02:58,140 --> 00:02:55,270 course of the conference that's that's 73 00:03:00,449 --> 00:02:58,150 imprinted all to certain objects that it 74 00:03:03,390 --> 00:03:00,459 passively influences perhaps with no 75 00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:03,400 participant for it required and it 76 00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:07,330 affects across a distance non locally 77 00:03:12,390 --> 00:03:10,090 there are some distinct challenges in 78 00:03:16,530 --> 00:03:12,400 researching subtle energy as we know as 79 00:03:18,840 --> 00:03:16,540 it defies direct measurement today right 80 00:03:20,520 --> 00:03:18,850 and it's detectable only through its 81 00:03:23,190 --> 00:03:20,530 effects in large part through a 82 00:03:24,479 --> 00:03:23,200 transducer we have experimenter effects 83 00:03:25,470 --> 00:03:24,489 that we've talked about we've got 84 00:03:28,199 --> 00:03:25,480 entanglement 85 00:03:30,660 --> 00:03:28,209 so not the easiest thing to research as 86 00:03:32,430 --> 00:03:30,670 we know and in fact to make matters 87 00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:32,440 worse there are some systemic challenges 88 00:03:36,780 --> 00:03:34,810 with subtle energy research we're well 89 00:03:39,600 --> 00:03:36,790 familiar with the lack of funding right 90 00:03:41,580 --> 00:03:39,610 there is no clear focused consensus 91 00:03:43,199 --> 00:03:41,590 roadmap across all of the 92 00:03:44,820 --> 00:03:43,209 multidisciplinary people in the room 93 00:03:47,039 --> 00:03:44,830 right and from a methodological 94 00:03:49,170 --> 00:03:47,049 perspective we really don't have a 95 00:03:50,930 --> 00:03:49,180 consensus approved consistent or a 96 00:03:53,340 --> 00:03:50,940 necessarily highly highly rigorous 97 00:03:55,520 --> 00:03:53,350 approach to studying something as 98 00:03:58,710 --> 00:03:55,530 ethereal as this today right 99 00:04:02,069 --> 00:03:58,720 collaboration transdisciplinary right 100 00:04:05,430 --> 00:04:02,079 perhaps it's it's not what it could be 101 00:04:07,229 --> 00:04:05,440 and from a data perspective we're seeing 102 00:04:09,870 --> 00:04:07,239 in the research relatively few 103 00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:09,880 quantitative outcomes right perhaps no 104 00:04:15,390 --> 00:04:13,090 common standards across educational for 105 00:04:18,420 --> 00:04:15,400 healers and the like or even subtle 106 00:04:20,190 --> 00:04:18,430 energy devices and then when it comes to 107 00:04:22,560 --> 00:04:20,200 language in lexicon we've heard this at 108 00:04:24,390 --> 00:04:22,570 least half a dozen times right what 109 00:04:26,310 --> 00:04:24,400 we're doing with our language can be 110 00:04:30,390 --> 00:04:26,320 confusing internally as well as 111 00:04:34,580 --> 00:04:30,400 externally so there's increasingly said 112 00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:34,590 of entrepreneurs corporate researchers 113 00:04:39,960 --> 00:04:36,610 businesspeople funders from other 114 00:04:43,730 --> 00:04:39,970 domains that have a sincere interest 115 00:04:46,980 --> 00:04:43,740 in helping move this space forward and 116 00:04:48,810 --> 00:04:46,990 after having left you know my corporate 117 00:04:50,730 --> 00:04:48,820 environment I used to run global R&D at 118 00:04:53,250 --> 00:04:50,740 a large software company been a venture 119 00:04:56,070 --> 00:04:53,260 capitalist for about a decade and a 120 00:04:58,020 --> 00:04:56,080 multi-time entrepreneur after that 121 00:05:00,150 --> 00:04:58,030 experience with Russell Targ and how put 122 00:05:02,040 --> 00:05:00,160 off I came back many decades later to 123 00:05:05,610 --> 00:05:02,050 take the close look at indeed what has 124 00:05:09,420 --> 00:05:05,620 progressed and honestly we had ever more 125 00:05:11,430 --> 00:05:09,430 robust a set of evidence around all of 126 00:05:13,410 --> 00:05:11,440 these effects and that we're missing key 127 00:05:16,200 --> 00:05:13,420 pieces you know in this Western 128 00:05:19,380 --> 00:05:16,210 scientific worldview but not all that 129 00:05:20,940 --> 00:05:19,390 much had progressed in many ways and so 130 00:05:22,620 --> 00:05:20,950 you know so a number of us are taking a 131 00:05:26,220 --> 00:05:22,630 look at this and saying how can we help 132 00:05:29,250 --> 00:05:26,230 perhaps with a Concilium to proach to 133 00:05:30,870 --> 00:05:29,260 lean in and perhaps further accelerate 134 00:05:32,820 --> 00:05:30,880 the progress in the space so when it 135 00:05:34,620 --> 00:05:32,830 comes to each of these issues you know 136 00:05:36,840 --> 00:05:34,630 funding what is the prototypical 137 00:05:39,330 --> 00:05:36,850 entrepreneurial approach right that may 138 00:05:42,390 --> 00:05:39,340 be beneficial typically what we do is 139 00:05:44,730 --> 00:05:42,400 milestone gated funding enter with a 140 00:05:48,060 --> 00:05:44,740 clear hypothesis and scale as we 141 00:05:50,100 --> 00:05:48,070 validate hypotheses and reduce risk from 142 00:05:52,380 --> 00:05:50,110 a focus perspective we start with a set 143 00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:52,390 of pilot projects and move then quickly 144 00:05:56,460 --> 00:05:54,970 beyond theoretical to applied in 145 00:05:58,409 --> 00:05:56,470 practical applications we've heard a lot 146 00:06:00,450 --> 00:05:58,419 about that over the course of this past 147 00:06:02,940 --> 00:06:00,460 half week and then we typically do a 148 00:06:04,830 --> 00:06:02,950 detailed design up front and only then 149 00:06:07,020 --> 00:06:04,840 look to build and scale looking to 150 00:06:09,810 --> 00:06:07,030 remove the the the largest risk first on 151 00:06:11,790 --> 00:06:09,820 the cheapest capital and then from a 152 00:06:14,070 --> 00:06:11,800 methodological perspective iterate 153 00:06:17,190 --> 00:06:14,080 iterative testing for validation looking 154 00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:17,200 to systematically remove risk and with 155 00:06:22,620 --> 00:06:19,930 the premium on speed of learning right 156 00:06:25,770 --> 00:06:22,630 how do we progress and almost parse down 157 00:06:28,440 --> 00:06:25,780 this tree of unknowns at a relatively 158 00:06:30,150 --> 00:06:28,450 quick clip and a lot of this is truly 159 00:06:32,490 --> 00:06:30,160 about pattern recognition synthesis 160 00:06:35,159 --> 00:06:32,500 which is why this Concilium theme has 161 00:06:37,920 --> 00:06:35,169 been so fascinating to me by way of 162 00:06:39,659 --> 00:06:37,930 collaboration everything we do in the 163 00:06:41,520 --> 00:06:39,669 entrepreneurial world is with a 164 00:06:43,890 --> 00:06:41,530 multidisciplinary team of specialists in 165 00:06:46,080 --> 00:06:43,900 fact the outcomes are directly a 166 00:06:50,969 --> 00:06:46,090 function of the diversity in the room 167 00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:50,979 and from a data perspective we're 168 00:06:53,790 --> 00:06:53,050 typically in search of hard endpoints 169 00:06:55,680 --> 00:06:53,800 right 170 00:06:57,990 --> 00:06:55,690 - clearly collaborate it clearly 171 00:06:59,670 --> 00:06:58,000 calibrate outcomes we're looking to 172 00:07:01,590 --> 00:06:59,680 understand the broader system and the 173 00:07:03,719 --> 00:07:01,600 broader system dynamic in other words 174 00:07:05,909 --> 00:07:03,729 what are the drivers and key mechanisms 175 00:07:08,610 --> 00:07:05,919 in the system and we focus on the 176 00:07:10,140 --> 00:07:08,620 outliers not unlike everybody in the 177 00:07:11,430 --> 00:07:10,150 room we're looking at the edge science 178 00:07:14,070 --> 00:07:11,440 because we believe that is the most 179 00:07:16,340 --> 00:07:14,080 interesting aspect to explore and 180 00:07:18,690 --> 00:07:16,350 frankly it also you know it also 181 00:07:20,880 --> 00:07:18,700 indicates quite an information asymmetry 182 00:07:22,980 --> 00:07:20,890 right which is always interest 183 00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:22,990 interesting to you know entrepreneurs 184 00:07:29,010 --> 00:07:27,010 and indeed what entrepreneurs do is we 185 00:07:31,200 --> 00:07:29,020 pioneer new markets oftentimes by 186 00:07:33,270 --> 00:07:31,210 shifting a worldview or a perspective 187 00:07:35,130 --> 00:07:33,280 right this gets to the language in 188 00:07:37,140 --> 00:07:35,140 lexicon issue and sometimes that 189 00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:37,150 involves messaging and positioning 190 00:07:42,060 --> 00:07:39,490 reframing for people in essence what 191 00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:42,070 we're talking about so what we'll be 192 00:07:45,659 --> 00:07:43,570 talking about over the course this 193 00:07:47,750 --> 00:07:45,669 afternoon is you know really platform 194 00:07:49,860 --> 00:07:47,760 for investment to further research 195 00:07:51,750 --> 00:07:49,870 having asked the question how can we 196 00:07:54,270 --> 00:07:51,760 help right and has a clarity focus 197 00:07:56,580 --> 00:07:54,280 exclusively supporting frontier science 198 00:07:58,350 --> 00:07:56,590 as a non-profit foundation structure 199 00:08:00,690 --> 00:07:58,360 established to continue in a 200 00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:00,700 self-sustaining way and continue to grow 201 00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:03,010 in perpetuity to be able to take on the 202 00:08:09,510 --> 00:08:06,250 multi decade you know level questions 203 00:08:12,120 --> 00:08:09,520 that we're asking ourselves and entirely 204 00:08:14,940 --> 00:08:12,130 independent with no particular agenda 205 00:08:17,520 --> 00:08:14,950 aside from the furthering of the of 206 00:08:19,500 --> 00:08:17,530 knowledge we'll be taking an iterative 207 00:08:21,900 --> 00:08:19,510 research and an invention approach 208 00:08:24,839 --> 00:08:21,910 looking to leverage a wide diversity of 209 00:08:28,710 --> 00:08:24,849 people across the multi disciplinary set 210 00:08:31,409 --> 00:08:28,720 of arenas and everything we do will be 211 00:08:33,329 --> 00:08:31,419 at this stage with partners partnering 212 00:08:35,610 --> 00:08:33,339 with the best individual researchers as 213 00:08:37,500 --> 00:08:35,620 well as universities and we will be 214 00:08:40,110 --> 00:08:37,510 absolutely systematic very rigorous 215 00:08:42,360 --> 00:08:40,120 outcomes focused right with fundamental 216 00:08:45,440 --> 00:08:42,370 and applied research looking to validate 217 00:08:47,970 --> 00:08:45,450 truly as a notion that consciousness is 218 00:08:50,040 --> 00:08:47,980 foundational and integrative to 219 00:08:53,460 --> 00:08:50,050 conventionalist materials material 220 00:08:55,800 --> 00:08:53,470 science we think people matter there are 221 00:08:57,630 --> 00:08:55,810 I'm sure many industrial applications we 222 00:09:00,030 --> 00:08:57,640 will start with you know looking to make 223 00:09:02,460 --> 00:09:00,040 an impact on humans in ways that make a 224 00:09:04,130 --> 00:09:02,470 difference in their lives and any time 225 00:09:06,110 --> 00:09:04,140 that we talk about practical out 226 00:09:08,480 --> 00:09:06,120 locations it's really important to talk 227 00:09:11,030 --> 00:09:08,490 about ethical implications because some 228 00:09:12,830 --> 00:09:11,040 of these topics are so fascinating I'm 229 00:09:15,230 --> 00:09:12,840 an engineer are so technically 230 00:09:17,660 --> 00:09:15,240 fascinating that we could end up at some 231 00:09:19,280 --> 00:09:17,670 point not unlike an Oppenheimer when he 232 00:09:21,560 --> 00:09:19,290 witnessed the explosion of you know the 233 00:09:23,810 --> 00:09:21,570 atomic bomb right and then you regret 234 00:09:25,610 --> 00:09:23,820 the unintended consequences so I think 235 00:09:28,610 --> 00:09:25,620 it's really important to think at that 236 00:09:31,280 --> 00:09:28,620 level as well and this platform that 237 00:09:33,350 --> 00:09:31,290 we're we're launching we believe it has 238 00:09:35,330 --> 00:09:33,360 the ability to extend even into other 239 00:09:38,450 --> 00:09:35,340 areas over time multiple mechanisms 240 00:09:41,230 --> 00:09:38,460 whether it be the licensing of IP where 241 00:09:43,970 --> 00:09:41,240 we have robustly validated outcomes 242 00:09:47,180 --> 00:09:43,980 through the research perhaps commercial 243 00:09:49,480 --> 00:09:47,190 incubation of new industries perhaps to 244 00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:49,490 launch a subtle energy economy right 245 00:09:55,130 --> 00:09:53,370 platform level ecosystem support so we 246 00:09:56,780 --> 00:09:55,140 touched upon you know the lack of 247 00:09:59,600 --> 00:09:56,790 standardization with subtle energy 248 00:10:02,210 --> 00:09:59,610 devices what would it look like to have 249 00:10:04,010 --> 00:10:02,220 an underwriters labs of subtle energy 250 00:10:07,040 --> 00:10:04,020 devices to truly separate the wheat from 251 00:10:08,570 --> 00:10:07,050 the chaff right venture capital funding 252 00:10:10,910 --> 00:10:08,580 is something that we know well and 253 00:10:13,250 --> 00:10:10,920 capital markets as well to the extent 254 00:10:15,320 --> 00:10:13,260 that we we need to tap that we believe 255 00:10:18,290 --> 00:10:15,330 given the languaging that we discussed 256 00:10:20,510 --> 00:10:18,300 Public Relation and policy lobbying will 257 00:10:23,750 --> 00:10:20,520 also be at some point an important 258 00:10:26,690 --> 00:10:23,760 aspect so what are the implications for 259 00:10:29,470 --> 00:10:26,700 all of us you know if we do this if we 260 00:10:32,060 --> 00:10:29,480 do this right is it indeed possible to 261 00:10:32,960 --> 00:10:32,070 legitimize you know frontier science 262 00:10:34,670 --> 00:10:32,970 some of the things we've been talking 263 00:10:36,770 --> 00:10:34,680 about and actually bring that 264 00:10:38,450 --> 00:10:36,780 expediently into the scientific Canon 265 00:10:40,900 --> 00:10:38,460 you know many of the things we're 266 00:10:43,880 --> 00:10:40,910 working on we know deeply and 267 00:10:45,530 --> 00:10:43,890 experientially but they're not 268 00:10:47,360 --> 00:10:45,540 represented at all in our science today 269 00:10:49,610 --> 00:10:47,370 what would what would the blending of 270 00:10:51,230 --> 00:10:49,620 science and spirituality look like you 271 00:10:53,690 --> 00:10:51,240 know what would it mean to usher in a 272 00:10:56,150 --> 00:10:53,700 new paradigm of science and perhaps an 273 00:10:58,070 --> 00:10:56,160 attendant set of truly different 274 00:10:59,810 --> 00:10:58,080 methodologies that are required to study 275 00:11:02,000 --> 00:10:59,820 something as strange as the things that 276 00:11:04,190 --> 00:11:02,010 we've been discussing right what if we 277 00:11:06,560 --> 00:11:04,200 would have able to to seat a post 278 00:11:09,500 --> 00:11:06,570 materialist worldview right one that 279 00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:09,510 perhaps is deeply interconnected right 280 00:11:15,140 --> 00:11:12,810 and brings brings meaning through this 281 00:11:17,480 --> 00:11:15,150 new awareness and direct experience 282 00:11:18,769 --> 00:11:17,490 understanding that so many so many 283 00:11:21,290 --> 00:11:18,779 look out I mean I look at some of the 284 00:11:23,449 --> 00:11:21,300 crises in today's world and I think that 285 00:11:26,750 --> 00:11:23,459 appears to be a crisis of consciousness 286 00:11:28,820 --> 00:11:26,760 among other things and I think perhaps a 287 00:11:30,620 --> 00:11:28,830 shift in human values toward deeper 288 00:11:32,540 --> 00:11:30,630 meaning and connectivity may be 289 00:11:33,949 --> 00:11:32,550 something that we all aspire toward and 290 00:11:35,750 --> 00:11:33,959 perhaps the work that we're all doing in 291 00:11:38,620 --> 00:11:35,760 this room you know may help lead in that 292 00:11:41,660 --> 00:11:38,630 direction now I started this journey 293 00:11:43,160 --> 00:11:41,670 about four years ago after being in the 294 00:11:45,470 --> 00:11:43,170 corporate world for many years and 295 00:11:47,389 --> 00:11:45,480 coming back and looking at it mad icky 296 00:11:48,829 --> 00:11:47,399 as a Greek word it's one of those words 297 00:11:50,750 --> 00:11:48,839 that exists only in one language in this 298 00:11:52,310 --> 00:11:50,760 case Greek and meta key means doing 299 00:11:56,269 --> 00:11:52,320 something purely for the love of it 300 00:11:58,460 --> 00:11:56,279 right and so the objective of some of my 301 00:12:00,650 --> 00:11:58,470 research that I've been involved in with 302 00:12:02,930 --> 00:12:00,660 dr. tiller and the like has been you 303 00:12:04,990 --> 00:12:02,940 know how do we accelerate a human shift 304 00:12:07,280 --> 00:12:05,000 in consciousness how do we uh sure in 305 00:12:10,070 --> 00:12:07,290 acceptance of such subtle energy effects 306 00:12:12,769 --> 00:12:10,080 right I rail against the notion that we 307 00:12:15,199 --> 00:12:12,779 are you know apathetic observers in a 308 00:12:16,730 --> 00:12:15,209 mechanistic world right but rather I 309 00:12:18,889 --> 00:12:16,740 personally believe we're active 310 00:12:20,960 --> 00:12:18,899 co-creators right in a purposeful 311 00:12:22,970 --> 00:12:20,970 meaningful universe and as a result 312 00:12:25,370 --> 00:12:22,980 we've held a high bar when it comes to 313 00:12:27,410 --> 00:12:25,380 the research indeed following the 314 00:12:29,600 --> 00:12:27,420 scientific method which we believe in 315 00:12:31,069 --> 00:12:29,610 firmly but focusing on these at home 316 00:12:33,110 --> 00:12:31,079 anomaly is it fall outside of the 317 00:12:35,150 --> 00:12:33,120 current paradigm that we believe will 318 00:12:37,819 --> 00:12:35,160 help us usher in perhaps that next 319 00:12:39,620 --> 00:12:37,829 paradigm so by way of example one of 320 00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:39,630 these projects we started a number of 321 00:12:43,850 --> 00:12:41,970 years ago doctor tiller he has a 322 00:12:44,990 --> 00:12:43,860 particular device some of you are 323 00:12:47,120 --> 00:12:45,000 familiar with it because I've seen it on 324 00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:47,130 prior slides the intention host device 325 00:12:53,150 --> 00:12:50,010 right it is a device or city level 326 00:12:54,740 --> 00:12:53,160 meditators imprint and intention on this 327 00:12:57,139 --> 00:12:54,750 physical device and then it can be 328 00:13:00,050 --> 00:12:57,149 broadcasted to named individuals at 329 00:13:01,760 --> 00:13:00,060 physical addresses we've done you know 330 00:13:03,889 --> 00:13:01,770 work with about a thousand people three 331 00:13:09,680 --> 00:13:03,899 pilot studies over time here I'm talking 332 00:13:12,079 --> 00:13:09,690 about a IRB sanctioned FDA exempted 333 00:13:13,699 --> 00:13:12,089 double-blind crossover study placebo 334 00:13:17,870 --> 00:13:13,709 controlled study with 200 participants 335 00:13:19,960 --> 00:13:17,880 over 18 months and the objective was to 336 00:13:23,690 --> 00:13:19,970 broadcast a health and wellness 337 00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:23,700 intention to them our our audience was 338 00:13:29,030 --> 00:13:26,250 global and we had a couple hypotheses 339 00:13:30,569 --> 00:13:29,040 one that those were unaware of the study 340 00:13:33,119 --> 00:13:30,579 and receiving no and 341 00:13:35,129 --> 00:13:33,129 Inchon would not change at all secondly 342 00:13:37,079 --> 00:13:35,139 that those that were receiving this 343 00:13:39,840 --> 00:13:37,089 intentionally intention non-locally 344 00:13:41,220 --> 00:13:39,850 would show improvement finally those not 345 00:13:43,289 --> 00:13:41,230 receiving the intention would show no 346 00:13:45,989 --> 00:13:43,299 improvement and the gains would be 347 00:13:47,669 --> 00:13:45,999 sustained and maintained after the 348 00:13:50,850 --> 00:13:47,679 broadcast was stopped so I was actually 349 00:13:54,359 --> 00:13:50,860 just chatting with dr. Paul mils of UCSD 350 00:13:55,979 --> 00:13:54,369 who is our secondary investigator about 351 00:13:58,710 --> 00:13:55,989 the results earlier and it turns out 352 00:14:01,139 --> 00:13:58,720 indeed this control that was entirely 353 00:14:03,329 --> 00:14:01,149 separated and no conscious entanglement 354 00:14:05,460 --> 00:14:03,339 they said in essence flatlined 355 00:14:08,549 --> 00:14:05,470 right and there was highly statistically 356 00:14:09,809 --> 00:14:08,559 significant improvement at point you 357 00:14:12,929 --> 00:14:09,819 know p-value zero point zero zero one 358 00:14:14,660 --> 00:14:12,939 zero zero four across you know the Neff 359 00:14:18,749 --> 00:14:14,670 self compassion inventory and the NIH 360 00:14:20,100 --> 00:14:18,759 health and wellness mechanisms and it 361 00:14:21,809 --> 00:14:20,110 turns out that there was a significant 362 00:14:23,220 --> 00:14:21,819 moderation effect for years of 363 00:14:25,590 --> 00:14:23,230 meditation experience in other words 364 00:14:27,809 --> 00:14:25,600 those folks started higher on the 365 00:14:29,460 --> 00:14:27,819 calibration scale and progressed less 366 00:14:32,669 --> 00:14:29,470 than others which i think is quite 367 00:14:36,179 --> 00:14:32,679 interesting one conundrum is that in 368 00:14:38,189 --> 00:14:36,189 this crossover design it appeared that 369 00:14:40,079 --> 00:14:38,199 both those that started in the control 370 00:14:42,419 --> 00:14:40,089 group with the first six months of the 371 00:14:43,439 --> 00:14:42,429 study and those that ended up within the 372 00:14:45,449 --> 00:14:43,449 control group in other words 373 00:14:49,229 --> 00:14:45,459 non-broadcast for the last six months of 374 00:14:51,269 --> 00:14:49,239 the study both of those groups did quite 375 00:14:55,739 --> 00:14:51,279 similarly right and now we're digging 376 00:14:57,419 --> 00:14:55,749 into the data why might that be during 377 00:14:59,579 --> 00:14:57,429 this period of time and over the past 378 00:15:01,199 --> 00:14:59,589 four years the Emerald Gate foundation 379 00:15:03,629 --> 00:15:01,209 has also been investing and frankly in 380 00:15:06,210 --> 00:15:03,639 many of the researchers in the room and 381 00:15:08,249 --> 00:15:06,220 in fact it's funded by a very successful 382 00:15:10,829 --> 00:15:08,259 businessman investor who is with us 383 00:15:12,929 --> 00:15:10,839 today in the room and this is one of his 384 00:15:14,759 --> 00:15:12,939 philanthropic efforts well Emerald Gate 385 00:15:18,119 --> 00:15:14,769 Foundation invests in a variety of areas 386 00:15:19,799 --> 00:15:18,129 as a nonprofit Enterprise focused on the 387 00:15:22,079 --> 00:15:19,809 improvement of human condition and 388 00:15:24,539 --> 00:15:22,089 expansion of conscious mind through 389 00:15:25,530 --> 00:15:24,549 enlightenment at the individual and the 390 00:15:29,280 --> 00:15:25,540 community level 391 00:15:31,530 --> 00:15:29,290 the primary mission and focus of the 392 00:15:33,900 --> 00:15:31,540 foundation is really to lead state of 393 00:15:36,419 --> 00:15:33,910 state-of-the-art research and overtime 394 00:15:37,829 --> 00:15:36,429 commercialization as necessary of the 395 00:15:39,449 --> 00:15:37,839 types of frontier science that we've 396 00:15:41,699 --> 00:15:39,459 been talking about in an integrated 397 00:15:44,040 --> 00:15:41,709 relational way across a variety of 398 00:15:47,610 --> 00:15:44,050 fields like biology physics conscious 399 00:15:50,970 --> 00:15:47,620 and energy fields and so the objective 400 00:15:53,220 --> 00:15:50,980 really is arising from you know the need 401 00:15:55,949 --> 00:15:53,230 to understand the mechanism by which 402 00:15:58,380 --> 00:15:55,959 human conscious intention interacts with 403 00:16:00,780 --> 00:15:58,390 various forms of subtle energy and 404 00:16:02,699 --> 00:16:00,790 influences biology to promote healing 405 00:16:05,759 --> 00:16:02,709 and well-being and violet biological 406 00:16:07,949 --> 00:16:05,769 systems principally as a start now there 407 00:16:10,259 --> 00:16:07,959 are three fundamental goals first to 408 00:16:12,840 --> 00:16:10,269 regularly rigorously advance and bridge 409 00:16:15,480 --> 00:16:12,850 the scientific understanding of our 410 00:16:17,759 --> 00:16:15,490 mainstream science with the benefit of 411 00:16:20,160 --> 00:16:17,769 demonstrated demonstrated alternative 412 00:16:22,319 --> 00:16:20,170 forms of healing secondly how do we 413 00:16:24,840 --> 00:16:22,329 apply this advancement and this 414 00:16:26,639 --> 00:16:24,850 understanding to the health and 415 00:16:28,710 --> 00:16:26,649 well-being of individuals and others 416 00:16:30,750 --> 00:16:28,720 impacting real humans and then finally 417 00:16:33,930 --> 00:16:30,760 how do we raise the awareness of our 418 00:16:36,300 --> 00:16:33,940 base the basis and true nature as as a 419 00:16:37,860 --> 00:16:36,310 humanity really truly based on 420 00:16:41,490 --> 00:16:37,870 consciousness right 421 00:16:43,680 --> 00:16:41,500 and so this platform indeed will involve 422 00:16:46,139 --> 00:16:43,690 integrated research directed research 423 00:16:49,470 --> 00:16:46,149 focused on a particular scientific 424 00:16:51,600 --> 00:16:49,480 paradigm and really investing in and 425 00:16:52,949 --> 00:16:51,610 working closely in partnership with 426 00:16:56,370 --> 00:16:52,959 best-in-class individuals and 427 00:16:58,319 --> 00:16:56,380 universities on a global basis the good 428 00:17:00,210 --> 00:16:58,329 news about it it that is that it is a 429 00:17:02,519 --> 00:17:00,220 reliable long-term and growing source of 430 00:17:04,860 --> 00:17:02,529 institutional capital right therefore 431 00:17:07,860 --> 00:17:04,870 it's well positioned to support directed 432 00:17:09,689 --> 00:17:07,870 and sustained programs for decades which 433 00:17:12,179 --> 00:17:09,699 is I think what we need and has the 434 00:17:14,040 --> 00:17:12,189 ability to do so in perpetuity so that 435 00:17:16,439 --> 00:17:14,050 we can ask these multi-deck decade-long 436 00:17:19,049 --> 00:17:16,449 questions which will take that level of 437 00:17:20,699 --> 00:17:19,059 persistence to resolve now you're 438 00:17:23,880 --> 00:17:20,709 familiar with our friend bill we've 439 00:17:26,040 --> 00:17:23,890 heard quite a bit about his project so I 440 00:17:28,380 --> 00:17:26,050 won't belabor this but in the end it's 441 00:17:30,450 --> 00:17:28,390 focused on his Bankston healing 442 00:17:33,299 --> 00:17:30,460 technique how does it affect tumor 443 00:17:34,770 --> 00:17:33,309 growth in mice what is the way that we 444 00:17:36,120 --> 00:17:34,780 can understand the mechanism of this 445 00:17:38,220 --> 00:17:36,130 technique and finally can we 446 00:17:41,010 --> 00:17:38,230 reverse-engineer it to make it scalable 447 00:17:43,530 --> 00:17:41,020 and application and as you can see dean 448 00:17:44,909 --> 00:17:43,540 radin and cerebus IAM mike turner john 449 00:17:47,310 --> 00:17:44,919 with michael have also been 450 00:17:49,950 --> 00:17:47,320 participating with a set of healers and 451 00:17:51,659 --> 00:17:49,960 a set of experiments one of the findings 452 00:17:54,680 --> 00:17:51,669 is that there is resonant bonding among 453 00:17:56,570 --> 00:17:54,690 the among the mice right 454 00:17:59,240 --> 00:17:56,580 as a function of shared experience 455 00:18:02,840 --> 00:17:59,250 secondly the consciousness in particular 456 00:18:05,120 --> 00:18:02,850 of the experimenter can decide who is in 457 00:18:09,799 --> 00:18:05,130 quote-unquote in and out of the study 458 00:18:12,799 --> 00:18:09,809 and that hands-on healing distant 459 00:18:15,289 --> 00:18:12,809 healing and a recording quote-unquote 460 00:18:18,049 --> 00:18:15,299 recording of the healing all of these 461 00:18:20,330 --> 00:18:18,059 things have biologic outcomes right and 462 00:18:22,970 --> 00:18:20,340 so you know what was been measured in 463 00:18:24,799 --> 00:18:22,980 the mice were really hematologic values 464 00:18:28,520 --> 00:18:24,809 and spleen weight in vitro studies of 465 00:18:30,350 --> 00:18:28,530 cancers tumor growth and indeed you know 466 00:18:33,080 --> 00:18:30,360 some publications like dose-response 467 00:18:35,029 --> 00:18:33,090 have indicated biologic changes as a 468 00:18:37,580 --> 00:18:35,039 result of the hands-on healing and 469 00:18:39,020 --> 00:18:37,590 recording secondly the healing intention 470 00:18:41,299 --> 00:18:39,030 as I mentioned can be recorded and 471 00:18:44,810 --> 00:18:41,309 broadcast some similar parallels to the 472 00:18:46,970 --> 00:18:44,820 tiller work and it turns out that the 473 00:18:48,830 --> 00:18:46,980 recording appears to have a loss of 474 00:18:52,010 --> 00:18:48,840 fidelity in that it's less efficacious 475 00:18:53,539 --> 00:18:52,020 for whatever reason and there's also 476 00:18:56,360 --> 00:18:53,549 been some anomalous healing as well 477 00:18:58,610 --> 00:18:56,370 which has implications for our placebo 478 00:18:59,930 --> 00:18:58,620 research and how we think about type 2 479 00:19:03,260 --> 00:18:59,940 errors in fact there's a very 480 00:19:04,700 --> 00:19:03,270 interesting conference coming up that 481 00:19:07,340 --> 00:19:04,710 our friend Bruce Fetzer is putting on 482 00:19:09,470 --> 00:19:07,350 the meta science conference at Stanford 483 00:19:11,840 --> 00:19:09,480 in September where we will be looking 484 00:19:13,850 --> 00:19:11,850 through scientific lens at our science 485 00:19:15,350 --> 00:19:13,860 right there decline effects there are a 486 00:19:17,390 --> 00:19:15,360 whole set of effects that are occurring 487 00:19:19,220 --> 00:19:17,400 across industry whether pharmaceutical 488 00:19:21,020 --> 00:19:19,230 or otherwise that simply need to be 489 00:19:24,080 --> 00:19:21,030 looked at by way of method methodology 490 00:19:28,159 --> 00:19:24,090 as we study these things so in terms of 491 00:19:31,039 --> 00:19:28,169 what's next the analysis of the healing 492 00:19:33,230 --> 00:19:31,049 recording and we're seeing anomalies at 493 00:19:35,510 --> 00:19:33,240 very low frequencies and perhaps there 494 00:19:37,250 --> 00:19:35,520 are clinical applications perhaps over 495 00:19:39,740 --> 00:19:37,260 time targeted toward cancer or 496 00:19:42,470 --> 00:19:39,750 Alzheimer's I'm gonna touch upon a 497 00:19:44,149 --> 00:19:42,480 couple other studies as well we have 498 00:19:48,680 --> 00:19:44,159 started a program with Garrett Yount 499 00:19:51,169 --> 00:19:48,690 Helen a Dean Delorme and Lauren 500 00:19:52,730 --> 00:19:51,179 carpenter to really explore objective 501 00:19:54,710 --> 00:19:52,740 ways to measure shifts during subtle 502 00:19:56,600 --> 00:19:54,720 energy healing others also what is the 503 00:19:58,250 --> 00:19:56,610 mechanism of action in the human body as 504 00:20:01,909 --> 00:19:58,260 a function of working with twelve 505 00:20:05,020 --> 00:20:01,919 exceptional healers 240 studies 240 506 00:20:07,770 --> 00:20:05,030 subjects with neuropathy in essence pain 507 00:20:09,210 --> 00:20:07,780 super sensitivity or numbness 508 00:20:11,970 --> 00:20:09,220 doing this over the course of six months 509 00:20:15,540 --> 00:20:11,980 looking directly at pain and 510 00:20:17,640 --> 00:20:15,550 inflammation and how that decreases and 511 00:20:19,920 --> 00:20:17,650 in particular looking at both subjective 512 00:20:22,890 --> 00:20:19,930 and objective outcomes across stress 513 00:20:25,110 --> 00:20:22,900 well-being physiology through 514 00:20:26,940 --> 00:20:25,120 questionnaires biomarkers environmental 515 00:20:29,220 --> 00:20:26,950 measures we've got both healers and 516 00:20:31,230 --> 00:20:29,230 Healy's instrumented as well as the 517 00:20:33,570 --> 00:20:31,240 environment instrumented and we're also 518 00:20:36,300 --> 00:20:33,580 using mineral water as a proxy for an 519 00:20:38,820 --> 00:20:36,310 objective measurement baseline across 520 00:20:41,540 --> 00:20:38,830 these healings and we're collecting both 521 00:20:43,380 --> 00:20:41,550 before during and after the sessions 522 00:20:44,910 --> 00:20:43,390 finally I'd like to tell you about 523 00:20:47,580 --> 00:20:44,920 something that we're doing which is 524 00:20:50,490 --> 00:20:47,590 quite a conciliatory and we'd love your 525 00:20:51,840 --> 00:20:50,500 collaboration and we've enlisted a 526 00:20:54,030 --> 00:20:51,850 number of people that used to be at the 527 00:20:57,210 --> 00:20:54,040 Samwell E Institute the organization Chi 528 00:20:59,940 --> 00:20:57,220 you know with David Newsome hominid Jane 529 00:21:02,130 --> 00:20:59,950 and Meredith's Pringle really to figure 530 00:21:04,260 --> 00:21:02,140 out how can we further the science and 531 00:21:06,900 --> 00:21:04,270 practice of this subtle energy bio field 532 00:21:08,610 --> 00:21:06,910 research by looking a crop across the 533 00:21:10,320 --> 00:21:08,620 landscape of constituents and figuring 534 00:21:12,600 --> 00:21:10,330 out what are the pressure points in the 535 00:21:14,550 --> 00:21:12,610 in this ecosystem what are the optimal 536 00:21:16,430 --> 00:21:14,560 synergies across stakeholders and how do 537 00:21:18,780 --> 00:21:16,440 we create not only a research database 538 00:21:21,120 --> 00:21:18,790 but also perhaps a systems change 539 00:21:22,980 --> 00:21:21,130 roadmap for public use in other words 540 00:21:24,960 --> 00:21:22,990 the use of everybody in this room how do 541 00:21:27,090 --> 00:21:24,970 we foster increased collaboration so 542 00:21:29,160 --> 00:21:27,100 we're starting with a stocktaking effort 543 00:21:31,380 --> 00:21:29,170 screening a set of tens of thousands of 544 00:21:32,820 --> 00:21:31,390 publications to get a research baseline 545 00:21:35,010 --> 00:21:32,830 what do we know what do we not know 546 00:21:36,240 --> 00:21:35,020 what's a credible hypothesis what's yet 547 00:21:38,070 --> 00:21:36,250 been invalidated 548 00:21:40,170 --> 00:21:38,080 so quite systematic and there were also 549 00:21:42,600 --> 00:21:40,180 interviewing researchers healers funders 550 00:21:44,850 --> 00:21:42,610 device experts policy experts and we'd 551 00:21:47,220 --> 00:21:44,860 love for some of the researchers in the 552 00:21:48,480 --> 00:21:47,230 room to participate so we're about a 553 00:21:51,960 --> 00:21:48,490 third of the way through the six month 554 00:21:54,570 --> 00:21:51,970 effort talk to many researchers that are 555 00:21:56,910 --> 00:21:54,580 currently researching subtle energy said 556 00:21:58,500 --> 00:21:56,920 you know we've identified 300 by field 557 00:22:00,960 --> 00:21:58,510 devices and we've screened and 558 00:22:02,730 --> 00:22:00,970 categorized them a set of bio field 559 00:22:04,770 --> 00:22:02,740 healers a set of funders we've 560 00:22:07,020 --> 00:22:04,780 identified and then other policy 561 00:22:08,700 --> 00:22:07,030 education and community members that are 562 00:22:10,410 --> 00:22:08,710 strategically relevant so I'm just gonna 563 00:22:12,420 --> 00:22:10,420 give you a quick snapshot of some of the 564 00:22:14,070 --> 00:22:12,430 takeaways to date so we've looked you 565 00:22:16,440 --> 00:22:14,080 know the great news is there are there's 566 00:22:19,530 --> 00:22:16,450 abundance of pertinent research over the 567 00:22:20,850 --> 00:22:19,540 past many decades turns out to perhaps 568 00:22:21,510 --> 00:22:20,860 the nobody's surprise people are not 569 00:22:23,250 --> 00:22:21,520 publishing 570 00:22:24,780 --> 00:22:23,260 by a fielder subtle energy so we are 571 00:22:27,480 --> 00:22:24,790 literally looking across two dozen 572 00:22:29,790 --> 00:22:27,490 different different domains if you will 573 00:22:32,430 --> 00:22:29,800 very few clinical trials in this area 574 00:22:33,750 --> 00:22:32,440 but published published recently and the 575 00:22:36,630 --> 00:22:33,760 clinical trials that have been done are 576 00:22:39,510 --> 00:22:36,640 in adequately powered also too few 577 00:22:42,170 --> 00:22:39,520 longitudinal studies and too few that 578 00:22:44,490 --> 00:22:42,180 incorporate the perspective of healers 579 00:22:46,530 --> 00:22:44,500 when we chat with the researchers 580 00:22:48,630 --> 00:22:46,540 fascinating things come out many 581 00:22:50,970 --> 00:22:48,640 researchers are involved in this work 582 00:22:53,070 --> 00:22:50,980 because of personal experiences right 583 00:22:55,260 --> 00:22:53,080 and they will be the first to say wow 584 00:22:57,540 --> 00:22:55,270 there's still a taboo so mainstream 585 00:23:00,060 --> 00:22:57,550 researchers are active in the work and 586 00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:00,070 but they're not interested in publishing 587 00:23:05,580 --> 00:23:03,010 or openly discussing tenured professors 588 00:23:08,130 --> 00:23:05,590 wanna assist but they won't be included 589 00:23:09,870 --> 00:23:08,140 sometimes on publications and they 590 00:23:11,700 --> 00:23:09,880 emphasize the language indeed needs to 591 00:23:13,920 --> 00:23:11,710 be shifted it's a bridge across bio 592 00:23:15,900 --> 00:23:13,930 fields healing and the language of 593 00:23:19,950 --> 00:23:15,910 academic science and of course funding 594 00:23:22,800 --> 00:23:19,960 is a barrier devices plenty mostly a 595 00:23:25,020 --> 00:23:22,810 cottage industry unfortunately rate 596 00:23:26,970 --> 00:23:25,030 evidence evidence the claims ratio is 597 00:23:29,580 --> 00:23:26,980 low and as a result all these guys get 598 00:23:31,260 --> 00:23:29,590 in trouble with the FTC and the FDA and 599 00:23:33,420 --> 00:23:31,270 there are different theories around how 600 00:23:34,980 --> 00:23:33,430 these work quantum are we fostering 601 00:23:37,920 --> 00:23:34,990 coherence are we harmonizing the body 602 00:23:39,480 --> 00:23:37,930 protected from EMF electrosmog again 603 00:23:41,220 --> 00:23:39,490 we're getting all the anecdotal and 604 00:23:42,680 --> 00:23:41,230 subjective comments because we think 605 00:23:44,910 --> 00:23:42,690 it's really important context 606 00:23:47,280 --> 00:23:44,920 preliminary takeaways from healers are 607 00:23:49,110 --> 00:23:47,290 that people see healing differently some 608 00:23:51,300 --> 00:23:49,120 see it as a multi-layered field some see 609 00:23:52,410 --> 00:23:51,310 it as a unified field others feel it 610 00:23:54,720 --> 00:23:52,420 others see it 611 00:23:57,570 --> 00:23:54,730 others do hands-on other and frankly 612 00:23:59,730 --> 00:23:57,580 most believe distance doesn't matter and 613 00:24:01,620 --> 00:23:59,740 they'll tell us that quite clearly they 614 00:24:04,160 --> 00:24:01,630 see healing as returning to a normal 615 00:24:07,110 --> 00:24:04,170 state as opposed to curing anything and 616 00:24:08,580 --> 00:24:07,120 they encourage acute conditions and 617 00:24:10,590 --> 00:24:08,590 focus on acute conditions like trauma 618 00:24:12,900 --> 00:24:10,600 and pain going forward and perhaps on 619 00:24:14,790 --> 00:24:12,910 you know some somatic disorders that 620 00:24:16,470 --> 00:24:14,800 have immune or hormonal components 621 00:24:18,780 --> 00:24:16,480 there's sort of mystery illnesses in the 622 00:24:20,640 --> 00:24:18,790 western domain so in summary there are a 623 00:24:23,250 --> 00:24:20,650 couple system level needs that have been 624 00:24:24,090 --> 00:24:23,260 identified to date one how do we develop 625 00:24:26,730 --> 00:24:24,100 a common language 626 00:24:28,170 --> 00:24:26,740 no there's internally and externally so 627 00:24:30,420 --> 00:24:28,180 that we can collaborate with others to 628 00:24:32,430 --> 00:24:30,430 how do we nurture and sustain community 629 00:24:34,470 --> 00:24:32,440 I was thrilled to see young researchers 630 00:24:36,390 --> 00:24:34,480 here how do we nurture them how do we 631 00:24:38,490 --> 00:24:36,400 the other develop new methodologies to 632 00:24:40,799 --> 00:24:38,500 study and get multiple perspectives on 633 00:24:42,750 --> 00:24:40,809 healing and then continue to conduct 634 00:24:44,880 --> 00:24:42,760 rigorous research rigorous clinical 635 00:24:46,530 --> 00:24:44,890 trials to share best evidence and then 636 00:24:47,210 --> 00:24:46,540 finally there may be ways to map the 637 00:24:49,620 --> 00:24:47,220 biofield 638 00:24:52,530 --> 00:24:49,630 cross validation studies with the 639 00:24:55,110 --> 00:24:52,540 devices or technologies perhaps looking 640 00:24:58,860 --> 00:24:55,120 at integrative medicine modalities and 641 00:25:01,230 --> 00:24:58,870 so you know in conclusion there are 642 00:25:03,990 --> 00:25:01,240 three areas of focus of Emerald Gate 643 00:25:05,909 --> 00:25:04,000 right now as you can probably tell we 644 00:25:09,419 --> 00:25:05,919 are very interested in what is the 645 00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:09,429 mechanism of subtle energy secondly how 646 00:25:13,830 --> 00:25:12,010 might we measure it fully being willing 647 00:25:15,419 --> 00:25:13,840 to accept that we may never be able to 648 00:25:17,640 --> 00:25:15,429 measure it in our three-dimensional 649 00:25:19,140 --> 00:25:17,650 world and that may be okay as well but 650 00:25:20,820 --> 00:25:19,150 we think it's worth giving a shot and 651 00:25:22,320 --> 00:25:20,830 then finally to the extent we get there 652 00:25:23,549 --> 00:25:22,330 what may be a set of practical 653 00:25:24,870 --> 00:25:23,559 applications that we can get in the 654 00:25:27,600 --> 00:25:24,880 hands of humans that can make a 655 00:25:29,549 --> 00:25:27,610 difference in their lives and so we'd 656 00:25:32,880 --> 00:25:29,559 love your collaboration and in fact 657 00:25:35,240 --> 00:25:32,890 badly needed to the extent that you're 658 00:25:37,830 --> 00:25:35,250 doing something that you believe can be 659 00:25:40,020 --> 00:25:37,840 relevant and assistive to this agenda 660 00:25:43,020 --> 00:25:40,030 please feel free to reach out Jason at 661 00:25:45,659 --> 00:25:43,030 Emerald Gate foundation.org secondarily 662 00:25:47,100 --> 00:25:45,669 Visa IV the system mapping project which 663 00:25:49,590 --> 00:25:47,110 over time will be made public to 664 00:25:51,539 --> 00:25:49,600 everybody there's a subtle energy 665 00:25:53,010 --> 00:25:51,549 researcher survey to the extent you're 666 00:25:54,120 --> 00:25:53,020 involved in the research it's 667 00:25:58,110 --> 00:25:54,130 tinyurl.com 668 00:26:00,270 --> 00:25:58,120 Y 3 X 3 8 3 H 7 and to the extent that 669 00:26:02,310 --> 00:26:00,280 some of these other aspects of the 670 00:26:04,350 --> 00:26:02,320 systems mapping project seem interesting 671 00:26:08,220 --> 00:26:04,360 you can go ahead and email Meredith at 672 00:26:09,450 --> 00:26:08,230 Chi dot is and I understand that we're 673 00:26:11,669 --> 00:26:09,460 running out of time and I will be around 674 00:26:13,200 --> 00:26:11,679 for the break and very much looking 675 00:26:15,730 --> 00:26:13,210 forward to collaborating with you so
