SPIRITUALITY, REIKI, YOGA and the All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS)
NEW DELHI: TNIE, October 2023 :
"Coming soon, the Department of Spiritual Medicine at AIIMS Delhi
AIIMS Delhi issued an order stating that it should create new disciplinary departments in transplant medicine, medical education and spiritual medicine.
The All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) has just formed a committee to recommend a roadmap for a department on spiritual medicine. Sections of the staff and faculty panned the decision, claiming it was deviating from an evidence-based approach. … If the proposal fructifies, AIIMS will become the first government healthcare institute to open a department that is not a branch of modern medicine. Sections of the faculty, however, see it as anti-science. “It’s against scientific temperament and will put this premier health institute in a poor light,” a senior professor said. The institute has been promoting anti-science activities and now it has decided to legitimise it in the form of a department, the professor added. … Dr Rima Dada, AIIMS spokesperson, said the proposal is in a nascent stage. It will take an integrated approach and aid the modern medicine departments. Yoga and Reiki will be part of it. There was, however, no clarity on the faculty who would run the department. She pointed out that the University of Michigan and Yale School of Medicine already have dedicated courses for spirituality in science. The institute is also planning to introduce spirituality in MBBS, according to sources.”
This newspaper report indicates that a TNTRIC had been treating patients in various hospitals including one of Asia's most renowned hospitals in India. Will he be the head of the "Department of TANTRIC MEDICINE in the AIIMS" !!!

What Is Reiki?
"Reiki therapy is a way of guiding energy throughout the body to promote the recipient’s self-healing abilities, according to the National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health (NCCIH). The Reiki belief system and that of the practitioner is that they don’t cause the healing, nor are they the source of that healing energy; they’re a channel for the energy — similar to the way a garden hose acts as a channel for water, according to a past review.
“I’m an open channel, and [the Reiki recipient’s] body takes that energy and does whatever it needs with it,” explains Vickie Bodner, a licensed massage therapist and Reiki master at the Center for Integrative Medicine at Cleveland Clinic in Ohio.
The word “Reiki” is a combination of two Japanese words: “rei,” which means “God’s wisdom,” or “the higher power,” and “ki,” which means “life force energy,” according to the International Center for Reiki Training.
“Ki is the life force energy that animates all living things,” says Joan Maute, a licensed Reiki master teacher who practices in Waikoloa, Hawaii, and Charlottesville, Virginia. Put together, and “rei” and “ki” mean “spiritually guided life force energy,” notes the International Center for Reiki Training.
Reiki is taught according to the Japanese tradition of the sensei (teacher), who passes the knowledge to the student through attunement, an initiation ceremony that is thought to help open the student’s energy channels to facilitate the flow of healing energy, and potentially help improve health, according to past research. Once opened, these channels remain accessible to the practitioner for the rest of their life, per the International Center for Reiki Training.
“[Reiki] is a spiritual practice, like meditation is a spiritual practice,” says Pamela Miles, a New York City–based Reiki master and researcher who has collaborated with the medical schools at Harvard and Yale universities to develop Reiki programs there. Reiki, despite its spiritual components and roots, may be and is often used therapeutically (more on this later), including in a secular way.
It’s not a religion and is not associated with religious practice.
Reiki is taught at three levels. First-level practitioners can practice on themselves or others through light touch; second-degree practitioners can practice distance healing; and third-degree or master level practitioners can teach and initiate others into Reiki, according to a literature review."
How Does Reiki, a Form of Energy Healing, Work?
"So, how does Reiki practice work? “The honest answer to that is: We don’t know,” Miles says. “Science does not yet know the mechanism of action.”
There are theories:
One popular theory involves a phenomenon known as the “biofield.” The biofield is an electromagnetic field that permeates and surrounds every living being. In humans, this field extends 15 feet or more from the body, according to Ann L. Baldwin, PhD, a Reiki researcher and professor of physiology at the University of Arizona’s College of Medicine.
The heart, for example, produces an electrical field — measured through an electrocardiogram, or ECG — to regulate heartbeats. The brain also produces an electrical field, though at a lower level than the heart. In fact, all of the body’s cells produce positive and negative electrical charges, which then create magnetic fields, per the aforementioned past literature review.
According to this theory, the interaction between two human magnetic fields may explain the effects of touch therapies like Reiki. It is thought that the biofield is the energetic force that guides bodily functions, and that Reiki energy influences the biofield. “[The biofield] is thought to cause dynamic changes in its vibrational qualities that alter physiological and psychological functions in living beings,” Dr. Baldwin says.
Quantum physics, the study of how the incredibly small particles that make up matter — electrons, neutrons, protons, and photons — behave, and attempts to explain the interactions of energy and physical matter.
Quantum physicists have found that these tiny particles of energy can be in more than one place at one time (both a wave and particle at the same time, depending upon how it is examined, as per the research at the University of Pittsburgh, and that thought or intention may change how the particles work.
In essence, the Reiki practitioner may be able to gather and direct biofield energy to the recipient through thoughts and intentions.
On its website, the NCCIH notes that there is insufficient scientific evidence at this time to verify the existence of this energy field."
Many of the religious structures (temples, churches, mosques, etc.) were built according to certain guidelines based on the positioning of celestial bodies to harness and channelise cosmic energy into the structures. Some feel a sensation of vibration when they are inside those structures, perhaps because of the cosmic energy being infused into them. Some say that they are greatly benefitted by the experience in many ways.
Yes, at this juncture, you are confused – what to believe and what not to. If you have the time, click on http://www.thehindu.com/opinion/op-ed/thatcher-chandraswami-and-i/article4595546.ece. and read the very interesting and authentic article about God-man Chandraswami
The subject of interaction between ‘Electrical Fields’, ‘Human Magnetic Fields’, ‘Human Bio-fields’, ‘Energetic Force’, ‘Cosmic Energy’, Biological Functions, Pathological Manifestations, Therapeutic Benefits, ‘Geo-magnetic Activity’, etc. belongs to a highly complex and ill-understood field.
I presented a paper at the II Tamil Nadu State Conference on Tuberculosis & Chest Diseases, 1980 on the subject of ‘Correlation between Geomagnetic Activity and Haemoptysis’.
It was a study on patients having ‘Haemoptysis (coughing out blood)’ at the ‘Perundurai Sanatorium’ where I worked. Most of the episodes of haemoptysis occurred at the monthly peak of geo-magnetic activity, dependent upon the position of the MOON and the rise of the TIDE in the sea. Science can’t convincingly explain certain things, including ‘REIKI.’
It is believed that application of a modified REIKI (OREIKLE -- a combination of Reiki and Spiritualism) conferred astonishing benefits to people, and even to plants.
The THREE OREIKLE FINGERS with a mole at the base of the index finger.
This ANTHURIUM cristallinum leaf had grown to an extraordinary size of nearly 3 feet !!! Along with this plant, there had been some more plants of the same kind. All of them, including this one, were provided the same physical conditions, and they all bore leaves of the ordinary size.
Plant biologist Simcha Lev-Yadun, from the University of Haifa (Israel), lists for OpenMind the senses that we tend to think of as exclusive to animals, but which also exist in plants: they see, hear, smell and taste, and of course respond to touch.9 Dec 2022
Plant leaves spark with electricity during thunderstorms — and that could be altering our air quality in unpredictable ways
By Harry Baker published 21 October 2022
During thunderstorms, leaves from trees and other plants create mini electric discharges that can significantly alter the surrounding air quality. But researchers are unsure if this is beneficial or harmful.

When lightning flashes above, plants on the ground may respond in kind.
Scientists have long been aware that plants and trees can emit small, visible electric discharges from the tips of their leaves when the plants are trapped beneath the electrical fields generated by thunderstorms high overhead. These discharges, known as coronas, are sometimes visible as faint, blue sparks that glow around charged objects. Now, new research suggests those plant-based sparks may be altering the surrounding air quality in ways never recognized before. But whether the impacts of these mini-shocks in the atmosphere are positive or negative remains unclear.
“Science is not very clear about many phenomena, including some which occurred during the COVID pandemic. Reiki and faith may just seem to be hollow concepts and perceptions, but they just can’t be brushed away as trash.”
A doctor-patient was being treated at his home by a team of doctors for persistent severe diarrhoea with fever. Even after three days, it was unrelenting, and so the plan was to shift the patient to a hospital for intensive care, on the morning of February 14, 2025. Then, an "OREIKLE" pronouncement was made that he would recover within 24 hours. He did ! He was up and around the next morning ! Perhaps, it's just a coincidence. The medicines given during the previous four days took time to arrest the symptoms only during the last 24 hours. But the unexpected and dramatic recovery makes the case worthy of documentation. Overjoyed by the miraculous twist in the case, the doctor-wife of the doctor-patient distributed gifts to the staff at home.
A staff member (a case of infertility) left the job to focus on treatment to bear a child. While bidding goodbye, an 'Oreikle' blessing was given. Soon later, she was pregnant. May be just a coincidence.

GODMAN Chandraswami
Compare the size of this leaf against the size of our adult dog. Did it grow to this size out of a psychological comfort ? God Only Knows (GOK).
Do the plants and trees require psychological support ? GOK
When we left a residential quarters in ‘Perundurai Sanatorium’, a century-old huge BANYAN tree by the side of the house died soon later. Psychological factor ? We couldn’t attribute the death to anything else. GOK. Psyche and superstition play a strong role in humans, even in Reiki or even in the following example.
The long-standing and unique décor, inclusive of plants, on this wall was removed around July 2022. It was followed by very unpleasant events. Is there any connection ? GOK.
