Effect Of Superconsciousness External Energy On Atomic, Crystalline And Powder Characteristics Of Carbon Allotrope Powders, Mahendra Kumar Trivedi, Rama Mohan Tallapragada Nov 2009

Effect Of Superconsciousness External Energy On Atomic, Crystalline And Powder Characteristics Of Carbon Allotrope Powders, Mahendra Kumar Trivedi, Rama Mohan Tallapragada

Mahendra Kumar Trivedi

Scientists are searching for eluding link between spirituality and science. Some believe fundamental essences of universe to be energy and information. As per current understanding, energy and matter always coexisted and is considered one and the same. Energy is considered as ‘matter in perpetual motion’ and matter as ‘stationary energy’. Interconversion between matter and energy has been defined by Einstein’s famous energy–mass equation (E=mc2) which has been proven by nuclear physicists using complex nuclear reactions involving high energy particles. However, many spiritual masters have claimed to realise this energy–matter interconversion using their spiritual powers/energy but scientifically unknown and unverified. It …

A Transcendental To Changing Metal Powder Characteristics, Mahendra Kumar Trivedi, Rama Mohan Tallapragada Sep 2008

A Transcendental To Changing Metal Powder Characteristics, Mahendra Kumar Trivedi, Rama Mohan Tallapragada

Mahendra Kumar Trivedi

It’s not often that Metal Powder Report departs from the path of hard facts into the somewhat ‘mushier’ area of metaphysics, but opportunities crop up. While recognising that science has its fair share of charlatans, one such opportunity was presented by a paper submitted by an Indian researcher in which he details work aimed at probing the effects on powder samples where changes were apparently generated by thought. Some will laugh, others will cry, but perhaps among our readers there are those who might be able to help elucidate further the phenomena described…
