| ABSTRACT. From the perspective of biophotonics,
the science of the “living light” (bioluminescence) which all the
biological systems emit, the article presents two original theories
concerning the human body functionality and structure: the (bio)Photonic
Theory of Energy-Information and the “Biological Lasers”
Theory. Already experimentally verified, these emergent theories
are able to explain rationally the nature and the action of the
“Vital Force” and implicitly of the homeopathic mechanisms. Consequently,
by the clarifying contributions of biophotonics, homeopathy gets
a decisive support for becoming entirely scientific.
KEY WORDS: bioluminescence, energy-information fields,
holographic resonance, “biological lasers” systems, nonlinear optic,
biophotonic effects of remedies, principle of life.
As Hahnemann’s contribution of the foundation of homeopathy has
recently celebrated its 200th year, the science of the “living light
– which we would call Biophotonics – has just accomplished
its 30th year. This science of the (bio)luminescent
(energy-information) fields – still unconventional, but
plenary opened towards future – was founded by a group of German
bio-physicists, coordinated by Professor Dr. Fritz-Albert Popp.
By using a very special technology (a photo-multiplier and a photo-counter),
the German researchers have clearly demonstrated that living
systems are emitting biophotons (photons with modified physical
properties: speed, frequency, etc.) and implicitly that these
emissions have some similar properties as lasers. In this respect,
from the triple viewpoint of biology, technology and biotechnology,
we could assert that biophotonics is connected to [cf. Stanciulescu,
2003b: 257]:
— the effects of using photonic technology (lasers) in biology
and medicine (homeopathy implicitly);
— the generation, stocking and transmission of bio-photons at
the level of living systems;
— amplified and -stimulated emission of radiation by living
systems, can be compared with laser systems to explain
the effects of external natural / artificial energy-information
fields upon the structure and functionality of biological systems
[1].
The present article considers only some of the major postulates
of biophotonic theories, by correlating them with lesser-known aspects
of homeopathic mechanisms. In this way, the therapists (homeopaths)
may discover the virtues of an emergent science, able to offer an
integrative frame to homeopathic practice, belonging as it does
to both the past and future times.
In other terms, the very old holistic principle of the ancient
Greeks (which was learnt, as Plato recognizes in his dialog Charmides,
from Zalmoxis’ thraco-getians physicians) – to cure first the
“soul” (the energetic-informational body, the human “Vital Force”
respectively) and only after that the physical body – will be
recuperated in the frame of the quantum / energic-informational
/ synergic / integrated medicine, which is implicit in homeopathy.
1. THE MAJOR CONTRIBUTIONS OF BIOPHOTONICS:
HOMEOPATHIC CONNECTIONS
The first integrative explanatory theory concerning this already
known bioluminescent emission, namely the “Coherence Theory”
(CT), supposes that the fully coherent fields of biophotons emitted
in two different situations (with identical spectral distributions),
could be “responsible for intra- and intercellular communication
and regulation of biological functions such as biochemical activities,
cell growth and differentiation” [Popp, a.o., 2001: 98-99]. It is
exactly this coherence that characterizes the homeopathic “life
force” too. Consequently, according to CT, we could postulate that
a certain homeopathic potency carries the same functional and structural
regulatory property at the level of a living system, by transmitting
it coherently and instantaneously at the level of the whole organism,
or, on the other hand, by focusing it (by a special resonance /
tropism) at the level of a specific receptor (organ, for example)
only.
Based on these general hypotheses, which we have extensively analyzed
in our book Signs of Light [Stanciulescu, 2003], emergent
scientific theories are being developed, concerning the nature and
the effects of (bio)electromagnetic fields; these theories include
the Photonic Theory of Energy-Information (PTEI) and
the “Biological Lasers” Theory (BPL).
(1) The “Photonic Theory of Energy-Information” (PTEI)
[Constantinescu, Stanciulescu, (1993) and Stanciulescu, Constantinescu,
(1995)] explains how it is possible to influence the corpuscle /
body states acting on its afferent energetic-information field
(the “auric / etheric body”), by mechanisms of holographic resonance.
The regulatory role mentioned above becomes entirely understandable
by means of the interference of the remedy’s emission of waves and
the “auric field” of the receptor biological system [cf. figure
11, Stanciulescu, 2006]. Synthetically, we must note that, by means
of physical-mathematical instruments too, PTEI postulates the next
hypotheses:
1) It is possible to describe the double nature of light – corpuscular
and undulatory, electric and magnetic – by associating it predominantly
with the energetic and informational dimensions. The duality
corpuscle-wave – of the “body” and “soul” (or “Vital Force”),
responsible for the health state of all the living systems – can
be visualized now by different (bio)photonic technologies, such
as (figure 1a,b,c): spectroscopy [cf. Jayasuriya, 1997: 103]), electronography
[cf. Dumitrescu, Constantin, 1977: 118-119], etc.


Figure 1. Biophotonic representations of the corpuscle-wave
duality: a) spectroscopic images of different potencies of pulsatilla:
the colors of the original photos (realized by Paul J. Callinan)
are representing different type of information / (bio)luminescent
waves (frequencies), able to interact with human body’s field (aura);
b) electronographic (frontal and lateral) image of an electro-dermal
active point (corresponding to an “energy-information trap”).
2) By connecting with homeopathy the above mentioned duality, we
could assert – using the terms of semiology – that each remedy supposes
the double presence of: a) the physical / substantial original source
of the remedy (the referential, homeopathically transformed
by trituration, dilution etc.), able to radiate the specific information
/ waves (the signified) of the different type of remedies
mentioned in Materia Medica; b) the neutral support of this
radiation (the signifier) represented by lactose or other
solid / liquid substratum.
3) By using PTEI, it is possible to explain the transfer of wave-like
information to the substantial vibratiles (the membranous
liquid crystals, for example), through a "homeomorphic mechanism"
of “holographic resonance;” in this regard, the process of determining
properties of the induced field resembles the electro-magnetic (EM)
field effect upon different type of substrates (figure 2).


Figure 2. The genesis of the “archetypal form
of light”: (a) the “virtual EI ovoid” (EM “lines of force”)
present between the two poles of a magnet and its interaction with:
(b) water molecules; (b) iron powder; (d) organic matter (cellular
cytoplasm).
As a consequence of this “putting in-form” mechanism, it is possible
for us to understand how the bio-field (as an “informational matrix”,
as homeopathic remedies could be considered) represents the cause
of the possible (re)disposition / reordering of the body substratum
structures and, consequently, regenerating the human body health
state. The above mentioned aspects – related to the “magic”
of complementary therapies – are just a few that make very clear
that according to PTEI [2]: the regeneration of the cells / tissues
/ organs under the effect of one’s own mental configurations, of
the prayer, incantation or positive thinking, the information transfer
from one human subject to another, starting from telepathy to distal
therapy (figure 3a), the phenomena of bio-energizing by hands (figure
3b) or of stimulation by means of “magic” objects, such as are the
“amulets” containing organic ingredients (biophotonic resonators),
as sources of some exogenous homeopathic effects [Stanciulescu,
2006].
 

Figure 3. Biophotonic / holographic resonance:
1) Kirlian photos putting into evidence: (a) the auric malfunctions
of an ill person; (b) the regularization of the body’s aura after
some distal therapy (by Reiki procedure) [cf. Caraush, 2004: 80-84];
2) the quite evident difference between two plants of soy: from
a seed stimulated by the hands of a bioenergictherapist (left) and
from a normal seed (right) [experiment realized at Timnic research
station, Romania].
Consequently, we could
conclude that even the homeopathic remedies are working on this
way, by transmitting holographically to the human body systems the
optimizing information-wave of an exterior curative source (including
homeopathic remedies) [Stanciulescu, 2004c; 2006].
(2) The “Biological Lasers” Theory (BLT) [cf. Stanciulescu,
Manu, 2001, 2002] clarifies the determinative (genetic) relationships
between the human “corpuscle” (physical body) and its associated
“wave” (bioluminescent / auric body), manifested in the invisible
electromagnetic (EM) spectrum. The major topic of this theory concerns
light interference with living matter, presented from the perspective
of biophotonics, being founded on two basic hypotheses [3]:
(1) due to its double
quality, both energetic and informational, light (the EM field)
plays a crucial role in the structural and functional organization
of the living matter;
(2) the mechanism that can explain this involvement is the light
amplification by stimulated emission of (bio)radiation (namely
a “biological laser” process).
From the perspective of biophotonics, two structural-functional
systems are responsible for the optical activity of the living
organism that generates bioluminescence as a “biological laser”
phenomenon. These two systems are:
— the molecular system of a semi-conductor type phosphate –
linked water – molecular oxygen, which realizes the phenomenon
of bioluminescence that is the stimulated and amplified emission
of light which penetrates biological structures (according to the
anti-Stokes rule in non-linear optics);
― the organic structures with liquid crystal properties
(such as phospholipids are) present in cellular membranes and in
cytoplasm too, able to transmit step by step, through birefringence,
polarization, selective reflection and rotary magnetic dispersion,
the properties of the (bio)laser-type emission: coherence, monochromatcity,
directionality and intensity of light.
The omnipresence
of these systems at the structural level of living bodies – human,
but also animal and vegetable – provides ample support for the major
hypothesis of BLT [Stanciulescu, Manu, 1995], namely: the correlated
actions of the molecular semiconductor "biological-laser" and of
the organic structures with liquid crystal properties reflect the
fact that the molecules, membranes, cell nuclei, cells, organs and
the whole organism function as “biological laser” systems, both
linked and included, by generating a complex of correlated
biochemical, electrical, magnetic and photonic (BEMPh) phenomena.
On the one hand, it is possible to argue that all these systems
present evident structural analogies to the technical laser optic
resonator, active substance, optical pumping source of light, cooling
system, electromagnetic director field, etc. On the other hand,
the functionality of these biological complexes generates a bioluminescent
phenomenon, having all the already mentioned properties of a “natural
laser” emission. A very schematic presentation of the six
types of “biological lasers” specific to the human body, is absolutely
necessary in the present frame too, for suggesting the exceptional
explanatory force of biophotonics, in general, and for its possible
application in the field of homeopathic therapy, in particular [4].
(1) The semiconductor molecular “biological laser” system.
According to the “biological laser” theory (BLT), this system
generates an ultra-weak emission of bioluminescence (fluorescence
or phosphorescence) at the level of the molecular complex phosphate
– linked water – molecular oxygen (figure 4) [5], taking into
consideration our demonstration (involving the mechanisms of quantum
physics and of non-linear optics) that:
— the luminous radiation emission of the living systems is not
a spontaneous emission process (as phosphorescence is considered
to be), but a process of the amplified and stimulated luminous radiation,
i.e., a “biological laser” emission type, like the technical laser
emission;
— a “π” type meta-stable electron of the phosphorus atom within
in the phosphate group (as a biological non-linear medium) is responsible
for generating and maintaining the process of light (photons) absorption
and amplified emission of biophotonic radiation (figure 4).

Figure 4. The TLB model concerning the absorption
/ emission process of stimulated and amplified light radiation at
the level of the “molecular semiconductor” system: the
role of the metastable “π” electron of phosphate in laser emission
process (according to the nonlinear optics). We could find in this
mechanism the presence of the symbolical “four elements”: … fire
→ earth → water →
air → fire …, respectively: light →
phosphate → linked water →
molecular oxygen… The result – not only symbolic – of this process
is: the (BIO)LIGHT / BIOLUMINESCENCE = the “VITAL FORCE”…
The
complex phosphate – linked water – molecular oxygen is essentially
involved in the unitary genesis of all the living systems
(plants, animals, humans), by representing the active substance
of all the types of “biological lasers”, able to mediate the metamorphosis
of the “natural / artificial light” into “living light” (mana,
prana, ki), respectively into the “Vital Force” which homeopathy
implicitly uses. Or, in a certain way, to generate this bio-luminescence
(aura) means for human being “to be alive”, on the one hand, and
on the other hand to be healthy, if the “active substance” is in
a good state of functionality.
Consequently, as F.A. Popp a.o. demonstrated (1992), the bioluminescence
phenomenon appears to be a “delayed luminescence”, wherein the greater
the density, the force of emission and the frequency of the incident
light, the longer the duration. In a certain way, each homeopathic
remedy could be considered as being a quantum energy-information
(E-I) trap, a source of “delayed luminescence”, able to interact
with human body’s aura emission.
(2) The membranous “biological laser” system.
This type of “biological laser” is structured or constructed
of semiconductor “molecular lasers” in combination with thermic-tropic
type liquid crystals. It can be found in all cellular membranes
as well as in organelles such as chloroplasts and mitochondria.
This system has all the liquid crystal features, such as: optic
reflection and refraction, birefringence and rotatory magnetic dispersion
(figure 5a), diamagnetic memory properties, piezoelectricity, etc.
As a consequence of the piezoelectric effect, for example, the
ordered liquid crystals in cellular membranes can transform any
energetic-informational stimulus – photonic, caloric, mechanic,
sonorous, tactile, pressure, olfactory, etc. – in electrons and
biophotons fluxes. Such a feature is very important for explaining
two phenomena:
— the possibility of unitary analysis of a great number of types
of information / energies by the brain by means of bringing
it to a common denominator, namely biophotonic emission (bioluminescence)
and electric currency; on the one hand, this is an indirect channel
that permits the brain to analyze the information of a certain remedy
and then select a corresponding reaction / command (for example,
the delivery of certain stimulatory or inhibitory hormones, such
as serotonin or melatonin);
— the substantial support of the memory (at the level of
cellular membrane, especially) that assume the fixation of information
and various types of energy upon the biochemical structures of the
liquid crystals oriented / fixed on the membranous support in a
specific way (figure 5b); on the other hand, at this level the homeopathic
remedy also acts by influencing the configuration of the membranous
liquid crystals of a certain cell / tissue / organ, respectively
by “remembering” their normal (healthy) organization through the
pattern of the (bio)electromagnetic information / frequency of the
remedy.

Figure 5. The liquid crystal structure of the
membrane, explanatory for its: a) optical properties (light’s
refraction inside the cellular body); b) memory phenomena: the
orientation of the liquid crystals in the membranous field (surface)
due to the properties of the incident stimuli (remedy’s vibration,
for example), accorded to the oscillation mode of the (monochromatic)
light.
On the membranous level, the biochemical, electric, magnetic and
biophotonic (BEMPh) effects initiated by the presence of a luminous
stimulus are responsible for the following categories of processes,
not enough known by standard medical sciences: the energic-informational
genesis of the helicoidal and dextrogyrate DNA structure, the photolysis
of cellular membranes, the generation of the organic polymers network,
the formation of reserves of molecular compounds (energy / information
traps), the apparition of the membranous black-holes assuring the
cells’ nutrition, the generation of the electric potential of repose
and of action and the “solenoidal” characteristics of the cell,
the (bio)photonic / auric effects connected to cells: thermal,
plasmatic, holographic, etc.
All these type of processes could be beneficially influenced /
stimulated through the information carried by a homeopathic stimuli,
information able to optimize the functionality of the liquid crystals
(membranous and cytoplasmatic): their transparency against light
respectively [6]. The same effect of a “biological / natural laser”
(emission of coherent light) is generated by the homeopathic remedy,
due to:
—
the organic (liquid) crystals present at the level of certain remedy
(in the case of small potencies, usually), able to influence / stimulate
the optical functions of the membranous “biological laser” systems
(the optimal refraction and reflection of the cellular membranes,
for example);
—
the vibratory properties of the remedies, able to stimulate the
delivery of a flux of electrons and (bio)photons at the level of
the human organism E-I traps.
(3) The nuclear “biological laser”
system. This system – structurally formed
by some other types of liquid crystals (such as are the liothrope
crystals RNA, DNA, TPA, etc., found in nucleus-plasma, mitochondrion
and organelles) – is responsible for some essential phenomena, namely:
― the incidental light, self-focusing and self-filamenting
in the nucleus, can transform a large fascicle into a narrower,
more powerful one, a mechanism analogous to that used in laser technique;
this is one of the mechanism which led some researchers (Popp, Gu,
Li) to consider DNA as a “bio-laser” (figure 6a);
― the storage of a large number
of biophotons in the nuclear DNA and mitochondrion medium, which
can get stuck between DNA's catenae (as the most profound light-information
trap) for an indefinite period of time;
― the initiation of the specific electromagnetic effects
inside organelles as division of genetic material in the nucleus,
in mitochondria and the cell itself and mitosis starting with RNA
in nucleolus of the nucleus (intro-nuclear), by generating the cellular
E-I traps (figure 6b); etc.

Figure 6. Essential properties of the nuclear
(cellular) “bio-laser” system: a) light’s self-focalisation
and self-filamentation in monochromatic focuses (the “energetic
cone” effect); b) the nuclear (cellular) division, according the
BLT’s modeling: a certain intensity of the contrary / opposite
(bio)electro-magnetic forces (realised only at a certain level of
the linked cellular “bio-lasers” system) is necessary for determining
the division of the nuclear (cellular) mass; this mechanism could
explain why certain nervous cell does not still divide in the case
of the mature human being.
It is exactly these “traps” which homeopathic remedies are able
to stimulate (by a “holographic resonance” mechanism) in order to
release the latent E-I resources of the human organism.
(4) The cellular “biological laser” system.
This system – formed from a complex of linked and intricated
“biological lasers” (molecular, membranous, nuclear) – has some
special characteristics (figure 7):
(1) Structurally, the cellular system is the first to show its
similarity with all the reference points of the technical laser:
resonant optic cavity; the active substance; the pumping and photon
obturation; buffering and cooling systems; and orientation of electromagnetic
field. This detailed correspondence suggests that bioluminescence
is a laser type one, as we have already extensively argued in our
integrative research [Stanciulescu, 2003b]. It therefore seems probable
that an interference between the human body bioluminescence and
the waves of the homeopathic remedy – previously stimulated /
(bio)energized by a natural source (such as human hands’
bioluminescent emission) or by a technical coherent fluxes of light
(of a laser, for example) – could be responsible for a more
efficient effect of the remedy. We could implicitly find in this
context a practical suggestion: that of optimizing the curative
properties of a remedy by its stimulation with a (bio)laser source
of light.
(2) Functionally, the “cellular laser” allows the
following BEMPh categories of complementary effects to become manifest:
— The biochemical phenomena are typical of daytime
(the luminescent stimulus is accumulated and stored in macro-energetic
compounds TPA, TPG, etc.) and of nighttime (the energetic-informational
reserves are delivered for maintaining the bioluminescence and its
effects). The homeopathic remedies are generally acting as a “daily
/ lightly-time” type of mechanism, permitting the nearly instantaneous
reaction, inside the human body, to an external stimulus: the remedy’s
biochemical information, in the case of very low potencies, and
in the case of the high potencies, the photonic information able
to trigger biochemical reactions.
— The electrical phenomena at the cellular level results
from the fact that the cell makes an “electromagnetic oscillatory
circuit”(solenoid) in the cellular membranes, due to the presence
of the action-rest currency; the fact that the cell is working like
an emission-reception type of bio-electromagnetic circuit makes
it possible for the cell to transmit information by electromagnetic
resonance, having the “monochromatic impulse frequency”. According
to BLT’s hypotheses concerning the complementarity of the BEMPh
mechanisms, the remedy’s photonic information will initiate a specific
potential currency at the cellular membrane level, which is transmitted
to the brain by this channel too.
— The magnetic phenomena are found both in the shallow level
of the cell (the occurrence of the membranous “black-hole”, of the
magnetic cellular N-S poles) and its deep level, as cellular division,
i.e. the cellular self-reproduction as an effect of the magnetic
field interaction, the periodical occurrence of the magnetic impulses
of electronic and photonic nature. Moreover, the cell is also a
magnetic trap for the “biological laser” plasma generated as a secondary
biophotonic effect. The electric effect generated by the remedy’s
information in the membranous solenoid is also transferred at the
level of the cellular magnetic (bio-plasmatic) field implicitly
and, after that, step by step at the level of the whole organism.
This magnetic / plasmatic channel could be associated with the “nadis
net” already known by the oriental medicine.
d) The photonic phenomena (bioluminescence) are determined
by the main source of energy and information, light being a cellular
biologic material organizing factor and also the genetic material
(in the shape of inorganic and organic living-matter). In accord
with non-linear optics, from the photon viewpoint, we can consider
the cell as a “biological parametric generator of superior optical
frequencies”, i.e. a generator of superior harmonics of the incident
radiation (with visible frequency deviated towards ultraviolet)
as well as having an amplifier role in the amplitude of the luminous
radiation energy. Conforming to its source and preparation,
a homeopathic remedy could transmit only a certain type of vibration
/ information (representing the “monochromaticity of remedy”), or
an assembly of complex frequencies (by determining the “harmonic
chromaticity” of the remedy).
These different characteristics could also explain the mechanisms
of two homeopathic possible strategies:
a) to use the unicist strategy, prescribing in the classical
way “one remedy at a time, usually in high potency”; such a polychrest
remedy, which activates the fundamental wave (frequency) of the
ill person, “has many widespread uses, covering wide variety of
mental, emotional and physical symptomatology” [Yasgur, 2004: 271;
191];
b) to use a complex of complementary remedies, in a longer
period of time, able to act one after the other. So, after remedy
a some symptoms are left that fit remedy b, which
is then given. In a complex remedy, several remedies are combined
that are considered to be useful for the same indicators. Complex
remedies are not classical and only require the medical diagnosis,
hardly a homeopathic one.

Figure 7. The (photoreceptive) cone-cell conforming
BLT: a) the cell’s structural correspondence with a technical
lasers; b) the transformation of the bioluminescent information
from analogous signal in digitally signal, at the level of the cellular
resonator and of the axon respectively; due to its biophotonic properties,
each nervous cell is functioning like a “optical fiber”.
The differences among various “biologic type” systems that form
the cell result from the differences of size (macroscopic aspect)
and structure of the active substance (phosphates, liquid crystals,
nucleic acid, etc.). They also result from the differences regarding
the two essential types of energetic amplification realized along
the linked “cellular lasers”, trough:
a) modulation in frequency: the deviation of the incident
visible light towards the invisible scale of the EM spectrum (UV,
X, gamma, etc.); such a modulation is realized by two mechanisms,
namely: (a) at the level of the molecular “biological laser” (phosphate
– linked water – molecular oxygen), according to the anti-Stokes
rule (from non-linear optics), the incident light will increase
its frequency; (b) at the level of the membranous liquid crystals,
by each refraction the incident light waves will double its frequency;
b) modulation in amplitude: the light’s (bioluminescence)
focalization is monochromatic and focuses by the “energetic cone”
effect (figure 5b), facilitated by the cell’s character as a “laser
resonator” lined with liquid crystals (as coherent reflecting mirrors);
consequently, the very high frequency of the incident radiation
(natural light, for example) will be transformed inside the linked
“cellular lasers” into a low frequency (fluxes / impulses) of light.
According TLB, each cell of the organism functions with light as
a main source of energy and information. Either they receive it
directly or indirectly through other cells' bioluminescence, respectively
from different types of “E-I traps” (considering each homeopathic
remedy to be a variety of such a trap).
