The mystery of Life solved?

Biochemist, PhD Erik Andrulis, expert on RNA metabolism and life, has published a paper "Theory of the Origin, Evolution, and Nature of Life," and you can download the whole thing for free from the peer-reviewed journal Life, in the Special Issue "Origin of Life - Feature Papers" (with 6 papers, of which S. Kauffman also contributed). The paper created a violent rejection of 'mainstream' scientists, so they call in a journalist Jesse Emspak for their defense. The whole thing reminds much of the way Benveniste, 'the heretic' was treated, when the magicer Randi was called in to disclaim his work. Why is such things happening? This man Andrulis belongs to mainstream himself, but his insights took a giant jump, and so he is rejected, because the ordinary scientists are too ignorant. They cannot even discuss it? This is a shame for the scientific world. He thinks of the Holy Grail of Life, the billion research industry of today, and is rejected without discussion, just misunderstandings and misquotes? What a pity! So, lets take a look.

Earth as a lifelike self-organized state, the Gaia theory.
So, what did he say that was so dangerous? Earth is living! The Gaia hypothesis by James Lovelock (and Lynn Margulis). (The theory homeside here.) But there are actually hints for it being true. Even Lubos discusses this (negatively still). It says that all organisms and their inorganic surroundings on Earth are closely integrated to form a single and self-regulating complex system, maintaining the conditions for life on the planet. The self-organizing system and Gaia theory is also here with plants as a part of the biota Earth. Phil Gibbs: At 86 Lovelock is no longer considered a crank. He is appreciated as the founder of a new area of science investigating the relationship between biological systems and the atmosphere. Without his insight we would have been much slower to understand the negative effects we have been having on our climate through pollution.
A book
by Eileen Crist and H. Bruce Rinker from 2009 Gaia in Turmoil, Climate Change, Biodepletion, and Earth Ethics in an Age of Crisis.

Gaian theory, which holds that Earth's physical and biological processes are inextricably bound to form a self-regulating system, is more relevant than ever in light of increasing concerns about global climate change. The Gaian paradigm of Earth as a living system, first articulated by James Lovelock and Lynn Margulis in the 1970s, has inspired a burgeoning body of researchers working across disciplines that range from physics and biology to philosophy and politics. Gaia in Turmoil reflects this disciplinary richness and intellectual diversity, with contributions (including essays by both Lovelock and Margulis) that approach the topic from a wide variety of perspectives, discussing not only Gaian science but also global environmental problems and Gaian ethics and education.
...focus first on the science of Gaia, considering such topics as the workings of the biosphere, the planet's water supply, and evolution; then discuss Gaian perspectives on global environmental change, including biodiversity destruction and global warming; and finally explore the influence of Gaia on environmental policy, ethics, politics, technology, economics, and education.
... breaks new ground by focusing on global ecological problems from the perspectives of Gaian science and knowledge, focusing especially on the challenges of climate change and biodiversity destruction.

Al Gore wrote a book entitled Earth in the Balance, where he wrote sympathetically about the Gaia hypothesis of an earth spirit. Dr. Stephen H. Schneider (with many books, latest from 2009, Climate Change Science and Policy one of the most comprehensive and current reference resource on climate change available) a climatologist and Penelope Boston, complex systems bioloy, cited the Gaia theory in his book, Scientists on Gaia, on global warming. “...is there a Goddess of the Earth?” and "The Gaia hypothesis suggests that life is an active participant in shaping the physical and chemical environment on which it depends." This is a common way to charachterize Life in biology. He is one of several scientists who contributed to the 2004 book, Scientists Debate Gaia. A description of the book declares, “Despite initial dismissal of the Gaian approach as New Age philosophy, it has today been incorporated into mainstream interdisciplinary scientific theory, as seen in its strong influence on the field of Earth System Science.” Schneider won the 2007 Nobel Peace Prize together with Al Gore. He has been threated many hundred times also death-threats, but he died of heart-attack at 65. Sad with such stress. Has it made his death? He has written another book Science as a Contact Sport: Inside the Battle to Save the Earth's Climate about science as a network of 'best brothers' scientists.

So Andrulis is in good company.

The critizing article:

The trans-disciplinary theory demonstrates that purportedly inanimate, non-living objects—for example, planets, water, proteins, and DNA—are animate, that is, alive . . .
He didn't say so. A misquote. He [Andrulis] doesn't say that everything is alive, exactly, though he says gyres have "lifelike characteristics." So Andrulis doesn't say what Emspak just told us he does say? Maybe the space spinors should be extended? Today we have spacelike, timelike and lightlike spinors, maybe there should be lifelike too? Or can the lifelike charachteristics have something with the lightlike Universe to do? In this case it is clearly not life, but maybe its precusors? TGD actually talk of these same things. Essential for life is a consciousness, coherence and synchrony.

Jesse Emspak (not scientist) just published an article at Space.com titled “Crackpot Theory of Everything Reveals Dark Side of Peer Review.” talking about the peer review process, and the dark side of modern science propaganda.

On the University page Andrulis writes:
My group has been asking two broad questions: How does the spatiotemporal control of RNase interactions and post-translational modifications relate to RNase recognition and metabolism of specific classes of RNAs in living cells? How does RNase activity relate to cell structure and function? To answer these questions, we are studying Dis3, Rrp6, and the ribonucleometabolic exosome. Dis3 is a processive, sequence-nonspecific 3' to 5' RNase that is homologous to eubacterial RNase R/II. Rrp6 is a distributive, sequence-nonspecific 3' to 5' RNase similar to eubacterial RNase D. The exosome is a multi-subunit complex or set of complexes that contain(s) putative RNases (Rrp41, Rrp42, Rrp43, Rrp45, Rrp46, Mtr3 are eukaryotic homologs of the eubacterial RNase PH) and the S1 RNA-binding domain proteins Rrp4, Rrp40, and Csl4. We have proposed and are testing the hypothesis that these subunits assemble into multiple independent, functionally interrelated complexes called exozymes.

Extending upon this RNA research, I recently compiled an incommensurable, trans-disciplinary, neologistical, axiomatic theory of life from quantum gravity to the living cell.
The article says:
To test his paradigm, Dr. Andrulis designed bidirectional flow diagrams that both depict and predict the dynamics of energy and matter. While such diagrams may be foreign to some scientists, they are standard reaction notation to chemists, biochemists, and biologists. Dr. Andrulis has used his theory to successfully predict and identify a hidden signature of RNA biogenesis...the exozyme model.
So he has some kind of proofs? The abstract: Full text here.
Exosome complexes are composed of 10 to 11 subunits and are involved in multiple facets of 3' → 5' RNA processing and turnover. The current paradigm stipulates that a uniform, stoichiometric core exosome, composed of single copies of each subunit, carries out all RNA metabolic functions in vivo. While core composition is well established in vitro, available genetic, cell biological, proteomic, and transcriptomic data raise questions about whether individual subunits contribute to RNA metabolic functions exclusively within the complex. Here, we recount the current understanding of the core exosome model and show predictions of the core model that are not satisfied by the available evidence. To resolve this discrepancy, we propose the exozyme hypothesis, a novel model stipulating that while exosome subunits can and do carry out certain functions within the core, subsets of exosome subunits and cofactors also assemble into a continuum of compositionally distinct complexes-exozymes-with different RNA specificities. The exozyme model is consistent with all published data and provides a new framework for understanding the general mechanisms and regulation of RNA processing and turnover.

In TGD Matti talks of 'Gaias womb' in evolution. Earth is a coherent field body that acts as controlling agent. Also with consciousness and lifelike properties. Did Life evolve in the womb of Gaia? Matti also talks of DNA and life, water, plasmoids, lightnings etc. as lifelike. We have looked at the exosome and its 1:10-fold fractality as in electron:proton.


The gyre model?
In a wry article about Andrulis' work, Ars Technica's John Timmer summed the paper up:
The basic idea is that everything, from subatomic particles to living systems, is based on helical systems the author calls "gyres," which transform matter, energy, and information. These transformations then determine the properties of various natural systems, living and otherwise. What are these gyres? It's really hard to say; even Andrulis admits that they're just "a straightforward and non-mathematical core model" (although he seems to think that's a good thing). Just about everything can be derived from this core model; the author cites "major phenomena including, but not limited to, quantum gravity, phase transitions of water, why living systems are predominantly CHNOPS (carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, phosphorus, and sulfur), homochirality of sugars and amino acids, homeoviscous adaptation, triplet code, and DNA mutations."
First the 'gyres'. What are they? Andrulis:
One reason for their theoretical appeal is that gyres are detectable throughout the cosmic and tellurian realms.
Astronomically, galaxies, solar systems, comets, and lunar bodies gyrate.

Atmospherically, tornadoes, hurricanes, eddies, and vortex streets are all gyres. Oceanographically, there are seven major gyres.
Molecularly, numerous nucleic acid and protein structures—DNA double helix, RNA hairpins, pseudoknots, α-helices, coiled coils, and β-propellers—all gyrate. Cellularly and organismally, shells, horns, antennae, flagellae, and the cochlea all carry a spiral imprint.
Given its theoretical pedigree, empirical ubiquity, and dynamic character, the gyre appears, a posteriori, to be a prime candidate for a core model of natural systems.
Gyre - a round shape formed by a series of concentric circles (as formed by leaves or flower petals) The Free Dictionary.
curl, curlicue, ringlet, scroll, whorl, coil, roll A spiral oceanic surface current
corolla - (botany) the whorl of petals of a flower that collectively form an inner floral envelope or layer of the perianth; "we cultivate the flower for its corolla"
calyx - (botany) the whorl of sepals of a flower collectively forming the outer floral envelope or layer of the perianth enclosing and supporting the developing bud; usually green
round shape - a shape that is curved and without sharp angles
verticil - a whorl of leaves growing around a stem

Wikipedia says: A gyre is any manner of swirling vortex, particularly a natural phenomenon. It can refer to
Yeah, is this a physical description? Why on Earth go to this? Why use 'a black box' for the physical description, and say he has gone to quantum mechanics level, when physicists are trying to explain things with first principles and basic natural laws. To only use simplicity and Occams razor isn't enough? Eintein said: "Simple, but not simpler than it is". He didn't explain his motives for doing like this in the text. A 'core model'? Yeah, but the core is ad hoc used to tie togeteher microcosmos and macrocosmos. The idea is good, though, but it must be deduced from physical principles. Wikipedia:
A vortex is a spinning, often turbulent, flow of fluid. Any spiral motion with closed streamlines is vortex flow. The motion of the fluid swirling rapidly around a center is called a vortex. The speed and rate of rotation of the fluid in a free (irrotational) vortex are greatest at the center, and decrease progressively with distance from the center, whereas the speed of a forced (rotational) vortex is zero at the center and increases proportional to the distance from the center. Both types of vortices exhibit a pressure minimum at the center, though the pressure minimum in a free vortex is much lower.
The outcome of his fundamental gyre functions is 13 additional gyreprinciples or axioms. A gyre glossary is added to the article. Andrulis tries to introduce a novel idea.

Life is complex and perplexing. It should come as no surprise that modeling life is a complicated procedure. Likewise, explaining a theory of life is an arduous task. Thus, prior to proceeding, I issue several warnings regarding the model and theory. The gyromodel is incommensurable with prior and existing theories. Thus, the reader must judge this theory by two criteria: the principle of parsimony, or Ockham’s Razor—the scientific principle dictating that things behave or are connected in the simplest and most economical fashion—and the ability to explain the available scientific data. Another challenge is discovered in the lexicon, where I have redefined established terms and created and applied ~100 new words to identify, explain, and interconnect distinct aspects of the theory. Creating a new vocabulary yields, on the one hand, a single, tight system to unify multiple disparate scientific languages. On the other hand, simultaneously supplanting the vernaculars of physics, chemistry, and biology may cause a high degree of frustration. Together, the foreign symbolism, semantics, and lexicon make comprehending the gyromodel difficult. As more is different, one must think differently to interpret more. Finally, this theory challenges long-held assumptions, guiding philosophies, ad hoc models, cherished paradigms, ossified boundaries, and, quite regrettably, patience.
These warnings represent a full and sincere disclosure of the difficulties in effectively presenting my model and theory and of convincing the reader of its scientific merit.
Ye??? And restricted references, but still p66-105. He use only one or two references to defend a position or to guide the reader.

A schematic picture of a gyre from Andrulis article. It starts from the lepton in ordinary matter, and is both expanding and compressing etc. at the same time depending on energy movement (thermodynamics). It also makes up for the relations between elements as oxygen (O), carbon (C), phosphor (P) , amins (A) etc. up to cell. In this model microcosmos cannot be divided from macrocosmos.

Here, for brevity, I highlight only one theoretical solution for each gyrosystem. The electrogyre explains quantum gravity, unifying quantum mechanics and general relativity in a frame beyond the standard model [753]; the oxygyre explains the mysterious properties of water [133]; the carbogyre explains the emergence of hydrocarbons in the Earth’s mantle and crust, resolving the biotic/abiotic petroleum debate [754]; the phosphogyre explains why phosphorus is “life’s bottleneck [755]” and the dominant roles of phosphate in biology [756]; the ribogyre solves the problem of novel genetic information [757-759]; the aminogyre explains the origin and nature of the translation apparatus, one of theoretical biology’s grand unsolved problems [488,760]; the genogyre clarifies the correct relationship of DNA, protein, and RNA, quelling anonymous protestations against the central dogma [761,762]; and the cellulogyre reveals that life originates in any biosphere wherever the thermodynamics of information, energy, and matter are accommodating, consistent with ideas regarding hierarchical complexification of and in the universe [763]. Together, the theoretical framework confirms what many modern theoretical physicists have proposed: that the classical world is “quantum all the way [764].” p 62.

Gyre thermodynamics and forms:
Gyres are open thermodynamic entities that require energy and matter mobilization to establish and maintain themselves. Being open systems, gyres import energy and matter from their surroundings into themselves, ebb and flow energy and matter within themselves, and dissipate energy and matter from themselves into their surroundings. Reducing or increasing amounts of energy and matter elicits gyre contraction or expansion, respectively. When efflux or influx is acute, extreme, or unsustainable, a gyre collapses. A gyre staves off collapse through autoregulation: a gyre feeds into itself, regulating its own rotational rate, size, composition, motion, and trajectory. Gyre autoregulation is spatiotemporally internal and/or external, proximal and/or distal, negative and/or positive. Consistent with its autoregulatory bent, a gyre maintains homeostasis—internal responsiveness and balance—by oscillating material around its singularity, a consequence of alternating between extreme countervailing forces within itself. Previewing the application of the gyromodel to life, the cell is an open thermodynamic entity that has numerous, discrete layers of autoregulation

The geometric form created is called a hypersphere; this shape is compatible with ideas regarding the thermodynamic expansion of the universe [42,43]. Still, in nature, there is manifest directionality, such as that observed in the N- to C-terminal orientation of the protein chain or 5’ to 3’ orientation of nucleotide polymers. Though gyromodels are depicted as having a left-to-right vectorization, this is simply a two-dimensional restriction of the artistic approach. From this two-dimensional perspective, one revolution of a gyre is seen as a circle or oval. A circle, when viewed in three dimensions, is a cycle. Closing this circle of thought: a cycle viewed in the context of time, or four dimensions, looks like a rotating spiral, helix, or gyre. Foreshadowing, any cycle that exists in nature—in physical, chemical, or biological systems—may be viewed as a gyre.

Fourth Law of Thermodynamics. The theoretical framework sheds light on how life maintains order and complexifies in spite of entropy: the repulsive force of the gyradaptive singularity elevates a particle to its excited state, offsetting the effects of it cycling to the ground state. The gyromodel thus confirms the existence of the fourth law of thermodynamics [770], the ordering law of the universe. p 63.
Given the law of relativity, IEM order and disorder are demonstrated to be relative to the singularity. Further, given the law of complementarity, universal order and disorder paradoxically co-exist. In proving this contradictory fact, my theory does not “collapse in deepest humiliation [781],” but rather reflects and honors the true nature of the physical world. p 64.

All natural gyres harbor two countervailing forces: attraction and repulsion. Paradoxically, the gyre singularity both attracts and repels energy and matter and thus is “attractorepulsive.” These unified yet contradictorily dual (diune) forces exert paradoxical effects. Gyre forces occur both within an individual gyre and also between and among gyres. For example, two transverse gyres exhibit constructive interference when synchiral (same chirality) and destructive interference when antichiral (opposing chirality). Alternatively, the fine-tuning and balancing of two contradictory forces results in neutrality, immutability, and immobility—identifiable characteristics of physical systems.
Gravity and antigravity? Or positive and negative energy? Like a Zero Energy Ontology and Kähler action behind massivation inTGD?
The identification of the spectrum of light particles reduces to two tasks: the construction of massless states and the identification of the states which remain light in p-adic thermodynamics. The latter task is relatively straightforward. The thorough understanding of the massless spectrum requires however a real understanding of quantum TGD. It would be also highly desirable to understand why p-adic thermodynamics combined with p-adic length scale hypothesis works. A lot of progress has taken place in these respects during last years.
Zero energy ontology providing a detailed geometric view about bosons and fermions, the generalization of S-matrix to what I call M-matrix, the notion of finite measurement resolution characterized in terms of inclusions of von Neumann algebras, the derivation of p-adic coupling constant evolution and p-adic length scale hypothesis from the first principles, the realization that the counterpart of Higgs mechanism involves generalized eigenvalues of the modified Dirac operator...

About formative forces in TGD:

The string world sheets in Euclidian regions would de ne the analogs of the minimal surfaces in Euclidian AdS5 and the string world sheets in Minkowskian regions the analogs of Minkowskian AdS5. The magnitudes of the areas would be identical so that they might be seen as analytical continuations of each other in some sense. Note that partonic 2-surfaces would belong to the intersection of Euclidian and Minkowskian space-time regions. This argument tells nothing about possible momentum space analog of M4 x CP2.
The strong form of General Coordinate Invariance implies e ffective 2-dimensionality (holding true in finite measurement resolution) so that also a strong form of holography emerges. The expectation is that Chern-Simons terms in turn reduces to 2-dimensional surface terms. The only physically interesting possibility is that these 2-D surface terms correspond to areas for minimal surfaces de fined by string world sheets and partonic 2-surfaces appearing in the solution ansatz for the preferred extremals. String world sheets would give to Kähler action an imaginary contribution having interpretation as Morse function. This contribution would be proportional to their total area and assignable with the Minkowskian regions of the space-time surface. Similar but real string world sheet contribution de fining Kähler function comes from the Euclidian space-time regions and should be equal to the contribution of the partonic 2-surfaces. A natural conjecture is that the absolute values of all three areas are identical: this would realize duality between string world sheets and partonic 2-surfaces and duality between Euclidian and Minkowskian space-time regions.
Zero energy ontology combined with the TGD analog of large Nc expansion inspires an educated guess about the coeffcient of the minimal surface terms and a beautiful connection with p-adic physics and with the notion of nite measurement resolution emerges. The t'Hooft coupling should be proportional to p-adic prime p characterizing particle. This means extremely fast convergence of the counterpart of large Nc expansion in TGD since it becomes completely analogous to the pinary expansion of the partition function in p-adic thermodynamics. Also the twistor description and its dual have a nice interpretation in terms of zero energy ontology. This duality permutes massive wormhole contacts which can have off mass shell with wormhole throats which are always massive (also for the internal lines of the generalized Feynman graphs).
Actually Andrulis comes out with the same figures as in TGD, with Matrioshka dolls, hierarchy (sub/supragyres resp CD-diamonds) and infinite fractality, nesting/wormholes etc.
Stuart Kauffman talks about work cycles as thermodynamic entities too. About the history of the independent invention in 1971 by T. Ganti, M. Eigen and Kauffman of three alternative theories of the origin of molecular replication: the Chemotron, the Hypercycle, and Collectively Autocatalytic Sets, CAS, respectively.

To date, only collectively autocatalytic DNA, RNA, and peptide sets have achieved molecular reproduction of polymers. Theoretical work and experimental work on CAS both support their plausibility as models of openly evolvable protocells, if housed in dividing compartments such as dividing liposomes. My own further hypothesis beyond that of CAS in themselves, of their formation as a phase transition in complex chemical reaction systems of substrates, reactions and products, where the molecules in the system are candidates to catalyze the very same reactions, now firmly established as theorems, awaits experimental proof using combinatorial chemistry to make libraries of stochastic DNA, RNA and/or polypeptides, or other classes of molecules to test the hypothesis that molecular polymer reproduction has emerged as a true phase transition in complex chemical reaction systems.

An essential feature of the CAS above is that they can be purely exergonic. Real cells link exergonic and endergonic reactions in complex webs of reactions, and perform work cycles such as chemo-osmotic pumps.
i. Consider a hypothetical world in which only exergonic reactions can be coupled;
ii. Consider a hypothetical world in which exergonic and endergonic reactions can be coupled.
Almost a Theorem: The richness of the web of coupled reactions is far greater if exergonic and endergonic reactions can be coupled, than if only exergonic reactions can couple. In turn, the more complex the web of coupled reactions, together with the chance that molecules in the web are catalysts for the same reactions, the easier it is to form collectively autocatalytic sets. There may well be a selective advantage in the formation of CAS to link exergonic and endergonic reactions.
Thus a central point.
IF exergonic and endergonic processes are linked, there is no point in eating unless a work cycle is completed. It is useless to take in food, or a renewed energy source, (the second explosive charge placed in the base of the cannon), if a work cycle is not completed. Work cycles are necessary to the efficacy of feeding if exergonic and endergonic processes are linked.

But...

Real cells need both energy, and to perform thermodynamic work cycles by which spontaneous (exergonic) and non-spontaneous (endergonic) processes are linked into large webs of cyclic and cross cyclic processes, which are in fact work cycles. At present we know that simple substances, such as pyrophosphate, might serve as driving energy sources; but that might still be a trivial extension from purely exergonic CAS, driven by pyrophosphate.
Real cells use proton gradients, e.g., mitochondria use ATP to drive endergonic reactions. We have little theory about the emergence of work cycles in protolife, although we know that life is a non-equilibrium process. From the above, if we link exergonic and endergonic processes, there must be completed work cycles for food to be useful. As Schrodinger said in What is Life? we eat negentropy and excrete entropy. However, Schrodinger missed the need for work cycles if exergonic and endergonic processes are linked. We have had no theory for how far-from-equilibrium cells do work cycles. Carnot showed maximum energy efficiency for work cycles if performed infinitely slowly, i.e., adiabatically. Although, if the work cycle is needed for cell or protocell reproduction, such a cell will lose the Darwinian race, implying that energy efficiency must be the wrong concept.
So, why do we eat? Ingest, take in information etc. Act as a negative entropy system? We need 'negative negative entropy' to maintain the system? The same as quantum computer scientists have realized. Wells, memory... to minimize dissipation, scattering, negative interference? Negative interference destroys coherence and collapse into decoherence.

With Tommi Aho and Olli Yli-Harja at the Tampere University of Technology Finland, we [27] have taken a model of E. coli metabolism, calculated biomass production rate per unit fuel use rate, plotted on the Y axis versus fuel (glucose) use rate on the X axis. We find a unimodal distribution with a maximum at a finite rate of glucose utilization per unit time, a power efficiency maximization point, which seems interesting because it picks out a preferred displacement from chemical equilibrium, maximizing the efficiency of cell reproduction per unit fuel used. This criterion is related to K, not R selection in ecology, i.e., selection, not for a high reproduction rate, but for sustained reproduction when food resources are limited. If this is a general condition in life, for example in bacterial colonies, or ecosystems, we may have found a principle for an optimal power efficiency in the work cycles of life.
Current work shows that this theory fits the empirical data available somewhat better than the standard model of “most rapid growth.” More bacteria tune their growth rate based on their density by quorum sensing, perhaps bringing bacterial colonies to a power efficiency optimum. When power efficiency is maximized, heat production should be minimized such that, a maximum amount of the energy available to cells is going into reproduction of cells, not into waste heat. If this is correct, life does NOT maximize entropy production and flattening energy gradients, but maximizes power efficiency per unit food utilized, under K selection, at a specifiable optimal displacement from equilibrium where it may minimize entropy production compared to reproduction rate.
Andrulis about particle-wave Unity (not duality):
The gyromodel clarifies how a quantum has both wave and particle qualities: as one particle oscillates between two extreme gyrostates, its gyratory path creates an undulating pattern that is detected as a wave. When many particles oscillate around the same or different singularities, they create constructive or destructive waveforms. When the gyromodel is considered as a gyre, it manifests classical wave characteristics: wavelength, amplitude, and frequency. When considered as a quantum, it exhibits particle characteristics: translational, rotational, and vibrational movement. The gyromodel thus accounts for particle spin.
A bit summaristic. I would want some description about different kinds of spin and particles. He also talk of gyres as linking macrocosmos (GR) to microcosmos (QM) but nothing about SR as link and its spacetime model. Nothing about Zero Points as infinite points, grids or dynamos, binding together. Not much of physics at all. This is a typical biologist, thinking he doesn't need physics? This I cannot accept. About antimatter:
An outstanding question in physics is why there is so little antimatter in the physical universe [119,120]. Microcosmically, the tertiary electrogyre shows the electron cycling out the thermodynamic support of the triphoton. Given synchiral organization of the tertiary majorgyre gyrobase, the electron destabilizes and ultimately collapses due to the synchiral sub2gyre (not shown) in lieu of the antichiral subgyre, modeling the positron. The extreme creatodestructive swing of the electrogyre thus provides an explanation for the fleeting presence, or absence, of antimatter in the universe.
Really no 'explanation'. (Compare to annihilation of vortex video. Abelian Higgs Model 2+1 dimensions ~ superconducting vortices annihilating to oscillons by Joel Thorarinson). Andrulis just talks of an collapse, and not the energetic addition of forces, nor the reason why we have antimatter as counterbalancing force for gravity.
He establish strict non-cognitive meanings for learning and memory. The Machine model. "Learning is a continual, unstable, and energetically demanding affair. Gyre learning, or gyrognosis, is the process by which the gyradaptor repels the particle from the gyrobase to the gyrapex. Memory, by comparison, is a relativistically stable and energetically conserving phenomenon. The process of storing IEM (energy) in gyre memory, or gyromnemesis... gyre learning and memory are relative to the gyradaptive singularity."
A Self, but no cognition nor consciousness? No true realizing of a meaning or quale? He talks about qualias: "Information, in turn, is the distinct patterns or organizations of energy and matter, with these patterns detectable by observation and quale".

Theory in eight subsections, each detailing a discrete, empirically defined system that is amenable to theoretical modeling: visible matter, water, organic matter, phosphomembrane, RNA, protein, DNA, and cell. This theoretical framework concomitantly depicts both the microcosm— the biology, chemistry, and physics of the existing living cell—and the macrocosm—the astrophysical and biogeophysichemical (geospheric, hydrospheric, atmospheric, biospheric) process underlying the evolution of life on Earth. Hence, subdividing this framework into separate parts defined by scale, by field, by topic, or by evolutionary spacetime is not scientifically appropriate for modeling life in toto.
Meaning of Life.
Life has many definitional meanings but lacks a complete and consistent scientific explanation. In this work, I have pursued and arrived at a scientific answer to the Schrödingerian question, “What is Life? [1].” Traditionally, the living cell is commonly called “animate” and all other biospheric and cellular chemicals and molecules are called “inanimate.” However, this theory and the law of vortex motion prove that all these physical systems gyrate and are, as such, “animated.” Moreover, theory-defined laws of unity and correspondence require that life and Earth evolve as one, with thermodynamically appropriate conditions (the fitness of the biosphere [788,789]). Unexpectedly, then, this theory reveals that Earth—or, for that matter, any celestial, physical, chemical, and molecular system—is alive, that is, synonymous with life. Given this definitional and conceptual upheaval, I propose that a very open and candid discussion of the meaning of life—well beyond this text—is in order. On this topic, it may be useful to consider how scientifically redefining life elucidates non-scientific, eudaemonic meanings of “life,” “living,” or “alive,” related to ontology, consciousness, sentience, behavior, vocation, or social interactions.
The gyre models the living universe perfectly. I have been unable to find one system, particle, event, or process—at any point or stage leading up to or during the origin of life—that does not consent to modeling onto the gyre form. In other words, there is no “before” or “after” the gyre in a spacetime sense; the gyre is evolutionarily and existentially omnipresent.
As concluding remark:
In science and theory, the principle of parsimony dictates that the most straightforward, plain, and frugal model of an observation or set thereof is more favorable and likely right. As my theoretical framework coalesces a vast amount of accumulated scientific evidence into one neat, lawful, and interconnected modular structure, it abides by this principle. In conclusion, this catholic theory provides an innovative and elegant solution to the origin, evolution, and nature of life in the cosmos. I humbly offer my theory as a viable system for knowing life.
This paper must be seen as premature, with no discussion and links to other ideas. And it is very far from a theory. He makes Life reductionistic, ordinary matter, like a computer intelligence, and doesn't explain how it differ from ordinary matter. Abelian and non abelian math? He says it is non-mathematical? No funding source supported this work. no, certainly not.

I did not provide gyrosystems to model much of the scientific evidence related to astrophysics, particle physics, and cosmology before the electrogyre, nor did I integrate organismal, ecological, and ethological data after the cellulogyre. I predict that further gyromodel application will reveal its explanatory breadth and power. For example, given that complexity theorists find there to be a unifying organization in ecosystems, language, and economics.
But the scaling-question? The problem of thermodynamics in open systems? Does this paper really 'explain' anything? Testable? He says there are tests. To me it looks more like a scientific frame or overview, very similar to the theory TGD, but lifeless, without consciousness and cognitions. He wants to redefine Life, yes, but is this the way? Everyone can feel themselves how a stone differ from a cell or animal. No, I am not satisfied. But as idea it is interesting. Just replace the gyre with a cone. This is very far from the beautiful TGD Universe.
The aminogyre makes some very profound and testable predictions about the specificity of the genetic code and how proteins behave, lengthen and shorten, and fold and unfold in response to physical and biometabolic changes or changes in genetic information content of RNA. -well this is his speciality, so he should know.

SYMPOSIUM OF QUANTUM-INFORMATIONAL MEDICINE QIM 2011:
HOLISTIC APPROACHES & TECHNIQUES BASED ON ACUPUNCTURE & CONSCIOUSNESS
Belgrade, 23-25 September 2011

EDITORS NOTE p.12-14, D. Raković, M. Mićović, S. Arandjelović

ACUPUNCTURE-BASED & CONSCIOUSNESS-BASED HOLISTIC MEDICINE:
QUANTUM-INFORMATIONAL PSYCHOSOMATIC FRAMEWORK


Contemporary medicine has put its emphasis on „alopatic-dosed non-economic“ highly pharmaceutic-oriented medicine technologies. On the contrary, in the past years more attention is payed to bioadequate „homeopatic-dosed economic“ bioresonant quantum-informational medicine technologies, related to usage of such values of the field energy, appearing in normal functioning of human organism [1–4]. On these lines, contemporary investigations of psychosomatic diseases imply the necessity of application of holistic methods, oriented to healing the person as a whole and not disease as a symptom of disorder of the whole, suggesting their macroscopic quantum origin [3,4].

In the focus of these quantum-holistic methods are body's acupuncture system and consciousness – which have quantum-informational structure of quantum-holographic Hopfield-like associative neural network, within the Feynman propagator version of Schrödinger equation [5] – with very significant quantum-holographic psychosomatic implications [3]. In this context, it should be noted that Resonant Recognition Model (RRM) of biomolecular recognition implies that on the biomolecular level information processing is going on in the inverse space of Fourier spectra of the primary sequences of biomolecules [6], similarly to (quantum) holographic ideas that cognitive information processing is going on in the inverse space of Fourier spectra of the perceptive stimuli [7], thus supporting idea on quantum-holographic fractal coupling of various hierarchical levels in biological species.

In the context of quantum-informational bioresonant therapies [3,4,8,9], their goal would be a resonant re-emitting of corresponding band of electromagnetic (EM) spectrum of microwave/ultralowfrequency-modulated radiation of the treated psychosomatically disordered (palpatory painful) state (as one of hundreds possible disordered states) thus enabling that its initial memory attractor is resonantly excited becoming more shallower and wider on the account of deepening of the (energy-dominating) attractor of healthy acupuncture (palpatory painless) state – which is then altogether quantum-holographically projected on the lower EM quantum-holographic cellular level, thus changing the expression of genes [3]. In this context, homeopathy might be also categorized into quantum-informational bioresonant therapies, as (non)disolved homeopathic initial substance [10-12] with characteristic EM memory-attractor states (like any other substance, as demonstrated by muscle test of the Applied kineziology [13]), can interact with macroscopic quantum-sensory EM level of the acupuncture system/consciousness and imprint inthere its program of homeopathic correction.

On the other hand, in the context of quantum-informational meridian (psycho)therapies [3,14], via simultaneous effects of visualization of the treated (psychologically traumatic) problem and tapping/touching upon the selected acupuncture points, new boundary conditions are imposed in the energy-state space of the acupuncture system/consciousness, and memory attractor of the initial psychosomatic disorder becomes shallower and wider, with greater overlap and followed associative integration into memory attractor of normal (energy-dominating) ego-state. In this context, techniques of energy healing of the acupuncture system/consciousness [15], positively-visualizing meditation healing [16], and various psychotherapeutic techniques for recognition/integration of psychological conflicts and personality growth [17]) might be also categorized into quantum-informational therapies, via introspective emotional/ traumatic excitation with imposed new (psychologically healing) boundary conditions in the energy-state space of the acupuncture system/consciousness.

In the same context it is important to make half-a-year diagnostics and balansing of the acupuncture system, whose disbalanse presumably originates from the restituted patient’s mental loads from his non-reprogrammed mental transpersonal environment of the quantum-holographic collective consciousness [3] (as supported by the Tibetan pulse diagnostics, enabling precise diagnosis of psychosomatic disorders not only of the patient himself but also of his family members and enemies [18]).

This implies that memory attractors of quantum-holographic network of collective consciousness might be treated as psychosomatic collective disorders which represent generalized field-related quantum-holistic records (including inter-personal finally-reprogramable nonlocal loads, via hesychastic prayer or circular psychotherapies from all relevant meta-positions included in the problem [3]) – which might represent basis of quantum-informational medicine of collective consciousness.

So, on the basis of this quantum-holographic context, it might be said that three front lines of integrative psychosomatic medicine do exist [3]: (1) Spirituality and circular (psycho)therapies from all relevant meta-positions, with possibility of permanent erasing of mutual memory attractors on the level of collective consciousness; (2) Eastern (quantum)holistic medicine and non-circular (psycho)therapies, whose efforts temporary erase memory attractors on the level of acupuncture system/individual consciousness, and prevent or alleviate their somatization, as a consequence of the indolence on the first level; (3) Western symptomatic medicine, whose activities on the somatic level via immunology, pharmacology, biomedical diagnostics and surgery hinder or soothe somatized consequences of the carelessness on the first two levels. It should be stressed, that necessary activities on the second and third levels, with neglect of the first level, have a consequence of further transfer of memory attractors on the level of individual and collective consciousness in this and further generations, thus accumulating quantum-holographic loads which afterwards cause not only illnesses, but also interpersonal fights, wars, and other troubles.

Symposium “Quantum-Informational Medicine QIM 2011: Acupuncture-Based & Consciousness-Based Holistic Approaches & Techniques” provides fundamental quantum-informational framework for better understanding of the nature of psychosomatic diseases as well as limitations of the healing methods, which might help in developing strategies for psychosomatic integrative medicine in the 21st century.

MODERN VIEWS OF MECHANISMS & CLINICAL EFFECTS OF MM EM RADIATION
B. P. Grubnik (Ukraine) Abstract. Electromagnetic radiation of a millimeter range (ERHF) has versatile influence on a human body and, first of all, on processes of regulation and homeostasis maintenance. Realization of this influence is appreciably provided at the expense of subcellular, cellular mechanisms of regulation of functions and is caused by a number of features. One of the cores, its multilevel character, is: effects of influence are shown at all levels of the biological organization of an organism. In the mechanism of influence ERHF on a human body unique feature is possibility of its resonant interaction with endogenic ERHF. ERHF affects practically all known types of cages (nervous, muscular, reception, etc.) in modeling systems of any level of the organization of biological object. Mechanisms of this influence are defined by specificity of arising changes of functional parameters of a cage, its separate components caused by influence of the given kind of radiation at molecular and sub-molecular level of the organization of a cage. Possibility of updating under the influence of ERHF physics – chemical properties of a plasmatic membrane, activity of enzymes, ionic transport, permeability of cellular membranes, processes of aggregation of cages – are shown. The expressed influence of ERHF on electric activity of separate neuron is shown. Influence of Microwave Resonance Therapy (МRТ) on a sick organism promotes restoration of an aerobic way of recycling of glucose by cells. The extensive clinical and experimental material is testifying changes of the immune status of sick people and after influence of MRT the activity of immune cells is saved up. It is shown that the irradiation of blood of ulcer patients in vitro leads to restoration of the lowered metabolic activity of leukocytes, fagocytic activity of neutrofills, and monocytes. MRT normalizing impact on coagulation system is observed at diseases of cardiovascular system, in particular stenocardias. Usage of MRT at sick of hypertensive illness of I stage restores compensatory possibilities of cardiovascular system, with favorable normalizing impact on hemodynamics. MRT is effective at treatment of gastro duodenal ulcers, at neurologic patients, in complex treatment of patients with hyperplastic processes in a uterus, treatment of gynecologic diseases, in treatment orthopedic, diseases of an urological profile, at treatment of a chronic obstructive bronchitis, in treatment of oncological patients of SH-1Y stage, at sick of a cerebral atherosclerosis, in preventive maintenance and treatment of paresis, a gastro enteric path after operations, treatment of a children's cerebral paralysis. Primary effects concern the general for cages of an organism of the processes underlying ability to live – fabric breath, mechanisms of electronic carrying over. Secondary effects of display of influence of MRT on biological object are defined by hierarchy of levels of the organization peculiar for given biological object. At higher levels of the organization of metaphytes (organic system, level of a complete organism), effects of influence MRT cover the increasing range of displays. At these levels of the biological organization, the increasing role is played by normalization of broken regulation mechanisms – hormonal, nervous, immune, and restoration of the broken functions of separate tissue, bodies, systems of bodies, adaptation-compensatory organism systems. The analysis of results of the usage of MRT in clinical practice allows to conclude that efficiency of microwave resonance therapy is defined not only specifically on the concrete form of diseases, but also in depth of infringement adaptive-compensatory organism systems, convertibility of organic changes in bodies and fabrics. The extensive actual material testified to the various parties of the ERHF influence on biological objects is the basis for the further expansion of a range of searches of applied use of methods of MRT in medicine.

ON QUANTUM PHYSICS OF THE ALIVE AND QUANTUM MEDICINE
S. P. Sitko, I. Chervony (Ukraine) Abstract. Quantum Physics of the Alive is based on the definition of the Alive (in its distinction from the Dead-inanimate) as a fourth level of quantum organization of Nature (after nuclear, atomic and molecular levels). Self-consistent potential of each living object is formed in accordance with genome as a laser of mm-range wavelength. Such a notion concerning the Alive, grounded on theoretical considerations, clinical material and the direct experiments, allows us to cast a fresh glance on the fundamental problems of biology and not only on them…

THE ANALYSIS OF BIOLOGICAL SIGNALS AND GENETICALLY DETERMINED
FUNCTION OF AUTONOMIC NERVOUS SYSTEM
B. Milovanović, V. Radivojević, S. Mutavdžin, B. Milovanović, T. Krajnović (Serbia) Abstract. It is very known fact that according to some new studies hypertension and resting heart rate are genetically determined. According to some studies heart rate variability is the constant related to type of autonomic pattern. Owing to this fact that function of autonomic nervous system is constant, the treatment of diseases could be evaluated using different groups related to type of dysfunction. This is the first but very important step in the development of general principles of personalised medicine. In order to reveal right type of autonomic disorder we used short and long term of HRV analysis with special Ansa Scan Software. A comprehensive study protocol was done including finger blood pressure variability (BPV) and heart rate variability (HRV) beat-to-beat analysis and nonlinear analysis, 24-hour Holter ECG monitoring with QT and HRV analysis, 24-hour blood pressure (BP) monitoring with systolic and diastolic BPV analysis, cardiovascular autonomic reflex tests, cold pressure test, and mental stress test. The patients were also divided into sympathetic and parasympathetic groups, depending on predominance in short term and long term spectral analysis. In the second level of treatment of patients, we used drugs which are in complementary relationship to the type of autonomic pattern.

HOMEOPATHY: ENERGY-INFORMATIONAL HOLISTIC VIEWPOINT
L. Trifunović (Serbia) Abstract. Homeopathy is a medical system founded by the German doctor and chemist Samuel Christian Hahnemann (1755 – 1843) who had profound insight into life, the human body, health and disease. Only recently modern scientific disciplines, such as quantum physics, have started to explain the discoveries to which Hahnemann came intuitively. Homeopathy, contrary to conventional western medicine, is based on the belief that humans are much more than their material physical body. Homeopathy recognizes levels of existence that are not perceivable by our five senses. The core of our being is made of energy, our vital force. It abides at the energy level, but manifests itself on three different levels. The most subtle level of its manifestation is the mental level where it manifests as thoughts, the next level is our emotional level where it manifests as emotions, and on the physical level its manifestation is material body. When the vital force is in its natural state of balance, its ideal state, it is manifested as mental, emotional and physical health. However, if our vital force is out of balance it is considered in homeopathy as disease. This disease will be expressed by our vital force as pathological symptoms on the mental, emotional and physical levels, extending the concept of disease that classical medicine upholds. For homeopathy disease is possible only at the energy level. Symptoms on the mental, emotional and physical level are only the external, visible manifestation of the disease. In homeopathy influences on the vital force that throw it out of balance are called miasms. Miasm is a word of Greek origin which means pollution, impurity, or stain. Hippocrates was the first to use word miasm to explain how diseases are spread by air, water, or other ways. If we treat a single case of pneumonia we can heal it as an acute illness without understanding of miasms. However, if it reoccurs with other illnesses of the respiratory tract, this means there is a tendency towards these diseases. Our aim is to address the tendency and we cannot heal it without the understanding of miasms. Miasms are pathological energy fields that influence the vital force and keep it out of balance. This causes a predisposition towards different kinds of diseases that occur repeatedly, or towards a chronic disease with various complications and the onset of low immunity. As miasms are energetic influences, they could be treated only by other energetic influences, which can be homeopathic remedies. The therapeutic effects of homeopathic remedies are not based on biochemical reactions as in classical medicine, but on the interaction of energies.

CHINESE CONCEPT OF FIVE PHASES (WU XING - 五行) IN THE LIGHT OF SYSTEMS SCIENCE
N. Mišić (Serbia) .... Therefore, we first tried to unify these concepts and then to bring them in connection with certain mathematical, physical and biological systems and models, with particular reference to the meridian system. This analysis enabled the comprehension of Five Phases as a hierarchical 3D model through the self-similarity symmetry, which is consistent with the observed fractal organization in living systems and with a holistic view of the human body, providing the support for Integrative Medicine.

HARMONIZATION OF HUMAN BODY SYSTEM BY HARMONIZED EM RADIATION
WHICH EXCITED LONGITUDINAL MECHANICAL WAVES under 2m IN BIOMOLECULES
A. S. Tomić, G. Marjanović, R. Vojnić-Tunić, Dj. Koruga (Serbia) Abstract. The opto-magnetic method [1] is successful applicable to skin properties determination and description. We applied method on “bio-resonant massager”, device produced and applied to bio-medical purposes by Rudolf Vojnić-Tunić, specially adapted Tesla’s coil, working with 4 W power and impetus on frequency in range kHz. How works special camera and software of opto-magnetic device, we demonstrated on example of young man with skin problems, before and after application of Tesla’s coil massager. In these circumstances positive influence of harmonized electro-magnetic radiation in frequent band 880 Hz-125 MHz appears as source of longitudinal low energy mechanical waves in bio-molecules with under 2m, or wave length equal and shorter than human body length. Belong to holistic concept in medicine, it assume fact that human body works as system which presumption for function are harmonization of all subsystem into human body system. According to our previous theoretical investigation [2] we concluded that mechanism of influence to bio-molecules presents non-linear process known as maser effect.

MADU MAGNETOTHERAPY
D. Mandić, D. Đorđević, D. Cvetković, S. Kažić, J. Popović (Serbia)
and its therapies, in bone fractures, osteoneogenesis, rheumatoid artritis, angiogenesis, and neuroneogenesis.
Abstract. The Earth magnetism belongs to one of four natural central forces that have made significant contribution to survival and health preservation of all the life. The substitutional therapy of MADU new medical technology is based on application of two inventions acclaimed as patents and registered as medical devices. The MADU therapy is aknowledged as new health technology in 2007 by Ministry of Health, Republic of Serbia (No. 022-04-19/2006-07), and it includes the application of Trap for shell fragments (first patent) for displacement and evacuation of foreign ferrous remaining fragments, as well as MADU strip (second patent) with wide application field. The confirmed indications, based on experience in medical practice up to now, are: (i) Faster and more complete development of callus in bone fracture; (ii) Delivery of medicaments with ferromagnetic and paramagnetic properties; (iii) Non-invasive displacement and evacuation of ferrous foreign bodies; (iv) Preventive and curative with vein deformations; (v) Immobilization of thrombus for its faster rechanellization; (vi) More lavish oxygen delivery by blood into the areas of reduced micro-circulation; (vii) Reduced swelling in the area under the influence of directed deep magnetic field; (viii) Improved viscosity in the arterial and vein blood vessels; and (ix) Faster and improved regeneration of various tissues, especially cartilage. The subtle influence of permanent magnetic field increases and improves metabolic processes and thus stimulates regenerative processes. The processes of cartilage regeneration, angioneogenesis and neuroneogenesis are of great significance for the mankind. The ancient knowledge (as reflexology, acupuncture...) is very effectively used as the basis of opening gap junction channels - prainformative centers in the organisms. The knowledge accumulated throught centuries of human history is explained and scientificaly approved in 1980s. It was more thoroughly studied and presented in the PhD study about magnetic fields, including MADU (D. Djordjević, MD PhD, 2007/2008). The positive results are obtained in treating disorders of osteoarticular system (ISCD-10, M 00-M 99), as well as in treating disorders of peripheral vasscular system (ISCD-10, I 70-I 99). Both of these groups of common diseases, the most sucessfully treated, have huge social-economic and medical relevancy. The MADU therapy could be applied as additional therapy together with contemporary medical procedures. Having in mind the experience gathered through application of MADU and its effects on local and global level, indicational field is getting more and more wider while contraindications and precautions are narrowing down. Thus, this type of magnetotherapy belongs to the future.
bone fractures: Abstract. The human organism does not function solely on the basis of biological and biochemical cellular reactions, but humans are also electromagnetic beings. In cases of very slow healing, the complicated fractures were treated by MADU magnetotherapy with aim to improve the healing of the bone, as MADU field promotes and stimulate calcium ion impact in bone tissue, with very rich vascularization. The gap junction channels (GJCs) are special informational system in bones, which connect not only osteocytes but also all smooth muscle cells in blood vessels of lavishly vascularized bone tissue. The molecular mechanism of electromagnetic field (EMF) and magnetic field (MF) affect metabolism of bone cells in the course of fields’ interference with signal transduction processes, included in hormonal and transmitter, particularly, cytokine regulation of osteoblast function, especially their proliferation and differentiation. The MADU inhibition of IL-1 and TNF-α production disable multiplication of fibroblasts activated by them from a surrounding area, and thereby the replenishment of a defect. More rapid maturation of connective tissue is achieved by MADU, so that increase in osteoblasts activity and Ca2+ metabolism result in increase of minerals deposited into a bone matrix, not only at the surface, but also within a bone depth.

bone regeneration: The possibilities of regeneration of bone tissue through the use of static magnetic field (SMF) are great, especially when the SMF is oriented to North (N) magnetic pole face turned towards the skin. .... The research of the effects of SMF at various inductions of exposition of osteoblast calvary cells in culture have shown dose-dependent proliferation and growth of cells during the activation from static G1 phase to S phase, which increases synthesis of DNA and accelerates cell proliferation.

RA: MADU magnetic strips, which create magnetic deep unipolar field (shortened MADU) with penetration of 55 cm into human body. It was approved by the Ministry of Health of Serbia in 2007. The therapeutic effects include antinflammatory and analgetic effects of magnetic field, activation of enzymes (particularly mettaloenzymes), activation of K/Na pump which promotes shifting of pH value of treated cartilage towards more basic levels which in turn promotes regeneration of chondrocytes and osteocytes. Considering characteristics of magnetic water, continuous stimulation by MADU achieved long-lasting effects in patients with degenerative disease like coxarthrosis and gonarthrosis. ..... No side effects of MADU therapy have been noted. In conclusion, MADU method provides the state of renewed joint space in respect of cartilage and bone and their maintenance in patients with rheumatoid arthritis. The process of reparation of the joint space with all the following benefits regarding pain and function, recommends this new non-invasive method as supplementary, with full respect of all scientific and therapeutic methods.

Angiogenesis: The MADU strip is based on MAgnetic Deep Unipolar oriented static magnetic field (SMF), using possibilities of reflexogenic therapy on humans. ... After 2.5 years the clinical examination showed that leg was vital, with normal skin temperature and the outpatient could walk. The leg was saved due to developed microcirculation, oxygenation through new-formed small blood vessels successfully providing vitality of the leg. In conclusion, the applied MADU strips with the guaranteed optimal magnetic field intensity lasting for 10 years, is providing long lasting protective activity in the area of the diseased blood vessels and poor tissue nutrition. The initiation of regenerative processes is performed due to known pathophysiology mechanisms changing acid reaction into alkaline, providing regenerative processes. This medical device is environment-friendly, the method is non-invasive, complement to modern medical procedures. No side effects are noticed.

Neuroregeneration: One or more magnets, in the form of a strip, are placed on the surface of the body on reflexogenic zones (RZ) and focused like a magnetophore on reflexogenic points (RP), with the north face turned towards the skin [North (N) pole or Negative pole (-)]. The first observations of regenerative processes in sensitive and motoric function of injured nerves were detected from 1992 to 1998 while we treated wounded people by Trap for shell fragments. It was scientifically proven that medium SMF of 1-1000 mT has influence on the various biological systems, including morphology, differentiation and/or proliferation of many types of cells. The experimental research has shown that cell migration, measured by the cell’s diffusion constant, depends on the exposition time and the kind of cells and does not depend on vertical or horizontal direction of applied SMF of 30-120 mT. In neural progenitor cells, cultivated under the SMF of 100 mT, exsist significant increase of expression of mRNA for a few types of proneural gen activators, such as Mash1, Math1 and Math3, together with decreased expression of mRNA for repressor type Hes5. The transitional increase of binding DNA nuclear transcription activation factor protein 1, formed from the members of Fos and Jun family in cultivated hyppocampal neurons of the rats, was found. The rats were under the SMF influence of 100 mT during15 min. The significant potenciation of Ca2+ influx mediated by N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors was shown, with decrease of expression microtubule-associated protein (MAP-2) neuronal marker throught the expression Ntan1 gen, which includes ubiquitin-proteasome proteolysis process, as so called N-end rule pathway in hyppocampal neurons cultivated under SMF's influence of 100 mT but without cell death. It was detected that influence of SMF causes neuro reactions, confirmed at the maturation of non-matured cells in a culture of neurons of rat's hyppocampus and achieved throught the modulation of expression specially NMDA receptor's subunits. It was proven that neurit sprouting of chicken's embrional ganglia is significantely increased in SMF of 22,5-90 mT. These discoveries give us a hope for the more efficient healing of many neurogical and psychiatric disorders and diseases.

PRAYER AND/OR PSYCHOTHERAPY
V. Jerotić (Serbia) In 21st century, there are numerous worth, less worth and worthless psychotherapeutic methods, at disposal of disordered psychical life of people. But, basically, both prayer and psychotherapy (as ways of self-knowing) are necessary for (both healthy and sick) people.

HEALTH & EXPERIENCE OF HIGHER STATE OF CONSCIOUSNESS (UNIFIED FIELD)
Ž. Trišić (Serbia) Abstract. The identification of the unified field by modern physics is only the first glimpse of a new area of investigation that underlies all disciplines of knowledge, and which can be explored not only through objective science but through a new technology of consciousness (Transcendental Meditation, TM), based on capability of human mind to settle into a state of deep silence while remaining awake, and therein to experience a completely unified, simple, and unbounded state of awareness, called pure consciousness, which is quite distinct from our ordinary waking, sleeping or dreaming state of consciousness. This experience is not on the level of thinking, theoretical conjecture, or imagination, but on the level of direct experience. So, even though is a common belief that the unified field of physics is an objective reality of nature while consciousness is a subjective experience, and that the two belong therefore to different categories of existence (one is material another is mental and the two cannot be equated) – we see them as two different modes to approach same reality, unified field or pure consciousness. Each individual nervous system, when refined through practice of TM technique is an instrument through which Unified field becomes accessible for inquiry and investigation through direct experience. Thus, modern physics through its objective method of inquiry has glimpsed a unified field as underlying all of nature, source of order in nature, while by direct experiencing it via TM technique we get influence onto our physiology, which starts working in a more balanced and ordered way. So, we see that TM technique has an important practical application in the area of health. According to Ayurveda (traditional science of life and health) all sickness comes from imbalance. In terms of physiological functioning this means perfect integration and balance from the biochemical and molecular levels to the macroscopic, organismic level.

MAN AS A QUANTUM-WAVE PSYCHOSOMATIC SYSTEM
G. I. Brekhman (Israel, Russia) Abstract. The author considers the Man from a position of the theory of wave–particle duality of a matter. It has opened existence in a nature of ways of interaction and information interchange between genes, cells, persons, about which we did not suspect or knew a little. The concept of duality has allowed understanding the riches of the information contained in the man that has enabled to consider him as a psychosomatic system and to explain some features of thinking and behaviour of the people, sources of their talents and problems, and also feature of functioning in a society and relations with each other. In the certain measure the concept of duality gives an explanation of reasons of diseases, and gives interpretation to methods of treatment, which (despite of the efficiency) ascribe to alternative and do not admit by official medicine. Author describes the uterine myoma as a psychosomatic process, manifesting itself in ischemic uterus disease. He substantiated and used the holistic approach and nonstandard method of psychoelectroregulation in these patients which gave the long-term results.

BIOENERGY, BIOFIELD, AURA: ON THEIR NATURE AND PIP CAMERA MEASURING
Lj. Ristovski (Serbia) Abstract: There are a variety of doctrinal descriptions of the bioenergies and biofields in different AM systems, which are expressed in different terms and vocabularies, because their origins belong to the different culture traditions. This variety of doctrinal descriptions leads to the irreconcilable differences between the different AM systems, as well as between the majority of them and actual science. However, the supporters of some AM systems exert a trend to express the contents of theirs doctrines using the terms and vocabulary of actual science. In this way, they facilitates the beginning of a dialog with actual science, as well as the reaffirmation of many serious scientific investigations of the phenomena in alternative medicine, which are accomplished during last almost five decades on the periphery of the actual science. In the further, it will be considered the variations of AM doctrines which manifest an interest to establish a dialog with actual science by accepting the terms and vocabulary of actual science, independently on the manner by that the doctrine content is expressed. The main objective of this paper is to show that a small effort will help to achieve consensus on the terminology used in the AM doctrines with scientific terminology. This will help to terms with the same name means the same, although we cannot expect that it will obviously speed up the convergence of doctrine and scientific views about the AM phenomena. Nevertheless, this progress can be expected because the large difference is between felt and measured bioenergy, between seen and photographed. Therefore, the attention is devoted to experimental techniques that allow any type of detection or visualization of the subtle entities of alternative medicine (bienergy, biofield, aura). For reasons that will be later explained, particular attention will be devoted to the PIP (Polycontrast Interference Photography) imaging, which is the unique real time imaging technique. Certainly the most important result of the application of PIP imaging system is the visualization of the energy changes in the human aura, which may be due to bio-energetic, or any other AM therapeutic treatment. It should be noted that the PIP system provides information that enables qualitative analysis but not quantitative analysis of the bio-energetic phenomena. In addition, it is recommended as a diagnostic tool also. However this recommendation must be accepted very cautiously, as will be discussed later.

REIKI & SPIRITUALITY
M. Milenković, M. Mićović (Serbia) Abstract. Reiki is an ancient spiritual-energetic method of healing, usually considered to be Japanese, and it is applied along with methods of modern medicine in health care institutions around the world. For many years now Reiki has been considered to be No 1 method of self-help in the world. Reiki primarily helps with reduction of stress, with relaxation, and is also used for mobilizing/activating all defense mechanisms in the human body. It improves the efficiency of all bodily functions, and allows us to reach a state of harmony between the physical, mental and emotional levels of our being. The highly developed, non-standard approach to Reiki allows everyone to acquire selected techniques and use them successfully for self-help, without having to attend traditional training classes, usually required for the Reiki method. Combining of Reiki techniques with acupressure, with breathing and stretching exercises, as well as with mechanisms of the human reflexes and mental orientation, can allow everyone to find their own ways to prevent further development of various health problems, caused primarily by stress. The use of self-help to reduce stress, to relax, improve concentration and memory capacity, to improve one’s mood in general and increase the energy potential of the body, is necessary and easily applied in everyday life. Association Reiki of Serbia is founded in 2001 and has several hundreds members, actively f Serbia is founded in 2001 and has several hundreds members, actively participating in coninuously organized educations and seminars. In participating in coninuously organized educations and seminars. In 2008 Reiki was formally acknowledged by Committee for Regulation of Traditional Medicine, in Serbian Ministry of Health, as a method of improving general health of people. By establishing these regulations it was officialy enabled to introduce Reiki therapy into medical institutions in Serbia.

QUANTUM TRANSFORMATION
S. Simonovska (Austria) Abstract. Quantum Transformation is a practical application of the Two Points Method in the field of healing and life issues solving. Two Points Methods has its roots in the ancient Hawaiian spiritual technique of Huna, rediscovered independently by Dr. Richard Bartlet (Matrix Energetics) and Dr. Frank Kinslow (Quantum Entrainment), with a great contribution of Andrew Blake (QCT-Quantum Consciousness Transformation). Not only because it is easy, simple to use, and at the same time very effective, but also because of the possibility of combining it with other therapeutic and healing techniques, Two Points Method is spreading through Europe very quickly. When two distinct points on the body or aura get connected, Quantum waves are produced, initiating huge changes on all levels and in all areas of life. Quantum Waves initiation makes changes on a deepest level, altering our Matrix. The Matrix contains our deepest beliefs, in other words, fixed attitudes originated from individual consciousness and different life stages (the childhood, the prenatal period, the birth process, conception or inheritance - karma) and fixed attitudes derived from group or collective consciousness. Those subconscious beliefs are often opposed to our conscious beliefs and they are the main cause of our psychological and physical suffering, as well as many diseases. Faster transformation of subconscious beliefs can be achieved using Quantum Waves, which leads toward change of our reality. The essence of Quantum Transformation is pure consciousness. Pure consciousness is actually pure love. Quantum Transformation is a method that uses love energy for healing purposes. Quantum Transformation workshops, using quantum waves, meditation, music, movement and body work “teach us” through experience how to use the energy of love in healing and combining this method with other healing and energy based methods.

ABIKU PHENOMENON: SPIRITUAL ORIGIN AND TREATMENT OF SELF-DESTRUCTIVENESS
M. Tomšić Akengen (Slovenia) Abstract. The philosophy of Ifa with its origin in Africa, where it has been preserved to this very day by the people of Yoruba, contains the entire opus of understanding a human life, character, predestination, destiny and nature. One of the toughest challenges is how to treat (heal) someone, who is born with the energy of Abiku – born to die prematurely (born to experience premature death). Ifa considers the individual top priority, using all the knowledge and instruments it deals with making the individuals life good here and now, in this life. Everyone is born with some sort of predestination. It is not fate, because if something is fated, then the individual has no way of affecting that. But when something is predestinated, someone can realize that or not, because everyone is responsible for his own life. In life we have all that which we can call good luck: progress, longevity, health, luck… But good goes hand-in-hand with destructive energy, and if we wish to achieve the good, we have to neutralize the bad. We can classify destructive energy into four basic destructive elements: death, sickness, failure and confusion. When we consider a person who has the abiku syndrome, it means that these destructive energies are constantly stalking him and that he is under heavy influence in at least one area by some of these elements. When everything seems to go well, and suddenly it seems as if one of these energies got activated, and it gives out the impression of being out of the person’s control. Spiritually it is considered for people with this energy, that they have been heavily involved in a parallel spiritual world. It is considered that they have their own group in the parallel world, which constantly pulls the person back or make his life here unbearable, and make him wish to leave from here sooner.

ENTHEOGENIC SHAMANISM: ANTHROPOLOGY CATEGORY, TRANSPERSONAL DIMENSION OR PSYCHOTHERAPEUTIC MODEL
Č. Hadži Nikolić (Serbia) Abstract. The most significant dimension of entheogenic shamanistic ritual, being an essence of therapeutic pracice in isolated groups of Amazonia, is that dimension which touches universal themes, from person’s identity to its place in cosmic scheme. This experience is described as transcending boarders of empirical reality, coming out the framework of profane existence and entering into realm of cosmic existence and meeting with most supreme principle. In psychology literature it is frequently called transpersonal experience, as being denoted a mystical experience in religious terminology. The question arises on characteristics of this experience (if it exists) in the framework of shamanistic concept, as according to many experts on shamanism it does not have this (mystical) component being exclusively oriented to practical purposes of healing. According to shamanistic practice in observed groups, these categories are not excluded mutually. On the contrary, they are complementary, with mystical or transpersonal experience in direct function of healing, if this healing is comprehended in the context of shamanistic concept of disease. As in this mystical experience a person is continuously returning back to his mystical trans-subjective roots and beginnings, a shamanistic return into myth past with myth scenes and symbols achieving significant relationship between a person and universe is completely reasonable. This transition from “here and now” into “there and then” means experience of transcending space and time limitations, i.e. coming out form narrow profane human framework and entering into realm of transpersonal experiences. In this context a shamanistic “road” which basically is searching for absolute, undoubtedly does have elements of mystical. Mystical, however, does not exclude practical goals of this road. On the contrary, mystical or let us call it transpersonal or integrative experience, is complementary in respect to these goals. In other words, this experience is in direct function of shamanistic action, in first place of healing.

RECONNECTION: EXAMPLE OF INCREASED REGENERATION OF BONE FRACTURES & MUSCLE DAMAGES

BIOLOGICAL DECODING
A. Frauenkron-Hoffmann (Luxemburg), D. Portić (Serbia) Abstract. Sometimes in past, it has been thought that physical and psychical changes or illness is a result of damnation, or evil faith which affects us from external illness causes. Today we have a rather different view on that particular problem. With latest scientific discoveries it has been proven that sickness is a direct response on stressful situations, which in that given moment can’t be processed on mental or emotional level. We do not become ill by coincidence, illness always has a direct link with things going on in our life. If it comes to resolving the problem, we do not get ill, if not, it becomes biological stress (stress of direct life endangerment) which can be an illness generator apropos symptom on physical level. Illness or dysfunction of organism is influenced by very precise biological laws. Two-phased progression of every illness can be traced (Dr. Hamer): symphathicotony and vagothony. This knowledge serves us in apprising direct course of illness (why this illness and not any other one), as it shows a logical flow on emotional, mental and physical level. Our behavioural patterns have crucial part in shaping our way of responding on stressful situation (just that and not any other way). When in stressful situation, our brain begins searching for every kind of data, information and programs which could bring to its solution. In that moment brain chooses the best possible reaction, and influenced by experience - best behavioural pattern, having only one aim and that is to empower further existence. Our brain memorises primarily three types of data which it uses in stressful situations (Useful Biological Program): (i) all experiences and circumstances since birth to this very moment, followed by emotions and perceptions; (ii) all that we have experienced before we were born, since the moment of conception, even our moment of birth are completely integrated in our system; (iii) everything that our ancestors have experienced is also available to our brain. Decoding can be established by endeavouring toward two directions. First course is establishing and explaining crucial cause of stressful situation, therefore it is of at most importance to take precautions against objective circumstances being the trigger for genesis of a disease, but emotional feeling of the individual itself, so as which behavioural pattern will occur in certain stressful situation (different person react differently on the same kind of stress). Second course is releasing old behavioural patterns and gaining new mental pictures which awake new emotions annulling the old ones at the same time. Images from the past are always the cause of our illness. If we could manage to transform our mental images and to them related emotions, we could live healthier in future. Often just the realisation that there is a choice is enough: Stay devoted to old pattern (which in some cases can represent death) or establish new ones. We are not able to become new people, but we can learn how to control old mechanisms which made are ill in the first place!

CONTRIBUTION OF ANOMALOUS INTENSITIES OF ELECTROMAGNETIC AND MAGNETIC FIELDS IN ETIOPATOGENESIS OF MENTAL DISORDERS AND DISEASES
N. Trifunović, D. Jevdić, A. Jevdić, K. Jevdić (Serbia) Abstract. The aim of this paper is to consider contribution of anomalous intensities of electromagnetic and magnetic fields in etiopatogenesis of mental disorders and diseases. This research has been applying in past 20 years, with objective geophysical evaluation by proton magnetometer produced in USA and geological compass "Brunton". In this period we have examined a couple of hundreds patients with different type of mental disorders (sy anx-depressivum, depression, schizophrenia) both sex and all ages. We applied BPRS scale for sy anx-depressivum, Hamilton scale for depression, and PANSS scale for schizophrenia. Hereby we present several case studies. Results are excellent after the patients spent time in spaces with natural values of EM-M fields. During examination patients were receiving regular medicine (pharmacotherapy). Finally, we will present theoretical model for influence of geomagnetic field and cosmic radiation on the biological evolution.

SIXTY: „NUMBERS ARE LETTERS BY WHICH THE UNIVERSE IS BUILT“
CLASSICAL-QUANTUM AND INFORMATION PHYSICS APPROACH TO LIFE AND MEDICINE
Dj. Koruga (Serbia) Abstract. In this paper serendipity event is presented, which highlights Galileo’s number importance: numbers are letters by which the Universe is built. In our case the simulative effect of the number sixty importance comes from contemporary science: nanotechnology of carbon materials with sixty atoms and molecular structure of clathrin in our brain. However, we found out that roots of number sixty lie hidden in thought of ancient civilization. Moreover, in some way sixty is the part of light (c=lambda x v) as ratio of spatio-temporal unity through wavelength ( in nm) and frequency (v in THz). If we use model of light, of both classical and quantum properties, as model of an existence (life) – then embryogenesis (as the primary quantum process) presents information processing which makes set up of events (with different probabilities) for a life after birth. Which one of these events will happen depends on probability of events in classical information processing during life. Classical and quantum probabilities are complements and compatible to each other. In everyday life this complex manifestation is given as our behavior based on interaction of real-imaginary and rational-irrational pairs dynamics (logic square of our fingerprint).

ONTOGENETIC AND PSYCHOGENETIC INSIGHT INTO THE TRADITIONAL CHAKRAS DOCTRINE
Lj. M. Ristovski (Serbia),,G. S. Davidović-Ristovski (Serbia) Abstract. As it should be expected, the doctrinal theories of traditional medicine obviously belong to the domain of metascience (metaphysics). It means that they are based on revealed truths, which are necessarily expressed by an symbolic and metaphoric language. On the other hand, scientific theories are based on perceived truths, which are expressed by the language, which necessarily excludes the metaphors and symbols. Therefore, symbolic statements, as well as revealed truth, per definitionem cannot be expressed in a rational way, i.e. metascientific content can not be fully expressed in a scientific manner. The aim of this paper is not to translate the traditional (metaphysical) Chakras doctrine into the language of science, but to point out that in that teaching exist the contents which can be scientific interpretated. Namely, Chakras teaching, could survive for so long, only because the practice findings supports it. The traditional medicine practice can not be always explained in a scientific way, but it can not be completely ignored, if they have survived for centuries and millennia, as it is case with Chakras teaching. Specifically, as it will be pointed in this paper, the scientific knowledge about the human ontogenesis and psychhogenesis, can be unambiguously associated with the empirically established findings, which are implicitly included in the Chakras teaching. In addition, based on this correspondence, it is possible to come up to the concept of a psychogenetic explanation of (so called) opening and balancing of chakras. Finally, there are serious indications that the process of opening the chakras can be closely linked to psychiatric regression analysis.

REFLEXOLOGY
D. Djordjević (Serbia), D. Mandić (Serbia) Abstract. Reflexology is a science dealing with mechanisms of origin, development and acting of every kind of reflexes on the all levels of ontophylogenesis. It is interdisciplinary branch of biology, which has its subject, branches, sub-branches, principles, conditions and mechanisms. The subject of reflexology is research on all levels of ontophylogenesis: principles of functioning, mechanisms of origin, development and acting, as well as influence of all kinds of reflexes from the simplest to the most complex. Basic fields of reflexology are: medical reflexology, dentristry (dental) reflexology, veterinary reflexology, animal (zoo) reflexology, and fitoreflexology. Basic branches of reflexology are: reflexodiagnostics, reflexotherapy, reflexoprophylaxis, and reflexoergonomics. Basic methods of reflexology are: physioreflexology, hemioreflexology, and bioreflexology. Basic principles of reflexology are: holographic or quantum-holographic [Tao (holistic) conception or conception of unique wholeness], circulation of energy [meridian’s (Jing-Luo) conception or conception of acupuncture channels (reflexogenic meridians)], ontophylogenic (Haeckel’s law), rhythmic functioning, self-regulation of the body systems, reverberation links (energetics and other influences), action-reaction, reflexogenic aferentation (conditional-unconditional reflex)... In Western medicine, reflexology is a treatment modality which employs only manual pressure to specific areas of the body, usually the feet and the hands, which are thought to correspond to internal organs, in order to generate positive health effects. However, in Eastern medicine and nowadays appearing Integrative medicine, reflexology is an application of any treatment modality on reflexogenic zones, reflexogenic points or reflexogenic meridians (e.g. digitopressure, acupressure, acupuncture, laseropuncture, magnetopuncture, magnetic hammer, moxibustion, cupping, etc.). In this holistic framework, each organism is considered as (quantum-holographic) unique wholeness whose health status is manifested by reflexogenic (acupuncture) zones and their (acupuncture) points, linked in pathes of reflexogenic (acupuncture) meridians. Reflexogenic zones are exteroceptive projections of internal organs on the skin (head, nose, ears, palms, foots), mucous membrane (endonasal, gums, tongue) and iris. Reflexogenic points are locations in which is occuring energy exchange (transformation) with external environment according to the principle of functioning of "body channels" or reflexogenic meridians. Through reflexogenic points as mirrors of the organ status or some individual function, one can regulate disturbed energetic equilibrium between some of organs and body parts, also between wholeness of organism as mikrocosmos and its environment, macrocosmos. Morphofunctional basis of reflexogenic zones, points and meridians is ontophylogenic linkeage of internal organs and all sistems in organisms with the most ancient energy-informational system, which is composed of the gap junction channels network.

CONSCIOUSNESS-BASED HOLISTIC ORIENTED APPROACHES TO PSYCHOTHERAPY
S. Milenković (Serbia) Abstract. Discussed here is creative challenge faced by the new profession of psychotherapy in a new millenium. Creation of consciousness-based holistic spiritual/transpersonal psychotherapy without ego is that challenge. It means basically the transformation of consciousness, of the inner feeling of one’s own existence, as well as the release of the individual form all kinds of conditioning imposed upon one’s by society. It’s characterised by transformation, self-transcendence, and expanded consciousness in which treatment is targeted primarily to the spiritual/transpersonal dimension.

SCIENCE AND BODY PSYNTESIS HOLISTIC APPROACHES.
BODY PSYCHOTHERAPY AND TE-PSYNTESIS
Lj. Klisić (Serbia), A. Djordjević (Serbia) et al
Abstract. Body-Psychotherapy is a distinct branch of Psychotherapy, well within the main body of Psychotherapy, which has a holistic theoretical position. It involves a different and explicit theory of mind-body functioning which takes into account the complexity of the intersections and interactions between the body and the mind. The common underlying assumption is that the body is the whole person and there is a functional unity between mind and body. Directly or indirectly the body-psychotherapist works with the person as an essential embodiment of mental, emotional, social and spiritual life. He/she encourages both internal self-regulative processes and the accurate perception of external reality. Through his/her work, the body-psychotherapist makes it possible for alienated aspects of the person to become conscious, acknowledged and integrated parts of the self. In order to facilitate this transition from alienation to wholeness, the body-psychotherapist works with signs indicating vegetative flow in the organism, muscular hypertension and hypotension, energetic blockage, energetic integration, pulsation and stages of increasing and natural self regulative functioning. And the phenomena of psychodynamic processes of transference, counter- transference, projection, defensive regression, creative regression and various kinds of resistance. Almost one century ago Wilhelm Reich introduced work with self regulative processes and with cosmic superimposition. We are continuing his work here more than 3 decades, within TePsyntesis - Serbian Training School of Body Psychotherapy, founded by Prof. Dr. Ljiljana Klisic in 1976, in Belgrade, Serbia, ex-Yugoslavia. It has all characteristics of Body Psychotherapy schools, but TePsyntesis has also evolved from thirty years of research by Dr. Klisic into drives development and relationship between life force and consciousness, and it has trained more than 200 professionals. TePsyntesis offers also a new meta-theory of drives development: aggression and sexuality. In TePsyntesis we are studying and researching evolution of the basic human instinctual drives: (i) Instinct for self-preservation (aggression), (ii) Instinct for procreation of the species (sexuality). Only in unity of mind and body that opens up a suppressed spiritual dimension, we can approach the whole scope of evolution: (i) Evolution of primitive aggression and destruction towards mature power integrated with developed value system to non-dual power, (ii) Evolution of primitive sexuality towards Bliss and supreme Joy.
