Reflections on acupuncture points as structural holograms

Reflections on acupuncture points as structural holograms

(Expanded from the article of the same name in “Regulationsmedizin” (ML-Verlag, Uelzen), vol. 7, 3/02, pp. 65–67, and 4/02, pp. 82–83)

With this article, I would like to draw your attention to a phenomenon of which most people are probably unaware: the holographic character of acupuncture points. The consequences arising from this are by no means insignificant.

Anyone concerned with holistic (dental) medicine cannot avoid engaging with acupuncture, whether in the sense of acupuncture-point philosophy and/or the practical application of the various acupuncture techniques. In classical TCM, alongside tongue diagnosis, pharmacology and Tuina massage, particular use is made of treating acupuncture points with needles and/or moxa; these are empirically known as energetically distinguished points on the meridians.

As you know, there are different types of points, each with very specific meanings and indications as laid down by the ancient Chinese (e.g. sedation points, tonification points, cardinal points, etc.).

The same applies by analogy to the Indian Veda, where similar points are called marmas.

Whereas ear acupuncture, for example, was accorded only a minor place in Chinese medicine, the modern techniques used in auriculomedicine (Nogier, Bahr) not only map organs with great precision, but also project the meridians and their points onto the ear (Bahr).

Certain filter techniques have identified not only the normal representation zones originally described by Nogier, with the upside-down embryo, but also two further phases, Phi 1 and Phi 2, in each of which the person is shifted by 90 degrees. Thus three different organ areas overlap at the same location on the ear, and a filter (Kodak colour filter 12, yellow) must be used to distinguish which organ is being treated.

These methods have also identified analogous ear points projected onto the body (Bahr), each with a particular association and meaning (e.g. Large Intestine 4 = thalamus).

Finally, Raphael Nogier, the son of Paul Nogier, has listed some locations different from those specified by Bahr (e.g. heart, liver, pancreas).

Kinesiology also uses the acupuncture system, but again with different meanings (e.g. GV 25: R. Utt: amino acids; D. Leber: focal processes in the head; I. Große-Lindemann: hypothalamus).

Peter Mandel's esogetics also uses acupuncture points, but again with different meanings (e.g. YinTang: pineal gland, third molars).

In neural therapy, acupuncture points are used in the form of acusiniatry, i.e. injections of homeopathic remedies for the classically recognised indications, or as Weihe pressure points for diagnosing particular diseases.

In electroneural therapy, 95% of the so-called reaction sites commonly used for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes are identical to acupuncture points, since, in addition to their energetic component, they are also electrically distinguished points in the sense of having lower electrical resistance than adjacent tissue.

Voll used acupuncture points in EAV as electrically distinguished points in electroacupuncture, not only adding further points to the classical acupuncture points, but also discovering an entire new series on special energy pathways, the so-called degeneration vessels after Voll.

We owe the knowledge that acupuncture points have not only an energetic or electrical significance but also an anatomical structure to the investigations of Kellner and Heine.

Kellner found an increased “accumulation of terminal structures with receptor and effector properties” (quoted in Mastalier), in different compositions at different acupuncture points.

Heine eventually identified them as perforations in the superficial fascia containing neurovascular bundles enveloped in loose connective tissue.

Using a highly sensitive infrared camera, Warnke was able to image sweat-gland openings on the fingertips where acupuncture points are otherwise located, and accordingly defined many acupuncture points as sweat-gland openings.

Heine also created an experimental model of an acupuncture point that explains and makes plausible the medication testing of electroacupuncture—a phenomenon rediscovered through measurement by Voll and colleagues (Korthaus, Aschoff, Schmidt) in the 1950s (quoted in Pflaum).

The medication tests mentioned above are now called resonance tests and are also used by various schools of electroacupuncture

(e.g. EAV, BFD, VEGA, ET, Prognos). All refer to the meanings specified by Voll and colleagues.

What these measurements have in common is loading the acupuncture point with an externally supplied current of a few microamperes (approximately 10 microA) at a voltage of 0.9 (EAV)–1.5 (VEGA)–5 (US device, Prognos) volts. In the Prognos system, the measuring current at 5 volts DC is greatly reduced, namely to 0.4–0.5 amperes (for 200 milliseconds). Only the classical acupuncture meridians are measured here, while the degeneration vessels are omitted.

In contrast, Helmut Schimmel includes them in his Electrophysiological Terminal Point Diagnostic System (ETD), measuring acupuncture points without an external current and adhering to the meanings established by Voll.

How can all of this be reconciled, or does the diversity indicate that all these systems are “merely” mental projections and that, although acupuncture points exist, everyone can do whatever they like with them?

The human being is organised according to the pars pro toto principle, i.e. everything can be found in everything; in other words, each cell contains the entire information of the human being, which can be retrieved from it through a wide variety of techniques. Each cell is therefore actually a somatotopic representation.

The human being can consequently be regarded as a hologram, whose defining feature is that the whole can again be recognised in one part.

There are not only structural holograms that manifest anatomically as the familiar somatotopic representations and microsystems, but also those that, as acupuncture points, sometimes additionally perform several functions or have several meanings (e.g. YinTang: pineal gland (Riddler, Mandel), third molars (Mandel), limbic system (Voll), RNA (Riddler)).

I shall explain in a moment why this is possible.

Zeitler described acupuncture points as special sensory organs of the skin, and Malinovski, on the basis of the neuronal corpuscles found there, regards them as a structural complex with “sensory nerve formations”. Particularly interesting is the accumulation of mitochondria in the dendritic zones of the nerve fibres, since they play an “important role in the transformation of excitation into impulse activity” (Malinovski, in Mastalier). According to Meyl, mitochondria are particularly neutrino collectors and thus suitable as longitudinal-wave receivers.

Fundamentally, therefore, acupuncture points must be regarded in communications-engineering terms as antennas, i.e. as both transmitters and receivers of energy and information, and are thus particularly suited, in the sense of vacuum physics, to entering into so-called “resonant interactions” (Meyl) through longitudinal waves. With the perfect resonance required for resonant interaction, longitudinal waves arise that distribute their energy and information instantaneously in space and time. Communication becomes possible only through this resonant interaction based on perfect resonance.

Even acupuncture vessels (e.g. Voll's degeneration vessels), viewed holographically, can have different associations (e.g. in Voll and Van Benschoten), depending on the system or test substance with which they were examined and, ultimately, on the system of meanings into which the practitioner's consciousness has engaged.

Before explaining this in more detail, I must draw more closely on the latest findings in physics from quantum philosophy (Warnke) and on the acupuncture-point biophoton research of Omura and Van Benschoten.

While the phenomenon of resonance testing is undisputed in experiential medicine and has its foundations in the matrix, i.e. in Pischinger's ground system or the mesenchyme according to Hauss and Junge-Hülsing—more precisely, in the hyperboloid structure (Heine) that develops there during information processing—attempts to validate subjectively perceived results through objective computer measurements have so far failed because such tests require the participation of the so-called human component (Lechner).

As early as the 1970s, Bergold attempted to perform medication testing solely with specially constructed machines (Bergold), but, as stated, without success. The study presented in 1999 by the EAV Society (Heyer) confirms this, although, as a commendable advance, it succeeded for the first time in having a computer subsequently reproduce improvements in measured values previously achieved by a physician through medication testing.

To this day, EAP commonly uses brass/silver hand electrodes and copper cable for medication testing, and Warnke was the first to try to find a plausible explanation through vacuum physics for the phenomena involved. Until then, it had been rather embarrassing to notice after a test that the cable had not been connected to the honeycomb at all, yet the resonance test had still worked.

More recent findings, however, provide an explanatory model for this.

Unbeknown to us, this occurrence was really the birth of non-contact medication testing, as practised for some time particularly in various medical kinesiological methods, such as autonomic regulation diagnosis after Klinghardt, physioenergetics after Van Assche and dental physioenergetics after Rossaint. It led to the development of the Rossaint Frequency Resonator (RFR, Rossaint honeycomb), which can, however, be used in all bioenergetic methods, including EAV.

Non-contact medication testing was systematically investigated particularly by Y. Omura and M. M. Van Benschoten in the USA.

Their investigations, particularly on the basis of acupuncture-point biophoton testing, showed that the information transfer known from EAP no longer occurred if aluminium foil (approximately 0.3 mm) was placed on the examiner's forehead. Furthermore, of all optical filters, only an indigo filter placed on the examiner's forehead could interrupt it.

This showed that information transfer was not primarily electromagnetic but predominantly photoelectronic in nature. At the same time, it documents that with this arrangement, as in EAV, information transmission is measured primarily through so-called transverse waves (Hertzian waves), which can be shielded, even though Warnke points out that the copper wires used “consist mainly of mass-free space” and are thus suitable for “longitudinal scalar-field oscillations”.

According to Van Benschoten's investigations, the signals required for medication testing lie in the near-IR range between 780 and 1,000 nanometres. The possibility is also discussed that transmission operates on the principle of UV modulation of an IR carrier wave (V. Benschoten / P. U. Eckhoff). This would explain why medication testing over acupuncture points in kinesiological methods can also be performed through clothing.

Investigations into shielding the forehead with the above-mentioned indigo filter (or aluminium foil) showed that the mechanism of information transmission is projected through the patient's brain waves into the examiner's frontal cortex, producing resonance there. Through the interaction between the two people and the medications, this is then expressed in a changed muscle tone or a different contact pressure in EAP (V. Benschoten).

Using his Bi-Digital O-Ring Test, Omura in particular demonstrated that the metal hand electrodes no longer needed to be held in the hand but could instead be placed in a Plexiglas tube and directed towards the patient from approximately 30–45 cm away to obtain the same results.

If information transfer in this arrangement was blocked by “closing” the tube opening with the indigo filter mentioned above, medication testing likewise ceased to work.

This, too, indicates that primarily Hertzian transverse waves are used as information carriers.

While Omura and V. Benschoten retained the “classical” EAP equipment apart from the Plexiglas tube, measurements with electrical devices soon revealed that only the external current from the devices at a voltage above 180 mV (direct current) made it possible to find Voll's degeneration vessels with their meanings. At values below this, the organ systems for the peritoneum (joint degeneration), sinuses (fatty degeneration), eyes (connective tissue/skin), ears (organ degeneration) and skin (nerve degeneration) suddenly appeared.

Later, Omura and V. Benschoten found that these displacements and distortions of the meridians (e.g. lung / lymph) were also caused by the hand electrodes themselves, whether made of brass or silver. To obtain identical results in the O-Ring Test and EAV, the potentised metals must therefore be used to neutralise the distortions.

Even acupuncture points (e.g. on the Triple Energiser meridian) had acquired different meanings: for example, V. Benschoten associates TE 1 with the pituitary (Voll: gonads, adrenal glands), TE 2 with the ovaries (Voll: thyroid/parathyroid, thymus) and TE 3 with the breast (Voll: pituitary, pineal gland).

On the basis of the above change in the meridian meanings of Voll's degeneration vessels, and the fact that individual acupuncture points have different meanings in different schools of medicine, acupuncture points must, also in the author's experience, be regarded as structural anatomical holograms (Rossaint). Here, the answer to the test questions depends primarily on the system of meanings into which the therapist's consciousness engages and/or on the test substance or apparatus used.

Without knowing of it beforehand, the author also found a similar definition of acupuncture points in Warnke.

According to Warnke, they are “local holograms”, specifically, as he writes, on account of a “superposition of electrical field strengths originating in blood vessels and neurons”. In other words, acupuncture points serve to receive “electromagnetic wavelengths coming from outside” (Warnke); furthermore, communication with the environment takes place through them. The energy used for this is modulated “by switching the course of functional processes with the aid of feelings, will ... and feedback” (Warnke), specifically through “conscious concentration through consciousness” (Warnke). The author (Rossaint) has advocated this requirement for concentration through consciousness in electroacupuncture measurement or kinesiological testing of somatotopic representations and medications in general, and acupuncture points in particular, for almost 30 years.

Medication testing at acupuncture points as a resonance phenomenon is thus primarily an act of mind and only secondarily a physical resonance phenomenon.

If measuring devices capable of measuring scalar waves (longitudinal waves) are developed one day, medication testing will also be possible using computers or similar instruments; whether this will also work for testing with symbols remains to be seen. Even then, however, information transfer will probably remain restricted to physical / physiological parameters, while for genuine healing, and thus the sanctification of the human patient, the human therapist remains indispensable, in order to incorporate the “experience of the real” (Döbereiner), and hence transcendence and metaphysics, and to achieve the linking of the individual, with his or her individual soul (Atma), to the world soul (universal soul (Supersoul) (Param-Atma)) and thus to God (Krishna, Vishnu, Brahman).

In quantum-physical terms, i.e. on the basis of the above-mentioned longitudinal waves, whose direction of propagation follows the field vector, a connection between transmitter and receiver, i.e. a “resonant interaction” (Meyl), arises only with so-called perfect individual resonance—and, remarkably, with feedback in each case from receiver to transmitter. In other words, the transmitter notices and knows whether the receiver has received its information, instantaneously, i.e. immediately without delay and as a whole, not serially as in television.

This also happens in medication testing, where both therapist and patient often notice and know that a medication is suitable even before it is placed in the honeycomb.

Among other things, this shows that nature, and the human being as part of it, primarily use longitudinal-wave technology to transmit information and energy, rather than primarily electromagnetic transverse-wave technology, which cannot provide the complexity of information familiar to us with the corresponding simultaneity.

In this sense, in the model the human being functions as both transmitter and receiver for scalar fields/waves. The same applies to a medication, so that perfect resonance permits feedback from the respective receiver to the respective transmitter. The tester/practitioner, acting as a measuring instrument, can read this resonant interaction as a measured value, muscle response, AR or RAC, because the practitioner possesses the same wave spectrum and is therefore able to enter into perfect resonance, and not least because he or she is a spiritual being.

Mutual feedback is possible, however, only if the waves required for information transfer are longitudinal waves and thus function as vortices of the electric field at the speed of light, faster than light, or at zero speed.

Vortex particles travelling at the speed of light are termed photons or biophotons (Popp), those travelling faster than light are termed neutrinos, and vortex particles at zero speed are termed noise; instantaneous information transfer takes place through each of these.

That in this model more energy can be drawn from the patient as receiver than the medication as transmitter gives off can be recognised by the fact that, when using the non-contact RFR, one feels an amplification effect—a boost—in that the muscle yields much more readily in the muscle reflex test, or the AR in physioenergetics occurs more readily or becomes more intense/larger.

In the EAV test, the value establishes itself faster, more precisely and more unambiguously because of instantaneous energy and information transfer, since 100% of the energy and information reaches the patient immediately.

Conversely, if the patient as transmitter can generate perfect resonance through his or her system with the medication as receiver, the therapist, who couples to this system, can likewise make use of this resonance because of his or her similarity and render it visible as +AR/MR, whereas an instrument lacking this ability to measure longitudinal waves cannot indicate it either. Such an instrument can measure only the so-called “externally manifesting energy” (Warnke) of matter-space, whereas the so-called “internally manifesting energy” (Warnke) of mind-space is linked to the human “assignment of sense and meaning” (Warnke). The ground system is the interface between matter-space and mind-space, and acupuncture points are the connecting points between them, with the meridians representing the “connecting cables”.

This explains why testing between patient, medication and tester is individual and subjective, and is not and cannot be registered by other therapists (examiners), even those possibly standing closer to the transmitter, if perfect resonance is absent in them.

Put plainly, this means that a second tester may obtain quite different results, and a test is intersubjectively identical only when both have the same prerequisites for resonance, e.g. no toxins, no scars, no emotional problems, etc. Since this is very rarely the case, the vast majority of test results obtained by different testers also differ; indeed, according to the findings of vacuum physics, they must do so.

Longitudinal waves may also offer a better explanatory model for measurement through clothing when suitable methods are chosen. These longitudinal waves have the property of passing through all matter and cannot be shielded.

As stated above, drifting of the meridians (e.g. lung / lymph) does not occur when measurements are below 180 mV or when working without electrodes. It therefore cannot be detected in kinesiological methods such as acupuncture-point biophoton testing (Acupoint Diagnostics).

Nevertheless, some authors working kinesiologically or without external current (e.g. Lechner and Schimmel), who are not familiar in their testing systems with the above findings of acupuncture-point biophoton testing, still use the meanings specified by Voll at the degeneration vessels and likewise achieve successes.

How, then, can this be explained?

Well: anyone who inaugurates a system thereby creates a morphic field, and whether it gains increasing strength and becomes generally effective depends on authenticity. The students of each system, at any rate, follow this field (morphic resonance after R. Sheldrake), whereas others do not. The students' inner acceptance of the corresponding morphic field, which they have internalised, has led them to generate only this resonance; since they do not know, or have not yet integrated, the other morphic field with its different resonance, they cannot generate its corresponding resonance or find the corresponding meaning either.

If, however, a practitioner knows and has accepted the various meanings, it is up to that practitioner which system to examine and which systems of meaning to engage with, whether through consciousness and/or in accordance with the medications used for the purpose.

If the practitioner knows only one meaning, however, only that meaning will be found. It is thus a question of resonance or affinity what an individual examiner perceives or does not perceive through his or her field of consciousness.

All this, alongside the physical statement concerning “field-strength transmission patterns” (Warnke), confirms my view of the holographic character of acupuncture points and meridians. In plain language: Voll's research and measurements, and those of his students, document the typical development of a morphic field that others have followed, as also occurs in other schools (morphic resonance).

The same applies to the so-called “functional holograms” of the mudras commonly used in kinesiology (Rossaint), i.e. to the different meanings of the same hand and finger positions, or conversely to the same meaning of different hand and finger positions. Here too, the therapist must consciously engage with the respective system of meanings and concentrate on what is being tested.

In quantum-physical terms, no examination is independent of the examiner (Warnke).

The examiner's field of consciousness, with its ability to establish various perfect resonances with the person examined (and that person's field of consciousness)—also through the corresponding test substances—is the decisive component in measurement and treatment in general and of acupuncture points in particular.

Some authors even assume that the entire universe consists of nothing other than structures of consciousness.

As a final example, I would like to mention so-called “projection-free acupuncture” (W. Weber).

For this, Weber arbitrarily drew two triangles on the body and, intending to find points with an optimal therapeutic effect for a “disorder that cannot be diagnosed” (W. Weber), moved along the lines of the triangles using the RAC and actually found corresponding resonance points.

For example, on the base of one triangle, he first found a point x from which he could arrange symmetrical points to the right and left. At the same time, he obtained positive tests at points where a perpendicular drawn through point x intersected one or both triangles, these points likewise being mirrored to the right and left. Finally, drawing horizontal lines through the points thus found, he could again test new intersections with the triangle lines as therapeutically effective.

And now comes the interesting part: if a second examiner, who questions the feasibility of these methods, tries to do the same, he obtains no result.

If both therapists—the one convinced by these methods and the sceptic—are placed beside the patient and the experiment is repeated with the sceptic conducting the examination, “as a rule, the pattern of the therapist with the greater ‘power of imagination’ will take effect” (Weber).

My own more recent investigations of acupuncture points with the RFR mini-tube also show that they are connecting sites between microcosm and macrocosm, or between matter-space and mind-space, i.e. that measurements at them can reach, on the one hand, into the cell nucleus and, on the other, into the causal body. Both occur through “filtering”, as known in bioenergetic methods: here, for example, through audio files or images of corresponding cellular structures for the microcosm or matter-space (cell nucleus), and, on the other hand, through, for example, the mudras of the various energy bodies (after Beardall) for the macrocosm or mind-space (aura, various energy bodies).

I hope that this article has shown you not only that subjective measurement of acupuncture points as local structural holograms is in complete agreement with the latest findings in physics, but also that these subjective measurements—in contrast to the findings of natural science—are a compelling necessity of intersubjective bioenergetic tests.

I would like to conclude with a statement by the Viennese atomic physicist Professor Pietschmann:

“Whatever is predicted theoretically will also be found experimentally, regardless of whether it exists or not.”
