       The Magnetic Ocean Quavering in the Human Body 

=Pt.ShriRam Sharma Acharya

Noted psychologist Prof. Victor E. Kromar has investigated the role of mental power (will power) in controlling and utilizing the biomagnetic power of the human body.  The experiences and experiments of   Dr. Franz Anton Mesmer of Germany are well known in this regard.  

Due to the non-availability of proper medicines, Dr. Mesmer once found himself helpless in controlling the excessive bleeding through a patient’s body.  In this desperate situation, Dr. Mesmer began to move his hand on the wounded spot; he observed that the bleeding miraculously stopped after a while.  Inspired by this incident, Dr. Mesmer conducted many experiments to study the associated effects.  He concluded that it is some kind of electromagnetic field existing in the tips of his finger that affects his patients’ bodies.  This power was given a name biomagnetism by him.  Dr. Mesmer’s research led to the foundation of   Mesmerism.  Later, Dr. Van Helmond also gained popularity because of his successful experiments on curing various mental and physical diseases by Mesmerism. 

The pain-killing treatments given to the German dictator Adolf Hitler and his friend Heinrich Himmler by an Estonian named Kristan are historical examples of the applications of Mesmerism.  Kristan is also said to have used his hypnotizing power on Himmler to liberate over a hundred thousands innocent people who were captured by Hitler.  

An expert user of Mesmerism actually influences the will-power and the nervous system of others by his/her own (bio)electromagnetic power. Subtle effects of such experiments lead to the transfusion of the prana (vital energy) of the performer into the body of the patient.  

The Greek saint and doctor, Hippocrates had great faith in the power of vital energy.  His philosophy states that — as the body survives because of the power of the soul, it should not be difficult to cure and regulate its healthy state by using the vital energy supplied by the consciousness. A Scottish philosopher, Mr. Maxwell had a similar belief.  He had opened a training centre for spiritual healing.  Another European named Eschulepious was famous for his treatment that included a few sessions of touching a patient and exhaling on the latter’s mouth.  An English priest named Father Dueda was also known for similar expertise.  A London based gardener named Lenhart gained popularity due to the healing-effects of his finger-tips.
