What is it about?

Measurement of soil components such as microbial population, minerals and obviously the content of organic carbon play the important roles for the productivity of crops and plants. The present study was attempted to evaluate the impact of Mr. Trivedi’s biofield energy treatment on soil for its physical (electrical conductivity), chemical (minerals) and microbial flora (bacteria and fungi). A plot of lands was assigned for this study with some already grown plants. This plot was divided into two parts. One part was considered as control, while another part was subjected to Mr. Trivedi’s biofield energy treatment without physically touching and referred as treated. In the treated soil the total bacterial and fungal counts were increased by 546 and 617%, respectively as compared to the untreated soil. Additionally, the conductivity of soil of the treated plot was increased by 79% as compared to the soil of control plot. Apart from microbes, the content of various minerals were also changed in the biofield energy treated soil. The calcium carbonate content showed 2909 ppm in the control, while in the treated soil it was increased to 3943 ppm i.e. 36% increased. Various other minerals such as nitrogen and potassium were increased by 12% and 7%, respectively as compared to the control. Besides, the level of some minerals such as potassium, iron, and chloride were decreased by 9%, 23%, and 41%, respectively as compared to the control. Apart from chemical constituents of soil, the content of organic carbon was also reduced by 8% in the treated soil as compared to the control soil. The overall results envisaged that the biofield energy treatment on the soil showed a significant improvement in the physical, chemical, and microbial functions of soil component. Thus, improved the conductance, supportive microbes, minerals and overall productivity of crops. In conclusion, the biofield energy treatment could be used as an alternative way to increase the yield of quality crops by increasing soil fertility.

Why is it important?

Soil is a vital natural resource. Our food system depends on a healthy terrestrial ecosystem, of which soil forms a vital component. Soil is not only a support for vegetation, but also provides a platform for numerous interactions between climate (water, air, temperature) and soil life (micro-organisms, plants, animals) [1]. Soil bacteria and fungi play a vital role in various biogeochemical cycles (BGC) and are responsible for the transformation of organic compounds [2, 3]. Soil microorganisms also impart ecosystem by contributing nutrition and health of plants and exerted the soil structure and fertile ability [4]. However, many environmental activities; such as city development, agriculture, use of pesticides, and pollution can potentially affect soil microbial diversity that create an imbalance in the ecosystems. Soil nitrogen supply (SNS) is a key requirement for cereals and many other crops. It is important for both growers and agronomists, as it plays a key role of the decision-making process for optimizing nitrogen fertilizer doses [5]. Soil fertility depends on the availability of soil nutrient that can be assessed through chemical analysis. Apart from these, the physical and biological parameters are also crucial for soil fertility [6]. The nutrient and organic matter measurement in soil are too important than snapshot analysis and many agricultural researchers recommended the use of soil analysis with nutrient budgets for the assessment of fertility changes over time in organic systems [7, 8]. There are many problems to find out microbial population in soil. One is the innate heterogeneity of soil containing many microhabitats that are suitable for microbial growth and thus of spatial distribution of the microorganisms [9, 10]. A well-known physiologist, Willem Einthoven, in 1903 had developed electrocardiography (ECG) to measure the biofield of human body. Thus, human has the ability to harness the energy from environment or universe and can transmit into any living or nonliving object(s) around the Globe. The objects always receive the energy and responding into useful way that is called biofield energy and the process is known as biofield treatment. Harold Saxton Burr, had performed the detailed studies on the correlation of electric current with physiological process and concluded that every single process in the human body had an electrical significance. Recently, it was discovered that all the electrical process happening in body have strong relationship with magnetic field as required by Ampere’s law, which states that the moving charge produces magnetic fields in surrounding space [11]. Thus, the human body emits the electromagnetic waves in form of bio-photons, which surrounds the body and it is commonly known as biofield. Therefore, the biofield consists of electromagnetic field, being generated by moving electrically charged particles (ions, cell, molecule etc.) inside the human body. Any living body possesses some energy, and this energy can transformed from one form to another. Human body has a tremendous resource of certain kind of energy, responsible for physical, emotional or mental activities. Human can achieve this kind of energy from food, water and light. These are the main resources of life [12]. The National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health (NCCIH), recommended the use of CAM therapies like biofield energy as an alternative in the healthcare field. About 36% of US citizens regularly use some form of CAM [13], in their daily activities. In the year 2002, Korotkov K measured the human energy field level during CAM therapy with the help of computerized gas discharge visualization (GDV) technique based on Kirlian effect. They claimed it as a first tool to visualize the distribution of human’s fields, more easily, reproducibly, graphically and, very inexpensive [14, 15]. A unique biofield treatment (The Trivedi effect®) has known to alter growth and immunity in the field of agricultural science [16-19], chemical science [20], etc. To reduce the chances of nutrient deficiency disorders and increase the yield of crops. Moreover, to study the impacts of various factors such as microbial bioburden, mineral content and organic carbon on soil fertility the present work was undertaken to evaluate the effect of biofield energy treatment on soil.

Perspectives

Based on the study outcome, the biofield energy treated soil showed better characteristics with respect to conductivity, microbial bioburden, and minerals as compared to the control. Moreover, the quality and fertility parameters were also improved in the treated sample. The fungal and bacterial content were increased by 617 and 546% in the treated sample as compared to the control. Besides, the conductivity of soil was increased by 79% in the treated soil with respect to control. The various essential minerals viz. calcium carbonate, nitrogen, and potassium were increased by 36, 12, and 7%, respectively as compared to the control. Additionally, other minerals such as phosphorus, iron, and chloride level were also decreased by 9, 23, and 41%, in the treated soil as compared to the control. Moreover, the content of organic carbon was also changed in the treated soil by 8% as compared to the control. In conclusion, the present investigation demonstrated that Mr. Trivedi’s unique biofield energy treatment could be utilized as an alternate approach along with other existing approach to improve the productivity of crops by increasing the component of soil fertility in the field of agriculture.
