Energy of Consciousness Healing on Growth and Yield of the Plant Stem Cells Culture

What is it about?

The objective of the present study was to evaluate the effect of Biofield Energy Healing Treatment on the plant callus of Mandukparni (Centella asiatica), Katsarika (Barleria cristata), and Amla (Phyllanthus emblica) in Murashige & Skoog liquid medium (MS) for their yield on day 7. All the three plant callus and MS liquid media were divided into two parts, one part was received Biofield Energy Treatment (known as The Trivedi Effect®-Energy Of Consciousness Healing Treatment) by a renowned Biofield Energy Healer, Alice Branton through the Healer’s unique Energy Transmission process remotely and defined as Biofield Energy Treated group. Another part did not receive any treatment and defined as the control group. On day 7 after the treatment, the flasks were observed and visualized under the phase contrast microscope for monitoring the cell growth and photomicrographs were captured at 200X magnification along with the wet weight of the callus cultures. Experimental data suggested that all the three plants viz. Mandukparni, Katsarika, and Amla callus showed significantly improved growth rate after seven days as compared with the respective untreated groups. The growth of the callus (weight in mg) of Mandukparni, Katsarika and Amla callus after 7 days of the Biofield Energy Treatment was 289.7, 348.5, and 512 mg respectively. However, the percentage increase in weight of the callus in Mandukparni, Katsarika, and Amla was 3.3%, 7.7%, and 79.6%, respectively as compared with the untreated group. Hence, the results indicated that there was a significant growth observed after The Trivedi Effect®-Energy of Consciousness Treatment in the tested plant stem cells. It can be concluded that The Trivedi Effect® would be used as a complementary and alternative treatment to maximize most valuable natural products yield and quality best quality such as herbal medicinal plants, food and dietary supplements, flavoring and coloring agents, cosmetics and fragrance products, and many more.

Why is it important?

Plants are the best source of a wide variety of chemical molecules with many biological activities. Data suggested that more than 200,000 high-value natural products (NPs) have been recognized, which have been utilized as drugs such as codeine, morphine, and paclitaxel [1]. Other NPs are used as food flavouring and colouring agents such as anthocyanins, saffron, and spearmint. For the management of pest and disease management, some NPs are commonly used such as nicotine, strychnine, and azadirachtin, while lavender, rosemary, and aloe vera are used for the cosmetics and fragrance products [2]. Most commonly, these NPs are produced commercially by extracting various plant sources along with other approved methods. However, important medicinal plants have not been domesticated in large scale, which leads to limiting the wild-populations and potential of producing active molecules. Synthesis of NPs using chemical process is another alternative strategy, which can circumvent some aspects of semi-synthetic issues, however, it remains the costly approach that can produce toxic by-products in NPs [3]. In addition, another well-established technology platform for NPs synthesis is the plant cell culture with several advantages. Plant callus culture is the successful method from experimental to the commercial platform for the synthesis of high-value phytoconstituents [4]. Although callus culture and regeneration of various plants have already been recognized using different methods [5], the present study assessed the growth and yield of selected plant callus of Mandukparni (Centella asiatica), Katsarika (Barleria cristata) and Amla (Phyllanthus emblica) after treatment with The Trivedi Effect®-Energy of Consciousness Healing Treatment by a renowned Biofield Energy Healer, Alice Branton. Centella asiatica L. generally defined as Indian pennywort from family Apiaceae. Multiplication of its callus has been studied through shoot tip culture and meristem tip culture [6,7]. As a complementary medicine, it is used clinically for asthma, nervine tonic, skin diseases, dropsy, hypertension, bronchitis, and urethritis [8]. Phyllanthus emblica Linn. known as Indian gooseberry or amla of family Euphorbiaceae, commonly used as medicine and as a tonic to boost the vitality and vigor. It has been traditionally used as anti-inflammatory, antianemia, cardioprotective, antipyretic, antidiarrheal, analgesic, wound healing, and many more [9]. Similarly, Barleria cristata, a perennial shrub from family Acanthaceae has been reported to have many biologically active compounds such as iridoids, flavonoids, and phenylethanoid derivatives [10]. Over the past few decades, many researchers have been interested in the potential mechanisms of certain energy-healing practices in different biological fields. As a result, healing practitioners (The Trivedi Effect®) have been involved in a wide number of preclinical, In vitro cell lines, analytical, pharmaceutical, agricultural studies. Biofield Energy Healing as a Complementary and Alternative Medicine (CAM) that proofed significant results in biological studies [11]. However, the National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine (NCCAM), well-defined Biofield therapies in the subcategory of Energy Therapies. Hence, Biofield Energy Healing is increasingly accepted to promote human wellness as an alternative approach [12,13]. The Trivedi Effect®-Consciousness Energy Healing Treatment has been reported with significant revolution in the physicochemical properties of metals, chemicals, ceramics and polymers [14-17], improved agricultural crop yield, productivity, and quality [18-20], transformed antimicrobial characteristics of pathogenic microbes at genetic level [21-23], improved biological activity of nutraceutical compounds for skin health [24,25], livestock [26], and many more.
