Information Medicine: A New Medical Paradigm

Nisha J. Manek, MD, FACP, FRCP (UK)Tiller Institute, Payson, AZ

The following short talk was given at the Science & Non Duality Conference (SAND) in San Jose, CA. SAND is dedicated to bringing together the complementary pathways of human inquiry: the scientific method and spiritual practices. In this sense, the mission of SAND is to bring a consciousness inclusive science.

Qi and subtle energies*• Different from 4 accepted

fundamental forces (electro-magnetism, gravity, strong and weak nuclear forces)

• Subtle does not mean weak! • Difficult to detect • Meditation, intention, Qi,

prana, Ki, etc.• Faster than speed of light• Beyond space-time (& needs

higher order physics)* WA Tiller, 1975

Qi and subtle energies*

Humans are a MIX!Atom-molecule ‘stuff’ of the

physical body is subluminal (<<c) and supra-luminal subtle energies (>c)

Expanding the Medical Paradigm: We must account for information in the whole scheme

To account for informationa short primer of well-known physics follows…

IT’S NOT A THEORY

IT’S THE LAW

SCIENTISTS TRUST THIS LAW MORE THAN ANY OTHER…

IT’S EVEN BEEN CALLED THE SCIENTIFIC EQUIVALENT OF SHAKESPEARE….

THE GOOD NEWS…IT DOES NOT REQUIRE MATHEMATICS TO UNDERSTAND THE CONCEPTS!

The 2nd Law at work in medicine – Chemical potentials are source of ΔG

Let’s look at Entropy (S)…It holds the key to Intention and

Information as key variables to do work (ΔG >0)

G = PV + E - TS

“I knew this Would happen to me!”

George Bernard Shaw

Erwin Schrödinger

“Life maintains itself on Low Entropy”

“In addition to the Energy content of food its entropy contentshould also be displayed.” -In, What is Life?

As far as energy is concerned you can survive on French fries for a long time. But practically you are missing crucial information required to keep your body in a highly ordered state (low entropy)

V. Vedral, 2012

By eating the same energy equivalent of cauliflower, he would still have a similarly unbalanced nutritional profile, with an increase in entropy.

It’s gets even more interesting…

G = PV + E - TS

Entropy is intimately connected to Information

G = PV + E - TS

Brillouin, Léon (1889-1969)

In his 1956 book Science and Information theory, Leon Brillouin coined the term "negentropy" for the negative entropy (a characteristic of free or available energy). He then connected it to information in what he called the "negentropy principle of information."

Information is intimately related to entropy of the TS term in the 2nd Law

S I G TS TI

It takes work (energy) and also INFORMATION to maintain order

Information is physical!

Jeremy England

A New Physics Theory of Life

One essential difference between living things and inanimate clumps of carbon atoms: Living things tend to be much better at capturing energy from their environment and dissipating that energy as heat.

At the heart of England’s idea is the second law of thermodynamics.

SAND The Nature of Consciousness

Q: What is Consciousness?or we can ask…

Q: What does Consciousness do?

“Consciousness itself is the greatest painter.

The entire world is a picture.”

- Nisargadatta Maharaj author, I AM THAT

Human consciousness is a source of information!

intention   

intention

noun in·ten·tion \in-ˈten(t)-shen\the thing that you plan to do or

achieve : an aim or purpose

Merriam-Webster dictionary

“Intention is a process of creation.” Prof. Bill Tiller, PhD.

Human Intention is a source of free energy and can do work; it also reduces entropy (disorder) in a living system promoting homeostasis

Rigorously tested the scientific assumption that human qualities like intention & emotion cannot impact / change a well-designed experiment

The Four Target Experiments

1. Increase the pH of water by 1 full unit

2. Decrease the pH of water by 1 full unit

- No chemical components added

- Measurement accuracy: ±0.01pH units

4 Target Experiments

The Tiller target experiments showunder certain conditions,intention can be a source of excess Thermodynamic free energy and work.

WA Tiller, 2007

Entropy (S) holds the key to Intention and Information as key variables to do work (ΔG >0)

G = PV + E - TS

Information is intimately related to entropy of the TS term in the 2nd Law

Key Point: Subtle energy sources such as intention contribute to the

total thermodynamic free energy of the master equation as ΔGexcess

S I G TS TI

Information and Relationship to Entropy: The 2nd Law of Thermodynamics

Here, in the master equation that drives all natural processes, development of information in various layers of human infrastructure can be a positive thermodynamic driving force (ΔG>0)

Intention broadcast from the IHD will significantly increase Autism Treatment Evaluation Checklist (ATEC) score of the children

IHD “broadcasts” to a computer

Statement designed to support integrationof autistic children to function more readily in the distance-time domain. This step isinformation creation!By Prof. Bill Tiller.

IHD is housed at the Tiller Labs in Payson, AZ

IHD “broadcasts” to a computer continually scrolling names +addresses of participating children

Autism Intention Broadcast ProjectThe participating children are physically located world-wide as far as Australia and New Zealand

Hypothesis correct! Intention broadcast improves ATEC scores
