Yet, while we know retrocausation exists, no one really knows the mechanics behind it. Some suggest that quantum mechanics might best explain the phenomenon. The laws of quantum mechanics suggest that there need not be a prior rationale for any event—rather, events can, and do, often exhibit a random nature. In this sense, retrocausation may be thought of as a sort of Lorentz transformation variant—that is, a special relativity whereby events of space and time are measured and based not on absolutes, but rather, on the relative perceptions of observers. The quantum perspective on retrocausation may reveal reflections of what Einstein called “spooky action at a distance” (where there is nonlocal interaction between objects beyond the limitations of time and space) or “superposition” (objects are in all states simultaneously, as long as they're not limited by observation) or “quantum entanglement” (where the states of two or more objects, while individual and spatially separated, remain interactive).

As it is perceived in our world, time only seems to move forward. But the truth of the matter is that time isn't governed by laws that restrict it from moving backward. Researcher Ferenc Krausz of the Max Planck Institute for Quantum Optics in Germany has clocked the shortest time intervals ever recorded. The events he
observes are a reflection of the temporal-time world known as the Planck scale, which deals in the smallest units of time. The fastest motions in the microscopic world produce near-infinitesimal times. Krausz has recorded times in the “attoseconds.” A nanosecond is a billion times faster than a second, and an attosecond is another billion faster than a nanosecond. Krausz's work is on the brink of breaking the barrier of time as we know it. The barrier of space is about to be breached as well.

John Cramer, a well-known and respected physicist at the University of Washington, believes that light particles can work in reverse. He refers to his theory as the “transactional interpretation of quantum mechanics.” Cramer emphasizes that there is no proof that time can move only one way, and no logical explanation why it can't work backward. He is in the process of proving his theory with the aid of lasers, prisms, splitters, and fiber optics. His experiment intends to demonstrate signaling between entangled light particles in reverse time.

TRANSMITTING THOUGHT CH'I

The quantum physics of the modern West and the alchemy of the ancient East share one very important commonality—an understanding of energy. While quantum physics has come to better understand energy through analytical and theoretical analysis, ancient Eastern alchemy demands a purely innate understanding of energy. Nonetheless, each of these divergent perspectives opens us up to the limitless potentials of energy.

Like atoms, there will never be a shortage of ch'i. Remember that ch'i manifests in an endless myriad of forms, including thought. Therefore, energy healing is a matter of effectively directing thought ch'i to wherever there is a perceived deficiency. This is called
Qigong,
or “energy mastery.” With Qigong, the life force energy of ch'i can be transmitted from one mind to another
regardless of apparent time and space limitations. That is where the practitioner and their intent comes into play. A capable practitioner can artfully channel ch'i from one place to another. They might direct their own ch'i to a patient in need, or they might direct ch'i from out of the air, sun, stars, skies, or rain. A good practitioner might visualize a waterfall or a rainbow in their mind as a source of ch'i to be directed to a subject. They might also recall a wonderful energizing event from their past from which to draw energy for channeling.

I often remind my patients that ch'i is the energetic currency of change. Everything is ch'i, and everything can therefore be altered through the intentional rearrangement of its ch'i. A powerful intention can weaken a virus or strengthen a kidney. Foods and medicines can be energetically altered as well. If a patient has a sinus problem and happens to have a homeopathic for stomachache, I will intentionally alter the energetic properties of their homeopathic medicine to be able to assist with their sinus problem. Homeopathy has very active ch'i, powerful receptor energy, and memory that can be intentionally reprogrammed with the power of positive-thought ch'i.

Body balancing between a practitioner and subject begins with two very important prerequisites: 1) the practitioner must have powerful intention to heal the subject, and 2) the subject must be open to receiving the healing ch'i. If either of these elements is absent, the healing will likely not be successful. Energy healing with ch'i is a form of thought communication. There must be a transmitter and a receiver, or there can be no effective two-way connection. When it comes to transmitting healing-thought ch'i, there are two prerequisite healing-thought intentions.

The Two Prerequisites for Transmitting Thought Ch'i

1. Loving Compassion (yin)
   
2. Healing Determination (yang)
   

While either one alone will be sufficient, the ideal situation is for the practitioner to have both intentions within command. Healing compassion is not an easy thing for most people to cultivate in today's competitive world. I always believed that it was a good exercise for any healing practitioner to connect with the face of innocence and deservedness. By observing children at play, or the elderly with their limitations, or the handicapped with their challenges, it becomes easier to connect with innocence and deservedness. The next step of course is to transmit the ch'i generated by these visions to the subject you wish to heal. Regardless of what we appear to be, our core forever remains the same. Life is hard. Pain and suffering are strangers to no one. It's important for all practitioners to tap into their wellspring of compassion and learn to transmit the ch'i it generates.

The power of our compassion may be best exemplified by the Buddhist practice of compassion meditation. University of Wisconsin neuroplasticity researchers recently studied the brain waves of the Dalai Lama's monks after one of their compassion meditations. Each of the monks was hooked up to 256 electrodes for brain scanning. The researchers were stunned to record gamma brain wave bursts never before recorded by science and not believed capable of being captured. The researchers had expected relaxation, in the form of alpha brain waves. The key thing to take away from this is that their compassion meditation was anything but passive. The power of their intention was more like a World Series pitcher on the mound, focusing only on the catcher's mitt. In a zone so intense, they don't even hear the roar of the 50,000 spectators cheering them on. The monks were in a zone of their own, and just as soon as their eyes closed, they were determined to have a very real, tangible healing effect somewhere in this world. Imagine closing your eyes and having the world in your arms as if it were a wounded child. Think of yourself as creating an intentional and powerful healing energy that was absolutely going to have an effect. Like a
practitioner with powerful healing determination, these monks simply won't take no for an answer. There is great healing power in our most compassionate thoughts and intentions.

THE HEART'S HAND

The Heart's Hand is a distance energy healing technique that I discovered while in stream of consciousness during a seminar many years ago. It is the simplest of all body balancing techniques. In the middle of this particular seminar, I requested a volunteer. A gentleman raised his hand and came up to the front of the group. I was demonstrating the pass/fail organ test and found that he had a deficient gallbladder that pulse tested at –6. Prior to the class, I'd spoken with him for a while and our conversation had revealed that he was taking the course to learn to better care for his grandsons, who'd lost their parents. He was the designated caregiver and wanted to learn all he could to better serve the well-being of his grandsons. It was plain to see that he loved those little boys more than life itself. The mere mention of their names evoked great emotion in him. So when it came time to balance his deficient gallbladder, an instinct came over me to ask him to close his eyes, place his hands over his gallbladder, and instead of spiraling, or weaving ch'i, I simply asked the man to envision his grandsons. I asked him to collect the energy of that image and then to direct the love it generated directly to his gallbladder. I asked him to remain concentrated on that vision for a full minute or so. I then retested his gallbladder energy, and of course it was extremely strong. I then tested it again with the pulse test technique to see just how strong it was. After a mere moment or two of ch'i collecting, his gallbladder pulse tested to +10. It was truly remarkable!

This technique greatly inspired everyone in the class. We then attempted a variation on the theme. I asked another volunteer to come forth. Performing the same technique, I discovered that the
woman had deficient kidneys that pulsed to –8. This time I asked the class to help out. I instructed the volunteer to place both hands over her primary kidney points, one inch to the right and left of her navel. I then asked each member of the class to think of something or someone they loved very much. I gave them a few moments to collect the ch'i from their visualization. I then asked the woman to close her eyes as the class sent nonlocal, distance love-energy to her kidney area. After a moment or two I retested the volunteer's kidneys and discovered a very strong muscle response. Next, I pulse tested and found that her kidneys had strengthened from –8 to +10. I reminded the class that they had just transmitted collected energy nonlocally, at a distance of some twenty to thirty feet. I asked the class if they believed it was possible for them to produce similar results for subjects at a far greater distance. They all said yes, and their instincts were exactly correct. Such transmission of energy is not restricted by the limitations of time and space. The Heart's Hand exercise is one of the most powerful techniques I have ever worked with. The heart's field of consciousness focuses its attention on a powerful image of love, collects it, and then transmits its great force through the hand of a subject and on to wherever the healing is directed.

WEAVING THE CH'I

The first Whole Health body balancing technique is actually one that has been commonly practiced in China for centuries. It is a Qigong protocol that weaves ch'i into the energy-deficient subject or out of the subject with excess energy. The practitioner will mentally focus on weaving balanced ch'i into any corresponding excess or deficient organs of their subjects with their mind's intention and the movement of their dominant hand. When we speak of the power of the mind's intention, we are really talking about compassion. The practitioner's compassion must be understood as the most
important aspect of all Qigong healing. It is compassion that engages the “heart-mind.” The heart-mind is the ruler of all human life energy.

FIGURE 5.2
Weaving the Ch'i

The technique is quite easy to understand and perform, but it is very powerful. Any subject's organ areas that are deficient will need to have ch'i added, or “weaved in.” The practitioner will use their dominant hand to throw ch'i into that weak organ area. This motion is, again, a bit like throwing spice into a cooking pot, but it must be a repeated motion (see Figure 5.2). As with all Qigong healing, the practitioner must focus their mind and envision that they are actually throwing energy into their subject, with the express intention of giving them an energy boost. The practitioner's mental intention means everything. With Qigong, mental intention is what moves the energy. Regardless of the fact that they are intensifying their intention, the practitioner isn't giving up their own ch'i, but rather, acting as a medium who is directing the abundant
universal ch'i into the subject. This Weaving the Ch'i exercise should take only one to three minutes per organ. Continue to diagnostically pulse test the organ you are working on to see if the organ is balancing. Don't stop treatment until it's balanced.

If your subject has an excess of ch'i, the practitioner must weave the excess energy out of them. When weaving excess ch'i out of a subject, remember to throw it back out into the universe, where it can be cleansed and recycled. Excess ch'i can be energetically toxic. It may represent an accumulated buildup of stress, negative thought emotions, foods, and/or drugs. It may also be the result of bacterial, viral, or fungal infections, electromagnetic pollution, or a number of other causes. Therefore, when performing the Weaving the Ch'i protocol in order to remove excess ch'i, practitioners must occasionally take a moment to shake out any toxic ch'i they might have absorbed.

Practitioners should focus their attention on the subject's area of excess and use their action hand to weave it out and throw it away. Recheck the subject with pulse test diagnostics to see if the organ energy is balancing and, as always, don't stop treatment until you help them to attain balance. As with weaving in, this exercise should take only one to three minutes per organ.
