Kirlian (high-voltage) photograph of test objects' energy levels
These Kirlian Photographs were taken at the Neuropsychiatric Institute at U.C.L.A. in conjunction with experiments being conducted by the Institute Director, Dr. Thelma Moss, on Charles Collins' ability to affect the energy field of a leaf. The pictures show the affects of electro-static energy transmitted from a human body, and how that energy influences the energy field generated by a leaf.
This experiment is unique in that the man who was tested according to Dr. Moss' he is the only person who has been tested with the ability to increase or decrease the energy flow from his body.
Early in 1976, Charles Collins was tested in experiments with leaf shown above being in Los Angeles and Charles Collins, being in Miami. He was able to repeatedly affect changes in the energy fields of the leaf shown above. He found he could teach himself to control his energy which has led him to his present phenomenal abilities.
These experiments were carried out during Spring, 1976, and compliment the results of similar experiments carried out and reported by Stanley Krippner, reprinted in the proceedings of the Psychotronics Conference, 2nd International, 1975, Monaco.
I. Changes in the intensity of exposure in photographs using Kirlian photography coincided with attempts by a subject to visualize "changes" in leaves being photographed. The subject was in Miami, Florida, and the experimental laboratory was in Los Angeles California. Control leaves that were photographed using the same technical methods, but at different times and uninfluenced by the subject, did not demonstrate changes. This supports the hypothesis that there is a relationship between Mr. Collins' efforts to cause "change" in the leaves' corona patterns and the observed changes produced during the experiment.
II. Equipment: A high voltage apparatus generated an alternating, bipolar current of eight thousand volts, with a frequency of twenty-eight hundred cycles per second, sine wave. The electrode-film-object configuration is pictured in Figure I. Film type was Tri-X Orthochromatic Kodak. Development procedure was identical for all films. Exposure times were 10 seconds.
III. Procedure: The subject was in Miami, the laboratory in the Neuropsychiatric Institute, UCLA. This is the laboratory of Dr. Thelma Moss.
One half hour prior to the experiment, watches were synchronized by a phone call. Photo graphs were taken of ten leaves picked from a Creeping Charlie plant. A hole 1/4" in diameter was made in each leaf. Such injuring causes greater dimming over time. Each picture was taken on separate sheets. This required ten minutes. Fifteen minutes after the first leaf was photographed, and all the leaves place one on top of each other within a plastic cup, the subject concentrated on the leaves . This involved visualizing that the leaves were accepting "energy" that was provided by Mr. Colllns' hands. However, It was visualized as occurring in the laboratory in L.A., not in Miami. This concentration lasted for five minutes. This was the "ADD" energy sequence.
The leaves were then photographed for a second time. This required ten minutes.
Fifteen minutes after the first leaf was photographed for a second time, and all the leaves were replaced in order In the plastic cup, Mr. Collins' again concentrated on the leaves, with the intent of "removing energy" from them. This was the "TAKE" energy sequence. He concentrated on this for five minutes, The leaves were then re photographed for a third and final time. This took ten minutes.
Control leaves from the same plant were subjected to the same procedure of three photographs, with the identical time sequence between photographs. The subject refrained from influencing them.
This procedure with ten experimental leaves and ten control leaves was carried out six times. Thus, sixty leaves, experimental' and sixty control leaves were photographed.
IV. Results: By my personal subjective analysis, and one other person, a significant portion of the experimental leaves alternating became bright and dimmer during the second and third pictures respectively. By contrast, control leaves only dimmed slightly during each set of three sequential photographs . This dimming is typical, as the leaf was injured in the picking process, and was in stages of death. The experimental dimming exceeded the natural dimming. Approximately eighty-percent of the experimental leaves appeared to show this correlative effect, which should be statistically significant.
A final and rigorous analysis of the "exposure factors" or levels of the film must be carried out to make this observation conclusive and definite. This may be carried out by Judges or electronic apparatus that quantifies exposure levels of films.
A comment from Charlie
I will be happy to repeat the above experiment any time under controlled laboratory conditions as we did some 30 years ago - if you are interested please contact me. . . . . . charliecollins@thoughtscreate.com
