Leland Kaiser interview
LETTERS
LELAND KAISER INTERVIEW Dear Editor It was with great interest that I read Bonnie Horrigan’s interview with Leland R. Kaiser in the January issue of EXPLORE. The boundaries of my belief system and consciousness got pushed out another six feet! Thank you so much for a splendid job. Kaiser brings so many esoteric disciplines together with contemporary systems theory. It boggles my 20th century mind and shakes it up so that I can participate in the 21st century mind-bending developments! On page 55 Horrigan said to Leland Kaiser, “I was fascinated in one of your articles where you said that prayer can accomplish more than all the work in the world.” Can you give me the reference for that article?
Erratum Several corrections were inadvertently left out of the paper, “Color Filters and Human Photon Emission: Implications for Auriculomedicine” by Roeland Van Wijk, PhD; John M. Ackerman, MD; and Eduard P. A. Van Wijk, PhD, published in the March 2005 issue of EXPLORE: The Journal of Science and Healing (pages 102-108). The first two paragraphs should have read as below: Introduction Auriculotherapy (the French version of ear acupuncture) was investigated in Europe by Nogier in Lyon, France during the 1950s. Ear acupuncture or acupressure, mentioned in The Yellow Emperor’s Classic of Internal Medicine that dates back to approximately 500 B.C., was also mentioned by Hippocreates in ancient Greece. Some of Dr. Nogier’s hypotheses on ear acupuncture were tested

Dear Editor:
Dear Francis:
I want to congratulate you on your inaugural issue of EXPLORE. There were many items of interest, but I will single out the moving editorial by the executive editor. I have subscribed, and I have also recommended the publication to my professional colleagues.
I came across that particular paper while I was on Leland’s Web site and reading up in preparation for the interview. Leland has an extensive library of articles on his Web site.

in Nanking, China by the Army Ear Acupuncture Research. Nogier discovered that the radial arterial wall instantly changes its tone, not only if an object such as a transparent color filter touches a patient’s skin but also if held close to a person in the electromagnetic field surrounding him or her but not touching his or her body. He called this reflex the vascular autonomic signal (VAS). This implied that a color filter held close to but not touching the body has an influence on the body. Over many years he discovered a diagnostic method (aurioculomedicine) sometimes using color filters such that the area close to the outside of the body provides information to the examiner in two ways: It supplies information about (1) chemical and physiological functioning of the body and (2) the therapeutic needs of those biological systems.

this information, he taught a supplementary, clinical, internal medicine system (auriculotherapy plus aurioculomedicine) to many physicians. They came to study with him not only from France but also from Belgium, The Netherlands, Great Britain, and South America. A very few came from the United States. If a clinician knows how to utilize the VAS, he/she can pinpoint the exact location of acupuncture points without anatomy as an exact point locator. The unproven assumption over the years has been that the body contains subtle, supplementary sensory systems in addition to hearing, taste, smell, touch, and vision that gather information regarding the environment and interpret in a discriminating manner. The VAS as a physiologic marker reflects this information both qualitatively and quantitatively.
