William A. Tiller, Ph.D. is professor emeritus of Materials Science and Engineering at Stanford University. Tiller appears in the film What the Bleep Do We Know!?. His seminal book is the 1997 Science and Human Transformation, which postulates the existence of subtle energies, beyond the four fundamental forces, which act on the human consciousness.
According to the byline of one of Tiller's articles, published in the May/June 1999 issue of Science & Medicine: "Dr. William A. Tiller joined the Stanford University faculty as Professor of Physics in 1964 after nine years with Westinghouse Research Laboratory. He became Professor Emeritus in 1992 in order to devote himself to research in solid state physics and materials science as well as in his avocational field, psychoenergetics. He holds several patents, and he has written four books and more than 300 papers."
The Randi Foundation identified Tiller in 1979 as "the scientist who had said the silliest thing" relating to parapsychology in the past year.
Tiller claims to have discovered a new class of natural phenomena which he calls "subtle energies", which manifest themselves in the practices of healers and other practitioners of the paranormal. Tiller defines the term psychoenergetics as the study of these energies in relation to human consciousness. He sees a connection between nonphysical consciousness and the quantum phenomena. These findings are not accepted in the mainstream scientific community.
He is currently director of the Tiller Foundation, an organization devoted to his research in subtle energies and psychoenergetics, and a retailer of his books and merchandise.
Question: what exactly is the "energy underlying all reality" that Quantum Mechanics is now pointing to?
The reason I ask this is because if this energy has a specific purpose and a specific nature, it is limited, and in that case, cannot be the "energy" that the ancients have been talking about. Or Brahman, God, Tao or Emptiness or whatever name you want to give to it.

I love how science is simply confirming in its own language, what the mystics have known for ever. A lot of the ancient systems for mental and physical health that could never be defined before are now being confirmed.

I really think this guy is high. Where is this mans evidence? What energy? It can measure the condition space of the atom/molecule to the vacuum? Seems like he may be on to something but he's adding in voodoo for some fucking reason.

I kept waiting for him to say: "It's an energy field created by all living things. It surrounds us, penetrates us, and binds the galaxy together."

chakras, chi, acupuncture, vibrations, parallel universes. This is obviously the answer to life, the universe and everything. The vacuum energy being greater than the atom energy? How can you say that without ever measuring this vacuum energy? I highly doubt this device he's talking about will ever get a patent, if exists. I have no doubt he'll try to sell it nevertheless.
