Scientist research on deeksha effects
Hi, I am ignorant, on the science field, and it seems that today, with interenet, anyone can claim to be a scientist and destroy whatever research has been done.
So, I decided to make this public, and see if any decent scientist could through more light on this issue: German scientist Christian Opitz, has done some research on the effects of deeksha, and an anonymous professor, has debate it, with a tone in his words, that for me is more suspicious to be just trying to ridiculize the whole work of Opitz.
But since my knowlege is so limitated, I ask for any serious feedback from someone expert on this field.
You can access the scientist comments on the next entry, or comment, clicking below this article. Thank you.

Christian Opitz:
The production of oxytocin is severely hindered in most people today and this often starts at birth. In the late 1940s, medicine began to use drugs at birth as if it was some kind of disease.
Among those drug, petocin (synthetic oxytocin) is used to induce contractions and thus birth, on the hospital's schedule instead of following the natural interaction between baby and mother.
Whenever we receive a huge dose of a synthetic version of a hormone, our receptors are overwhelmed and the body's own production can be compromised.
If this happens at birth, there can be permanent damage and a life - long pattern of producing too little oxytocin. It does not help much that the most important bonding phase between mother and child right after birth has become a medical procedure of taking blood, measuring the baby, cutting the umbilical cord too early and not allowing the baby a direct bonding with the mother and thus a gentle entrance into this world.
The combination of petocin and the lack of empathy for the newborn baby in medicalized birth procedures is almost certain to severely compromise oxytocin production.
It is interesting to note that heavy drug use at birth, from petocin to pain killers to even some psychedelic substances that are no longer used, was introduced after WWII.
When the first generation of babies who came into this world on drugs had arrived at young adulthood in the 1960s, they where the first generation to seek a deeper meaning of life through drugs. I believe the lack of natural oxytocin caused by drug use at the entrance into life can set up a strong recapitulation pattern of seeking life through drugs.Although it is very difficult to measure hormones and neurotransmitters in the brain directly, electromagnetic signature testing allows for some conclusions about the effects of diksha in this regard.
One of the main effects I have found with people who have been receiving diksha for a year or longer is a regeneration of receptors for both dopamine and oxytocin. This automatically leads to greater efficiency of these neurochemicals and a decrease in cortisol production.
Diksha can also regenerate the substantia nigra, where dopamine is produced and this directly shows up in changed electromagnetic brain patterns.
Many times I have observed a natural release of addictive patterns through diksha that where clearly related to low dopamine levels.
Another interesting parameter is the electromagnetic communication between the brain and the heart. This seems to progressively get stronger in people through diksha and is one of the most important energetic correlation's of the flowering of the heart and true compassion. In some of the Dasas and in Ron Roth, this connection was off the charts when I measured them. Oxytocin is the biochemical bridge between the brain and heart.
From the data I have gathered so far, diksha seems to be effective in strongly enhancing oxytocin in the vast majority of people. I also believe that this is one of the aspects of birth trauma that can be healed through diksha and that this effect makes diksha so worthwhile for children. Even though children are not supposed to enter into an enlightenment process, growing up with lots of oxytocin will give them a much more beautiful life experience.
We have here an anonimous university professor at a major research institution with a PhD in neuroscience, who debates Christian's research:
"Although the author does a good job describing the basic actions of several neuromodulators and neurotransmitters, he also makes several leaps of judgment based on the scientific data. Many of his claims are inflammatory and self-serving.
For example, the author claims that synthetic oxytocin used to induce birth contractions drastically alters either the receptor density or endogenous levels of oxytocin production postnatally. There is no evidence to back up this claim.
The author further states that the use of exogenous oxytocin after WWII created the "first generation to seek a deeper meaning of life through drugs."
First, there is no evidence that children born after WWII or babies exposed to exogenous oxytocin are neurologically different than previous generations nor unexposed cohorts.
Secondly, in almost every culture and historical period narcotics and/or alcohol were used in and for religious rituals. The desire to seek altered states is nothing new.
In all fairness, the author's unsubstantiated claims may be correct but should be tested. However, making these claims without supporting data seems to be used as a scare tactic used to make readers feel victimized by Western Science/Medicine who then may be compeled to seek "healing" from the author through diksha.
The most questionable aspect of this diatribe is the author's claim that he has tested alterations in neurotransmitters, hormones, and receptors via electromagnetic signature testing.
There is no scientific data to support that this technique is viable. There are other, well established, means of testing changes in neurotransmitters and hormones via blood and saliva testing. There are also newer techniques using magnetic resonance spectroscopy, similar to a MRI, to test alterations in neurotransmitters and receptor turn-over.
There is some very good research that has and is being conducted demonstrating that meditation and prayer can have profound effects upon stress hormones and even upon the immune system. However, abuse of scientific data in the hands of a pseudo-scientist or false guru dilutes the power of the authentic research and the fascinating discoveries these studies produce.
hi, i found this: http://www.nordiconeness.se/Deeksha%20EEG%20research.pdf
it may help you.

Thanks...
Anyways I DON'T KNOW THAT MACHINE... MAYBE WE COULD ALSO TRY TO MAKE THAT EXPERIMENT WITH ONE FELLOW WHO NEVER DID THE 21 DAYS PROCESS, AND PUT HANDS ON A HEAD PRETENDING HE IS GIVING DEEKSHA,... AND SEE WHAT HAPPENS...
MAYBE SAME RESULTS...
THANKS FOR UR FINDING.
Hello Shreya
First of all I am not someone knowledgeable :(
Is Diksha a form of Shaktipat? I have some experience with the latter. I can testify that the energy transfer during Shaktipat is real (feels that way, anyway), but its effects are not lasting. One has better results over the long term if one is working to change one's life and habits. Whatever damage we may have incurred at birth, as described in your article, our own empiric evidence is that creating a loving bond in the couple as described by Marnia in her book can go a long way towards healing past mistakes, and produce that oxytocin that we were previously lacking of.
The only other reference I can find is here:

I cannot comment on the scientific data, because I have not seen the data... and I am not a scientist. What I would like to see in a scientific study, though, is the long term results of such a procedure (Diksha). I am a bit warry of Guru worship: this has been abused by so many so-called Gurus today and in the past. And as for my experience with Shaktipat: I didn't benefit from it over the long term, because I had not learned to walk on my own two feet.
If the goal is to benefit from having more oxytocin, then we need no other Guru than one's sexual partner to practice "coitus reservatus" with.
If more knowledgeable and scientific people happen to read this thread, please do share with us your knowledge.
I am sorry I cannot be of more help at this stage.
