How to examine a tensor field and its frequency?
Introduction
In previous articles, I have occasionally written about tensor rings – those metal circles that many people believe emit (or concentrate) some mysterious "torsional fields". Few in the scientific community treat them as "facts" in the strict sense, but in esoteric and radiesthesia circles, there is a belief that these subtle energies truly affect humans, chakras, or the home environment.
Today, I would like to take a look at the topic of measurement methods. Is it possible to detect something whose existence has not been officially confirmed by modern physics? Indeed, there are people who try – some using a pendulum or a radiesthesia rod, others through the analysis of Kirlian photography, and still others, more fascinated by the "tech" side, reach for oscilloscopes and broadband meters.In this article, we will take a closer look at how all of this works in practice, where the rough method ends and pure faith comes into play, and what science has to say about it all (or rather, what it does not say).
It is worth noting that most of the approaches described here are not featured in peer-reviewed scientific papers, and their results are often treated by skeptics as anecdotal or as a placebo effect. Nevertheless, if you are into the world of holism, spiritual development, or dowsing, you will certainly find many interesting threads here.
Why is measuring the tensor field a challenge?
Lack of a uniform definition
From the perspective of universities and standard physics, the matter is clear: you will not find a chapter on "tensor rings" in textbooks. In quantum physics, we have the concept of torsion fields (torsion fields), but this does not necessarily align with what esotericists and dowsers mean when they talk about "tensors" or "torsion fields".Inconsistency in terminology automatically makes a scientist look at it quite suspiciously.
The subtlety of the phenomenon
Proponents of rings claim that such a field is something exceptionally subtle, difficult to detect with classical equipment based on electromagnetism. As a result, they say that a standard meter is not enough, as we are dealing with a "super-physical" or "energetic" band of vibrations. Naturally, this is another reason why the academic world – accustomed to specific, repeatable results – turns up its nose.
Lack of standardization of tools and procedures
Even among dowsers, there is no full agreement on how to conduct such a measurement. One will grab a pendulum, another will use a dowsing rod, and a third will turn on some Kirlian camera. It is difficult to develop an unambiguous methodology and replicate the same results under different conditions.It's no wonder, then, that skeptics consider this an argument: "If everyone does it their own way, where's the objectivity?"
Popular subjective and dowsing methods
Pendulum and dowsing rods
The old, good dowsing approach. When I visited various esoteric fairs or conducted conversations with practitioners, someone always pulled out a pendulum or a rod and did a demonstration of "energy testing".
Pendulum: The principle is that you hold it over the tensor ring, either inside or at the edge, and watch to see if it starts to spin, in which direction, and with what amplitude. Based on this, the dowser infers whether the field is strong, weak, positive, or neutral.
Rods: Two rods (often made of wire) in the hands. If they spread apart when approaching the ring, it's a sign that "something is radiating there". If they cross, the interpretation can also be that the field is intense.Of course, everything depends on the skills and – let's face it – the subjective predispositions of the operator.
From the perspective of hard scientific evidence, the results of these tests are difficult to verify because they are based on an individual's sensitivity and their personal "sensitivity" to stimuli.
Radiesthesia scales and measurement tables
Someone might ask: "Okay, but how do you convert the result from the pendulum into some number?" At this point, various scales come into play, such as the Bovis scale. The radiesthetist places the pendulum over a printed table with values and "asks" the pendulum for a specific number. And supposedly, this way, one can estimate whether, for example, the ring's field reaches 20,000 units, 50,000, or 100,000. Enthusiasts believe in this method, while critics point out the lack of objectivity and repeatability.
Attempts at objective measurements
Kirlian cameras and high-frequency photography
At one time, there was much talk about Kirlian photographs – images showing corona discharges around objects in a high-voltage field. Esotericists claim that this can capture the aura, while classical physics states that it is simply the effect of differences in electrical conductivity (humidity, dirt, sweat on the skin, etc.).
In the context of tensor rings: some attempt to photograph them using the Kirlian method and compare the images – with and without the ring. Sometimes they see particular glows, interpreting this as evidence of an enhanced energy field.
GDV (Gas Discharge Visualization)
An extension of the Kirlian concept, also known as Dr. Korotkov's method. In a nutshell: the computer records the image of discharges around the fingertip to assess the "energetic condition" of a person.Some researchers on the border of science and esotericism test whether there is a difference in these discharges when holding a tensor ring. Official science states that this may be a psychological effect, a change in skin perspiration, etc. But supporters are convinced that if the GDV parameters look "better", it's a sign that the ring contributes something.
Analysis of electromagnetic radiation in a wide band
A tougher method involves taking a wideband EM wave meter, placing the ring in a Faraday cage, and checking if anything changes in the readings. In most experiments, nothing significant comes out. Skeptics consider this as proof that the tensor field does not exist in terms of electromagnetic detection. Enthusiasts - that it is a "non-physical" field and a standard meter will not detect anything there.
Theory of tensor ring frequencies
“Sacred measures” and specific vibration bands
You may have heard that in rings, the length of the wire (known as the cubit) is crucial. According to Slim Spurling and other creators, each variant of the cubit resonates at a different value in megahertz:
- Standard Cubit: approximately 144 MHz
- Lost Cubit: somewhere around 177 MHz
- Royal Cubit: often reported as ~188 MHz
In theory, it should be enough to set a wave generator to 144 MHz and check if the ring "responds" resonantly. Unfortunately, in practice, few have confirmed this in a way that satisfies the scientific community.
Can these frequencies be measured with an oscilloscope?
It has been attempted: an oscilloscope, a wave generator, an antenna, and a ring are used to search for a "peak" in the spectrum. The results can be unclear and are easily disturbed by signals from the environment (radio stations, Wi-Fi, etc.).There is also no standardized procedure, so each research group does it their own way, which makes it difficult to compare results.
Subjective experimental methods beyond dowsing
Applied kinesiology tests (muscle test)
It involves assessing the muscle strength of a person who holds a ring or is surrounded by it. If the muscle weakens or strengthens, conclusions are drawn about the beneficial or harmful effect of the object. Critics say it's a matter of suggestion and placebo, but in many alternative clinics, it is a standard practice for evaluating the "energy" of products.
Observation of changes in well-being and emotional state
The "by eye and by heart" method: you use the tensor ring for a while, sleep with it, meditate, and note whether you have a better mood, less stress, easier concentration, etc. For enthusiasts, this is enough as proof. For science - not necessarily.
Academic research and tensor fields
A modest number of publications
When it comes to peer-reviewed scientific journals with high Impact Factors, there is a drought. The topic mainly appears in enthusiasts' own materials, books on radiesthesia, and on the internet.
Reasons for the scientific community's distrust
- Lack of repeatable results in controlled experiments
- Lack of a coherent theoretical model
- The placebo effect and autosuggestion as possible explanations
Potential directions for future research
One could imagine that a university team might organize a series of tests with control groups – giving some "real" rings and others "fake" ones. If the results were significantly different, we would have a breakthrough.
Controversies and interpretive caution
Overinterpretation of results
Even if someone notices a deviation in the measurements of a pendulum or a Kirlian camera, attributing it to a certain indisputable theory about tensor fields is quite bold. Science requires replicability, and here it is difficult to achieve under strict control conditions.
Placebo effect and autosuggestion
I often repeat this – the human psyche is powerful. If we believe that the ring supports us, we may indeed feel an improvement in well-being. This does not necessarily prove the existence of non-physical energies, but some will say: "If it works, why complain?"
Commercialization of the topic
When something becomes popular and promises "extraordinary properties," sellers always appear who profit from it.I am not claiming that they are always dishonest, but it is worth staying vigilant because prices can be absurdly high, and the so-called "scientific evidence" can be highly exaggerated.
Is it possible to independently investigate the frequency of the tensor field?
Home experiments with dowsing
If you feel like playing the dowser, all you need is a pendulum (or even a thread with a weight) and some peace and quiet:
- Find a place free from distractions.
- Calm your breath and thoughts.
- Compare the movement of the pendulum without the ring and with the ring.
- Note what you observed.
Will this prove anything scientifically? No, but it might give you a personal sense of whether there is something to it or not.
Experiments with simple electronic equipment
People with a technical inclination can use, for example, an SDR receiver (Software Defined Radio) and observe the spectrum around 144 MHz, 177 MHz, etc.You check if any "spikes" are visible when you move the ring closer or further away. Usually, such tests do not yield sensational results, but some people note minor anomalies (typically, it is not known whether these are simply radio interferences).
Summary and Conclusions
The study of the tensor field and determining its "frequency" remains a highly debated topic. Some see it as a real, tangible phenomenon, while others view it as a collection of subjective practices and autosuggestion. If you ask me as a practitioner: in jewelry, I often encounter clients who believe that their rings actually possess energetic power. I see that this belief can be positive for them – it gives them better well-being, faith in protection, or relief from stress.
From a scientific standpoint – there is a lack of strong, repeatable evidence. Yet, the world is full of things we do not fully understand.For many people, incorporating tensor rings into their daily lives proves helpful, and this is a sufficient reason to use them.
My advice? Experiment cautiously. If you feel that the ring benefits you, great. If you see no difference, it might mean that this path is not for you. It's important not to abandon rational thinking – you don't need to immediately buy the most expensive rings on the market and believe they will solve all life's problems.
Final message
- Be open, but not naive: Sometimes it's worth trying new concepts because the world can surprise us. But there's no need to take everything on faith.
- Experiment and take notes: Each of us can conduct simple experiments with a pendulum or listening to radio waves. Even if it's not perfectly "scientific," it can provide interesting insights.
- Do not replace medicine: Remember that if you have serious health issues, tensor rings are not a miraculous remedy.
- Respect others' perspectives: This topic evokes emotions – some are enthusiastic, others mock. It is worth conducting the discussion with respect, as each side can contribute something valuable.
Until we have solid, academic research that clearly states "yes, it works" or "it's a scam," we remain in the realm of interesting speculations and personal experiences. Is that bad? Not necessarily – sometimes such areas between belief and unexplained phenomena can add a bit of mystery to the world, and to us – motivation for our own small discoveries. And that's what life is about too, to seek, experience, and form your own opinion.
Good luck with your research – and remember, regardless of the results, it's worth maintaining a distance and a dose of common-sense curiosity!
