Bioelectromagnetism
Alpha waves in the human brain are between 6 and 8 hertz. Te wave frequency of the human cav
ity resonates between 6 and 8 hertz. All biological systems operate in the same frequency range.
Te human brain’s alpha waves function in this range and the electrical resonance of the earth is
between 6 and 8 hertz. Tus, our entire biological system- the brain and the earth itself- work on
the same frequencies. If we can control that resonance system electronically, we can direct control
the entire mental system of humankind.

Schumann resonance is the resonance mode that exist in the cavity established between the earth’s sur
face and the lower edge of ionosphere. Tese signals remain topics of today’s study.
3.4 Natural Electromagnetic Fields and Biological Systems
We are exposed daily to electromagnetic felds, both from natural and man-made sources. Te naturally
occurring electromagnetic felds originate from properties of the earth’s molten liquid core, electric dis
charges in the atmosphere (terrestrial sources), and solar and lunar activities (extraterrestrial sources).
Man-made electromagnetic felds come mainly from 50 to 60 Hz power transmission and distribution
lines and from the electrical appliances driven at the 50/60 Hz and thus are classifed as extremely low
frequency (ELF) felds. Te relationship between natural occurred ELF felds and bioactivity in human
and vertebrates is briefy introduced.
3.4.1 Electromagnetic Fields and Humans
Many researchers have speculated that the frequencies of SR in the earth-ionosphere cavity have played
a role in the evolution of all living organisms’ brainwave patterns (König, 1977; Hainsworth, 1984; Price,
2016; Price et al., 2021). According to Hainsworth, the human central nervous system has the synchroni
zation with biorhythms through the use of SR. For example, the frequencies of SR lie in the brain wave
spectrum. Tese electromagnetic wave signals may be expected to have biological efects. Lightning
discharge generates electromagnetic resonances within earth-ionosphere cavity. In the 1950s and 1960s,
many experiments were being carried out to investigate the similarities between natural ELF electric
felds that appeared in the atmosphere and the activity in human. Most interesting experiments were
performed on human biorhythms.
Schumann and König were interested in the biological efects of atmospherics. Tey researched rela
tionships between SRs and life on earth. Teir research covered, from an infuence on yeast cells, bac
teria, animals to humans (König, 1977; König et al., 1981). Among their researches, they demonstrated a
link between SR and brain rhythms. König showed that all of the fundamental frequencies and patterns
of human brain wave (EEG) activity are measured within the Schumann cavity (earth-ionosphere) as
local feld variations during thunderstorms. König compared EEG recordings with natural electromag
netic felds in the environment and found that they lie in the same frequency range. He speculated that
this is possibly no coincidence, but a human adaptation to the electromagnetic environment over the
long course of evolution. As these frequencies are in the same region as those of human brain waves,
the possibility of correlation between these ELF electromagnetic phenomena and human activity has
been considered. König conducted an interesting experiment during an automobile trafc exhibition
in Munich in 1953 (König and Ankermüller, 1960; König, 1977). Using visitors as subjects, the subject
was seated in a chair, and as soon as the light in front of the seat was turned on, the hand-held reactor
was measured. Te correlation between naturally occurred ELF electric feld and reaction time to light
signal was investigated. Te results showed that when type I signals increase, reaction time became
shorter. When type II signals were present, reaction times became longer. Tese results were confrmed
in experiments using artifcially produced 8–10 and 3 Hz (1 V/m) (König, 1977). Although there were
