The scientific vision of reality is not at odds with its poetic perception. After all, it is precisely the curiosity for surprising facts that have led us to the development of different sciences. Sometimes sublime discoveries worthy of admiration arise and, in a surprising analogy, we now know that the body emits light before dying, just as supernovas do when they are about to perish.
The omnipresent light of life
It’s been known for over three decades that cells emit light. Fritz Albert Popp proved that all living beings emit light. Perhaps these gleaming flashes of life go unnoticed by our eyes because the electromagnetic spectrum to which they belong is not one that the human eye can perceive. Nevertheless, the light is still there.
Popp named these ultraweak light emissions biophotons and discovered that they play a fundamental role in cell communication. The language by which cells stay interconnected is precisely light, which is involved in the organization of different functions. From this perspective, the health of an organism is aligned with the coherence of these biophotonic emissions. Popp himself explained to journalist Lynne McTaggart that certain diseases can be identified by patterns of chaotic light emission.
Popp’s theory makes a lot of sense if we think that the main engine of life is precisely the Sun. From his perspective, cells store photons from sunlight and from the food they consume. It is not surprising that photosynthetic organisms are precisely those with the highest biophotonic emission.
Cells as supernovas
So far, we understand that the human body, and that of all living organisms, are flashing entities that transpire light from their cells. But in an even more incredible twist, while studying various diseases and the behavior of biophotons, Popp and his research team found that the body emits light before it dies. When a cell is on the verge of death, it emits hundreds of times more biophoton radiation than it normally does. And there is no way to refrain from making an analogy that borders on the poetic, comparing this behavior to that of supernovas that are massive stars on the verge of gravitational collapse.
But in addition, Popp theorized that the last strongest flash of the cells acts as a defense mechanism to restore the balance of the system. And returning to the analogy, perhaps the flash of light from the cells has a similar result to the thermonuclear explosion of supernovas. Just as the flash of the cells helps restoring the system, the explosion of supernovas has an end for the common good. It enriches the galactic medium by disseminating heavy chemical elements so that new stars can form.
Perhaps we have been all this time before a fractalized existence, as it is in the microcosm, so it is in the macrocosm. This is not the only case of a relationship between the behavior of the microscopic world and the interstellar universe. The Universe itself behaves like a large human brain, according to recent research.
