Results of Research already conducted on the IM Method.
In a scientific study conducted in collaboration between the non profit organization CCASpain/España and the International University of Professional Studies (Hawaii, USA), the IM (Arka Dhyana) method was shown to produce a significant change towards a more feeling based consciousness as measured by the Feeling Consciousness Scale. The scale included items such as unity, peace, positivity, intuition, awareness of emotions and connection to one’s inner Self sometimes expressed as soul, inner being or atman. This was a pre post-test design conducted over six weeks. Answers to several open questions also indicated there is a possible link between increased sensitivity and intuition, particularly in women. In men the method brought about an increase in tranquility, clarity and presence in their bodies. These results are tentative due to the small sample size.
The results of this study support the feeling level of consciousness Arka mentions in his theory of the six main levels of consciousness.
