Based on remarks by Dr. Hamid, U.N. Advisor for Agriculture, at a Medical Press Conference, March 1993, with comments by Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi.
Can meditation influence agriculture?
While this question may seem unusual from a modern scientific perspective, Dr. Hamid, a United Nations advisor specializing in agriculture, presented observations from his work suggesting that subtle environmental influences may have measurable effects on plant health and crop productivity.
Speaking at a Medical Press Conference in March 1993, Dr. Hamid shared his experiences using what he described as vibrated water in forestry and agriculture, followed by additional comments from Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi on the broader implications of these observations.
Listening to Trees That Cannot Speak
Dr. Hamid began by drawing a contrast between medicine and agriculture.
Physicians treat human beings who can describe their symptoms, helping doctors identify the source of illness. In agriculture, however, plants and trees cannot communicate their problems.
“Trees could not speak and could not tell what is wrong with me. We have to have some understanding and to understand the trees.”
For agricultural scientists, the challenge is learning to recognize signs of stress, disease, or poor environmental conditions through careful observation and experimentation.

Using Vibrated Water in Agriculture
Dr. Hamid described experiments involving water that had been exposed to the vibrations of Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi, referring to it as vibrated water.
According to his observations, applying this water to forests, farms, and cultivated land produced several notable effects:
Improved crop production
Healthier trees
Stronger root systems
Better overall environmental conditions for plant growth
He summarized his findings simply:
“We use this vibrated water in a wood, in a forest, in a farm. Not only we increase our crops, but we get a very healthy wood and its root is a very healthy, good environment.”
His comments reflected years of agricultural research focused on practical outcomes rather than theoretical discussion.
Shri Mataji’s Perspective
Following Dr. Hamid’s remarks, Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi expanded on the potential applications of divine vibrations in agriculture.
She stated that crops could experience dramatic improvements through the action of vibrations, describing examples that she presented as evidence of this phenomenon.
Among the examples she mentioned were:
Significant increases in crop yields
Exceptionally large sunflowers, including one reportedly measuring approximately two feet in diameter
A sunflower producing approximately 250 grams of sunflower oil
Improvements in animal husbandry
Enhanced agricultural performance using ordinary, untreated seeds
According to Shri Mataji, these effects did not depend on genetically modified or specially prepared seeds but occurred using conventional agricultural materials.
Divine Vibrations and Nature
Shri Mataji suggested that these agricultural improvements were expressions of a universal divine energy operating throughout nature.
She acknowledged that not everyone shares the same religious beliefs, inviting listeners to consider the phenomenon from a broader perspective.
Rather than focusing solely on theology, she encouraged people to think in terms of a universal divine force or subtle energy that acts throughout creation.
In her words, these vibrations are capable of nourishing and harmonizing living systems, including plants, animals, and human beings.
Research Across Countries
Shri Mataji also highlighted Dr. Hamid’s international work.
Originally from Iran and later serving in Austria in a senior agricultural role, Dr. Hamid conducted numerous agricultural experiments examining these methods.
According to her remarks, he documented his findings and presented lectures at several universities during his visit, sharing his observations with academic audiences interested in agriculture and environmental science.
Agriculture and the Search for Sustainable Solutions
Modern agriculture continues to explore ways of improving crop productivity while reducing environmental impact. Soil biology, water quality, microbial ecosystems, and plant signaling have all become active areas of scientific investigation.
Dr. Hamid’s presentation introduced another perspective—one rooted in Sahaja Yoga—which proposes that subtle vibrations may influence the vitality of living systems. While these claims extend beyond mainstream agricultural science and require rigorous experimental validation under controlled conditions, they reflect an area of inquiry that some researchers and practitioners have sought to explore.
Whether viewed through the lens of spirituality, complementary research, or personal experience, the central idea remains the same: healthy plants thrive in healthy environments, and understanding the deeper factors that influence life may open new avenues for sustainable agriculture.
Key Takeaways
Dr. Hamid, a U.N. agricultural advisor, emphasized that agriculture requires understanding plants that cannot communicate their needs.
He reported positive observations from using vibrated water in forests and farms, including healthier trees, stronger root systems, and improved crop yields.
Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi attributed these effects to divine vibrations acting throughout nature and stated that even ordinary seeds could produce remarkable results.
Dr. Hamid’s work was presented as the outcome of agricultural experiments conducted internationally and shared with university audiences.
These observations represent claims made at the 1993 conference and invite further scientific investigation into the relationship between subtle environmental influences and plant growth.
