Saudi Gazette report HOFUF — The fourth biennial “King of Organs” international heart conference opened at the Inter.Continental Hotel in Hofuf, Eastern Province, Saturday. Now a major fixture on the medical conference scene, the event promotes a new understanding of the heart not just as a life-maintaining pump but as an organ that works on previously unconsidered non-physical levels hinted at by historical perceptions of the organ. Professor Abdullah Al-Abdulqader, founder and chairman of the event, said the traditional view of the heart as the center of emotion and spiritual aspects of life might have more than a grain of truth in it. “Eminent scientists and heart researchers from across the world have done studies that support the idea that the heart works on the electromagnetic as well as the physical level,” Al-Abdulqader told Saudi Gazette. He said this suggested that the heart was in some form “communicating” with other organs, generating a field around the body that was now the subject of serious study. Al-Abdulqader believed that the study of the electromagnetic aspects of the heart was an extremely significant area of research that was being explored seriously for the first time in the “King of Organs” conferences. The increasing database of knowledge of the existence and effects of solar eruptions, solar winds and the effects of changing magnetism and even gravity suggested that these massive physical events needed to be explored for their impact on human life and well being. One of the central aims of the conference is to build an integrated area of cardiovascular medicine that leads to a fuller and more complete understanding of exactly what the heart does. The conference brings together scientists, doctors and nursing caregivers with the ultimate goal of improving overall the cardiac practice throughout the world. During the conference, the delegates will take a critical view at current and past practices in cardiovascular medicine, the lack of improved morbidity and mortality rates and the effects of underestimating the impact of stress in human lifestyles. “There is a great need to establish a new biological approach to cardiovascular research that incorporates both the terrestrial and extra-terrestrial elements,” said Al-Abdulqader. Over the four days of the conference focus will be on heart energy and its magnetic fields and their impact on a healthy life, innovative techniques, current cardiovascular research trends and a particular focus on the causes of heart disease. A highlight of the conference is likely to be the greatly anticipated live streaming of a heart operation carried out by a robot in a local hospital.
