Abstract

Stress- and inflammation-related disorders remain the dominant global health burdens, yet few preventive tools operate across molecular, psychological, and social scales. We hypothesize that OM-induced vibrational coherence functions as a mathematical–cum-biophysical regulator capable of harmonizing energy from cellular metabolism to genomic expression through the vagal–microbiome–brain axis. Following the physical law that energy transforms but is conserved, the OM-to-Genome continuum extends this principle to living systems, where metabolic, immune, reproductive, and neural energies represent biological analogues of potential, chemical, and kinetic forms. Mathematics provides the syntax of these transformations—frequency, proportion, and rhythm—governing energy construction and deconstruction from birth to death. Within the author’s Evolution-to-Solution framework, OM vibration mediates these conversions, translating conscious intent into physiological order. Evidence from neuroimaging, electrophysiology, and molecular biology supports this pathway as a low-cost, culturally neutral mechanism for stress regulation and immune balance. Integrating mathematics, physics, chemistry, and physiology thus yields a unified One Health model linking awareness and biology through a single law of energy coherence.

1. Background

1.1. Global Context

Chronic psychosocial stress and persistent low-grade inflammation account for most non-communicable morbidity worldwide [1,2,3]. Excessive sympathetic activity drains metabolic and immune reserves, whereas insufficient parasympathetic recovery blocks repair. Pharmacological therapy seldom restores energetic proportion or prevents social propagation of stress.

1.2. From Physics to Biology

Physics defines energy as the capacity to do work, manifesting in interchangeable potential, kinetic, thermal, and electromagnetic forms. Chemistry translates this into molecular bonds and reaction enthalpy; biology inherits it as metabolic, immune, reproductive, and neural energy, each obeying conservation and transformation laws [4,5,6]. Schrödinger described life as a system that “feeds on negative entropy” [7]. Fröhlich and Noble proposed that coherent oscillations sustain cellular organisation [8,9].
The OM-to-Genome hypothesis extends this logic: vibration is the universal medium through which these transformations achieve coherence.

Health represents the solution to a dynamic equation in which biological variables oscillate within harmonic ranges; disease denotes deviation from these solutions.
Box 2. Mathematics as the Master Law of Order: From Zero to Infinity.
Mathematics governs every transformation in nature. It is the invisible syntax that shapes both external physico-chemical reactions and the inner physiological dynamics of living beings. Even apparent randomness follows probability fields that maintain systemic balance; when these underlying equations collapse, coherence fails, leading to structural or physiological breakdown.
Energy therefore operates through organised proportion, scaling from zero—the potential state—to infinity, the manifested state of consciousness.
The OM-to-Genome continuum interprets this progression as a living equation in which order, not chance, sustains existence. Disease and disorder represent points where mathematical symmetry diverges, while health signifies the restoration of that symmetry through coherent vibration.

1.3. Philosophical Convergence

Ancient philosophies perceived vibration as the universal code of creation, and modern science recognises mathematics as the invisible grammar of that code. Both describe the same principle: energy behaves according to definable ratios and harmonics. Randomness beyond these boundaries equates to entropy—the collapse of mathematical order and the onset of biological disease. Systems biology now identifies oscillatory gene networks and biochemical cycles as the measurable signatures of vitality [10,11,12].

1.4. Dual Laboratories

The author’s Evolution-to-Solution model distinguishes two complementary laboratories:
An inner laboratory of awareness and intention and an outer laboratory of measurable physiology. Linking them converts subjective regulation into quantifiable pattern—a direct expression of mathematical symmetry. Originally this Evolution-to-Solution concept originated from the author’s earlier expert commentary outlining how mosquito molecular physiology can transcend vector control toward integrative biological understanding and societal harmony [13]. This foundational idea—“Translating Physiology to Philosophy: Research for Peace”—provided the conceptual seed for extending the OM-to-Genome hypothesis into a cross-disciplinary continuum uniting biology, mathematics, and consciousness.

1.5. Empirical Evidence

OM chanting enhances parasympathetic tone and HRV [14], increases alpha–theta EEG coherence [15], and suppresses limbic activation [16]. Similar effects follow electrical vagal stimulation [17]. Controlled vibration thus restores proportionality across autonomic, immune, and genomic systems.
Recent molecular findings further reinforce this continuum between external vibrational stimuli and internal genomic responses. For example, Saini et al. [18] demonstrated that a Sensory Appendage Protein (SAP) in Anopheles culicifacies acts as a biochemical bridge linking external chemical oscillations—such as exposure to pyrethroid compounds—to internal neuronal and metabolic signaling. This SAP-mediated “alarm” translates environmental perturbation into altered neurochemical communication with the mosquito brain, revealing how molecular resonance at the sensory periphery can reorganize physiological states. Analogously, in humans, vibrational practices such as OM chanting might engage homologous chemosensory–neural pathways that synchronize immune and neuroendocrine responses to environmental stressors. The SAP discovery thus provides a molecular precedent for vibration-driven information flow from the external milieu to central regulatory networks—a pattern conserved across species and consistent with the proposed OM-to-Genome continuum.

2. The Hypothesis

OM-induced vibrational coherence is a mathematically governed process of energy transduction converting conscious potential into physiological order.
Within the Evolution-to-Solution framework, vibration functions as the operator transforming energy across acoustic → bio-electric → biochemical → genomic domains.
Mathematically, each step maintains total system energy; health corresponds to resonance conditions where conversion functions align in phase.

3. Testing and Evidence Plan

A multilevel strategy will test whether OM practice improves energy efficiency and coherence across acoustic, neural, immunologic, and genomic scales:
• Randomised trials measuring HRV, oxygen consumption, and cortisol (entropy reduction).
• EEG/fMRI analysis for network efficiency approaching small-world optimality.
• Genomic and epigenetic profiling (NF-κB ↓, BDNF ↑).
• Microbiome diversity and SCFA production as chemical-energy feedback.
• Community studies assessing HRV phase synchrony among participants.
Integrated datasets will yield an Energy Coherence Index (ECI)—a quantitative marker of dynamic equilibrium.

4. Implications and One Health Integration

If resonance validates energy conservation across scales, it defines a universal law of bio-energetic coherence linking personal health and planetary sustainability.
Within One Health, inner equilibrium mirrors ecological stability—both are low-entropy, rhythmically regulated systems.
Policies could include:
  • Mathematics-to-Physiology curricula reconnecting quantitative and biological literacy.
  • Ten-minute OM sessions in schools and workplaces.
  • Hospital Energy Coherence Indices as systemic-balance biomarkers.
  • Acoustic-ecology standards protecting vibrational wellbeing.
Because proportion is universal, such practices remain culturally inclusive and economically scalable.

5. Limitations and Future Research

Empirical issues include sound-parameter standardization, multimodal synchrony, expectancy control, and the need for non-linear analytics (fractal, entropy, network topology). Mathematical and computational models should simulate resonance transfer; AI tools can detect coherence signatures in real time.
Comparative biology must test evolutionary conservation of these energetic laws.
Humility is essential: our equations only approximate the living mathematics of consciousness.

6. Conclusions

Health is the solution to a dynamic equation of energy transformation.
The OM-to-Genome continuum unites mathematics, physics, chemistry, and biology through the operational principle of vibration.
When awareness initiates coherent resonance, energy reorganises from potential to physiological order. Integrating these insights into public health offers a low-cost, culturally neutral means to manage stress and inflammation while advancing sustainability.
The Evolution-to-Solution initiative reframes medicine as a science of coherence, where inner and outer laboratories converge and where
OM = Order of Matter
The next frontier of healthcare may not be another molecule but the recovery of mathematical coherence—the recognition that life itself is a continuous solution of an equation extending from zero to infinity. Health is therefore the persistent resolution of proportion; consciousness, its self-aware variable. The arithmetic of harmony unites matter, energy, and mind within one continuum.
The conceptual bridge from energy to order is summarized schematically in Figure 1, which depicts the Mathematics-to-Physiology continuum. Beginning from the zero-state of potential energy, successive transformations through physical and chemical domains give rise to biological organization, culminating in Physiology (Ongics)—the vibrational expression of living order. This framework visually integrates the OM-to-Genome hypothesis, illustrating how mathematical symmetry and resonant coherence may underlie both physiological regulation and the broader One Health paradigm.

This schematic illustrates the proposed OM-to-Genome continuum linking mathematical symmetry, physical energy, chemical interaction, and biological coherence. Beginning at the “zero-state” of potential energy, ordered transformations propagate through physics and chemistry to culminate in physiology—depicted here as Physiology (Ongics), the integrative field that views living function as a vibrationally organized energy network.
“Ongics” (from OM + -omics) extends traditional omics sciences to include the study of coherent oscillations that connect sound, neural signalling, and genomic regulation. The continuum represents how resonant processes—whether acoustic, electromagnetic, or molecular—maintain order within the One Health framework, uniting inner and outer laboratories of observation.
