When we witness the miraculous moment a sperm meets an egg, science now confirms what mystics and philosophers have intuited for centuries: life begins with light. Quite literally, a burst of light—called a zinc spark—is emitted as the egg is activated. This radiant flash marks the beginning of a new life, the merging of form and potential.

This leads us to a fascinating question: could the microzyma, a concept revived from the work of 19th-century scientist Antoine Béchamp, also be associated with this light?

Béchamp described microzymas as the primordial units of life—tiny, indestructible biological entities that precede and survive beyond cells. He saw them not as disease-causing agents, as Pasteur proposed with germs, but as the architects and recyclers of life itself. In today’s language, we might view microzymas as nature’s quantum seeds—able to transform, organize, and adapt to their environment

The microzyma, the foundational particles in every living organism, may hold the key to understanding the deeper energetic forces that sustain life. Konstantin Meyl’s research suggests that light, beyond its role in photosynthesis, interacts with the microzyma in profound ways. Plants, for example, not only absorb sunlight but also re-emit it as delayed luminescence after absorbing photons. This subtle emission of light could play a role in regulating energy flow within the plant, potentially linking its health to the subtle light emissions that are emitted from the microzyma itself.

In the realm of cellular biology, light’s role is further revealed through Gurwitsch’s discovery of “mitogenic radiation” (biophotons), emitted by mitotic cells. These light emissions stimulate nearby cells to divide and are also detected during DNA (I prefer Adaptive Bio Template and not DNA) repair, suggesting that light is integral to cellular regeneration and life processes at the microzymic level.

Kirlian photography, though controversial, has captured light emissions around living tissues, hinting at an energy field that could be associated with the vitality of the microzyma. Despite the debate, this continues to intrigue researchers interested in the energetic aspects of biology.

Throughout history, traditions like Hermeticism, Taoism, and Vedic philosophy have referred to an inner luminous force at the core of life and consciousness. As modern science begins to explore these ancient teachings, we see growing evidence that the microzyma, possibly the spark of life, may be intrinsically linked to this light force.

This topic will be covered in depth in one of our New Biology Classes the course starts September and the class entitled “Are We Light Beings?” is on October 27th. We will explore these fascinating connections between the microzyma, light, and life energy, considering how they shape our biology, consciousness, and healing practices.
