Mahendra Kumar Trivedi is the founding father of Trivedi International, Inc., a supplier of well being and wellness merchandise and companies. His Google Scholar profile lists 795 publications with a collective quotation rely of 12,032 (as of July 31, 2024). This prolific output reached its peak in 2015, with 268 papers.
“How is that this potential?” chances are you’ll ask. Here is the explanation. Solely 17 of 795 articles are listed in PubMed. All of the others have been printed in journals that don’t meet the standard requirements of MEDLINE. {This can be a truth.}1
The Nationwide Library of Drugs decides whether or not a journal is included in MEDLINE (the supply database for PubMed) based mostly on:
- Scope and Protection
- Editorial Insurance policies and Processes
- Scientific Rigor/Methodological Rigor
- Manufacturing and Administration
- Affect
So-called “predatory” journals – first documented by librarian Jeffrey Beall – don’t meet the standard requirements for MEDLINE.
In accordance with Wikipedia, predatory publishing “is an exploitative tutorial publishing enterprise mannequin, the place the journal or writer prioritizes self-interest on the expense of scholarship. It’s characterised by deceptive data, deviates from the usual peer evaluation course of, is extremely non-transparent, and sometimes makes use of aggressive solicitation practices.”
In such journals, the time between manuscript submission and acceptance for publication is alarmingly quick, main some to query whether or not sufficient peer evaluation had taken place.
Listed below are a number of examples for Trivedi et al. (2015). Observe that point from submission to publication was 8-10 days.2
In vitro Analysis of Biofield Therapy on Viral Load Towards Human Immunodeficiency-1 and Cytomegalo Viruses
American Journal of Well being Analysis (Quantity 3, Concern 6)

{Qualification: Science Publishing Group claims that articles are
peer-reviewed, though some have compiled proof on the contrary.}
Why is that this essential? When an organization tries to promote services and products which are “backed by science,” we’re free to judge the proof for these claims.
My earlier publish launched you to Mr. Trivedi and his Divine Connection:
“Guruji Mahendra Kumar Trivedi is an Enlightened and miraculous being with Divine Embodiment, gifted to rework dwelling organisms on the genetic stage & non-living supplies on the atomic stage. … Guruji’s Blessing has impacted the lives of tons of of 1000’s of individuals globally, and has been validated globally with cutting-edge scientific analysis.”
I learn a 2023 paper, The position of biofield power remedy on psychological signs, psychological well being issues, and stress‐associated high quality of life in grownup topics: A randomized managed medical trial (listed in PubMed), and located irregularities and questionable outcomes. I’m assured that a number of the reported knowledge are physiologically unimaginable. Thus, I urged the journal to rethink the paper and the writer (Wiley) to retract it from the scientific literature {if warranted}.
The backside line (so to talk) for Trivedi International, Inc. is web income from gross sales of Distant Blessing Memberships:
1 Blessing, $250 monthly (solely $200 monthly for blessings from his spouse, Dahryn)
2 Blessings, $400 monthly ($300 monthly for Dahryn)
…
Every day Blessings, $2,000 monthly
Path to Enlightenment Memberships
Platinum, $10,000 monthly
Caveat emptor.

Mahendra Kumar Trivedi : Remodel Your Life With The Science Of Miracles
Mahendra Trivedi together with different Trivedi Masters have the supernatural potential to rework dwelling organisms and non-living substances via the facility of their ideas, generally known as The Trivedi Impact®.
Trivedi impact® – the Skeptic’s Dictionary
TE is an “unknown” power. Properly, it was unknown till 1995, when Trivedi “obtained ‘steering’ from Common Intelligence that the present he had been given was now for use for the welfare of mankind.”
Mahendra Trivedi
was examined extensively on the Penn State College’s Supplies Analysis
Laboratory on a number of events from June – September 2009, and we didn’t observe any modifications in supplies
or their properties on account of his “blessings”. We examined MANY stable, powdered and liquid
supplies, together with radioactive supplies.
“Blessed” samples have been unchanged.
Whereas there have been sporadic modifications to a handful of water samples as
noticed with 785 nm Raman spectroscopy, it should be understood that the modifications
(a) weren’t reproducible, (b) occurred typically to the blessed samples and
typically to the management samples and (c) have been most certainly attributable to an issue we
have been having with an unstable laser supply on the Raman spectrometer, which was
knowen to fluctuate in depth and produce the sorts of sporadic outcomes that
have been noticed.
Mr. Trivedi sued Dr. Slawecki (see PDF) for these and different statements, however the case was dismissed.
The Trivedi Defect, by Mike Mosedale (Minnesota Lawyer, July 2015) – journalist Dennis Lang is sued.
