Max Planck was a great man, but he was a pariah (along with Einstein) by the time he was credited with this quote (1944). Don't get me wrong though, we really shouldn't be critical of him, just because he weighted in on ultimately the wrong side of the issue. The logical arguments of Planck and Einstein were powerful, and very well thought out; the true horror was that they were wrong anyway. He died shortly before Tomonaga, Schwinger, and Feynman completed the quantum electro-dynamics project ("the jewel of physics") solidifying our modern understanding of interactions between electrons and light (for which they jointly received the Nobel Prize), so we will never know his response to them.

Vladimir Poponin is a Russian "doctor" and works with "biophotons". He apparently works for the Institute of HeartMath currently (listed by www.quackwatch.com) as a "Questionable Organization". Do you have anything that isn't listed by QuackWatch (I'm just kidding, well kind of...)?
Quote (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biophoton)
Biophotons were employed by the Stalin regime to diagnose cancer, and their discoverer, Alexander Gurwitsch was awarded the Stalin Prize, though the method has not been tested in the west. However, more recently there have been claims that, by "harnessing the energy of biophotons", supposed natural cures for cancer are possible. Commercial products and services based on these latter claims appear at present to be best regarded as base and baseless pseudo-science.

Gregg Braden: Talking about electric and magnetic fields and how they relate to the heart, the brain, and global consciousness.
To be honest, I stopped the video at 7 seconds in when it said "Sedona, Arizona". Sedona is the Mecca of gobbledygook (can you see I'm struggling for different medifores?) pseudo-science. It might as well have said "pulled from a monkey's butt".
Also you still haven't answered my question:

now many Newtons of force are exerted between your consciousnesss and say someone 10 meters away. Again, please show your work.
I'm 100% serious about this question. When you say something exerts a force, you should be able to supply the force law, otherwise you sound like one of those Jedi weirdos. I mean for example how does this force diminish with distance? Is it an inverse square law? Surely if you believe this you should know this much about it at least, unless of course you are just "pulling it out of monkey's butt"...
