| In the late nineteenth
century, prominent physicists such as William Crookes and Oliver Lodge searched
for what they called the "psychic force" responsible for the mysterious
powers of the mind that was being exhibited by the mediums and other spiritualist
hucksters of the day. They thought it might be connected with the electromagnetic
"aether waves" that had just been discovered and were being put
to amazing use. If wireless telegraphy was possible, why not wireless telepathy?
While wireless telegraphy thrived, wireless telepathy made no progress in
the full century that followed. But even before the twentieth century saw
its first sunrise, the aether was found not to exist. By 1905, electromagnetic
signals were recognized as being carried by material particles we now call
photons.
Biological science developed within a totally materialistic model in
which everything could be understood in terms of the same material particles
and forces that were found in inanimate matter. From all we know in physics,
chemistry, and biology, living cells are made of the same quarks and electrons
as rocks. They interact with one another by the exchange of the same photons
and gluons.
Our understanding of the processes which go on below the quantum level
adds another nuance to our metaphysical concepts of the "subtle body",
the relationship of mind and matter, and the relative nature of reality.
Whatever we find out about the nature of this realm, and its relationship
to mass, applies to our own bodies and minds as well.
We are one and the same as the structures that underlie the matter and
energy of our gross structure. That structure is continuous, interconnected,
and non-local in nature. We have, enfolded within our being, an underlying
reality even more fundamental than the structure behind the interconnected
wave patterns described by quantum mechanics.
This massless counterpoint to our being has its basis in non-being. To
conceive of its nature, we must penetrate not only into the Void, but
beyond, through the looking glass into a dimension where chaos is the
norm. Whatever this world is, we are that! The elements of your body were
cooked in the crucible of some long exploded supernova.
This very ephemeral virtual ether translates itself into matter by turning
and turning on its gyres, transforming itself from no-thing into something.
We perceive its real-time effect as electricity, without really comprehending
what that energy is.
"It is well known that all mass is charged; thus everything in one
sense is electricity. To examine this concept, let us look again at the
electron with its virtual photons being emitted and absorbed, which virtual
activity creates the electric field of the electron."
According to Bearden, the electric field constitutes a steady activity
of the emission and absorption of virtual photons. The electron spin is
more of an implosion or explosion in higher dimensional space. Spin is
occurring in at least four spatial dimensions, not just three. It is more
of an implosion or explosion into and out of this three space universe
frame. We might visualize the implosive or explosive spin as similar to
vector flux.
Two like charged particles with precisely antiparallel spin run right
through each other when they meet, with no interaction at all, electrical
or otherwise. This successful experiment at Argonne National Laboratory
disproved the old idea of concrete, solid, material reality. Yet, once
again, we are that! In the middle of being is non-being.
Before we leave the descriptions of the sub-quantal electrical activity
of the body, we can examine some of the implications of bioelectromagnetism.
The most prominent researcher in this area is Robert O. Becker.
Becker is famous for his research on applying electrical fields to the
body for healing and tissue regeneration. But he has also done experiments
relating the application of electromagnetic currents to the brain and
results on consciousness. Some of the most interesting are recounted in
THE BODY ELECTRIC, co-authored with Gary Selden (1985).
"We also found we could work backward, using the [DC] currents to
produce anesthesia. A strong enough magnetic field oriented at RIGHT ANGLES
[orthogonal] to a current magnetically "clamped" it, stopping
the flow. By placing frogs and salamanders between the poles of an electromagnet
so that the back-to-front current in their heads was perpendicular to
the magnetic lines of force, we could anesthetize the animals just as
well as we could with chemicals, and EEG recordings of magnetic and chemical
anesthesia were identical. We got the same effect by passing a current
through the brain from front to back, canceling out the normal current
of waking consciousness, as in electrosleep.
Becker's further comments bear on the mind/body interface, and give a
physiological mechanism for hypnosis. It tangibly demonstrates "mind
over matter."
He recounts his physical findings from hypnotized subjects.
"In each case, I found that the frontal negative potential of the
head became less negative, often reaching ZERO, as the client attained
deep trance. The reading changed in the same direction as in anesthesia,
only not as far. Then, when the suggestion for pain control was given,
the arm potential reversed just as it had in response to procaine. Conversely,
when a control subject was asked in normal waking consciousness to concentrate
forcefully on one arm, its sensitivity to pain increased, and the hand
potential became more negative. We found we could use this difference
to determine whether a person was really hypnotized or just cooperating.

EM FIELDS, ACTION, CREATION, and TIME
Every physical change of a charged particle (from
proton to neutron to electron) constitutes a modulation imposed upon its
virtual photonic activity creating its electromagnetic field. These modulations
collect, become coherent, and breach the threshold of the virtual dimension.
It, in turn, amplifies the signal or information, passing to the frame
of the electromagnetic field. The EM field plays an integral role in coupling
the virtual state reality to observable state reality.
Action, according to physics, is the fundamental
constituent of physical reality. In metaphysics, action is the agent of
karma, producing natural consequences. Action is non observable; only
changes in action are observed, and then only partially. The photon is
the basic quantum of action, uniting energy and time.
All physical things are composed of rates of changes
in action. These action changes are totally internal to the mass itself.
Therefore, literally, the physical universe exists inside each and every
part of itself, and is a giant hologram.
An ordinary photon has a certain size that is quite fixed, and it is made
of the substance "action" which is totally nonperceivable and
nonobservable. Only changes in action are perceivable, observable, or
detectable, never fundamental action itself.
So physics already prescribes a universe made out of action, and that
universe has no length, no time, no energy, no space, no concrete existence.
Yet from it can be taken by differentiation (which is simply separation),
any length, any time, any energy. However, only a single quantum at a
time changes or is separated. Quanta do not superpose.
At its most fundamental level, the entire universe is continually being
created and then destroyed in sequence. The continual creation of a tiny
piece of time and then the destruction of the piece of time makes us experience
reality or change as if we were a pointer moving along a time line.
We cannot see time because it is continually being
destroyed by the change process, the very process of physical detection
or observation itself. This is similar to the annihilation of a photon
when it hits the retina and becomes absorbed.
Now, if we invoke another kind of change, a virtual change, such that
its size is always smaller than the actual quantum's size, then this kind
of change cannot be detected, even theoretically. The concept of a virtual
change is one such that the quantity of action that was changed was deliberately
made smaller than the size required to throw the switch of detectable
or observable change. It is an infinitesimally small perturbation.
Individually, virtual photons cannot breach the
threshold of quantum change, and so cannot be observed or detected. But
in concert, they do breach the threshold. The totally unobservable, undetectable
virtual photons being emitted and absorbed are conceived as creating the
electric field at the same time as observable physical change (ordinary
quantum change) occurs.
The electric field, of course, can cause or induce change of sufficient
magnitude to breach the quantum threshold and result in observable change.
The bottom line is this: the virtual state can be collated and collected
to sufficient magnitude to breach the quantum threshold and induce ordinary
observable physical change. The electromagnetic field already does precisely
this!
We can coherently collect the virtual state to produce matter or its anti-matter,
which after all are nothing but macroscopic assemblages of quantum changes,
and we can thus get free energy, materialization and dematerialization,
teleportation, and antigravity by means of special modifications and development
of electromagnetic circuits.
Each photon carries a small piece of time. And
the entire virtual state reality is hanging onto that small piece of time
as a modulation. That is where the probabilities are riding, in terms
of the ordinary monocular interpretation of quantum mechanics. All the
probabilities and possibilities are concretely real and occupy orthogonal
universes. Since they all share the same single time dimension, there
is a TIME BRIDGE OR TIME CHANNEL [QM wormholes] connecting the universes.
Each move or change in one of them crosstalks a tiny bit into each of
the others. Since it is the photon which carries them, then each photon
contains all possibilities and virtual states modulated upon itself. Photon
interaction thus involves the communication of these possibilities and
virtual states to the object with which the interaction occurs.
The virtual state psychotronic modulations of the mass's electric field
are now riding on the virtual photons that generate that field.
Every possibility concretely exists in that manner,
in the virtual state, timewise hanging into the time dimension of the
detected physical world's four-space frame, but spacewise hanging out
of the ordinary three space physical universe of objects. So indeed all
possible realities, even the wildest and the most farfetched exist in
the virtual state.
Since the electromagnetic field represents a collection
of this vast array of realities, then by proper selection (i.e., by coherent
tuning) of multiple stages we should be able to select a particular virtual
reality channel. And indeed so we can. Any scheme for drastically increasing
signal-to-noise ratios should be adaptable to such a collection mechanism
for the detection of bioenergy.
Theoretical physicists are used to visualizing a world which is removed
from tangible objects by two levels of abstraction. From tangible atoms
we move by one level of abstraction to invisible fields and particles.
A second level of abstraction takes us from field and particles to the
symmetry groups by which fields and particles are related.
The introduction of superstring theory has stretched
scientific minds even further. Superstring theory takes us beyond symmetry-groups
to two further levels of abstractions. The third level of abstraction
is the interpretations of symmetry-groups in terms of states in ten-dimensional
space-time (sound Qabalistic?). The fourth level is the world of the superstring
by whose dynamical behavior the states are defined.
We are inviting you also into those rarified events
beyond the observable limits of nature, at the core of the core, as far
within as we dare speculate. Scalar phenomena, while not directly visible,
can be inferred. The discerning will find that their own nature is truly
reflected there, and its name is Mystery. |
