The Body Eclectic (Part One)



Let's get together to fight this Holy Armagiddyon (One Love!)
So when the Man comes there will be no, no doom (One Song!)
Have pity on those whose chances grows t'inner
There ain't no hiding place from the Father of Creation - Bob Marley


An occasional guilty pleasure of mine is lurking on Democratic Underground's board of liberal "skeptics" of the Amazing Randi school. Some fascinating glimpses there of a kind of orphaned rationalism running scared. For instance, proudly alerting a moderator on the posting of CNN's Charlie Sheen poll results. ("I hate reading what passes for logic - It must be fun to live in their world.") My current favourite comment is this one:

I rue the day that the woo-woos discovered the term "quantum physics." It's become their catch-all phrase that they can apply to anything in order to imbue whatever idiocy they're on about with a veneer of scientific validity.

Naturally, skeptics who pride themselves on their scientific method would like to keep the "woo-woos" in Newtonian blinders, because the science has turned uncomfortably weird for those who mean to interpret the world by it. Quantum physics challenges, both in fact and by metaphor, too many assumptions of their classical method. Even 20th Century giants of mind without a stake in keeping the woo-woos down on the tinfoil farm abhored its inclination to demolish commonsense. Einstein called it, disparagingly, "spooky action at a distance", and even Schrödinger regretted ever having let his cat out of the box. ("I do not like it, and I am sorry I ever had anything to do with it.")

Niels Bohr, on the other hand, said "Anyone who is not shocked by quantum theory has not understood it." Since my McCoy-like disclosure goes something like I'm a blogger, Jim, not a theoretical physicist, I can't pretend that I understand it. That's the price of a humanities education, though I'm trying to make up for it. But science isn't the first, the only, nor even the best way to encounter the world. And while I find the implications of the physics shocking, I'm not surprised by them, since I'd already drawn the provisional conclusion that the universe is one damn weird place.

Whatever it is we do that gets labelled "conspiracy theory" needs to be interdisciplinary, because power, which is our real subject, is itself boundary-defying. Politics, we know, is a category of insufficent weight to account for the rulers of this world. "Deep Politics" is better, though while the depth may be right, the breadth is too narrow. Wherever there are means to power there will be attempts made by the already powerful to restrict access, reclassify knowledge and extend their own authority by secrecy and disinformation. And there are means to power everywhere, even in what was until recently, and is still popularly, regarded as the interstellar void. Because they are all aspects of the same power.

To my understanding, this is the significance of Zero Point: the subatomic is not best imagined as discrete, bouncing billiard balls, but as an ocean of quantum energy in perpetual flux. Einstein's "spooky action" doesn't actually happen at a true distance, but it's no less spooky, since at the quantum level Everything is Connected. (As Becker and Selden wrote 20 years ago in The Body Electric, "Every time you use your toaster, the fields around it perturb charged particles in the farthest galaxies ever so slightly.")

If the quantum flux could be tapped it would be a source of unimaginable power, able to bend space-time to the speed of thought and defy gravity, which Soviet physicist Andrei Sakharov first suggested was not a force in its own right but rather a residual effect of zero point fluctuations caused by the presence of matter, or rather greater densities of charge. As we've seen, the ever-spooky Hal Puthoff, formerly of the NSA and naval intelligence, moved from SRI's remote viewing program into to zero point research. Puthoff claims "the evidence is pretty solid" that something is already happening, beyond theory, in the black budget world. (Free and virtually limitless energy might be alright for some, think the some with a means to power. As I wrote in January, "If the G-Engines are coming, they've probably already arrived. And they're not meant for the likes of us.")

But the implications of zero point extend further than its energy applications, no matter how revolutionary, to consciousness itself: back to Puthoff's remote viewing research and beyond.

Despite statistical results which far exceeded chance, the CIA was determined to stamp "failure" upon remote viewing, and even military occultist Michael Aquino felt compelled to call it an"eyeball roller". It's often better, for those who guard power's secrets, to be popularized as miserable failures. And the secret of remote viewing, and it's power, is not the projection of sight, but the connectedness of the viewer, at the level of quanta and code, to everything else in the universe.

Lynne McTaggart writes in The Field that Puthoff, considering how remote viewing might be possible, saw that it "argued strongly [for] a quantum, nonlocal effect":

With practice, people could enlarge their brain's receiving mechanisms to gain access to information stored in the Zero Point Field. This giant cryptogram, continually encoded with every atom in the universe, held all the information of the world - every sight and sound and smell. When remote viewers were "seeing" a particular scene, their minds weren't actually somehow transported to the scene. What they were seeing was the information that [had been] encoded in quantum fluctuation.... In a sense, the field allowed us to hold the whole universe inside us. Those good at remote viewing weren't seeing anything invisible to all the rest of us. All they were doing was dampening down the other distractions.

Hold the universe inside us. Imagine what would happen if the woo-woos ever found out about that. Imagine if those with the will to power already have.

Hal is indeed mysterious but not in a spooky way (despite the naval intel / scientology background). I've had the pleasure of meeting with Hal a number of times - he also serves on the advisory board of a consciousness research group with which I am affiliated.

When I saw a rare presentation by Puthoff back in 04, he emphatically denied that the Oil/Energy Elite were suppressing these new technologies. To the contrary, he says that when he approached them with his ZPE research that they have expressed considerable interest. No doubt they would since such tech will be there undoing.

At the conclusion of the lecture, Hal gave his insights into the UFO phenomena ... "off the record."

"Puthoff claims "the evidence is pretty solid" that something is already happening, beyond theory, in the black budget world. (Free and virtually limitless energy might be alright for some, think the some with a means to power."

Nick Cook writes, and I quote:

Since the publication of the U.K. edition of The Hunt for Zero Point, one other significant postscript to the story is worth mentioning--in time, the word "momentous" may even be appropriate.

On March 26, 2002, a US patent was granted for device called the "motionless magnetics generator," or MEG, that its supporters say will be the world's first commercially available free-energy home-generator. The MEG has been developed by a team of inventors led by long-time zero energy pioneer and proponent Dr. Thomas E. Bearden, a retired U.S. Army lieutenant colonel and former nuclear engineer [and extensive writer on both physics and warnings of the ongoing terrorist uses of scalar energy HAARP technology run by the U.S. Navy in Gakona, Alaska--and by others worldwide].

The MEG is designed to provide an indefinite output of 2.5 kW--enough to run a room or two in your house--by tapping into the infinite energy of the quantum sea.

Link three or four MEGs together, proponents claim, and you get enough output to run an entire house. The event is significant, at least, because the US patent office traditionally shuns so-called "free-energy" devices; de facto, it has accepted there must be something to this one.

As I write this, scant weeks after the patent's acceptance, it remains to be seen whether claims for the MEG will indeed transcend into commercially available hardware. But maybe, just maybe--as I sit here recalling Hal Puthoff's exhortation--March 26, 2002 [the date of the MEG patent] will be the date I put in my diary as the day the world changed--forever."

His articles have also appeared in newspapers worldwide.")

"What they were seeing was the information that [had been] encoded in quantum fluctuation...."


sounds like the Akashic Record to me:

“The one who has acquired the ability to perceive in the spiritual world comes to know past events in their eternal character. They do not stand before him like the dead testimony of history, but appear in full life. In a certain sense, what has happened takes place before him. Those initiated into the reading of such a living script can look back into a much more remote past than is represented by external history; and—on the basis of direct spiritual perception—they can also describe much more dependably the things of which history tells. In order to avoid possible misunderstanding, it should be said that spiritual perception is not infallible. This perception also can err, can see in an inexact, oblique, wrong manner. No man is free from error in this field, no matter how high he stands. Therefore one should not object when communications emanating from such spiritual sources do not always entirely correspond. But the dependability of observation is much greater here than in the external world of the senses. What various initiates can relate about history and prehistory will be in essential agreement. Such a history and prehistory does in fact exist in all mystery schools. Here for millennia the agreement has been so complete that the conformity existing among external historians of even a single century cannot be compared with it. The initiates describe essentially the same things at all times and in all places.” "Cosmic Memory"

The ancient civilisations knew all of this IMO.

Time to wipe out the Gnostic records by organised religion. Kinda " My will be done"

Meanwhile, those who hold the reins today continue to exercise such power, whilst letting the sheeple self regulate themselves ( with occasional assistance ) by pouring scorn over those in their midst who understand how this game is truly played.

I cant imagine any of these people are reading, but if you are, Woo Woo this.

We are all related, and we are all part of the same.

The universe is little more than a huge interlinking hologram.

We are all God for we are all part of this multiverse, which itself is little more than the creators mind.

Someone else here, I'm quite glad to say, beat me to equating "Akashic Record" information claims of some, with the exact same principles as quantum physics.

In other words, nothing really odd about the Akashic claims of those who 'tap' it either, they are just particularly in tune with the quantum universe's vibrations and somehow their DNA innately is better at resonating and transforming that quantum "everything is connected" information into thoughts, feelings, and images from elsewhere that they can translate first to themselves, and then to other human beings.

This should definitely be linked to a previous post on the intersections of DNA and quantum physics. It reminds me of this previous astounding one and its related comments where "the quantum physics of DNA" was being researched by the U.S.'s typical "high wierdness" gnostic secret society filled military. They seem very serious in both testing as well as attempting to enhance DNA's "quantum receiver" aspects, particularly with monoatomic gold implants into DNA...

DNA seems to be much more than hereditary, empirically speaking: it has other parts it plays in the body like being an ultimate "quantum sense" communications medium infrastructure tied simultaneously into the immune system (biophoton based healing).

The Gospel According to St. Luke, Chapter 17

17:20 And when he was demanded of the Pharisees, when the kingdom of God should come, he answered them and said, The kingdom of God cometh not with observation:

17:21 Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you.

17:22 And he said unto the disciples, The days will come, when ye shall desire to see one of the days of the Son of man, and ye shall not see [it].

17:23 And they shall say to you, See here; or, see there: go not after [them], nor follow [them].

17:24 For as the lightning, that lighteneth out of the one [part] under heaven, shineth unto the other [part] under heaven; so shall also the Son of man be in his day.

17:25 But first must he suffer many things, and be rejected of this generation.

Which made me think of this post of yours about the Cash Landrum incident.

http://rigorousintuition.blogspot.com/2006/02/gods-must-be-crazy.html

Which also made me think of this, from Project Beta by Greg Bishop,

"When Cash & the Landrums tried to ask the Air Force about the incident, they were told to fill out the forms & find a lawyer to petition the government for compensation. Early in the legal battle, the Air Force quietly offered to pay medical expenses if Cash & the Landrums agreed to sign a non-disclosure form promising not to discuss the case anymore. Their lawyer, Citizens Against UFO Secrecy president Peter Gersten, advised them against this, & tried to fight the Air Force to disclose the existence of the craft. when it became clear that the case was going nowhere, Cash & Landrum decided to accept the original deal, but the Air Force reply was a cold & confusing "What deal?""

Why would they offer compensation if it wasn't their craft?

This also from Project Beta:

"A scientific briefing of sorts from the British "Gravity Research Group" entitled "Electrogravitics Systems," obtained by Bill Moore from the technical library at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base in 1986, describes the state of the art in anti-gravity research in 1956.
A portion of this document is worth quoting at length:

At least it is known, proof positive, that motion, using surprisingly low k, is possible. The fantastic control that again is feasible, has not yet been demonstrated, but there is no reason to suppose the arithmetic is faulty, especially as it has already led to a quite brisk example of actual propulsion. That first movement was indeed an historic occasion, reminiscent of the momentous day at Chicago when the first pile went critical, and the phenomenon was scarcely less weird. It is difficult to imagine just where a well-organised examination into long term gravitics prospects would end. Though a circular platform is electrostatically convenient, it does not necessarily follow that the requirements of control by differential changes would be the same. Perhaps the strangest part of this whole chapter is how the public managed to foresee the concept though not of course the theoretical principles that gave rise to it, before physical tests confirmed that the mathematics was right. It is interesting also that there is no point of contact between the conventional science of aviation and the New: it is a radical offshoot with no common principles. Aerodynamics, structures, heat engines, flapping controls, and all the rest of aviation is part of what might be called the Wright Brothers era - even the Mach 2.5 thermal barrier piercers are still Wright Brothers concepts, in the sense that they fly and they stall, and they run out of fuel after a short while, and they defy the earth's pull for a short while. Thus this century will be divided into two parts - almost to the day. The first half belonged to the Wright Brothers who foresaw nearly all the basic issues in which gravity was the bitter foe. In part of the second half gravity will be the great provider. Electrical energy, rather irrelevant for propulsion in the first half becomes a kind of catalyst to motion in the second half of the century."

It's too bad that us woo-woos know not just the term quantum physics, but also the term holographic universe. That one must drive the skeptic Newtonian squareheads right up a tree.

Continued from that DU post:

I'm fairly certain that a person silly enough to refer to scientists as "Fundamentalists" knows about as much as I do - which is roughly somewhere between Jack and Shit.

Since the mood here seems slightly more absurd and satirical than usual, thought you might appreciate the following... summary of a film screening held on March 18, 2006 in San Francisco:

“Secret Science and Bizarre Beliefs”: Films from the Moody Institute of Science.

A screening of 1950s classroom films from the fringes of far out religious science featuring; “Blind as a Bat”, “The Electric Eel”, “Modern Man in a Primitive World”, “The Mystery of Science”, “Facts of Faith”, “Snowflakes” and more. Plus! Clips from the 50s TV kinescope “Science in Action” and the quack science silent short “Ultraviolet Healing”

“Secret Science and Bizarre Beliefs” is a mind-boggling collection of 1950s crackpot science films brought to you by the world’s strangest bible science film producers, The Moody Institute of Science. Evangelist Erwin “The Million Volt Man” Moon stars in many of these eye-popping classroom science
films as he inhales helium, runs electricity through his body, makes metal float in space, experiments with electric eels and preaches god’s creationist “intelligent design”ideology.

Moon got his start In 1938 when he began traveling as a full-time as
evangelist demonstrating his “Sermons From Science” under the auspices of The Moody Bible Institute. The next year, with the help of businessmen from San Francisco, a SFS pavilion was built at the 1939 San Francisco World's Fair. For nine months, Moon presented up to eight demonstrations each day, seven days a week. The crowds were so large that demonstrations began hours prior
to the scheduled time because early arrivals had filled the auditorium while others waited outside. With more than two tons of equipment, most of it homemade, Moon performed such wonders as frying an egg on a cold stove, lighting a bulb on his bare fingers, and allowing one million volts of electricity to smash through his body. Following the presentation he asked,"Can you believe these miracles are the result of chance or accident? Or are they part of a divine pattern?"

In 1945 The Moody Institute of Science was founded with a two-pronged evangelistic approach incorporating films and live demonstrations. Operating on a shoestring budget, The Moody Institute of Science staff would remodel war surplus material and invent and build the equipment to perform live demonstrations and produce films. More than 6 million people have seen their live demonstrations since 1949 at
the 1939 San Francisco World's Fair, the 1964-65 New York World's Fair, the 1967 Montreal World's Fair and many more fairs and expositions. Their classroom science films were marketed to schools and churches across the United States and their biblical subtext hit the viewer over the head with the proverbial hammer of faith, far predating today’s “debate” over “intelligent design”.

Tonight’s program features a sample of some of the quirkiest gems from the Oddball Moody Science collection. Some program highlights include:

“Primitive Man in a Modern World”(1959, Color) Is a bizarre and baffling (i.e. “What the f*ck were they thinking when they made this?”) condescending examination of “primitive” peoples in South America from the ancient Mayans to the coca chewing contemporary Indians of Peru.

“Blind as a Bat” (1956, Color), The Moody Science bat truck goes on location to study the secrets of bat navigation. Their in-house mammal abuse experiments show us the science of bat radar.

“Mystery of Time” (1957, color) Watch Erwin Moon demonstrate the theory of relativity-in 15 minutes!

“The Electric Eel” (1954, color) Irwin Moon shows us the electric eel and demonstrates its amazing abilities to shock fish for food and to use "radar" to find them. Don’t miss the scene where he illuminates a florescent light tube using his eel!

“Facts of Faith”(1956, Color) Mind-blowing science experiments showcase Moon running thousands of volts of god’s creation though his entire body. A stunner!

“Snow”(1956, Color) “Snow, given to us by the hand of god” Brilliant Kodachrome snowflake crystals. God made these!

Plus! Rare clips from the 1950s B+W kinescope of “Science in Action” shot at the California Academy of Sciences including the Animal of the Week! Also! rare silent clip of the quack science “Ultraviolet Healing” film.

One of the several million anonymous posters said: I read once [...] about electrons all being connected, every electron in the cosmos is connected to every other electron.

You're probably thinking of an unusual interpretation of the Feynman-Wheeler "absorber" hypothesis. In the Feynman-Wheeler view of the universe, if two electric charges interact, they will produce not only the ordinary, measurable field effects which propagate forward in time, but also a 'reflected' field which propagates backward in time.

http://www.npl.washington.edu/npl/int_rep/dtime/node1.html has a non-mathematical explanation.

http://farside.ph.utexas.edu/teaching/em/lectures/node51.html has a more rigourous explanation.

Caveat: "Retarded" as used by F/W means "effect moves forward in time", and "advanced" means "effect moves backwards in time". These trip up a lot of students.

As noted, this makes a pleasingly neat fit with Maxwell's equations, but runs into serious difficulties related to causality* when one tries to simultaneously describe real-world electromagnetism and quantum effects. One way around this is to view the backwards-propagating field as keeping the same spin and mass, but reversing its electric charge. The electron travelling backwards in time becomes a positron.

Feynman positted a radical interpretation of this in the (IIRC) mid-1970s in which he supposed that the universe had only one electron, bouncing forward and backward between the beginning and end of the universe. I don't think anyone to this day is entirely sure whether he was actually serious (he often wasn't) but the concept, while a pleasing one, and the gist for a number of good hard-SF tales, runs into some real-world difficulties related to presumed conditions at the beginning and possible end of the universe. I'll give the caveat that I'm by no means a mathematical physicist, but I think my understanding is correct.

All practical considerations aside, these are interesting topics to ponder, as they address directly the nature of time and causality.


*Another possibility, of course, is that causality is an illusion.

Jeff raises one crucial issue -- but I see an even deeper issue behind that.

The first issue is one of epistomology -- what can we know and how do we know it? When I was growing up, Western culture was still clinging to the remains of 17th century empiricism -- the idea that a newborn baby is a blank slate and all we can know is what we ourselves have experienced or learned.

However, that was already changing. By the time I studied linguistics in college in the 60's, the hot new idea was that perhaps certain kinds of knowledge (like the rules of grammar) might be hard-wired into the brain.

By the end of the 60's, I was starting to run into the further suggestion that the human mind was actually able to tap into something outside itself. That the quantum field, or the Akashic Records, or the "Universal Tablet" of the Rumi quote on Jeff's front page is a great repository of all the information in the universe, which we can access to the extent of our understanding and our necessity.

However, being the good modern Westerners that we are, we still tend to see this repository as a passive substance, like a computer hard drive, that we can draw upon and even manipulate at will.

But what if it isn't? What if it has a will and purpose of its own?

At this point, I'm going to quote a few paragraphs from Martin Bernal's "Black Athena," which I've been re-reading lately. They have to do with a crucial philosophical turning in the development of modern science -- the choice of "passive" matter over "active" matter -- and its political implications, and they raise a number of interesting issues:

By the 1680s a new, equally radical intellectual force had emerged in England from the Hermetic and Rosicrucian traditions. The new movement argued for a twofold philosophy, for transcendence by the elite of the religious squabbles of the masses. The masses should be given toleration to practise their particular superstition, but political and intellectual power should be firmly in the hands of the enlightened few.

This general attitude was perfectly compatible with 18th-century English society. The Radical Enlightenment, however, contained thinkers like John Toland, who not only drew from the Rosicrucian and Masonic traditions the notion of a
prisca theologia, but also read Bruno. Toland had absorbed many of Bruno's cosmological Hermetic and Egyptian ideas of animate matter and a world spirit, ideas which lead to pantheism or even atheism. Long before this Newton himself had hesitated, in private, on the question of the activity or passivity of matter, but Newtonianism was not merely scientific. It had a consequent political and theological doctrine which depended on the passivity of matter, with motion coming only from outside. Otherwise, theologically, the universe would need no crdeator or 'Grand Architect', let alone a 'clock-minder'; while politically, England would need no king -- Toland was fully aware of the republican implications of his ideas.

John Toland was a central figure in the establishment ofc the legends, rituals and theology of speculative Masonry, much of which was standardized and canonized by the fusion of various Masonic and Rosicrucian groups in 1717. By that time, however, the movement had been taken over by respectable Newtonians. Even bold figures like Newton's deputy and successor at Cambridge, William Whiston, who unlike his mentor openly proclaimed his Arianism -- disbelief in the divinity of Christ -- 'despised and actively combated' Toland and his ideas.


These paragraphs are not as clear as I'd like -- largely because they contain too many ideas tangled up in a small space. But the points I take from them are these:

1) As radical new scientific and philosophical ideas advanced in the 17th century, the elite in general tended to argue that they could handle them, but that the masses should be kept ignorant and encouraged to adhere to their traditional superstitions. (This is, quite explicitly, still the position of the Straussians, and may explain a lot about the power of fundamentalism in this country today.)

2) Beyond that general elitism, there was an ongoing dispute between the Newtonian position of passive matter -- which justified both belief in a God to keep things running and, by analogy, in a powerful monarch -- and Toland's position of active matter, which leads to far more pantheistic, democratic, and open source concepts of the universe and of society.

3) The debate between active and passive matter may have been confined to the elite at the time. It's not clear from the quote whether Toland thought the masses could be trusted with his ideas or not. But either way, the concept of active matter must ultimately be subversive of all forms of superimposed power and external control.

4) This dispute played a central role in the establishment of modern Freemasonry in the early 1700's, with the Newtonians ultimately coming out on top but with traces of more radical ideas remaining around the edges.

Now, if you're still with me, what I make of all this is that the occult elite with which this board is so often concerned are the heirs of the winners in that long-ago contention. They endorse ideas out of the "Hermetic and Rosicrucian traditions" -- though they would never admit that to the superstitious masses. But their interpretation of those ideas is one in which the universe, higher reality, and their fellow humans are all no more than passive matter, for them to use, manipulate, and exploit as they choose.

In contrast, if matter really is active and engaged in seeking its own destiny, then the occult elite is not merely philosophically mistaken but is actively evil -- in that they attempt to treat the 'divine' as so many concrete blocks and plaster it into structures of their own devising. In the long run, this can only come back to bite them on the ass.

But it still leaves the rest of us with one overriding question: If matter is active, if the universe has a soul and a direction, then what is to be our relationship to it? How do we conceive of it? What do we see reflected when we look out into the cosmic mirror? And (most important) what do we make of the mystery of our own nature?

True. It should be noted that, contrary to the teachings of the Hermetic/Alchemical/Rosicrucian Philosophers, Straussians view the world as mechanical and dead.

It requires the sophistry of the "Straussian reading" to wring their nihilistic worldview from the writings of the "Wise Sons."

This is similar to the difference between "Speculative Masonry" and "Illuminism." Any philosophy that deals with the Spirit or Divine will admit multiple readings, since the Spirit cannot be adequately described by language.

Therefore, we can always expect the existence of a "dark" philosophical school that, while being consistent with the letter of the Wise Philosophers' writings, contradicts them in intent and plain meaning.

Since the "dark reading" can be so consistently predicted, both its existence and, in general, its content (but please judge for oneself), it is correctly characterized as being "mechanical" and dead, the lifeless shadow cast by the light.

Such a tradition then as theirs may wear the style of the noble Verulam and is most justly called a Tradition of the Lamp. But I observe that in their delivery of mysteries they have, as in all things else, imitated Nature, who dispenses not her light without her shadows.

These discussions tend to bother me by the implied or explicit human centric nature. We have not been on the planet long and are quite possibly going to leave it sooner than we might wish and yet what other position is there to take? Do we need to see all forces known and unknown as sap bearing trees ready for us to tap at will. Knowing we are different is one thing but believing we are special is a problem on too many levels.
I have read somewhere that the species we Westerners in particular, resemble the most, is a virus. We colonize,consume, destroy and then move on, although that seems a wee bit blunt to my mind.

"As noted, this makes a pleasingly neat fit with Maxwell's equations, but runs into serious difficulties related to causality* when one tries to simultaneously describe real-world electromagnetism and quantum effects."

This may be getting blurred in my head. If I come across exactly what I was reading I'll post back.

On Maxwell, I think it is Tom Bearden who writes that there is something in Maxwell's equations that electrical engineers leave out of his equations because its unrequired for building electrical equipment. However, bringing that back in, you get the basic physical theoretical premises for integrating gravity as a (manipulatiable) variable, and get the electrogravitics and scalar technological groundwork that has been elaborated for (who can say...though...) the past 70 years since the 1930s. It may be the same person or someone else that caused an epiphany of late:

I forget where I read this, though "XXXX" said if you add more dimensions to Einstein's theories of relativity you can integrate gravity as variable. So, what goes one way should be able to go another.

In other words, if people are manufacturing electrogravitics technology (electricity producing 'gravity neutralizing fields'), it should be possible to invert that with other technology and have free energy by turning gravity into electricity, instead of (as they are now) turning electricity into (anti-)gravity.

I want one of those MEG machines described above. Anything that taps the quantum zero point field, can do many marvellous things with a bit of tweaking, I'm sure, if you know what you are doing.

If it's set up one way to generate electricity, it should with tweaking be capable of being electrogravics tech, and/or it may even take off by itself and fly up forever and ever like some kind of permanent Hutchinson machine...

I wonder if Hutchinson has ever had a psychic sit in his Hutchinson effect and attempt to remote view? Are these fields going to enhance or demote such capacities?

This sounds "remotely" (no pun intended) like the psychic chair apparatus talked about at the black ops of Montauk, with psychic induced and electronics enhanced wormholes that if you believe it, allow time travel as well as instantaneous space access. After all, if everything is connected, the other time line or another bit of space is just right there in front of you if you can pull the sinews of the zero point field apart enough and go into it. And presumably keep whole instead of being torn apart alive by the experience.

On the electronic enhancement motif of such psychic capacities, know that you can go to www.bielek.com and be supremely enlightened and extremely scared at the same moment that this likely happened on a regular basis 40 years ago.

In order to understand the significance and role the quantum universe plays in our reality we must first learn to differentiate that reality from our simple and quite physical perceptions of it and begin to realize that they are simply not the same thing...hmmm?

Now I typed in the url for this website, clicked my mouse on "go", and was seemingly carried through the wires in an electronic blink to reach this destination in cyberspace. To be "here", if you will, and write this for any of you who care to read it.

I keyed in these very words that you seem to be reading and have seen them myself added to this growing list of comments and will likewise return to this "site" and see them again as well as read what any of you have had to add to them in the meantime.

Now the reality I seem to see and this particular perception of it, (which is common enough for me to use for this example), certainly seems to support or at least doesn't conflict with it and just as importantly with what I seem to be doing with it.

But this is only based on what I directly sense of it or from it rather than what it actually is or what I do happen know about it.

It's merely a direct and familiar enough way to describe the "appearance" of what seems to be happening and simply using it because it just seems so very easy, ordinary, and somewhat self-explanitory...hmmm?

Of course the reality is nothing of the sort. What is really happening both in plain sight and beyond makes that perception a very false and utterly misleading one, however convenient, comforting, or even practical it may be.

This screen, of course, is only my own and so too is this particular version of this site I am both seeing and interacting with at the moment.

In fact there are as many versions of it as there are participants at any given time, yet none ever see any visible evidence to make them suspect, let alone believe, that it is not one and the same thing and presumably in the same place, at least in cyberspace, for all of us.

Yet if forced to consider what is really happening we just might begin to see how utterly impossible and misleading that simple perception is.

It is only an assumption about a reality that is based solely on an appearance of it that quite unintentionally and inadvertently also supports it. What's more it also allows that simple enough explanation to work quite well. Well enough, in fact, for many to simply accept or believe it at face value and with no real need to ever question it.

In other words it works well enough for what they both think and picture this cyber reality to be for them and use it accordingly.

Now the true nature of the "underlying system" that actually supports this "appearance" is really a far more complicated and confusing affair to envision, let alone understand.

If we stop to consider the multiplicity of unseen monitors, phone wires, satellite relays, and servers all around the planet that actually create whatever this screen shows us as being "here" at any given moment that suddenly begins to be apparent.

From that vast network of everchanging components going on and off-line and the vertitable chaos of equally everchanging switches and connections that behave in accord with a programming language and a rationale all of their own, this screen faithfully emerges with all the familiarity and relative ease of use that we know and have come to expect from it...hmmm? I mean we are "here" after all, aren't we?

We can even seemingly control what we create and experience "here" together but where is this "here" exactly?

If each one of us has his or her own very private versions of it and no real inkling of the constantly changing and unseen ways in which they are really connected and interacting with one another what can we really say about it or what we seem to be doing with it?

What is it we think we are directly doing, creating, and experiencing together "here" when in fact it's really taking place in each of our own very private versions of "here" simultaneously?

Suddenly the simple and quite direct understanding we thought we had and allowed us to do what we're doing isn't quite so simple anymore. Neither is what we're doing either but we still seem to be able to do whatever that is...hmmm? LOL

Now what we know and sense about our everyday reality isn't so very different from what I've just tried to explain about this cyber one or how it comes to be.

In fact we have no more proof for our familiar, comfortable and seemingly practical picture of it than we did at the outset for this one.

We do not have to really know or even understand how it works to use it the way we do or even be quite happy doing that.

What we miss by such a simplistic view and interpretation, however, is the vast potential that is not only latent within that unseen system that underwrites everything we each experience but also in ourselves in how we actually participate and interact with it without being aware of it.

As a long time student of current events and parapolitics, I find it troubling that rabble-rousers never do more than irritate our cultural beast. Our leverage to effect events will remain weak as long as we submit to the mental conditioning systems that have defined human society since the Consul of Nicea.

When at the Consul of Nicea, Jesus was declared to be God, the church became a means to enforce authority and inhibit 'enthusiasm', and therefore an agent of Ahriman. Descartes, with his clever speculations, further codified this dualistic pretence, separating the spiritual and the physical, - thereby obscuring again the value of individual creative expressions of consciousness. G-d is far off, “trust us say the authority figures, to explain to you how reality should be”.

As we learn to better examine our cultural conditioning systems we may notice proposals for improvement.Our collective criteria for understanding do more to shape psychical expressions than any news tidbit or informed opinion. The ‘harsh critics’ out there are to be reminded that a consequent cannot prove the antecedent and therefore one expression of initial principles cannot be said to be inherently more valid than another. It is in this spirit that the following ‘rules’ for psychical conditioning are presented, a new set of Criteria for Understanding.

1. The spiritual and material is fundamentally the same.

2. Consciousness precedes Being.

3. Taking or presenting relative truth as being Absolute truth produces pathology.

4. Any particle is the agglutination of sub-particles that exhibit the proper combination of frequency, velocity, vector, and a cyclical balance between electro-magnetic attraction and static repulsion characteristics.

Jeff: Thank you thank you thank you for finally treating zero point (it has so many names, radiant energy, ZPE, whatever) straight-ahead. Great tie in to consciousness. Bearden writes that each of us has a type of Tesla scalar device which is the two hemispheres of our brain, somewhat consonant with direction of the comments here.

Here are some tidbits I would offer:
1) I've not built the MEG (but if you want one you have to build it yourself-- it will never see production)... but I have built over 20 Bedini versions and each was extraordinary in their own way. Read between the lines. If this English major can do it so can you (took me about two years to learn the electronics, etc. needed to get it right--small price to pay and I had hella fun). I'm pretty sure at this point that there are more than 20 paths to FE, depending on which fields you mix & match. The They keep things tight by compartmentalizing science so nobody catches on. So just pick one avenue that seems to suit your bent, and get cracking. Note: Extremely few that actually get to so-called over-unity (misnomer) will admit it if they have any sense bec. they don't want to get killed/suppressed in myriad other effective ways. However the true distributed Power (in all senses of the word) revolution would be a host of folks all building their own, a la Gandhi's spinning wheel. Feed the grid, what the hell, you've got more than you need anyway. Turn things upside down. Interested? See research by Schauberger, Lindemann, the Correa's, Bearden, Bedini, EV Grey, Watson, DePalma, Tewari, Kawai, etc. Don't f**k around, it's real and it works, and I've never had this much fun. And yes, it's even better when listening to Miles, but the aether also makes its own song, and that's a beautiful thing to listen to as it rings through the device, late at night.

2) Offered FWIWI: Have a close friend at SRI, and when I tried to check in with him, skeptically (sorry), about the psychic research stuff (as in "hey man, those internet stories are all bullshit, right?") he said (paraphrasing) "...no, actually, it's all true. The military paid us for many years, and we proved that a) it works b) its unreliable c) one consistent variable (by no means only) they could identify about reliability is that it works or doesn't depending on the attitudes of the persons in the room about whether it will work or won't work. The presence of a skeptic alone was enough to make it not work. The military at that point said thans very much, and they quit funding the research. That's straight from the source folks, take it or leave it, I care not.

It looks like someone read "Father Ernetti's Chronovisor", or at least understands the thought current, or whatever was behind it. Tell me what do you think of the "spooky" world of ITC research? Reading Ernst Senkowski's work drives some hard points home about modern information theory and the forces "pushing" things around. I often wonder whose payroll he's on, because he seems to get stuck in the trap of doing everything he can to support the almost invisible religious movement behind the ITC/EVP community.

People need to stop throwing out what's in the margins; check names, pseudonyms and "group" names within the community -- including those names of "discarnate" entities other than the ever popular "the nine" and by reverse extension "the eight", and on and on. Who is "Swejen Salter"? Who is Maggy Harsch-Fischbach? Translate, cut-up, decrypt and step back. I think some people will start to see some of the picture. Why is Chris Carter sitting on the option to make a feature film based on Jule Eisenbud's seminal "The World of Ted Serios"? Yes, Chris; The truth is "out there", alright.

introduction to the concept of need: intended for commonality

Seeing you lends new meaning to my life.  Attempting to understand you (meet you somewhere) leaves me natural and bathed in the gentle rain of your peaceful stimulation. The risk of allowing myself to know and care and lose (or maintain at all cost, for that matter) is terrifying. Respect's mirror that would be mine, embraced toward my heart that I should know and revel at the completion of desire's dynamic, when brought away the bark trunk and limb's twig's leaves removed. Inspiration punched down with hope to rise again, Will purpose find a way? timid valor, pubesence's brave make-up, from the balanced magnet root left treeless.     come to me ...speak ..say hello...

words that occur to me

Just a heads-up

Most of the links at the 'paperclip' link are dead. The one that still works (for me) was interesting: background on Less than Lethal weapons, etc.

In reading it and looking at the sources, I got to wondering: how much of what we look at as a 'conspiracy theory' focused group is the result of retired/fired govt. insiders coming forward with tell-all info.? That and FOIAs seem to be the life-blood of our studies. The books cited often are just another step removed from these sources?

Are there some kinds of lines of inquiry/investigation that are more verifiable?

What else is there beside FOIA and ex-officials' tell-all books/interviews? What other ways can we use to know about what our government/various 'secret' groups is/are doing?

this also calls to mind the dharmadhatu, or basic space of phenomenon, and the three kayas of the tantric traditions.

"Time is the fence around our pasture" Victor Carson

We did not build the fence.

Imagine driving your automobile in reverse without looking out the windows. You can only use your rear view mirror. This is our study of history.

Now, imagine driving the same automobile on a six lane highway, in the middle lane for your direction. You are moving forward very slowly, again only using the rearview mirror to judge your lane position. This is our conscious movement through time.

I must admit I spend quite a bit of time on yahoo answers in the "paranormal phenomena" section only to find these psuedoskeptics hard at work with their propaganda. When I pointed out folks like Fritz-Popp who have scientifically debunked them they had a fit. I've come to the conclusion that they are not sane. Their minds are infected. In a way they taught me to exercise my own skepticism even more vigorously and to remember to always maintain an elastic mind. ~
