What do cell phones and radios have to do with consciousness?
Well perhaps nothing, but I sense that there is a comparison there. Let’s begin
with the Hermetic principal as above so below and as below so above. Nikola
Tesla was an eccentric genius and among many things, he researched
electromagnetic energy. He had predicted that electricity could be transported
freely through the air. Of course, Edison won out and created an electric grid
of wires that ended up costing humanity money but that is another story and off
the point.
While Tesla never achieved the success he desired, his work
has continued with others and has ended up producing a plethora of wireless
inventions, gadgets, and uses. Another pioneer in wireless technology was
Guglielmo Marconi. He is credited with the invention of the radio a similar use
for a different type of electromagnetic energy called radio waves. Whether radio
waves or microwaves our communications will never be the same.
This brings me to my point about consciousness. Where does
human creativity come from? The ancients used to credit the muses as being the
sources for creative people such as writers, poets, musicians, and artists. I listened
to a YouTube video of Michael Jackson in court when he was sued concerning his
song “Dangerous.” I would recommend you listen to it, at least mid-way through
where he demonstrates how he wrote songs. He stated that it came into his head,
and he would begin with beat-boxing the bass part. Next would come the overall
chords of the music with the same method of beatboxing. Next would come the
melody and lyrics. He would record each part and then he would go into the
studio and show the musicians what each part would sound like.
I myself, though not the genius that many are, have creative
and new ideas just pop into my head. Much of my blog writing is inspired by
these thoughts that seem to appear out of nowhere. This leads me to believe
that our brains are in fact a type of transceiver. We receive and transmit
ideas via this sort of electromagnetic waves. The brain and brain activity is the
result of oscillating waves of electronic impulses called brain waves. Is that
what links us to universal consciousness?
Science now understands that at the basic level of reality
are fields of energy. Of course, quantum mechanics suggests that there is a
unified field. Rupert Sheldrake has theorized that there are morphic fields of
resonance. Several other biologists have done experimental studies with these
fields and have found evidence that they exist, and that various species
communicate through them. Carl Jung the Swiss psychiatrist and psychoanalyst
that pioneered psycho analysis theorized that there is a collective unconscious
that people communicate with, get ideas from and transmit ideas too. There is also
a phenomenon in science called multiples. These are cases where more than one
person, not linked by locality or in any other way came up with the same theory
or equation at roughly the same time. By the same token, roughly around 500 BCE
give or take a hundred years or so, Lao Tzu wrote the Tao Te Ching, the Greeks
were writing about the Logos, and the Buddha was developing his teaching.
As I have studied these fields, I am becoming more and more aware
of the reality of them. To me, they seem like an ocean and flowing freely
within this ocean of electronic energy are all of these various fields. I
suspect that both, the microwave and radio wave energy that is used by the
materialistic world is hovering, swimming, floating in this ocean, but also simultaneously
are the morphic fields of resonance that include human and animal
consciousness, and if I may speculate plant consciousness and that the
indigenous description of the great spirit and mother earth, the sky, the
rivers, the mountains, the rocks, humanity and all flora and fauna share this
same cosmic soup of potentiality. One could apply the prefix morpho to all of
them because morpho means taking form. This is the way in which we participate
in creating reality.
