Forever Never Dies

Totality is beyond death. People die and pass away because they are only an aspect of totality. Being a partiality of the whole allows for the transmutation of form into another like water swirling within a teapot, filling the space differently from moment to moment. To enter into totality is to move beyond death and the shifting of form, the wave melding into oneness with the ocean.

Focusing the lens of existence from the partial to the total allows a person to interact with the world from that vantage point, and affect change in harmony with such a perspective. It is a shift from the separation of the individual as solidified ego towards recognition of ego as only an aspect of our individual connection to something more. To observe death as being different from life is directly related to this incompleteness, as death would only be experienced and recognized as another aspect of change when a person reconnects to the impermanence of causal reality.

Recognize that in each moment you are never the same as you were the moment before. When you look at a picture of yourself as a child, what connects the you of now to the you of the past? Physically, you and the person in the picture are in many ways entirely different. Recognize that what connects you is not the physical form, but the string of experiences transmitting change from moment to moment. Realize that these moments extend beyond you, and only pass through you like ripples in a pond.

This is what connects all things in all moments, past, present, and future. For even the smallest of actions may cascade along the winds of change to shape the nature of experience in the present. The squirrel does not prepare for winter until the leaves change to hues of gold and fire as the days grow shorter with the shifting sun. Notice this process of life with each breath you take, the nuance of form and movement as it creates sensations inside and outside the body, shifting physical and mental states.

The breath is a direct connection of experiential truth which allows a person to recognize and experience the totality, relaxing into the embrace of universal truth. Let go of the preconditions and presuppositions, and open outward from within your center, connecting and bringing a diffused awareness upon the nature of impermanence. Shed the attachment to ego, while still recognizing and accepting its existence, allow fear to dissolve by embracing it with sympathetic joy, and reconnect to the totality of universal truth.

Speaking to Consciousness

Where does consciousness come from? It almost seems to pop into physical existence for each individual at the point of conception. Do things really exist outside of our perception of their existence? Interactions are able to be observed even if we only see the start and end points of the interaction, and not its actual occurrence. Would this mean there is an objective reality outside of consciousness in which things occur whether we exist or not? Or is the “objective reality” sustained as a result of a collective connection, which utilizes each conscious perspective as a node within a network? So even if one node is removed, the objective reality is still maintained by the other nodes. If all the nodes are removed, does the objective reality cease to be? Perhaps there are other types of consciousness serving as nodes to also sustain the objective reality. Would this reflect itself in the observable, historical record that humans have been able to discern via empirical/theoretical evidence in the various fields of science and inquiry? Then what is consciousness? Is it possible that everything is consciousness, even the objective reality? That all things, even the elements informing the physical qualities of the universe, are conscious on some level, thus serving as a node? If everything is consciousness, is an individual able to communicate and have a dialogue with all components of the physical universe? If so, it may be possible to reassemble the components of the universe as a reflection of this interaction of consciousness. So then what is energy? Is it mutually exclusive, wholly interchangeable, or some measure inbetween with consciousness? If all components are an aspect of consciousness, I would suspect that energy is too. So if consciousness is energy, and energy is consciousness, then consciousness is no longer bound by space-time. And if consciousness is no longer bound by space-time, then it is neither bound by the physical form. And if the physical form is also made of energy, being formed by the components making up the physical universe, then it can also be directed and shaped through consciousness communication. The degree of such direction and shaping would only be limited by the interference distorting or circumventing the channel of communication and dialogue. By clearing up those obstructions, in the processing of communication between forms of consciousness, it would seem imaginable for alterations in the formation of both the physical body and physical reality to be more directly translatable and observable in positive correlation.

A Possible Mechanism for Karma and Reincarnation (a multi-part post 3 of 3)

Part 3: Connecting Theory with Details

It is said that at the time of death, the human brain is still active for several minutes after all bodily function has stopped. One study, published in PNAS, found evidence following cardiac arrest (albeit in rats) that the “mammalian brain can, albeit paradoxically, generate neural correlates of heightened conscious processing near death” which “exceeded levels found during the conscious waking state”. The study found a high level of internal information processing occurring within the brain during clinical death (i.e. NDE or near death experience), where different brain regions and frequencies (i.e. gamma, theta, alpha waves) were communicating with one another in a highly correlated fashion. The researchers in this study concluded that the evidence of increased brain activity may help to explain findings of  surges in EEG activity following human, cardiac death.

Given the proposed mechanism of karma as a type of patterned, energy fluctuation affecting physical reality, similar to how electromagnetic forces can affect the orientation and properties of particles, then, building upon this, an increased surge in brain activity could be a vehicle of reincarnation. In this case, the final surge of activity would generate a higher level of vibrational influence on the surrounding environment, propagating to a larger degree than perhaps at other points in an individual’s life. Some Buddhists might state that meditation is learning the art of dying, and the ultimate lesson is learning to peacefully and joyfully release oneself from clinging to life at the time of one’s death. For it is the desires and state of mind at this time that determines the chain of continuation into the next, causal condition of samsara (i.e. cycle of suffering/rebirth).

Thus, the surge would be affected by the individual’s cognitive and emotional state prior to death, and this might dictate the type of unique, energy signature they are radiating into the universe. So, if a person is full of anger or sadness or fear or love, etc, that final signal will be the last pebble dropped into the ocean of their current life, and any causal rippling that occurs afterwards will be tinged with the specifics of that frequency. The energy of the present moment becomes the seed which gives birth to the next or, in this case, rebirth. For on some level, every moment we die and are reborn anew, like a candle’s flickering flame, making the nature of the present moment a product of the past, and wholly within our influential capacity in the now.

This could also correlate with the practice of Tibetan Buddhist monks identifying candidates of reincarnation for the Dalai Lama to continue the previous Lama’s life work. In the past, previous Lamas are said to have meditative visions describing their reincarnation, which they then provide clues of the area for other monks to locate the reincarnated individual. Interestingly, the date of rebirth does not necessarily align with the date of a monk’s death, and can often occur after quite some time has passed. In Mahayana Buddhism, this passage of time between death and rebirth is described as possibly taking from days up to years to occur.

This non-alignment between death and rebirth may have to do with the propagation/permeation of the vibrational signature into the universe. Although the effect of its generation upon the physical reality would be immediate to the action itself, any observable effect on the environment may take some time to manifest. As subtlety upon subtlety builds into a crescendo that brings forth the fruit of causality into the macroscopic world.

Additionally, following this logic, it would seem likely that, depending on the timescale, reincarnation would occur within the surrounding areas of the epicenter of individual, energy generation (especially if reincarnation occurs closer to the time of death). Thus, wherever a person spends a majority of their time, and more especially in the periods prior to their passing, might also be the general area most likely to maintain a higher concentration of an individual’s energy reverberation embedded within the causal environment. Ripples in a pond are always most prominent closest to where the pebble is dropped. Therefore, it might be expected that a future reincarnation would be more likely to occur within the vicinity of death the sooner the manifestation occurs. Though, the reincarnation would not be one of self, but of one’s karmic signature.

Of course, this is assuming the karmic energy follows a linear path of transference and dissipation. If, on the other hand, it acts on a level akin to the quantum state, then it is not necessarily bound by the constructs of space-time and locality. Instead, the energy would have the capacity to have a rippling effect in all directions of time and space from the point of transmission, and the attributes of karmic-manifested events and reincarnation would be more dependent upon the conditions/frequency of the energy itself.

In this case, perhaps the reverberations of karmic energy from all points of space-time also allow for a latently existent karmic force within the universe, similar to gravity. Except, instead of the result of the interaction between physical bodies, it manifests itself as a result of interacting energy frequencies. Any karmic events related to a specific vibrational frequency would occur in physical reality when any individual projects an energy signature compatible with that particular level of vibration. Then the energy would have at least two degrees of interaction, one bound within localized, macroscopic space-time and one that is a microscopic, quantum state.

Like a radio tuner or CB radio, the quantum-level would be like a bandwidth of latent karmic energy to which an individual’s energy signature may tune to a certain station (i.e. frequency of karmic energy) through their own state of mind. By tuning into a particular station, the individual’s energy begins a sort of dialogue with the energy permeating, echoing, and transmitting through space-time, the interaction of which creates a manifestation in physical reality related to the karmic energy exchange. This, in turn, creates a broadcast into the present reality as a result of the interaction. By altering our mind state, an individual is able to adjust their emitted frequency, and thus interact with a different vibration, the interaction of which garners different manifestations/results, just like different radio stations might transmit static or different songs/information.

There are some interesting implications if this is the case. It would mean that the spectrum within which karmic perturbations may occur is an inherent aspect of the physical reality. The spectrum itself would have no latent energy of its own, and would instead be maintained as a neutral state as long as no karmic energy is generated. The spectrum would be like a container in which the generation of vibrations that contain a karmic component would occur within it, allowing for karma to permeate non-local time-space. Therefore, if no karma is generated, then karmic manifestations would cease, once the rippling echoes have dissipated the remaining remnants of any vibrations of karmic energy.

Still, this cessation of dissipation might not be possible if karmic energy is non-local within space-time. Because this would mean that any energy vibration has the capacity to cause ripples in any point in space and time. Thus, the ripples of karmic energy from a future event could have an impact on a past event, creating an ouroboros of perpetual, karmic vibrations within physical reality, a self-feeding karmic loop. This would align with Buddhist philosophy stating that the only way to escape from the cycle of rebirth would be to not generate karma, which would allow a person to disconnect from the karmic dimension of manifestation. A person would need to act in a way that does not have long-lasting causal implications, the effects of which dissipate as soon as they arise, preventing/minimizing karmic perturbations. The dissipation would be the constant rippling of vibrations causing a cancellation effect, so that even if energy vibrations can occur at an point in space-time, there cumulative interaction becomes zero stasis.

Also, if karmic energy is not bound to a linear causality within time, then perhaps this gives credence to the idea that we are all already Buddhas, and to the historical Buddha’s revelation that there were countless Buddhas before and after him. For what if reincarnation and karmic manifestations are on some level also not bound to a one directional linearity of time? What if the karmic repercussions of our actions allow for Buddhas in the past to achieve enlightenment? What if some of those Buddhas in the past are actually some of us reaching enlightenment, and our current lives are a part of our bodhisattva path to help others to reach enlightenment? What if the path is not to achieve enlightenment, but to remember that we have the flame of enlightenment within us which we may always turn towards? Like the radio analogy, we just have to turn the dial to the station and transmit the signal. Or maybe, what we are doing is exactly what needs to be done, as all paths eventually lead to the mountaintop. The only difference being that certain actions lead to less suffering along the way, depending on the point of view.

Additional Thoughts:
There are situations in which the energy surge in relation to death may not occur, such as during severe head trauma. This does not preclude the energy vibrations that have been generated up to that point, nor their effect upon the physical universe. My suggestion merely points out that such a surge may have a more pointed effect on any subsequent, karmic manifestation. In such a case, an individual’s subsequent rebirth may not be as shaded by the state during death, though it might also increase the variability in reincarnation, depending on how residual vibrations permeate throughout physical reality.

It seems wholly imaginable that a fully enlightened being would be aware of the subtle nuances of the karmic dimension, and would be able to utilize their awareness to direct the field in certain ways, taking into account the countless interactions and manifestations that arise thereabouts, not only from their actions, but from all sentient beings. Perhaps they are able to utilize their awareness to transmit an energy signature that creates a particular pattern of ripples, which to the layman may appear chaotic, but align, in perfect cadence with the aware mind, in achieving the goal of enlightenment for all sentient beings as a matter of fact that is bound to happen.

A Possible Mechanism for Karma and Reincarnation (multi-part post 2 of 3)

Part 2: Reincarnation

As a recap, in part 1, I proposed a description of karma as a type of energetic field that permeates physical reality. It could be thought of as an aspect/dimension that functions as a mechanism of the universe due to interacting conditions similar to gravity or electromagnetic radiation. In that sense, karma could almost be thought of similarly as an ether or fluid field that vibrates in response to an energetic input of thought, feeling, or action. Like ripples in a pond from a dropped pebble, these actions affect their surroundings by causing movement within the karmic field which manifest in the observable reality as causal events within the universe. These events occur on both the micro- and macro-level, and on multiple dimensions and planes of physical and metaphysical existence.

One way this causal transference/interaction might occur is through the electromagnetic field generated by the human body. This is because all cellular function within the human body utilizes electrical potentials via biochemical processes (e.g. sodium-ion channels) to translate energy into mechanical work/neural information. Energy causes motion in particles, which can be mapped out as oscillating vibration. And like billiard balls, when a particle contacts another particle, there is a transfer of energy causing the receiving particle to transmit a similar oscillation. This interchange in energy causes fluctuations which are transmitted to the surrounding environment, and at times, can be detected by external devices sensitive to certain forms of vibration, such as EEG.

Because responses are wholly unique to the individual, dependent on the specific conditions of past events and particular molecular arrangement, the energy transmission will have a different cadence, output, and frequency akin to a personal, energy signature. This, in turn, embeds itself within the environment via a rippling effect in causality, whereby all present events in all localities are the result of the synergistic summation of all events prior to the present moment. All particles are being subjected to differing quantities and types of vibrations, and are therefore vibrating at a frequency which entails an interaction of all vibrations being transferred through it. This means that if an entity has the ability to detect all the information being transferred, while also having the capacity to sift and parse through it, it would be possible to recreate any event as well as backwards engineer/understand the basis of all things.

In this sense, an energetic concept of karma and its effect are reflective of the particular energy signatures feeding and generating it, and therefore is not only energy, but information. Interestingly, a person is constantly transmitting this energy field into the world like a radio antennae sending a signal out into the universe. Each of us a localized beacon within an interconnected matrix of physical matter fluidly connected and moving along and experiencing the fluctuation of energy as moments within time. Similar to seaweed swaying with the ocean tides, so too does the energy sway and move through us and our lens of perception as observable reality.

So if, within the dimension of karmic energy, an individual is only a unique combination of vibrations coalescing at a given locality, then, given our current understanding of genetic biology, there appears to be a potential for real-time doppelgangers and rebirth. As science currently understands genetics, based upon empirical evidence, there are a finite number of components (i.e. nucleobases) that can account for all biological life. In order to organize and give rise to an organism, these ingredients are combined in a certain order and pattern which, when compiled and executed, creates a functional, organic, operating system. The genotypic/phenotypic (i.e. heritable/observable) traits differentiating one organism from another is merely a difference in the way the components are assembled and utilized.

It is similar to having a Lego set with a certain number and type of pieces. Depending on how the pieces are assembled, the pieces could form to become any number of things, limited only by the constraints of probability and environmental conditions. Additionally, each organism’s genetic/evolutionary history would be similar to an instruction manual included with each set providing instructions on the general assembly of the pieces. This, of course, would only serve as a guideline, and would allow for the possibility of deviation dependent on the conditions of the actual assembly and later maintenance. So, if we consider that there is a common, biological foundation from which the diversity of all organic life springs forth, then it is wholly possible for there to be real-time doppelgangers and reincarnation.

First off, although the odds for the possibility to occur outside of an individual’s genetic lineage (i.e. fertilization without scientific intervention) are astronomically smaller than winning the lottery, it does not mean it is impossible, merely highly improbable. If an individual’s genetic code is an assembly of common components inherent in all individuals, then it is possible to imagine a situation where certain conditions arise causing another person’s genetic code to be assembled as a near-identical match to it. I say ‘near-identical’ because I do not believe it is possible for the genetic code to be completely identical outside of a historical context.

It has yet to be shown that two distinct bodies can occupy the same space-time coordinates in physical reality. Without this condition, any epigenetic changes upon the code’s expression/structure in the present moment, and extending into the future, will be distinctly unique to the individuals, and will have differing probabilities and outcomes of development. This is why genetically identical twins are not necessarily the same in temperament, even when environmental conditions are highly controlled, because the fundamental vantage point differs. So, perhaps somewhere in a present-day world of approximately 7.4 billion people, there is another person (or maybe more) out there who is, or will be, uncannily similar in many aspects as you as a result of their genetic code and/or its subsequent expression due to experiential, environmental conditions.

Now, if we combine these two propositions regarding karmic energy and genetic variability/convergence, there arises a possible mechanism for reincarnation. If karma is a type of energy (e.g. electromagnetic) radiating from an individual that affects the interaction of particles and the probability of events, then it is feasible to extrapolate that perturbations caused by this energy may also have an affect on the genetic level. Much like high-degrees of radiation can cause mutations to the germ line affecting the assembly of amino acids and proteins and cellular function, perhaps karma can have a similar effect.

What if the energy signature an individual transmits, which embeds itself within the causal tapestry of the physical universe, increases the likelihood of causing a subsequent ripple of energy that has an identical or near-identical signature as its initial foundation? And what if this subsequent ripple physically manifests itself as the assembly of genetic material, whose probability of assembling into a certain pattern was influenced by the prior energy signature? Thus, perhaps the energy signature causes vibrations within the molecular structure, affecting how it assembles, and increasing the likelihood that the structure will alter and begin to vibrate at an identical or similar pattern, propagating the previous signal within the new structure.

Given this, there arises at least two conditions worth consideration. First, the stronger the energy signature, the greater it’s proposed capacity to alter the probabilistic components of the genetic structure. Second, perhaps the greatest opportunity to effect the probabilistic assembly of the genetic code would be during the period of procreation when the process of biological construction is just beginning; since, at that point in time, the genetic code is most fluid, and most conducive to vibrational structuring. It’s often easier to assemble things a certain way when starting from the beginning than having to make renovations later on.  The way these two conditions intertwine may help to explain some of the accounts regarding the conditions of reincarnation.

To be continued in part 3: aligning theory with accounts/conditions of reincarnation

A Possible Mechanism for Karma and Reincarnation (a multi-part post 1 of 3)

Part 1:  Karma

In order to address this, a criterion first should be established to describe how karma might work in the physical world. One way by which it is described is that any action will merit a certain type of equal response that will be meted back in one form or another to the person who performed such an action. Or in other words, what goes around, comes around. Now, in order for this to have some degree of balance, it should not necessarily be the action itself which is weighed, but the intention behind the particular action. Hence, actions speak louder than words, and intentions speak louder than actions. This is because how an action is perceived and morally weighed will differ based upon who/what is witnessing the action and what their moralistic background entails. Thus, a more honest means of measurement, at least from the individualistic level of perception would be the internal compass of intention directing such an action. Of course, this also has it’s own trappings dependent on whether an individual’s moral compass and perception of reality is skewed to such a degree that harmful actions are deemed positive. As such, such things cannot necessarily be sifted out and partitioned into either positive/negative, harmful/beneficial. Even the most deranged serial killer may believe they are helping the individual when subjecting them to some form of torture or death.

So then, perhaps the most balanced and impartial force of karma could be described as some sort of physical, universal, energy exchange, like ripples in a pond, whereby an action transmits energy into the surrounding environment causing a shift in the alignment and orientation of energy as changing states in physical particles, events in time, etc. This energy, on certain levels/dimensions of manifestation, could take on the observable form of changes to the environment or the outcome of events. Like a butterfly that flaps its wings in SE Asia causing a hurricane off the coast of Florida due to a flux in the atmosphere, a chain reaction would occur which embeds and transmits a given energy signature adding to the distinct form of rippling and movement observed to extend into the future. Like the flapping of the butterfly’s wings, these observable, macro effects are not necessarily the result of large-scale events, but instead can be the result of many micro events occurring non-locally and simultaneously.

If we scale down a person’s action to its most basic component driving the direction of intention and subsequent action in an individual, we arrive at the biological processes of neural firing within the brain as one unit of basic measurement. For, apart from the sensory reaction to energetic vibrations received when contacting the sensory organs of touch, smell, sight, hearing, taste, and mental formations, the subsequent thoughts and following actions that are generated could be thought of as the basis for an individual’s karmic balance/exchange. For whether on an unconscious or conscious level, the processing of the sensory information and the constructs formed in response are perhaps the first level at which there is a capacity to affect the accumulation/generation of karma based on the energy we decide to retransmit into the world (which will ultimately contain our key signature of self embedded within the transmission).

In this sense, touching a hot stove or eating something sour, would not be the basis of karma, though the situation itself may have been the result of past karmic energy precipatiting through the world and manifesting as the set of present events or accumulated personal experience, preferences, and inclinations driving the potentiality of possible responses and outcomes. The chain of karma would therefore be the resultant response to the stimuli, as the body responds and sends a signal to the brain telling us the stove is hot or the food is sour in the form of a sensation, which triggers a reaction and a mental formation. It is the contextual nature of the reaction that redirects the energy outwards which can be thought of as the continuing chain of karma tied to our sense of self and ego-direction.

So how does this transmission occur within the biological structure? Within the human brain exists neurons, which contain dendrites and synapses, that have both a chemical and electrical component. So when an action, thought, or feeling has to be generated, or is to be experienced, within the central nervous system, there is an associated neural response which occurs. At the synaptic level this is chemical in nature, and at the neuronal-dendritic level this is electrical. This occurs when chemicals released at the synapse create a chemically-induced ion gradient which allows for a electrical potential to be generated and transmitted along the length of the neuron. Additionally, this is not happening in just one place at a time, but is happening simultaneously in a multitude of regions within the brain and body, forming a unique, constantly shifting configuration of connected networks at any given moment depending on the type of information being received/processed from the sensory environment, whether internal or external of the body.This unique configuration that is constantly occurring could be thought of as the individual self, as it wholly unique to each individual dependent upon their given locality and the inputs received within the space-time matrix.

Like any electrical system, the neural network of the human brain (and in extension the human body) also emits a form of electromagnetic radiation while active. And as long as a human lives within its physical body, this radiation is always occurring in some degree. For example, this is why scientists are able to utilize EEG machines to detect electrical activity from the brain simply from placing pads on the scalp and skin. The energy is being transferred/conducted through the human tissue and creating enough of a change to the exterior environment that the EEG is able to detect it. So, in every moment of an individual’s life, they are transmitting a unique configuration of energy dependent on their processing of wholly unique sensory information which could be described as their energy signature or energy body. It is the result of electrical energy creating a vibrational frequency that disrupts and affects the molecular structure around it, rippling from the point of occurrence and creating a change that oscillates at a similar frequency. The energy generated is like throwing a pebble in a pond that causes ripples to occur in the surrounding space/matter. And these points of occurrence are concentrated wherever an electrical impulse is generated. So, because the central and peripheral nervous system proliferates the entire human body, and an electrical gradient exists within each cell due to the ion gradient of the intracellular membrane, in essence, the entire body radiates an electromagnetic field that interacts with the external environment as both a receiver, transmitter, and emitter.

In this sense, it is wholly possible that thoughts and actions do affect the world in more than a metaphysical sense, and that certain types of thoughts/actions will garner certain types of effects that contain the same underlying signature of energy that generated them and is impressed within them to a given degree. Positive will generate positive, negative will generate negative, and each will have a different configuration and associated effect. Additionally, this also would suggest that a collective effort focused on a certain type of effect/frequency output will have a greater influence on the surrounding environment than an individual one for that particular frequency, as it would increase/strengthen the signal output. Thus, collective forms of concentration may be powerful enough to have an observable effect on the randomness of quantum events eliciting a heightened probability for certain types of patterns aligned with a given frequency and output. Additionally, certain juxtaposed frequencies generated by different nodes of output might garner a cancellation effect dependent upon a variety of conditions including thought-specific ones.Thus, two different ripples might cancel one another. Given that there are likely an infinite number/degree of vibrations and ripples occuring within the space-time matrix, it is conceivable that there are both cancellations and synergies occurring that are currently beyond predictive capacity, creating unforeseen results and combinations thereof. Which is why sometimes “bad” people experience “good” things and vice versa.

This coupling and interaction of energy generated into the world might explain why karmic exchange does not appear to occur in a 1:1 ratio of equal measure. If karma is thought merely as the transmission of energy within the time-space matrix, then events will not necessarily correspond in direct relation to an individual’s actions or thoughts. Instead, any results will be the sum accumulation of all energy being generated and extended out into the universe. Thus, all energy events are like a plethora of butterflies everywhere flapping their wings, and the intermingling of energy fluctuations will cause the fruition of all events observable or otherwise. Like an amorphous fluid constantly in flux, certain parts condensing, other parts expanding, constantly in motion in response to ripples occurring across a multitude of points simultaneously. These changes in energy density manifest on one level as physical experiences and observations.

Yet, we have more control and effect in our immediate environment than we may realize, just like the energy exchanged at the point of contact between two billiard balls is strongest than at the periphery since there is more energy dissipation and entropy. So, a person’s individual energy signature may still have an effect on their immediately surrounding environment to a degree more reflective of their personal state as those things closer to them, in some sense, are more readily influenced by their energy in extension. Once again, this would not be a 1:1 correlation of exchange, since there would be mitigating factors that also have an effect. The way we think and feel will, to some degree, ultimately affect how we respond in situations which, in turn, will affect the outcome of those events and our subsequent interpretations, creating a self-fulfilling loop of expectancy, that can result in a karmic-type spiral. Hence the law of attraction where we attract to us, like a magnet, what we send out. And the more we transmit a certain type of frequency, the more likely this will embed itself into the surrounding environment in an observable way that reflects back to us as events fueling the same type of frequency, if awareness is not utilized to realize this and redirect it (will go into further detail in a future post about top-down reprogramming of habituated response patterns).

To Be Continued with discussion on Radiation, Information, and Reincarnation

Schroedinger Mind

Perhaps meditation serves to increase awareness so that the mind can be in multiple levels/dimensions of awareness simultaneously. It seems that the mind is usually in one of two binary states, either fully focused (concentration) or partially focused on multiple things at once (dispersed). If one can be fully engaged in the present moment (single-pointed focus), it would seem that the focal point of perspective would cease to concentrate on a conventional, ego vantage point and related thought assessments (past/future projections). Because consciousness, to current human knowledge, has no physical mass, without this linear, time-based, tangential point of conscious focus, it may be possible to establish a quantum state able to enter/disperse through multiple/parallel dimensions as a form of geometrically non-tangential, interconscious travel. The single-pointed focus would be like a spear piercing through the veil of linearity to experience a dispersed interconnectedness of layered dimensionality (concentration and dispersal occurring simultaneously without separation). It could be thought of as a method of going inward with thought so that experience becomes sensation, instead of directed outward to where thought becomes subjective illusion. Physical reality becomes an experience of body (physical) and of mind (visceral), moving beyond the interpretation of thought-forms, thus exhibiting its true nature and allowing mind to interpenetrate the truth of its experiential nature (quantum realm of universal energy).
