TRANSFORMATION NOT REFORMATION – Reclaiming our Power is a Spiritual Transformation NOT a Mental One – even deeper down the Rabbit Hole.

I started this blog to get people thinking for themselves.  I have done some down the rabbit hole material, but I find I fall in to the trap of being merely reformational in what I say much of the time.  I realized this when I picked up the latest issue of the Union of Concerned Scientists (UCS) magazine.  It talked about fighting the play book by which corporations create disinformation.  There is no shortage of organizations and blogs revealing the truth of what is going on in society at a surface level.  The big push by so many concerned people is to reform society so that things may become a little fairer under the existing hierarchy.  I now realize that if I am to be different I need to really go down the rabbit hole and bring up things that most people really do not know or even want to know about.  So, I will now walk my talk and explore the transformational path.  It is not enough to just reform what is going on.  We as humanity need to transform our whole way of thinking and hence how we connect to everything, if we are to find way to Live Sustainably with lives we want and not just lives we settle for.  So, let’s begin with some esoteric stuff.  For starters, the world is nothing like you think it is!

I have talked a little about how Jared Diamond and Daniel Quinn refer back to indigenous beliefs and a way of life that showed a way to live well within the world.  Of course, we cannot go back to that way of living, or even to imagine a lifestyle like that now, but we can go forward with their wisdom to understand how modern life can mirror the success of our ancestors for us and our descendants.  The anthropologist Wade Davis also writes about “how ancient wisdom matters in the modern world.”  It is not how they lived that is important as to how they thought about the world.  Simply put, they lived spiritually in the world, but this spirituality was (is) an understanding of the universe in its totality.  While indigenous mythologies may just seem like fanciful stories from ignorant people to explain the universe, it is, when one delves into the stories from a metaphorical understanding that we come to realize they were describing things we would call today, scientific explanations, and this from people who did not have that science, but knew it nethertheless!!  They knew it because they had tapped into the universal consciousness.  So let’s begin a scientific journey of that wisdom we are only now starting to recognize from our current hard peer reviewed science.

Electromagnetic Frequencies of Life and the planet

The Winfried Schumann resonances (SR) are a set of spectrum peaks in the extremely low frequency (ELF) portion of the Earth’s electromagnetic field spectrum. Schumann resonances are global electromagnetic resonances, generated and excited by lightning discharges in the closed waveguide cavity formed by the Earth’s surface and the conductive ionosphere to create a bell-like ringing of the planet. In 1952, Schumann found the Earth’s base frequency to be a low 7.83 Hertz.  This has been likened to the planets pulse.  This in itself is not particularly significant until one starts measuring the EMF of other things, like the human brain, the human body and then other species.  If one hooks up an EEG (Electroencephalography) to a host of lifeforms, the frequency most noted is 7.83Hz.  This is an intriguing harmonic balance of life with the planet itself.   So what about humans?  In an awake state, the general human body healthy frequency is within the range of 62-72 Hz and drops to lower levels of below 58 Hz when disease is present (like cold and flu).  But at even lower levels of around 42 Hz, a person often has cancer or other major debilitating and life-threatening disease.  What about the human brain itself?

Neuroscientists find that the human brain manifests five major frequencies between 0.5-100 Hz, depending on the ‘state of mind’ at the time!  The electrical activity of the human brain reveals intriguing possibilities.

1. Gamma State: (30 — 100Hz) This is the state of hyperactivity and active learning. Gamma state is the most opportune time to retain information. This is why educators often have audiences jumping up and down or dancing around — to increase the likelihood of permanent assimilation of information. If over stimulated, however, it can lead to anxiety.
2. Beta State: (13 — 30Hz) Where we function for most of the day, Beta State is associated with the alert mind state of the prefrontal cortex. This is a state of the “working” or “thinking mind”: analytical, planning, assessing and categorizing. This is also the Left-Brain functioning (the analytical thinking side on our mind), and curiously, the frequency of 18-19Hz has been associated with fear (for instance, a tigers roar has been measured at 18Hz).
3. Alpha State: (9 — 13Hz) Brain waves start to slow down out of thinking mind. We feel more calm, peaceful and grounded. We often find ourselves in an “alpha state” after a yoga class, a walk in the woods, a pleasurable sexual encounter or during any activity that helps relax the body and mind. We are lucid, reflective, have a slightly diffused awareness. The closer we get to the theta state the more the hemispheres of the brain are balanced (neural integration).
4. Theta State: (4 — 8Hz) We’re able to begin meditation and deep prayer. This is the point where the verbal/thinking mind transitions to the meditative/visual mind. We begin to move from the planning mind to a deeper state of awareness (often felt as drowsy), with stronger intuition, more capacity for wholeness and ability in complicated problem solving. The Theta state is associated with visualization and a wakened connection to a higher consciousness.
5. Delta State: (1—3 Hz) Tibetan monks who have been meditating for decades can reach this in an alert, wakened phase, but most of us reach this final state during deep, dreamless sleep.

No one state is better than the other, for all serve a vital function in our daily lives, yet it is important that we cycle through these states at appropriate times during the daily cycle.  It is fascinating that these frequencies have been shown to be crucial in human health and well-being, such that meditation, neurofeedback, hypnosis, and guided imagery have all been demonstrated by homeopathic (and even mainstream medicine) medicine practitioners to help people control their brain waves more efficiently for better health, higher performance, and a more positive experience of life. What is becoming important to understand is that electromagnetic frequencies are a part of every cell in the body and that they are much more than just additions to the physical body.  The great psychologist Carl Jung considered the Delta state frequency to be connected to the “collective unconscious.”  Interesting, is that young babies are in the delta state much of the time. For some reason adult females (and indeed in most mammals) have been shown to have more delta wave activity.  This has been described as a deeper connection to intuition and even more right-brain thinking (the creative more compassionate feeling side of our minds).

We all accept circadian rhythms, yet what controls them?  It has been demonstrated clearly that EMFs are a major part of this phenomenon.  While the biochemistry of these rhythms has been well researched, it is the EMF connection that I found fascinating.  A group of volunteers was placed in a deep underground and shielded bunker to isolate them the earths magnetic fields.  It was observed that the volunteers to one degree or another (again the population bell curve sensitivity) developed health issues.  When a frequency of 7.83 Hz was introduced into the bunker, regular health was established and the health issues went away.  This might also explain why ‘forest and wilderness therapy’ attuning people to the earth’s natural frequency lines is beneficial?

So, in a nutshell, the human brain acts very much as a transmitter and receiver of different frequencies much like a radio picks up different frequencies.  This therefore implies strongly that consciousness exists on a sliding frequency scale.  So, we have a physical body that responds to different frequencies and also our brain/minds that can also move along this frequency band as well.  If we understand this we find we can use various techniques (such as meditation, lucid dreaming, deep prayer etc…) to experience different levels of consciousness.  At this point the question we need ask is “what is consciousness?” If we are sensitive to EMFs, and we have the Electro Sensitive (ES) people show this clearly, then based on the population bell curve, this emphasizes that we are all ES to one degree or another.  Rather than I explain the problems with a closed biological system, I recommend the website by Riejo Makela that will upset mainstream scientists, but if you are open minded enough to keep following his conclusions (and the work of many others), he shows how out Newtonian mindset needs to break past the barriers it has set for itself   Http://www.bibliotecapleyades.net/ciencia/esp_ciencia_life11.htm

At this point I need to explain some quantum theory (kept very simple) that clarifies much of has just been stated.  Reality is much different than our mainstream illusion would have us believe.  Spirituality is more than a belief system, it is a whole understanding of the universe and our place within it.
