Namaste, When you can predict the behaviour and locality of any particle that you are observing..I would believe you. However if it turns into a wave that is something else, also unpredictable and essentially unobservable. If you are only looking for scientifically approved situations then a site like this will hardly satisfy you. Telepathy has scientifically experimented with, so has remote viewing. If you owned an animal you would understand. Species minds and levels of overminds to the Great Mahat are actually quite logical if one believes in reincarnation, spiritual evolution etc etc. To say that morphic fields are pseudo-science and quantum theory isn't is a oxymoron for you term it a theory not even an hyothesis. So called science is dependent on grants and agendas, that is why they don't accept that the water weathering on the sphinx is pre 10- 15,000 years ago. It doesn't fit in with the official religion of the universities and their grantors. However if you are into yoga or have read the Bhagavata Purana and other stuff you would accept Sheldrake as just using different more western terms.........Tony. --- End forwarded message --- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vedanta and other philosophies that have been preserved in India show that terms used such as purusha, prakriti, siva/sakti, anu,paraamanu,tanmatras etc etc corespond to many of the western quantum mechanics and more. In fact it was a common method to spiritualise and even objectify in a deity form, natural energies and science so it would be preserved through dark ages. All of the mathematical equations in the Atharva Veda are yet to be solved, although one was only recently.......Tony.

Namaste, I would like to add this to the debate from the Upanishads. 'Sarvaani imaani bhootani aakaashaadeva samutpadyante; Aakaasha hi evo yebhyo jyaati; Aakaashahaha paranyanam'..'All beings are created out of akasha;Akasha is supreme; Akasha is the ultimate source and basis of things and beings'. The quantum scientists are getting nearer to this with 'field' theory but there is far more in Vedanta yet....Tony Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
