Hi Oversword I don't see it much different than working with someone or even dancing any time humans work in a coordinated harmony to achieve and end is part of our common day. I have gone canoeing with people that were amazing at how they could work with me and the river.

Will Due Posted June 20, 2020 #30 Share Posted June 20, 2020 Here's an example of a little non local consciousness. These musicians are improvising together in perfect sync eventhough they're many miles apart. Playing together with spirit and soul. Go to 2:01 to see how it all works.

Did you though? Because I swear that the day before 9-11 I had a dream about two giant (as in giant) horses collapsing and tiny people falling off them, and thinking on 9-11 - "**** - that's just like my dream" - but memory is not infallible by a long long way, and false memories are common. So how do we know the experience we had was real and not a hiccup in our very very flawed memories? 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So how do we know the experience we had was real and not a hiccup in our very very flawed memories? I came across a very negative person with a hunchback and couldn't resist having a pop back saying `the bells, the bells` from the Hunchback of Notre Dame film. Followed by `oh yeah, you just crashed and burned`. The next day when I put the news on the Notre Dame Cathedral was on fire and the roof was crashing in. That one creeped me out. It seems to be organic thoughts that arise into my mind out of no where, they then have a habit of occurring in some form. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spartan max2 Posted June 20, 2020 #33 Share Posted June 20, 2020 (edited) I read it and I guess I really don't understand what they mean by "synchronized". Like are the same patterns of neurons firing? And if so I don't understand how that is significant. Like if me and another person are playing the same song I would imagine our neuron patterns would look pretty similar? Or like a synchronized dance, you would have to be aware of everyone else part in order to do your part so I can imagine the neuron pattern would look pretty similar in your brain as well as the other person's because you are also aware of their part as you do your part. I can't grasp what the significance is. Edited June 20, 2020 by spartan max2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does not explain the experiment with healers apparently having an effect on a people’s mri scans who don’t know the healer is working on them from the next room. Hit the link and check out my source. Keep in mind it’s not an article it’s a peer reviewed paper. 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They had subjects isolated from alleged healers and scanned their brains with MRI while instructing the healers to concentrate on the subject at specific intervals. During those times there was a measurable change in specific parts of the subject brains, demonstrating that there was a good probability that they actually did have some kind of effect Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This would be an experiment to test the hypothesis that nothing at all should occur differently with the introduction of remote healers. This first stage is still monumental to our understanding of reality so I am sure it is not accepted by so-called skeptics. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Possibly, but the effect was measured only during the intervals when the healer was instructed to concentrate on the subject. They were in different places so the subject had no way to know when that was and I’m not sure the subject even knew what experiment they were participating in. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
