This article is all over the place... 
Still interesting.
Enjoy!
What is psychokinesis (PK)?
It’s the ‘magical’ part of our minds.
By magical I don’t mean stage magic but the power of the mind to make things happen directly.
A grandiose example from the Bible--God said, “Let there be light; and there was light.”
Clearly, a very high form of word magic.
The same ancient text says that we humans are made in the “image and likeness of God.”
That means we too must have some of that miraculous creative energy, normally ascribed to God.
Apparently we do, and it’s called psychokinesis.
Physicist Helmut Schmidt performed parapsychological experiments that reveal one of the secrets of true magic.
In the experiments, subjects were asked to influence a panel of lights that worked on principles of quantum mechanics.
Some of Schmidt’s subjects scored very high in these tests, proving that by sheer intention they could influence events at the quantum level of nature. This is mind over matter with a vengeance.
But how is it done?
Schmidt concluded that psychokinesis (PK) is a goal-oriented process.
The secret is to focus on the goal, what you’re aiming for.
Don’t worry about how to get there.
Act as if you’re there already.
Focus on exactly what you’re aiming for.
Keeping your attention on the final outcome you’re seeking is the key to PK magic.
The useful lesson: by shaping and holding the attitudes of our minds, we can alter the shape of our world.
A keen illustration of Schmidt’s theory are the levitations of St. Joseph of Copertino, as described in my book, The Man Who Could Fly.
Joseph, from his miserable, bed-ridden childhood to the day of his death, was inspired by one thought, one desire: and that was to be out of this world and in heaven.
And above all things, in a manner of speaking.
All hope, all heart, all energy was focused on God, the Madonna, all--in Heaven.
Up there! All prayer was oriented in an upward direction.
He liked to say to his fellow friars when he was overcome with ecstatic joy: “Andiamo compagni, su! su!” “Let’s go, comrades! Up there! Up there!”
But with Joseph the metaphor triggered actual flights of physical space, and for 35 years he became the iconic flying prodigy of the 17th century, and, without intending it sailed beyond the physics of Galileo and Newton.
Psychokinesis represents a force that emanates from the Mind of nature—not from the physical dimension of reality.
When science gets the courage to confront the transcendent challenges of mind, it will launch a new epoch of human history.
With climate science telling us every day that we’re moving headlong toward global disaster, we’re going to have to rely more and more on our inner resources.
In the meantime, we have to learn what those resources are.
A little homework would help as we find ourselves trying to cope with the end of the world.
Still interesting.

Wow!!
(TMU) — Scientists have been trying to get a better understanding of gamma ray bursts for decades.
Now, according to astrophysicists, new observations suggest that superliminal gamma ray bursts may exceed the speed of light, though this does not actually violate Einstein’s theory of relativity.
The scientists also say the light curvature of these cosmic gamma jet-streams express a bizarre characteristic known as time-reversibility.
Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), which are the brightest electromagnetic event in the known universe, are believed to occur when a high-mass star goes supernova and rapidly collapses into a neutron star or black hole.
Black-hole powered galaxies, known as blazars, are thought to be the most common source.
In their stunning new paper published in the Astrophysical Journal, astrophysicists Jon Hakkila of the College of Charleston and Robert Nemiroff of Michigan Technological University, explain how GRBs may exceed the speed of light in localized gas clouds.
They do not, however, violate Einstein’s theory of general relativity—which states that nothing can travel faster than the speed of light in a vacuum— because the gamma ray bursts are not actually traveling in a vacuum but rather the jet medium.
GRBs also feature time-reversibility, an extremely complex phenomena that similarly does not violate any known laws of physics and that can be expressed mathematically or in thermodynamics.
The paper’s authors compare GRB speed and time-reversibility to a person on one side of a pond skipping a stone toward another person on the other side of a pond: the stone will travel through the air faster than its emergent waves can travel through the water; and the waves will arrive at the person on the other side in reverse order, with the most recently created waves arriving first.
“Standard gamma-ray burst models have neglected time-reversible light curve properties,” Hakkila says. “Superluminal jet motion accounts for these properties while retaining a great many standard model features.”

Good stuff!
When it comes to the topic of consciousness, it’s something, in my opinion, all living life forms posses.
Including plants, and I believe there is conclusive evidence for that.
In fact, the question of whether consciousness is something that resides outside of the brain, or is a product of it, has long been the subject of scientific debate.
Parapsychological studies, which have gone through rigorous testing and according to statistics professor, Dr Jessica Utts at UC Irvine, have tighter controls than any other area of science, hint to the idea that consciousness is not solely located within us.
This is evident by the fact that humans have the ability to “perceive” remote locations regardless of geographical distance (remote viewing) and it’s also evident by the fact that human thoughts and intentions can alter physical material reality at a distant location, at both the quantum level and at the human level.
For example, a paper published in Physics Essays explains how the double slit experiment has been used multiple times to explore the role of consciousness in shaping the nature of physical reality.
The results clearly indicated that human intention, via meditators, were able to collapse the quantum wave function in that experiment, similar to the way observation or measurement does.
The study received a 5 Sigma result, the same result that was given to CERN when they were awarded the Nobel Prize in 2013 for finding the Higgs particle, which turned out not to be Higgs after all).
I also like to point towards this document I found in the CIA’s electronic reading room titled “Research Into Paranormal Ability To Break Through Spatial Barriers” as another example that goes beyond the quantum scale.
Again, the point I am trying to hammer home is that I don’t believe biology is necessary for consciousness, but perhaps sometimes acts like a vessel for it without consciousness being dependant on biology.
Near Death Experiences(NDE’S) are also a great great example hinting to the idea that consciousness is not dependant on biology, and perhaps one of the best.
But what if plants are conscious?
But they don’t have a brain.
Would that destroy the idea of the brain being a vessel of consciousness?
What comes to mind instantly here are the books written by hypnotherapist Delores Cannon.
She has hypnotically regressed thousands of people with regards to supposed past lives, and found that many people have experienced past lives on our planet as well as on other planets as multiple different life forms, including trees, animals and plants.
Now, how would one in a regressed state access these experiences?
Where are they stored?
These are questions that remain unanswered.
The regression sessions are legit in the fact that the patient is actually in a hypnotic state sharing these experiences, there is no question about that, but we have no way of knowing whether or not what they are sharing is real, but the consistency with regards to past life regression among thousands of subjects is interesting.
Many children also share stories that can even be verified regarding their past lives.
When it comes to plants, I’ve always thought that they were living, thinking, breathing, conscious beings.
Grover Cleveland Backster Jr., was an interrogation specialist for the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), who became well known for his experiments with plants using a lie-detector machine.
Through his research, he believed that plants feel pain and have extrasensory perception (ESP).
Author Michael Polan describes his experiments quite well in a piece he wrote for the New Yorker a few years ago regarding plant intelligence:
(Cleve) hooked up a galvanometer to the leaf of a dracaena, a houseplant that he kept in his office. To his astonishment, Backster found that simply by imagining the dracaena being set on fire he could make it rouse the needle of the polygraph machine, registering a surge of electrical activity suggesting that the plant felt stress. “Could the plant have been reading his mind?” the authors ask. “Backster felt like running into the street and shouting to the world, ‘Plants can think!’ ”
Backster and his collaborators went on to hook up polygraph machines to dozens of plants, including lettuces, onions, oranges, and bananas.
He claimed that plants reacted to the thoughts (good or ill) of humans in close proximity and, in the case of humans familiar to them, over a great distance.
In one experiment designed to test plant memory, Backster found that a plant that had witnessed the murder (by stomping) of another plant could pick out the killer from a lineup of six suspects, registering a surge of electrical activity when the murderer was brought before it.
Backster’s plants also displayed a strong aversion to interspecies violence.
Some had a stressful response when an egg was cracked in their presence, or when live shrimp were dropped into boiling water
His (Backster’s) work on this was published in the International Journal of Parapsychology.
Poland also describes the work of Monica Gagliano, a thirty-seven-year-old animal ecologist at the University of Western Australia.
He describes an experiment she conducted with the plant Mimosa pudica, a fast moving plant that can be seen by the naked eye, kind of like the Venus Fly Trap.
Gagliano potted fifty-six of these plants, and had a system that dropped them from 15 centimetres every five seconds.
When they are in danger, these plans curl up, and close their leaves.
The plants did this after a few drops, but then realized that the drops weren’t really harmful so they remained open after that.
It wasn’t just fatigue either, when the plants were shaken they closed up, and furthermore, the plants retained this knowledge because Gagliano tried again a month later and got the same response.
Gagliano said, imagining these events from the plants’ point of view. “You see, you want to be attuned to something new coming in. Then we went back to the drops, and they didn’t respond.”
Gagliano reported that she retested her plants after a week and found that they continued to disregard the drop stimulus, indicating that they “remembered” (source)
Clearly, they learn, remember and apply that knowledge.
These are all factors associated with consciousness and thinking.
There has to be something or someone in there that’s responsible for that learning.
Fascinating isn’t it?
Brains and neurons don’t seem to be a necessary requirement for factors associated with consciousness.
What makes us assume that we need brains and neurons to be conscious?
Why can’t we see any other type of possibility?
It sort of reminds me of the idea that planets have to be “Earth-like” to sustain or have life.
How do we know?
How do we know there aren’t beings that breathe some sort of gas we’ve never even discovered?
How do we know there aren’t beings that don’t need to breathe?
Humans and their assumptions/limited imaginations…We are conditioned to ‘see’ things a certain way.
In the video below, in the second half of her interesting talk, Gagliano describes another experiment that suggests “someone” is in there.
She conducted a similar experiment as Pavlov did with his dogs and makes some very interesting points.

Well no news is good news sometimes. Kenosha Pass here in CO, went to see the leaves changing as that was the last opportunity. (But the roads are a bit windy and without reception and remembering to consult the map first it became a little tricky - just for a bit though, eventually figured it out.
