bump for later read...
My body is, at least partially, controlled by a wireless EM network? Seems like it would get messed up near powerful radio transmitters or high voltage AC lines.
Call me skeptical so far.
LOL If you want to achieve total consciousness try an anvil.
I’ll show you proof.
Goto your toolbox and get out an ordinary wire tester... you touch it to an insulated wire, it tells you if current is flowing through that wire by measuring the electromagnetic field, right?
Take the terminals in your hands, and you can use your mind to make that needle go up, or down.
All common results of doing meditation, mantra and puja practice.
We have also found that one person’s brain waves can actually synchronize to another person’s heart. Furthermore, when an individual is generating a coherent heart rhythm, synchronization between that person’s brain waves and another person’s heartbeat is more likely to occur. These findings have intriguing implications, suggesting that individuals in a psychophysiologically coherent state become more aware of the information encoded in the heart fields of those around them.
Mind to mind transmission. aka guru yoga. Literally 'teacher union' which is a goal of practice to reach a point where the student 'sees' the teacher's mind. More commonly expressed as the student's mind becomes one with the teacher's mind. However mind to mind transmission from teacher to student takes place all the time even though the student isn't aware of it.
The heart has its reasons of which reason knows nothing.
Blaise Pascal
I was in fifth grade when my uncle showed me the wire tester thing. He didn’t have any personal explanation, you just said think at it you can make it go up, make your mind a blank and it’ll go down.
The rest is searchable with scientific sources, not new agey places.
Everybody has a wire tester...borrow one.

on this subject
I have read the following two peices of information, from forgotten sources over many years ago, and many years apart:
the heart muscle contains a number of cell types, one of which is found in only one other place in the body - the brain;
and
some people who have received full heart transplants have afterward noticed taste, color, and other sensory-type sensation preferences they did not previously have; preferences that on further investigation were found to be preferences of the heart donor; reflecting some sort of “memory” in the heart and transmission of it to the brain
bttt
WHAT HAPPENS TO PEOPLE WITH HEART TRANSPLANTS THEN??
There are a large number of phenomena that are still unexplained.
One, for example, is the “I’m being watched” reaction. It’s been shown in a number of studies that people seem to have an unknown type of knowledge if someone is staring at them.
Another example is the deal when dogs know their owners are on the way home. The dog’s behavior is pretty standard, then, a little while before the owner gets back home, the dog starts going to the door, or pacing the driveway, something like that. I’ve seen this myself in multiple dogs.
So I am open to believing there are things we don’t understand yet.
And I find it quite fascinating!
You get an uncontrollable urge for kimchee...

Not a unbelievable theory. I’d had a broken neck long ago with still some nerve impairment (though thankfully not severely debilitating). I can tell from what I’ve been through that each part of your body has it’s own logic (if not brain). You are sort of a distributed brain system.
Even without a full brain connection, your parts try to function on their own.

One unmentionable part of my body does seem to think for it’s self. It happened just today when I was helping this blond babe load some purchases in her car...
Amazing and so stunning in its implications for our mental and emotional well being as well as the health of our bodies in general. It should also serve as a warning to liberals, who are notoriously negative people, to do some serious self-help work.
That thing about being able to sense when someone is staring at you is real. I’ve read the studies and I’ve done experiments myself. It is real. It’s not 100% accurate and some people can’t do it at all. but most people can do it with an accuracy somewhere between 55% and 75%, IIRC. I was very good at it...with accuracy at the extreme high end. The dog thing I dunno. I think the dog just has a very good internal clock and knows what time it is even better than humans do when they have a clock to look at. They also have hearing so good we are not able to comprehend it. They can listen to cars driving down a road 4 blocks away and distinguish between each and every one. They know when their master’s car is coming when it is that far away.
I do not know what it is about humans that makes their senses so pathetically dulled. I know they have the capacity to enhance their senses. Take blind people for instance. They develop their hearing, touch, and smell far beyond what a sighted person has. So much so in fact that they recognize sighted people as having DISABILITIES in the other senses.
I can tell you I understand these things because I had phenomenal perception when I was young...every sense I had was better than anyone I knew. I could hear dog whistles. I could hear the sound coming off of light bulbs when they were on. I could hear the sound coming off of the picture tube of a TV when it was running. I could smell things other people could not. I could hear when people were getting out of their car and coming to the front door before they rang the doorbell. I could hear when the gas valve on the furnace opened up and I could hear when the electronic ignition sparked to ignite the flame...and I could hear it from upstairs when I was sound asleep. It woke me up every night. several times each night. I could hear when someone left the TV on while plugged into the VCR and turned the VCR off. The Tube would go dark when there was no input. I could hear the sound of the picture tube in the energized state even though there was no picture sent to it. I could hear when the dog suddenly woke up with a start and stood up because he heard something. I heard this from sound asleep also and it woke me up.
My sinuses used to burn and my throat would burn if I got within 5 feet of a person wearing cologne or perfume. I hated perfume until I was in my thirties. The odor from perfume was overwhelming. Like a firetruck siren in your front yard making your head hurt.
I could read 3 rows below the 20/20 vision line on an eye chart.
Then I got old and my senses all dulled. Now I’m far sighted, can’t see in the dark, can’t smell a damn thing and am half deaf.
You know how a dog can sense when a storm is coming? I know how they do it. They hear it coming 40 miles away...or more. I know how they do it because I could hear the storm coming 10 minutes before any human in my house could hear it. The dog would hear it 30-40 minutes before them and 20-30 minutes before me.
and not all dogs could do these things. there were some dogs that were pathetic. I remember when I was very young being disgusted by the pathetic sensory abilities of some very small lap dogs. Good god some of them were so stupid and pathetic I could hear and smell better than they could. To this day I cannot stand to be around most dogs littler than 25 lbs.
Don't know how true it was, but I trust Sr. Ann Marie.
I think the dog thing is true. I had a dog and a roommate and worked irregular hours. My roommate told me Spike always knew 5 minutes before I arrived - always.
