Hi folks
This fits nicely into the holographic universe theory put forward by Michael Talbot.

imagine if we are existing in the brain of someone else, and then in our own brains, we have millions of universes as well. it could potentially go on and on forever..... i like it.
thanks Muzz. very informative.

Hi corson. Its amazing when you think about it.

[Peace of Mind]

And to think we only use about 10% of our brains. If the science about the universe is correct...then further and deeper space exploration may help in unlocking/understanding dormant parts of the brain.

Peace

as above, so below
i once went so deep down into the earth, only to emerge... in space

And to think we only use about 10% of our brains.
I wonder if it is that we only use 10% of our brains, or that modern science can only explain 10% of how we use our brains ;).

[Muzz]

They say we only use 10% of our brains, just imagine if we used the other 60%

...and/or that is how much of our brain THEY want us to use :)

As above so below. Look within for Insight. Invision everything. Be Intuitive. Use your I-MAGI-NATION and pick the lock.

I like all your comments, mostly the last from TheTwos, which is philosophically or practically correct, but I must blow the bubble here, it has been proven through brains scans that this 10% is a legend, not true.
Now lets make that still more awsome: did you know that we have "brain cells" i.e. neurons, in the heart as well, and that they react indepently from the brain, receiving information and feeding it back to the brain for reaction in turn? Incredible hey! Our heart litterally think, albeit unconciiously, if we let him.

May be spiritual evolution has to do with making our heart thinking becoming conscious and leading?

May be we are living in the heart cells of the universe versus in the brain cells.

What if the easiest most accessible lock were the heart? The most hidden but accessible knowledge!?



Head-Heart Interactions
Traditionally, the study of communication pathways between the "head" and heart has been approached from a rather one-sided perspective, with scientists focusing primarily on the heart’s responses to the brain’s commands. However, we have now learned that communication between the heart and brain is actually a dynamic, ongoing, two-way dialogue, with each organ continuously influencing the other’s function. Research has shown that the heart communicates to the brain in four major ways: neurologically (through the transmission of nerve impulses), biochemically (via hormones and neurotransmitters), biophysically (through pressure waves) and energetically (through electromagnetic field interactions). Communication along all these conduits significantly affects the brain’s activity. Moreover, our research shows that messages the heart sends the brain can also affect performance.



The heart communicates with the brain and body in four ways:

Neurological communication (nervous system)
Biophysical communication (pulse wave)
Biochemical communication (hormones)
Energetic communication (electromagnetic fields)


The studies described in this section probe several of these communication pathways, looking specifically at how the brain responds to patterns generated by the heart during positive emotional states. The first two studies focus primarily on neurological interactions, demonstrating that the afferent signals the heart sends the brain during positive emotions can alter brain activity in several ways. In the first study, we find that cardiac coherence can drive entrainment between very low frequency brainwaves and heart rhythms, thus further expanding our understanding of the physiological entrainment mode described in the previous section. In the second study, we learn that coherent heart rhythms also lead to increased heart-brain synchronization. The implications of these findings are explored in the third study, which shows that in states of high heart rhythm coherence, individuals demonstrate significant improvements in cognitive performance.

Taken together, the results of these studies demonstrate that intentionally altering one’s emotional state through heart focus modifies afferent neurological input from the heart to the brain. The data suggest that as people experience sincere positive feeling states, in which the heart’s rhythms become more coherent, the changed information flow from the heart to the brain may act to modify cortical function and influence performance. These findings may also help explain the significant shifts in perception, increased mental clarity and heightened intuitive awareness many individuals have reported when practicing the HeartMath techniques.

The final two studies in this section are concerned with energetic communication by the heart, which we also refer to as cardioelectromagnetic communication. The heart is the most powerful generator of electromagnetic energy in the human body, producing the largest rhythmic electromagnetic field of any of the body’s organs. The heart’s electrical field is about 60 times greater in amplitude than the electrical activity generated by the brain. This field, measured in the form of an electrocardiogram (ECG), can be detected anywhere on the surface of the body. Furthermore, the magnetic field produced by the heart is more than 5,000 times greater in strength than the field generated by the brain, and can be detected a number of feet away from the body, in all directions, using SQUID-based magnetometers (Figure 12). Prompted by our findings that the cardiac field is modulated by different emotional states (described in the previous section), we performed several studies to investigate the possibility that the electromagnetic field generated by the heart may transmit information that can be received by others.

The Heart’s Electromagnetic Field




Figure 12.
The heart’s electromagnetic field--by far the most powerful rhythmic field produced by the human body--not only envelops every cell of the body but also extends out in all directions into the space around us. The cardiac field can be measured several feet away from the body by sensitive devices. Research conducted at IHM suggests that the heart’s field is an important carrier of information.



Thus, the last two studies summarized in this section explore interactions that take place between one person’s heart and another’s brain when two people touch or are in proximity. This research elucidates the intriguing finding that the electromagnetic signals generated by the heart have the capacity to affect others around us. Our data indicate that one person’s heart signal can affect another’s brainwaves, and that heart-brain synchronization can occur between two people when they interact. Finally, it appears that as individuals increase psychophysiological coherence, they become more sensitive to the subtle electromagnetic signals communicated by those around them. Taken together, these results suggest that cardioelectromagnetic communication may be a little-known source of information exchange between people, and that this exchange is influenced by our emotions.

I'm so grateful this was posted...I lost it years ago with a hard drive fail, and couldn't remember the name of the site.

"As above, so below" is the best explanation for astrology and these two pictures demonstrate the principle beautifully.

By the way, the neurons in the left hand photo are those of a mouse brain.

The image in the right hand image is not a photograph from the Hubble telescope, but is a drawing.

But never mind.
The Holographic Universe is for real.

We are all living inside a mouse brain. ;)

Thank you Flash for the info and links this is fascinating stuff.


Impacts on Health and Disease:

The heart is the most powerful oscillator in the body and its behavior is naturally nonlinear and irregular. One measure of the irregular, nonlinear activity of the heart is called heart rate variability or HRV. The resting heart, instead of beating regularly, engages in continual, spontaneous fluctuations. The heartbeat in young, healthy people is highly irregular. But heart beating patterns tend to become very regular and predictable as people get older or as their hearts become diseased. The greater the HRV, the more complex the heart’s beating patterns are and the healthier the heart is.

Quote:

Complexity here refers specifically to a multiscale, fractal-type variability in structure or function. Many disease states are marked by less complex dynamics than those observed under healthy conditions. This decomplexification of systems with disease appears to be a common feature of many pathologies, as well as of aging. When physiological systems become less complex, their information content is degraded. As a result they are less adaptable and less able to cope with the exigencies of a constantly changing environment. To generate information a system must be capable of behaving in an unpredictable fashion… Certain pathologies are marked by a breakdown of this long-range organization property, producing an uncorrelated randomness similar to white noise.

-Ary Goldberger

Makes you think about how we behave as children and when we get older and more "sensible". Are we making ourselves ill by getting stuck in a rut becoming predictable and set in our ways.

Im off to do something random. :p


Thanks again Flash.
