What you think you know about reality is all wrong

For example Karl Pribram sought to find answers to the question of how and where memories are stored in the brain. At Yale, began thinking about patients who had portions of their brains removed for medical reasons yet never suffered the loss of the specific memories. Removal of large sections of the brain might be causing a patient’s memory to become hazy, but no one ever came out of surgery with any selective memory loss. Even removal of sections of the temporal lobes did not create any gaps in a person’s memories.

University biologist Paul Pietsch was very skeptical of Pribram’s claims, and sought out to prove them wrong. He devised a series of experiments, and as the test subjects of his experiments he chose salamanders. In previous studies he had discovered that he could remove the brain of a salamander without killing it, and although it remained in a stupor as long as its brain was missing, its behavior completely returned to normal as soon as its brain was restored. He then flip flopped the left and right hemispheres of the salamanders’ brain, but to his dismay, as soon as he recovered, the salamander quickly resumed to normal feeding.

He took another salamander and turned its brain upside down. When it recovered, it too, said normally. Growing increasingly frustrated, he decided to resort to more drastic measures. In a series of over 700 operations he sliced, flipped, shuffled, subtracted, and even minced the brains of his hapless subjects, but always when he replaced what was left of their brains, their behavior returned to normal.

“We only use 10% of our brain” is just an expression, meant to signify the brains seemingly limitless capacity. Brain mapping proves every section of the brain is engaged at one time or another during the process of thinking.

Brain trauma where victims lose half their brain matter or more, have shown over and over that patients still retain all memories they has prior to said injury, in most cases they also have normal autonomic functioning, as if a complete brain were present.

Brain functioning rewires to make use of the remaining matter. Consciousness I submit is non-local in the purest sense. 
 
A more recent example of memory is not local happened to a Tacoma, Washington man following a severe beating outside a bar. From: Headlines & Global News – By Julie S -

“A man who took a beating in 2002 became a math genius after recovering from severe head injury.
Years ago, Tacoma, Wash., furniture salesman Jason Padgett was beaten by two men outside a karaoke bar. The incident left him with a severe concussion and a bleeding kidney, plus post-traumatic stress disorder and social anxiety. However, it also made him a mathematical genius.

Padgett wasn’t inclined toward academics prior to the incident. He was a self-professed jock and was into parties, and even admitted to cheating at school.

After his injury, he noticed that he gained the ability to see mathematical objects in his mind and understand physics concepts automatically. He said he can now translate his geometric visions into drawings as well and sees everything pixilated. He looks at things as “discrete picture frames with a line connecting them but still at real speed.”

Scientists are baffled by his sudden acquisition of knowledge. I suggest they look to quantum entrainment,  non-locality, and shared consciousness, then the answers become self-evident. The human body can be thought of as receiver/transmitter; that is in contact with the higher self, the unconscious self that never sleeps. An uncommon fact is that our ears emit a tone. This tone would serve as a locater for individualized soul enmeshed in the body that could both communicate with and receive intuitions from the higher self.

Another example is inventions. It is not uncommon for multiple individuals separated by continents, to seemingly invent something “new”, something that had not existed prior, at the same time. Thomas Edison for instance, was not the only one to invent a telephone, he wasn’t even the first! Despite the claims of those defending Alexander Graham Bell, it’s been suggested that both Antonio Meucci and then Elisha Gray successfully invented telephones in the United States before Alexander Graham Bell did in 1876. Others who performed pioneering experimental work with electrical voice transmissions over wires included Thomas Edison, Innocenzo Manzetti, Charles Bourseul and Johann Philipp Reis.

Ironically in 2001 the United States Congress passed a ‘resolution’ stating that given all the facts of the patent disputes between Gray and Bell, under no terms could Alexander Graham Bell have been awarded the patent for the telephone by the United States Patent and Trademark Office in 1876. However that Congressional resolution by itself served only as a declaration, and did not annul or modify the patent Bell received in 1876. The 2001 resolution was also subsequently followed by another legislative declaration upholding Bell’s priority and his status as inventor of the telephone.
 
It can be said, however, the person who first successfully ‘patented’ the telephone was indisputably Alexander Graham Bell. So not only is memory not stored locally in the brain, thoughts are not limited by locality. This should give the reader pause when reflecting on past thoughts and a new perspective on future thoughts. The inventors of the telephone tapped into the same thought center of the shared human consciousness.

A side note, a few years ago, while chaperoning a fifth grade camping trip of one of my boys, one of the fathers noticed a book I was reading at the time, I think it was, “The Holographic Universe”, and asked me about it. I began to talk about the nature of consciousness, and soon there was a crowd of dads around, one of them spoke up and began to talk about sniper training.

He said snipers were trained to think of something else, anything else, while they focused on their target. This was so the victim would have no foreknowledge of the event about to happen. He said this was like when you have the feeling of being watched, and when you look to confirm, you see in fact someone is watching you. It would seem our military sees value in precognition, a form of non-locality, where the observe “feels” they are being observed.

How interesting…
