Going from the sub-atomic to the cellular level, biologist Dr Bruce Lipton found a direct causal relationship between changes in individual consciousness and the health of cells. In his best selling book, The Biology of Belief, Lipton describes how cells are like tiny television receivers waiting for environmental stimula to program them. Among the key environmental programmers for our cells is our consciousness which relays, through feelings and thoughts, how the cells are to behave. Lipton’s views have gained strong support among alternative health practioners researching the mind-body connection.
Other researchers such as Greg Bradden have argued that human consciousness can indeed impact on the larger environment. In his book, The Divine Matrix (2008), Bradden argues that a vast quantum energy field exists in the universe. Using a range of scientific sources, he concludes that the “Divine Matrix” is responsive to all life in the universe. This creates a complex feedback loop wherein individuals and the universe are interconnected, and can influence one another. What one thinks and feels at an individual level can and does influence larger external events. Bradden’s work firmly suggests that larger galactic phenomena such as solar activity can be influenced by individual and group thoughts. In short, global consciousness can influence sunspot activity.
Another researcher who has extensively reviewed a range of scientific sources, Lyn McTaggart, has also claimed that a universal quantum energy field exists which individuals can influence through consciousness. In her book, The Intention Experiment (2008), she claims that through positive intention, groups of individuals can influence their environments and change their lives. She has conducted a series of intention experiments that help verify that positive intention of groups of individuals focusing their thoughts on particular outcomes, can dramatically influence events around the globe. Again, her reseach leads firmly to the conclusion that a complex feedback loop exists between solar events and global concsiousness.
So going from sub-atomic particles and molecular particules to global events, it can be concluded that there is much scientific research firmly pointing to human consciousness as a significant factor in influencing the external environmet. So when it comes to sunspot activity, global consciousness is a factor to be considered. So this leads to the question, if global consciousness can influence sunspot activity, why the zero sunspot count for August 2008?
Did a Change in Global Consciousness cause the Zero Sunspot Activity for August 2008?
The idea that global consciousness can change and evolve is not new since this is something that Tielhard de Chardin proposed, and eventually got him into trouble with Catholic Church authorities. So if there has recently been some dramatic shifts in global consciousness, what might be driving this?
One answer provided by Mitch Battros is that global consciousness is being influenced by solar activity. Consequently, the highly active 23 solar cycle that end in July 2007, may have played a major role in the evolution of human consciousness. Solar Cycle 23 may have caused a rise in global consciousness by virtue of the fact that millions of individuals may have found themselves operating at a higher capacity. The net effect of heightened sunspot activity on human consciousness may have been a rise in global consciousness.
Another argument is that many have argued that the Earth and our solar system has entered a new region of the galaxy which makes possible a more evolved form of global consciousness. This has been referred to as the 'photon belt' and it has been argued to be a region that impacts on the frequencies of the Earth, the Sun and other planets in our solar system. Other theorists have argued that the plane of our solar system has come into alignment with the galactic core of the Milky Way thereby impacting on global consciousness. All these may be factors driving changes in global consciousness, but the instrumental factor has been the growth in instantaneous global communications.
The best evidence of a dramatic shift in global consciousness is the development of the internet and the global communications and cyber-communities this has spawned. The growth of internet social networks and discussion groups, has enabled individuals from around the planet to network with one other, establish new relationships, and create new identities that break down more local or national identities. More significantly, the internet has made it possible for communities to share information and take action to deal with global problems as they arose. The internet has been a dramatic technological development that has made possible rapid changes in global consciousness. This change is unrivalled in human history and perhaps only the establishment of the printing press in the 15th century comes close to what is currently occuring.
