Seeing through the Third-Eye of a Spiritual Scientist
This brave world explorer examines firsthand the prehistoric painted caves of Europe and South Africa and the paintings of Amazonian shamans while participating in their indigenous mind-altering ceremonies, that the same 'super-natural beings' are seen over and over again. How can that be if consciousness is not a flowing stream, a 'field,' of imagery common to mankind? Of course, it cannot no matter how the skeptics slice and dice it! Anyone worth their salt as a 'quantum' neuro-scientist, of whatever ilk (e.g., biology, psychology, physics, even theology) knows that all paranormal phenomena are screaming this singular truth at us today: 'We are one global human being!' That is, we share a unified field of mind that is only partitioned out into six billion bodies presently. We even have a name for this type of biological distribution throughout nature we call it 'fractal geometry.' Thus, it is not much of a leap when cell biologist Dr. Bruce Lipton declares in The Biology of Belief that our 'DNA/RNA' itself is constructed in accordance with this same mirror-image, self-replication, process of the world around, and within, us. I can't help but meditate on the wisdom of 'as above, so below, as within, so without,' and wonder where did that gem come from anyway -- a third-eye-open shaman? Hancock is right-on-target, therefore, when he forcefully declares: 'Gifted and experienced shamans the world over really do know more -- much more -- than they [scientists] do.' (p. 285) To the point: Is the world we see outside of us, also inside of us, but a fractal spiral at varying scales within the Mind of God? I mean do states of trance and 'vision' plants let us see behind the curtain of creation? Could we be peering into the neurological soul of invisible albeit 'real' realms -- the archetypal, ideal, home of gods? Indeed as this rhetorical question is asked in this book: 'Could it be that human evolution is not just the 'meaningless' process that Darwin identified, but something more purposive and intelligent that we have barely begun to understand?' Ya' think? Go figure! How about when we all learn the secret truths of the shamans' rituals and begin to focus our minds as a single laser of cutting-edge consciousness to solve our planet's problems of pollution? How about when we form larger spiritual communities to heal one another using the 'solar' power, the photosynthesis, contained within organic, natural, plants? That is to say, don't we grasp that we are a cancer-haunted, dis-eased society today because we live, and move, and have our being, for the most part, in a low-energy, highly-toxic, radioactive, asphalt jungle? Oh, now there's the deeper meaning to this astute explorer's 'supernatural' revelations -- we are tasked with restoring the Garden of Eden now! As Hancock himself proclaims, as I do profusely, 'This is hardly surprising since Christ was so obviously and so profoundly a shaman.' (p. 499).
