THINKING ON THE OTHER SIDE OF ZERO
An Intuitive Philosophy of Mind, Memory and Reality
Have you ever felt someone’s eyes on the back of your head? Or perhaps you may have known who was on the phone, even before you lifted the receiver. Science calls these moments of knowing anomalies. If an anomaly cannot be measured it does not exist so far as science is concerned. I wonder how science measures a mind.
Whenever I feel someone’s eyes boring into the back of my head I ask myself if the brain can transmit information, and given the measurements carried out on the brain I have concluded that the answer lies elsewhere. All of the evidence points to mind being non-local, and what that means can be more than you have bargained for.
For a start, it means that mind exists outside of time and space, and points to the likelihood that conscious awareness can exist beyond the body: even beyond this particular life. And since mind exercises the faculty of memory, its content must also be outside of time and space.
This last point was particularly helpful to the people who sought my assistance as a healer when they were facing death. My anomaly was always able to make some real contribution to them, and I hope it does the same for you.
Thinking on the other side of Zero Part 2
This book is about finding an explanation for my experiences as a healer, a role that I fell into without any idea of how or why it worked as effectively as it did. I have always been aware that my mind seems to work differently to others in some circumstances, such as noticing that I did not have any subjective memory at the age of 23 after a fright in an aircraft when the floor hatch on which I stepped fell a half an inch and locked. This gave me a great fright at the time, and the aircrew told me I was as white as a sheet at the time. When I recalled that experience there was no fright associated with the memory.
In my healing experiences, I was able to experience the subject’s experience when it happened, but when I remembered it later, there was no subjective memory of the experience, just a bland observation that ‘this is what happened at the time.’
From the Yoga Sutras I have learned how this works in theory and practice, and have been able to relate the Yoga theory to my limited understanding of quantum mechanics in this book. From what I have written here, I believe I have resolved Bohm’s concept of Wholeness and the Implicate Order, which physics may or may not accept. I have no explicit expectation in that regard.
