Dear John:


Most interesting research.  

[Attn: L M]

I am separately asking my friend Leon Maurer to consider what you write and
perhaps comment on it. 



Evidently one might say that there is a need for some direction towards the
existence of 


1	The Universal urge and program for the development of intelligence
in all departments of nature.

2	The astral plane and models thereon which shape the gradual
development of forms.

3	Our atomic and sub-atomic developments seem to be reaching into the
astral fields.  

Certainly at the level of sub-atomics we are dealing more with forces and
CENTERS OF FORCE than anything else. But what stability can be established
for manipulation? 

This is a very important and curious development.

Dallas,

Thanks for your comments.

>>In the THEOSOPHICAL literature it speaks of the mind, needing a concept or
a
procedure, sends out "a finger of thought" and, if powerful enough, it
impinges on an answer in the universal astral light (the record of all
events and things) and can bring it back.  

I wonder.  

It must have something to do with the character and predisposition of the
person, as well as Karma
in general. In the case of Edison so many inventions and developments have
come from his work.<<

Well, in past posts I posted the Peter Gariaev Research in Russia, to me
the implications of their findings are potentially huge. 


If the process they describe involving the Quantum Non-Local Matrix is
indeed a reality then it turns Darwin's adaptive evolution on it's head and
a lot of Science also. 


Gariaev and his team describe the Quantum Non-Local Matrix as outside of our
time and space dimension yet at the same time inseparable and most intimate
to all living form and in inseparable instantaneous communication with the
DNA and Cells of life forms.


They postulate the Non-Local Matrix contains the sum of all past, present
and future forms in infinite potentia and that adaptation is actually the
accessing back and forth for the purpose of locating solutions presented in
our dimension and reality when adaptation is a "necessity of survival" or
when need for optimization is needed. 


This involves one of the most beautiful, l profound expression in Nature. 


How does a Hummingbird adaptively develop a beak expressly shaped to a
unique genus of flower that others may not access for food and nectar? How
does a flower grow a bloom adaptively to attract selectively only certain
species of bird or insects? 


The Gariaev Research explains the interface between the Quantum Non-Local
Matrix and ourselves and the life forms on Earth. 


And reading their papers one sees they make mention that beyond the
Non-Local Matrix is, they believe by indication, a "Consciousness" that
mediates it all and is senior to even the Quantum Non-Local Matrix. 


This may qualify as a circumstance of which you quote Blavatsky in your
post. Here Gariaev as well as others today are converging upon a cognitive
understanding based upon Science itself and new Discovery opening the veil
between the 
material, subtle, and beyond. 


There are several items connected to this general topic. 


One is Jacques Benveniste, formerly Head of Research for France's Medical
Institute and his discovery of "Memory of water," high dilution phenomena.
There is also the "Phantom DNA" discovery. 


All rely upon the Quantum Field Model Form expressing as Magnetic
analytically geometrized information of a senior order that is the substrate
intimate to the physically present specimen and which remains after all
presence of the physical counterpart has been removed. 


In the case of disease this is significant if further validation convinces
Science at large, for removing the physical traces of the disease while the
Quantum Field Model Form remains within the body complete and whole
containing the 
information that can express and regenerate the disease anew in spite of the
best efforts of current Medical Art. I think this is another facet of self
organizing criticality that is new being discovered.


As to Thomas Edision, unfortunately, I Have the Belgrade Edition of the
Patents, lectures of Nicola Tesla and several other works on Tesla. 


Tesla saved Edison's buns and Edison horridly cheated Tesla. 


Tesla, before he even came to America had invented the long distance relay
and Yugoslavia used it to become the first nation with long distance
service. 


Tesla invented A.C. electrical technology which quickly overwhelmed
Edision's faulted D.C. system. when I look at our culture of today Tesla is
the man that was entirely shorted (overlooked) by (his) the peers.
