editorial Ancient civilizations‌ what mysteries do they hide? This issue opens with a fascinating article about Nabta Playa, a remarkable site composed of hundreds of prehistoric tumuli, stelae, and megalithic structures located in the Nubian Desert (Egypt).

Following our tradition, our psychology section brings you the most interesting topics in the field. On this occasion, we approach the figure of William Tuke, the first person to view mental illness as a disease from which a sufferer could actually recover; this was reflected in his treatment of patients with sympathy and dignity rather than disgust.

Our readers know that Ispectrum Magazine always has the privilege of interviewing renowned scientists and researchers from all the fields, and this time our interview was with Mona Lisa Schultz, psychiatrist and neuroscientist, who spoke to us about emotions. Do they matter for our physical health? How much? What can we do to manage our emotions?

Controversial or not, Dan Winter always shoots fire with his theories like this one about the electrical origin and history of negentropic centripetal fields in blood, titled History and Physics of Fire in the Blood.

As always, thanks for reading. Please share and comment, we want to have your feedback and to know what interests you.

The Ancient Astronomers of Nabta Playa

N

abta Playa is a remarkable site composed of hundreds of prehistoric tumuli, stelae, and megalithic structures located in the Nubian Desert, approximately 100 kilometers west of Abu Simbel in southern Egypt. They are the result of an advanced urban community that arose approximately 11,000 years ago, and left behind a huge assembly of stones, which have been labelled by scientists as the oldest known astronomical alignments of megaliths 4

in the world. Some archaeologists believe that the people of Nabta Playa were the precursor civilization for the first Nile cities that arose in Egypt thousands of years later. to live as normal a life as possible.

His courageous determination to carry on led to many studies into his condition, books being written about him and an illuminating BBC documentary of his struggles - The Man Who Lost His Body.

The ancient remains of Nabta Playa were first discovered in 1974 by a group of scientists led by Fred Wendorf, an Anthropology Professor from the Southern Methodist University in Texas.

The team of researchers had stopped for a break during the arduous journey from the Libyan border to the Nile Valley when, as Wendorf explained, “we were standing there minding our own business, when we noticed potsherds and other artifacts.� It was to be the start of an incredible discovery.

Wendorf made several more visits to the site during the 1970s and 1980s, each time discovering something new. But the real significance of Nabta Playa was not recognised for a long time, and it was

to be several decades before researchers discovered the dozens of stone structures that

are known today, and began to realize the role and importance of these great megaliths.

The Early People of Nabta Playa

Although Nabta Playa currently lies within a dry and unforgiving desert, it was not always this way.

Scientists have been able to determine that around 10,000 BC, a climatic change occurred over North Africa caused by a northward shift of the summer monsoons.

This change brought enough rainfall to the region to fill a number of playas (dry lakes) for at least several months of the 5

year, and thereby support life for both animals and humans.

Archaeological evidence appears to suggest that the first settlements of people in Nabta Playa arrived between 11,000 and 9,300 years ago.

Wendorf, and ethnolinguist Christopher Ehret, have suggested that the people who occupied the region at this time were pasto-

ral nomads, who may have set up seasonal camps, moving on again when the water dried up.

People of this time herded cattle and made ceramic vessels. Although very few ceramics have been found from this time period, those that have are considered to be among the oldest identified in Africa.

Around 9,000 years ago, the settlements became larger and more sophisticated and the people built huts with fire hearths, arranged in straight rows, and started to dig deep walk-in wells, enabling them to have a year-round water supply, thus providing the conditions necessary for permanent settlement. During this time, the area was grassland and supported gazelle and hare and the peo-

ple were able to survive by hunting and eating wild plants. By around 8,100 years ago, there is evidence of domestication of animals, including goats and sheep, and the establishment of an organized labor force.

Between 8,000 and 7,000 years ago, the region suffered two major droughts which caused the water level to be significantly lowered. Nabta Playa became hyper-arid and virtually lifeless and 6

the settlements were abandoned. However, the droughts eventually subsided and, after a 1,000-year hiatus, groups of people began returning to the Playa. It was from this time onwards, that the region saw the arrival of a substantially more complex and advanced society and it was during this period that most of the major megalithic structures were constructed. It is considered to be the height of human occupation at Nabta Playa.

The stone structures of Nabta Playa

The megaliths can be found in several separate clusters, arranged in an approximately north-south direction. In the northern most area of the site, there is a group of around ten tumuli (mounds of earth and stones raised over a grave), which are made from sandstone, and have been found to contain the remains of cattle.

Over several thousand years of habitation, the people of Nabta Playa constructed numerous megalithic monuments, including stone circles, underground tombs, huge stone slabs, and rows of stelae, which extend over about 2,500 meters. The megalithic monuments are among some of the oldest in the world, pre-dating Stonehenge by thousands of years.

7

Most of the tumuli found in the cluster were composed of unshaped stones that contained piles of bones belonging to cattle, goats, and sheep. However, one tumulus stood out above all the others, as it was larger, and dug into the ground surrounded by a clay frame. Inside, archaeologists found the remains of an entire young cow, dating back around 7,400 years. The cow had been covered with broken rocks that formed a mound eight meters in diameter and one meter high.

Playa may have been used as a regional ceremonial centre, which was unprecedented in Africa at that time. Although similar megalithic structures have been found in other areas, they are generally dated much later than those found in Nabta Playa.

The discovery was significant as the piles of cattle bones and the construction of the tumuli for the remains suggest that the animals were sacrificed and that much effort went into their burial. The practice of sacrifice is usually associated with a belief in a god or gods and so this finding, combined with the discovery of megalith alignments and stone circles, suggest that Nabta 8

The cattle graves

The calendar circle

Approximately, 300 metres south of the cattle grave is a stone circle, which is another significant feature of the site. Dating back at least 7,000 years, the stone circle is among the oldest of archeoastronomical devices, designed as a prehistoric calendar to mark two significant celestial phenomena – the summer solstice, which is associated with the onset of summer rains, and the arrangement of stars in the night sky, which they used to guide themselves across the desert.

The stone circle, which measures only four meters in diameter, is

The enigma of the table rocks

Another significant feature of Nabta Playa is the series of small megalithic stone complexes that had been built on top of table rocks. Table rocks are large mushroomshaped rocks that are naturally formed by erosion. Over thousands of years, they became buried by several metres of clay and silt, so one question

that has mystified scientists since their discovery is, how did the people of Nabta Playa find them? There would have been no visible trace of the rocks at that time. One suggestion is that they were discovered by accident during digging for wells, but it would seem to be somewhat of a coincidence for so many table rocks to 11

have been located in this way.

Once located, the people of Nabta Playa further shaped the table rocks to have convex sides and one straight edge that faced north.

They then placed another large shaped stone placed horizontally on top of the table rock, which some believe had been sculpted to

resemble a cow or other large animal. A number of other rocks were placed to hold the ‘sculpture’ in position, and the pit was then filled in with sediment.

Scientists believe that the ‘sculptures’ date back to between 5,500 and 5,000 years ago.

An exodus from the Nubian desert at 5000 years ago could have precipitated the development of social differentiation in pre-dynastic cultures through the arrival in the Nile valley of nomadic groups who were better organized and possessed a more complex cosmology.” (Malville, Wendorf, Mazar & Schild, 1998)

“Perhaps the most convincing tie between the myths and religion of Ancient Egypt and the Cattle Herders of the South Western Desert are the groups of Nabta Basin stelae. The stelae here face the circumpolar region of the heavens. According to The Big Dipper

According to Schild and Wendorf, there is enough evidence to suggest that at least some of the roots of ancient Egyptian beliefs, magic, and religion, originated with the people of Nabta Playa. For example, some of the stalae at Nabta Playa are aligned with the brightest star of the pattern of seven stars known as the Big Dipper, which forms part of the Ursa Major constellation. Records indicate that this star was also very important in ancient Egyptian cosmology. Furthermore, the row of three megaliths within the calendar circle of Nabta Playa are believed to rep13

so successful that it caused a fundamental shift in the laws relating to mental illness and its treatment. The following is the story of The Retreat and William Tuke, both of which played a defining part in revolutionizing age old attitudes to mental illness and serving as a model for how asylums should be run.

illiam Tuke, a Yorkshire Quaker, opened ‘The Retreat’ in York, England, in 1796. Tuke was one of the first to view mental illness as a disease from which a sufferer could actually recover, reflected in his treatment of patients with sympathy and dignity rather than disgust. The Retreat became 15

and public service. Little else is known about Tuke’s early life, but after the death of a Quaker at the York Asylum, Tuke’s name would be forever written into history and be referenced in almost all texts referring to the development of moral treatment for the mentally ill.

Born in 1732, William Tuke belonged to a leading Quaker family in York. He came from a long line of non-conformists, with his grandfather having been a supporter of the Society of Friends (later the Quakers), suffering imprisonment and losing his property because of his religious beliefs. Having the benefit of being from a well financed family William received a very strong education, later in life being taught by a clergyman which undoubtedly strengthened his religious and moral idealism. Much of his early adult life was spent in the merchant business, but he always found time to pursue philanthropic

In this era it was a common assumption (by experts and the public), that the mad were wild beasts, whose madness could not be tamed. Some were viewed as less than human or even possessed by dark forces. Although lunatic asylums did exist they were comparable to a torture chamber, with patients far better off on the outside rather than the inside. A regime of terror reigned in the asylums, with brutal treatments such as sudden immersion in cold baths, blistering, debilitating purges and long term immobilization in manacles. With the general conception that lunatics had lost their reason beyond recovery, it seemed to give free 16

reign to these torturous practices. You could be forgiven for thinking that the administrators of these asylums had taken a page from the Spanish Inquisition.

17

In 1790 a Quaker, Hannah Mills, was interned at the York Asylum, which was no different from any of the other asylums of that day and age.

Friends of Mills, living some distance away, asked acquaintances in the village to check on her. Arriving at the asylum they were turned away and refused access, and later on it was discovered that in fact Mills had died in the squalid conditions there. The Quakers became suspicious that she should die after only a few weeks in the asylum and on visiting there they found that the patients were treated inhumanely.

Appalled at what he saw there William Tuke took charge of a project for a new type of asylum based upon the Quaker principles of morality and a basis that the inner light of

a person can never be extinguished. This new form of asylum would focus on treatment with the goal of recovery, rather than sheer brutality in the hope of beating the madness out of someone.

Although he had a strong will and a philanthropic goal, it was not so easy to raise the m o n e y required to build a new asylum. William Tuke’s grandson, Daniel Hack Tuke, described in an account in 1885 the problems his great grandfather endured in 18

trying to bring together the Quakers to help bring his vision into reality.

Daniel Hack Tuke

‘In the spring of the year 1792, William Tuke made the memorable proposition to a meeting of the Society of Friends held in York, that it should have an institution under its own control, for the care and proper treatment of those who ‘laboured under that most afflictive dispensation – the loss of reason’. But the proposition was far from meeting, in the first instance, with a cordial response. Some of the speakers denied the want of any such institution; others maintained that it was entirely out of the province of such an assembly to enter into a consideration of the subject; and the greater part manifested (what might naturally have been expected) little acquaintance either with the extent to which insanity existed, or with the actual condition of the insane.

A small number, however, including his eldest son, and the well-known grammarian, Lindley Murray, warmly seconded the proposal. At the subsequent conferences on the subject much fresh evidence, which had been collected, was earnestly put forward, and at length the non-contents were satisfied, and allowed the following resolution to be carried: ‘That in case proper encouragement be given, ground be purchased, and a building be erected sufficient to accommodate thirty patients, in an airy situation, and at as short a distance from York as may be, so as to have the privilege of retirement; and that there be a few acres for keeping cows, and for garden ground for the family, which will afford scope for the patients to take exercise when that may be prudent and suitable’ – a resolution which indicates, very clearly, the enlightened benevolence of its authors. This was also evinced by the name proposed for the establishment – “The Retreat” – by which it was “intended to convey the idea of what such an institution should be, namely a place in which the unhappy might obtain a refuge; a quiet haven in which the shattered bark might find the means of reparation, or of safety’’.’

19

As Daniel Hack Tuke’s account shows quite clearly, his great grandfather had an encompassing vision for what the asylum should be like. In comparison to what already existed at the time it must have seemed even fanciful to

some of the Quakers, especially those who although religiously inclined had little understanding of mental illness itself. It took two years for Tuke to obtain the necessary funds and garner enough support for the project. Throughout this time

Tuke never lost his passion and urgency for the project. At one point he travelled to St Luke’s Hospital, hoping to increase his knowledge on the treatment of the insane. The patients here were in a state of such misery and hopelessness that it shocked him deeply, especially the case of one woman who was chained naked to a wall and left there with only dirty straw as a bed. Although he had so far faced some problems in his project this experience left him in no doubt that it had to succeed. Eventually Tuke had amassed the requisite money to commence building Original Building of The Retreat,York(1797) The Retreat. capacity. It is likely that from the outside people viewed The Retreat as some strange religious project rather than a serious attempt at curing the insane. After all, no-one had ever seen or heard of anything like it. Tuke found that many people derided it at first, even making fun of it and distancing themselves from him. There were no chains or manacles and patients were free to walk the grounds. Physical punishment was strictly forbidden.

In 1796 The Retreat opened, set in the countryside of York. Tuke had attached great importance to the idea that patients should have time to reflect and open spaces to have access to nature as part of the rehabilitation process. Although the building held 30 people at first there were only three patients. Gradually this increased to eight, way below 21

Tuke focused treatments towards personalized attention and kind heartedness.

He believed that compassion, not cruelty, could help cure those afflicted with many mental illnesses.

Occupational therapy was introduced, with patients encouraged to engage i n mild labour in the fields, giving them a sense of worth and reminding them of the lives they used to live. In the picturesque and tranquil settings Tuke’s treatments began to take effect.

In addition to the personalized therapies there was a strong community bond built within The Retreat based upon trust and order.

Everyone felt part of the community and could help contribute to daily life. Patients wore their own clothes and were treated as people who had temporarily lost social behaviours but that they could recover them through moral strength and self-restraint.

Tuke focused treatments towards personalized attention and kind heartedness. He believed that compassion, not cruelty, could help cure those afflicted with many mental illnesses.

22

To begin with there was a minimal use of restraints.

Doors were locked and the window frames were actually iron bars, with straightjackets employed only when absolutely necessary.

Although the gardens were beautiful, at the outskirts there was a sunken wall, almost invisible at a distance, to stop patients from escaping. Medical treatments used in other asylums were tried and discarded quite quickly, with an apothecary serving as The Retreat’s physician.

The success of The Retreat owed much to its staff. George Jepson was the first superintendent and, alongside the apothecary Thomas Fowler, concluded that the use of fear tactics and threats employed

so profusely in other asylums actually made patients worse, whereas allaying the fears of patients helped them.

Jepson and Tuke built a strong relationship built around their principles and together started to bring the treatment of the insane out of the dark ages. Originally there was no intention to form a new model of treatment for the mentally ill, only to give them a supportive environment in which they could regain their senses. Although originally only accepting Quakers, The Retreat gradually began to take in patients from all walks of life, and interest in the treatments used there became of interest to those involved in mental health care both at home and abroad.

23

William Tuke’s grandson Samuel put great emphasis in his 1813 book ‘Description of The Retreat’ on the importance of improving morale for people in distress and how this should be achieved through a combination of environmental and practical considerations. Samuel encapsulated The Retreat’s methods and philosophy as ‘moral treatment’. Others became inspired to try this new form of therapy and the treatment of the insane became revolutionized.

For all the good The Retreat had done however, things took a turn for the worse in its later years. By the mid-1850s, and after Tuke’s death, changes were afoot. 1847 marked the first for-

mal appointment of a medical superintendent. Moral therapy was pushed aside and medication and hydrotherapy became the forefront of treatment and practices. After such a successful start, The Retreat was being converted to an asylum of the olden days. The Retreat expanded and the community ethos that served William Tuke so well was quickly forgotten. Quaker involvement was limited and the institute began to look unrecognizable from its early days. Statistics for The Retreat between 1880 and 1884 show that the majority of patients were non-Quaker and suffering from schizophrenia and mood disorders. Drug therapy was the common prescription and over a third of patients had a history of assaulting each other or the staff.

Everything Tuke had fought for was starting to unravel. The newly founded field of psychiatry contributed to this, with medicines becoming championed as the most effective treatment of the mentally ill.

William Tuke died in 1822 but he lived long enough to see the changes that The Retreat had started to bring about. Not only did Tuke have a defining role in influencing the shift to more moral treatment for the insane, he also inspired his family to follow in his footsteps.

His son Henry was the co-founder of The Retreat and Tuke’s grandson Samuel wrote an account of the work at The Retreat and its therapeutic practices along with the need for reform. In turn Samuel’s son James wrote the important treatise ‘A Manual of Psychological Medicine’ in 1858 and was a leading physician in the study of insanity.

William Tuke’s guiding hand influenced three generations of his fam25

ily, helping countless sufferers of mental illness along the way. Today The Retreat is a registered charity operating as an independent hospital with 100 beds, and has thankfully returned to its core principles.

It is still loyal to its original ethos and a number of the employees are from Quaker backgrounds. There are still no restraints used and no locked doors.

Health and Emotions AN INTERVIEW WITH MONA LISA SCHULTZ

ona Lisa Schulz (Dr. Mona Lisa) received her doctorate in behavioral neuroscience from Boston University School of Medicine in 1993. In addition to her extensive background in health and brain research, Dr. Schulz has been practicing medical intuitive since 1987. Dr. Schulz teaches us how to become aware of how our symptoms of illness are part of our intuition network, letting us know when something in our lives is out

of balance. Mado Martinez had an interview with her. They talked about emotions, the brain, health, illnesses, intuition and how all these things are connected by the power of your thoughts.

26

MM: What makes you the right person for understanding how emotions, the brain and health work?

ML: I used to work in a brain lab doing connections with certain areas of the brain.

However, in addition to going to medical school and becoming a physician and examining

emotional patterns that affected their capacity to get better or worse with medicines. And why couldn’t certain people why couldn’t you make them better with science?

Or with your understanding of brain pathways?

I have a PhD. I’m a doctorate scientist in brain connections. Why does that make me exquisitely skilled to understand Louise Hay’s affirmations [Editor Note: Louise Hay – Author So then, I got sick of the book ‘Heal Your - a bit like everyBody’]? Because, I body. There’s a understand the conphrase called nections between the ‘necessity is the right brain and the left, mother of invenbetween emotions, tion’, or, ‘when thoughts and behavior.

cine and science; it was affirmations that really helped put everything together. And it drove me crazy. I wanted to know how they worked.

your intellect is not available, your body speaks to you intuitively and lets you know what needs to change.

So, through epilepsy and narcolepsy I used to be asleep - I used to fall asleep, I used to have seizures, walk around and fall asleep, and it was so bad I used to fall asleep whilst skiing; I used to fall asleep sitting in the lab on a chair - I‘d fall off the chair. I even fell asleep while running and got hit by a truck! I know, it’s a long story, but anyway the point of the matter is: I’ve learned how to do readings knowing

only someone’s name and age. I could tell you what was going on in their emotional life that aggravated their health, and I used to do this in medical school to get them out of the hospital faster. So I wrote a book; ‘Awakening Intuition’ and, one of the things I did to get better from epilepsy was, this book fell off the shelf - ‘Heal your Body’.

And it has all these little ditzy, ditzy thought patterns so this drove me crazy, and though I did this and it helped me learn how to stop seizures with Chinese herbs, with anti-convulsives, with medi28

So. In medical intuition, there is science that suggests that, and so science actually supports Louise Hay’s mental causes and if you take all of these mental causes and you superimpose them on a chakra system they match medical intuition. That’s the key.

But it’s not just that, this isn’t just a flakey little book; there’s actually something to support it. And I wanted to always show that, so I walked up to Louise about 12 years ago and said ‘if you ever want to write a book and show that there’s science to support this, just let me know.’

But nonetheless, my point is that I’ve always wanted to show that you can heal your body, with medicine, intuition and affirmations. And that you need ALL of those things to heal.

And that science supports affirmations.

Just as much as science supports intuition.

Many people want to use affirmations but they think medicine is ridiculous, well THAT’S ridiculous: If your child breaks a leg, you’re not

going to say ‘Be spiritual! Suffer! Do some affirmations!’

That’s ridiculous! You’re going to want to do everything available. And so, just like going to the fruit market and saying ‘what kind of fruit have you got available here?’ When you go to the restaurant you say ‘show me the menu’.

that is available; ALL the things that are on the menu to make you healthy. That’s what this book is about.

This book; ‘All is Well’ [By Mona Lisa Schulz and Louise Hay], shows you everything

MM: Yes. Ok. Let’s talk about your book. I have read it and I have highlighted some questions. And, I know all the things that you have written but our readers, they don’t know the book, they haven’t read it yet and they don’t know anything about it yet. So they want to know: you’re a doctor and scientist - how can your emotions affect your body and your health?

ML: Tudo está bem’ – but has your emotions and OK. Tudo está bem.

If you’re angry, angry about work, or you’re near somebody else who’s angry, angry about work, and you can’t figure out how to process that it will go down into the area of the centre for work, and that anger will go to your adrenal gland and that adrenal gland - it’s a daisy chain!

Every illness is in-part due to genetics, the environment, diet, injury and so-on. But every illness could be precipitated by your feelings or intuitive awareness of somebody else’s.

MM: Something is wrong. It’s like an alarm?

ML: It’s like the dashboard in your car: You have a series of warning lights.

So just as if you had seven warning lights on your dashboard; one for family (oil); one for money (water); one for work (gas); one for electricity (heart - rela-

tionships, love); one for speech - you know, voice (thyroid), and so-on, each light will go on with a warning and with a symptom, letting you know that that area of your life: something’s wrong with it.

You need to name it;

respond effectively and then release it.

Otherwise the light will get worse and worse and worse and the symptom will get worse and worse and worse.

MM: You talk in your book about intuition and, how can a psychiatrist apply this intuition whilst doing his or her work? For example? Or a doctor?

ML: This is a book by a famous psychiatrist named Aaron Beck. He is the father of cognitive behavioral therapy.

‘CBT’. It is the classic,

state of the art way that people change thought patterns so that they can fix depression, anxiety, anger, obsessive compulsive disorder, 31

bipolar too, almost any disorder now people have cognitive behavioral therapy for.

They show on scans

that we use cognitive behavioral therapy. The other thing is there’s another kind of therapy called dialectic behavioral therapy, and that is

this: - and I’m getting to your intuition question - This is called ‘Skills Training for Borderline Personality Disorder’

by Marsha Linehan. It’s called DBT: Dialectical Behavioral Therapy. It

observe, describe what emotion is going on for you. What the hell do you think that is? For teaching people intuition! Plus this person who I think should get a Nobel Peace Prize (Her name is Marsha Linehan) she says that these people are raised in traumatizing, invalidating families. What’s invalidating - someone who sees something in a family and says it - look daddy’s coming home late is daddy having an affair with somebody?

No he’s not; shut up, your fathers a good man! That’s You’re brain) with left brain - invalidating. your thoughtful mind, invalidating what that child says and when to have a balance. that child intuitively The thing with all of gets a perception. this is this DBT teaches a person mindfulness. To be able to sit, teaches people how to do a skill called ‘wise mind’ based on mindfulness. Balancing your emotional mind (which is what I call right

32

MM: I see.

ML: No! What you see is wrong! She says those people develop post traumatic stress disorder and then they develop moodiness and volatile personalities, but she teaches them how to observe, describe, name your emotion, but learn how to say it

at the right time with the right people and not at the wrong time so basically she teaches you how to validate your perspective. But not abuse yourself with people who are invalidating. So as far as I’m concerned psychiatry helps people use

33

emotion to make correct decisions in their life. Dialectic Behavioral Therapy teaches you how to have emotional regulation: validate your emotion but learn how to effectively use it in relationships.

MM: Someone told me once – a psychologist – that if you think, if you make an exercise – you and me – and I tell you; ‘think about a red dinosaur’, you would just imagine it and you would see a red dinosaur, and then I say to you; ‘now think about a blue dinosaur’ - you think about the blue dinosaur and you see it inside your mind. Changing your thoughts is as easy as that – she said. And therefore if you change your thoughts you can change your emotions. Is it that easy?

ML: I’ve learned from behavioral neurology and neuro-psychiatry that the area for attention – for paying attention to something – it goes down to the temporal lobe and the hippocampus and the amygdala attach emotional relevance to it, so if you have a thought – someone puts an image in you - an image and a sound they say ‘red dinosaur’, right? And then they say ‘blue dinosaur’, and you image blue dinosaur.

The problem is is that what you’ve heard and seen – red and blue dinosaur – it goes to your

temporal lobe, but I ask you! Mado, you don’t have any behavioral relevance to blue or red dinosaur! So therefore it’s not hard for you to change from blue to red because it’s not behaviorally relevant to you.

It doesn’t do any spiking in your temporal lobe. It doesn’t change your amygdala AND it doesn’t do anything to your autonomic nervous system; it doesn’t do anything to your hypothalamus, your pituitary and your adrenal gland and ultimately your body because the word emotion, means to create movement. It 34

doesn’t move you like an opera could move you or a movie could move you. The words ‘red dinosaur’ do not move you.

However, if I said Mother: you had a bad Mother, imagine it. And then I said, you have a good Mother: that’s harder to do, because you have an emotional charge – it’s behaviorally relevant. You have a series of emotional connections and experiences – a network of connections to the word Mother. Because the first word that came out of your mouth was

‘Mo…Mottthhher’ and that initial word; ‘bad’ or ‘good’… it’s a single word, but it’s very hard to change from bad to good. It’s easier to

say ‘bu’, ‘bu’; than ‘gu’, ‘gu’ – I’m just telling you, phonetically – so, to change the thought from ‘bu’ to ‘gu’; bad mother to good mother

is much more difficult.

That’s why it’s hard for people to say; ‘I love myself just the way I am’.

MM: So it’s not that easy?

ML: Of course not! ‘I. LOVE. MYSELF. Just the way I am’. NO! Because you’ve said millions of times, you have the patterns in your brain, thought patterns all over the place: ‘I hate my hips. I hate my hips’.

‘I hate my hair! I wish I was…’ etc etc. You’ve heard it thousands of times! So you have to dilute that with ‘I love myself just the way I am’. Louise Hays says that every time you say that you might hear a

negative thought pattern; no you don’t. You hate your …. No you don’t. You hate your and that’s like a functional MRI as far as I’m concerned. Every time you say I love myself just the way I am and you hear a negative thought pattern it’s like doing a functional MRI. NO! Oh my God, I just picked another pathway! Another synapse.

So, you CAN change a thought but to say it’s easy is invalidating.

35

But I’m not saying it’s impossible. I’m saying it’s required. People say to me on the phone: ‘But that’s hard!’, I say ‘You can, and you will’.

You can and you will because the most valuable things are the ones that are hard to get.

They’re called commodities. That is a real commodity. You can and you will do this, or you don’t want to see me driving up your driveway! Because I will!

MM: And what would be one of best exercises to change that pattern?

Looking at yourself in the mirror and saying it?

ML: Failure, is much more frightening than regret.

Ok? This is the story.

So, RIGHT NOW is the moment that you can change. You can either think of yourself as ninety thousand years old – bitter! – Or you can use the moment

now, to try it! Because you have nothing to lose! So you can and you will do this. But it’s hard: ‘I’m afraid!’ So you’re afraid?! Nobody ever died of fear. You won’t die. You will try.

It’s painful. But you can tolerate it. You have 36

the skills. You can and you will do this. You will learn to do this with discipline. Because there are people who love you, and support you, and want you to do it.

MM: This takes me to another point. Ok, so we want to change, we want to change our patterns, we want to do it. So, suddenly – I read in your book like I read in Plato and the Oracle of Delphos and in the old Greek wisdom, that you have to know yourself. You have to explore yourself and you have to be aware of the things that are happening inside of you.

ML: That’s the intuition.

MM: Why is it so important and why does this have to be the very first step in life?

ML: Because. You’ll notice I never ask a direct question. Know yourself. Not somebody else. Because if you know somebody else you want to be them.

But if you know yourself you’ll want to be yourself so you want to love yourself just the way you are.

MM: You have talked about chakras and about meditation. It’s very important because, the happiest man in the world is Matthieu Ricard, a Tibetan monk. He’s the right hand of the Dalai Lama and he meditates all day long.

So neurosurgeons studied him in a laboratory and their conclusion was that he was the happiest man in the world. A man who is in a monastery in Tibet with no cars or anything and no women - not doing anything but meditating. Maybe, this is the solution?

ML: No. It’s his solution. It’s what his brain tells him is love. What moves to his left brain.

He identifies it and he responds to it affec-

tively and he releases it to the universe. That’s his love. If you tried to do that you’d be miserable. That’s what’s behaviorally relevant to him. Know thyself.

Not know thy monk.

You have to follow your bliss. Each one of us has a love. We have a bliss that we’re supposed to do. That’s just like saying I need to be like Madonna. I want to be like that monk.

What we can learn from that is not ‘do a monk’; but do you. You’ve got to do yourself. So, my point is that you go back to allowing yourself to do love. The answer to that is he 38

does what he loves all the time. If you can get into the flow of doing what you love all the time OR identifying love in every moment of your day: identifying love in this! Identifying love in this! Identifying love in every aspect of everything. Then your brain will be in the same way. It will be in your amygdala, in your hippocampus, in your frontal lobe, in your hypothalamus, pituitary, your adrenal gland - will all be in the nutrients of love.

History & Physics of Fire in the Blood The Origin of Bioelectric Negentropy by dAN wINTER website www.fractalfield.com

irst a background discussion. It is critical to understand how the electrical cause of centripetal, negentropic (conjugate/implosive) fields are absolutely essential to the nature of life, consciousness, and the path out of chaos in general.

The subject of this article is the electrical origin and history of negentropic (self organizing), centripetal (implosive) fields in blood (as in where does physics learn about ‘soul’).

Let us be clear- this is all related to the stupefying tragedy, caused 39

by earth’s physics community really not having a clue to the wave symmetry cause of any centripetal and negentropic field. This is why current physics also has no information as to why an object falls to the ground, or what electrical field causes life and mind and awareness. These are all phase conjugate and negentropic (self organizing) wave phenomenon. So if we were to survive as a species, wouldn’t you think that scientists - who clearly observed negentropy and self organization in phase conjugate optics - would at least admit to you that the absolute most important question in all of physics (how do waves emerge from chaos, and make life and mind and negentropy) desperately needed an answer? (As in - if you hadn’t noticed right now chaos seems to be winning.)

material makes a phase conjugate mirror work. The truth is the magic material which motorizes negentropy in phase conjugate mirrors, must be phase conjugate to Planck dimensions both at atomic, and molecular scales. (Again, the visual here for phase conjugation as a wave phenomenon is essentially two golden spiral pine cones ‘learning to kiss noses’ animated: www. goldenmean.info/grail )

No - those physicists also really have not a clue as to what a makes a phase conjugate mirror work. The ‘non-linear’ material question so artfully swept under the rug - they don’t know why certain 40

What is clear by measurementis that human consciousness is electrically centripetal and negentropic (Tiller: Measuring fields compress when exposed to attention, Dossey: Measuring seed growth accelerated when exposed to human attention, Geller: Measuring radioactive half life reduced by human attentionlike it is also reduced by phase conjugate dielectrics).

The illustrations of this principle I most likeare the numerous testimonials about roses popping open suddenly in the hand of a saint.

Centripetal fields are the essence of making bioactive healing charge(theimploder.com and pyraphi.com). We explained at length the wave mechanic origin of ‘Flame in the

Mind’ : how brainwaves in phase conjugate golden ratio frequency signature, combined with hemispheres 180 degrees out of phase, produce the compressional longitudinal field effect at fractalfield.com/ mindwave. This is the teachable, measureable brainwave pattern of all psycho kinesis, prayer, and how you create your immortal ‘kesjahn’/ ‘ka’(aura plasma coherence)your only vehicle through death (‘ka’ means boat to the underworld.)

species. Note especially the phase conjugate / negentropic hygiene which is associated with taking memory through death ( goldenmean.info/ immortality).

To the rest - your stubborn physicist community - who smugly ignore everything we have published about implosion, we send them appropriately to their karma: chaos and oblivion.

How human DNA participates in the broad spectral- implosive negentropic - phase conjugate pump wave. Summary: The recursive braiding golden ratio molecular geometry contributes to the mid range frequency component ( khz- mhz). Probably relates to the so-called psychokinetic measuring ‘BOSON 7’ or ‘Micro -chloridians in the blood’stories. Doing real power spectra of DNA to measure psycho kinesis/evolution is of course a political hot potato.

The implosive geometry of hydrogen - golden ratio proven orbits - at the DNA ladder rung core, contributes to the very high frequency phase conjugate component.

The low frequency phase conjugate component seems likely to be largely generated by the below 50 hz beautiful harmonic cascadesfrom the heart/brain during peak experience/coherent emotion/ bliss (much of my life’s work was on this). The EKG harmonic cascade during peak emotion appears to be a linear, octave based harmonic series which, however, seems to move closer to a conjugate .618 hz (key signature) during love/empathy etc. Whereas the EEG harmonic series, during bliss, psycho kinesis or projective plasma events, appears to take on a beautiful golden ratio: precisely phase conjugate harmonic series (see BLISSTUNER - at goldenmean.info/clinicalintro). In addition what may be even more beautiful, as we discuss in the frequency cascade graphic at the top of this article, the key signature ALPHA EEG frequency seems to lock on to the Schumann resonance (planetary embedding) which is also profoundly phase conjugate to Planck length and time (meaning precisely atomically implosive).

sion, for them the only form of life extension is a metal environment.

Stephen Hawking’s limited understanding represents a ‘ground-hog day’ ‘we’re going to have to repeat this mistake’ return to our soulless ancestors.

Instead of maximizing the negentropic field effect of a genetically diverse biosphere to create the ensouling negentropic charge implosion of nature, with the yoga lifestyle of charge attraction, these small minded, clueless to how DNA makes a soul types, would lead you down the literally dead-end path which took the Dracos (our part ancestors), and the Greys, to their dead, metal encased, soulless agony. Our past, and their soulless future does not have to be our future!

A bit of irony here that Enki (and his Caducceus conjugator sidekick Hermes/Thoth/Tehute DaWiD) Enki’s other name Nudimid - means ‘The Cloner’(see Anton Parks). Talk about finding your job description is the problem, instead of the solution! By becoming his father’s teamleading cloner, he discovered exactly how cloning was de-souling his bloodline, and offered the solution:

The result is: a plasma field around DNA which is psychokinetic, negentropic, time travelling, lucid dreaming and ensouled. These are all the things that our Nephalim, Draco, Uru and Annunaki ancestors precisely could not do. To - Enlil/ Yalweh and the soulless cloners, we send our condolences.

To the clueless Stephen Hawking approach in which he says stem cells are the key to immortality. What he doesn’t know is that phase conjugate dielectric (implosive charge) fields are the key to switching on and off stem cell behvaiour. What lies deeper beneath this is that the conjugate field of the stem cell, in order to have soul making context, requires exactly the opposite of what cloning offers in order to make the human plasma field actually immortal! So Stephen Hawkingwho sadly it appears is lacking the biological equipment to have a glandular bliss experience. So he advocates the soulless approach of the Nephalim and Draco. Of course those who choose a mechanical assisted form for metal life exten44

the Caducceus. In the physics of wave mechanics the Caducceus is the shape of a conjugate field. Naturally generated by DNA, in the right (blissful) biologic context the conjugate wave (so called ‘perfect storm’ rogue) - can propel our bioplasma aura

into the immortal. This becomes exactly the mechanism that makes Enki’s profession ‘The Cloner’, obsolete.

At death or bliss/ kundalini/tantra – moments this ‘KHEM unto the lord’ black hole

created by the phase conjugating genetic field- is DNA’s way of attempting plasma projection. If you throw the ball coherently it creates a plasma toroid which can be sustained.

It becomes the doorway through death to immortality depending on coherence, whose climax form is phase conjugate.

Here we shed more light on the archetypal concept: the Ba from the Ka. Translating the Egyptian concept- the Ka is the amount of coherence in your plasma aura enabling your ‘boat into the underworld’ and the Ba is squeezed out from the Ka like a seed from the husk. The Ba is the part of your plasma coherent aura which can and does survive implosive compression accelera45

This is where the human DNA experiment can outshine our Draco, Uru, Annunaki ‘anyone not cloned is illegal’ ancestors.

For an example of negentropic handedness (how the Vimana flew) when you pump high inertia mercury liquid in the correct toroid spiral trajectory to make gravity, (Star Trek impulse powder vs the Kowsky-Frost which was their warp power), the direction on the critical trajectory determines the polarity of the gravity (independent inertial field) created. This is how your heart propels your aura, before and after death!

human emotions like love and bliss to program DNA to implosive soul making is long wave piezoelectric braiding. Phase conjugate ‘pump waves’ from the frequency signature of EKG and EEG during love and bliss shareable wave emotions of pure intent, measurably causing implosive braid in DNA.

So it is my view that the structural and wave mechanic mechanism (low frequency phase conjugate ‘pump wave’) by which DNA implodes to become negentropic and ensouled, is now fairly well understood. Consider a probable solution to why DNA- is enantiomorphic: the necessary asymmetric handedness of all biologic proteins. The direction of rotation on the surface of a torus determines whether the net gravity created is centripetal or centrifugal (similar to why one pole of a magnet is more centripetal and healing than the other the physics of yin/yang).

Biologic proteins have to go one way only, so that the phase direction of the phase conjugate pump waves in DNA helixes (Schumann to EKG cascades of bliss emotion), will be 47
