It is vibes after all .....

Barbara and I were having lunch together and she made the comment that she just realized how precious our senses were. She became aware of some of our friends who had trouble seeing, hearing, smelling and tasting. My answer to that was that our senses are what make us conscious of our time and space reality. In controlled experiments, people deprived of their senses, all five at once, undergo strange and bizarre reactions in their minds and perhaps if left would have become insane.

Our senses all respond to vibrations, but vibrations of different frequencies. Our sense organs act like receiving stations for these vibrations and the neuronal system transmits these signals to the brain for processing. It would appear that all living organisms process these signals in the same way. This then activates the chemicals, perhaps in the reticular activating system(RAS) and calls for the organism to an action of flight or fight. Except in the case of humans.

Humans appear to have a higher level way of processing these experiences to give them meaning or value. In other words, not all pain is "bad" but that the pain may serve a higher purpose. For example the process of giving birth. The mother tolerates the pain with full knowledge that (1) it will be over soon and (2) that it will result in the goal of the process started, in most cases deliberately, nine months ago. And (3) humans can choose not to undergo this pain at all with the use of birth control. Animals respond to their hormone systems and have at least limited choice in the matter to say the least.

So it is in the areas of creativity, imagination and intuition where humans are better at processing the vibrations from the surrounding environment even tho the basic sensory machinery is the same.

The thought occurred to me that if we are receiving stations for vibratory phenomena then perhaps we can also be broadcasting stations as well. We run into this in Astrology quite a bit. Folks want to know (1) what is my purpose in life and (2) who or where is my soul-mate. Purpose in life is something that Astrology can help with most assuredly, but soul-mate.... well that is another proposition. When the Astrologer compares the horoscopes of two people the points of resonance can certainly be identified if they are there at all. And that information can then be used to explain any attraction between the two.
