ON-GOING SCIENTIFIC DISCOVERY OF
SENSORY
RECEPTORS WHICH
ACCOUNT FOR MANY SUBTLE PERCEPTIONS

[NOTE: The following is a reworked version of a
paper I was invited to present on 21 March 1994 at the United Nations on behalf
of the Society for Enlightenment and Transformation (SEAT).] SEAT is a

[The original title of the paper was YOUR SEVENTEEN SENSES -
THE CRUMBLING MAINSTREAM RESISTANCE OF THE PARANORMAL AND NEW SCIENTIFIC
CONFIRMATION REGARDING THE EXISTENCE OF CERTAIN PSI FACULTIES. This original
paper consisted of two major topics: (1) the major characteristics of 20th
century mainstream resistance to psi faculties; and (2) recent scientific
advances which now substantiate the existence of those faculties. For the
purpose of this document I have separated the two topics and will integrate the
substance of the first one in a forthcoming essay regarding the anti-psychic
mindsets of the twentieth century. This present document focuses on new
scientific confirmation regarding the existence of certain psi faculties. The
elements presented in the 1994 paper are germane in today's larger picture of
human consciousness development and have increased in meaning regarding the near

NEW SCIENTIFIC DISCOVERIES
REGARDING
THE EXISTENCE OF CERTAIN PSI FACULTIES
Synopsis of a paper presented on 21 March
1994 at the United Nations
to members of the Society for Enlightenment and
Transformation
Ingo Swann
How many of you here today would like to know you
have at least SEVENTEEN senses rather than just five of them? How many think
that seventeen would be better than just five? How many of you here already know
that you have more than five senses?
When Mohammed Ramadan and Clarence
Robins asked me to come here and talk about something, we had a little
difficulty deciding upon a topic worthy of your interest. Finally it dawned on
me that there exists what we might call a Particular Situation regarding psychic
or metaphysical perceptions and it was decided that the nature of this Situation
should be presented.
*
This Particular Situation consists of three aspects
or parts.
FIRST: During the modern past, the real existence of psi
faculties was rejected within science, psychology and psychiatry. The rejection
was based in a number of factors which seemed rational and logical in the
scientific past and thus achieved wide acceptance in scientific, academic and
media mainstreams of the twentieth century.
SECOND: Those factors which
seemed rational and logical in the past have now been superseded by significant
scientific discoveries and advances which substantiate the real existence of at
least certain psi faculties. Some of these discoveries are now fifty years old.
These new discoveries absolutely require a swift and large-scale reevaluation
not only regarding psi faculties in particular, but with regard to the larger
scope and subtle functions and transformation of human
consciousness.
THIRD: However, in spite of the notable scientific
advances which affirm the real existence of psi faculties, this necessary and
advisable reevaluation is NOT underway in the three important mainstreams - and
which mainstreams continue to support, adhere to, and proliferate the now
out-dated concepts which, in a broad cultural sense, permitted the past,
absolute rejection of psi faculties.
*
There is one outcome of this Particular Situation,
and which can be described by a term frequently used within United Nations
parlance, a term familiar to me as a past employee of the Secretariat. It is
used in many United Nations documents.
The outcome referred to is that if
the past rationales which permitted the rejection of psi continue to be
proliferated by mainstream pressures, then the scientific advances which
substantiate the real existence of certain psi faculties must be ignored or
pushed into the shadow of unawareness.
Thus, the discoveries CANNOT and
WILL NOT be integrated into advancing scientific thought, academic tutoring and
fair media representation. And in this suppressed or hidden state, the
discoveries cannot be integrated into the overall goals of the Society for
Enlightenment and Transformation which I have the honor of addressing
today.
The well-used, sometimes over-used United Nations term for this
kind of situation is "deplorable" - and so the Particular Situation I have
outlined above is, well, deplorable. After all, advances in scientific discovery
are supposed to vitalize enlightenment and transformation if they are made
openly accessible. But when such discoveries are ignored, they cannot contribute
to much of anything.
*
Because of the Particular Situation I've outlined
above, most people are not aware that significant scientific advances HAVE been
made regarding substantive support for the real existence of a number of psi
faculties.
Many scientific papers have been published regarding the
discoveries. But because of the Particular Situation these remain ignominiously
dispersed through the various literatures and their implications are not
enthusiastically reviewed or endorsed in formal scientific, academic or media
forums.
*
Messieurs Mohammad Ramadan and Clarence Robins, both
indefatigable workers on behalf of enlightenment and transformation, agreed that
I should attempt to present at least a nut-shell overview of the developments
which have not at all yet been socially permitted to reach down into
transformative social consciousness.
*
To enter into this overview, it is first necessary to
set the stage as to why psi faculties were rejected in the scientific past.
A historical review of the phenomena of rejection of psi shows that
there were multiple reasons for it. In their modern sense, some of these reasons
reach back at least three centuries.
Some of the reasons had to do with
simple matters of tolerance and intolerance both at the individual and social
levels. But others had to do with what was to be established as acceptable or
unacceptable knowledge at politico-social levels. Others had to do with what was
to be accepted as normal or abnormal social and mental behavior, especially as
regards the first six decades of the twentieth century.
*
The larger historical overview of the rejection thus
presents a fairly complicated picture, one which is difficult to
negotiate.
In modern scientific terms, however, the major thrust of the
rejection was early consolidated within the concepts of philosophical
materialism which came to govern early modern scientific overviews and
expectations.
As a philosophical commitment, then, the early modern
sciences held that whatever constituted scientific reality had to have a
physical basis in matter, in the material. And so the consolidation of the
rejection of psi was straightforward and simple: That psi could not be accepted
until a quantifiable, material-physical basis for it, or any part of it, was
identified.
*
What this meant in simple terms was that the human
could ONLY access information for which physical receptors could be shown to
exist. The five physical senses were based in the physical tactile mechanisms
which resulted in the sensations of sight, hearing, tasting, smelling, and
touch. But psychic information could not be attributed to any of these, since
all of them functioned only within the local environments of the physical
body.
As a general result, the existence of additional senses was denied,
both scientifically and philosophically, and it was this denial which resulted
in the Five-Senses-ONLY theory which was pervasively proliferated throughout
modernist societies.
This scientific principle, for it indeed functioned
as one, thus served as the rationale and logic for the rejection of psi
faculties. I.e., no physical receptors for those faculties were expected to be
scientifically discovered. So the on-going rejection of psi faculties was
considered justified.
*
It is worth pointing up something here which has
dropped out of modernist thinking. Anthropologists have established that in
general pre-modern societies did not think in terms of having SENSES. As we
might put it in today's computer lingo, they thought more in terms of accessing
information or knowledge and achieving perception appropriate to them.
The conversion of the concept of accessing information to the concept of
having senses appears to have occurred only AFTER the European Renaissance
period. Indeed, it can quite easily be shown that most of the major thinkers of
the Renaissance were profoundly preoccupied regarding HOW to increase and
stimulate the accessing of information.
*
Thus, the concept that we are dependent on our
physical senses rather than dependent on accessing information dates from AFTER
the seventeenth century - while the concept of accessing information is at least
6,000 years old.
In this light, the idea that we access information only
via our five physical senses IS modern. The concept that we are completely
limited to what we perceive by the physical five dates from only about 1845, and
was from the outset solely a scientific hypothesis which has never been
demonstrated by conclusive scientific fact.
*
Nevertheless, the hypothesis that human awareness is
limited to the five physical senses has been a very powerful one within
modernist philosophical and scientific contexts. So powerful, indeed, that early
modern scientists never expected to discover the existence of bio-physical
receptors additional to the famous five.
Information derived from other
than the physical five senses was thought to be impossible, at least in theory.
And it was upon this theory that psychic information, so-called, was
scientifically rejected.
Indeed, many leading scientists between 1845
and about 1960 let it be known that there was "one scientific demand" which
would never be fulfilled: the discovery of bio-physical receptors which would
account for psychic information. So, scientific brotherhoods united around the
conviction that until physical receptors for psychic information were
discovered, then the information should be considered as illusory or
psychopathological in origin.
*
Early psychical researchers and later
parapsychologists of course protested this rejection based solely on this "one
demand" of science. They indicated that if psi faculties were purely
psychological in origin and nature, then no bio-physical receptors would ever be
found.
However, by the same turn-around of the scientific argument
against the real existence of psi, should physical receptors for accessing
so-called psychic "information" be discovered, then science proper would be
obliged to accept that its one demand was fulfilled.
*
What has just been presented has long been
characterized as the "conflict" between science and parapsychology. This
conflict has often been distorted to include other factors. But the basic factor
clearly and unambiguously hinged on the absence of bio-physical receptors which
would account for the subtle kinds of information so-called "psychics" deal
with.
In parapsychological parlance, this kind of information came to be
called "extra-sensory" or "non-sensory." These two terms unambiguously
demonstrate that psychical researchers and parapsychologists themselves did not
consider that bio-physical receptors for psychic information would ever be
discovered.
*
And it is from this context that the basic definition
of "psychic" is derived: i.e., lying outside of matter, physicality, the
physical sciences or knowledge of the physical universe.
*
There is now a very interesting aspect to this
conflict which should be pointed out because it has great bearing on later
developments.
If the conflict is dissected carefully, it reveals that
scientists, psychical researchers, or parapsychologists expected that any
bio-physical basis for psi faculties would be discovered.
Indeed, early
psychical researchers looked for supernatural explanations outside of any
materialistic basis. By their own name, paraPSYCHOLOGISTS clearly opted for a
psychological explanation, not a bio-physical one. And there is no evidence at
all in the parapsychological literature that parapsychologists invested any time
either theorizing or researching for a bio-physical
explanation.
*
This is to say, that any possible bio-physical
explanation was, and is, just as alien to parapsychology as it was to the
material sciences proper.
*
Here matters rested - until the first
electron-microscope was developed in Germany in 1932, and later evolved in the
United States and Canada. After World WAR II, cellular biology underwent a great
jump in importance because of the electron-microscope and even more penetrating
and precise later technical advances.
Now began the slow process of
comprehending that biological cells were not the simplistic things once thought.
Rather, they were composed of ultra-minute factors which functioned in very
remarkable ways.
*
Also, during the 1930s another development occurred
which was to have enormous importance and impact, an impact which is yet in
progress today.
The fact that biological organisms have some kind of
electromagnetic substrate was discovered about 300 years ago. But this substrate
was considered weak and unimportant in the face of the chemical substrate which
was thought to be very strong.
During the 1930s, however, researchers in
various parts of the world, and especially in the former Soviet Union, began to
realize that although the electromagnetic substrate was "weak" it nonetheless
played very important roles within the bio-chemical whole of ALL biological
organisms.
*
Advances in bio-electromagnetism were somewhat
delayed, however, until appropriate technology could be invented to deal more
adequately with subtle bio-energy forms. The technology began to be available
during the 1960s, and by the late 1970s the extraordinary importance of the
bio-electromagnetic substrate could begin to be seen.
*
A meaningful factor, somewhat amusing, now needs to
be introduced, one with which most people are probably not familiar.
Science and technology are often thought of going hand in hand. But this
is often not the case. The nearly invisible reason is that the
technically-minded and the scientifically-minded don't appear to be the same
kind of thinkers.
*
Largely speaking, scientists are more likely to be
theoreticians. But technicians are more likely to be engineers.
Scientists theorize and try to test their theories. But technicians
build things, often just to see what the things can do. Indeed, technical
advances can often be several generations AHEAD of scientific thinking. This is
certainly the case with the computer industry evolved largely by
technician-types, not by scientists. Indeed, many technological advances have
been achieved by technologists who possessed little in the way of legitimate or
conventional scientific backgrounds.
*
The bottom line of all these developments is that during
the last forty years a very large series of new research disciplines have come
into existence. These new disciplines constitute an intermixing of science,
technology, microscopy, subtle chemical exchanging, and electromagnetic and
bio-electromagnetic expertise.
Ahead I give a partial list of these new
disciplines. But the punch line here is that it was left to these NEW
disciplines to increasingly discover (much to their surprise!) the expanding
bio-organic basis for many faculties once merely thought questionably
"psychic."
*
There is only one impediment regarding an integration
of these new disciplines with psychical and parapsychological research. This
involves the new nomenclature being evolved with these new disciplines.
The new nomenclature is as alien to science as it is to parapsychology,
and at present both these venerable institutions are having difficulty
integrating it both conceptually and contextually. I will show many examples of
this ahead.
*
But beyond this little difficulty, there is no doubt
that many of the advances being made in those new disciplines can be "married"
to many otherwise well-known psychic faculties - as I will demonstrate at the
end of this paper.
*
At this point, I can't resist making one sardonic
comment. Earlier in this paper I have complained about the lack of scientific
and popular integration of the implications of these new discoveries.
But there is one group that has taken adequate and accurate interest in
these astonishing discoveries and which seems to be more or less up to date
regarding them. This group consists of the producers and scriptwriters of the TV
series STAR TREK and similar offshoots.
*
The new and now on-going discoveries of biological
bases for many psi faculties is now best expressed, perhaps, as PARABIOLOGY,
meaning "beyond" past conventional concepts of biology.
Or, perhaps, the
term PARAPSYCHOBIOLOGY is convenient - which, if translated into Russian, would
become the term translated back into English as bio-communications or
bio-information transfer.
*
So far, the new discoveries regarding the biological
bases for psi faculties roughly fall into five categories. I have to get a
little technical here, but I'll simplify just ahead.
These five general
categories are:
- Minute chemical receptors and sensors
- Minute chemico-electro receptors and sensors
- Neural-network exchanges of information in the
bio-internal body substrates
- Bio-electromagnetic information receptors and
sensors
- Bio-information transfer networks at the atomic,
molecular, and neurological levels
*
If these new terms are somewhat confusing, well don't
worry too much.
They simply mean that we are FAR BEYOND the
five-senses-only fallacy and that our bio-mind bodies have multitudes of
exceptional senses by way of delicate systems of receptors and sensors at the
cellular, nervous, chemical and bio-electromagnetic levels and their
interfaces.
A nice way to conceive the whole of this is to comprehend
that every cell, possibly every atom, in our bio-physicality is a receptor or
sensor of some kind.
In other words, we are walking, talking, eating,
defecating ARRAYS of exquisitely elegant and sophisticated receptors and
sensors. ALL of these receptors and sensors are busy ACCESSING information - and
knowledge, IF what is accessed can be organized into recognizable thinking
patterns.
*
By extended meaning, these delicate systems of
receptors can also integrate with our normal five - and, given adaptive learning
regarding them, can also integrate with our mental cognitive powers - to result
in, yes, what have otherwise generally been called "psi
faculties."
*
Now, to give you here some broad idea of the
cutting-edge, largely technical disciplines involved, I'll quickly read through
a list of twenty-one of them:
Electro-chemical physiology
Neurobiology
Neurobiology
Neuropsychology
Bio-radiation studies
Hormone and Hormonal transmission
research
Chemical signal research
Bio-electric research
Brainwave research
Bio-sensitivity research
Bio-electric information transfer
research
Sensory coding research
Bio-magnetic navigation research
Bio-electronic systems research
Bio-electric field detection
research
Electrophysiological studies
Pheromone and pheromone transfer
research
Multi-stability in perception
research
Subliminal perception research
Neuro-magnetic response research
Bio-infrared and bio-ultraviolet perception
research
*
At this point, I could adumbrate upon more than a
thousand scientific papers about these discoveries published in the science
literature, even in the esteemed leading science periodicals such as NATURE,
SCIENTIFIC AMERICAN and DISCOVER.
The authors of those papers, though,
never use the terms psi, psychic, or parapsychology, etc., since the mere
introduction of them would cause their papers to be rejected.
The
editors and peer-review systems of such publications apparently don't realize,
for example, that "bioinformation transfer over distance" means about the same
thing as "telepathy" and/or "clairvoyance," or "remote viewing." But this is
merely part of the Particular Situation I referred to at the beginning of this
talk.
*
I now hold up in my hand before you, so you can see
that it really exists, a book published in 1984 via Simon & Schuster, by
Robert Rivlan and Karen Gravelle. This book is complete with bibliography of
scientific sources, but is easy to read. It's entitled, somewhat misleadingly,
as DECIPHERING THE SENSES: THE EXPANDING WORLD OF HUMAN PERCEPTION.
Well,
the world of human perception is NOT expanding. Rather, ignorance of that world
is shrinking a little.
The book might have been called something like THE
DISCOVERY OF THE BIOLOGICAL BASIS FOR PSI AND OTHER ANOMALOUS
PERCEPTIONS.
*
The discoveries brought together and presented in
this book, although in popular style, are based on hard scientific discoveries
that have been achieved in other disciplines outside and independent of
parapsychology.
And, as such, the sum of them clearly fulfills - at least
regarding certain forms of psi - the earlier scientific demand that a
bio-organic basis for psi be discovered.
*
I'll quote from the book's fly-leaf; "For centuries
we have used an oversimplified and inaccurate model to explain the human senses.
Even now, high school biology classes still teach the `five senses'. But recent
scientific research has discovered that there are many more than five senses,
and these discoveries have radically changed our understanding of what the
senses are and how they work. Rivlan and Gravelle redefine for the general
reader the spectrum of human perceptions from the normal to the newly discovered
to the extra-sensory."
As chapter one indicates, the book discusses "The
seventeen senses" additional to our usual five ones, and then goes on to place
the newly-discovered senses in context with the usual five. The authors consume
eight chapters to prepare the reader - before they reach chapter 9, entitled
"Extra-sensory perception." Probably because of this chapter, the book was now
well-received and is now out of print. But it's well worth tracking down a copy
of it.
*
Now, lest there be some misunderstanding here, the
two authors are NOT describing psychological or mental functions.
They
are discussing the actual existence within our biology of minute
physical-chemical-bioelectromagnetic "receptors" and "sensors" that interact
within networks of the "information-processing resources of the
organism."
It is quite easy to ascertain that five senses are obviously
NOT ENOUGH to account for the huge range of sensory possibilities of which the
human species is capable, while seventeen senses is probably a more accurate
count, with more probably yet to be discovered.
No one can survive very
well on just five senses. Just ask any seafarer, mountain climber, football or
basketball player, explorer or inventor, martial arts exert, or even someone
seeking sex. The moment "automatic reflexes" or "intuitive" stuff enters into
their talk, know that you have departed the realm of the physical five and
entered into the realms of additional senses.
*
As to what these seventeen new senses are. The
seventeen new senses interact with each other to provide a rather extensive
list, many of which have in the past been referred to as "psychic." Since we
don't have time here to go through them, I've brought a few copies of that list
to hand out, along with some copies of this lecture, and all of which you are
free to duplicate.
But, for example, the bio-body is now known to have a
functioning vomeronasal system containing receptors enabling, at the
bio-subliminal level, the detection of minute amounts of chemical signals that
tell us about anther's sexual receptivity, fear, anger, and other emotions - an
aptitude more commonly referred to as "psychic vibe-sensing."
In another
category, through the use of a newly invented device called the SQUID,
scientists can and have measured and begun to classify the brain's electrical
activity outside of the scalp -
Which in turn has led to discoveries that
bio-electric activity extends to some distance beyond the skin -
Which
in turn has led to the discovery of bio-electric sensors not only in the skin,
but in the neuropeptide activity that transmits all kinds of subtle senses
information through the immune system and into the brain - and back again into
the body's extremities and all its internal organs, including into its
surrounding bio-electromagnetic field.
*
Now, discovered bio-electromagnetic fields extending
outside the scalp and outside of the skin clearly equate to the "auras" that
many clairvoyants have specialized in "seeing."
Drawing on authoritative
scientific sources, Rivlan and Gravelle even hypothesize that, and I quote,
"thoughts may, indeed, have wings, and some of us may have the ability to sense
what others are thinking" via these newly discovered bio-electromagnetic
receptor-sensing networks.
The two authors wonder: "Do some psychics and
mystics have this ability, vastly magnified, so they can sense the electricity
from considerable distances?" Well, there would have been no question of this in
antiquity - or even among Arabian or Mongolian nomads today, as well as
"street-smart" New Yorkers.
*
Actually, this is the same question that those
researching electromagnetism and bio-electromagnetism have been wondering about
for over fifty years.
So it's worth pointing up here that the existence
of extensive bio-electromagnetism essentially was demonstrated late during the
last century, but its existence has not figured very much either into scientific
psychology or in scientific parapsychology - both of these two field having
managed mutually to ignore it altogether.
*
Did you know that in addition to yourself being a
bio-meat body with eyes, livers, hearts, and appetites of various kinds, you are
also a bio-electronic one? Have you ever thought of yourself as such? If you
begin to, well, something interesting might begin to happen.
Dr. Robert
O. Becker is one of the leading researchers in the United States regarding
electromagnetism and bio-electromagnetism. With Gary Selden, he published, in
1985, a book entitled THE BODY ELECTRIC: ELECTROMAGNETISM AND THE FOUNDATION OF
LIFE (William Morrow, New York), and which "tells the story of our bioelectric
selves."
A companion book is Harold Saxton Burr's BLUEPRINT FOR
IMMORTALITY: THE ELECTRIC PATTERNS OF LIFE (Neville Spearman, London, 1973,
republished 1988). Burr, by the way, is an American researcher but could not
find an American publisher for this seminal book.
*
Bob Becker has made many unequivocal statements
regarding the psi implications of bio-electromagnetism.
For example, he
published in PSYCHOENERGETIC SYSTEMS, 1977, Vol. 2, pp. 189-196, an article
entitled "An Application of Direct Current Neural Systems to Psychic Phenomena."
He stated that "The concept of a primitive electronic communication system in
all living things can be a useful tool in understanding both `normal' and
`paranormal' phenomena that have lacked a rational biological explanation.
Indeed, it appears that human beings are tied to the universe in a web of
electromagnetic energy."
*
At this point, I believe I've now presented for you
consideration the rudiments of the Particular Situation I referred to at the
beginning.
The Particular Situation consists of three factors:
(1) science demanded that a bio-organic explanation for psi faculties be
found before it could accept them as real;
(2) bio-organic explanations
have been found for many kinds of psi faculties; and
(3) everyone seems
to be ignoring both the facts and the implications of (2) as just stated.
*
As to more of what our additional senses are:
Did you know that the soles of your feet and the palms of your hands
contain minute magnetic receptors and sensors that "recognize" minute and gross
changes in local magnetism?
Here are the rudiments of dowsing, healing,
and various rough forms of psychometry which means psyching-out what something
is by merely holding it.
Alas, though. If you haven't built neural
pathways linking these sensors to your cognitive faculties, you probably won't
be able to sense what the receptors in the soles of your feet picking
up.
*
In bringing this talk to a conclusion, recall that
earlier I mentioned the problem of the nomenclature which is acting as a barrier
between the new discoveries and more recognizable concepts of psychical and
parapsychological research. This same nomenclature is also acting as a barrier
between the new research and the problems of enlightenment and transformation
which are the objectives of this Society for Enlightenment and Transformation.
To help begin the nomenclature bridge, I'd now like to give some
examples by which the two nomenclatures can be compared.
Recently Discovered Bioorganic Basis
for
the Following Additional Senses
1. Receptors in the nose sensing systems that "smell"
emotions, and that can identify motives, sexual receptivity, antagonism,
benevolence, etc. (All these are formats of what are commonly referred to as
psychic vibe-sensing.)
2. Receptors in the ear sensing systems that
detect and identify differences in pressure and electromagnetic frequencies
(formats of ESP.)
3. Skin receptors that detect balance and imbalance
regarding what is external to the bio-body, even external at some astonishing
distances (formats of remote-sensing, a mixed form of ESP and
clairvoyance.)
4. Skin receptors that detect motion outside of the body,
even when the body is asleep (a format of subliminal ESP.)
5. Directional
finding and locating receptors in the endocrine and neuropeptide systems
(formats of dowsing, intermixed with formats of cognitive ESP or
intuition.)
6. Whole-body receptors, including hair, that identify
fluidic motions of horizontal, vertical, diagonal, even if not visually
perceived (as, for example, in the "psychic" portion of the martial art of
Akhido.)
7. Skin receptors that "recognize" the temperament of other
biological organisms (a format of psi "reading".)
8. Subliminal sensory
systems which locate and identify pitch of sound, a sense of heat across great
distances, a sense of frequencies and waves, either mechanical or energetic (all
being formats of ESP and vibe-sensing, sometimes also referred to as "shaman
perceiving.")
9. Receptors that identify positive and negative charged
particles at the atomic level. (The term utilized for this in psychical research
is "micro-psi" but which is rare. However, it has been convincingly
demonstrated, especially in the case of C. W. Leadbeater who published Occult
Chemistry (1908). Thirty years before the invention of the electron-microscope
he correctly described sub-atomic particles, many undiscovered at the time, but
discovered since. Micro-psi faculties are mentioned as one of the ancient Sidhis
of ancient India (see, for example, Yoga Sutras of Patanjali).)
10.
Microsystem transducing of various forms of mechanical, chemical, and
electromagnetic energy into meaningful nerve impulses (all commonly thought of
as FORMS OF ESP.)
11. Receptors that sense gravitational changes (a form
of PSYCHIC DOWSING.)
12. Neurological senses for interpreting modulated
electronic information by converting it into analog signals for mental storage,
interpretation, and cognition (one of the bio-mind bases for
TELEPATHY.)
13. Bio-electronic receptors for sensing radiation, including
X-rays, cosmic rays, infrared radiation, and ultraviolet light, all of these
receptors being found in the retina of the eye (part of the basis for various
forms of CLAIRVOYANCE.)
14. Receptors that respond to exterior electrical
fields and systems (producing forms of CLAIRVOYANCE and AURA
"READING.")
Today, the following highly specialized sensing systems are
referred to in the new sciences as HUMAN SEMAPHORE CAPACITIES.
15. Skin
receptors for sensing perceptions of bonding or antagonism (thought of as forms
of INTUITION.)
16. Senses for non-verbal "language" communicating
(thought as a form of TELEPATHY or VIBE-SENSING.)
17. Combined sensing
systems (neural networks) for making meaning out of at least 130 identified
nonverbal physical gestures and twenty basic kinds of nonverbal messages
(thought of as INTUITIONAL CHARACTER ASSESSMENT or a particular form of
CLAIRVOYANCE.)
18. Receptors that trigger alarm and apprehension before
their sources are directly perceived (a particularly valuable type of PSYCHIC
FORESIGHT, FORESEEING, INTUITION.)
19. Sensing systems for registering
and identifying nonverbal emotional waves (a form of INTUITION and/or TELEPATHY
or CLAIRVOYANCE.)
The following are now known to be associated with the
PINEAL GLAND if it is healthy and in good working order.
20. Senses and
memory-stores cycles of light and darkness, anticipating them with accuracy as
the daily motions of the sun and moon change (a kind of PSYCHIC FORECASTING or
FUTURE SEEING.)
21. Senses and responds to solar and lunar rhythms, solar
disruptions (flares, sunspots) and moon-caused tidal changes (water or
geophysical ones), and can sense "coming" earthquakes and storms (a form of
PREDICTIVE ESP especially noted in sailors, farmers, but also in cows, dogs,
cats, and snakes.)
22. If the pineal gland is fully functional, it acts
as a nonvisual photo-receptor (the psychic equivalent being "X-RAY
VISION.")
*
The following senses or sensing systems are similar
to some already mentioned, but they appear to function upon a completely
different basis and are additional those senses already mentioned.
It is
now thought that this basis is almost certainly the WATER contained in the
bio-body, in the physical components of the nerve systems, and the physical part
of the brain.
It is not yet understood how WATER is used this way to
create a fluidic but elaborate series of interconnected sensing systems.
One of the best guesses, yet to be established, is that the vibrations
of the water molecules link together throughout the entire bio-body and form the
equivalent of radar or sonar antennae.
These liquid antenna sensing
systems appear to detect the following categories. Divided by categories, they
can be thought of as individualized and highly refined sensing systems. All of
these categories have been thought of as PSYCHIC, ESP, CLAIRVOYANT, or INTUITIVE
- which is to say, been thought of as unexplainable and hence
impossible.
23. Sense of non-visual wave motions.
24. Sense of
non-visual oscillating patterns.
25. Sense of magnetic fields.
26.
Sense of infrared radiation.
27. Sense of electrical energy.
28.
Sense receptors for local AND distant sources of heat. (This is an unnamed PSI
faculty, but one familiar to Amerindians.)
29. Sense of
geo-electromagnetic pulses, magnetic fields, especially biological ones (psychic
equivalents unidentified and unnamed.)
30. Although the mechanisms are
not at all understood, the liquidic sensing detectors apparently are somehow
involved in the remote sensing of anything at a distance, however great. The
results, of course, are remote viewing, remote hearing, remote tasting, and so
forth.
*
Finally (although there is no "finally" here), we
come to sensory systems' receptors spread throughout the entire bio-body, and
which apparently feed information into the mind-body interface (if "interface"
would be the correct concept.)
31. Whole-body receptors (millions of
them) to detect pheromones, sexual receptivity, fear, love, admiration, danger,
pain in others, intentions in others, etc., (all formerly thought of as
inexplicable forms of ESP or so-called VIBE-SENSING and/or PSYCHIC
`READING".)
Please note that the list above
is not complete and is presently in
process
of being extended.
*
With the invention of the electron microscope in the
early 1930s, large amounts of data had accumulated by the 1950s which
irrevocably substantiated that the human being possessed very many more senses
than only the infamous physical five.
*
As of the late 1950s, then, there was no longer any
justifiable reason to continue teaching and emphasizing the five physical
senses.
And, as well, there was no longer any justifiable reason to
continue the mainstream debunking of so-called psychic perceptions - because
bio-mind receptors have been located and confirmed for a lot of them.
*
During the 1960s and 1970s, the scientific
information pool of this kind of discovery had increased enormously - the sum of
which brought a complete end to the concept of the five physical senses
only.
A "complete end" at least in a scientific sense. But not in a
cultural sense - because the meaning of these sensory discoveries is still being
completely ignored in the cultural and ideological milieus, even though
technical and popular books became available.
*
One of the better, more easy-to-read technical books
was SENSATION AND PERCEPTION: AN INTEGRATED APPROACH, by H.R. Schiffman, John
Wiley & Sons, New York, 1976. This book is still invaluable today, and
provides an extensive bibliography of sources.
As already noted, perhaps
the best popular book, certainly very easy to read, was DECIPHERING THE SENSES:
THE EXPANDING WORLD OF HUMAN PERCEPTION, by Robert Rivlan and Karen Gravelle,
Simon and Schuster, New York, 1984. The first chapter of this book identifies
and discusses SEVENTEEN SENSES, and also has a competent bibliography updating
the one found in the Schiffman book.
*
Both of these books, as well as others, were almost
completely ignored, and the conviction that we possess only five physical senses
continues to hold sway today.
You see, it is possible to conclude that
these books were ignored because they tended toward encouraging people to take
justified interest in their extended sensory systems, and perhaps to begin
unfolding them.
*
Today there is no justification at all for the
continuation of anti-psychic belief systems. There is no justification to teach
that we have ONLY five physical senses, and there is every justification to
teach that we have very many others.
There is also no justification to
continue suggesting that there is a difference between sensory and extra-sensory
perceptions and information. The discoveries regarding our numerous senses and
sensing systems obliterated the boundaries which, in the uninformed past, tended
to artificially separate them.
Instead, we need to think more basically in terms of
INFORMATION. It is information that is important, regardless of the manner in
which it is acquired, or via which sensory systems are utilized to do
so.
*
To help more fully integrate the information
presented in this paper, I'm obliged to point up something which, to my
knowledge, has not been considered elsewhere.
If we think only in terms
of senses and/or sensing systems, then in very subtle ways we may be
distinguishing between them and ourselves. It is true that we do "have" or
"possess" senses and sensing systems. But something else is also true, and it is
very important that it should be grasped.
*
We ARE our sensing systems. And what we call "WE" or
"US" or "SELF" is in some full part neither no more nor no less than our sensing
systems are acknowledged, developed, and utilized. Since we ARE our sensing
systems, the full nature and realization of them must in some direct sense be
completely meaningful to the overall goals of this important Society for
Enlightenment and Transformation.
In closing here, please note that all
of the books I have mentioned contain extensive and excellent bibliographies of
published scientific papers. Please refer to them if you are interested in such
sources.
