A shamanistic perspective in a sea of science.
I have read through the light experiment, and it is a very interesting read and interesting results. I must profess, however to being confused about something: what does this have to do with Emoto or the thoughts of the experimenter?
Read your own explanation for efficacy carefully - it's the old "skeptical thoughts cancel psychic vibrations" one in yet another form. Which has long since been shown to be twaddle.
There is an assumption in this forum that there are NO experiments which SUPPORT the idea: The INTENTION/THOUGHTS of the experimenter will EFFECT the outcome of the experiment in question.
I will agree that there is not a lot of
scientific evidence to support it, and that it probably falls into pseudo-science for that reason. But John Wheeler's experiment is evidence that thought
can effect the outcome of the experiment; whether Emoto did his experiment correctly is debatable, ofcourse. I think this should still be studied more, and that scientists like yourselves should open your mind to possibilities, instead of being superstitious of everything "woo-woo".
For the record, I believe that Emoto's findings are correct, and do show
initial evidence to support the claim that thoughts(alone) can effect reality. This is common knowledge in my religious teachings, and I believe it is a fundamental aspect to your
understanding of reality. Without it, you are lost; deluded by the mysteries of
light.
His experiment shows the effect a person's aurora can have on the objects it comes in contact with; the shapes of the ice crystals, or condition of the water, is a result of the vibrations of the person's thoughts(meditative thoughts, with deep concentration) projected outside their body via the aurora (electro-magnetic like web of energy that surrounds living things exactly like the magnetic field of a planet). The resulting snow-flake patterns can be compared with cymatic patterns, whose similiar patterns will reveal the frequency of the "thought" that created the ice crystal. The vibration of the aurora is the
seed that begins the fractal formation of the ice crystal.
John Wheeler's experiment shows us that light, and therefore everything that our eyes "see" is relative to what we
expect it to be. Further experiments in what we "see" will begin to reveal that we can see more colors/frequencies of the electro-magnetic spectrum than we currently use each day, and much of this "invisible" interraction between experimenter and experiment will become visible to our naked eyes once more people learn to expand their sensitivity, and spread the knowledge of what they "see."
The two topics are related in that YOU are people who can not see the extended spectrum, and so the idea of "invisible" energies touching the water during the experiment is ludacris to you. You want to measure these invisible energies, and aurora, and "see" them for yourselves, right ? Light is playing tricks on your eyes, and your eyes (or rather the mental process of organizing the incoming visual stimulai into logical components) are eliminating the aurora, and countless other unimportant things going on around you. To put it simply, you are in YOUR OWN WORLD. And you put yourself there.
For those of us initiated into esoteric, shamanic, or similar spiritual traditions these invisible connections between experimenter and experiment are visible(under certain conditions). Our eyes have adjusted to different frequencies(or dimensions, rather) and we are able to percieve the invisible connections in questions.
I am looking for people who are interested in exploring the science to this; and I am not interested in people who just want to call it "religion" or "hallucination" and be done with it.
I'm attempting to seek out ways in which these EFFECTS CAN BE MEASURED. Emoto has given us a starting point.
