The Sensitivity of Life to Other
Life and the Environment By Richard Kieninger Occidental thought is
characterized by its tradition that man is the measure of all things and
that the welfare of the individual is foremost. The oriental attitude, on the
other hand, sees man as but another form of the Creator’s Work and as equally
subject to Nature and fate as the tiger or the fish. Eastern philosophy
assigns individual man to being but a cog in the body of mankind and places the
welfare of the human race above the individual. All of the Brother-hoods
espouse the occidental viewpoint, but some of their Eastern schools are still
influenced by the oriental background of their students. The occidental
emphasizes man’s Will, whereas the oriental emphasizes his oneness with and
influence by all other life forms. There is much to support the oriental view
as far as it goes. The four bodies of a
man—physical, Vital, Astral and Mental—are sensitive receptors of currents
and forces which unceasingly impinge upon him. On all four levels, each of us
is plugged into the universe. One’s Vital Body receives its sustenance from
radiations of our Sun on the second plane of existence. These energies flow
into the body along very distinct paths and channel into all the vital organs
and then flow out of the body again. The clairvoyant person can perceive this
etheric flow as if the human body were a magnet surrounded by iron filings
on a piece of paper designed to show the magnetic lines of force. The Kirlian
photography device has been developed which causes brightly visible streams
of electricity to flow from any living organism when it is placed in the
device’s high-voltage, high-frequency electrical field. Interestingly, the
visible, physical streams of electrical discharge follow the etheric patterns
established by the lines of outflow of the plant’s or animal’s Vital Body. In
effect, the lines of flow of energy out of the body are made visible to the
camera. These lines of flow, which have been photographed and observed in the
laboratory, correspond exactly to the acupuncture charts developed centuries
ago by Chinese physicians who treat disease by re-establishing the proper
flow of vital energy to diseased organs with the use of fine metal needles
inserted into the skin of the patient at the point where the lines of force
enter and emerge from the skin. The best acupuncture physicians are
clairvoyant, as might be expected. The machine may also be used in the future
to diagnose disease since disruptions in electrical discharge from the
acupuncture points can be seen even before symptoms of disease become
manifest. It has long been observed
experimentally that plant seedlings will grow exceptionally well if a human
being directs loving thoughts towards them; and if hateful thoughts are
directed towards the seedlings, they can be made to wither and fail. This can
actually be measured with sensitive instruments. A Canadian researcher has
devised an electrical sensor which detects differences between emotional
states of a person. Depending upon the electrical wave form developed on
metal plates between which a person stands, this researcher has been able to
record and re-broadcast this soundless emotional energy towards other people.
Loving and happy emotions beamed at ill or mentally disturbed patients will
soothe and calm them. Hateful and hostile emotions beamed at normal people
make them agitated or angry even though they are totally unaware that they
are the subject of an experiment. Little wonder that emotions are contagious. If a plant is mutilated or
plucked out of the ground, a neighboring plant will register the event
through the sensitivity mechanisms of its Vital Body which also gives rise to
measurable electrical pulses. Encephalographic electrodes planted in
laboratory animals will record a sharp peak in the brain of a mother animal
when her babies are killed, even at great distances from her. Similar
electrodes wired to people’s brains and muscles reveal that everyone is
sensitive to the force fields surrounding underground water and ore lodes
even though they don’t always transfer their reaction to move a dowsing rod
they are holding. Plants tend to grow poorly over such force fields in the
earth, and animals will tend to avoid sleeping near them. Mans’ sensitivity
to minute variations of geophysical anomalies is even more apparent in the
effect the moon has on man’s behavior. To a lesser degree, the relative
positions of the planets in the heavens also modify the gravitational and etheric
force fields to which man responds. (Gravity is the physical manifestation of
the binding power of etheric patterns on the second plane of existence.)
Experiments in telepathy indicate that when thoughts are beamed at a person,
a minute but measurable amount of blood distends his extremities even though
he had no conscious perception of receiving any impression or message. He
may, however, sense a slight blushing or warmth. I think it can be seen that
man is more sensitive to his environment and to other living creatures than
he is generally aware of. It is a poetic but real sentiment that “when a man
somewhere in the world dies, a part of me dies with him.” Wars literally
depress the whole planet of men, animals and plants. Hatred and love are real
energies to which all life forms are responsive. We each have within the
power of our creative wills to bathe the world in positive, loving thoughts.
Everyone is sensitive to our environment, and we have the potential of
detecting and counteracting deleterious influences by use of our wills. |
