Chapter 1 Exoteric science

Telepathy is a form of extrasensory perception (ESP) that allows individuals to transfer information between each other without the use of the five traditional senses or any known physical interaction.

1.1 History

The term was coined in 1882 by the classical scholar Frederic W. H. Myers, a founder of the Society for Psychical Research, and has remained more popular than the earlier expression “thought transference.”

In the mid-20th century, American parapsychologist J.B. Rhine popularized the use of card-guessing and dice-rolling experiments in a laboratory setting to test for telepathy, leading to decades of research at his Parapsychology Laboratory at Duke University. More recently, the Institute of Noetic Sciences (IONS) has been involved in a number of studies and experiments related to telepathy led by Dean Radin (“Entangled Minds: Extrasensory Experiences in a Quantum Reality”). Rupert Sheldrake has also dedicated significant research to the study of telepathy, conducting several experiments and tests to provide evidence for telepathic communication.

1.2 Two Types

Telepathy can be categorized into two main types: spontaneous and experimentally induced. Spontaneous telepathy usually occurs in everyday life and involves unexpected incidences of shared thoughts or emotions between individuals. Experimentally induced telepathy is studied in controlled environments, often using techniques such as Ganzfeld experiments.

1.3 Two concepts

Quantum entanglement and omnipresence.

  • Quantum entanglement is a physical phenomenon observed in the field of quantum mechanics. When particles become entangled, the state of one particle is directly connected to the state of the other, no matter the distance between them. This means that a change in the state of one particle will instantly affect the state of the other, even if they are light-years apart.

  • Omnipresence, as a spiritual or philosophical concept, refers to the idea that a divine being or consciousness is always present everywhere. It’s a concept often associated with monotheistic religions or spiritual beliefs and implies an inherent connection between all things.

The connection between these two concepts lies in their implications of interconnectedness. Quantum entanglement suggests a fundamental level of interconnectedness in the physical world, where actions performed on one particle can affect another instantaneously, despite vast distances. This resembles the spiritual concept of omnipresence, where a divine power or consciousness is simultaneously present everywhere, connecting all things.

Quantum entanglement, often referred to as “action at a distance,” was indeed described as “spooky” by Albert Einstein. In quantum physics, entangled particles remain connected so that actions performed on one affect the other, even when separated by great distances. The state of one particle instantaneously affects the state of the other, no matter how far apart they are. This phenomenon seems to contradict Einstein’s theory of relativity, which says that nothing can travel faster than the speed of light.

1.4 Radio

Operating a radio station requires several key elements, but the two most crucial are transmitters and receivers.

  • Transmitters: A transmitter is a device that produces radio waves. It does this by converting electrical energy into radio waves and then broadcasting them into the air. The transmitter is connected to an antenna, which sends these signals out over a specific frequency.

  • Receivers: On the other end of the broadcast chain is the receiver. This device captures the radio waves sent by the transmitter and converts them back into electrical energy, which is then transformed into sound, images, or data. The receiver also has an antenna to capture the radio waves from the air.

Electromagnetic Principles Permitting Radio Transmission

Radio transmission works on the principles of electromagnetic radiation. Electromagnetic waves are a combination of electric and magnetic fields that propagate through space carrying radiant energy. In radio transmission, an electric current oscillating at a certain frequency creates an electromagnetic field. This field propagates outward in the form of a radio wave. Depending on their frequency and wavelength, radio waves are categorized into different bands: AM, FM, CB (Citizen Band), government, commercial, etc. Each band requires specific licensing and regulations.

Antennas

  • Broadcast antennas, used by radio stations to transmit signals, are typically large and located high off the ground to maximize their reach. They’re designed to handle high power levels and to radiate signals in a specific pattern. Examples include dipole antennas, monopole antennas, and array antennas.

  • Receiving antennas: Receiving antennas, used by radio listeners, can be much smaller and don’t need to handle high power levels. These antennas capture the radio waves and feed them into the receiver. Examples include whip antennas (common on cars), loop antennas, and Yagi antennas.

  • Transceivers: Transceiver antennas can switch between transmitting and receiving modes, allowing for two-way communication. These are commonly used in devices like walkie-talkies, CB radios, and amateur radio setups.However, it’s important to note that while an antenna can technically both send and receive signals, most commercial radio stations use separate antennas for each function to maximize efficiency and performance.
