1 00:00:09,049 --> 00:00:06,619 good afternoon folks you'll notice a 2 00:00:12,620 --> 00:00:09,059 little bit of this business it's not 3 00:00:14,589 --> 00:00:12,630 nerves it's not nerves I picked this up 4 00:00:17,359 --> 00:00:14,599 from a doctor named Parkinson somewhere 5 00:00:20,769 --> 00:00:17,369 so it's just a nuisance it doesn't 6 00:00:25,670 --> 00:00:20,779 bother me don't let it distract you 7 00:00:29,630 --> 00:00:25,680 in December 1958 in an issue of 8 00:00:35,180 --> 00:00:29,640 Scientific American devoted to creative 9 00:00:37,430 --> 00:00:35,190 thinking in science F J Dyson wrote for 10 00:00:40,760 --> 00:00:37,440 any speculation which does not at first 11 00:00:45,500 --> 00:00:40,770 glance appear crazy there is no hope 12 00:00:47,990 --> 00:00:45,510 and here's Niels Bohr speaking on behalf 13 00:00:53,750 --> 00:00:48,000 of a panel that's evaluating a new paper 14 00:00:54,590 --> 00:00:53,760 by Wolfgang Pauli dr. Polly we are all 15 00:00:57,560 --> 00:00:54,600 in agreement 16 00:01:00,560 --> 00:00:57,570 that your theory is crazy the point that 17 00:01:03,460 --> 00:01:00,570 divides us is whether it is sufficiently 18 00:01:07,190 --> 00:01:03,470 crazy to stand a chance of being right 19 00:01:10,039 --> 00:01:07,200 and I'll add my own contribution to this 20 00:01:11,840 --> 00:01:10,049 genre just because your idea sounds 21 00:01:17,600 --> 00:01:11,850 crazy does not automatically mean it's 22 00:01:22,580 --> 00:01:17,610 right it's a good sign though so with 23 00:01:27,469 --> 00:01:22,590 that spirit in mind we begin everything 24 00:01:32,450 --> 00:01:27,479 is connected everything changes pay 25 00:01:36,740 --> 00:01:32,460 attention let's assume just for the 26 00:01:39,710 --> 00:01:36,750 moment that the entire universe is made 27 00:01:44,240 --> 00:01:39,720 of a single omnipresent meta substance 28 00:01:48,469 --> 00:01:44,250 the ether a hydrodynamic fluid that 29 00:01:54,469 --> 00:01:48,479 manifests just as well as empty space as 30 00:02:02,090 --> 00:01:54,479 protons as planets buildings as lecture 31 00:02:05,929 --> 00:02:02,100 halls as chairs tables humans and all 32 00:02:08,830 --> 00:02:05,939 the time this ether is rushing down into 33 00:02:14,070 --> 00:02:08,840 certain points where it disappears 34 00:02:19,240 --> 00:02:14,080 we call this in Russian Kannamma mass 35 00:02:24,009 --> 00:02:19,250 and on the way down it momentarily 36 00:02:26,320 --> 00:02:24,019 creates all mundane phenomena this is a 37 00:02:29,979 --> 00:02:26,330 wild idea to be sure but is it wild 38 00:02:33,699 --> 00:02:29,989 enough to be correct who knows after all 39 00:02:37,780 --> 00:02:33,709 this is just let's suppose so let's see 40 00:02:41,530 --> 00:02:37,790 where this idea leads us to align our 41 00:02:44,350 --> 00:02:41,540 thinking we examine the etheric context 42 00:02:50,979 --> 00:02:44,360 of my hand as I stand here in this flood 43 00:02:56,140 --> 00:02:50,989 of ether up here up here the ether is 44 00:02:59,460 --> 00:02:56,150 being air oxygen nitrogen molecules here 45 00:03:01,319 --> 00:02:59,470 the ether is being hand skin bone blood 46 00:03:05,229 --> 00:03:01,329 down here 47 00:03:09,539 --> 00:03:05,239 ether is air again and then carpet and 48 00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:15,370 and in the process in the process of 49 00:03:21,160 --> 00:03:19,130 manifesting all these forms it is 50 00:03:24,490 --> 00:03:21,170 constantly trying to move things out of 51 00:03:27,629 --> 00:03:24,500 position to drag them down we have to 52 00:03:30,520 --> 00:03:27,639 exert constant effort to keep things up 53 00:03:38,789 --> 00:03:30,530 props are needed to hold the tabletop up 54 00:03:44,309 --> 00:03:41,830 so we are all affected by the ether 55 00:03:47,429 --> 00:03:44,319 flowing down into our local massive body 56 00:03:51,610 --> 00:03:47,439 but that's only part of the story 57 00:03:57,099 --> 00:03:51,620 everything we call mass is the same 58 00:04:00,309 --> 00:03:57,109 point for either and these other nearby 59 00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:00,319 sinks have an influence on us as we here 60 00:04:06,610 --> 00:04:03,290 on the surface of the earth what we 61 00:04:09,030 --> 00:04:06,620 experience is the vector some of the 62 00:04:13,979 --> 00:04:09,040 effect of each one of these sink points 63 00:04:20,650 --> 00:04:17,589 looking down on our solar system we can 64 00:04:24,189 --> 00:04:20,660 see the vast inrush into the Sun holding 65 00:04:27,189 --> 00:04:24,199 everything together on earth we plow 66 00:04:31,089 --> 00:04:27,199 through this at an angle that balances 67 00:04:34,659 --> 00:04:31,099 our ability to us to escape with the 68 00:04:42,670 --> 00:04:34,669 sun's ability to hold us in perpetual 69 00:04:44,499 --> 00:04:42,680 orbital bondage now not only the orbital 70 00:04:47,909 --> 00:04:44,509 speed of the earth must be taken into 71 00:04:52,060 --> 00:04:47,919 consideration but the rotational speed 72 00:04:54,969 --> 00:04:52,070 that's 1,100 miles an hour added at 73 00:04:57,790 --> 00:04:54,979 midnight and subtracted at noon and the 74 00:04:59,379 --> 00:04:57,800 moon don't forget the moon here's 75 00:05:03,370 --> 00:04:59,389 another sync vector that must be taken 76 00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:03,380 into consideration the moon has less 77 00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:05,690 impact than the earth or the Sun but 78 00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:10,810 still appreciable the question arises 79 00:05:19,719 --> 00:05:14,810 how large must the effect be to be 80 00:05:21,939 --> 00:05:19,729 noticeable noticeable by what should the 81 00:05:25,510 --> 00:05:21,949 position of the planets be taken into 82 00:05:28,149 --> 00:05:25,520 consideration as well so you see what 83 00:05:30,089 --> 00:05:28,159 we've waited off into here there's a 84 00:05:34,510 --> 00:05:30,099 term for this sort of investigation 85 00:05:38,350 --> 00:05:34,520 astrology but now we must realize that 86 00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:38,360 we're no longer talking about some 87 00:05:43,629 --> 00:05:41,210 mysterious influence celestial bodies 88 00:05:46,029 --> 00:05:43,639 may have on us but rather we must 89 00:05:47,760 --> 00:05:46,039 confront the fact that these bodies are 90 00:05:51,180 --> 00:05:47,770 all indirect 91 00:05:55,210 --> 00:05:51,190 mechanical contact with us all the time 92 00:05:59,680 --> 00:05:55,220 tiny effects to be sure but really tiny 93 00:06:04,690 --> 00:05:59,690 tiny enough that's a level of molecules 94 00:06:07,990 --> 00:06:04,700 the DNA molecule for instance who can 95 00:06:11,970 --> 00:06:08,000 say with certainty that a little etheric 96 00:06:14,740 --> 00:06:11,980 tweak on the DNA early in gestation 97 00:06:22,210 --> 00:06:14,750 would not have some possible effect 98 00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:22,220 later on takeaway point number one not 99 00:06:29,050 --> 00:06:25,490 that I believe that astrology is logical 100 00:06:32,290 --> 00:06:29,060 and scientific but it does seem that 101 00:06:35,370 --> 00:06:32,300 there is a direct mechanical way in 102 00:06:40,090 --> 00:06:35,380 which we are all literally connected to 103 00:06:43,660 --> 00:06:40,100 heavenly bodies all the time it makes 104 00:06:45,990 --> 00:06:43,670 you wonder perhaps the ancient shaman 105 00:06:49,650 --> 00:06:46,000 knew something that we have forgotten 106 00:06:57,090 --> 00:06:49,660 everything is connected everything 107 00:07:05,980 --> 00:07:01,810 so again regard my hand here the ether 108 00:07:09,310 --> 00:07:05,990 is being air your flesh and blood and 109 00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:09,320 here air again the same chunk of ether 110 00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:12,290 this whole thing rocks the same chunk of 111 00:07:24,180 --> 00:07:18,010 ether here air air flesh here air again 112 00:07:27,340 --> 00:07:24,190 now suppose suppose there's that 113 00:07:30,610 --> 00:07:27,350 seductive word the entered the 114 00:07:34,420 --> 00:07:30,620 invitation to adventure and folly and 115 00:07:37,770 --> 00:07:34,430 discovery let's suppose that down here 116 00:07:45,750 --> 00:07:37,780 where the ether has become arrogant 117 00:07:50,890 --> 00:07:48,850 the presence of the hand may alter the 118 00:07:55,600 --> 00:07:50,900 characteristics of the ether downstream 119 00:07:57,430 --> 00:07:55,610 now suppose there is another arm in the 120 00:08:00,969 --> 00:07:57,440 way of that either that's coming 121 00:08:03,700 --> 00:08:00,979 downstream of my hand my hand has 122 00:08:08,170 --> 00:08:03,710 introduced a change when the ether gets 123 00:08:11,320 --> 00:08:08,180 here being this other arm it carries 124 00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:11,330 with it some possibly some residual 125 00:08:21,730 --> 00:08:18,530 traits of what was in my hand take away 126 00:08:24,370 --> 00:08:21,740 point number two I don't for a moment 127 00:08:28,890 --> 00:08:24,380 want to say that like healing by laying 128 00:08:33,339 --> 00:08:28,900 on a hand is logical in scientific but 129 00:08:35,320 --> 00:08:33,349 it does seem that there is clear that 130 00:08:39,579 --> 00:08:35,330 there is a direct connection here a 131 00:08:43,150 --> 00:08:39,589 channel whereby one hand may affect 132 00:08:46,810 --> 00:08:43,160 another body so the matter cannot be 133 00:08:48,540 --> 00:08:46,820 ruled impossible up Hillary everything 134 00:08:54,700 --> 00:08:48,550 is connected 135 00:08:59,170 --> 00:08:57,100 now take a deep breath and we will look 136 00:09:03,250 --> 00:08:59,180 at interconnectedness from an entirely 137 00:09:05,710 --> 00:09:03,260 different level again we have pointed 138 00:09:09,660 --> 00:09:05,720 out that in our omnipresent etheric 139 00:09:13,030 --> 00:09:09,670 worldview the same patch of ether 140 00:09:16,780 --> 00:09:13,040 momentarily manifests as whatever lives 141 00:09:20,860 --> 00:09:16,790 in its path if we expand our view step 142 00:09:23,620 --> 00:09:20,870 back to a more distant perspective we 143 00:09:27,880 --> 00:09:23,630 see all the mundane objects of our world 144 00:09:31,650 --> 00:09:27,890 including ourselves formed of held in 145 00:09:34,030 --> 00:09:31,660 the grip of this endless etheric Flood 146 00:09:35,860 --> 00:09:34,040 think for a moment think for a moment 147 00:09:40,540 --> 00:09:35,870 about this think what is happening 148 00:09:45,520 --> 00:09:40,550 moment by moment from the viewpoint of 149 00:09:50,070 --> 00:09:45,530 the ether this room these chairs these 150 00:09:55,540 --> 00:09:50,080 people etc is all just a transient show 151 00:09:58,450 --> 00:09:55,550 what it was earlier was will be then 152 00:10:03,670 --> 00:09:58,460 flashing instantaneously instantaneously 153 00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:03,680 through now and right on into odds think 154 00:10:13,330 --> 00:10:07,850 what this means what will be is already 155 00:10:16,470 --> 00:10:13,340 present then it does is then moves right 156 00:10:19,060 --> 00:10:16,480 on into wise but it doesn't go away 157 00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:19,070 here's the same idea stated another way 158 00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:22,250 for any event to take place all the 159 00:10:29,380 --> 00:10:24,610 necessary antecedents for that event 160 00:10:32,740 --> 00:10:29,390 converge as now the event and downstream 161 00:10:36,280 --> 00:10:32,750 of now all the event consequences pick 162 00:10:39,100 --> 00:10:36,290 up the flow but now doesn't have to be 163 00:10:45,850 --> 00:10:39,110 regarded as a discontinuity it's just 164 00:10:48,850 --> 00:10:45,860 one cross-section of the flow let's try 165 00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:48,860 one more cut it is any physical object 166 00:10:56,260 --> 00:10:52,970 is a transient phenomenon created moment 167 00:10:59,710 --> 00:10:56,270 by moment in the ether stream this 168 00:11:02,440 --> 00:10:59,720 process is not perfect in the process of 169 00:11:04,790 --> 00:11:02,450 this manifestation the ether is 170 00:11:09,259 --> 00:11:04,800 constantly bringing about change 171 00:11:12,639 --> 00:11:09,269 in the physical object we manifest aging 172 00:11:18,730 --> 00:11:12,649 we call this aging takes place 173 00:11:26,810 --> 00:11:22,340 whatever all the antecedents are leading 174 00:11:30,949 --> 00:11:26,820 to reality they perpetually aid into the 175 00:11:35,120 --> 00:11:30,959 next moment of reality the next now the 176 00:11:40,310 --> 00:11:35,130 seed gradually becomes the plant the 177 00:11:43,759 --> 00:11:40,320 Earth rotates hair grows all in the grip 178 00:11:46,670 --> 00:11:43,769 of all through the agency of the 179 00:11:50,660 --> 00:11:46,680 ever-present the implacable process of 180 00:11:58,690 --> 00:11:50,670 etheric flow everything is connected 181 00:11:58,700 --> 00:12:03,990 that concludes the speech 182 00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:11,670 [Applause] 183 00:12:18,630 --> 00:12:13,480 well we have plenty of time for 184 00:12:27,280 --> 00:12:18,640 questions Thank You Jerry hi 185 00:12:30,250 --> 00:12:27,290 any questions got one I see a lot of 186 00:12:33,190 --> 00:12:30,260 coincidence between your principal of 187 00:12:35,740 --> 00:12:33,200 the ether and well the principle of 188 00:12:37,930 --> 00:12:35,750 oneness in Eastern religions and even 189 00:12:39,700 --> 00:12:37,940 some Christian mysticism you know I 190 00:12:43,020 --> 00:12:39,710 understand the problem people have 191 00:12:48,730 --> 00:12:43,030 hearing grew up here it's a blurry sound 192 00:12:57,910 --> 00:12:48,740 let me I'll speak more deeply so I see a 193 00:13:04,180 --> 00:12:57,920 lot of coincidence between so I see a 194 00:13:08,080 --> 00:13:04,190 lot of coincidence between the principle 195 00:13:09,790 --> 00:13:08,090 of oneness and Eastern religions and the 196 00:13:12,640 --> 00:13:09,800 principle of ether as you speak about it 197 00:13:15,760 --> 00:13:12,650 my question for you is as you conceive 198 00:13:18,580 --> 00:13:15,770 of it is ether a substance that has 199 00:13:21,520 --> 00:13:18,590 something behind it or is it in itself 200 00:13:26,980 --> 00:13:21,530 something that connects everything it is 201 00:13:29,200 --> 00:13:26,990 not dependent upon anything I use the 202 00:13:32,350 --> 00:13:29,210 term meta substance when I refer to it 203 00:13:35,410 --> 00:13:32,360 and by meanings a higher realm of 204 00:13:38,560 --> 00:13:35,420 substance it is that from which 205 00:13:50,259 --> 00:13:38,570 everything else is formed and aside from 206 00:13:56,870 --> 00:13:53,060 just a quick follow-up on that would 207 00:13:58,970 --> 00:13:56,880 then you say I mean philosophically 208 00:14:04,340 --> 00:13:58,980 you'd have to then posit a beginning for 209 00:14:08,440 --> 00:14:04,350 the ether as well what you would have to 210 00:14:13,910 --> 00:14:08,450 posit a beginning for the ether as well 211 00:14:17,750 --> 00:14:13,920 that's a long question there's new 212 00:14:20,780 --> 00:14:17,760 etheric calm I started writing on this 213 00:14:22,550 --> 00:14:20,790 subject about forty five years ago I've 214 00:14:25,880 --> 00:14:22,560 been singing the same song over and over 215 00:14:29,480 --> 00:14:25,890 ever since I only know one song but 216 00:14:32,540 --> 00:14:29,490 you'll find the back of discussion of 217 00:14:42,220 --> 00:14:32,550 how this now I got to this point my 218 00:14:46,759 --> 00:14:42,230 reading new etheric stock I'm glad that 219 00:14:50,690 --> 00:14:46,769 you led off with an anecdote from the 220 00:14:53,900 --> 00:14:50,700 early career of Wolfgang Pauli because 221 00:14:57,230 --> 00:14:53,910 this entire talk puts me very much in 222 00:15:04,210 --> 00:14:57,240 mind of a quote from Pao Lee himself 223 00:15:13,910 --> 00:15:07,130 the loose translation into English would 224 00:15:16,880 --> 00:15:13,920 be not even wrong Jerry yes interesting 225 00:15:19,880 --> 00:15:16,890 with regard to the ether the 226 00:15:22,819 --> 00:15:19,890 michelson-morley experiment a long time 227 00:15:24,800 --> 00:15:22,829 ago and eighteen late eighteen hundreds 228 00:15:28,970 --> 00:15:24,810 said oh that's not real 229 00:15:32,240 --> 00:15:28,980 but what's unknown is that I think is in 230 00:15:35,300 --> 00:15:32,250 the 60s or 80s in nature the air force 231 00:15:37,120 --> 00:15:35,310 in fact that done some studies that did 232 00:15:39,800 --> 00:15:37,130 the same experiments with a better 233 00:15:42,920 --> 00:15:39,810 instrumentation that says the ether 234 00:15:45,290 --> 00:15:42,930 Israel so it's just something that is 235 00:15:47,269 --> 00:15:45,300 and there's references to the bat I just 236 00:15:50,150 --> 00:15:47,279 thought that'd be interesting thing 237 00:15:51,939 --> 00:15:50,160 that's there and ether I believe things 238 00:15:54,740 --> 00:15:51,949 you're saying that everything is in fact 239 00:15:57,230 --> 00:15:54,750 made from the ether and the vortexes 240 00:15:58,400 --> 00:15:57,240 that form from that is what creates 241 00:16:01,820 --> 00:15:58,410 thing 242 00:16:03,970 --> 00:16:01,830 so thank you for bringing up thank you 243 00:16:07,240 --> 00:16:03,980 for bringing up more michelson-morley 244 00:16:08,510 --> 00:16:07,250 there's a wild widely distributed 245 00:16:13,370 --> 00:16:08,520 misunderstanding about what 246 00:16:15,470 --> 00:16:13,380 michelson-morley proved they did not 247 00:16:17,180 --> 00:16:15,480 prove the absence of the ether they 248 00:16:18,850 --> 00:16:17,190 prove that if there is an ether flow 249 00:16:23,690 --> 00:16:18,860 relative to the surface of the earth 250 00:16:26,269 --> 00:16:23,700 quote it is probably less than one-sixth 251 00:16:29,090 --> 00:16:26,279 saw and almost certainly less than 252 00:16:33,139 --> 00:16:29,100 one-fourth of the orbital speed of the 253 00:16:34,519 --> 00:16:33,149 earth - in its cycle that's same so 254 00:16:37,070 --> 00:16:34,529 that's not that's not a null result 255 00:16:40,340 --> 00:16:37,080 that's a statement of the limitation of 256 00:16:42,430 --> 00:16:40,350 their instrumentation another M 257 00:16:45,560 --> 00:16:42,440 Michelson Morley Miller Dayton Miller 258 00:16:47,810 --> 00:16:45,570 did dozens and dozens of experiments on 259 00:16:50,600 --> 00:16:47,820 this and his result essentially agreed 260 00:16:52,190 --> 00:16:50,610 with Michelson Morley and he discovered 261 00:16:55,370 --> 00:16:52,200 a ten kilometer per second 262 00:17:01,400 --> 00:16:55,380 ether which is pretty much the agreement 263 00:17:05,020 --> 00:17:01,410 now go ahead the concept of the ether 264 00:17:10,569 --> 00:17:05,030 that really resonates best with me is 265 00:17:13,460 --> 00:17:10,579 Devi bones Hollow movement it's it 266 00:17:18,590 --> 00:17:13,470 brings the concept of everything 267 00:17:20,660 --> 00:17:18,600 changing but it's it's just something 268 00:17:24,100 --> 00:17:20,670 that very resonates with me and I 269 00:17:26,750 --> 00:17:24,110 wondered what you think of that 270 00:17:30,110 --> 00:17:26,760 I'm not sure exactly what you're 271 00:17:32,060 --> 00:17:30,120 referring to but as I was listening to 272 00:17:35,600 --> 00:17:32,070 yesterday's talk there was a discussion 273 00:17:37,790 --> 00:17:35,610 about the effect that laying on of hands 274 00:17:39,830 --> 00:17:37,800 had on certain molecules like we got the 275 00:17:42,919 --> 00:17:39,840 whole detail but it had to do with the 276 00:17:45,770 --> 00:17:42,929 proximity of the healers hands affecting 277 00:17:47,930 --> 00:17:45,780 and I'm listening to this and I say well 278 00:17:50,120 --> 00:17:47,940 yeah I can see Brown I can see how 279 00:17:52,430 --> 00:17:50,130 there's a channel there how there could 280 00:18:01,070 --> 00:17:52,440 be a connection between a healers hands 281 00:18:03,100 --> 00:18:01,080 and what is what's downstream that's 282 00:18:05,750 --> 00:18:03,110 true 283 00:18:10,040 --> 00:18:05,760 Thank You Jerry if I could get everyone
