I was looking at the moon one night, it was super clear and bright. I was thinking about how far away it was compared to me, suddenly it occurred to me - this space I know is between me and the moon and beyond, it exists in my consciousness and also independent of it , huh. So it exists in my consciousness and I am my consciousness I am also everything that is within and without and I suppose vice versa. I don’t stop at my skin, my consciousness is more than just visual and audio signals coming into my head. Then wham - it hit me, wow we are everything and everything is us. That was the start of my spiritual journey.

I used to live in a street with lots of foot traffic. Sometimes I'd look out the window and watch people. It happened frequently that I was looking at someone (from up and behind) and they'd turn around and look directly at me. So yeah, I believe people (at least some) do feel it when they're being stared at.
YES! I live on a very busy street with 2 bus stops right in front of my house. Anytime I look out my window on the 2nd floor at least 1 person will immediately look up directly at me. It never fails.
People feel when we look at them with love, disgust, and judgment even if we try to hide our expressions. There is an emotional side to the gaze that cannot be denied.
It has never dawned on me that something comes out of my eyes. I've never heard of anyone saying that something comes from their eyes. It would never dawn on me in a thousand years to imagine something like that, and yet here's this video saying that it's a rather common thought.
Maybe he's wrong,try: Seeing without eyes documentary Lucid dreaming Robert Waggoner(Conscious TV interview is best), Bruce Lipron, Brian Weiss, Bob Monroe, Jeffrey Mishlove, Bruce Greyson, Tom Campbell,etc.
Actually here is a video talking complete shite. Of course nothing comes out of your eyes. Your pupil is tiny. It would heat up if you were emitting enough radiation to light up a room. To test this. Put your camera on video mode across the room and record. Make the room dark. Sit across from the camera and open and close your eyes. Play back the video later. Do you see your eyes lighting up? No. Didn't think so.
Many years ago when I was in massage school we were instructed to work on the area where amputated limbs would be. One of my classmates had someone with an amputated limb and did as she'd been taught. The client's feedback was SO positive and they felt like it was one of the best sessions they'd ever had.
Umm, I have medical knowledge and we were never taught how to massage an amputied leg. All I was taught was when to follow pain management, but never to sooth beyond that. Compassion was there none the less, but the damage beyond that was only from my education and the way I'd want to be treated. I have to say, there's too many people in the world (people in powerful positions) who have forgotten the golden rule or compassion to follow laws and regulations for the good of the people.
I have heard testimonies from nurses that take care of veteran amputees where they tried this and the person claimed they instantly got relief from the phantom pain they'd been having from the limb that's no longer there that they'd been having for years or decades. One of my theories on it is that though the physical limb is no longer there, the phantom pain might be from the person's aura or whatever words you'd like to use to describe it, where even though the physical limb is gone the aura around where it used to be still exists and causes the trouble. Doing this therapy maybe just soothes that energy that is still there that just doesn't know what to do now that the limb's gone and goes haywire as a result. Just an idea though really, I'm sure some internet warrier can tear down my idea easily enough
Crazy that I'm watching this, and this thought is in my mind as well, because I'm actually currently going through massage school myself right now 😂 I study at Alexandar School of Natural Therapeutics. The lady that opened the school has a therapist ID number under #350 😂 Isn't it so beautiful that learning about massage, helps to piece the grand mural together? ♾️💜
I had menengitis in my 20's, it caused my brain and nervous system to be incredibly sensitive to light. I had all my windows blacked out, had sunglasses on just for the desperation to know light wouldn't reach my eyes, while I was under blankets. 3 am my husband opened the door in the living room when he got home from work ... the porchlight 2 blocks away managed to reach me ... and I felt it ... throught my whole entire body. I felt the pain of it in my feet ... legs ... arms and hands ... my eyes. I was under heavy blankets with sunglasses on and still felt it. I have never forgotten that pain.
Woah. That kinda.. strikes a chord with me. Because, a few years back, my senses were so.. elevated, and I don't know why, that I could smell weather days in advance, from anywhere inside or out. I could hear a sound, like skittering, and have a mental image of exactly where what I heard came from. Hell, I could.. not feel, but SENSE police sirens downtown, about 30 seconds before I could audibly hear them. I don't know why I was like that, or what happened to dull my senses back to normal, but what you described sounds similar. Weird.
I was surfing one time, and I could feel something in the water. It was a very intense feeling. I had felt this very "fishy" sense a few times before and I would lift my arms and legs out of the water. But this time was a little different. So, when I got on shore, maybe a minute later a 8-9ft bullshark came up almost out of the water, so close that it nearly beached itself. It did this a few times before disapearing into the waves. It was mind blowing.
Welcome to my childhood experience swimming in the deep end of the pool. There were never any sharks in the pool, despite my intense feeling that there were and I was about to be eaten.
When I was little and in Galveston one day, I was out in that brown water. I got that weird and intense "fishy" feeling. There were decent sized fish jumping out of the water all around me, and something brushed my leg. Made me feel sick to the stomach. I turned around and GTFO the water. Didn't see anything but those scared fish, though.
I became convinced of this having worked as a bush regenerator for years. It's one thing to suddenly turn and look at the person looking at you in the street, or in the shops or at a carpark,. But to be in the dense diversity of a forest, and have my subconscious mind, will my vision suddenly and directly to a bird that is watching me from one of thousands of branches around me, never feels accidental! And there is no way I could count how many times that has happened to me. So much love for the birds :) Thanks After Skool and Rupert Sheldrake, love your work!
It happened to me one time I was working on a hay baler and I felt that feeling and I turned around and look and a coyote was standing about 40 fade away when we made eye contact he hopped up and kind of lobbed off. That's very interesting.
yeah? and what about the 10k other birds you never noticed or felt? just because you catch a few doing it doesnt mean anything. people feel stared at by blind persons as well and by paintings and inanimate dolls. you cant "feel" things looking at you. people just developed intuition and a very high sensitivity for noticing and suspecting it.
Dear Rupert, I never tire of your wonderful lectures: morphic resonance, quantum entanglement and panpsychism has given me an almost complete solution to the metaphysical experience. At last, I'm able to sleep at night x 😊🙏✨
I was so certain of this theory in my early 20s that I was constantly scanning for ways to prove it to myself.. I worked in Manhattan at the time, and to the right of my desk was a big window with a view of a tall office building. It was a weekend and i had noticed that the building was more or less empty on that day. While I was working I suddenly felt eyes looking at me. Without turning, I thought to myself, "Okay, I really feel eyes looking at me right now." The gaze felt like it was at the back of my head, definitely outside the frame of my visual periphery, and I determined that this was a good setting for an experiment. I decided that in a moment I was going to turn around and look in the direction of where I felt the stare coming from. I turned quickly to where I had felt the gaze and in the massive office building there was one person standing in a window looking at me. That was all the proof I ever needed to know that there are invisible forces at play in this life.
I think what you had felt (staring) came from that point in the future of things where that emotion had manifested. In other words, you were predisposed to feel that emotion, but not without a precursor to it. In Quantum Reasoning I use an infinite line (compressed) for holding these future states to the static ... and a series of prime numbers for locking the emotion to the static state of things until 'Motion' leads us into this not so far reaching place in the future. In essence, we spiral forward in Motion towards that prestine Emotion. However, during this spiraling advance there are 360 degree precursors which cause a 'Precog' as a prelude to that place on the spiral where we end upSo, that Emotion has already been released. It's only a matter of arc degree coordinates to when 'TIME' we will come to witness it.
@@coldbounce Basically, primes don't budge and make for good locking mechanisms for what is compressed and static (simultaneous). that prime needs an inverted copy of itself in order to vibrate back and forth between analog and static. Now, numbers don't know orientation. they just occupy places, and these places are identical to one another. So, shift that prine around into a composite (divisible) and an invertion (or, mirror effect) opens a vibration via the medium of these spaces that they both occupy. Primes and composites are adversarial and react by bumping back & forth ... and exchanging information this way. So, compression is released into analog also. The Emotion can fill these voids in TIME DILATION this way and return to the infinite line when that dilation recalibrates back to clock time. Like seeing a speed bump from the rear view mirror, with your foot now on the gas. The infinite line is also the diameter of the circle and shates information these same ways. Look for more of my comments on this video. You will see that pi is a Supernatural Creation form GOD!
Confirmation bias. All the times that you thought you were stared at, but were mistaken, are ignored. You can't feel when people stare at you. That is complete woo.
It’s simply awareness. Like when a mother senses it’s too quiet or seeing shadows and reflections that we have otherwise filtered out or physical cues that we have not consciously deciphered and the cognitive biases within. Like the warrior training mentioned, it is a honable skill.
Oh my gosh, yes. What is that when we know it's too quiet? It's like I'm picking up on the thought in the mind of the child of "I better hide this" and like a wolf we smell it out haha
I drive for a living and I can affirm that placing your eyes on a person is the best way to get them to notice you even if they seem to have tuned out the world. Most people feel the weight of your stare, and will at least glance to dispel the sensation of that extra weight. That's when they usually notice me in my work truck.
There is a fascinating video I once saw of a reporter demonstrating how to cross the busiest road in London during high speed rush hour. He crosses like 6 six lanes of traffic without looking at anyone. It only works because he doesn't make eye contact. He looks dead ahead at his destination and bravely walks right into traffic at a steady pace. The drivers all see him and deftly avoid him without incident precisely because he is moving in a single direction with intent and they never communicate. Because if they did communicate, it would confuse everyone and all hell would break loose.
Confirmation bias. You've rejected all the instances where someone did NOT look when you stared at them and cherry picked the instances that works with your theory.
@@edwardgyan7586 You don't know if that's true. There's nuances to human interaction that can't be boiled down to a science experiment because you can't take into account all of reality in real time.

My grandma who is actually pretty science minded shared a story with me recently, where she said many years ago she had a friend who was on a field trip of sorts with students and another adult, and they ended up getting trapped and snowed into like a snow cave. Nobody survived, unfortunately. My grandma was not worried about her friend, in fact, she didn’t even even know about this field trip .The night her friend passed away. My grandma had a dream that she could hear her friend calling her name and my grandma went to a door and she couldn’t open it and she could see shadows under the door and she kept trying to open the door, but it was impossible.. she woke up to the news the next day that her friend passed away. And remember this was before cell phone so nobody was texting back-and-forth. Also, my grandma shared that a couple of other people had dreams that same night very intense that had to do with snow and people being trapped. it’s very intense, but to me this proves something without a shadow of doubt And pardon any grammatical errors I am using speech to text
I’ve had precognition of my dog dying years before his death same with my own pitbull he recently passed as well since my dreams gave me sed visions and they all came in order as well without thinking they were gonna die :/
Well ACKshually Information CAN NOT EXIST IN THIS "physical realm" Anyone who understands language properly will understand this. DATA is what you are reading. Data. Watch.. There's No Such Thing As Plain Text • Dylan Beattie • YOW! 2023 I hope this solves your misconceptions !
Yes. Information with other cells by complex organic functions and chemical processes. Not by transmitting undetectable magic signals that we can somehow sense but not know are there and which go against everything we have proven with science.
Speechless. Love discovering people who can put words to the things you feel and know to be true but can’t quite explain it yourself without sounding mad. Thank you!
Somebody might’ve commented on this already, but did you know Robert Sheldrake is the father of the mycologist and author Merlin Sheldrake, and Cosmo Sheldrake, the amazing musician. I like to think they must’ve had an amazing childhood with a father like this.
As a mother, I love this perspective. That as a unique individual, we can give our children a fantastic childhood. Rises all the way above overcoming generational trauma. Just be your amazing self and one day someone can say this about your children. 🎉
Mabey for a small percent of humans.. A lot are doomed by stupidity. They've been conditioned that way, so i feel empathy for them. Its not to late though, 🙉🙈🙊 I was a bit stupid & selfish, i didn't know any better.. But breaking out of the meat cage is helping , With a whole different view on life,now my eyes & mind are wide open, I see, hear & feel so much more than i used to. ❤️🌏⭐💚 Spread joy
This gives rise to many concepts of mental "abilities" such as clairvoyance, mind over matter, manifestation, deja vu, and a whole list of others. I would like to express my sincerest gratitude for expanding my consciousness on this matter. Blessed be your days with peace and prosperity professor.
Thank you, Rupert. I feel very fortunate to have found your writing years ago and you continue to influence and inspire. I learned of you while in the Islands of BC with the Pinchot family and I feel very lucky. All the best.
Describe the feeling. Describe where it actually is. You people haven't even bothered to understand and analyze that feeling within yourselves properly, but somehow have no trouble claiming that as the progenitor of this magical sixth sense.
If they dont give Stephen Wolfram the Nobel this year I am going to be disgusted. He calls ZK outputs "computationally irreducible" Same same. He's RIGHT. WE made this protocol.. this "place" so we could be less selfish. That simple. Nothing to fear, but fear itself.. self.. self.. self..
@burgerbobbelcher Maybe it was a coincidence, but when I was little, me and my class were on a trip to the local park, then I had a feeling that something bad was going to happen. Later that day, someone was shot close to my school
Nothing comes out of the eyes but our perception, be it conscious or not, we feel the world around us, and those in it, be kind, every step makes ripples in a pond
I've admired Rupert since I first read about him in "The Field" by Lynne Mctaggart. I really hope some day soon his ideas will be confirmed by mainstream science and his career, insight & passion will be vindicated.
The denial from materialist fundamentalists is all the confirmation we need. Just the attempt to suppress his Ted talk made it more interesting than it would have otherwise been.
Rudolf Steiner said we have an Etheric Body (which is our life force) that life force is what gives your body its form - and when you die the form leaves the material body and the body immediately starts to decay (which it does). When you lose a limb (it is physically not there anymore), but your etheric life force of the limb still exists and that is why you feel it. U r feeling the life force of the limb -- because even though the limb is gone, you are still alive. Makes sense.
Our sensitivity to life is being corrupted as we type each word. Turn off the Boob Tube and free up space in your mind. Even if it takes anger to begin . It will all change for the better.
Interesting video. It made me realize something I hadn’t really thought about in the past. I used to archery hunt deer every fall. When I started hunting them, many would become alert to my presence when getting near enough for a shot. My success rate went up with experience. A big part of that was I learned not to look directly at the deer. I would only scan past and around them until I was ready to shoot. Then I would focus on their vital area, where I wanted the arrow to go but still not look at their heads. I can clearly remember doing this now after watching this video but I never really put thought into it. It was more instinctive. I was In essence hiding my consciousness from the deers consciousness. Just like camouflage and limited movement hid me from its eyes and playing the wind hid me from its sense of smell.
@@RisetoStrength I have nothing against you getting food, it's the manner in which you were getting that food I was referring to...Bow hunting is particularly malicious in MY point of view. Are you saying I'm not allowed my own opinion?

My daughter and I have always had what I call ‘twin connection’. We almost 100% of the time know when the other is having a significant mental or physical crisis,to the point if one of us injure s ourselves the other physically feels it, even though we now live 45 mins drive apart. I can almost guarantee an immediate phone call if I am suffering in any way and she will tell me what she is picking up before I admit to it and vice versa. I have put this down to us being just us and very close during most of her formative years, but this video strengthens my belief there is more to it than that. Thankyou Rupert and all the others that have commented…I have found my spirit animals!
When i feel someone staring at me it feels more like I'm aware I'm being studied mentally---it seems more like I know someone is paying attention than like I'm feeling their eyes seeing me.
I've been a fan of Sheldrake since reading Morphic Resonance some 25 or so years ago. Thank you for doing your part to broaden science and understanding.
I have experienced that taking a higher Power for granted has been like a guardian Angel for me.This made me less superstitious, naive and daring in encounters with man and beast in many professional and personal situations. At some time I was convinced that my naivety shielded me. I think, after having watched this ed. video, that there's often been an Interaction of fields leading to a certain outcome in situations.
Rupert is a modern day genius. His books "Science Set Free" and "Morphic Resonance" are great places to start for those who aren't familiar with his work. Astonishing reads, both of them.
Nonsense. He's a modern day charlatan and/or fantasist. He came up with his 'morphic resonance' idea about 50 years ago and hasn't managed to produce a scrap of evidence (that reasonable scientists don't find endless faults with). His experiments are either badly designed by accident or deliberately set up to give false positive results, he gathers anecdotes from anywhere and imagines that's evidence, and he finally wrote a book tearing irrationally into "scientific dogma" because nobody would agree with his garbage hypotheses. ...Oh crap, I've just spotted a thumbnail from this channel on Bruce Lipton! I'm betting there'll be one on Deepity Chop-salad as well. The spritual consumerism industry is raking it in. After Skool? Maybe should have gone to school first.
That "being stared at" thing is such an uncomfortable feeling and also undescribable. You just feel followed, threatened and stared at at the same time then you turn around and see an elderly woman leaning out of a window 100 metres away but she's turned away. But you know it: It was her. I don't know why, I just know it.
Nothing is more terrifying than being stared at by your demon. As terrifying as the encounter is whilst not having any connection to your body at all. There’s a lesson in there. Sometimes the demon or entity doesn’t need to tell you something that deep down you already know. For me my demon is apparently Rangda. Although I haven’t seen any depictions like the demon saw that night I died. I’ve never been and still not at all religious in any way. Before I was an atheist, now, I’m not sure what I am. But those stories you hear about purgatory and answering for your sins. 100 percent that does happen. It might just be chemicals it might just be a reaction. But it happens and it’s so remarkably similar to what we’ve been told. To the point where I don’t think it’s because I’ve heard the stories. It was too scripted and too out of the realm of what any mind can actually comprehend. I don’t remember experiencing it at the time. I just remember the thought of seeing it. Blasted into a massive bright white geodesic dome then nothingness. Coming to and the next day remembering the eyes. From its eyes I remembered the rest. I don’t care what anybody says. There’s a lot more to the universe, consciousness and life. We are just basic humans that really do know nothing.
I'm not dismissing the ideas of why we know we're being stared at discussed here, but I would like to point out a couple more things I've noticed. One, our brain picks up on a lot more cues than we realize. Our peripheral vision is wide and there are a lot of subconscious cues we don't actively realize are happening, such as someone looking directly at us that we see in our periphery occasionally as we move and look around us. The second is, I've noticed when someone walks up and stands behind me there is a deadness of sound, even if it's already completely silent. The air behind me becomes less fluid and I can sense it in my ears. Then I perceive someone is behind me. If they're standing facing me the deadness of air motion and sound is greater than if they're turned sideways. And of course someone standing behind me no matter how quiet they may be still will make slight noises that even if I don't consciously hear, my subconscious will pick up on it and alert me to it.
I think you should do an episode of John Vervaeke discussing RELEVANCE REALIZATION. It is so crucial to how our minds work and what makes us different from biologic computers
"Several independent experimenters were unable to find evidence beyond statistical randomness that people could tell they were being stared at, with some saying that there were design flaws in Sheldrake's experiments,[11][26][91] such as using test sequences with "relatively few long runs and many alternations" instead of truly randomised patterns.[92][93] In 2005, Michael Shermer expressed concern over confirmation bias and experimenter bias in the tests, and concluded that Sheldrake's claim was unfalsifiable.[94]"
I think there is a better explaination for that sense.... But if you enter a dark place with no visible light your sense through vision kind of shut off and you do not try to rely on vision but on something beyond it eventhough objects might be emitting unvisible light...thats why other instuments that detect unvisible light were developed...
I think we're factoring out the Emotional element that always seems to acompany each sensation of being looked at. In most cases we shouldnt expect the target person to return a similar glance. However, The Emotion which had manifested along side these sensations could be what brought us to this junction in [Time and-] Motion in the first place. Each Emotion must occupy a Time lag .. or we might be sleeping. For a moment like this to exist [ - within a dilated segment in Time] an Emotion must occupy these voids, and release a sensation for fulfilling that moment. From the future of things, the same Emotion is static and compressed into an infinite line. As Time dilates, the stage is set for the decompressing of the static into Motion this way. And may be why Time seems to slow for every sensation of shock & awe that we encounter. So, that moment in Motion did not dilate at all. It stayed its course. 'Time' is perception of 'Motion' and dilates accordingly through a compression / decompressing apparatus. This is known as the Fine Structure Constant. The first Law of Thermodynamics is very clear on this ... And is why numbers and geometry take on an associative behavior (unified fields). So, a unified field is an appartus. Stuff in ... Stuff out. That's all it needs to do. Decompress, then recompress back into the infinite line. It's time for my nap now, but I must add here that pi is a Supernatural Creation from GOD.
A large majority of us with ASD regularly experience oddities in life which are shrugged off but when one stops and unpacks the probabilities of these events happening, they work out to unfathomably low chances of natural occurrences. These include Jungian synchronicities, serendipities and razor-sharp intuition that turns out to be true which can astound an audience, and often really freak them out - and yet, It's normal to us. It never works with the lottery numbers, though.
Devil in details! Possible flaw in the experimental design: The experiments conducted in a college had someone sitting behind the subject, with instructions to either stare or not stare. BUT!!! Maybe we sound different when we're staring--we hold our breath, stop fidgeting, lean forward, whatever. A better design would be "either stare AT the subject's head, or PAST it." Or even better: have two subjects, A and B, sitting side by side, and the person behind is instructed to stare at either A or B. Then we can check for correlations between A's report and B's report (assuming they can't see or otherwise sense each other's reporting), as well as checking for correlations between the starer and the subjects. Practical experience of security workers may be nothing but confirmation bias. Did they come to their conclusions by actually testing? Or were they simply instructed not to stare, because "everybody knows" the subject can detect being stared at, so they don't stare, and the subject doesn't detect being followed, and they conclude their instructions must be right? Of course there are electrical effects in the brain, but those will drop off as inverse square--even faster, because the head isn't simply a radio beacon that shuffles charge from front to back, instead there are many tiny currents going all directions. So radio ≠ telepathy. Finally, assuming we can detect being stared at, how is that evidence that the mind is not "just" in the brain?
Anyone can test this, anywhere, any time. Go to a crowded place where people are sitting around doing very little, say an airport waiting lounge. (Train stations aren't as good, people's minds are already occupied. ) Pick someone on the other side of the room who is looking away from you, or back on to you. Look at the for a while. Time how long it takes for them to turn around. It's not very long - seconds usually. Now repeat as many times as you like. Unless the other person is preoccupied with something that is taking a lot of their attention, like a small child, it will work.
@@JaneNewAuthor Thats just people keeping their awareness of their surroundings in check. You don't just look straight ahead at 1 spot if there is nothing grabbing your attention - you look around for something that would. You also do not know how often they notice you when you're not looking. Also - perhaps it wasnt specifically your gaze that made them turn around, but when they did - they quickly noticed that your face is looking straight at them? Then your eyes? It can take just a moment for that to cascade from them simply looking around, to noticing you looking at them.
@@gediminasjakstas5492 do you do that? Periodically look around to make sure no-one is looking at you? Because I don't. But I do know when someone is looking at me. Most women probably do - it's a safety thing.
@@JaneNewAuthor Yeah I look around passively, but not "to make sure noone is looking at me" - just to look at whatever I want, a bird perhaps. I happen to sometimes notice someone facing towards me, in the corner of my vision, but 9 times out of 10 they happen to just be facing more or less towards me but looking at something else Oftentimes that draws their attention and they look at me, which is nothing magical as I did face towards them and looked at them. People are not blind. I was in their vision already and they noticed that I faced them. Never had anyone ever just magically turning around when I'd look at them and only because of that. Likewise - never noticed someone just because they looked at me.
@@gediminasjakstas5492 could it be that you just don't identify the sensation consciously? That's probably fairly common. In the video he talks about how detectives and spies are trained to follow someone without being noticed. In my case, I grew up in a dysfunctional household. I needed to be aware of when I was in somebody else's way, fast enough to move quickly.

Hello Dr Sheldrake !! You came and spoke to students at a class at the University of Vermont for my father , William H Eddy , in the 1980’s . We had a lunch together and I will never forget the meeting . You put forward then the concept of morphic resonance which still infects how I see so many things - especially your philosophies on memory and the brain being a tuner for memories stored in electric fields around the body has never left me . This feels a continuation of some of those theories. Recently I’ve stumbled upon Wal Thornhill and the EU ( electric universe ) model . Electricity is so imminently scaleable from the electrostatic forces keeping all of our cells together , DNA and it’s resonant frequency, static sparks in a house , house current scale electrical systems , lightning and the cosmic thunderbolts , the gravity and magnetic fields of the sun or magnetars, pulsars and so on . Interesting the ‘resistance’ to his theories and I’m sure yours - fascinating 🙏 thank you 🙏
I’ve been doing this all my life. I could always feel when someone is staring at me, but I’m always thinking and wondering if someone is and that’s how I got good at it thinking about it constantly.
I like how people say that even though the Shepard studies that he mentioned and basically based his video on have only shown 53.1% success rate and only with 2 participants, they have been also critisized for not being random, so this entire video is based on an idea that is false, and people still somehow agree with it without even seeing the sources

I never had a reason to think anything came out of the eyes until maybe a decade ago. For context, I'm a personal trainer, movement guy blah blah. And I observed that we seem to grip with our eyes, more specifically our vision. So we lock eyes with things (say a ball in sports, opponent in martial arts, or even spotting a ledge in parkour or "being a cat"). Once the eyes are locked, we are essentially "gripping" that point virtually with our vision/eye input. The point is fixed, and we readjust and conform our body shapes AROUND that point to get close to it / away from it / whatever the particular scenario.
I have a similar zen experience when splitting logs with an axe. It splits most accurately if I feel the axe position, fix eyes on the centre of the log then 'be the split' rather than deliberately trying to direct the axe. But perhaps that is about making the act subconscious rather than conscious.
I agree with Sheldrake that we influence and are influenced by vast invisible networks that connect everything. Just in a more literal (Spinoza like) way We and our internal worlds are interconnected and expand outside our bodies through reality itself: the tools we use, the stories we share, our contact with every living being we run across, etc. I think what he regards as extramision is the visible effect of living beings having evolved to be so good at recognizing patterns to survive. We have evolved a skin, peripheral vision and hearing that can register a shadow/eye/face/change in breath/ etc. and we notice it in a preconscious level that signals us to investigate. There’s times when we feel something and look but find no one looking and don’t register the experience at all. I honestly feel like such a discovery would make any scientist just want to spend all the years he has shared his theory making ever more conclusive experiments to prove it. It doesn’t even sound expensive. Even though he has lots of scientists against him, he just relies on that one experiment someone else made in the Netherlands. Doesn’t sound convincing to me

Recently while sitting at my desk working, an attractive young lady was walking along the sidewalk outside, on a sunny day, about 15m away. So I took note of that and as I was admiring her beauty she turned her head and looked directly at me, or rather, directly at the window which I was behind, because she couldn't see inside, too bright out, too dark inside. I confirmed this by going out there and looking, can't see anything inside. Zero doubt in my mind what really happened there. Also, this is not an isolated incident.
Wow! This was such an enlightening lecture. I'm surprised that Western scholars are finally looking at consciousness outside the realm of a laboratory and through the 'real' experiences of actual people. This was a wonderful video. Please create more videos with Mr. Rupert Sheldrake. Thankyou.
I think that it is all about atention. I don't see the same way someone I just met, than that same person the rest of my life. When I am not paying 100% of atention, I 'project' an image from my memory. So I would not notice that today she looks different... When feeling insecure, I would even feel someone behind me.😮
11:10 _"People had to guess whether they were being looked at or not in a a randomized sequence of trials. The results were astronomically significant... It showed a massively significant effect."_ But no numbers, eh?
"The NeMo test was developed by Diana Issidorides, a cognitive psychologist, and Jan van Bolhuis, a statistician at the Free University of Amsterdam. The inbuilt statistical program is designed in such a way that if people guess at random, 20% would be classified as having ‘eyes in the back of their head’. Against this chance expectation of 20%, with data from 18,793 subjects, between 32 and 41%, depending on age and sex, had ‘eyes in the back of their heads’. The most successful subjects were boys under the age of 9.17"
I was in a department store once and a group of mentally handicapped people were being guided around by someone who I assumed was helping them buy clothing. I was observing one guy in particular and after a moment, saw him turn to look directly at me and our eyes locked. I felt very embarrassed for staring at him and I looked away, not wanting him to feel uncomfortable either. But when our eyes locked, I knew that he knew and can tell that he knew that I knew and I felt it as a gentle push in my chest. It’s hard to explain in written words, but I suspect that you know what I am talking about.
From countless personal experiences, I've long known about the sense of when someone is staring at me. And though I've never been able to explain how, intuitively I had no doubt that it is a real thing, and that other people (wether they realize it or not) have it too. So.. seeing this video, learning that this is a known and studied phenomena, and that it has a name -- 'scopaethesaia' -- feels deeply validating and exciting to now know about. Thank you!
Extramission is not taught in optics, it's a metaphor to understand how mirrors work. The virtual image is a projection our brain creates because it assumes the light travels in a straight line.
Pardon, but I must jump in here. The 'mirror effect' is not projected out of the mirror itself. We are analog driven (round stuff & circles). The mirror is a reflective plane where the essence of a diameter is present. Because pure linear is not found in nature, we are subjected to a 2-D reflectiive image of what we assumed was 3-D. The reflection itself invertes back at us [that our left hand is actually shaving the face ... for this instance] an inversion of a 3-D image. This is because the mirror is acting as the limits to our focal scope of vision. The pure linear state is unknowable this way, and as we engage it an inverted paradox returns for us to wrestle with. The GEO 600 Radioscope similarly, returns linear data for the far reaches of the universe. This seems to some techs that the universe has an edge to it ... When in actually they have reached the inverted scope where only a diameter exists. These misread data tell us that a Compressed Firmament (beginning at a 6:1 ratio) exists ... And as we also exist on and project outward (the observer effect) from that same plane (flat earth). Pi is a creation.
The extramission theory falls apart because it would negate reversion of a mirror image since if the mind was doing the work it would auto correct but it only corrects for inversion..The idea that you know you are being looked at is nothing to do with the eys,it often applies when out of your field of vision or even when the eyes are closed..We may have a detectable aura,but what we do not yet know is not proof that there is no material cause
Yeah, this is Flat Earth stuff. I think if Flat Earthers could get an Oxford accent behind it, it'd probably enjoy the same pseudo-science resurgence as extramission.
We are aware of the presence of others in many ways, regardless of our vision. Sight, smell, hearing and the sense of touch in, for example, our hackles work perfectly together to combine and notice the most subtle signals. In addition, the memory of our unconscious part of our senses is constantly putting together possible scenarios. The moment such a story can be made correct, we get the foreboding that fits this scenario. That could be a reflection in a doorknob or the reaction of a bird. Our brains also keep track of hundreds of statistics about events and the associated rhythms, for example how many steps away from you a passerby you saw earlier is or how much draft there was a minute ago. Premonitions are built up in this way. If there was some kind of radiation from the eye towards an observed individual, science would undoubtedly have been able to measure it directly.
Only if we know what to measure and how. Try telling doctors in the 18th hundred that there are tiny organisms on their hands that can kill people if they put their hand onto wounds. Utterly ridiculous, nonsense, tiny living things that are too small to see...
I was once having a real bad day and got intensely angry and stormed out of the house. I stopped as if to throw my hands up and scream but I maybe moved my arms a bit and for sure didn't scream, any sound. But I sent something down the street because a second or two after I sent it, the neighbor's dog, which was preparing to bark at me as usual, yipped, jumped, and scampering tail tucked towards its house.
The dog sensed the quality of your energy field you extended outward that moment. It is simple as that. I once let my anger out in the bathroom and it made the lightbulb flicker! That was a surprising ocurrence!
The thing with consciousness is that we have no clue exactly the length mutation is able to travel. Is it possible that we have nerves that can sense the light from another animals eyes giving us scopasthesia? No idea. I like this argument because there ARE grounds for why we would develop and keep nerves that do that. Panther stalking you? Those with the special back-nerve upgrade can survive.
There is no evidence for that, the eyes have no way to produce light and if they did we would be able to detect it, but we can’t, because our eyes don’t detect any signals. Because of this, it would be impossible to develop neurones to detect this stimulus as it doesn’t exist, even if it did, we wouldn’t be able to detect light through our skull and skin, so it would have to be electromagnetic radiation able to pass through skin and bone, however there is loads of that around us constantly yet we can’t detect that. It would be advantageous to be able to sense predators behind us, however it would also be advantageous to evolve laser eyes which kill all predators, yet we didn’t because evolution doesn’t work like that. The most logical explanation is that from movies and shows (you know where the music stops and the camera pans to show the bad guy standing behind them and the protagonist says, without turning, “I knew you’d find me”) we have developed a belief that this ‘sense’ actually exists, and by confirmation bias, we ‘prove’ it. When in reality this sense doesn’t exist and we can only ‘sense’ things in our peripheral vision because the brain is very complex and our vision actually extends further than we ‘see’ because we just ignore it, but when something enters our peripheral and our brain realises it’s staring at us, we turn to see it.
@@sonkeschmidt2027 alright then. How come the eyes can project out that heat then (also heat is not light), and how come we can’t detect it? And what is it about the eyes that make them able to emit much more powerful and directed heat than every other cell on our body. Do you know the cells produce heat? It’s by respiring using mitochondria, now, while cone cells do have more than the average number of mitochondria, they don’t possess nearly enough to generate an invisible beam of heat able to be detected by others. The biggest problem with this, is that if the heat produced (or if any signal whatever it may be) is great enough for our brains to detect it, then why can’t we detect it with all the technology we have. Technology that’s able to detect much smaller temperature changes than our bodies, technology which can detect frequencies completely untraceable to our bodies, technology which can pick up background radiation from billions of years ago, and that can create heat maps of the universe, sensing energy and light from billions of light years away. Answer me that.
I think there may be many different fields we project and interact with. When I was in high school, I was walking home from school and about to walk through the gate of our open garage into the backyard when I suddenly stopped walking and said out loud to myself, "My dog is dead." I never talk out loud to myself, either, so that was weird all by itself. I froze for a few moments, then opened the gate to the backyard, took a few steps and turned in to the walkway on the left that led to my bedroom. My dog was lying dead on the ground in front of my door.
It's a matter of uncertainty but here's my experience My grandparents were on pilgrimage, they didn't had phones so they used to ask co travellers for making calls for them, 3 days they were not in our contact and everyone was tensed about this. I remember I was in salon when I had intense feeling that they have called home, I went home and found that to be a reality. So yeah, there's something for sure which is a fact but out of logical structure of formal science and concensus.
There is even stronger evidence of this in patients who are clinically dead but are still able to perceive things without the use of their physical faculties, verified later by hospital staff.
I live in the US and installed a video camera at the house of my mother in law in Brazil. The camera has no LEDs and many times when my wife watch through the camera, the care giver in Brazil keeps observing the camera uncomfortable because she feels someone is observing her. This theory makes total sense to me.
*I* like MY body. *I* like MY mind. *I* AM MY body. *I* AM M Y mind. ( I am, am I not? ) *I* FEEL my body. ...but... *I* CANNOT feel my mind, for I am it. ...But *I* can feel states of my mind. And still, I can CHANGE my mind. ...and then FOLLOW it. There is always one *I* that appears to be ABOVE both body AND mind. So, my question remains: Who/What is this *I* doing all the convolutions of my existence? If a person has not a natural tendency to be crazy without an apparent reason, following this entire commute through our present understanding of the subject matter, will certainly lead us to the nuts house OR make us laugh ourselves out of "rational" being,... or state of mind.
I am a physicist and I will explain why our scientific knowledge refutes the idea that consciousness is generated by the brain and that the origin of our mental experiences is physical/biological . My argument proves that the fragmentary structure of brain processes implies that brain processes are not a sufficient condition for the existence of consciousness, which existence implies the existence in us of an indivisible unphysical element, which is usually called soul or spirit (in my youtube channel you can find a video with more detailed explanations). I also argue that all emergent properties are subjective cognitive contructs that depend on the level of abstraction one chooses to analyze the system and are used to approximately describe underlying physical processes; these descriptions refer only to mind-dependent entities, and therefore consciousness, being implied by these cognitive contructs, cannot itself be an emergent property. Preliminary considerations: the concept of set refers to something that has an intrinsically conceptual and subjective nature and implies the arbitrary choice of determining which elements are to be included in the set; what exists objectively are only the single elements. In fact, when we define a set, it is like drawing an imaginary line that separates some elements from all the other elements; obviously this imaginary line does not exist physically, independently of our mind, and therefore any set is just an abstract and subjective cognitive construct and not a physical entity and so are all its properties. Similar considerations can be made for a sequence of elementary processes; sequence is a subjective and abstract concept.
Mental experience is a precondition for the existence of subjectivity/arbitrariness and cognitive constructs, therefore mental experience cannot itself be a cognitive construct; obviously we can conceive the concept of consciousness, but the concept of consciousness is not actual consciousness. (With the word consciousness I do not refer to self-awareness, but to the property of being conscious= having a mental experiences such as sensations, emotions, thoughts, memories and even dreams). From the above considerations it follows that only indivisible elements may exist objectively and independently of consciousness, and consequently the only logically coherent and significant statement is that consciousness exists as a property of an indivisible element. Furthermore, this indivisible entity must interact globally with brain processes because we know that there is a correlation between brain processes and consciousness. This indivisible entity is not physical, since according to the laws of physics, there is no physical entity with such properties; therefore this indivisible entity can be identified with what is traditionally called soul or spirit. The soul is the missing element that interprets globally the distinct elementary physical processes occurring at separate points in the brain as a unified mental experience. Some clarifications. The brain doesn't objectively and physically exist as a mind-independent entity since we create the concept of the brain by separating an arbitrarily chosen group of quantum particles from everything else. This separation is not done on the basis of the laws of physics, but using addictional subjective criteria, independent of the laws of physics; actually there is a continuous exchange of molecules with the blood and when and how such molecules start and stop being part of the brain is decided arbitrarily. An example may clarify this point: the concept of nation. Nation is not a physical entity and does not refer to a mind-independent entity because it is just a set of arbitrarily chosen people. The same goes for the brain. Brain processes consist of many parallel sequences of ordinary elementary physical processes occurring at separate points. There is no direct connection between the separate points in the brain and such connections are just a subjective abstractions used to approximately describe sequences of many distinct physical processes. Indeed, considering consciousness as a property of an entire sequence of elementary processes implies the arbitrary definition of the entire sequence; the entire sequence as a whole (and therefore every function/property/capacity attributed to the brain) is a subjective abstraction that does not refer to any mind-independendent reality. Physicalism/naturalism is based on the belief that consciousness is an emergent property of the brain. However, an emergent property is defined as a property that is possessed by a set of elements that its individual components do not possess; my arguments prove that this definition implies that emergent properties are only subjective cognitive constructs and therefore, consciousness cannot be an emergent property. Actually, all the alleged emergent properties are just simplified and approximate descriptions or subjective/arbitrary classifications of underlying physical processes or properties, which are described directly by the fundamental laws of physics alone, without involving any emergent properties (arbitrariness/subjectivity is involved when more than one option is possible; in this case, more than one possible description). An approximate description is only an abstract idea, and no actual entity exists per se corresponding to that approximate description, simply because an actual entity is exactly what it is and not an approximation of itself. What physically exists are the underlying physical processes. Emergence is nothing more than a cognitive construct that is applied to physical phenomena, and cognition itself can only come from a mind; thus emergence can never explain mental experience as, by itself, it implies mental experience. My approach is scientific and is based on our scientific knowledge of the physical processes that occur in the brain; my arguments prove that such scientific knowledge excludes the possibility that the physical processes that occur in the brain could be a sufficient condition for the existence of consciousness. Marco Biagini
You haven't proven that your physical brain didn't just come up with this. You've put some false syllogisms together that imply it, and I'm confident you believe them, but they're not sound philosophically. They are essentially just solipsism, which has long been known to be "theoretically possible" but beyond demonstration or logical proof.
Interesting take, so what am i understanding here is that the brain and consciousness are one, or is it that mind is the conscious that responds to the world around it? I wonder what would the religious community would respond to this i would be intrigued by the answers.
How does your theory of consciousness, involving an indivisible non-physical element, relate to our understanding of machine intelligence and AI? Can machines achieve any form of consciousness according to your perspective?

Thank you very much to all incolved . ❤ it
Materialism is simply put as, The most important part of your living experience is controlled by a part of the brain with no sensory aspects and does not deem the cortices important enough to be told what its doing , It changes state but you can never prove where its at at any point It can only be changed via intense "wishing" Now do you admit to ourselves that this thing exists, or do we say the only thing we will worship is the cortices because we can measure and prove what they are doing ? Or do we tell the slaves that nothing is invented or discovered or learnt its all just remembered Which means we cant sell the slaves the delusion of progress
Now I think I understand my cat better. Maybe she's been trying to train me to know she's staring at me. She's likely aware that, without this skill, I'd be easy prey out in the big wide world. What she does is sit somewhere I wouldn't suspect staring at me, then she meows once. I look around to find her and it's not easy because she's a gray, black and brown tabby. Couple her blendiness in my environment, with my dimming vision, retinitis pigmentosa and cataracts, and you can imagine it's not easy. When I eventually lay eyes on her and exclaim, 'There you are!' she darts at me. I suppose this is my reward for finding her. She's been doing this for years, sadly without me improving much. I suppose this just means l get to be a first meal in a zombie apocalypse.
I wonder what your cat is thinking as she stares at you. Have you ever noticed that she sees things that humans can't see? Cats are so intelligent. Their intelligence can't be measured b/c it's beyond a human's brain or mind to be able to measure it.
@@benton-benton My sister's told me her cat will look at things that aren't there but my cat doesn't do that. Of course she tackles the occasional spider or pill bug I can't see, for which I'm truly grateful. I agree with you that cats are intelligent. I figure they're like 12 years olds and that's why you can leave them alone for the day with food and water. Dogs are more like 6 years olds and need to tag along.

One interesting experience I had quite a few years ago happened when I was cross-country skiing alone through the woods. After going a little ways into the woods, I suddenly had a feeling/sense that I was being watched, or at least that there was someone else nearby. I stopped, stayed still and quiet, and carefully looked all around me, but I didn't see or hear anything unusual. It was a very quiet afternoon with no breeze and very few bird sounds. I continued onward, but suddenly again had the same strong sense that I was not alone. Again I stopped and surveyed the whole area but found nothing unusual. This repeated half a dozen times or more. Then I suddenly saw a timber wolf appear ahead of me about 70-80 feet away. At the same moment the wolf turned its head and saw me and appeared to be surprised. We looked at each other for what felt like a long time but which was probably no more than 15-20 seconds. Then the wolf continued in the direction it had been walking, which took it down off the end of the low ridge along which we had both been traversing. That brought it down into a low area that had accumulated a great deal of very soft, powdery snow where the wolf sank almost out of sight. It had to leap ahead to keep moving through the deep snow, which it would do two or three times before stopping to look back at me to see if I was chasing it, but I was just standing still and quietly watching. Because the snow was so deep, which made it very difficult for the wolf to make progress, I was able to watch the wolf for five or more minutes until it got to the other side of the low, snowy area and climbed out on the other side where it stopped briefly to again look at me for a few seconds before disappearing through the trees. After the wolf had left, I skied down to where I had first seen it and then followed back along its tracks towards where it had come from. What this revealed was that the whole time I had been sensing that I was not alone, the wolf had been roughly a hundred feet from me and had been walking parallel to me, but just out of sight. We had been traveling apart yet together for several hundred feet before suddenly seeing each other. But the wolf track suggested that the wolf had apparently stopped several times, just as I had, to look and listen and probably sniff the air. Perhaps the wolf had also sensed that it was not alone. But I don't think it had heard or smelled me, judging by how surprised it seemed, and how anxious it was to get away from me (a dangerous human) after it finally did see me. As I continued on my exploratory ski through the woods, I never again had any sensation that I was not alone, that someone/something was there with me. I did, however, see and hear some birds along the way, but they never caused any such sensation on my part. Somehow, for some reason, I did feel a connection with that wolf beginning well before I actually saw it and it saw me. And for any who may be wondering, I never felt any sense of fear of the wolf. It is not the only wolf I have encountered at close range in the woods.
I was looking at the moon one night, it was super clear and bright. I was thinking about how far away it was compared to me, suddenly it occurred to me - this space I know is between me and the moon and beyond, it exists in my consciousness and also independent of it , huh. So it exists in my consciousness and I am my consciousness I am also everything that is within and without and I suppose vice versa. I don’t stop at my skin, my consciousness is more than just visual and audio signals coming into my head. Then wham - it hit me, wow we are everything and everything is us. That was the start of my spiritual journey.
The fact that none of that is actually true, doesn't stop you, does it?

Many years ago when I was in massage school we were instructed to work on the area where amputated limbs would be.
One of my classmates had someone with an amputated limb and did as she'd been taught.
The client's feedback was SO positive and they felt like it was one of the best sessions they'd ever had.
do you mean in, around, and on the surface of the blank space where the limb would reside?
Umm, I have medical knowledge and we were never taught how to massage an amputied leg. All I was taught was when to follow pain management, but never to sooth beyond that. Compassion was there none the less, but the damage beyond that was only from my education and the way I'd want to be treated. I have to say, there's too many people in the world (people in powerful positions) who have forgotten the golden rule or compassion to follow laws and regulations for the good of the people.
Read on phantom limb pain by vilayanur ramachandran
I have heard testimonies from nurses that take care of veteran amputees where they tried this and the person claimed they instantly got relief from the phantom pain they'd been having from the limb that's no longer there that they'd been having for years or decades. One of my theories on it is that though the physical limb is no longer there, the phantom pain might be from the person's aura or whatever words you'd like to use to describe it, where even though the physical limb is gone the aura around where it used to be still exists and causes the trouble. Doing this therapy maybe just soothes that energy that is still there that just doesn't know what to do now that the limb's gone and goes haywire as a result. Just an idea though really, I'm sure some internet warrier can tear down my idea easily enough
Crazy that I'm watching this, and this thought is in my mind as well, because I'm actually currently going through massage school myself right now 😂

Woah. That kinda.. strikes a chord with me.
Because, a few years back, my senses were so.. elevated, and I don't know why, that I could smell weather days in advance, from anywhere inside or out. I could hear a sound, like skittering, and have a mental image of exactly where what I heard came from. Hell, I could.. not feel, but SENSE police sirens downtown, about 30 seconds before I could audibly hear them.
I don't know why I was like that, or what happened to dull my senses back to normal, but what you described sounds similar. Weird.
it was all in your head, sorry. No light touched you
I was surfing one time, and I could feel something in the water. It was a very intense feeling. I had felt this very "fishy" sense a few times before and I would lift my arms and legs out of the water. But this time was a little different. So, when I got on shore, maybe a minute later a 8-9ft bullshark came up almost out of the water, so close that it nearly beached itself. It did this a few times before disapearing into the waves. It was mind blowing.
Same experience for me twice but white pointers the size of a kombi van, at a beach where at least 3 people have been eaten by them.
Fishy hmmm...
Welcome to my childhood experience swimming in the deep end of the pool. There were never any sharks in the pool, despite my intense feeling that there were and I was about to be eaten.
@@5BReiningHorsesprimal instinct of watch out for danger when you can't move away quick enough.
When I was little and in Galveston one day, I was out in that brown water. I got that weird and intense "fishy" feeling. There were decent sized fish jumping out of the water all around me, and something brushed my leg. Made me feel sick to the stomach. I turned around and GTFO the water. Didn't see anything but those scared fish, though.
I became convinced of this having worked as a bush regenerator for years. It's one thing to suddenly turn and look at the person looking at you in the street, or in the shops or at a carpark,. But to be in the dense diversity of a forest, and have my subconscious mind, will my vision suddenly and directly to a bird that is watching me from one of thousands of branches around me, never feels accidental! And there is no way I could count how many times that has happened to me. So much love for the birds :) Thanks After Skool and Rupert Sheldrake, love your work!
It happened to me one time I was working on a hay baler and I felt that feeling and I turned around and look and a coyote was standing about 40 fade away when we made eye contact he hopped up and kind of lobbed off. That's very interesting.
yeah? and what about the 10k other birds you never noticed or felt? just because you catch a few doing it doesnt mean anything. people feel stared at by blind persons as well and by paintings and inanimate dolls. you cant "feel" things looking at you. people just developed intuition and a very high sensitivity for noticing and suspecting it.

Dear Rupert, I never tire of your wonderful lectures: morphic resonance, quantum entanglement and panpsychism has given me an almost complete solution to the metaphysical experience. At last, I'm able to sleep at night x 😊🙏✨
I was so certain of this theory in my early 20s that I was constantly scanning for ways to prove it to myself.. I worked in Manhattan at the time, and to the right of my desk was a big window with a view of a tall office building. It was a weekend and i had noticed that the building was more or less empty on that day. While I was working I suddenly felt eyes looking at me. Without turning, I thought to myself, "Okay, I really feel eyes looking at me right now." The gaze felt like it was at the back of my head, definitely outside the frame of my visual periphery, and I determined that this was a good setting for an experiment. I decided that in a moment I was going to turn around and look in the direction of where I felt the stare coming from. I turned quickly to where I had felt the gaze and in the massive office building there was one person standing in a window looking at me. That was all the proof I ever needed to know that there are invisible forces at play in this life.
I think what you had felt (staring) came from that point in the future of things where that emotion had manifested. In other words, you were predisposed to feel that emotion, but not without a precursor to it. In Quantum Reasoning I use an infinite line (compressed) for holding these future states to the static ... and a series of prime numbers for locking the emotion to the static state of things until 'Motion' leads us into this not so far reaching place in the future. In essence, we spiral forward in Motion towards that prestine Emotion. However, during this spiraling advance there are 360 degree precursors which cause a 'Precog' as a prelude to that place on the spiral where we end upSo, that Emotion has already been released. It's only a matter of arc degree coordinates to when 'TIME' we will come to witness it.
@@robertmack4351 i actually really feel this, at least until the prime number bit
@@coldbounce Basically, primes don't budge and make for good locking mechanisms for what is compressed and static (simultaneous). that prime needs an inverted copy of itself in order to vibrate back and forth between analog and static. Now, numbers don't know orientation. they just occupy places, and these places are identical to one another. So, shift that prine around into a composite (divisible) and an invertion (or, mirror effect) opens a vibration via the medium of these spaces that they both occupy. Primes and composites are adversarial and react by bumping back & forth ... and exchanging information this way. So, compression is released into analog also. The Emotion can fill these voids in TIME DILATION this way and return to the infinite line when that dilation recalibrates back to clock time. Like seeing a speed bump from the rear view mirror, with your foot now on the gas.
The infinite line is also the diameter of the circle and shates information these same ways.

Confirmation bias. All the times that you thought you were stared at, but were mistaken, are ignored. You can't feel when people stare at you. That is complete woo.
Or you just heard him come and didn't pick it consciously as a sound but as an emotion, this could have evolved when we were hunter gatherers
It’s simply awareness. Like when a mother senses it’s too quiet or seeing shadows and reflections that we have otherwise filtered out or physical cues that we have not consciously deciphered and the cognitive biases within. Like the warrior training mentioned, it is a honable skill.
Oh my gosh, yes. What is that when we know it's too quiet? It's like I'm picking up on the thought in the mind of the child of "I better hide this" and like a wolf we smell it out haha
I drive for a living and I can affirm that placing your eyes on a person is the best way to get them to notice you even if they seem to have tuned out the world.
Most people feel the weight of your stare, and will at least glance to dispel the sensation of that extra weight. That's when they usually notice me in my work truck.
There is a fascinating video I once saw of a reporter demonstrating how to cross the busiest road in London during high speed rush hour. He crosses like 6 six lanes of traffic without looking at anyone. It only works because he doesn't make eye contact. He looks dead ahead at his destination and bravely walks right into traffic at a steady pace. The drivers all see him and deftly avoid him without incident precisely because he is moving in a single direction with intent and they never communicate. Because if they did communicate, it would confuse everyone and all hell would break loose.
As a driving instructor, i can confirm.
But i knew this for a long time before and i think many others do too.
Confirmation bias. You've rejected all the instances where someone did NOT look when you stared at them and cherry picked the instances that works with your theory.

My grandma who is actually pretty science minded shared a story with me recently, where she said many years ago she had a friend who was on a field trip of sorts with students and another adult, and they ended up getting trapped and snowed into like a snow cave. Nobody survived, unfortunately. My grandma was not worried about her friend, in fact, she didn’t even even know about this field trip .The night her friend passed away. My grandma had a dream that she could hear her friend calling her name and my grandma went to a door and she couldn’t open it and she could see shadows under the door and she kept trying to open the door, but it was impossible.. she woke up to the news the next day that her friend passed away. And remember this was before cell phone so nobody was texting back-and-forth. Also, my grandma shared that a couple of other people had dreams that same night very intense that had to do with snow and people being trapped. it’s very intense, but to me this proves something without a shadow of doubt

Rudolf Steiner said we have an Etheric Body (which is our life force) that life force is what gives your body its form - and when you die the form leaves the material body and the body immediately starts to decay (which it does). When you lose a limb (it is physically not there anymore), but your etheric life force of the limb still exists and that is why you feel it. U r feeling the life force of the limb -- because even though the limb is gone, you are still alive. Makes sense.

Interesting video. It made me realize something I hadn’t really thought about in the past. I used to archery hunt deer every fall. When I started hunting them, many would become alert to my presence when getting near enough for a shot. My success rate went up with experience. A big part of that was I learned not to look directly at the deer. I would only scan past and around them until I was ready to shoot. Then I would focus on their vital area, where I wanted the arrow to go but still not look at their heads. I can clearly remember doing this now after watching this video but I never really put thought into it. It was more instinctive. I was In essence hiding my consciousness from the deers consciousness. Just like camouflage and limited movement hid me from its eyes and playing the wind hid me from its sense of smell.

Nonsense. He's a modern day charlatan and/or fantasist. He came up with his 'morphic resonance' idea about 50 years ago and hasn't managed to produce a scrap of evidence (that reasonable scientists don't find endless faults with). His experiments are either badly designed by accident or deliberately set up to give false positive results, he gathers anecdotes from anywhere and imagines that's evidence, and he finally wrote a book tearing irrationally into "scientific dogma" because nobody would agree with his garbage hypotheses. ...Oh crap, I've just spotted a thumbnail from this channel on Bruce Lipton!

That "being stared at" thing is such an uncomfortable feeling and also undescribable. You just feel followed, threatened and stared at at the same time then you turn around and see an elderly woman leaning out of a window 100 metres away but she's turned away. But you know it: It was her. I don't know why, I just know it.
Nothing is more terrifying than being stared at by your demon. As terrifying as the encounter is whilst not having any connection to your body at all. There’s a lesson in there. Sometimes the demon or entity doesn’t need to tell you something that deep down you already know.
For me my demon is apparently Rangda. Although I haven’t seen any depictions like the demon saw that night I died.
I’ve never been and still not at all religious in any way. Before I was an atheist, now, I’m not sure what I am. But those stories you hear about purgatory and answering for your sins. 100 percent that does happen. It might just be chemicals it might just be a reaction. But it happens and it’s so remarkably similar to what we’ve been told. To the point where I don’t think it’s because I’ve heard the stories. It was too scripted and too out of the realm of what any mind can actually comprehend. I don’t remember experiencing it at the time. I just remember the thought of seeing it. Blasted into a massive bright white geodesic dome then nothingness. Coming to and the next day remembering the eyes. From its eyes I remembered the rest.
I don’t care what anybody says. There’s a lot more to the universe, consciousness and life. We are just basic humans that really do know nothing.
Maybe, but being looked at or looked over someone you know is a reassuring feeling.
@@LuMezIppo could be that the older woman leaning out of the window is looking out for my security. Bless her xd
You're just delusional and paranoid lmap
I have known this for many years, and wanted to do this experiment.
I'm not dismissing the ideas of why we know we're being stared at discussed here, but I would like to point out a couple more things I've noticed. One, our brain picks up on a lot more cues than we realize. Our peripheral vision is wide and there are a lot of subconscious cues we don't actively realize are happening, such as someone looking directly at us that we see in our periphery occasionally as we move and look around us. The second is, I've noticed when someone walks up and stands behind me there is a deadness of sound, even if it's already completely silent. The air behind me becomes less fluid and I can sense it in my ears. Then I perceive someone is behind me. If they're standing facing me the deadness of air motion and sound is greater than if they're turned sideways. And of course someone standing behind me no matter how quiet they may be still will make slight noises that even if I don't consciously hear, my subconscious will pick up on it and alert me to it.

"Several independent experimenters were unable to find evidence beyond statistical randomness that people could tell they were being stared at, with some saying that there were design flaws in Sheldrake's experiments,[11][26][91] such as using test sequences with "relatively few long runs and many alternations" instead of truly randomised patterns.[92][93] In 2005, Michael Shermer expressed concern over confirmation bias and experimenter bias in the tests, and concluded that Sheldrake's claim was unfalsifiable.[94]"
shermer will always be right about this sort of thing as long as he believes he can't be wrong. it's a self-fulfilling prophecy.

I think we're factoring out the Emotional element that always seems to acompany each sensation of being looked at. In most cases we shouldnt expect the target person to return a similar glance. However, The Emotion which had manifested along side these sensations could be what brought us to this junction in [Time and-] Motion in the first place. Each Emotion must occupy a Time lag .. or we might be sleeping. For a moment like this to exist [ - within a dilated segment in Time] an Emotion must occupy these voids, and release a sensation for fulfilling that moment. From the future of things, the same Emotion is static and compressed into an infinite line. As Time dilates, the stage is set for the decompressing of the static into Motion this way. And may be why Time seems to slow for every sensation of shock & awe that we encounter. So, that moment in Motion did not dilate at all. It stayed its course. 'Time' is perception of 'Motion' and dilates accordingly through a compression / decompressing apparatus. This is known as the Fine Structure Constant. The first Law of Thermodynamics is very clear on this ... And is why numbers and geometry take on an associative behavior (unified fields). So, a unified field is an appartus. Stuff in ... Stuff out. That's all it needs to do. Decompress, then recompress back into the infinite line. It's time for my nap now, but I must add here that pi is a Supernatural Creation from GOD.
A large majority of us with ASD regularly experience oddities in life which are shrugged off but when one stops and unpacks the probabilities of these events happening, they work out to unfathomably low chances of natural occurrences. These include Jungian synchronicities, serendipities and razor-sharp intuition that turns out to be true which can astound an audience, and often really freak them out - and yet, It's normal to us.
It never works with the lottery numbers, though.
Devil in details!
Possible flaw in the experimental design: The experiments conducted in a college had someone sitting behind the subject, with instructions to either stare or not stare. BUT!!! Maybe we sound different when we're staring--we hold our breath, stop fidgeting, lean forward, whatever. A better design would be "either stare AT the subject's head, or PAST it." Or even better: have two subjects, A and B, sitting side by side, and the person behind is instructed to stare at either A or B. Then we can check for correlations between A's report and B's report (assuming they can't see or otherwise sense each other's reporting), as well as checking for correlations between the starer and the subjects.
Practical experience of security workers may be nothing but confirmation bias. Did they come to their conclusions by actually testing? Or were they simply instructed not to stare, because "everybody knows" the subject can detect being stared at, so they don't stare, and the subject doesn't detect being followed, and they conclude their instructions must be right?
Of course there are electrical effects in the brain, but those will drop off as inverse square--even faster, because the head isn't simply a radio beacon that shuffles charge from front to back, instead there are many tiny currents going all directions. So radio ≠ telepathy.
Finally, assuming we can detect being stared at, how is that evidence that the mind is not "just" in the brain?
Anyone can test this, anywhere, any time.
Go to a crowded place where people are sitting around doing very little, say an airport waiting lounge. (Train stations aren't as good, people's minds are already occupied. )
Pick someone on the other side of the room who is looking away from you, or back on to you. Look at the for a while. Time how long it takes for them to turn around.
It's not very long - seconds usually.
Now repeat as many times as you like. Unless the other person is preoccupied with something that is taking a lot of their attention, like a small child, it will work.

Oftentimes that draws their attention and they look at me, which is nothing magical as I did face towards them and looked at them. People are not blind. I was in their vision already and they noticed that I faced them.
Never had anyone ever just magically turning around when I'd look at them and only because of that. Likewise - never noticed someone just because they looked at me.

"Consciousness is not in the brain. It is the other way around." -Bernardo Kastrup
Hello Dr Sheldrake !! You came and spoke to students at a class at the University of Vermont for my father , William H Eddy , in the 1980’s . We had a lunch together and I will never forget the meeting . You put forward then the concept of morphic resonance which still infects how I see so many things - especially your philosophies on memory and the brain being a tuner for memories stored in electric fields around the body has never left me . This feels a continuation of some of those theories. Recently I’ve stumbled upon Wal Thornhill and the EU ( electric universe ) model . Electricity is so imminently scaleable from the electrostatic forces keeping all of our cells together , DNA and it’s resonant frequency, static sparks in a house , house current scale electrical systems , lightning and the cosmic thunderbolts , the gravity and magnetic fields of the sun or magnetars, pulsars and so on . Interesting the ‘resistance’ to his theories and I’m sure yours - fascinating 🙏 thank you 🙏
I’ve been doing this all my life. I could always feel when someone is staring at me, but I’m always thinking and wondering if someone is and that’s how I got good at it thinking about it constantly.

I never had a reason to think anything came out of the eyes until maybe a decade ago. For context, I'm a personal trainer, movement guy blah blah. And I observed that we seem to grip with our eyes, more specifically our vision. So we lock eyes with things (say a ball in sports, opponent in martial arts, or even spotting a ledge in parkour or "being a cat"). Once the eyes are locked, we are essentially "gripping" that point virtually with our vision/eye input. The point is fixed, and we readjust and conform our body shapes AROUND that point to get close to it / away from it / whatever the particular scenario.
I have a similar zen experience when splitting logs with an axe. It splits most accurately if I feel the axe position, fix eyes on the centre of the log then 'be the split' rather than deliberately trying to direct the axe. But perhaps that is about making the act subconscious rather than conscious.
This is on a whole other level 😮
I agree with Sheldrake that we influence and are influenced by vast invisible networks that connect everything. Just in a more literal (Spinoza like) way
We and our internal worlds are interconnected and expand outside our bodies through reality itself: the tools we use, the stories we share, our contact with every living being we run across, etc.
I think what he regards as extramision is the visible effect of living beings having evolved to be so good at recognizing patterns to survive. We have evolved a skin, peripheral vision and hearing that can register a shadow/eye/face/change in breath/ etc. and we notice it in a preconscious level that signals us to investigate. There’s times when we feel something and look but find no one looking and don’t register the experience at all.
I honestly feel like such a discovery would make any scientist just want to spend all the years he has shared his theory making ever more conclusive experiments to prove it. It doesn’t even sound expensive. Even though he has lots of scientists against him, he just relies on that one experiment someone else made in the Netherlands. Doesn’t sound convincing to me
Our conscious experience is that there's no outside or inside.
"brain", "consciousness" and also "extramissions" are words we superimpose on it.

Recently while sitting at my desk working, an attractive young lady was walking along the sidewalk outside, on a sunny day, about 15m away. So I took note of that and as I was admiring her beauty she turned her head and looked directly at me, or rather, directly at the window which I was behind, because she couldn't see inside, too bright out, too dark inside. I confirmed this by going out there and looking, can't see anything inside. Zero doubt in my mind what really happened there. Also, this is not an isolated incident.
That was the greatest production I have ever seen. Thank you. More please
Wow! This was such an enlightening lecture. I'm surprised that Western scholars are finally looking at consciousness outside the realm of a laboratory and through the 'real' experiences of actual people. This was a wonderful video. Please create more videos with Mr. Rupert Sheldrake. Thankyou.

I think that it is all about atention. I don't see the same way someone I just met, than that same person the rest of my life. When I am not paying 100% of atention, I 'project' an image from my memory. So I would not notice that today she looks different... When feeling insecure, I would even feel someone behind me.😮

Against this chance expectation of 20%, with data from 18,793 subjects, between 32 and 41%, depending on age and sex, had ‘eyes in the back of their heads’.

I was in a department store once and a group of mentally handicapped people were being guided around by someone who I assumed was helping them buy clothing. I was observing one guy in particular and after a moment, saw him turn to look directly at me and our eyes locked. I felt very embarrassed for staring at him and I looked away, not wanting him to feel uncomfortable either. But when our eyes locked, I knew that he knew and can tell that he knew that I knew and I felt it as a gentle push in my chest. It’s hard to explain in written words, but I suspect that you know what I am talking about.
He was staring at you because he thought you were mentally handicapped...
From countless personal experiences, I've long known about the sense of when someone is staring at me. And though I've never been able to explain how, intuitively I had no doubt that it is a real thing, and that other people (wether they realize it or not) have it too. So.. seeing this video, learning that this is a known and studied phenomena, and that it has a name -- 'scopaethesaia' -- feels deeply validating and exciting to now know about. Thank you!
Extramission is not taught in optics, it's a metaphor to understand how mirrors work. The virtual image is a projection our brain creates because it assumes the light travels in a straight line.
Pardon, but I must jump in here.
The 'mirror effect' is not projected out of the mirror itself. We are analog driven (round stuff & circles). The mirror is a reflective plane where the essence of a diameter is present. Because pure linear is not found in nature, we are subjected to a 2-D reflectiive image of what we assumed was 3-D. The reflection itself invertes back at us [that our left hand is actually shaving the face ... for this instance] an inversion of a 3-D image. This is because the mirror is acting as the limits to our focal scope of vision. The pure linear state is unknowable this way, and as we engage it an inverted paradox returns for us to wrestle with. The GEO 600 Radioscope similarly, returns linear data for the far reaches of the universe. This seems to some techs that the universe has an edge to it ... When in actually they have reached the inverted scope where only a diameter exists. These misread data tell us that a Compressed Firmament (beginning at a 6:1 ratio) exists ... And as we also exist on and project outward (the observer effect) from that same plane (flat earth). Pi is a creation.
@@robertmack4351 Hey, welcome! I didn't understand most of what you said, but you've certainly deepened the discussion, which is good.
The extramission theory falls apart because it would negate reversion of a mirror image since if the mind was doing the work it would auto correct but it only corrects for inversion..The idea that you know you are being looked at is nothing to do with the eys,it often applies when out of your field of vision or even when the eyes are closed..We may have a detectable aura,but what we do not yet know is not proof that there is no material cause
Extramission theory of vision falls apart if you just think about it for more than a second 😂
if your being looked at, where does the looking come from, eyes hahaha
Yeah, this is Flat Earth stuff. I think if Flat Earthers could get an Oxford accent behind it, it'd probably enjoy the same pseudo-science resurgence as extramission.
We are aware of the presence of others in many ways, regardless of our vision. Sight, smell, hearing and the sense of touch in, for example, our hackles work perfectly together to combine and notice the most subtle signals. In addition, the memory of our unconscious part of our senses is constantly putting together possible scenarios. The moment such a story can be made correct, we get the foreboding that fits this scenario. That could be a reflection in a doorknob or the reaction of a bird. Our brains also keep track of hundreds of statistics about events and the associated rhythms, for example how many steps away from you a passerby you saw earlier is or how much draft there was a minute ago. Premonitions are built up in this way.
If there was some kind of radiation from the eye towards an observed individual, science would undoubtedly have been able to measure it directly.
Only if we know what to measure and how.

The thing with consciousness is that we have no clue exactly the length mutation is able to travel. Is it possible that we have nerves that can sense the light from another animals eyes giving us scopasthesia? No idea.
I like this argument because there ARE grounds for why we would develop and keep nerves that do that. Panther stalking you? Those with the special back-nerve upgrade can survive.
That's not an argument, that's a claim.
There is no evidence for that, the eyes have no way to produce light and if they did we would be able to detect it, but we can’t, because our eyes don’t detect any signals. Because of this, it would be impossible to develop neurones to detect this stimulus as it doesn’t exist, even if it did, we wouldn’t be able to detect light through our skull and skin, so it would have to be electromagnetic radiation able to pass through skin and bone, however there is loads of that around us constantly yet we can’t detect that.
It would be advantageous to be able to sense predators behind us, however it would also be advantageous to evolve laser eyes which kill all predators, yet we didn’t because evolution doesn’t work like that.
The most logical explanation is that from movies and shows (you know where the music stops and the camera pans to show the bad guy standing behind them and the protagonist says, without turning, “I knew you’d find me”) we have developed a belief that this ‘sense’ actually exists, and by confirmation bias, we ‘prove’ it. When in reality this sense doesn’t exist and we can only ‘sense’ things in our peripheral vision because the brain is very complex and our vision actually extends further than we ‘see’ because we just ignore it, but when something enters our peripheral and our brain realises it’s staring at us, we turn to see it.
@@NaThingSeriousof course do the eyes produce light. They emit heat just like every cell if your body.
@@NaThingSerious I read somewhere the other day that our DNA can act as some sort of radio receiver. Look into that
@@sonkeschmidt2027 alright then. How come the eyes can project out that heat then (also heat is not light), and how come we can’t detect it? And what is it about the eyes that make them able to emit much more powerful and directed heat than every other cell on our body. Do you know the cells produce heat? It’s by respiring using mitochondria, now, while cone cells do have more than the average number of mitochondria, they don’t possess nearly enough to generate an invisible beam of heat able to be detected by others.
The biggest problem with this, is that if the heat produced (or if any signal whatever it may be) is great enough for our brains to detect it, then why can’t we detect it with all the technology we have. Technology that’s able to detect much smaller temperature changes than our bodies, technology which can detect frequencies completely untraceable to our bodies, technology which can pick up background radiation from billions of years ago, and that can create heat maps of the universe, sensing energy and light from billions of light years away.
Answer me that.
I think there may be many different fields we project and interact with. When I was in high school, I was walking home from school and about to walk through the gate of our open garage into the backyard when I suddenly stopped walking and said out loud to myself, "My dog is dead." I never talk out loud to myself, either, so that was weird all by itself. I froze for a few moments, then opened the gate to the backyard, took a few steps and turned in to the walkway on the left that led to my bedroom. My dog was lying dead on the ground in front of my door.
It's a matter of uncertainty but here's my experience
My grandparents were on pilgrimage, they didn't had phones so they used to ask co travellers for making calls for them, 3 days they were not in our contact and everyone was tensed about this. I remember I was in salon when I had intense feeling that they have called home, I went home and found that to be a reality. So yeah, there's something for sure which is a fact but out of logical structure of formal science and concensus.

I live in the US and installed a video camera at the house of my mother in law in Brazil.

*I* like MY body. *I* like MY mind. *I* AM MY body. *I* AM M Y mind. ( I am, am I not? ) *I* FEEL my body. ...but... *I* CANNOT feel my mind, for I am it. ...But *I* can feel states of my mind. And still, I can CHANGE my mind. ...and then FOLLOW it.
There is always one *I* that appears to be ABOVE both body AND mind. So, my question remains: Who/What is this *I* doing all the convolutions of my existence?
If a person has not a natural tendency to be crazy without an apparent reason, following this entire commute through our present understanding of the subject matter, will certainly lead us to the nuts house OR make us laugh ourselves out of "rational" being,... or state of mind.
I am a physicist and I will explain why our scientific knowledge refutes the idea that consciousness is generated by the brain and that the origin of our mental experiences is physical/biological .
My argument proves that the fragmentary structure of brain processes implies that brain processes are not a sufficient condition for the existence of consciousness, which existence implies the existence in us of an indivisible unphysical element, which is usually called soul or spirit (in my youtube channel you can find a video with more detailed explanations). I also argue that all emergent properties are subjective cognitive contructs that depend on the level of abstraction one chooses to analyze the system and are used to approximately describe underlying physical processes; these descriptions refer only to mind-dependent entities, and therefore consciousness, being implied by these cognitive contructs, cannot itself be an emergent property.
Preliminary considerations: the concept of set refers to something that has an intrinsically conceptual and subjective nature and implies the arbitrary choice of determining which elements are to be included in the set; what exists objectively are only the single elements. In fact, when we define a set, it is like drawing an imaginary line that separates some elements from all the other elements; obviously this imaginary line does not exist physically, independently of our mind, and therefore any set is just an abstract and subjective cognitive construct and not a physical entity and so are all its properties. Similar considerations can be made for a sequence of elementary processes; sequence is a subjective and abstract concept.
Mental experience is a precondition for the existence of subjectivity/arbitrariness and cognitive constructs, therefore mental experience cannot itself be a cognitive construct; obviously we can conceive the concept of consciousness, but the concept of consciousness is not actual consciousness.
(With the word consciousness I do not refer to self-awareness, but to the property of being conscious= having a mental experiences such as sensations, emotions, thoughts, memories and even dreams).
From the above considerations it follows that only indivisible elements may exist objectively and independently of consciousness, and consequently the only logically coherent and significant statement is that consciousness exists as a property of an indivisible element. Furthermore, this indivisible entity must interact globally with brain processes because we know that there is a correlation between brain processes and consciousness. This indivisible entity is not physical, since according to the laws of physics, there is no physical entity with such properties; therefore this indivisible entity can be identified with what is traditionally called soul or spirit. The soul is the missing element that interprets globally the distinct elementary physical processes occurring at separate points in the brain as a unified mental experience.
Some clarifications.
The brain doesn't objectively and physically exist as a mind-independent entity since we create the concept of the brain by separating an arbitrarily chosen group of quantum particles from everything else. This separation is not done on the basis of the laws of physics, but using addictional subjective criteria, independent of the laws of physics; actually there is a continuous exchange of molecules with the blood and when and how such molecules start and stop being part of the brain is decided arbitrarily. An example may clarify this point: the concept of nation. Nation is not a physical entity and does not refer to a mind-independent entity because it is just a set of arbitrarily chosen people. The same goes for the brain. Brain processes consist of many parallel sequences of ordinary elementary physical processes occurring at separate points. There is no direct connection between the separate points in the brain and such connections are just a subjective abstractions used to approximately describe sequences of many distinct physical processes. Indeed, considering consciousness as a property of an entire sequence of elementary processes implies the arbitrary definition of the entire sequence; the entire sequence as a whole (and therefore every function/property/capacity attributed to the brain) is a subjective abstraction that does not refer to any mind-independendent reality.
Physicalism/naturalism is based on the belief that consciousness is an emergent property of the brain. However, an emergent property is defined as a property that is possessed by a set of elements that its individual components do not possess; my arguments prove that this definition implies that emergent properties are only subjective cognitive constructs and therefore, consciousness cannot be an emergent property.
Actually, all the alleged emergent properties are just simplified and approximate descriptions or subjective/arbitrary classifications of underlying physical processes or properties, which are described directly by the fundamental laws of physics alone, without involving any emergent properties (arbitrariness/subjectivity is involved when more than one option is possible; in this case, more than one possible description). An approximate description is only an abstract idea, and no actual entity exists per se corresponding to that approximate description, simply because an actual entity is exactly what it is and not an approximation of itself. What physically exists are the underlying physical processes. Emergence is nothing more than a cognitive construct that is applied to physical phenomena, and cognition itself can only come from a mind; thus emergence can never explain mental experience as, by itself, it implies mental experience.
My approach is scientific and is based on our scientific knowledge of the physical processes that occur in the brain; my arguments prove that such scientific knowledge excludes the possibility that the physical processes that occur in the brain could be a sufficient condition for the existence of consciousness.

You haven't proven that your physical brain didn't just come up with this. You've put some false syllogisms together that imply it, and I'm confident you believe them, but they're not sound philosophically. They are essentially just solipsism, which has long been known to be "theoretically possible" but beyond demonstration or logical proof.
Interesting take, so what am i understanding here is that the brain and consciousness are one, or is it that mind is the conscious that responds to the world around it? I wonder what would the religious community would respond to this i would be intrigued by the answers.
How does your theory of consciousness, involving an indivisible non-physical element, relate to our understanding of machine intelligence and AI? Can machines achieve any form of consciousness according to your perspective?

But electromagnetism and gravity are parts of materialism…
Materialism is simply put as, The most important part of your living experience is controlled by a part of the brain with no sensory aspects and does not deem the cortices important enough to be told what its doing , It changes state but you can never prove where its at at any point
It can only be changed via intense "wishing"
Now do you admit to ourselves that this thing exists, or do we say the only thing we will worship is the cortices because we can measure and prove what they are doing ?
Or do we tell the slaves that nothing is invented or discovered or learnt its all just remembered
Which means we cant sell the slaves the delusion of progress

Now I think I understand my cat better. Maybe she's been trying to train me to know she's staring at me. She's likely aware that, without this skill, I'd be easy prey out in the big wide world. What she does is sit somewhere I wouldn't suspect staring at me, then she meows once. I look around to find her and it's not easy because she's a gray, black and brown tabby. Couple her blendiness in my environment, with my dimming vision, retinitis pigmentosa and cataracts, and you can imagine it's not easy. When I eventually lay eyes on her and exclaim, 'There you are!' she darts at me. I suppose this is my reward for finding her. She's been doing this for years, sadly without me improving much. I suppose this just means l get to be a first meal in a zombie apocalypse.

One interesting experience I had quite a few years ago happened when I was cross-country skiing alone through the woods. After going a little ways into the woods, I suddenly had a feeling/sense that I was being watched, or at least that there was someone else nearby. I stopped, stayed still and quiet, and carefully looked all around me, but I didn't see or hear anything unusual. It was a very quiet afternoon with no breeze and very few bird sounds. I continued onward, but suddenly again had the same strong sense that I was not alone. Again I stopped and surveyed the whole area but found nothing unusual. This repeated half a dozen times or more. Then I suddenly saw a timber wolf appear ahead of me about 70-80 feet away. At the same moment the wolf turned its head and saw me and appeared to be surprised. We looked at each other for what felt like a long time but which was probably no more than 15-20 seconds.
Then the wolf continued in the direction it had been walking, which took it down off the end of the low ridge along which we had both been traversing. That brought it down into a low area that had accumulated a great deal of very soft, powdery snow where the wolf sank almost out of sight. It had to leap ahead to keep moving through the deep snow, which it would do two or three times before stopping to look back at me to see if I was chasing it, but I was just standing still and quietly watching. Because the snow was so deep, which made it very difficult for the wolf to make progress, I was able to watch the wolf for five or more minutes until it got to the other side of the low, snowy area and climbed out on the other side where it stopped briefly to again look at me for a few seconds before disappearing through the trees.
After the wolf had left, I skied down to where I had first seen it and then followed back along its tracks towards where it had come from. What this revealed was that the whole time I had been sensing that I was not alone, the wolf had been roughly a hundred feet from me and had been walking parallel to me, but just out of sight. We had been traveling apart yet together for several hundred feet before suddenly seeing each other. But the wolf track suggested that the wolf had apparently stopped several times, just as I had, to look and listen and probably sniff the air. Perhaps the wolf had also sensed that it was not alone. But I don't think it had heard or smelled me, judging by how surprised it seemed, and how anxious it was to get away from me (a dangerous human) after it finally did see me.
As I continued on my exploratory ski through the woods, I never again had any sensation that I was not alone, that someone/something was there with me. I did, however, see and hear some birds along the way, but they never caused any such sensation on my part. Somehow, for some reason, I did feel a connection with that wolf beginning well before I actually saw it and it saw me. And for any who may be wondering, I never felt any sense of fear of the wolf. It is not the only wolf I have encountered at close range in the woods.
