  • In this episode Rupert Sheldrake, biologist and author, debunks the standard view that the mind is nothing but brain activity and argues that our mind is extended in every act of visual perception.
    Rupert has designed an app to enable you to test your sensitivity to being looked at from behind, and to find out if you can improve with practice. The test takes just a few minutes to complete. www.sheldrake.... . If you find you or your partner can indeed improve with practice, scoring repeatedly and fairly reliably above 75%, please let us know by email at sheldrake@sheldrake.org

    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.

    Many years ago when I was in massage school we were instructed to work on the area where amputated limbs would be.

      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

    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.

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.

      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 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 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.

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.

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

      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.

    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.

    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?

      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.

      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.

    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

    I had a very strange incident once. I had a night on the balcony with my girlfriend and we had 2 glasses of water standing outside. I went inside, to go to the toilet & she went into the bathroom. As soon as I got out of the bathroom, I had a feeling that there was a bug in my glass of water. I could not hear anything, I could not see the glass at all as it was multiple meters away and not in line of sight. I told her that I think there is a bug in my glass of water and she was like "Yeah, sure." and probably thought I'm a lunatic. We went outside on the balcony again and there was a bug inside my glass of water.
    The way I explained it to myself is that I had a "mental view" of how my glass of water is supposed to be and since the reality of my glass of water was different than my mental view / expectation of it, I sensed that something was wrong.

    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.

    • @robertmack4351
      @robertmack4351 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      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.

    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 🙏

    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.

    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.

      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.

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.

    I have always felt that we can project feelings through our eyes and in reverse ,i have always been extreamly aware of my surroundings also reaching feelings across mass disstances ,very much like when your thinking of someone and they call,for myself ive just always considered it an ability that most of us are blinded to by our bizzy lives ,this program has been a comfort to watch ,ill be sure to share it .
    Thank you very much to all incolved .

    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.

      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

      The box is a wonderful metaphor, as Paul Rulkens teaches
      This is WHY the majority is always wrong ! his talk is amazing and he added strategic quitting because people gave feedback. Great man !
      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..

      If you had been thinking while watching this video, you would have realized that half of his argument was that the majority already know the fact he is trying to explain to us and it's actually only the stupid scientists who are too stupid to believe his theory. Oh yeah and scientists are evil, in case you didn't realize this from the manipulative drawing technique, I wanted to remind you again that scientists are stupid, evil and disgusting people trying to teach children ehh. Disgusting!

    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. I do think they're more likely in tune with the 'fields' that Rupert Sheldrake mentions though, for sure.

    Two points to consider, 1) Our brains take in the information from ALL the light that enters our eyes but our conscious vision/awareness is limited to a small area of our gaze and 2) why wouldn’t this include the photons that are bouncing off surfaces all around us including behind? Most of the time our consciousness would deem these irrelevant but if consciousness recognized these photons were carrying potentially dangerous information then is it possible it would pass this to our awareness?

    I don't think these assertion are true. I don't think anything emanates from the eyes. There is nothing to say these phenomena prove what he says it does. Phantom limb pain comes from nerves. It's a physical connection and well documented. No ESP explanation needed.
