morphogenetic field

Now what I want to get back to is the idea of a global organism;. a group thoughtform. Rupert Sheldrake coined the term morphogenetic fields which I admit is only based on a theory and to some a shaky theory it is none the less intereting food for thought. His experiments dealt with the study of animals and how behavior is learned. A certain monkey on a remote island chain in I want to say the South Pacific started cleaning off leaves before eating them. Other monkeys observed this and also took on the habit but the really remarkable discovery by scientist who were studying the monkeys is when they found out that monkeys on all the other remote islands also picked up this habit. There was another observation made after World War II in England dealing with birds who learned to open milk bottles but I won't go into that. To support this finding I want to turn your attention to the book "The secret life of Plants" by Peter Tompkins written in 1989 which dealt with using biofeedback meters to detect and prove that a plant will scream or at least feel something akin to pain,fear, etc when another plant which part of its kin; perhaps a cutting from the first plant is placed half way around the world (any distance it doesnt matter) and chopped to bits. |
