		<description>I think this issue can be explored with a better understanding of time. And a better understanding of infinity. I ponder these issues often. I&#039;m drawn to these musings in order to understand my own life experiences. Whether one believes in psychic abilities or not for those who experience them there is no escaping it&#039;s effects on your world view. I have seen things from the past, from the present and from the future. It doesn&#039;t happen with any regularity but over my life it has happened countless times. That shatters the sense of time that people normally experience. I have a very rational mind. Many friends have teased me that I am a brainiac. When Tomas Dolby&#039;s song Blinded me with Science came out, my bandmates nick named me &quot; science&quot;. It&#039;s a refrain during the song that is spoken by a a mad scientist type voice. It has been my nature since I was very young and I apply that mentality to my psychic experiences. I gave up long ago on the premise that these experiences are generated by my biological brain. Or that it is somehow a deception foisted on my consciousness by some sort of unconscious brain activity. At this point in my life I can play with some of my unusual abilities. I&#039;ve come to the conclusion that what we experience as reality is an illusion created by everything. That in reality we are in a sea of infinity and out of that sea one thing actuates. Like Shrodengers cat all states exist but by interaction ( waves of information) one state actuates. All possible states still exist. They are out of the zone of time and space that consciousness is creating currently. The past and future still exists but it too is out of the now we are inhabiting. I actually can prove these statements and am actively looking for a reputable scientific outlet to do so. I have tried to contact the Templeton Foundation, whose charter is to scientifically explore these issues, but I haven&#039;t received a reply. I would really like to put these conjectures to bed. I am in a unique position to be able to do this. I will leave this post with one personal experience that really illustrates how much this issue has affected my life and for how long. We all have very early memories. It is often said that memories are unreliable but I reject that conclusion. My father remembers being in a basinet while traveling on an open ( no roof) train. His parents said that he was on such a trip when he was a few months old. They never told him of the experience, he talked about it to them many years later by describing the smoke billowing overhead. I have a similarly ancient memory. I was in a high chair. My mother was teaching me to drink from a glass. As the fluid went down I was gagging as some woukd go down the wind pipe. The memory is very percular. I wasn&#039;t seeing it from inside my head or externally. Instead I was watching from the center of my chest. I was looking up at what was going on. I responded to the scene that I was dispassionately looking at with a thought. There were no words just the pure thought. It was &quot; I&#039;m going to have to learn how to do this yet again&quot;. Suffice to say my perception of reality is very different from everyone else&#039;s. There has never been a time when I didn&#039;t  believe in reincarnation!</description>

		<description>I have always have the feeling that a supernatural entity controls our subconscious in subtle ways.
What Max Planck called a &quot;divine Matrix&quot; could be that entity.</description>
