Who's Listening

“Truly, thoughts are things…” Napoleon Hill, Think and Grow Rich

The brain is the controller for all of the functions of our body. It also stores memory, both short term and long term. In many ways it is similar to a computer. I have a laptop at home that connects to the internet wirelessly. This gives me access to all of the world’s knowledge and I can tap into it from almost anywhere. It’s very convenient and a marvel of modern technology. The brain too has a wireless function. Electroencephalography (EEG) is the recording of electrical activity along the scalp produced by the firing of neurons within the brain. The neurological activity is occurring inside of the skull, but the EEG is reading it from outside of the skull. So if all of the major functions of the brain are to control things internal to our bodies, I have one question about the “wireless” activity of the brain.

Why?

Is it just noise? Is it just overflow from the firing of 10,000 neurons at once, or could it be something more? Could humans, at some time in our past, have had the ability to receive as well as transmit? Were some of us telepathic? At one time, could we do “magic” which today, because of fear and neglect (caused by technology) we have lost? Or is this wireless transmission something we will need in our future? Is it something that will be necessary as we move into the next era of human adaptation?

Thoughts translate into actions, and every thought one has is transmitted outside the body in the form of excess electrical energy. I’ve seen bumper stickers and t-shirts that say, “God doesn’t make junk.” I agree and so don’t believe it is coincidence that our thoughts are sent out into the ether. But if our thoughts are transmitted outside our bodies and we can’t hear each other…then the question begs…who IS listening.
