MOTION MATTERSABSTRACTThis paper addresses changes in brainwave states and presents research, regarding two energy modalities which affect human brainwave activity. One method of producing energy is by altering body chemistry. A second method is through practice of energy building disciplines such as Chinese Chi Kung. Energy produced by both methods creates changes in neural signaling, which carries information as data through neural networks in the brain. Motion from the transportation of this neural data creates vibrations, which alter brainwave frequencies similar to reactions in brainwave activity that occur after human—dolphin interaction. Speculation is that each method of producing energy produces reactions in the brain wave frequencies, which are comparable to the deep focused brain wave activity occurring in humans after interacting in the water with dolphins. It is possible that these three energetic experiences affect the synaptic transmission of neural signaling between neurons. Frequencies stimulated by the vibrations created from these three energy modalities may be strong enough to vibrate aqueous solutions in the nucleus of the neurons in the brain. There seems to be a correlation between vibrational energy in humans and the sonic emissions of dolphins. Understanding this correlation sheds light on the human—dolphin potential for self healing and non-verbal communication. This paper is in part an examination of the experience of making non-verbal contact with a dolphin through the dolphin's sonar. Dolphins visualize through sound. The bandwidth of their sound signals extends from frequencies audible to the human ear to ultrasonic frequencies traveling at more subtle levels. These subtle frequencies influence human behavior as a result of the extraordinary amount of information that is transported at ultrasonic speed. The speed of ultrasonic information being passed at low frequencies creates vibrations which stimulate synaptic signaling. Vibrations in the neurons have the potential of altering molecular structures, thus influencing human behavior to reprogram neural activity for self healing purposes. Such changes in the neural networking of the brain seem to concurrently produce changes in body tissue, thus affecting organs of the body. Beyond levels of conscious human perception, frequencies seem to affect the human at the subtle level, affecting the etheric body as well as the physical body. "The notion that there is a subtle field of energy around the human body, a halolike envelope of light that exists just beyond normal human perception, can be found i n many ancient traditions." 1 As this energy field cannot be seen by humans in general, it is difficult to substantiate the existence of such a field, and therefore difficult for members of traditional medical professions to recognize. Medical research, however, is currently underway by some qualified professionals, as in the case of Shafica Karagulla. As cited in THE HOLOGRAPHIC UNIVERSE, Dr. Shafica Karagulla from the American University of Beirut, Lebanon, has conducted a considerable amount of research to find medical professionals who claim to be in touch with a human energy field through what she calls their higher sense perception. "It is generally believed that the etheric body, the body that is closest in size to the physical body, is a kind of energy blueprint and is involved in guiding and shaping the growth of the physical body." If for the moment, one accepts the idea of an etheric body, and envisions this body as an energy field surrounding the human body, an explanation for this occurrence might be that it is the result of the body's internal chemistry.2 The internal chemistry produces frequencies of electrical and chemical stimuli to the body which create varying degrees of heat within the physical body. As this heat is at the subatomic level, it is necessary to delve into the world of quantum mechanics to understand how the human body reacts when stimulated by high bandwidth energy sources, such as the dolphin's sonar. Beginning with the research of Max Planck in regard to the movement (oscillation) of atoms: "He postulated that the discrete quantities of energy which an oscillator can absorb or emiit are directly proportional to its frequency. Oscillators of low frequency can accept energy in small packets; those of high frequency will accept only large ones. With increasing temperature, the atomic jolts become more energetic, oscillators of higher frequency are activated, and the character of the radiation shifts toward shorter wavelengths. " 3 Niels Bohr went on to postulate his conception of the absorption and emission of radiant energy by atoms. "With particular regard to hydrogen atoms, his basic postulate is that the lone electron may circulate about the nucleus not only in its normal orbit, in shell number 1, but may jump to any one of larger orbits. Any transition to a wider orbit requires that a supply of energy enter the atom to move the electron outward against the attracting force of the nucleus; conversely, a jump to a smaller orbit, nearer to the nucleus, must be accompanied by ejection of energy from the atom."4 "Many psychics assert that there are seven main layers, or subtle bodies, each progressively less dense than the one before it, and each increasingly more difficult to see." If we could take a bandwidth measurement of the etheric energy field, we would find spectral energy distributed in parallel planes at various frequencies ranging from red to violet, to ultraviolet. If there is damage to the etheric energy field, a once harmonious frequency field may then be significantly altered, resulting in damage at the cellular level within the physical body. Each frequency is linked to a specific organ within the human body, meaning the organ related to the disturbed frequency could also be disturbed, at the cellular level, producing damage to that particular part of the body. In a similar fashion, if the etheric field is stimulated by a high frequency energy, in harmony with existing body frequencies, the body's energy field will be positively affected, as electrons move outward away from the nucleus, creating a wider orbit and therefore able to stimulate a wider range of healing effects in the physical body. 5 Primarily, dolphin emissions received by the human body seem to be extremely harmonius with human nature. The reason for their positive interaction with the human species is not completely understood; however, evidence from dolphin assisted healing centers supports that they seem to want to help the human being in almost every instance. Where there are exceptions to this attitude seems to have to do with dolphins being discouraged by living in captivity or threatened by sudden and unexpected move ments by humans. QUANTUM CHANGEThe hypothesis of this paper is based on the premise that matter is in a constant state of flux due to phase changes between the known and unknown universes. Since dolphins are mostly an unknown universe, human—dolphin interaction can be considered a form of fluctuation. As the I Ching advises, one thing humanity can count on is change. Similarly, a change from one brain wave state to another requires stimulus from an energy source that affects the chemical or electrical transmission of the neuronal synapses. Within molecules, vibrations are caused by the oscillation of atoms which create standing wave forms that oscillate from one frequency to another. Leaving dophins aside for a moment, we find that in humans, it seems that frequencies produced by oscillating atoms create fields of vibratory waves across parallel planes. The parallel planes widen as they move away from the origin of the signal and act as echo planes to the original signal. The waves form ripples of phase relationships in the aqueous constituent of gated channels in the neurons as they pass over biological membranes. These transmitter-gated channels, made of protein, produce synaptic potentials. Resulting frequencies carr y vibrational energy across the blood brain barrier of the brain.6 What we hear is the brain's reaction to these rippling vibrations through the central nervous system and the auditory receptors of the inner ear. What we see is the brain's neurological reaction perceived as a result of varying frequencies of light. People experience reality based on the brain's reaction to stimulus from the environment, which is then interpreted neurologically through the nervous system by way of electrical and chemical reactions. It should be mentioned that the human body is sensitive too and affected by far more subtle vibrations than Western science has trained us to believe possible. Molecular changes in neurons are brought about by neurotransm tters carrying information in the form of electrical and chemical signals pulsing or phasing throughout the neural networks of the brain. The pulsing action produced by these transmitters acts as a signaling mechanism that produces subtle frequencies within neural pathways. Beta and alpha, theta, delta, and beyond to an ultrasonic bandwith operating at a subtle level which we have not been taught to comprehend. It seems that ultra-high frequency stimulation creates low frequency brainwave activity that falls in the alpha and theta frequency range. Perhaps, at the quantum level, this occurrence is similar in process to the following description by Stephen Hawking regarding emissions of gravitational and light waves. "General relativity predicts that heavy objects that are moving will cause the emission of gravitational waves, ripples in the curvature of space that travel at the speed of light. These are similar to light waves, which are ripples of the electromagnetic field, but they are much harder to detect. Like light, they carry energy away from the objects that emit them. One would therefore expect a system of massive objects to settle down eventually to a stationary state, because the energy in any movement would be carried away by the emission of gravitational waves."7 CHEMISTRY AND THE BRAINThere is, related to the concept that brainwave signals are altered by molecular motion within neurons, an artist's work in progress, which is the brainwave animation of a neuron. This animation illustrates for the viewer, the affect various chemical substances have on human brainwave activity. The purpose of the animation is to simulate physiological changes that occur in the neuron as a result of altering body chemistries. These chemistries are altered by substances put into the body, and can also be altered when infused with electrical energy which will be discussed in relationship to Chi Kung later in this paper. In an effort to encourage and promote healthy nutritional habits, this animation is being designed as an educational tool to examine and express to the public, effects of specific substances on the body. "The actors in the cellular scenario are the enzymes, the protein-bodied workers that carry out the many, everyday biochemical tasks. The enzymes catalyze specific reactions to create structure through molecular assemblies or to provide the electro-chemical fire to run the cellular engines and ultimately keep the entire system working efficiently"8 Atomic motion in the neurons forms patterns which are collections of molecules that can be described as fields consisting of some number of planes of molecular structures. The complexity of the field is relative to the number of planes included in a field. The higher the frequency, the more complex the resulting pattern, somewhat like a signature created in space and time. [See MOTION MOVES SOUND, P. Kaul, 1990]. 9 Thus, fields of matter exist as a delicate balance of particles composed of molecules bonded by the vibratory motion. The slightest change in frequency will change vibratory levels of atoms within the molecules, which can destroy or knock out of balance an entire neuron, possibly affecting some area of the body sensitized to that particular change in frequency. Some foods produce chemistries which will have a positive effect on the structure of the molecule, that is, the molecules themselves will become more completely three dimensional in nature and more structurally sound. "The feature that most dramatically distinguishes one neuron from another is shape, specifically the number nd form of a neuron's processes. "10 Conversely, chemistries with negative effects on the neurons will break down the structure of the molecules by affecting structural atrophy within the molecule. As a result, bodily function in a related organ may or may not be altered; thus, neuronal changes can, potentially, stimulate long term affects on both the body and brain. The larger the field of structural damage to the molecules, the greater the physical damage to organs in the body may be. Not all neurons fire to produce some type of action. Some brain cells are inhibitory - they stop other neurons from firing. Still others merely modulate and modify the action of the primary neurons. Everything in the brain is very carefully reg ulated and finely tuned, right down to the subcellular lever. Some single brain cells may connect to thousands of others."11

MOLECULAR ANIMATION VIA BRAINWAVE ACTIVITYThe effect that chemistries produced from various food substances have on frequencies of brainwave signals can be demonstrated, using IBVA (Interactive Brainwave Visual Analyzer ) software with a Macintosh computer. A 3D software is used to make a model of a neuron. Brainwave activity can be monitored both before and after eating selected substances. Frequencies of the brainwave signal can be assigned parameters in a program, which parameters are associated with specific structures of the neuron model. The shape of the neuron can then be simulated as altered by changes in frequency parameters assigned to the structures. A variety of keyframe sequences in the animation can be assigned to specific frequency parameters and accessed by changes from one brainwave state to another based on the particular substance consumed by the person interacting with the program. Changes will occur in the animation relative to the frequency changes of the brainwave signal. Negative changes will appear to create the effect of implosion within the neuron model. Substances causing negative effects on the brain create an allergic like reaction, whereby, the chemical action of the neurotransmitters actually slows down the processing of information being transmitted to other neurons. Constant deprivation of data tra nsmitted by numerous transmitters operating in the body creates a process like atrophy, whereby, degeneration of the three dimensional structure of the molecule begins. As more and more molecules breakdown, the molecular walls collapse, and the three di mensional design of the neuron alters. The neurotransmitters used by the neurons for communication also depend on a particular shape for their function, just like protein molecules. In fact, their configuration is so critical that pharmacologists, by manipulating the shape of certain transmitter molecules, can cause them to have an opposite effect. For example, just by changing the shape of neurotransmitters that function to elevate the blood pressure, a 'false transmitter' can be created that will block blood pressure centers in the brain thus lowering the blood pressure.12 On the other hand, substances emitting high frequencies of vibrational energy actually nurture cells in the brain by stimulating neurotransmitters to carry large amounts of data to the neurons. Literally, the three dimensional structural geometry of the molecules is strengthened, and the neuron takes on a fuller and more structurally sound shape, thus capable of storing more information and functioning to a greater capacity. "Enzymes are actually composed of proteins which are themselves collections of amino acids strung together in linear array like colored beads on a thread. The various positive and negative charges on the amino acids, by virtue of electrostatic attraction and repulsion, cause the string of beads to 'self-assemble' into a functional three-dimensional structure."13 While this process of "self assemblage" occurs with certain amino acids, an important aspect of this project is to show that "Many substances considered harmless to the body and found normally in the blood are quite toxic to the brain."14 In a sense, this brain controlled animation can be used to monitor and indicate degree of molecular wellness, and the brainwave animation provides a tool to help individuals alter their levels of human brainwave activity through their eating habits, in that, a visual representation will demonstrate the correlation between substances put into the body and resulting brainwave activity.
CHI KUNG PRACTICE AFFECTS BRAIN WAVE ACTIVITYTo carry the hypothesis one step farther, the brainwave animation's function can be extended to indicate that the synaptic transmission of electrical energy increases in the brain when it is stimulated by high energy sources. Changes in brainwave activity occur after interaction with a Chi Kung master. Photographic images are available which illustrate the effect that practice of Chi Kung has on brainwave states. Practice of Chi Kung alters brainwave states by lowering the intensity of the brainwave signal, and increasing alpha and theta levels. Based on the long term tradition of the Chinese culture, Chi Kung is an Eastern science formulated from scientific principles taught in China in regard to healing and rejuvenation through energy. Out of this culture has evolved the greatest percentage of humanity, so it is important that their knowledge be taken into consideration in the Western world. The movement of Chi Kung is very different from the movement of Tai Chi, as the result is to develop the force behind the form, thus to affect the etheric plane of the human being. Comparing Tai Chi Chuan to Chi Kung, the later is the force triggered by the motion. The Chinese have sequenced together the various movements, the regular practice of which, allows energ y to flow freely through the nervous system, thus energizing the body to perform at more efficient levels. The use of motion to activate healing energy has long been understood by the Chinese who have designed the Chi Kung movements to produce a force which creates vibratory energy as heat, called chi. Chi energy can be circulated throughout the body and utilized for healing. Practice of this type of movement is referred to as Chi Kung. Regular practice of Chi Kung allows the body to develop its ability to perform the movements with accuracy in a manner that is harmonious with nature; thus, the body learns to synchronize with the natural rhythms in nature in order to entrain to the energy of the earth and harmonize with the universe. Prolong d practice increases the energy to a high enough degree to enable bones in the human body to be ossified by the heat of the energy, and thus, become harder and stronger. The effect on the brain is to lower the frequency of brainwave activity into the al pha and theta frequency ranges. The human potential to heal itself is far greater than has been acknowledged through the tradition of Western medical science. The outcome of Chi Kung practice is a heightened state of brainwave activity. As the body learns to relax into the movement, which results from regular practice, the mind begins to settle and quiet itself. In this way, Chi Kung practice quiets the mind. As the mind quiets, it eliminates excess, trivial thought allowing for a focusing o f attention. As the attention becomes focused, the human brainwave activity lessens in the beta frequency range and increases in alpha and theta. When practicing Chi Kung in the presence of a master, an entrainment process occurs between individual and master. The brainwave frequencies of the master will fall deep into the alpha and theta levels. In the master's presence, the individual's brainwave activity will entrain to the frequency levels of the master, thus, an individual's at tention will focus and tune into the alpha and theta states. Human brainwave research, before and after Chi Kung, shows evidence that human brainwave activity exhibits increased alpha and theta frequencies after practicing Chi Kung. An obstruction to a wave's phase creates subsets, or substreams of energy in motion, which create new patterns of vibration once set in motion. " A downward phase trend can be altered by some magnitude of event or events occurring in the course of time."15 So the obstruction alters the motion of time by abruptly changing the acceleration, vibration and frequency of the particles to an entrained vibration created by the obstruction's event, virtually, changing the motion of the particular energy to either a more complex molecular field or a simpler wave pattern, depending on the stimulus. An event occuring in time which alters the vibration to a more complex field of energy will be of a high frequency, thus creating a complex series of reactio s to the waveform signal. On the other hand, an event of low frequency magnitude, would have a simpler, less effective impact on the waveform. The type of stimulus, or event, as the late Terence McKenna (Time Wave Zero Software) would call it, determines whether the alteration of a waveform signal is positive or negative. Entrainment occurs when one brain is associated with another brain of similar chemical and electrical balance. In this case, the multi-dimensional parallel planes extend from one brain to the other producing an exponentional like effect whereby the data from one brain, that is, the signature of one being, combines with the signature of another being, in which case, all of the accumulated data is compiled into a more complex molecular pattern with a greater number of planes parallel to the center of origin of the molecular structure. (center of the cyclone). This phenomena may be the reason intelligent beings require contact with other intelligent beings. DOLPHINS ENTRAIN TO HUMANSBased on my own experiences with dolphin echolocation and Dave Cole's research through the AquaThought Foundation, 16 which shows evidence that human brainwave activity exhibits more alpha frequencies after swimming with dolphins, it appears that dolphins stimulate the process of synaptic transmission in the human brain. Referencing John Lilly's research in regard to comparative frequencies between human and dolphin, in the case of dolphins, measurement of their frequency range i s far greater than the human bandwidth. The dolphin's range of audible perception extends from 100 Hz to 200,000 Hz, while human perception is from 10 Hz to 20,000 Hz. 17 Due to the fact that dolphins, by nature, are able to communicate at ultra sonic frequency levels, the affect of their emissions on humans seems to first, stimulate neurological activity in a positive way, increasing human vibratory levels dramatically, and altering brainwave frequencies to alpha and theta states. The force o f their sonar, creates a rippling expansion of dimensionality as described earlier in this paper and is, more than likely, capable of altering molecular structures in the brain and in the body for healing purposes. The dolphin's healing capabili ty is barely understood by our human species; however, we sense there is something very powerful about their communication and therapy. There are many reasons to further human__dolphin research, and these reasons have to do with using computer technologi es for problem solving on the planet. Rapidly we are leaving a period of time where the primary interest in computer technologies is for entertainment. In order to more fully understand dolphins, we must go beyond the laws of traditional scien ce, which have bound us for centuries, and further define a reality based on quantum mechanics, the mathematics of both particle and waveform. To try to understand the dolphin within the context of traditional science, is not to understand them at all. Fractal geometries have shown us that in nature self similarity prevails which dictates that there is a never ending self replication process that occurs in nature. This realization suggests that particles exist at a level far beyond current definition which particles are also affecting our daily well being on the planet. At the subtle level, minute particles such as these, are coherently bonded together by heat to create the etheric body. It is very likely that, in the future, medical research will learn from dolphins and direct healing towards the etheric body as well as the matter body. As we begin more directly, to address environmental problems on the planet, we look to the dolphins as another intelligent species with life experie nce in dimensionalities yet unknown to our species. The information they have to share with us is reason to protect their species and to further attempts for human__dolphin communication. Their knowledge evolves from living experience in an underwater environment, where gravitational forces are similar to such forces in space, thus, they are aware of the condition of water and air on this planet. Their insights are vital to solving important, life threatening issues now coming to awareness among human s. In a major way, human__dolphin interaction is a necessary link for the evolution of the human species. It is essential for human dolphin interaction to occur in order to further evolution of the human species. _____________________________FOOTNOTES
