My perception of this stuff:
It seems to me that everything is vibrating energy. Atoms I would visualize as being more like ripples when a rock is dropped in water. The rippling substance is spacetime which I think is the quantum flux (
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_fluctuation ). These virtual particles are peaks and troughs in the vibrating energy sea called spacetime.
Our bodies are made from atoms and atoms are these miniature pools of vibrational harmonics. These are receptive to and can broadcast into this spacetime sea.
Our bodies are the natural evolution of life from these primordial vibrations cause by the big bang. Upon this consciousness emerges, a coherent arrangement of energy fluctuations in the sea of random energy. We are intimately connected to this sea and by extension to other consciousnesses in that sea. Further when we die the "echo" of our consciousness can still exist in that sea and with sufficient intent (Will) remain coherent. It does not have the gross arrangement of atoms but the more subtle arrangement of quantum flux virtual "particles"/ripples.
This nebulousness of the quantum flux means that consciousness doesn't have strict boundaries, just like an arrangement of water in the ocean does not have strict boundaries. It is when we use atoms as a container or focal point that the atoms become a perception or proxy for strict boundaries of individuality. I speculate that this is one way nature is evolving new consciousnesses into existence.
The brain being electrical can broadcast and receive signals from this sea. And just like an antenna, if it is transmitting it is not receiving. A meditation like state is where you stop transmitting and start receiving, e.g. dreaming. But reception alone is not enough, your equipment needs to be tuned (
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remote_viewing ) or you are just perceiving random anything.
Consciousness is nebulous, and Will is the intent to self organize the sea of energy into consciousness, this is also called sanity. Therefore you can emerge multiple consciousnesses from the sea of energy with Will power. This can be viewed as multiple personality disorder or creating a new consciousness. It is the same thing said different ways.
People can therefore broadcast thought waveforms into this sea collectively and makes gods or devils. People die and can exist still due to intense will. This is why places of evil can remain haunted. These in turn can willfully concentrate there energy back on to people. But it is much more difficult for the finer quantum flux to knock around the cruder bulkier atoms.
http://www.thescoleexperiment.com/the-scole-experiment-overview.htmlI personally have done meditation when younger and had voices talk to me seemingly audibly. These days I use the concepts above to scan for information when I am stuck in research, sometimes with surprising suggestions. I also "imagine" beings into existence and converse with them. Epona is very pleasant to talk to, and it can be interesting to get suggestions counter to your intentions and deal with that.
The Vril women grew long hair to act as antenna for psychic perceptions. If the quantum flux is a medium to convey information and hair is connected somewhat near the brain, it isn't completely dismissible.
