WHAT WAS the role of the human body in quantum consciousness? Returning to Jaime Maussan's video of the mother ship launching and recovering the conscious craft entities, what role does the human body serve? Traditional science perceives the body as a thing, a biological, biomechanical machine that can be regulated with chemical reactions, using drugs. Yet this image of the body falls short when related to cosmic quantum consciousness. The valiant genome project proposes many answers in understanding human genetic makeup while it also left the door open to flood science with new questions. The discovery and understanding of DNA left scientists having to address the issue of junk DNA and phantom effects. When confronted with the reality of junk DNA, the scientific manifesto "nature is not profligate" began to sound hollow. If, as the traditional scientists speculated, nature never provides more than is needed for an organism to function in its environment, how did scientists solve the riddle of junk DNA? Junk DNA researchers argue that the majority, 97%, of our DNA does nothing. In this Buddhist realm of "nothingness", scientist Colm Kelleher speculated on the activity of transposons. According to Kelleher, these useless 3 million base pairs of junk DNA await activation by retrotransposons, creating a jumping DNA phenomenon.
"Only 3% of human DNA encodes the physical body. The remaining 97% of the 3 million base pair genome contains over a million genetic structures, called transposons, that have the capacity to jump from one chromosomal location to another. Transposons that jump to a new location via an RNA intermediate are known as retrotransposons" (Kelleher 9).
According to Kelleher, there were confirmed cases of retrotransposon activation of previously unused, "read junk", DNA. This quantum-like DNA jumping phenomenon bolstered Nobel-Prize-winning scientist Barbara McClintock's assumption that our genetic code or DNA was not a "static structure, transmitted unchanged generation to generation" (Kelleher 11). Instead, she asserts that certain DNA sequences jump from one location to another. In other words, our genetic blueprint changes with this jumping phenomenon and Kelleher believes we are able to influence the movement.
Designing research experiments to track DNA sequence-jumping was most successful when performed as cancer research. "...it must be emphasized that in humans only the disease-causing consequences of transposition have so far been found.... It is very difficult to catch an element 'in the act' of moving to a different chromosomal location" (Kelleher 13).
Despite the research hurdles, Kelleher makes a bold claim and traces this activation process, or jumping DNA, to possibly explain dramatic physical conversions initiated by metaphysical or religious experience. He cites the sages, mystics and yogis who experience age reversion, levitation, transfiguration, and possibly ascension, as possibly resulting from jumping DNA. He seems to indicate that humans can somehow tap the human potential that lays dormant in our DNA and utilize it for miraculous abilities and achievements. As ancient and modern spiritual disciples have long claimed, their DNA changed (jumped) as their discipline intensified and their level of enlightenment heightened.
Awakened kundalini exemplifies another possible DNA conversion on a cellular level. Awakened disciples often comment on the feeling that every cell in their body shifts during a tantra episode of kundalini. As tantra disciple Richard Sauder writes, his body changed with an infusion of metaphysical/physical voltage.
My spinal column was turbo-charged with what felt like 50,000 volts of rippling, crackling electricity that came surging up my spine with an ear-splitting roar and arced out of the top of my skull...my heart chakra was powerfully opened and I could see all around me without any physical impediment... the heart itself sees, with great acuity and without physical restriction, when in a state such as this. (Sauder, 11)
Could the DNA, opened through kundalini practices, be one of the paths toward cosmic consciousness? Kelleher seems to be pointing to DNA as a potential physical propellant system with which to launch a consciousness craft and then recall it back into the body. Junk DNA and the quantum jumping phenomenon may be an energy system innate in the human body. Have generations of spiritual masters perfected this technique until the 21st Century when it may tip into the mainstream? The populated floors of yoga studios seem to indicate the path is opening.
Kenneth Ring, author of The Omega Project: Near-Death Experiences, UFO Encounters, and Mind at Large, compares lengthy and spontaneous or quick enlightenment experiences. The enlightenment accessed by a lifetime discipline of a spiritual master may be the same as the dramatic quickening of enlightenment triggered by near-death experiences (NDE) and UFO encounters. Depending on the individual and the culture, the enlightenment process may be fast or slow, yet the quality of experience was similar. In a technological culture, the increasingly commonplace Emergency Room revival of "dead" patients provides a strong database to examine the spiritual enlightenment of NDE. This research dovetails the increasingly commonplace UFO sightings by our current culture, researched contact reports, and internet email forums as yet another database of enlightenment research (Ring).
According to the esteemed Harvard psychiatrist, John Mack, who interviewed, tested and diagnosed numerous contact experiencers, they all seemed to move through similar stages. His book Passport to the Cosmos: Human Transformations and Alien Encounters identified four dimensions accessed by the experiencers. First, each was taken against their will and given fear-producing intrusive procedures. Second, upon completion and returning to everyday life, they often experienced a sense of isolation and estrangement. Third, they experienced an "ontological shock" where their normal paradigms of belief and values had to shift. They knew they were not alone in the universe. Fourth, after the paradigm shift, many seemed to manifest a spiritual enlightenment. Many experiencers interviewed and treated by Mack pushed through the terror of abduction to experience the beauty of the cosmic source of their being. They also began to experience a consciousness that could separate from and return to their body. This consciousness could live in multiple universes simultaneously (Mack ).
The separation and return of consciousness that Mack describes reflects the experience of the mother ship and the consciousness craft. His research nudges us to ponder whether we as a species are being "pushed" into a spiritual awakening through UFO, contact encounters as well as
Near-Death Experiences. Our species is not only accelerating our economic wealth, our collection of data information, our speed of travel, we are also accelerating our spiritual evolution. What once required a lifetime of disciplined, isolated, rigorous prayer and self-denial now was accomplished by an almost-overnight NDE or close encounter. As DNA research opens human physical possibilities, our fears and limitations fade. We no longer need to limit or block our evolution; we simply need to jump into a new consciousness propelled by the power of our DNA.
Two streams -- DNA and consciousness -- are merging. Yet the merging is often perceived as chaotic and oppositional. Is our scientific understanding of the potential power of our DNA influencing our understanding of the enlightenment phenomenon? Or is the inflating scientific database driving our need to make sense of our human potential? Regardless of the origin, 21st-Century humans seem quick to convert their image of their human body into a quantum field of potential rather than a biological machine.
Beyond our consciousness, brain and mind, our entire body is involved in exoconsciousness. As the kundalini experience highlights, our heart energies also seem integrally involved in raising our body's frequency to manufacture a consciousness propellant. 21st-Century physicians are beginning to take apart the body's engine -- not as mechanic, piece by piece, organ by organ, but as quantum physicians -- energy by energy, frequency by frequency. The DNA phantom effect studies the quantum quality inherent in our physical bodies.
DNA phantom effect as researched by Vladimir Poponin and Kirlian photography presents the best evidence to date of the quantum subtle energy phenomenon in our genetic makeup. In the 1990s the Russian researcher Poponin discovered an amazing relationship between DNA and light. He developed a series of experiments to research the patterns of light in the controlled environment of a vacuum. Under the vacuum conditions the light fell into a random distribution. He then placed physical samples of DNA into the chamber and found that in the presence of genetic material, the patterns of the light particles shifted. The random pattern changed with the presence of DNA. A new pattern emerged resembling waves as they crested and fell. When DNA was withdrawn, he assumed the light would revert to the prior random distribution, but instead a new pattern emerged. The presence of DNA affected the light photons even after it was withdrawn (Poponin). Did DNA possess a force that lingered long after the genetic material was withdrawn? If so, what does this say about the power of our body's presence in the physical world? The presence of our DNA seems to have a measurable effect in the physical world. If this effect can be measured, it can be understood. If it can be understood, it can be used effectively. The human heart is the starting point.
California researchers adopted the discoveries of Kirlian photography and Poponin's DNA phantom effect to create a new understanding of the power of the human heart. The Heartmath project wanted to harness the power of the heart frequencies to accelerate and heal the body. As with kundalini experience, Heartmath researchers determined that the heart possesses the most powerful electrical field in the body. This powerful field coming from the heart also has the ability to entrain or bring other energy systems in the body into its frequency. Like a mother with a fussy child, properly used, our heart pulls the disparate energy systems in our body into a higher harmony. This included the brain. In an electrical sense, our hearts rule our heads.
In The Hidden Power of the Heart, Heartmath researchers also needed to incorporate the quantum model to understand the energy field of the heart. They too turned to genetic research to understand how the powerful DNA blueprint in each and every cell of the human body holds the perfect image of the total body as a holographic template. Kirlian or holographic photography demonstrated a phantom effect that lingered when a leaf was cut. The Kirlian phantom leaf effect occurred when a researcher photographed a leaf with a hole cut in the center. Instead of a marred leaf, holographic photography revealed the whole, perfect leaf. Once again evidence seemed to indicate that within the DNA structure of every living thing a force remains after the genetic substance is withdrawn (Paddison 167).
Is our DNA a product of our extraterrestrial nature? As we become familiar with our intergalactic self, the power inherent in our DNA may be used more effectively. A group of extraterrestrial researchers investigates ancient myths of human origins to find whether a common extraterrestrial thread weaves the story of our beginnings.
