Chapter 1: The Connection Between Minds and Electromagnetism

Could it be possible for two minds to connect over distances through electromagnetic means? Research indicates that mammalian brains can interact in unexpected, seemingly psychic ways. A 2021 study by Northwestern University highlighted in the New York Times revealed that:

“Mice fitted with small devices in their brains displayed a notable connection when their signals were synchronized.”

This suggests that multiple brains can align their wave patterns. Conversely, when two mice have asynchronous brain activity, they tend to exhibit antagonistic behavior. What mechanism allows individuals to perceive and interact with another's neuro-electrical state?

Human brains, being far more intricate than those of mice, might be capable of psychic interactions on a larger scale. Moreover, certain animals, such as sharks, have demonstrated compelling evidence for a sixth sense.

Sharks, for instance, can instantly detect prey at great distances through electric fields and specifically through ion channels in their nervous systems. According to the National Institutes of Health:

“Sharks appear to use electric fields primarily for locating prey, while skates utilize them for finding food, companions, and mates. The genes responsible for proteins called ion channels may govern the shark's distinctive sixth sense.”

Ion channels are crucial for the functioning of the nervous system. Their mutations can lead to severe disorders, including cystic fibrosis, epilepsy, migraines, and even sensory deficits.

Interestingly, various psychoactive substances have shown promise in treating conditions linked to dysfunctional ion channels in humans, which may explain their long-standing historical usage. Cannabidiol is effective for epilepsy, psilocybin for migraines, and current clinical trials are assessing DMT for stroke recovery.

Could it be that psychoactive substances can activate psychic abilities through ion channels? Dr. David Nutt, a leading figure in neuropsychopharmacology and founder of the psychedelic science company Algernon, once remarked:

“Numerous medications have failed in stroke treatment, mainly focusing on neuroprotection after the fact. Our strategy with DMT is to enhance the brain's natural recovery processes by promoting neuroplasticity and the formation of new neural networks, a novel approach compared to previous methods.”

His company's name, Algernon, alludes to the renowned science fiction novel "Flowers for Algernon," which illustrates the paradox of intelligence. The story’s protagonist, Charlie, experiences a remarkable rise in IQ but discovers that his newfound intellect brings emotional turmoil, leading him to yearn for his simpler past.

For millennia, cultures worldwide have claimed the ability to perceive beyond normal sensory limits, often aided by shamanic substances that enhance the nervous system. DMT, in particular, is noted for its capacity to transport individuals into otherworldly realms. Robin Carhart-Harris, a professor at UCSF, detailed its neurological impacts in The Guardian:

“Participants often describe transcending this world, entering a richly detailed and immersive space, occasionally populated by entities they perceive as powerful, akin to deities.”

Psychedelics like DMT are deeply intertwined with ancient beliefs in the supernatural and psychic phenomena. Through the lens of ion channels, contemporary science may provide insights into activating perceptions that transcend space and time.

Humans have utilized ion channel-activating substances for ages, many of which hold significant cultural value. In 2008, the Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology reported findings from a collaborative study involving Johns Hopkins University and the Hebrew University in Jerusalem. They noted:

“Burning frankincense (Boswellia resin) activates poorly understood ion channels in the brain, which may alleviate anxiety or depression.”

Frankincense is a psychoactive agent with deep cultural roots in various ancient traditions, often used alongside other psychedelic plants.

Classical psychedelics are recognized as serotonergic substances, influencing serotonin receptors that consist of psychic ion channels. A researcher from Vanderbilt University confirmed:

“Serotonin receptors are part of a larger family of protein-coupled receptors and are implicated in a myriad of physiological functions. Therefore, it is not surprising that dysfunction in these receptors is associated with numerous disorders.”

Will modern neuroscience ever validate the existence of an electromagnetic sixth sense akin to that observed in sharks? In 2016, the Washington Post elaborated:

“The intricate networks of jelly-filled canals within the heads of sharks, rays, and other cartilaginous fish culminate in highly sensitive electroreceptors that can detect electric signals from miles away. Every movement of muscle and fin generates a weak electric field, which these animals can sense while hunting.”

Human brains consistently transmit and receive intricate electrical signals, yet our sensory organs perceive only a narrow portion of the electromagnetic spectrum. Is it feasible that additional complex signals can be transmitted beyond our brains and conventional senses?

If so, psychoactive substances may activate the sixth sense that has connected humanity to the spiritual realm for centuries. However, as Einstein cautioned, the mystical experiences underlying science and creativity have often been appropriated by cults, which can lead to negative repercussions throughout history.

Noteworthy figures like Hal Puthoff from the Stanford Research Institute have claimed evidence of humanity's psychic abilities. It is essential to note that Puthoff was once associated with Scientology, which promotes its own supernatural beliefs.

Tom Delonge, a proponent of UFO disclosures, has discussed the relationship between psychic and psychedelic consciousness. He shared insights from various shamans and psychonauts, explaining:

“When engaging with psychedelics, it seems you enhance your sensory reception, allowing you to perceive frequencies beyond ordinary limits.”

Famed psychonaut Terence McKenna echoed similar sentiments, jokingly suggesting a high probability of encountering extraterrestrial beings with increased psychedelic dosages.

Delonge expanded on this notion:

“The human body functions as a massive antenna. When this antenna is amplified, one begins to perceive ancient and powerful entities, often synthetic and devoid of emotional depth.”

Lue Elizondo, a former associate of Delonge, also expressed the idea that our current sensory systems are limited:

“We rely on five basic senses to interact with the universe. However, there are countless realities around us right now, including wi-fi and cosmic rays, which we simply cannot perceive due to our biological limitations.”

Could intelligent beings indeed inhabit other perceptual realms, as suggested by Delonge, Puthoff, and Elizondo? The release of Pentagon-verified footage has brought supernatural concepts into mainstream dialogue.

What would reality look like if humanity could perceive beyond the visible spectrum? The legendary painter Monet was able to see ultraviolet light, which significantly influenced his artwork, particularly his iconic paintings of Nymphaea lilies.

The ancient Mayans and Egyptians, inspired by psychoactive Nymphaea and other shamanic substances, believed in the existence of richly layered supernatural realities. In the spirit of Monet, shamanic substances like Nymphaea could potentially expand our electromagnetic perceptions.
