Love Story: In The Web of Life by Ken Renshaw (snow like ashes TXT) 📕

shortcuts in eight–dimensionalspace. In fairy tales, some witches or sorcerers have magic mirrorsthat they can command to get information for them. You remember,'Mirror-mirror on the wall, who is the fairest of them all?' Well,the one we all have is more limited. We can say, 'What did I havefor breakfast?' and our Magic Mirror of The Mind makes aninformation shortcut in space-time, from where you are now, to whenand where you were having breakfast Youmight think it is a memory stored somewhere in your brain, but itisn't. Scientists with their MRIs can pinpoint areasin the brain active when you try to recall breakfast. However, theyhave not found any area that has the possibility of storing all thezillions of bits of information you can recall. This is a new idea.There is not much research on this yet because we think it issimply a memory stored somewhere in our brain. This shortcut ideadoes not fit the current four-dimensional scientificparadigm.

"Conventional scientists such as physicists,engineers, chemists, medical researchers, and others who believethat reductionist science has all the answers, are reluctant tobelieve that any psychic phenomenon can be valid, because itdoesn't fit any scientific paradigm that they know. They will haveheard many anecdotal tales of people experiencing psychicphenomena, but will dismiss it as superstition, ignorance, or lackof education. Many will present an angry response to the meremention of the idea. They have 'skeptic' organizations that striveto debunk any claims of psychic phenomena. They claim to be on theside of science but tend to be hypocritical in using anon-scientific approach. They set out to prove the claims wrong.They only approach the investigations from the standpoint that itis a hoax and ignores data that do not support their belief systemthat it is a hoax.

"In the film, we show interviews of a fewpeople who report their own psychic experiences.

"The first interviews are with people whoinexplicably changed their routines and avoided accidents. Weinserted some clips of normal people perceiving some event infuture time, that we would call a premonition.

"One is a businessman who refused to board anairliner because of his visions of it crashing. The airliner didcrash on takeoff, and everyone was killed.

"The second clip is a housewife who, for noapparent reason, decided to pick her daughter up at school. Theschool bus that her daughter would have ridden was hit by a drunkdriver, and several children were badly injured.

"The third clip is of a farmer who relatedthat, on his way home from town, he decided to take an alternateroute that he never used, past a lake. As he arrived at the lake,he saw a car with a woman and a child go off a bridge and plungeinto the water. He was able to save them.

"Then, we have an extended clip of experimentsat SRI with people remote sensing targets in the Stanford area. Ibelieve you know about those experiments.

"Many university laboratories have doneexperiments with psychics and other people to test the ability toperceive things in space-time. Little of that research is highlyvalued in the academic community. Largely, these studies document,and compile statistics about observable psychic phenomena. That is,stuff that simply happens that has no scientific basis. UFOsightings fall into the same general category of studies. If thereis no scientific basis, the subject can be ignored by thescientific community at large. Conventional science is an ostrich,hiding its head in a four–dimensional sand."

"OK, "I replied, "I get the idea that thetheory of an eight-dimensional description of reality can beformally demonstrated by mathematics, and in experiments. The ideacan be confusing to people without the mathematical training. I'llhave to take some time to assimilate all this."

"I understand," said Candice, "This is quite abit for one lesson. This is probably enough for oneday."

I agreed. I walked Candice out of theconference room to the lobby to make sure she had her parkingvalidated.

"Thank you so much, this has beenenlightening."

"You might also like to spend some time withTom, my significant other. He has quite a good business incounseling that involves space-time perceptions." She dug into herpurse for a second and then said, "Here is his card."

"Thanks," I said, and she left.

Carolyn cheerfully gave me her "I am availableafter work" smile.

After about five minutes in my office, Zazabuzzed me.

"Carolyn says your cutie is back in the lobbyand wants to talk to you."

I hurried to the lobby and saw Candice with hereyes opened even wider than before.

"Someone was hanging around my car when I gotto the garage. Could you check it out for me? I think he was up tosomething, because he quickly walked away when he saw me. He wentdown the parking ramp instead of back into the lobby."

I gestured to Carolyn, "Please call Mr. Steelin building security. Tell him to meet us in the visitors parkingarea."

"Did you get a good look at him?"

Candice replied, "Not very good-he was too faraway. I recall a white, male Caucasian, about five-five, stockybuild, grey crew cut, round gold rimmed glasses, wearing khakipants, and a white business shirt, no tie."

"Sounds like a very good description," Iobserved. "Dore said to report anything suspicious to her, so Ihave been kind of paranoid.”

"I'll get security to make a report, and I willforward it to Dore if there is anything serious."

We took the elevator to the lobby and startedto the door to the garage. Then, I heard, "Mr. Willard, is there aproblem?"

I introduced Steel to Candice and she relatedher encounter.

"Let's check it out," said Steel. As we enteredthe garage, Steel asked, "where did you see him?"

"I was right here and he was by the driver'sside of the car."

Steel asked, "Which car is yours?"

"That blue Volvo over there."

I thought to myself that it was not the mostlikely model for a car thief to choose in this building.

We stood back as Steel checked under the hood,examined the interior, and shined a flashlight underneath the body.In a few minutes he came over and said, "Two things unusual: Thereis some kind of symbol drawn in the dust on the windshield, andsomebody wiped the dirt from the door, as though they wereeliminating fingerprints.
