Ghosts Interaction and Physics

Ghosts' Interaction with Physics

Perhaps a relatively more unified form of experience given by a freer level of consciousness operating under less dual restrictions becomes limited and divided as the experience of instantaneity and equal relational balance between interiors and exteriors (and individuality and plurality) is restricted. The degree of separation or reunification between causal and retrocausal and how much of it remains connected would be the link between the Physical and Subtle realms.  

If we knew how to increase the cancelation between causal and retrocausal influences either through individual and group conscious experiences or through artificial means we might be able to increase the connections with the Subtle Realm. Perhaps when - during research conducted at “haunted” places – the room temperature and people’s temperatures anomalously drops (and it is often suggested that ghostly entities are extracting energy from the physical world in order to manifest) there’s also an increase in the convergence and mutual cancelation of the causal and retrocausal while the physical patterns are transferred into the Subtle Realm closest to physicality. Then by will (as normally operating in the Subtle Realm) the ghostly entity releases the pattern and either moves an object, becomes opaque to light, produces a sound, or is able to record a sound in an electronic recorder and the temperature returns to normal. The order and movement of physical molecules which has acquired a different entropy returns to its original entropic state. If the entity doesn’t produce a particular physical effect he or she may simply restores the previous physical balance or state of order-disorder by emitting heat and instead of producing a cold area produces a “hot spot.”

If we could perhaps artificially cause physical kinetic energy and patterns to diminish through clashing electric and radio frequency fields (like John Hutchinson seems to have demonstrated) we might induce “portals” into the Subtle Realm while increasing the cancelation between causal and retrocausal influences. Some of the physical effects (as apparently demonstrated by Hutchinson) include a reduction of inertia and a disconnection from Earth’s gravitational field. Another clue may perhaps be given by Kozyrev’s experiments (described by physicist Claude Swanson) on “torsion physics” in which causal and retrocausal influences allegedly relate in a non-local connection capable of modifying inertia (similar to what physicist Ernst Mach described) can gives us some clues.

Then again, the deep cooling (even felt within the body) of an environment often experienced (and detected with instruments) by “ghost hunters” before or during “paranormal” events reminds me of the “Peltier Effect” known in electronics: when electron flow through two different wires completing a circuit produces a cooling effect at the juncture, some of the kinetic energy temporarily becomes potential and again returns to its original state. Also, if the current flow is reversed heating takes place. During “paranormal” cooling we could say that the patterns of physical energy present in a higher kinetic state are transferred to the Subtle Realm through the conversion provided by the retrocausal activity in the quantum world. This conversion activity may be what some theosophical esotericists have called the “etheric.” No physical energy is lost; it just goes into a more potential (and less presently useful) physical state. However, in the Subtle Realm, the physical patterns (whose kinetic expressions became ‘potential’) were transferred into a space and time free Subtle exterior manifestation environment (that is into a different kind of ‘space’, an Interiors-Exteriors ‘relational space’ or a subjectivity-objectivity ‘relational space’) become more immediately useful.  The kinetic usefulness was transferred into the Subtle Realm whose exteriors instantly respond to interiority or subjectivity.

When an entity mainly located in the Subtle Realm consciously or subconsciously wishes to produce a physical effect he or she makes use of the physical patterns transferred into a Subtle form; his or her environment instantly responds and the patterns return to the Physical Realm reestablishing (restoring) the kinetic motion ‘anomalously’ sequestered. This can be done, for instance, either by moving something, producing a sound, becoming opaque to light, increasing the local intensity of electric fields. If the entity doesn’t produce any of these or similar effects purposefully or subconsciously, he or she might naturally release the transferred kinetic patterns by emitting heat and creating one of the “hot spots” that have also been detected by “ghost hunters.”     

In these search for patterns in which philosophy, physics and a pre-modern cosmology present clues we need to be boldly speculative within reasonable bounds. We don’t need to have all the empirical the evidence to dare (although more empirical verification would be excellent to guide our modeling). I’ll venture to say that, perhaps some of the physical things we can manipulate have a complementary relation akin to characteristics suggested by the symbols inside the “Inca quadrants” and by opposing them they might cancel each other out partially returning Physical Realm quadrants to a Subtle Realm quadratic state.

Physical energy may not be produced or lost but the physical entropy and kinetic patterns of order may be temporarily transferred into space and time subsuming Subtle Realm patterns and be returned (by creating a classical physical effect or by simply releasing the anomalously transferred pattern). A measure of useful physical order is temporarily transferred into the Subtle through the retrocausal link always potentially available in quantum states. The degree of connection of ordinary, ‘actual’ physical substance with its ‘potential’ mirror-like retrocausal aspect may represent the stable intermediate “etheric” states spoken about by Rudolph Steiner and other esotericists. These states may temporarily rearrange themselves into less temporarily stable new patterns when the connection between the Subtle and Physical increase and, when this occurs, the insides of quadrants may become more influential.
