All things Interconnected

Saturday 3rd December 2005 (Extracted LiveJournal♦ Article)

Space and Motion’s♣ Wave Structure of Matter emphasises the theory that all things in the universe are interconnected to everything else, even if at just some very minute level.

With that in mind I become to ponder the relationship this assumption has with many situations that has been claimed to have occurred through-out human history.

I consider myself a realist, residing around the binds of truth avoiding crackpot theories and religious ideas. I must though maintain an open-mind, especially when pursuing the truth, under such beliefs that at any time, new found knowledge could very well contradict one or many of our propositions about what reality truly is; and thus we are all then required to admit our errors and maintain composure during the change when realised. Such errors don’t imply guilt in anyway other then just total ignorance of the true facts. Propositions are by their nature subject to refinement.

I watched a documentary some time ago on Animal Planet regarding animals and their extraordinary sensory abilities to detect many things like potential natural disasters and their uncanny ability to detect their master’s intentions to return home even if they are both spaced hundreds of kilometres in distance apart. Many sceptics may assume inconclusive observations, alternative explanations or even just plain coincidental connections of the facts.

I would have felt impelled to think the same way but for the repetitive nature of the observations. Coincidence must surely only apply in total random conditions otherwise a connection must exist, even if this connection is just time. If time is the common connection between these events especially in repetition at suitably stochastic points of observation then surely a connection of some sort can not be denied.

Many may believe or at least suggest an alternative theory. Spiritualism or Psychic influence are common denominators but a more rational explanation is already available.

In a previous article I made question of the ability for the human being to observe true reality as its complete truth in contrast to our seemingly bounding restraint towards our perceived reality. This implies our reality can be nothing more then what we all as a biological species (or even just human beings) can perceive as reality in the first place.

It is already well known that animals in nature contain differing levels of sensory ability and even alternative means of doing so. Who are we to claim that all other species of life on this planet are bound by the same sense of reality of that of the human being? If our reality is nothing more then our ability to perceive true reality, then the differing methods of perceiving this reality would in its obvious means be nothing short of an alternative reality. These alternatives may by assumption be small and insignificant but I believe this would completely lay bound to the species which perceive it.

But you surely must be wrong – you may ask. If such was true, we would have surely identified these traits already. With all our technology and expanding understanding of reality such things must have already become blatantly obvious.In contrast to what? Our total understanding of reality? Many may claim my observations are unrealistic or conjecture by nature, but I would be greatly interested in finding out whether these same people themselves believe in equally controversial ideas such as the existence of God. In pursuit of the truth my observation could very well be flawed and I do accept that possibility. Either way, an open-mind is the best device toward achieving wisdom.

At any rate, I believe all other life on this planet are as awe-inspiring as reality and are nothing short of it. We are blessed by their existence and without them such a reality would no doubt be a rather mundane and gloomy environment. The significance of other species on earth should never be under-estimated, their presence may be more important then we could ever realise. And who knows, maybe they will in time teach us more about ourselves.
