Latest / Sri Aurobindo Studies / Transmission of Vibrational Patterns in the Physical World
Transcript
- 0:01The transmission from one individual to another, or from
- 0:05an atmosphere created by a number of individuals together
- 0:09upon others entering the environment, is both a matter
- 0:13for vibration and a matter for actual physical carriers of
- 0:18those vibrations. The body exudes these particles
- 0:22as it vibrates to a particular frequency.
- 0:26They strike the subtle body of others and can get incorporated
- 0:31and begin the process of vibration in those others.
- 0:35Unless we examine the mode of transmission of the various
- 0:38vibrations that impact us in the world, we do not actually always
- 0:43recognize the physical component of the vibrational transmission.
- 0:49Physicists debate whether, for instance, light moves in space
- 0:53through a vacuum, or whether there is some form of matter.
- 0:57The ancients called it ether, which acts as the medium of
- 1:02light transmission. We know that, although generally
- 1:05unseen, we have an atmosphere around us consisting of material
- 1:10elements which carry sounds sights sense to us.
- 1:15Vital and emotional vibrations are carried within this material
- 1:20world in a physical manner as well.
- 1:24We recognize a process of this sort with respect to diseases
- 1:29which we acknowledge are caused by the entry and activation
- 1:33within us of bacteria or viruses or fungus or mold spores,
- 1:38etcetera. These particles, as the mother
- 1:42calls the elements we are describing, then set up the
- 1:46vibrational pattern once they have infiltrated the body and
- 1:50gotten beyond its physical and vital defense mechanisms.
- 1:55We also recognize that sexual vibrations are carried by
- 1:59pheromones, and that the impact of various fragrances or scents
- 2:04is communicated through particulate elements that
- 2:07traverse the air and enter our olfactory organ.
- 2:12Just as pheromones carry sexual excitation energy, so a similar
- 2:17process occurs with other vital forces, such as the force of
- 2:22anger, the force of peace, etcetera.
- 2:27Genetic material is communicated from one being to another
- 2:30through the instrumentality of physical particles as well.
- 2:34This is encoded data that instructs the appropriate
- 2:38functionality in the body to create and reproduce a
- 2:42particular pattern in the form of offspring.
- 2:47Quantum physics now recognizes also that energy, such as light
- 2:51energy acts as either a wave or a particle, depending on the
- 2:57state of observation. We know that the operation of
- 3:01energy on unseen particles of material substance activates or
- 3:05excites those particles and gets them vibrating in a certain
- 3:09intensity. For instance, applying heat
- 3:13energy to water converts it to a gaseous form of matter.
- 3:18Energy is communicated through air, which allows for the
- 3:22atmosphere around us to warm up. This is accomplished through
- 3:26excitation of energy in the material substance of first the
- 3:31water, then the air. The mother writes quote it is
- 3:37the same thing for anger. It is very clear, one receives
- 3:41it suddenly, not even from a person from the atmosphere.
- 3:46It is there and then all of a sudden it enters you and usually
- 3:52it gets hold of you from below and then rises up and pushes
- 3:55you. And so off you go.
- 3:59A minute earlier you were not angry, you were quite self
- 4:02possessed. You had no intention of losing
- 4:05your temper and this seizes you so strongly that you can't
- 4:09resist because you are not sufficiently conscious.
- 4:14You let it enter you and it makes use of you, you, what you
- 4:18call yourself, that is to say, your body.
- 4:23For apparently I say apparently it is something separate from
- 4:27your neighbor's body. But that is only an optical
- 4:30illusion, because in fact all the time there are what may be
- 4:35called particles, even physical particles, like a sort of
- 4:39radiation which comes out of the body and gets mixed with others.
- 4:44And because of this, when one is very sensitive, one can feel
- 4:48things at a distance. It is said, for instance, that
- 4:53the blind develop such a sensitivity, so delicate a sense
- 4:57perception that when they are nearing an object they feel an
- 5:01impact at a distance. But one can quite easily make
- 5:05the experiment, for example, drawing near to someone without
- 5:09making any noise, then bringing one's hand quite close.
- 5:14Sensitive people feel it at once.
- 5:17You haven't put your will for them to feel it.
- 5:20You haven't brought in any psychological element.
- 5:23You have only made a purely physical experiment of
- 5:26approaching noiselessly and without being heard.
- 5:30A sensitive person will feel it at once.
- 5:34That means that the body seems to end there, but it's simply
- 5:39the way our eyes are made. If we had a little more subtle
- 5:43vision with a little wider range, well we would see that
- 5:48there is something which comes out as something comes out from
- 5:52other bodies and that all this gets mixed up and interacts.
