GloBall Literature Review
A recent CNN article related that even monkeys perform better on memory tests than humans. For readers that benefit from this Blog, Phunny Physics and Mystical Math are now joined by GloBall Literature Reveiw. I would like to share a joke and we all know a joke is only funny when it’s shared.
Clearly, the media has had people so enrapt of typical media ‘fodder’ faire (oh, yeah, I wanna know more about Paris and Brittany, and the ‘Great Satan’ overseas) that they don’t know what’s been in the Books for centuries, (doesn’t anybody read any more?)
The concept of the multiverse is spoken of in no uncertain terms and never more clearly than the following passage:
Quran
Talaaq (Divorce)
65:12 God who created seven (multiple) heavens and the like from the Earth, His Decree flows from on High through all of them (no exact match for the Ar. word
(َ يَتَنَزَّلُ but perhaps, propagates/permeates throughout His domains), so that you come to know that God has Power over Everything and that God can Encompass Everything within His Knowledge
اللَّهُ الَّذِي خَلَقَ سَبْعَ سَمَاوَاتٍ وَمِنَ الْأَرْضِ مِثْلَهُنَّ يَتَنَزَّلُ الْأَمْرُ بَيْنَهُنَّ لِتَعْلَمُوا أَنَّ اللَّهَ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ وَأَنَّ اللَّهَ قَدْ أَحَاطَ بِكُلِّ شَيْءٍ عِلْمًا
And the ability to traverse these has been rendered in such ridiculous, depressing and far-fetched translations as to make even me, someone with ‘mon key brains’, wax philosophical. (The following interpretations are based on close literal translations (as close as you can get with Google language tools and working with an elliptical language such as Arabic)
Ra'd (Thunder)
13:41 Or don’t they see how we come to (visit) the Earth, reducing it from its edges (shortening, bridging its edges), and God governs and there is no postponing His accounting (decree) and He is swift at calculating (being accounted to)
يرواانا ناتي الارض ننقصها من اطرافها والله يحكم لامعقب لحكمه وهو سريع الحساب
Anbiya (The Prophets)
21:44 But we allowed these groups and their parents/forefathers so their age was lengthened--do they not see how we come to (visit) the Earth, reducing it from its edges (shortening, bridging its edges)? Are they the Conquerors/Victors?
بل متعنا هؤلاء واباءهم حتى طال عليهم العمر افلا يرون انا ناتي الارض ننقصها من اطرافها افهم الغالبون
If you would like to read more about the body of literature on the concept of ‘Tay-Al-Ard’, or the ‘folding of the earth’, here is a good place to start.
On a personal note, I think this would be a good place to remind our children that there is more to them and their lives than what they can buy, wear, drive or consume--and just what it means to be a human.

Blue Ball Orange Ball
I searched my correspondence file and found this from Alan Bennett (http://www.solargeometry.com/). I think the blue ball at the gas station has generated enough excitement that this information seems timely.
I copied this so as not to have to rewrite it.
***************************************************************
I am writing from Port Aransas, Texas. PA is at the mouth of the Corpus Christi Ship Channel and the Gulf Intracoastal waterway. These days I am the concessions manager on a 70 ft. catamaran fishing boat. We take tourists fishing to 40 plus miles offshore.
Since you asked, I will tell you about what I now call " Orange Ball Day ".
On or about November 20, 1975, I was captain on an 80 ft. crew boat, " The Wilderness ", working out of Port O'Connor, Texas. About 10:30 PM we were returning from a run out to Mallard 33, a shallowwater jack up rig about 3 miles offshore and 20 miles on the Galveston side of the Matagorda Ship Channel, the entry point from the Gulf into Port O'Connor.
It had been an uneventful trip with minimal winds and seas. We were gliding along at 22 knots and I was simply watching to make sure we weren't going to collide with anything.
My engineer was asleep in a cot behind the helm and my deckhand asleep in his cot below in the galley.
I happened to look to my starboard. Already there right out my starboard window was a dimly glowing orange sphere about fifteen times the diameter of the full moon. It pulsated in brightening and dimming in an irregular pulsation. Its appearance was as though you had reached into a barbeque pit at night with a pair of tongs and brought out a briquet and watched the color changes that occured as the air blew over it. And it was cruising alongside of us at our speed.
I can assure you I had never in my life seen anything like that. I decided that the way to make sure I was not hallucinating was to wake my engineer, so I turned around and reached over and shook him: " Hey, Moose... look at this!! "
As soon as he opened his eyes he was looking at it... and he came flying up out of a dead sleep and stood there looking at it, and I had my answer... it was really out there.
Both of us remained silent for the next few minutes. It was me who spoke first, even as we both continued to watch this sphere. " I'm going to throw my light on it and see what happens".
I set the Azimuth on the my spotlight and swung it around sideways so that when I turned the spot on it would illuminate the sphere. My intent was to flip the light on-off-on-off a few times
as if to say " We see you. Now what? "
I flipped on the switch...the spotlight ray went right to the sphere and it simultaneuously, and instantaneously, vanished right before our eyes. This is something maybe 100 feet across.
I grabbed the throttles and stopped the boat dead in the water. We both went outside and scanned the night sky but the object was gone and it did not return. ( Visually, at least ).
Not caring to bore you with further details, I will point out that mathematics and geometry started issuing from my brain a few days later. I took the view then as I do now that this encounter had something to do with that, so I began a long process of trial and error which resulted in the things you have seen on this site.
I invite you, xxxxx, to take your time and review the elucidations planet by planet. I now know they were considered enlightenment itself in several cultures. I personally especially like the
drawing " Mercury, Venus, Earth, the Tai Chi and the Decimal System. " The positions along the NS axis representing the Sun, Mercury, Venus and the Earth are faithfully to correct scale and the distances between each pair are different along that line.
Sun-Mercury distance= 1.0000000000
Mercury-Venus distance= .866025404
Venus-Earth distance=.7172803076
But look what happens when you swing them with a compass to the circumference of a circle with a radius of (orbital distance Venus) to the .75 power. They form seven of the decimal divisions of that circle, taking up equal divisions along the circumference.
If this Earth follows a cosmic star law (and it does) and if it is infinite in number because of this (and it is) then you and I have been here forever and will be, forever. And this is enlightenment.
Thank you again. I look forward to hearing from you again.
My best to you,

Heaven and High Dimension
Here I have been discussing life after death in laymen’s terms and anecdotal first-hand experience. Imagine my surprise to hear this chat taking place, however reluctantly, in our pantheons of science and technology. I am speaking about non other than renowned physicist and modern thinker Lisa Randall, currently at Harvard University.
While Randall was recently given the honor of making Time Magazines 100 Most Influential people for her work regarding the evidence of a ‘high dimension’ (May 14, 2007), her answer to the ‘big question’ is “You know, all the work I've done makes me think the existence of God less likely," she says. "I want solutions and God just seems like such a cop-out." (Tuesday June 21, 2005The Guardian)
Having never met Randall, I can’t help but like her, even if she’s not from Brooklyn. So, I’d like to say ‘higher dimension’ is nothing more than what us laics have learned to call ‘heaven’ and as for that ‘G-d’ issue, it is best to remind our friends that when things are done right, it appears as if you have done nothing at all. I hope G forgives me for giving up his? modus operandi.
Regarding Randall’s views on multiple dimensions, in the same article in The Guardian ‘Randall is happy to take a pop at string theorists who talk of 10 or 11 dimensions when "nobody really knows how string theory actually works", and she has no time for ideas that incorporate small dimensions. "Who cares about a dimension that is too small to be relevant to anything?"‘ Here is my answer to her question, “We non-entities that travel through it.” And in my answer many will see the difference between a scientist and an engineer.
If you are reading this Lisa, I have to finish by saying I have nothing but the greatest deal of respect for you.

Life After Death
What follows is the Faith-Based answer to the niggling question, Is there Life after Death? You don't have to look far for the synopsis of the scientific argument. There also appears to be a first hand account of a life after death experience in the Maxie Time diary.
Life After Death
Resurrection In The Old Testament
Job 14:14-15
If a man die, shall he live again? all the days of my appointed time will I wait, til my change come. Thou shalt call, and I will answer thee; thou wilt have a desire to the work of thine hands.
Job 19:25-27
I know that my redeemer lives, and that he shall stand at the latter day upon the earth: And though after my skin worms destroy this body, yet in my flesh shall I see God: Whom I shall see for myself, and mine eyes shall behold, and not another; though my reins be consumed within me.
Psalm 17:15
As for me, I will behold thy face in righteousness: I shall be satisfied, when I awake, with thy likeness.
Isaiah 25:8
He will swallow up death in victory; and the Lord God will wipe away tears from off all faces.
Isaiah 26:19
Thy dead men shall live, together with my dead body shall they arise. Awake and sing, ye that dwell in dust: for thy dew is as the dew of herbs, and the earth shall cast out the dead.
Daniel 12:2
And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt. And they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to righteousness as the stars for ever and ever.
Hosea 13:14
I will ransom them from the power of the grave; I will redeem them from death: O Death, I will be thy plagues; O grave, I will be thy destruction.
Resurrection In The New Testament
1 Corinthians 15 (New International Version)
The Resurrection of Christ
1 Corinthians 15:3-8
For what I received I passed on to you as of first importance; that Christ died…
that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures
and that he appeared to Peter, and then to the Twelve.
After that, he appeared to more than five hundred of the brothers at the same time, most of whom are still living, though some have fallen asleep.
Then he appeared to James, then to all the apostles,
and last of all he appeared to me…
The Resurrection of the Dead
1 Corinthians 15:12-15
But if it is preached that Christ has been raised from the dead, how can some of you say that there is no resurrection of the dead?
If there is no resurrection of the dead, then not even Christ has been raised.
And if Christ has not been raised, our preaching is useless and so is your faith.
More than that, we are then found to be false witnesses about God, for we have testified about God that he raised Christ from the dead. But he did not raise him if in fact the dead are not raised.
The Resurrection Body
1 Corinthians 15:35-37
But someone may ask, "How are the dead raised? With what kind of body will they come?"
How foolish! What you sow does not come to life unless it dies.
When you sow, you do not plant the body that will be, but just a seed…
1 Corinthians 15:51-53
Listen, I tell you a mystery: We will not all sleep, but we will all be changed—
in a flash, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, the dead will be raised imperishable, and we will be changed.
For the perishable must clothe itself with the imperishable, and the mortal with immortality.
Resurrection In The Quran
Al-Baqara (The Cow) 2:259
Or [art thou of the same mind] as he who passed by a town deserted by its people, with its roofs caved in, [and] said, "How could God bring all this back to life after its death?" Thereupon God caused him to be dead for a hundred years; where after He brought him back to life [and] said: "How long hast thou remained thus?" He answered: "I have remained thus a day, or part of a day." Said [God]: "Nay, but thou hast remained thus for a hundred years! But look at thy food and thy drink-untouched is it by the passing of years ....And [We did all this so that We might make thee a symbol unto men. And look at the bones [of animals and men] - how We put them together and then clothe them with flesh!" And when [all this] became clear to him, he said: "I know [now] that God has the power to will anything!"
Al-An'am (The Cattle) 6:36
Only they who listen can respond to a call; and as for the dead, God can raise them from the dead, whereupon unto Him they shall return.
Al-A'raf (The Heights) 7:57
And He it is who sends forth the winds as a glad tiding of His coming grace-so that, when they have brought heavy clouds, We may drive them towards dead land and cause thereby water to descend; and by this means do We cause all manner of fruit to come forth. Even thus shall We cause the dead to come forth: [and this] you ought to keep in mind.
Hud (The Prophet Hud) 11:7
And He it is who has created the heavens and the earth in six aeons; and [ever since He has willed to create life,] the throne of His almightiness has rested upon water. In order to test you which of you is best in conduct. For thus it is: if thou sayest, "Behold, you shall be raised again after death!" - they who are bent on denying the truth are sure to answer, "This is clearly nothing but an enchanting delusion"
Abraham 14:48
On the day when the earth will be changed to another earth, and the heavens (also will be changed) and they will come forth before God, the One, the Almighty (the Conqueror) .
An-Nahl (The Bee) 16:38
As it is, they swear by God with their most solemn oaths, "Never will God raise from the dead anyone who has died!" Yea indeed! [This very thing has God promised] by a promise which He has willed upon Himself; but most people know it not.
Al-Isra (The Journey by Night) 17:50
Say: [You will be raised from the dead even though] you be stones or iron
Al-Isra (The Journey by Night) 17:52
on a Day when God will call you, and you will answer by praising Him, thinking all the while that you have tarried [on earth] but a little while.
Al-Hajj (The Pilgrimage) 22:5
O MEN! If you are in doubt as to the resurrection verily, We have created [every one of] you out of dust, then out of a drop of sperm, then out of that which clings, then out of an embryonic lump complete] and yet incomplete so that We might make clear unto you. And whatever We will We cause to rest in the wombs for a term set [by Us], and then We bring you forth as infants and so that you might attain to maturity: for among you are such as are caused to die, just as many a one of you is reduced in old age to a most abject state, ceasing to know anything of what he once knew so well. And thou canst see the earth dry and lifeless - and when We send down waters upon it, it stirs and swells and puts forth every kind of lovely plant!
Al-Hajj (The Pilgrimage) 22:6-7
All this [happens] because God alone is the Ultimate Truth, and because He alone brings the dead to life, and because He has the power to will anything.
And that the Last Hour is bound to come, beyond any doubt, and that God will resurrect all who are in their graves.
Al-Furqan 25:47
And God it is who makes the night a garment for you and sleep a rest, and causes every day to be a resurrection.
An-Naml (The Ants) 27:65
Say: “None in the heavens or on earth knows the hidden reality [of anything that exists: none knows it] save God.” And neither can they [who are living] perceive when they shall be raised from the dead
Ar-Rum (The Romans) 30:19
He brings forth the living out of that which is dead, and brings forth the dead out of that which is alive, and gives life to the earth after it had been lifeless: and even thus will you be brought forth.
Luqman 31:28
Your creation (of you all) is like that of a single soul; for God is All-Hearing, All-Seeing.
Fatir (The Originator of Creation) 35:9
AND it is God who sends forth the winds, so that they raise a cloud, whereupon We drive it towards dead land and thereby give life to the earth after it had been lifeless: even thus shall resurrection be!
يس Ya-Siin 36:12
Verily, We shall indeed bring the dead back to life; and We shall record whatever they have sent ahead, and the traces which they have left behind: for of all things do We take account in a record clear.
يس Ya-Siin 36:51-52
And the trumpet will be blown - and lo! out of their graves towards their Sustainer will they all rush forth!
They will say: “Oh, woe unto us! Who has roused us from our sleep [of death]?” [Whereupon they will be told:] “This is what the Most Gracious has promised! And His message-bearers spoke the truth!”
Fussilat (Explained in Detail) 41:39
For among His signs is this: thou seest the earth lying desolate - and lo! when We send down water upon it, it stirs and swells! Verily, He who brings it to life can surely give life to the dead: for, behold, He has the power to will anything.
ق Qaf 50:11
as sustenance apportioned to men; and by [all] this We bring dead land to life: [and] even so will be [man’s] coming-forth from death.
Al-Qiyamah (The Resurrection) 75:3-4
Does man think that We cannot bring his bones together again?
Yea indeed, We are able to make whole his very finger-tips!
Life After Death
Resurrection In The Old Testament

If a man die, shall he live again? all the days of my appointed time will I wait, til my change come. Thou shalt call, and I will answer thee; thou wilt have a desire to the work of thine hands.

Thy dead men shall live, together with my dead body shall they arise. Awake and sing, ye that dwell in dust: for thy dew is as the dew of herbs, and the earth shall cast out the dead.
Daniel 12:2

Ar-Rum (The Romans) 30:19
He brings forth the living out of that which is dead, and brings forth the dead out of that which is alive, and gives life to the earth after it had been lifeless: and even thus will you be brought forth.

Is There Life After Death?
The short answer is Yes!
If you find yourself needing an explanation, then be prepared to arm yourself with all the science, math, philosophy, computerese, communication skills and spirituality you can delve into in order to understand the following proof by way of explanation.
You must first free yourself of the limitation of thinking that God is some guy! Once you have been immersed in all the knowledge you can find on this 3rd or 4th dimensional Earth, you’ll realize that your definite human brain encased in a limited physical body cannot encompass the infinite God. So get comfortable with the idea that God is not limited and can do anything and everything all at once, without permission or explanation. God is Creator, you are created, and you are not God.
If you have difficulty grasping this concept then please take a moment to dwell on the fact that the sunlight reaching your eyes left the sun about 8 minutes ago from the time it first lands on your cornea and then there is a further lag from the time the light reaches your cornea to the time it passes through your optic nerve and then gets processed by your brain that you have finally seen the light. You have now come to understand that no matter how much you try, in the physical world, you are really living in the past. This is the nature of Creation. Further introspection will lead you to know that anything and everything has already happened and nothing surprises God, and there is not much that we as creatures can do about it except live and learn and by doing so, get to know our Creator.
You should also know that God is a living entity and as such is the God of the living and if ever you find yourself dead, you are not much use to God in that condition, so you will find yourself instantaneously resurrected in order to see what exactly you missed on the first pass at life (this may have occurred several times throughout your life already without you being aware).
You will not come back as an amoeba or a frog or your next door neighbor, but you will be or are the same being you believe yourself to be. Please take a moment here to reflect deeply on your life and see if there is any discontinuity in your memory, or if you have had any dreams in which you were flying or if you recently think yourself to have slept through an earthquake or other natural or man-made catastrophe. This is a good place to catch up on reading about multiple dimensions and then I invite you to reflect on what something in a dream state here may mean in hyperspace; or think what a massive meteorite striking the 3rd dimensional Earth might look like from tetra space-- just look how Emily interacts with Bob here.
You will find that these concepts work rather well with the solar geometry website which proves mathematically that our solar system is mathematically regular and perfect, therefore, recurring. According to the late Mr. Alan Bennett, if the Earth reoccurs then the same is true for you and me and everything else around here. We reoccur, but death interrupts us, that does not mean we do not go on, just somewhere else (so many Earths to choose from), whether we believe it or not, perceive it or not, that is just what all the facts are pointing to.
You may also catch up on reading about the current state of knowledge regarding the ‘mind’ and you may be surprised to know that we don’t know much about the human ‘mind’ although we have mapped the brain and the human genome. For the ‘mind’ is truly an enigma, but basically it records our experiences and makes us think they are continuous throughout our lives, but this continuity is an illusion; again, a by-product of our faulty perception. Much like when we watch something on television and we don’t really sense the flicker of the images, they appear to be one cohesive image but we know they are not. They are multiple frames timed in such a way as to fool our time-delayed perception.
This lack of awareness that things are not really continuous or even solid for that matter is due in part to our being lulled into believing things and events transpire according to rules we learned in school or throughout our so called life. It is because we think that we have the answer to everything. This becomes ingrained once we blossom into adulthood and explains why childhood is magic and adulthood is not. If you don’t believe that you have been living much of your adult life blissfully unaware of your surroundings then consider this. Why is it that many ancient civilizations are being dug up from several meters underground, yet the pyramids which predate many of these civilizations, are still exposed. Shouldn’t they have been at least buried half way by now?
You may be able to think of better examples to demonstrate my point, but at any rate this all points to the fact that the majority of us are walking around in a semi-somnambulant state. We don’t really pay attention to the details because we are too busy paying bills, attending games, eating or doing some other mundane thing that we don’t even notice if we are interacting with someone who may have already died and this to them would be their life after death. This level of awareness is generally reached by some of our populace after much meditation, prayer or twisting into pretzel-like objects on a yoga mat, and is what we refer to as enlightenment.
Once you have primed yourself with the minutia of extra dimensions and quantum theory, you can’t help but notice that time itself is not as it appears. Time is neither linear nor circular and is by no means a one-way arrow, but can be viewed from hyperspace to look more like a meandering river with girth, and breadth, and length and volume. You will realized that your mind has not recorded all these points in time, because you either have a faulty memory or you have not yet lived them all. What if you die now? It is an inevitable…this will on some planet Earth disintegrate your brain—and your mind?
Please think. Now you have to call on all your knowledge of holography and holograms. You may also wish to read philosophical treatise on language and metaphor in order for the following to make sense. I will attempt to write about holograms, but this explanation, is to be understood on different levels just like this life is lived in multiple dimensions. But since here we are limited to conveying a thought in words we have to confine the argument to a manner that is accessible to interpretation by our physical senses and hopefully your mind will catch my meaning.
A hologram is made by capturing an image from multiple angles and combining it on some flat media, like a film, or glass plate. When the image is then illuminated by light at two different angles, the image re-emerges as a three-dimensional whole (composite) of the flat impression some distance away from the medium, a hologram. If you take the medium on which the image is captured and cut it up or splinter it into many pieces, and then illuminate any single one of these fragments, you will not just get a partial hologram of the original but the hologram in its entirety. Your mind can be likened to the holographic medium, it behaves in a similar fashion when it is ‘broken’, i.e. dies. The light, of course, is a metaphor for God, and it continually illuminates your mind, making entire life experiences over and over of whatever piece of your mind is currently under examination. This happens whether or not you believe there is a God (but your belief one way or the other may affect the quality of your experience).
I hope I have given you enough to think about and read about for now, and quelled any doubts you may have about your life after death.

Telepathy Truth Or Dare
If you found this page no doubt you have surfed countless conspiracy theory sites on synthetic telepathy and magnetic waves and government cover ups. But the truth about telepathy is that it is really a latent human trait that can be brought about by extenuating circumstances such as a near death experience or severe chemical sensitization that affects the neural network, as related in Maxie Time.
Chemical sensitization is an allergic reaction the body can develop to a number of chemicals. Commercial examples are chemicals found in epoxy and cement resins, formaldehyde, and the like. I write chemicals, but really every substance is comprised of chemicals so if the source of the chemical is organic, it is invariably caused by toxic mold . This allergy may be pre-existing but in most cases it can be induced by prolonged contact over a course of a few days or even years. Once sensitized, even very small amounts of chemicals can bring about an allergic reaction.
The medical community formally acknowledges the physical symptoms-- such as blistering, swelling, itching, and other skin and respiratory conditions. However, acknowledging the anomalous side effects such as telepathy and remote viewing are still very much suppressed bête noire in the medical, legal and political arenas.
