A bit like finding there is
such
a thing as The Force in Star Wars. The Field tells the story of
respected
frontier scientists all over the globe who have produced extraordinary
evidence to show that an energy field -The
Zero Point Field - connects everything in the universe, and we
ourselves are part of this vast dynamic cobweb of energy exchange.
The Field also reveals a
radical
new biological paradigm-that on our most fundamental level, the
human mind
and body are not distinct and separate from their environment, but a
packet
of pulsating energy constantly interacting with this vast energy
sea.
Here in so-called 'dead'
space
may lay the key to many of life's processes, from how cells
communicate
to how organisms actually take shape. The field is responsible for
our mind's highest functions - our memory, intuition, creativity.
It is the force that finally determines whether we are healthy or ill,
the force which must be tapped in order to heal. Original, and
well
documented with distinguished sources, The Field lifts many areas out
of
the realm of mystery and into the realm of hard science
The Field creates a picture
of an interconnected universe and a new scientific theory
which makes
sense of supernatural phenomena. It offers a scientific
explanation
for many of the most profound human mysteries, from alternative
medicine
and spiritual healing to extra sensory perception and the collective
unconscious.
It could even answer some of the big questions: what is human
consciousness
and what happens when we die.
The Field follows the life
and
work of physicists who seem to be on the verge of bringing about the
same
type of revolution that occurred exactly a century ago when quantum
theory
changed the face of physics forever.
The story of their
thrilling discovery
is a thriller in its own right, involving the CIA, secret Russian
testing
sites, NASA space programmes and time travel, as a small band of men
and
women come to grips with the physics of the impossible.
Fast-paced and
readable like a scientific detective story, The Field is the mind-body
book the New Age has been waiting for, the book that will change your
entire
perception of the way the world works.
Award winning author and
indefatigable
investigative journalist Lynne McTaggart spent four years researching
this
area, where science meets the New Age, to create this story of
scientific
explorers, their groundbreaking work and its controversial implications
for mankind. Until now, conservative scientists have done their best to
rule 'god' out of their equations. This book shows why the Zero Point
Field makes all things possible: all things connected in space and
time.
Readers have written that
The Field
is a book that has changed their lives - their view of the world and
their
view of the possible.
New Truths from The
Field
What biology tells us
- The human being is
a
survival machine
largely powered by chemicals and genetic coding.
- The brain is a
discreet
organ and the
home of consciousness, which is also largely driven by chemistry – the
communication of cells and the coding of DNA.
- Man is essentially
isolated from his
world, and his mind is isolated from his body.
- Time and space are
finite, universal
orders.
- Nothing travels
faster
than the speed
of light.
What The Field
has discovered:
- The communication
of
the world does
not occur in the visible realm of Newton, but in the subatomic world of
Werner Heisenberg.
- Cells and DNA
communicate through frequencies.
- The brain perceives
and
makes its own
record of the world in pulsating waves.
- A substructure
underpins the universe
that is essentially a recording medium of everything, providing a means
for everything to communicate with everything else.
- People are
indivisible
from their environment.
- Living
consciousness is
not an isolated
entity. It increases order in the rest of the world.
- The consciousness
of
human beings has
incredible powers, to heal ourselves, to heal the world – in a sense,
to
make it as we wish it to be.

FAQs
1. What exactly is 'The
Field'?
The Field is the Zero Point
Field,
a subatomic field of unimaginably large quantum energy in so-called
empty
space. If you add up all the movement of all the particles of all
varieties
in the universe, you come up with a vast inexhaustible energy source
all
sitting there unobtrusively in the background of the empty space around
us, like one all-pervasive, supercharged backdrop. To give you some
idea
of the magnitude of that power, the energy in a single cubic yard of
'empty'
space is enough to boil all the oceans of the world.
The Field connects
everything in
the universe to everything else, like some vast invisible web. The
papers
published by these scientists written about in The Field show that the
solid stable stuff we call matter is an illusion and is simply
subatomic
particles constantly moving and being gripped on by the background sea
of energy. Everything in our world, no matter how heavy or large, boils
down to a collection of electric charges interacting with the Zero
Point
Field.
It's a bit like the Force
in Star
Wars. As quantum waves also encode information, it also as
though,
on the tiniest level of reality, a memory of the universe for all time
is contained in empty space that each of us is always in touch
with.
2. Why is the
discovery of the
Zero Point Field so significant?
Up until now, scientists
have subtracted
out this extra quantum energy because they felt it was not important.
But
a number of scientists, from top-ranking institutions such as Princeton
and Stanford University in the US and many prestigious institutions in
Europe, have realized that the Zero Point Field has enormous
implications.
Astrophysicists have called the ZPF a 'cosmic free lunch'. If
successful
in harnessing the limitless energy of so-called 'empty space', these
scientists
may be able to create anti-gravity WARP drives and create automobiles
that
run without fossil fuel. It might also open up the possibility that man
may be able to travel beyond his own solar system.
Perhaps more important, the
existence
of the Zero Point Field implies that all matter in the universe is
interconnected
by quantum waves, which are spread out through time and space, and
can carry on to infinity, tying one part of the universe to every other
part. The idea of The Field might just offer a scientific explanation
for
the spiritual beliefs of many religions that there is such a thing as a
life force.
3. Are human beings
made of this
same basic material?
Human beings, on their most
fundamental
level, are packets of quantum energy constantly exchanging
information
with this heaving energy sea. The frontier scientists I interviewed
have amassed evidence showing that living things emit a weak radiation,
and that this may be one of the most crucial aspects of biological
processes.
A German physicist called Fritz-Albert Popp has discovered that humans
emit highly coherent photons - the tiniest particles of light. One of
the
most essential sources of these are DNA, which may mean that DNA
uses
the wave frequencies of this 'light' to drive all the processes of the
body. Other tests show that animals of the same species 'suck' up
the
light emitted from each other. This activity could explain the silent
communication
that occurs between animals, and why flocks of birds or schools of
fish,
for instance, are able to achieve incredible, instantaneous feats of
synchronized
movement.
4. Arthur C. Clarke,
Bernie Siegel
and Larry Dossey have all hailed The Field as providing a radical new
view
of the world. What sorts of controversies have been uncovered?
One discovery is that every
molecule
emits its own unique frequency, which is used for communication. French
scientists have shown that you can record the frequency of a molecule,
play it to another molecule and the signal itself can take the place of
chemicals in initiating biological processes. The prevailing idea -
that
chemical reactions occur because chemicals collide with each other -
has
always been too dependent upon chance and requires a good deal of time.
It cannot account for the speed of biological processes-like anger,
joy,
sadness or fear. Perhaps most controversial of all, the scientists
working
on the frontier have also discovered that the basic of all the brain's
functions have to do with the interaction between the brain and the
Zero Point field. New evidence shows the brain's conversations with
the body might also occur on the quantum level, with waves and
frequencies,
rather with chemical or electrical impulses alone. In fact, studies in
America on humans and animals show that the cerebral cortex responds to
certain limited bands of frequencies.
As incredible as it seems,
it appears
that when we see things, we are reading information from the Zero
Point
Field on a quantum level and our brain 'reads out' this information
to create the images we see in front of us. Some scientists have gone
as
far as to say that our memories don't sit inside our heads at all. Our
brains are simply the retrieval and read-out mechanism of the ultimate
storage medium - The Field.
5. You are better
known for your
health newsletters and your health campaigning. How did you get
involved
with a book like this?
This book got started eight
years
ago when in the course of my work I kept bumping up against solid
scientific
studies showing good evidence for homeopathy, acupuncture and spiritual
healing. But if something like homeopathy or healing worked, I kept
thinking,
this contradicted everything we believe about our reality. Something
fundamental
seemed to be missing in the orthodox view of physics and biology.
I began a personal quest to
find
out if any frontier work in science could offer an explanation. I
travelled
to many areas around the globe, meeting with physicists and other top
frontier
scientists in the US, Russia, Germany, France, England, South American
and Central America.
The Field has largely
resulted
from interviews with some 50 frontier scientists and a reading and
deciphering
of hundreds of scientific books and papers. During meetings with these
remarkable men and women I made incredible discoveries. What they were
working on seemed to overthrow the current laws of biology, chemistry
and
physics. Their work not only offered an explanation of why homeopathy
and
spiritual healing might work. Their theories and experiments added up
to
a new science, a radically new view of the world.
8. Aren't there other
implications
in the notion of an energy field that connects everything to everything
else?
The Zero Point Field may
provide
a scientific explanation for many of the most profound human mysteries,
including many phenomena that we have not been able to provide an
adequate
explanation for. Ordinarily, the capacity of our brains to
receive
information from this energy field is strictly limited - like a radio
with
only a certain limited bandwidth. During ESP and remote viewing
or
clairvoyance - the ability to 'see' things beyond ordinary distances -
it appears that this bandwidth expands, giving us more access to
information
in the Field than we would have ordinarily.
A series of studies in
Texas have
shown that one person's brain waves begin to synchronize with another
person's
during ESP, but the person with the most 'ordered' brain patterns
will influence the other and nudge it to a greater degree of order.
This
provides an good explanation for the success of remote spiritual
healing.
Other exhaustive studies at
Princeton
have shown that the human mind can also influence REG machines, built
to
perform a random electronic toss of the coin, so that we can 'will' the
machine to produce more heads, say, than tails. The studies also showed
that this effect got larger, if two people were trying to influence the
machines together, but the biggest effect of all was with a bonded
couple.
10. Beside these well
respected
scientists, are other credible organizations investigating the Zero
Point
Field?
For many years, the CIA
funded
a Stanford Research Institute program testing out remote viewing for
psychic
spying. One of the remote viewers in the Stanford Research Institute
was
so specific in viewing what appeared to be a Soviet nuclear testing
site
that it led the Reagan Adminstration to implement the Star Wars
program.
Even today, the FBI has
employed
several credible organizations such as TransDimensional Systems to help
with predicting future terrorist attacks after the events of September
11.
NASA and British Aerospace
have
also heavily funded work into Zero Point Field energy propulsion.
Arthur
C. Clarke has championed this work, and said that any aerospace company
should get their best and brightest to study the Zero Point Field. A
large
consortium of scientists are now studying the implications of these
Zero-Point-Field
effects on the body. And several companies involved with artificial
intelligence
are created computer models based on these theories of how the brain
works.
