Consciousness is the Key of Keys A Basic Primer for Group Mind Action The mutual empowerment of which I speak, and which could save this divided world, is an ancient precedent set by Nature. It flows through a grove of trees just as it exists in any human community. This essence of life to which I refer, is the primary source of unity for all time. Particle physics describes it, as do the sages and poets of ancient texts. It is the felt embrace of lovers in their shared passion, even when they are thousands of miles from each other. It is the bond between Druid and nature, between the shaman and their animal-spirit allies. It is the “atmosphere” of any inspired music concert, the heightened joy of group celebration. This mutuality of feeling and intention is Einsteins' Unified Field, who said that, “the only lasting way to change the world is to change its' consciousness”…for the subatomic realm of particle and wave has deep effect upon us all. People who speak of, “the oneness of all things” refer also to that which passes between those who meditate or pray together earnestly. The unity of mood, of excitement, is that which can be readily felt during team sporting events. It is the charged presence of the woods in springtime, the fury of the mob, the gravitational effects exerted by any emotional crowd or social movement. It is the flow of emotional conviction from speaker to crowd, and the group spell-casting power of the coven. It is the school of fish and the flock of birds, in their extraordinary synchronization of motion…. I refer of course, to the consciousness we all possess. No one can honestly deny the intimate psychic effects which constantly pass from person to person. There is not a single human being alive who has not felt the contrast of felt experience between love/admiration, and fear/hatred from another. Everyone understands the difference of psychic effect between these, and likewise knows which is of greater mutual benefit. Everyone is aware of the experiential contrast between argument and accord. Knowing this, is it not our greatest need and privilege to learn about the consciousness which we, and all other human beings are? Is it not our essential task to carefully wield that force of consciousness, upon which all of nature is likewise based? So I ask you, spiritual teachers, shamans, druids, meditators, the progressive minded and those who pray with a purity of heart, is it not time that we intentionally and consciously helped one another using this knowledge?
