Sometimes looking deeper into out past is better than anything else

Off late - to be precise ever since I started reading Dan Brown's latest novel ( I actually bought it in September 09 but started reading in the flight returning from Hongkong only yesterday is a different story) my mind is racing back and forth admiring so many things which India has offered and forgotten - by the very own guardians of the so called culture beyond the dilapidated believes and values. The spectrum of universe is so deep - its proven every decade an invention by human kind is beaten in the coming decade by the same race which claimed that the inventions of human race see no end for its quest of invention. If I am sounding confused or confusing, that's the way it has to be presented and no other manner it can be presented.

Noetic theory or noëtics is a branch of metaphysical philosophy concerned with the study of mind and intuition, and its relationship with the divine intellect. Among its principal purposes is to study the effects of perceptions, beliefs, and intention with respect to human consciousness.

The theory of noetics centers around the idea that the human mind is capable of affecting or even doing work to the physical world. It is suggested that thought and spirit are not in fact imaginary, but Bose or photon based. Meaning essentially that the mind can be quantified by formulae which describe quantum materials such as light. This is a radical conclusion where many people think thoughts are weightless. Just as gravity affects all matter, so do thoughts to an apparent lesser degree. Psychokinesis, more often called telekinesis, is concerned with the direct influence of mind on matter.

Noetics is often viewed as a completely unscientific field, based on nothing more than misguided spirituality and philosophical hand-waving.

Many people believe in and study the effect of thoughts on the physical world, from health effects to throwing dice. Though skepticism surrounds this field of science, ground-breaking research aims to both quantify and make known the power of the human mind. It won a special highlight in the Dan Brown book, The Lost Symbol, where noetics were a central theme.

I urge every Indian to read this book.
