Brain rooting and Schumann resonance
What is resonance?
All things that vibrate in this world have their own “natural” frequency that they are most comfortable with. When a thing is subjected to an external force that makes it vibrate at a frequency with which it vibrates the most, the thing responds with joy, vibrating at the maximum amplitude (energy). This phenomenon manifests itself throughout the universe. This natural frequency of that thing or body is known as its “resonant” or “resonant” frequency, and the phenomenon is known as “Resonance.”
Examples abound. The accomplished guitarist keeps adjusting the different cables on his instrument and knows exactly where to strum a particular cable to make it vibrate at its natural frequency. The Minas Basin, an inlet on the Bay of Fundy, and the Leaf Basin on Unguva Bay (both in Canada) are the world’s highest tide settings. These tides are the result of the resonance of the tides caused by the moon playing with the waters every twelve hours approximately. The dance of the Galilean moons – Ganymede, Europa and Io – around Jupiter is another phenomenon of divine resonance that has been going on for eons. When you turn the radio dial to tune in to a favorite station, you are reaching the perfect resonance between your circuit and the station’s frequencies.
Extending the point even further, we humans have different frequencies that we resonate at, at different times in our lives. Try talking to a recently laid off employee about poverty conditions in certain parts of the world. They will not resonate. But send thoughts about a possible opening at a newly opened business in the neighborhood, and go! See them resonate! There are almost infinite topics on which there are millions of websites currently operating on the Internet. But you clicked on this article to read about brain entrainment and Schumann MRI. Why? Because this is a subject that your mind resonates with. Are you in tune with me? Well, it gets even more exciting from now on.
The resonance of the earth
The Earth, our beloved Earth, is, as we all know, a huge ball with an equatorial radius of approximately 6,378 kilometers and an equatorial circumference of about 40,075 kilometers. Despite its enormous mass, as I read this last sentence, the planet hurtled forward, and continues to do so, at 30 kilometers per second.
Surrounding this massive ball is the atmosphere, which is a mixture of gases that is dense near the surface but thins as we move into space. From about 80-85 kilometers onwards and away from the earth’s surface, the atmosphere is populated by a considerable population of free-moving electrons and positive ions. The resulting plasma of differently charged particles at this height forms a belt around the earth and is known as the ionosphere. It is the activity of the sun, its sunspot cycles, solar flares, solar winds, and all fireworks that determine how ionized the ionosphere is going to be at any given time. The internal magnetic field of the earth and its magnetosphere in the confines of the ionosphere together ensure that these free souls remain free and do not unite. (Well, life isn’t very social up there.)
The Earth’s surface, ionosphere, and atmosphere together form a gigantic electrical circuit. This almost circular belt around the Earth’s surface acts as a “wave guide” that handles the continuous flow of electromagnetic waves. When the weather is “good”, this belt acts like a cavity, with the ionospheric end holding a potential 200,000 to 500,000 volts higher than the end of the Earth’s surface. The current during that time is about 0.002 nanoamps per square meter. Confined between the two extremes, electromagnetic waves ripple longitudinally from one end to the other, and when reflected backwards, they interfere with advancing incident waves. The net result? Terrestrial standing waves. These waves ripple gently (hopefully) forever, at frequencies Earth likes and rejoices in.
It was in 1899 that the scientist Nikola Tesla discovered them, and it was in 1952 that Dr. Winfried Otto Schumann, professor of Electrical Engineering at the Technical University of Munich, detected the resonance. Dr. Schumann measured the extremely low frequency (ELF) band of these vibratory electromagnetic waves.
The lowest frequency at which resonance occurs is 7.83 Hz. The highest resonances occur at 14 Hz, then 20, then 26, 33, 39, and finally 45 Hz.
Earth’s electrical circuit is extremely sensitive to variations in daytime, seasonal, and solar fireworks. Scientists have gone ahead and calculated the Schumann resonance at exotic locations like Venus, Mars, and Titan.
Natural frequencies of the brain
The brain is also an electromagnetic device, with chemistry and physics (in addition to many other sciences) included in good measure. EEG measurements have found that the brain loves to create electromagnetic waves in the next four frequency bands, and is quite happy when it is in one of the following bands. By a remarkable coincidence (coincidence?), These frequency bands are the same ones in which the global electrical circuit of the Earth also resonates.
Delta: this is the band that is between> 0 and 3 Hz. These waves have the highest amplitude, and when they are dominant, the brain has the lowest consciousness in the “physical” world (sensory systems take a break and relax).
Theta: This is the band between> 3 and 7.5 Hz. These waves are found to be dominant when the mind is internally concentrating, meditating, or spiritually aware.
Alpha: This is the band between 7.5 and 13 Hz. This is the main rhythm seen in normal adults: people are active, efficient, and involved in completing the task in front of them.
Beta: This frequency range is between 13 and 30 Hz. As the mind shifts from lower to higher beta frequencies, one tends to be more alert, even agitated.
Gamma: In the landscape of the brain, this is the highest vibration, between 30 and 40 Hz. When an individual is in a situation that requires integrated memory processing, for example, these waves begin to form.
Resonating with nature
Ah, from atmospheric physics and science to metaphysics and epistemology! This is where me The mind resonates more!
Science ends; and phenomenology begins.
When we enter the state of meditation, either through internal stimuli (self-efforts, aimed at staying still and becoming aware of one’s own consciousness), or through external stimuli (using brain-entrainment DC, etc.); We experience the tranquility that we normally associate with other routine experiences, such as when we wake up in the morning after a deep sleep. In the meditative state, our brain descends from lower beta to alpha and from alpha to theta.
After a while, when we are able to maintain ourselves at a particular level of ELF vibration, the same vibrations begin to transduce the entire nervous system, from the brain, the spinal cord down to the last neuron that touches the pores of the skin. . Over time, cells throughout the body resonate with the same frequency. Consciousness permeates the whole body.
It is not possible to know when it happens, but as we go down from alpha to theta, the cellular vibrations of the body align with the standing wave of the environment. It is very similar to the two leaves of a swing bridge that are aligned with each other. That is precisely the moment when consciousness (and aura) have the opportunity to expand, go beyond the limitations of the body and spread out to the vast expanse of the universe beyond. And this is an ineffable experience.
When two vibrating systems are in resonance with each other, there is an increase in the amplitude of the waves. In our case, the brain and the resonance of the global electrical circuit cause an increase in the amplitude of the waves that dance in our brain. The increase in amplitude causes an increase in the energy of our consciousness. Logically, at some point damping forces are installed that prevent the amplitude from exceeding a certain level. Which also benefits us, since this cushioning protects us from an experience for which we may not be prepared. The trick, therefore, is to keep reaching and playing this amplitude, and gradually increasing its levels (pushing the damping force back).
I used to think that the hermits of yesteryear went to the mountains and hills to be more in tune with this circuit, until a research work revealed that the “altitude profile” remains unchanged from the ground up to a height of 70 km (Everest is only about 8.8 km), and only beyond that point is there any unevenness. (Unless the hermits knew something that scientists don’t?)
Although popular literature suggests that the Schumann Resonance value is increasing (and has gone from 7.83Hz in the 1970s to 11.00Hz now), research conducted at the Northern California Earthquake Data Center shows that the SR has been stable in the 7.8Hz range. But what if it does increase in the future?
But wait, there is more. There is a hypothesis that our own thought processes are not bearable! That there is someone out there who is remotely controlling what thoughts should cross our mind. Now when you connect this knowledge with the Schumann resonance frequencies, you know that we don’t know anything about the universe and what’s more, we don’t know anything about ourselves. Not a very enthusiastic thought, eh?
Final word
Meditation is known to rejuvenate the mind and body. For materialistic minded people, this translates to increased performance and efficiency in daily work. For those focused on the spiritual, meditation is the best route to connect with the higher realms of consciousness. Knowledge of the Schumann resonance makes one aware of the different mechanisms possibly available in nature to achieve this connection.
