Just as a tuning fork has natural frequencies for sound, the planet Earth
has natural frequencies, called Schumann resonances, for electromagnetic
radiation.
The Human Brain also has natural frequencies for electromagnetic
radiation.
It turns out that the Earth's Schumann resonances are
"in tune" with the Human Brains's Alpha States and
Theta States.
elves, sprites, and jets, as illustrated
and described in July 1997 Discover magazine,
and so on.
If you look at the interior of the Earth, you see that there is a differential
physical rotation of the solid inner core with respect to the surface of the
Earth. However, it takes about 400 years for the inner core
to make a complete revolution inside the Earth, so that its frequency is only
one cycle per 400 years.
It is more interesting to look at the frequency of currents at the boundary
between the solid inner core and the liquid outer core. Since the inner
core has radius of about 1,200 kilometers, its circumference is about 7,500
kilometers.
How long would it take an electrical current, travelling at the speed of light
(300,000 km/sec),
to go once around the circumference of the inner core (7,500 km)?
That is about 7,500 km / 300,000 km/sec, or 1/40
sec.
In other words, the natural frequency of the Earth at the boundary of the inner
core is about 40 cycles/sec,
which is at the upper end of the range of frequencies measured for the Schumann
resonances: 7.8, 14, 20, 26, 33, 39 and 45 Hertz.
Therefore, the Schumann resonance frequencies correspond to the range of natural
frequencies of the Earth
from its surface to the boundary of its solid inner core.
Research on Schumann resonances is done by Dave
Sentman and Matt Heavner in
Alaska.
The map (taken from the cover of Nature, illustrating the article of Lau, Mazaud,
Weeks, Fuller, and Herrero-Bervera, Nature vol. 351 (6 June 1991) page 447)
shows movement of virtual geomagnetic pole (VGP) from its present position near
the Earth's axial north pole during excursions and reversals that occurred about
120,000 years ago, about 1.8 million years ago, about 6.5 million years ago, and
about 11 million years ago.
The VGP primarily moves between the Mid-Atlantic Ridge and the Pacific West
Coast of the Americas,
but secondarily it moves along the Asian Pacific Rim, and sometimes it seems to
be located at the antipodal area of the center of the Pacific Ocean, in the
region of Giza.
Jim Branson (e-mail: knowhow@cyberhighway.net)
has noted that Schumann Resonance data from quake.geo.berkeley.edu
show a daily periodicity for the peaks of BT1 (North-South component) and BT2
(East-West component).
The BT1 peaks (East-West Schumann component) seem to be when the subsolar
longitude (local noon)
is about 8 hours west of Greenwich, which is along the North American West
Coast, where the tectonic motion is North-South shearing.
The BT2 peaks (North-South Schumann component) seem to be when the subsolar
longitude (local noon)
is about 2 hours west of Greenwich, which is along the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, where
the tectonic motion is East-West spreading.
Therefore, the BT1 and BT2 peak longitudes seem to mark the boundaries of the
primary zone of VGP movement during geomagnetic excursions and reversals.
According to a web page related to an October 2002 Physics News Update: "... EEGs can now record brainwaves without the need for electrodes to be inserted into the brain or even for them to be placed on the scalp. The figure shows a brainwave trace for periods when the eyes are open and when they are closed.
The red regions respond to the alpha wave (eyes closed) at a frequency of around 9 Hz. (Courtesy University of Sussex) ...".
The Beta and Alpha waves (8 to 30 Hz) seem to correspond to the Schumann
resonances: 7.8, 14, 20, 26, 33, 39 and 45 Hertz.
The 30 Hz high end of the Beta waves is roughly coincident with the frequency of
cats' purrs:
According to an 18 March 2001 article in the London Telegraph by David Harrison: "... the purring of cats is a "natural healing mechanism" ... between 27 and 44 hertz ... was the dominant frequency for a house cat, and 20-50Hz for the puma, ocelot, serval, cheetah and caracal. This reinforces studies confirming that exposure to frequencies of 20-50Hz strengthens human bones and helps them to grow. ... Almost all cats purr, including lions and cheetahs, though not tigers. ...". However, according to a Bengal Tiger web page: "... [Bengal] tigers purr. Domestic cats purr when breathing in and out -- tigers purr only when [breathing] out. ... the roar of a Bengal tiger can be heard 2 miles away ... the Siberian tiger, a cousin of the Bengal tiger, is the world's largest cat ...".
What about the Theta and Delta Waves (1 to 7 Hz)?
The 1 Hz frequency of the Delta waves is 7.5 times lower than the 7.5 Hz natural
frequency at the surface of the Earth. Since the radius of the Earth is about
6,400 km, the radius for a 1 Hz natural frequency is
about 7.5 x 6,400 = 48,000 km.
Here are some natural frequencies that seem to correspond to the Delta and Theta
waves of the Human Brain.
Plasma Sheet (opposite Sun), inner
radius
= 60,000 km 0.8 Hz
Magnetopause (toward Sun),
radius
= 60,000 km 0.8 Hz
Geosynchronous orbit,
radius
= 35,000 km 1.4 Hz
Outer Van Allen electron belt, outer
radius
= 25,000 km 2 Hz
Inner Van Allen proton belt, outer
radius
= 12,000 km 4 Hz
Inner Van Allen proton belt, inner
radius
= 8,400 km 5.7 Hz
As to the following frequencies:
Magnetopause (opposite Sun),
radius = 380,000 km 0.125
Hz
Plasma Sheet (opposite Sun), outer radius = 380,000 km
0.125 Hz
Moon orbit,
radius
= 384,000 km 0.125 Hz
it is interesting that 0.125 Hz is about 8 seconds per cycle, which is roughly
the same period as the 5 second delay that has been observed between the onset
of a 1 to 2 millitesla magnetic field (about 100 times stronger than Earth's
magnetic field) and the first bursts of brain activity responding to the
magnetic field.

Low-frequency electromagnetic waves of humans may be associated with Qi.
If so, Qi
may be detectable physically.
The Qi Field is one of the promising New Technologies.
The microtubule
structure of brains and other cells may be the key to phenomena such as
consciousness.
Human brain wave activity can be compared to that of Dolphins.
Some experiments
show connections between the brain states and resonant electromagnetic waves,
raising the possibility that the Human Brain has evolved
to be "in tune" with Planet Earth.
Dolphin and Human Brains may contain BioMagnetite that could give them an electromagnetic sense that could provide a link between Brains and many types of electromagnetic phenomena, including but not limited to Schumann Resonance Phenomena.
Steve Mizrach (Seeker1) has web
pages that describe Mind Machines,
or devices that affect state of mind
by stimuli such as light, sound, electricity, and chemicals.
Dave Siever (Comptronic Devices) has
web pages that describe some of the history
of mind stimulation by light and sound.
An example of mind stimulation by light is part of the initiation
ceremony of Zoroastrianism.
Some of these matters were dealt with in the Tucson
Conferences in 1994 and 1996
on the phenomena of consciousness. A third Tucson Conference is planned for 1998.

Consciousness phenomena include Parapsychological
