Well for starters I am an atheist. God and religion mean absolutely nothing to me. However, I am still struggling with spirituality. This is where my topic comes into play, sorta.
Let me explain a few things before I get into it. I will make the connection don't worry.
First off I am a big fan of Star Wars and the famous "May the Force be with you" phrase. Not a convention going fan but more about the mystery surrounding the "Force". I know what you're saying, not another star wars freak pushing the Force, but I have a connection with reality you will see.
I have recently seen a show on Discovery talking about "Global Consciousness" or what they think may be such. This is basically (a global network of random event generators) some little sensors around the world that sort of detect conscious activity if my understanding is correct. See here for more info http://noosphere.princeton.edu/ and if you want to understand the process.
Quote from http://noosphere.princeton.edu/ :"We have learned that when millions of us share intentions and emotions the GCP/EGG network shows correlations. We can interpret this as evidence for participation in a growing global consciousness. It suggests we have the capability and responsibility for conscious evolution."
Now here goes the correlation between the 2.
The Force is all around us hence so would be a global consciousness.
When something happened in the Star wars universe like many people dying, those who were tuned into the force felt it. In the global consciousness their tests show that when 911 happened the sensors spiked around the world thus telling us something occurs when everyone thinks of the same thing.
The force can help heal or change things and I believe global consciousness can as well.
A Jedi could influence his surroundings and global consciousness can as well. If someone is sick or dying and a truly large number of people are praying for them and therefore thinking about this sick person it may send them the energy to heal them either completely or partially. I don't think we as a race are evolved enough to Heal per say but what if we could help the process along just by thinking about it in great numbers.
A few years ago my daughter had a brain tumor and there were thousands of people (as far as I know) praying for her. She had a few surgeries and treatments and as of today is healthy but I can't help thinking that if no one had thought about her every time they were praying, would the outcome have been the same.
Dark Side vs. the good guys
Obviously the dark side is very bad and don't think I need to explain Darth Vader or the Emperor. Ok so if we as a race were to focus on lets say the negative impacts of global warming or War for that matter and that global consciousness is in fact a reality don't you think it could make things worst. This is also a big part of personal success as in if you focus on the negative you will get more negative. Here is an example. People like to see misery, right? Don't believe me? How many people watch the news every day? The news if filled with crap like traffic, death, war, murder, scams, riots, politics and so on. Why do they put this on the news, because people want it! So more people watching negative crap on TV means the news people will only put more Negative crap on the next day and so on. If you say it has to do with ratings you are partially right but don't forget the power of global consciousness. If everyone is only dishing out negative vibes then they are sort of ordering more negative vibe from the universe. So just like in the Star Wars universe the dark side is easy to succumb to and attractive to all. What do you think would happen if we focused on the Positive stuff? Watching the news only when they showed us the good in the world.
May the global consciousness be with you.
