After I posted information about crop circles never crossing fields (their careful placement being a mark of a choice-making source), our science expert, Nancy Talbott — the “T” of BLT Research where you can find science papers that have been in peer-reviewed science journals — told me that it happens on occasion, although, as she said, that “does not mean others are not ‘intentionally’ placed.” Nancy went on to ask, “Did you see the fabulous example of this which is the new one in Italy? In this case, it’s two different crops.”
Most surprisingly, Italy has gotten more than the UK so far this year, and the UK has been going great guns.
The photo was taken by Margherita Campaniolo, who took the picture we use in the international montage in my movie, of an earlier circle in Italy — both of them in Poirino.
To track the formations as they come in, where each gets a page for pictures and commentary: CropCircleConnector.
Check out their page on this Italian one. Stunning information there. Did you notice the different dot pattern in the petals? E = MC2 anyone? Read all about it! Anybody who clicks through to this will get how the circles contain stunningly encoded intelligence.
There is a theme running through all of what I would call “Genuine CCs”. This theme will eventually become clear to those who wish to listen. However as with all theories put forward as regards crop circles, there are those who choose not to listen.
Scientific proof of anolomies in this field is probably not possible, or even desirable. An awful amount of effort is put into this research, and I wish the scientists the best of luck in their endeavours. However, I am not a scientist, and so cannot comment on their results.
Ah John, we’ve never met, but I know you as a founding member of the now defunct Center for Crop Circle Studies. An organization like that would be a big help. I know that one dissolved thanks to contention among the members, but what a shame we don’t have any central body now for collection of data, for dialog and investigation, and to have a public face to meet the questions of the world
Hello John. We’ve never met but I know you were a founding member of the now defunct Centre for Crop Circle Studies. We so could use another such entity for dialog among the researchers and to provide an interface with the world. However, I don’t understand your comment, given the prodigious work done by BLT Research — http://bltresearch.com. I’m not a scientist either, but I respect their findings, in papers published in peer-reviewed science journals, that attest to something beyond human capacities going on.
Moving and effective! You’ve definitely received a way of reaching individuals that I haven’t witnessed quite generally. If most folks wrote about this topic with the eloquence that you just did, I’m confident folks would do far more than just read; they’d act. Wonderful stuff right here. Please keep it up.
Where is our point of greatest leverage in shifting the global conversation regarding our collective future?
For a long time, many writers have asserted the important role which questions play in a person’s thinking. Our research (Collective Intelligence Solutions) has taken that notion to the discovery of a universal principle, which for the first time recognizes the absolutely central role which questions play in the thought process of an individual or group.
The Theory of Question-Driven Thinking asserts that all thinking is directed by questions, either by questions which we deliberately form or by default questions, questions of which we are unaware. The theory states that person’s inner dialogue is not a random stream of thoughts, images and ideas—commonly referred to as the “monkey mind”—but is systematically answering questions from the person’s cache of default questions. The cache of default questions exists so a person’s mind always has something with which to occupy itself. The cultural trance, for example, is held in place by such silent questions as What’s wrong [with me, with her, this movie, those people, etc.]? How can I look good? When will this [meeting, life, game, conversation] be over? How can I be safe? Who will love me? How am I better [or worse] than…? How can I be right [win]? Etc. The nightly news is ostensibly letting people know what happened in their world. However, the “news” is answering and, therefore, reinforcing—as if universally important—such unstated questions as, Who and where is the enemy? Why do I need to be in fear? How can I stop the pain? How bad is it? Etc.
Rather than despair over the seeming lunacy of the Nature Magazine author, I would suggest you ask yourself, what is the question this man is answering? My guess is that he’s answering something like how can I support the agenda of my directors while appearing to be scientific? To overlook the operative questions in any situation is to miss the fundamental factor governing the thought process. The 911 Commission, for example, was not told to answer the question What happened to the WTO, but how did two airplanes bring down the towers? Therefore, that is what the report details. The operative questions make all the difference and typically remain hidden.
Intelligence is the result of the questions a person is asking. Collective intelligence is the result of the collective questions we ask. As long as we are ignorant of our personal and collective capacity for intelligence that matters, we will easily be led astray, unaware of the fact that our thinking process is being manipulated by questions not in our highest interest.
The Theory of Question-Driven Thinking goes on to say that the effect of default questions can be overridden by engaging in sufficiently interesting deliberate questions. Your [my, our] job is to become expert at formulating questions which will engage people’s thought process newly, and to repeatedly insert provocative questions into the conversation.
How can we pool our collective mental capacity to solve our most pressing problems?
What is your evidence that our political leaders know the path to a desirable future?
If humans did not make the crop patterns, what does that say about where we are?
P.S. On closer reading of the Nature article, I actually believe the author makes sufficient reference to anomalies about the patterns to refute his “art movement” thesis. I don’t think he really believes what he wrote.
Warmly,
