The Morphogenetic Field

"Perhaps humans are the same, with our minds and thoughts existing separate from our bodies. Our "core" is in our head, of course. We all have individual brains, think individual thoughts, and act according to individual wills. [...] Each one of us is an individual, and we have no direct connection to anyone else. But... is that really true? [...] If we look at things from another, higher dimension, however... We may all be connected after all. Like the branches of a tree... Or a rhizome..."

-Akane Kurashiki

The Morphogenetic Field (cont.)

  • AKA Theory of the Telepathic Mechanism
  • A theory first developed by Rupert Sheldrake
  • States that the "shapes of living organisms and their behavioral patterns are transmitted through a field not visible to the eye"
  • In essence, an invisible field permeating all of space and time that acts as a medium by which organisms can communicate non-physically
  • Exists across the fourth dimension as described by Minkowski spacetime
  • Houses all consciousness; it is where all thought by all living organisms takes place
  • Body as an “output” device for this thought, much like wireless computers with a monitor or remotely-controlled robots with a core outside of their body

Resonant events

  • Specific packets of information that are written to the field
  • May be literal information, visual information, auditory information, etc.
  • Represent one cohesive sound, feeling, fact, etc.
  • Multiple resonant events together make up an experience
  • May be written or read from
  • Cannot be destroyed or overwritten from the field, but do become harder to access as you stray further from the original time and timeline in which the event was written
  • May also refer to one person’s continuous feed of information into the field

6 of 39

Collective human consciousness

  • The collection of all human resonant events from the past, present, and future
  • Carry all human thought, culture, tradition, etc.
  • Encoded with “patterns”, “templates”, “archetypes” that influence culture; e.g. how language is structured, classic story structure, unexplainable psychological phenomena, human instinct
  • Affects all humans no matter what
  • The more a specific resonant event is encoded into the field by humans, the stronger its influence
    • E.g. If 10,000 people do a handstand, every given person has a slightly higher chance of doing a handstand shortly after
    • If 10,000 people are told the answer to a riddle, the chance of people who have not heard the answer figuring it out increases

Nonhuman applications

  • Animals are able to access their own morphogenetic fields and use it to communicate within their own respective species
  • Plants are known to interact with the fields as well
  • There is evidence of similar phenomena occurring on a molecular level, e.g. with the spontaneous crystallization of glycerin

Experimental research examples

  • Dog experiment
    • A British TV show showed two abstract images that could be recognized as a dog and a woman respectively once you look at them the right way, and asked 1,000 individuals from other countries whether they saw the answer
    • The answers were shown on British TV to an audience of ~200,000
    • Different individuals from the same countries were tested again, and the number of people who had never seen the answers yet recognized the figures in the drawings nearly doubled
  • Rat experiment
    • Rats were placed in a C shaped tank filled with enough water that they could drown; one end was dark, and the other was lit, but electrified
    • Rats eventually found the correct exit in the dark; successive generations took less and less time, until finally, one rat found the answer instantly
    • The same test took place with different rats in another facility; they started with faster times and easily found the exit as compared to before

Experimental research examples (cont.)

  • Japanese rhymes
    • Children with no knowledge of Japanese were posed to memorize three Japanese poems; one a random collection of Japanese words, one a newly-composed but sensible verse, and one a poem well-known to Japanese children
    • The poem well-known to Japanese children was most easily memorized by children who knew no Japanese, followed by the legible but new verse, followed by the gibberish
  • The Nonary Project
    • Resonant esper pairs were placed in two similar locations, one on land and one in a sinking ship, and told to solve incomplete puzzles by transmitting information from the land to the ship
    • Children were able to easily access the morphogenetic field when facing life-threatening danger

Resonant Espers

11 of 39

Espers vs. Non-Espers

  • All conscious beings are able to read and write to the morphogenetic field; however, non-espers do this exclusively unconsciously and unwillingly
  • Espers are individuals able to deliberately read and/or write resonant events onto the morphogenetic field
  • Non-espers cannot become espers through training; the ability is intrinsic from birth

12 of 39

Unpaired espers

  • Unpaired resonance
    • Refers to resonance with the morphogenetic field at large rather than with any one individual
    • One person consciously interfacing with the collective human consciousness
  • Unpaired transmitters
    • Act as a “beacon” of information, able to consciously write their experiences onto the field
    • If exclusively transmitting, may not ever recognize they are an esper
  • Unpaired receivers
    • Able to read resonant events from the field and gather information from all of human consciousness

13 of 39

Unpaired espers (cont.)

  • Universal transmitter/receiver
    • Theoretical
    • Concept of an individual with near absolute power over reading/writing to the morphogenetic field
    • A universal transmitter would be able to highly influence or control others with their resonant event
      • Ex. They could do a handstand, and it would have the same influence on the field as if tens of thousands of people did handstands
      • OR they may be able to direct their resonant event onto one person, forcing them to do a handstand
    • A universal receiver would be highly susceptible to suggestions from the morphogenetic field
      • Could theoretically be “puppeted” by a specific universal transmitter
      • May be able to read the thoughts of others

Paired espers

  • Occurrence
    • Typically found within sibling pairs, especially twins
    • Possible, albeit at a reduced rate, between adoptive siblings
    • Possible between non-siblings, e.g. cousins, and rarely those who are not related genetically
    • Typically only develops when strong bonds are present
    • Typically, one sibling is born with the potential for resonance and a second sibling later completes the pair; if no more children are born, the first has the potential to form non-familial paired resonance

15 of 39

Paired espers (cont.)

  • Paired resonance
    • Esper pairs directly unconsciously interface with each other as they experience the outside world
    • Typically share objective information, either in the form of a neural response to sensory information or in the form of thought-sharing
    • Pure qualia typically not shared, but when they are, they are typically brief; smell/taste/touch is more common than hearing, sight is very rare
    • Always occurs in a transmitter/receiver pair, like poles of a magnet. The inclinations may be slight, but are always present

16 of 39

Paired espers (cont.)

  • Transmitters
    • The individual in an esper pair who is more adept at sending resonant events to their partner
  • Receivers
    • The individual in an esper pair who is more adept at receiving resonant events from their partner

17 of 39

Factors that affect resonance

  • Danger
    • Life-threatening danger (especially fearing for one’s life) will cause a consciousness to interface with the field in order to find a solution
  • Epiphany
    • Occurs when someone is thinking over a problem and suddenly comes up with an answer, like when doing a puzzle; this information is more readily written onto the field
  • Resemblance
    • It is easier to resonate when two individuals are having similar experiences; e.g. in identical versions of the same building or room
  • Distance
    • Tends to follow an inverse-square proportion of strength; doubling your distance between you and your resonant partner will quarter the strength of your resonance, unless you undergo training

Correlated traits

  • Traits/experiences that are correlated with morphogenetic resonance; not necessarily every esper
    • Heightened empathy
    • Neurodivergence
      • Dissociation
      • Psychosis (hallucinations/delusions)
      • Schizophrenia spectrum disorders
      • PTSD
      • Maladaptive Daydream Disorder
      • ADHD
      • Autism
    • Lucid dreaming
    • Sensory sensitivity
    • Creative intelligence/”Prodigysim”

19 of 39

Correlated traits (cont.)

    • Premonitions of the future/past/alternate histories
      • Lateral; seeing alternate timelines and what has occurred in them
      • Linear; seeing into the past (including past histories) or near future

20 of 39

Detection

  • The most reliable and common way to test for morphic resonance is through the Ganzfeld experiment
    • Ganzfeld Experiment
      • A receiver is placed in a room with halved ping-pong balls covering their eyes, a red light shining over them, and white noise playing through headphones
      • A sender is told to send specific information to the receiver mentally, and the receiver is told to narrate their thoughts out loud during the experiment
      • The pair may be morphogenetically resonant if they are able to transmit the information across rooms

21 of 39

Training

  • Espers may be able to refine their skills by undergoing training to strengthen their resonance
  • This training may increase the distance over which they can resonate, the clarity of the transmitted information, or the reliability of the transmitted information
  • To increase distance capabilities, subjects are told to transmit to each other first in the same room, then in separate rooms, then separate buildings, and so on, until they can resonate from miles or states away
  • Training typically has a “ceiling” after which espers cannot improve any more due to their natural limitations

Time-Travelling Espers

23 of 39

Minkowski spacetime

  • Initially developed by mathematician Hermann Minkowski for Maxwell's equations of electromagnetism; consequence of special relativity
  • Describes spacetime in four dimensions; three spatial dimensions and one temporal dimension
  • There may be multiple temporal dimensions to accommodate for the existence of alternate timelines and subsequent time loops-- postulated to be 3
  • Lateral vs. Linear time
    • Lateral time refers to parallel timelines as described by the�many-worlds interpretation of quantum mechanics; �points in time the same amount of time from a given �reference point in the past, but in which different events�are occurring due to a timeline branch
    • Linear time refers to the typically-known past and future

24 of 39

Shifters

  • SHIFT = Spacetime Human Internal Fluctuating Transfer
  • Individuals with the ability to travel laterally across alternate timelines
  • “Swap” their consciousness with that of their alternate selves by throwing their consciousness across the morphogenetic field; they will end up in another timeline, but that other timeline’s self will travel to their body
  • Typically only able to travel to “nearby” timelines-- ones that bear great resemblance to their own except for recent decisions
    • E.g. You may be able to shift to a timeline �where you didn’t tip a cup of milk twenty �minutes ago, but you can’t shift to a timeline �where you never met your wife of 20 years
  • Can only shift to timelines where their �alternate self is alive

25 of 39

Jumpers

  • Individuals with the ability to travel back and forth across linear time
  • Again, “swap” their consciousnesses, but in a closed loop, sending their consciousness through the morphogenetic field
    • E.g. If you go to the future, your future self will come back to your body; however, you will eventually reach the age of that future self, and end up jumping back to your own body again as well
  • Can only jump within their own lifetime
  • Large shifts and jumps cannot occur simultaneously;� must do one or the other first
  • It is possible to jump back in time before a timeline �branches and travel down a different branch instead

26 of 39

Amnesia

  • Both jumpers and shifters tend to forget all of their memories from timelines they have experienced
  • May end up with a “bad feeling” about a certain decision-- explainable by “intuition”-- rather than objectively knowing the future it heads towards
  • May learn to retain memories through training

27 of 39

Factors that affect shifting/jumping

  • Danger
    • Life-threatening danger (especially fearing for one’s life) may cause a consciousness to time travel to undo deadly consequences of a decision
  • Choice
    • Having a multitude of very clear branching timelines caused by concrete choices makes it easier to shift
  • Processing speed
    • Lowering the processing speed of an individual allows the brain to build up potential energy like a “slingshot”; typically� applies to jumping
    • May be induced through the infection of �Radical-6

28 of 39

Correlated traits

  • “Luck”
    • Individuals may appear “lucky” for predicting results they have seen in alternate or future universes
  • Instinct/intuition
  • Old age
    • Shifters/jumpers tend to live to an older age; may be due to a quantum immortality-type effect, where they are able to find and travel to a timeline where they live longer, or are able to see dangers to their health/wellbeing and prevent them

Characteristics of Resonance

30 of 39

Occurrence

  • Comorbidity
    • You may have multiple field abilities, including being a paired and/or unpaired esper and/or a jumper and/or a shifter
    • You also may have far different strengths for each of your abilities, though generally you tend to have similar strengths
    • Exception: You cannot have opposing specialties in multiple esper pairs; e.g. you can’t be a transmitter to one resonant partner but a receiver to another
    • It is possible to be both a paired and unpaired esper, and to have opposing specialties in both fields, but most of the time the specialties align
    • Paired espers are more likely to be unpaired espers as well than the general population
    • Espers are slightly more likely to be jumpers/shifters than the general population, and vice versa, but not by much
    • Shifters have only a slightly higher chance of being a jumper than the general population
    • Jumpers have a much higher chance of being shifters than the general population

31 of 39

Occurrence (cont.)

  • Rarity
    • Espers are relatively common; unpaired and paired espers occur at the same rate
    • Make up about ~0.5-1% of the population, but it is rare for espers to realize they’re espers
    • Shifters are exceedingly uncommon; there are theorized to be 10,000-50,000 shifters worldwide (1 to 5 in 800,000 individuals)
    • Jumpers are extremely rare; theorized to be several hundred worldwide (1 in every 8 to 80 million individuals)
  • Nature vs. Nurture
    • If esper abilities are present, they must be present from birth
    • However, it’s possible for abilities to fade permanently or semi-permanently if unused
    • Abilities may end up stronger later in life if they are used frequently early in life

32 of 39

Occurrence (cont.)

  • Epigenetics
    • Offspring are more likely to have stronger abilities if conceived during times of stress
    • Offspring are more likely to be espers in the first place or stronger espers if one or both parents are stronger espers
  • Familiarity
    • It is unclear whether resonance is more likely to develop between individuals who are familiar with each other, or if resonance allows for a stronger familiarity between the espers in the pair
  • Age
    • Younger espers are more likely to be stronger and may lose their powers as they reach adolescence unless they make conscious effort to use them

33 of 39

Occurrence (cont.)

  • Humanity
    • More espers are likely to be born during or in impending times of crisis, e.g. war or apocalypse
  • Hidden variables
    • Even when all likely criteria are fulfilled strongly, there is no guarantee that resonance will develop
    • Some theorize that there’s an underlying mechanism similar to A/B/AB/O blood types that determines resonant compatibility between individuals
    • In essence, a large part of whether two individuals are resonant is random chance

34 of 39

Boosting

  • Espers may be strengthened by being in the presence of other espers
  • Absorption
    • The phenomenon in which stronger espers “soak up” the powers of weaker espers
    • This renders the weaker espers unable to use their abilities
    • Only resonant abilities may be absorbed, but they may be absorbed by and boost any kind of resonant ability
  • Resonance
    • The phenomenon in which espers existing in a group allows for all of them to receive a boost in power if they cooperate
    • Usually applies to shifters and jumpers, but may apply to resonant espers if trained or cooperating to overcome absorption
  • Non-esper resonance
    • Non-espers may be able to access the morphogenetic field only if in the presence of multiple resonating espers

35 of 39

Variation

  • Field abilities have common patterns, but cannot be strictly defined in all cases
  • Natural variation in how all espers experience their powers
  • May differ in:
    • Sensory experience
    • Specialties (beyond transmitting/receiving)
    • Susceptibility to absorption/resonance/non-esper resonance
  • May include abilities that aren’t strictly defined by current theories
    • Ability to consistently resonate with oneself across timelines
    • Ability to spread out consciousness across timelines
    • Ability for pairs to resonate across large spans of linear time
    • Ability to resonate briefly with others that aren’t necessarily your resonant partner
    • Etc.

36 of 39

Miscellaneous

37 of 39

Reverie Syndrome

  • AKA “Daydream Syndrome”
  • A condition in which an esper is not in control of their powers and falls into constant daydreams as a result of their inability to filter information from the morphogenetic field
  • May occur in shifters or resonant espers
    • Shifters may shift rapidly between timelines, leading to the “daydreams”
    • Espers may simply access the larger morphogenetic field and unlock overwhelming amounts of information
  • Often leads to coma, vegetative states
  • Incurable by mainstream medical knowledge

38 of 39

Memetics

  • First described by Richard Dawkins in The Selfish Gene
  • A meme is “an idea, behavior, or style that spreads from person to person within a culture — often with the aim of conveying a particular phenomenon, theme, or meaning represented by the meme”
  • Spreads cultural ideas across a population that adapt, self-replicate, and evolve throughout time
  • The morphogenetic field is responsible for the uncannily fast spread of certain memes
    • E.g. “Superman S” meme in elementary school
    • Yes I’m fucking seriously putting this in my �powerpoint. This is serious business
