ANIMA MUNDIInbuilt into the physical properties of our Home Planet thereis a blueprint for making brains.This presentation offers information that suggests that thisstatement might be true!


Mind’.Perhaps you have heard of Plato’s <strong>Anima</strong> <strong>Mundi</strong>?It is sometimes translated as meaning ‘WorldTherefore, we may consequently state that: thisworld is indeed a living being endowed with a soul andintelligence ... a single visible living entity containing allother living entities, which by their nature are allrelated.—Plato, Timaeus, 29/30; 4th century BCE


This is the diagram of the <strong>Anima</strong> <strong>Mundi</strong> orLAPIS PHILOSOPHORUM. It is copied fromJung’s book Aion. Each of the four quarters of the circlerepresent one of The Four Elements.‘The lapis (the philosopher’sstone) consists of the fourelements or has to be puttogether from them’.Morienus, from TractatusAureus, Aion, p 236-237.‘And as a man is made up offour elements, so also is thestone, and so it is dug out ofman, and thou are its ore’.Ibid, p. 168.


The Four Elements of Greek science symbolise afundamental psychological categorisation yet they alsohave very ‘real’ physical properties.Solid Earth and liquid Water have gravity (they fall).Restless Air and energetic Fire have levity (they rise).David Bowman writes in his article ‘The World onFire’ (New Scientist, Oct 10, 2009):‘.. the Greeks had it right with their classification offire, air, earth, and water …’


Psychological classificationEarth: Sensing provides us with information about our exteriorphysical reality. Is it hard or soft? Is it comfortable or unpleasant? TheEarth’ s gravity plays a major role in sensing.Water: Feeling supplies information on our internal reality. Theheart pumps the blood around our bodies. When we are frightened itspeeds up. When we feel relaxed it slows down. Feelings speak throughborrowing metaphors from earth and fire. If we are happy we say we arefloating on clouds, sometimes we feel weighed down by anxiety. We canfeel bright or filled with darkness.Hardware. Earth and Water = the chemistry of our being:Our bodies are made of Earth and Water.Air: Thinking, Air, carries information. Sound waves are symbolisedby Air, as is the electrical activity in our brains.Fire: Intuition - ‘I see’, we say. Intuition ‘knows’ things that canbe difficult to convey using words (in this sense it is akin to feeling). TheSun is a great furnace. It gives light. Without it we would have no need foreyes. Intuition knows because it sees.Software. Air and Fire = the physics of our being:these, ‘elements’, symbolise processes.


Shakespeare’s sonnets 44 and 45 are born of thisexpressive psychological categorisation. Sonnet number44 is concerned with the frustrating inadequacies thatcome with the heavy, negative elements, Earth and Water.If the dull substance of my flesh were thought,Injurious distance should not stop my wayFor then despite of space I would be brought,From limits far remote, where thou dost stay.No matter then, although my foot do standUpon the furthest earth removed from thee,For nimble thought can jump both see and landAs soon as think the place where it would be.But ah, thought kills me that I am not thoughtTo leap large lengths of miles where thou art goneBut am so much of earth and water wroughtI must attend time’s leisure with my moan.Receiving naught by elements so slow,But heavy tears, badges of either’s woe.


Sonnet number 45 is concerned with the light,positive elements, Fire and Air.The other two, slight air, and purging fire,Are both with thee, where-ever I abide,The first my thoughts, the other my desire,These present absent with swift motion slide.For when these quicker Elements are gone,In tender embassy of love to thee,My life, being made of four, with two alone,Sinks down to death, oppressed with melancholy.Until life’s composition be recurredBy those swift elements returned from theeWhich even but now come back again assuredOf thy fair health, recounting it to me,This told, I joy, and then no longer glad,I send them back again and straight grow sad.


Astrologers identify Signs of The Zodiac withThe Four Elements.Aries, Leo, and Sagittarius, are Fire signs.Gemini, Libra, and Aquarius, are AirFire and Air are positive elementsTaurus, Virgo, and Capricorn, are Earth signs.Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces, are Water signs.Earth and Water are negative elements


It was December 18, 1984, and I was reading Relating by LizGreene. Liz is an expert on Jung. On the left you can see Liz’sdiagram based on the Philosopher’s Stone (a copy of the original isprinted on the right at an angle of 45 degrees). Liz is illustratinghow the elements merge, creating four additional cognitiveprocesses.AirEarthFireWaterGreene, L, Relating; An Astrological Guide to Living with Others on a Small Planet.UK, Thorsons Publishers Ltd, 1977.


Air/thinking merges with fire/intuition to createintuitive-thinking.Air/thinking merges with earth/sensing to createempiric-thinking.LizGreeneWater/feeling merges withfire/intuition to createintuitive-feeling.Water/feeling merges withearth/sensing to createsensory-feeling.


Pisces is a Water sign … but Astrologers tell us that Piscespeople are intuitive-feeling types. Why is Pisces related tointuition, fire? This immediately makes sense if we placePisces on this background diagram in the section markedwater where it merges with fire.HERE


Sensual feeling is the realm of physical sexuality.Taurus is physical sexuality. What is it that Chaucer’swife of Bath says: ‘Born under Taurus and with Marstherein, Alas, alas, that ever love was sin.’


#Aquarius, famed for technological and scientificprowess, was certainly empiric-thinking.


I gave Leo, ruled by our very own cosmic furnace, the centralposition of fire. Then I positioned Aries in intuitive-thinking. Aries(not noted for emotional sensitivity) rules the head, wherethinking takes place.##That left Sag for intuitive feeling. I thought about my Sag friendsand I understood for the first time why they were sentimental.Not feeling, exactly, but a sort of intuition tinged with feeling.Walt Disney is a famous Sag. You can’t get much moresentimental than Walt.


######Dry as dust Capricorn I put in empiric thinking (far from Water).Here was the businessman interested in the reality of money(Earth), using the air tool ‘thinking’ to work out the best way tomake it work for him.


#### ####Libra, next to fire, added passion to love, while green-fingeredVirgo fitted the idea of the modest earth in which things grow.Gemini was pure thinking – of course. Gemini is not concernedwith earthy facts, they get in the way of a good story, and hot,fiery passion, excuse me .. we are talking about Gemini here.


I put Scorpio as centre of water because of the depth of Scorpio’sfeelings and I ‘intuited’ that if I joined these signs up accordingto the way they are arranged on the Zodiac it should make a nicetidy pattern.##"#"?"####Owch!It didn’t.


Then I heard a radio announcement about a sex murder. It wasScorpionic! So, I moved Scorpio to the sensual feeling position andCancer into pure water, (what was I thinking, of course Cancer -ruled by the Moon - is water uncontaminated by other elements)and I applied my test.###" #######


00 ARIESThe Sun moves around the Earth against thebackground Zodiac like this ..


… beginning with the spring equinox, 00Aries, we can apply this progression to thesigns we have placed on The Philosopher’sStone. The Sun’s path around the Earth ispictured on the right.THEZODIACTESTHere is Aries(intuitive-thinking)on the Philosopher’sStone diagram.


So here we go –From Aries to Taurus…


From Taurusto Gemini …


From Geminito Cancer …


From Cancerto Leo …


From Leoto Virgo …


From Virgoto Libra …


From Librato Scorpio …


From Scorpioto Sag …


From Sag toCapricorn …


From Capricornto Aquarius …


- to Pisces …


… and back to Aries.


THIS IS IT! Of the many ways these points could beconnected very few create symmetry and half of those are thesame pattern upside down. I think that we can say that THEZODIAC TEST has been a success.


So now, if we now stand this result on it’spoints, we are back with Jung’s originaldiagram of the Philosopher's Stone.+


Look … this pattern is biologically significant - it displaysbilateral symmetry. Bilateral symmetry came about because ofan evolutionary momentous change that occurred in DNA. Eversince the first worm appeared in the Cambrian era birds,mammals, insects, and plants display bilateral symmetry.


And what is going on here! Look at these Bilateral Pairs!From a symbolic point of view they have lined up in anuncannily logical way. 45 This is the primal couple, the Leo SUN and the CancerMOON, they symbolise Father and Mother. They worktogether as a team - together they nurture the child. Icalled the child LIFE.


Mysticism and Philosophy, Pisces (Neptune) and Sagittarius(Jupiter) were both traditionally ruled by Jupiter. Here we arelooking at a wet, warm (water + fire) environment. Thepsychologist Stan Groff writes: ‘undisturbed intrauterine life issynonymous with Pisces’ ruling planet Neptune’. Sag’s rulingplanet Jupiter stands for expansion and development.SOURCE12 Mysticism Philosophy 9


The next pair finds us back with LIFE.LIFEOut of the SOURCE (the womb) LIFE is born into theworld. And here it is?


Scorpio and Aries, both originally ruled by Mars, symboliseBirth and Death. Mars also means war, which conjures upimages of death, while Pluto, Scorpio’s new ruling planet,means ‘regeneration’. Every moment is born out of the deathof the previous moment. Born into LIFE we are presented withconstant changes that we call TIME …8 Death TIMEBirth 1


… and what is happening here! Everything comes together at thispoint. The diagram on the right is Herman Minkowski’s spacetimemodel. (Minkowski was Einstein’s tutor). It displays a pasttime cone and a future time cone and between the two is thepoint he calls … ‘the present’.FUTUREtimePAST‘the present’.space


‘The mandala first comes into consciousness as an impressivepoint or dot’, says the Tractatus Aureus. (Aion, p. 32.) Thispoint ‘being nothing and consisting of nothing, becomes a‘certain magnitude incomprehensible by thought’, saysHyppolitus. (Aion, p.199.)NOW is ‘a point’,‘consisting of nothing …incomprehensible bythought.’Is this ‘the point’they mean?


FORM incarnates out of the moment in TIME, both physicaland theoretical form – memories, concepts, words, music,drawings, this floor, this window, this body, you, me …EVERYTHING!2 PhysicalBeautyFORMTheoretical 7Beauty


Practical Virgo and intellectual Gemini provide the skills we needto accomplish something, to WORK. Out of the unconscious,born of the moment in TIME, something takes on a FORM thatwe can grasp, that we can consciously work with. Gemini isconcerned with communication and Virgo rules libraries. Hereideas are disseminated and shared.6 Practical WORKIntellectual 3


WORK brings into being property, authority, status, evenidentity … Here, at the top, is the place of honour and ofgovernment; I gave it the title WEALTH.10 Business WEALTH Science 11


The old ruler of Aquarius is Saturn, but the new ruler is Uranus –the planet discovered by William Herschel in Bath. Astrologersunderstand that Saturn/Chronos and Uranus/Ouranus are alwaysat war. The top position on this model, WEALTH, is inherentlyunstable.‘As Chronos castratedOuranus, so astrologicallydoes Saturn cut off thecreative impulse and potencyof Ouranus. This imageencapsulates the basic war inall our psyches’.Howard Sassportas,The Gods of Change, 1989.‘The astrological Uranus isperceived as being perpetuallyengaged in a struggle withSaturn Kronos, aiming tobreak restricting barriers. …This battle of the gods is aninnate living pattern in all ourpsyches …’Haydn Paul, RevolutionarySpirit.


Here we see how, according to what we know of Uranus andSaturn, the upward flow breaks up at the top, WEALTH,and returns to the SOURCE.‘… to see the world and grasp it as paradoxical, we must break with our familiaracceptance of it … and from the break we can learn nothing but theunmotivated upsurge of the world’.Merleau Ponty, The Phenomenology of Perception, xv.


I gave these bisymmetric pairs the title‘Complementary Connections’.‘Complementary’ meansto make complete.Each of these connections describe a yin-yang,negative-positive, mass-energy, space-time expressionof a single phenomenon.


WEALTH10 11WORK6 32FORM784TIMELIFE15SOURCE12 9COMPLEMENTARY CONNECTIONS


Anyone familiar with the Chineseoracle the I Ching will recognise thesesix lines as the six lines of a hexagram.On the right (the positive signs) thesix lines of The Creative –on the left (the negative signs) thesix lines of The Receptive.I liked the way the house numbersadd up 21, 9, 9, 9, 9, 21.21 + 21 =??????????


Earth is the only planet we have yet discovered in which thefour elements, earth/air/fire/water exist independently and inlarge quantities. The philosopher’s stone symbolises the <strong>Anima</strong><strong>Mundi</strong>, it means Living World or World Mind.AIR and FIRELevityGravityEARTH and WATER


Because it describes conditions on Planet Earth I began to call thisnew alignment of the signs –THE EARTH ALIGNMENT


We are, ALL OF US, generated out of the elements ofour mother planet.Earth and Water make up our physical being, ourblood, and (as Shakespeare noted) our flesh: these arethe chemistry of our being. Fire and Air, heat andoxygen, supply the energy with which we think and act– the physics of our being.But Mother Earth does not exist all on her own.Traditionally she is the female component of a divineduo.Her consort is Heaven.


Mother EarthandHEAVEN


Space-timeOur Home Planet provides us with all thematerials we need to construct bodies.(The Receptive Earth).It is her movement within the encompassingheaven that cause the changes we call ‘time’.(The Creative Heaven).It is time that ‘creates’ conditions that allow usto ‘Evolve’.


This is the map that we have constructed to keep tabs on Earth’sconstantly changing surroundings. It is called ...… the Zodiac.THEZODIACRemember- we have already usedthis familiar model totest the arrangementof signs on thePhilosopher’s Stone.


The Complementary Connections are also displayed on the Zodiac(though in a different order). THEY MUST BE IMPORTANT!This is calledThe Ptolemaic Order.When the great ClaudiusPtolemy was alive theyonly knew of sevenplanets so the signs hadto share. Only Cancerand Leo had a planet oftheir own.


BACKGROUND INFORMATIONIt was the invention of the telescope that allowed us todiscover Uranus. With this discovery Aquarius gained a rulingplanet that reflected its meaning more precisely. Uranus, planet ofenlightenment, invention and discovery, discovered in 1781,brought revolution to all walks of life. The new power waselectricity. Collective ideas were de rigour: freedom, brotherhoodand equality. This is the positive yang pole of the connectionWEALTH and GOVERNMENT.Neptune gave us drugs and film – the new power was gas.Neptune has power over our unconscious, our emotions. This is thenegative yin pole complementary connection SOURCE.Pluto gave us crude oil, depth psychology. It brought nuclearpower which gave birth to plutonium, and we REALISED the idea ofrelative TIME.We looked at our first picture of Earth from space in 1961.Astrologers believe that each time a new planet is seen we take amomentous EVOLUTIONARY step into our future.For more information see ‘The Pattern of Evolution’.


And here is another surprise! If you follow the dates the new ruler’swere first seen you can see another pattern that nobody has noticebefore, this time it is on the Zodiac.Uranus 1781Neptune 18461930 PlutoEarth 19611977 ChironNot all astrologers would agree with my awarding Earth to Taurus,or Chiron (an escaped asteroid) to Virgo, but years of observationhave convinced me that these applications are significant.


Let’s see what happens if we continue this patternthrough the other signs beginning with the Sun and theMoon - The Primal Pair.Moon ruler ofCancerSun rulerof Leo


Mercury rulerof Gemini.


Venus rulerof Libra.


Mars rulerof Aries.


Jupiter, rulerof Sag.


Saturn, ruler ofCapricorn.


Uranus, new rulerof Aquarius.Discovered in1781


Neptune, newruler of Pisces.Discovered1846


Pluto, new rulerof Scorpio.Discovered in1930


Earth, newruler ofTaurus. Firstseen 1961(I found this glyph forEarth in the CollinsEnglish Dictionary. It’sVenus upside down!)


Chiron, Discovered1977. New ruler ofVirgo: I have nowadded (with first classjustification ) the protoplanetwhich is known asthe Main Asteroid Belt.


SO .. IS THIS IT?THE PATTERN OF EVOLUTION


And what about this!Yes, it looks like DNA. It doesn’t ONLY look like DNA it isarranged structurally like DNA !DNA consists of a double string of simple molecules called bases. There areonly four bases; these are adenine, A, guanine, G, thiamine, T andcytosine, C. The Pattern of Evolution is made up of four elements; these areEarth, Air, Fire, and Water. In DNA the base adenine always links withthiamine and the base guanine always links with cytosine. This is reflectedby the pattern on the Earth Alignment. Earth always links with Air, Wateralways links with Fire.


I discovered the first Pattern in 1984, by 1986 I hada collection. A friend (Tania) said, ‘why don’t you drawup a chart with them all on the same page’.It was a good idea.The next slide is a copy of the original hand drawnchart. On the left you see the old Zodiac - a map ofHeaven, point 00 Aries marking the crossing of twomajor celestial equatorial fields, the Earth’s and theSun’s. On the right the new Earth Alignment.Deeply interested in the Chinese philosophy ofDaoism, I gave them the title ...Patterns of the Tao.


You can see there is a missing pattern where Ihave put the question mark.?I decided to make up for this by drawing thesame order of planets you see on the Zodiaconto the new Earth Alignment.


You will be used to this by now.


So, Here it is.


I drew it up on the diagram and I called itthe Pattern of Evolution II … OBVIOUSLY…because it was the pair to Evolution I.


It had two triangles just like the Earth Alignment – it alsohad two unaccountable wings.wingwingI HADN’T GOT A CLUEWHAT IT MEANT!


Forebrain… Until I read a bookby Ronald Shonewhich mentioned thetwo wings of thecerebral cortex.LeftHemisphereLimbicSystemcerebrumCerebellumCore brainRightHemisphere


The question was obvious.Is this a Map of the Brain?LeftRightRightLeftForebrainLimbicSystemcerebrumCerebellumCore brain


I knew the positions and the meanings of the symbols so Ibegan to study the brain. Here is the new Pattern ofEvolution II drawn to cover the whole sign.LeftRightIt even looks like a brain!


XXX marks thespot.XX marks the spot where the brain and spinal cord meet. It is theplace where the brain both receives information and returns it tothe body. Merleau Ponty puts it - rather poetically: … thebody is solidified or generalised existence, andexistence a perpetual incarnation.


XThe cerebellum is the primitive brain, the snake brain, LIFE.Contemplating our primeval ancestor living in the primordial sea,I wondered if the Sun represented sensitivity to light and theMoon sensitivity to pressure (the moon rules the tides and soundis a pressure), and whether the two wings of the cerebrumdeveloped as a refinement of these original sensitivities. Recentstudy has brought up another correlation. Primitive organismshave eyes and mouths for feeding. The Moon rules Cancer -nourishment?The forebrain or frontal lobes are concerned with personality andidentity. The complementary connection WEALTH.


Do you remember the Complementary Connections? Astrologyinforms us that Mercury rules communication and hands. This isthe Motor Cortex and complementary connection WORK.Motor CortexSOMATOTOPICAL MAPshowing Right Motor Cortex.WORKThe Left Motor Cortex mirrors the Right.According to the model, the yin/left (Virgo), is responsible for the physical productionof speech (Brocca), the yang/right (Gemini) for the unspoken word.


And this is the Somatosensory Cortex. On the left Taurus/Venus is sensual. She is also connected with opera singers. Onthe right, Libra/Venus is erotic. Venus also symbolises harmonybeauty and balance. Notice the pharynx and genitals on thesomatotopical map of the somatosensory cortex. This is thecomplementary connection FORM.FORMSomatosensoryGEMINI CortexMercuryThe Right Somatosensory Cortex mirrors theLeft. Again, yin/left physical, yang/rightcreative/imaginal.


These are called homunculi – you can see them in The BritishMuseum of Natural History, Oxford. It was these models thatsuggested to me that the ancient gods are metaphors for specificregions of the brain. We have only recently learnt how to see thebrain in operation – previously our brains could only speakthrough metaphor.


This is a page fromClive Wearing's Diary. Itwas printed in ColinBlakemore’s, The MindMachine, BBC Books,1988.Clive suffered from adamaged Hippocampus.The hippocampus is a partof the forebrain – the partof our model that is ruledby Saturn and Uranus.Saturn demands‘Patience’ and Uranus isthe ‘awakener!’Is this just coincidenceor what?


HEART and MINDSaturn =patienceUranus =awakeEmpiric-thinkingMINDHere is the forebrain onour model. Theforebrain is equated bybrain specialists withMIND.Intuitive–feelingHEARTThe Sun and Moon inastrology symbolise theHeart (the Sun) and theInstincts (the Moon).


This is picture of Old Father Time,Greek Kronos/Chronos, Roman Saturn.He is devouring one of his children. (Weare all devoured by time). The wordsChronological, Chronic and Old Croniesderive from the metaphor for this god.Saturn’s mother was Gaia, Earth. He isusually pictured with the scythe that heused to cut off his father Uranus’ genitals.To be fair to Saturn, Uranus, god ofrebellion, revolution, disruption andchange was an irresponsible father andSaturn is responsible to the point ofabsurdity. Regulation and control areSaturnian words.I had given up hope that anyonewould ever take an interest in this modelwhen something happened thatreawakened my own dormant sense ofresponsibility.


I was watching Michio Kaku’s BBC 4 programme‘Time’. Michio went to Duke university where Dr Meekwas conducting MRI scans in order to determine theposition of, what he called, the brain’s ‘chronological’clock.So what symbol does an astrologer connect withChronos, time?YES Saturn.Check this out …


Warren Meek proves there is a part of the brain whichkeeps track of time’. Michio is saying – ‘Oh look at this – isthis the chronological clock in my brain?’ And Warren Meekanswers, very assertively, ‘Yes’.Where is Saturn on our model? Yes .. the frontal lobe.http://www.bbc.co.uk/mediaselector/check/bbcfour/media/time1b?size=16x9&bgc=C0C0C0&nbram=1&bbram=1BBC 4 TV docuclip HTLM Doc Documentary Michio Kaku TIME.


BANG GOES THE THEORYSeries 2, episode 3 April 2010.Bang Goes the Theory, also featured an fMRI scan, this time itwas set up to show us which part of the brain is active whensomeone is lying. Guess what? Yes, it was Mercury.Astrologers know that Mercury is the God of thieves and liars!Wiki: In the Roman adaptation of the Greek religion (seeinterpretatio romana), Hermes was identified with the Romangod Mercury, who, though inherited from the Etruscans,developed many similar characteristics, such as being the patronof commerce. An Olympian god, he is also the patron ofboundaries and of the travelers who travel across them … ofthe cunning of thieves and liars,[1]


http://brightcove.newscientist.com/services/player/bcpid96978243001?bctid=596623572001And this is from an article in the NewScientist: It relates to the Parietal Lobes -the Aries/Scorpio complementary connectionthat confronts us with passing time. NotSaturn time, not organised time, but theconstant movement brought about by whatPonty poetically calls the upsurge of theworld. This is the part of the brain you needactivated when crossing a busy road.The picture is an example of something that can be viewed indifferent ways. The researchers used a revolving sphere.The article said: To test whether or not the Superior ParietalLobe had a role in triggering the switch, the researchersstimulated each lobe with a magnetic field - effectivelyknocking out the function of that lobe - while thevolunteers rewatched the sphere illusion. The team foundthat the switch rate slowed when either lobe was exposedto the magnetic field. (Current Biology,DOI: 10.1016/j.cub.2010.07.027).


Long ago I had produced an AI systembased on this brain model. I took it tofriend doing PhD in AI so that he couldannihilate my theory. This is what Iwrote about this position.Here the machine is motivated to takeup the data and play with it. Thepurpose of this pioneering Ariesprogramme is to initiate somethingnew, alter things around just as youwould turn jigsaw puzzle piece to seeif you can find an angle at which it would fit a particular gap.And here is what the specialists wrote:"One possibility is that the SPL is actually triggering theperceptual switches by sending a signal to 'reset' the illusion,"says Kanai. "Or it could be that people with a large SPL arebetter at noticing other possible interpretations for theambiguous sphere, which would also result in a faster switchrate.“Aries is notoriously impatient – Is this why?


Oh yes – by the way – much to his bewilderment myfriend failed to annihilate the model.He called it ‘a perfect natural intelligence system’ …which is exactly what I thought it probably was!


Anyone viewing this presentation who is familiar with the I Ching might like to see how itcorrelates. The arrows point to the ruling lines, the spots indicate their position on thepattern. The model mimics the yin yang symbol above. The two archetypal systems, oneEastern in origin, one Western, correlate. If archetypes are the deepest patterns ofpsychic functioning as James Hillman, and Carl Jung believe, then it’s not surprisingthat they manifest in a similar manner in separate esoteric systems?Ruling Line of Heart.The Receptive Earth.Six in the secondplace: Straight,square, great, withoutpurpose, yet nothingremains unfurthered.NEGATIVEAAAPOSITIVERuling Line ofMind. TheCreative Heaven.Nine in the fifthplace: Dragonflying in theheavens.For more info .. See <strong>Anima</strong><strong>Mundi</strong> and the I Ching.


So, after that brief introduction (there is lotsmore), how did the ancients know to call thephilosopher’s stone World Mind?If this model has any grounding in truth, then,our brains, as part of the <strong>Anima</strong> <strong>Mundi</strong> (the totalintelligent living experience) are in communicationeven though the modern scientific mechanisticparadigm would find this idea difficult to accept.
