Reply #19: I'm reading Lynn McTaggert's "The Field" right now. And I attended... [View All]

...a conference with Dr. Bruce Lipton who says our consciousness can affect our genetic heritage, on a personal level, and that mass consciousness can be tailored to our needs as a global community.

I am caught between finding all this really, really compelling and being annoyed at "New Agers" who think we can just sit in meditation and "create our own reality," but that taking concrete action in the outer world acts as a negation of the original intent.

I remember reading that Jung had precognitive dreams, many of them, prior to the beginning of WWII, which predicted all the horror to come. Many of us had precognitive dreams about 9/11. All of this, I think, is a perfect demonstration of the collective consciousness that Jung wrote about.

So we need to add our strong input into the field, and not let others with a different agenda fill that field with their ideas. Or is that just too simplistic?

I'm thinking out loud here, wishing I had "The Answer."
