At the end of the 19th century, Dr. Albert Abrams in San Francisco, a quite wealthy man, traveled to Europe for advanced medical studies. During that trip he watched the famous Italian tenor Enrico Caruso tap a glass to produce a pure tone, then sing the same note to shatter the glass. This led him to the idea that sound frequencies might be applied to medical conditions. This led over the years to a sequence of dramatic discoveries which resulted in his creating an electronic device that could send out frequencies which matched the tone frequency of a disease, and in the process cure the disease. Many people were treated successfully via his machines. After her death the spirit of Betty White (early episodes) explained to her husband in 1939 that everything in the material world has its own frequency, and that matter was "an arrested frequency," slowed down from the spirit world for our dense material world. The entity Seth in the 1960s and 70s explained much the same thing.

This session continues the story of UKACO and their success in ridding crops of pests by projecting a photo of the field to be tested, along with a small sample of the pest treatment, which was also placed on the "collector plate" used for projectiing the photo. A highly place Pennsylvania agricultural official was convinced of the effectiveness of their strange process, but officials at the US Dept of Agriculture were not. Apparently they were afraid the same process could be used to kill humans in a war. Despite the solid evidence of its success, they declared the process was a fraud and eventually the company was forced to close. The key takeaway here is that, in their patent application, UKACO pointed out that every material thing has its own unique frequency, a point emphasized by Betty White in 1939 after she died, while speaking to her husband through a medium (see the early episodes).

More than 70 years ago, three Princeton graduates with scientific/technical skills created a company named UKACO to kill crop pests without the use of insecticides. A tiny amount of poison, along with a photo of the field to be treated, was placed on a "collector plate" of their invention, which projected over the field the image of the field and poison. They were successful in reducing the number of insects harmful to the crops being treated, and so were farmers who learned how to use their equipment on a wide variety of crops. The theory was that the frequencies projected were the same frequency of the particular poison used. That would be consistent with the definition of matter as an "arrested frequency." Betty White in an early episode explained after her death that, for every material thing on earth, there is an individual frequency corresponding to its frequency outside the material plane, in the greater spirit world. The UKACO story, its successes and eventual demise, will be continued in the next episode.

Marcel Vogel's experiments with plants led him to learn that people can unite with plants, and that plants can have their feelings hurt by the thoughts of humans. They also react to talk about sex, and even to figments of our imagination. More important, they led Vogel to conclude that scientists need to unite with the object being studied in order to learn anything meaningful about the object. His experiments also demonstrated the immense power of focused thought. Many of his conclusions agree with statements made by the entity Seth.

Marcel Vogel, a noted reseach chemist working for IBM who made important contributions to the development of color TV and computer memory, became aware of Cleve Backster's experiments with plants. He decided to continue with further experiments using a lot of scientific equipment, and found that he could personally duplicate Backster's results wile others could not. This led to a further series of experiments which led Vogel to conclude that plants not only have emotions, but they also develop attachments to specific humans. The implications led him to further conclusions about the connectedness of everything and how matter is formed. His conclusions agree with the teachings of the entity Seth on these matters, teachings that were explained in detail in earlier episodes.

Starting in 1966, Cleve Backster, the country's foremost lie-detector examiner, began a series of scientific experiments that proved plants are not only conscious, but can perceive what a human is thinking, and even know ahead of time a person's intentions, as to whether that person intende to carrry out an action or not. This led to several other experiments by him and other scientists which not only confirmed Backster's initial findings, but also demonstrated that plants can communicate instantly over great distances, that their awareness extended down to the sub-atomic level, and they have other capabilities that humans apparently do not. This episode relates Backster's conclusions and theories that agree with what the entity Seth and other "dead spirits" have told us, and what quantum physicists had concluded as far back as the 1950s. The implications are that to continue advancing as it has in the past, our science needs to start uniting with the subject being studied, rather than separating from it.

Scientific instruments are useful only in measuring the level of reality in which they themselves exist. For studying the deeper realities that support this reality, within and behind it so to speak, they are useless. The basic problem is that our scientists think they can learn about the nature of something by separating from it and studying it as something apart from themselves. True science requires joining and identifying with whatever is being studied. That applies to any visible or invisible manifestation of consciouness. Past civilizations have understood this and made advances in studying the universe that we have not yet made. Subsequent episodes will give examples of the limits of our science in one very important field - agriculture. They will be taken largely from the 1972 best seller, "The Secret Life of Plants."

The outside world we experience each day is created by us from the inside. While the outside world is an illusion we co-create, it a meaningful illusion with a purpose, one we can learn and grow from spiritually. The problem with our scientific method when we think we can learn something by separating from it and destroying it, then dissecting it, is that this method never comes close to helping us understand the true nature of reality. We will do that only when we learn to use our consciousness in such a way that we can identify with whatever is being studied, and "feel" the true reality. Einstein is the scientist who came closest to using this method. He "leaned against time" and felt it wobble.
