Corresponding to the complex cellular structure of the brain, the brain has multiple levels of fields (and definitely not just the brain electrical field and the brain magnetic field}. The “two in one" function of cells and corresponding fields is not only far from what E. Cleuewti of IBM said that is the equivalent of ten to the power of twelve one billion bytes per second computers in series to form a computer networks, (this type of comparison merely reflects the machinery of the electronic age, but it has made a deep impression, that there is much more potential to the human brain). However, it makes a good deal of sense to refer to computers as “electronic brains". This is because receiving, storing, processing and utilizing information is a major funetion of the human brain. The difference is that the functions of the electronic brain are given to it by man, and it is under the control of man. Conversely, the human brain is the product of long term evolution of biological material and it has these capabilities of itself. In addition, the form of information, the content, the material form in which the information is carried and the corresponding time form of the electronic brain are all much more simple than those of the human brain. Furthermore, from the viewpoint of the “duality” and the “multiple layer structure” of the human brain, the information of the human brain is much more complex than that carried on a magnetic tape. We need only look at how complex the signals carried by the electromagnetic waves broadcast by a television station to realize how difficult it is to even imagine how many types of information, how much information and how complex the information carried by the fields of the human brain or “brain waves”. If the receiving, processing “including processing, storage and retrieval" and the utilization of information as well as the information which has been processed is called “consciousness”, and we remain aware of the “duality” of the brain and the complexity of the information with which the functions of the brain are concerned, we can explain a number of complex spiritual and conscious phenomena 4s well as the relationship between spiritual, consciousness, and the brain. Here, the important point is that because of the complex stratified structure of "spirit" and "QI" ain the brain, the consciousness functions of the brain cannot be simply reduced to physical and chemical or even biological functions. Second, the information of which we are currently aware is all carried on material carriers. Therefore, the information processed by the brain and which can be retrieved, stored and utilized should exist in the form of nany structured material systems, and these material systems can react on the brain. In actuality, “information”, in certain aspects, can be defined as knowledge of things through a certain time space structure of matter. If the primary mutual effects are not energy of material carriers, but are time space structure of carriers, then we can ignore its energy and believe it is a type of “spirit” or consciousness. Therefore, human spirit and consciousness effects on the brain are a type of self acting of the human body. However, this type of “self acting” cannot be 32 Approved For Release 2000/08/10 : CIA-RDP96-00792R000300010002-2

This is the third major point of the function of consciousness. Starting ont from these considerations, aS an example, we can discuss to some extent the seven emotions of Chinese medicine. According to the categorization of consciousness into “knowledge, emotion and intent", “feelings” fall into the realm of “emotions”. They can be viewed as information which has effected consciousness (it is also a series of physiological and psychological reactions brought about by information, 4 type of “god". Because “spirit, QI and god” are three parts of a whole, the “spirit” and "QI" of the various internal organs are different, and their “god" is also different. They react differently to different information. It is easier for certain information to be received by or to cause a reaction in certain internal organs. This type of information is the main emotion of that internal organ. If this information is too intense, it may cause damage to the corresponding internal organ. The thought control” “thought induction" "ideas", “concentration” of QIGONG all fall within the range of “thought” in the consciousness category. According to the discussion earlier, "thought" is also a type of information which is processed by the brain, and it must naturally have When these are retrieved and utilized, they man change the “Qi” carriers. or field status of the brain, so they use the QI or fields of the brain as carriers. This type of carrier which has a thought information field can be called a “thought field”. “Concentrating” on a certain place is much information to effect a certain place. “thought “thought field". For example, like using a certain induction" is the movement of the portion effected by the “Tdeas" are also the utilization of a type of information. “Ideas of lotus blossoms" is nothing more than plucking out “lotus blossom" information out of the brain, allowing it to effect one’s own body. "Concentration" and “jdeas" both are effects of a type of thought field on the body itself. Because they can cause changes jin the state of the body, they can also be called “thought forces". The effects of “thought forces” outside the body may be fairly complex. As an example, a group of students are playing on the exercise yard, and the teacher blows a whistle and the students all gather together. This is the thought field of the teacher acting on the nervous system to control the whistle to carry this information on sound waves to the students, causing a change in the state of activity among the students. This is the thought field using a known material form (nerves, sound and light) to effect others. This type of situation is visible all around us, and there is nothing strange about it. However, if the material form carrying the information is not a simple physical field, but is some unknown or undetectable material or material form, then it seems mysterious. Because of the reasons given above, the field components connecting human brains may be extremely complex, and they may have some qualities which are far from human 33 o Approved For Release 2000/08/10 : CIA-RDP96-00792R000300010002-2

Because of this, in some ability of the practitioner of QIGONG to use his or other material in the outside world cannot be of cases should be carefully researched to prove As for the problem of "god", especially the problem of consciousness, it involves a wide range of aspects. Tt can be said to involve ail aspects of human life. Therefore, it has always been 4 basic problem of philosophy. Here we will only take it to be a specific problem of somatic science for some preliminary unsophisticated exploratory discussions. The examples we raise are rough, but we hope that they will attract additional study. The human body is a giant system composed of the three parts of spirit, QI and god. “Spirit”, "QI" and “god" are three parts and not one. This explains that they are different. In therapy, Western medicine emphasizes “spirit” and Chinese medicine and QIGONG emphasize “QI”. Chinese and Western psychology both emphasize “god”. However, in some way or another the “three parts" are “one body". This complex giant system of is connected with the environment and the universe to form a super complex giant system. It is the task of somatic sciences to fully absorb all ancient and modern, Chinese and foreign culture and education to uncover the relationship between the nature of this giant system and the super giant system of the universe and to promote the development of the civilization of mankind through this process. three parts in one body also BIBLIOGRAPHY 1.

B. Hast From the British "Nature" magazine: In the past 18 months, the scientific world has once more come up against some newly proposed viewpoints. These are that certain people have super natural abilities, including having the ability to cause changes in the physical properties of materials. Many scientific laboratories have attempted to achieve this clear ability. What sort of attitude should be adopted when testing these viewpoints? First of all, J. 3B. Hast, D. J. Bomu (phonetic), E. W. Beisining (phonetic) and B. Aolege (phonetic) will introduce the progress in their recent work at Kenbeike (phonetic) college at the University of London. Then J. G. Taile (phonetic) of Queens College in London, the author of a book on paranormal abilities about to be published, will review the philosophical ideas involved in the work he has done. In February of 1972, We contacted Mister Youli Gaile (phonetic). In addition to taking part in the school activities of the children, we also were able to observe telekinesis phenomena during the four terms of an entire year. We have already prepared a simple observation report for those persons who are interested to read. The viewpoints proposed include: Plasticity in metals was produced ina supernatural way. Some monocrystals wrapped in vanadium calcite film Clearly disappeared. We and some witnesses hired by "Nature" magazine all very clearly believe that this topic which has historically been inconsistent and full of holes has not been fully explained in the descriptions in our report. We believe that we have made some important progress. The experience we have gained may prove useful to physicists who, like us, are interested in the mutual effects between the brain and the body. We finally recognize that in this field, the circumstances of the experiments in certain key methods and in some scientific tests are different from the common and ordinary. This is because the test subjects studied must have been produced by the brain of one or more participants. Therefore, the relationship among the participants plays a much more basic role than in ordinary traditional scientific fields. In the experiments, it is necessary to consider the personal relationships among these people, just as the interpersonal relationships must be considered in the principles of psychiatry and medicine. However, this naturally did not require us to believe in parapsychological functions from the very start. To the contrary, we were prepared to accept all possibilities. Our objective was very simple. To explore the veracity of these parapsychological ability phenomena. Actually, there served to eliminate many doubts. In this type of work, it is very natural to generate some doubt.
