The Earth’s Gravitational Field & Walking on Water

If we imagine ourselves standing on the floor of a room that has no windows or doors, but with full life support, and if the room is standing on the surface of the Earth, we experience the gravitational field of the Earth attracting us to the floor. This gives us the very familiar impression of weight.

If, with our knowledge, the room is taken into space, away from all gravitational fields, we will float around room in zero G, which is exactly what we would expect.

If the room is now accelerated vertically upwards with respect to the floor at a rate of 32 feet per second, we will crash to the floor as if gravity had been restored. It would actually be the force that is accelerating the room upwards being transferred to us through the floor, and being resisted in turn by the inertia of our bodies, creating the impression of weight. Under these conditions, we could say the inertia of our bodies is pushing us to the floor.

Unable to verify the cause of the force that we are experiencing, we could easily be led to believe that we are back on the surface of the Earth in its gravitational field. However, if we are told that we were accelerating through space and that it was the inertia of our bodies that gave us the impression of weight, we could believe that too, although we may wonder how such a situation could be sustained indefinitely.

In either situation, the force either attracting or pushing us to the floor would be perceived as real, but the reason for its reality would be very different in each case. Thinking of the difference between living in an objective world or a world created by the belief of a perceptual consensus, the Universal Belief (UB), is much the same.

The terminology used in this article is in accordance with the glossary.

When we think of the Earth’s gravitational field from the point of view of the UB instead of a universe of objective fact, we need to perceive ourselves as the ‘essence of the real self’ the ERS. It is actually this entity that is the Real ‘I’, the essence of consciousness and will. In this case, we perceive our ’physical’ bodies, ‘real selves’, being placed on or pushed on to the ‘ground’ within the UB, by means of the coercive interaction between all the ERSs. We will see this as being according to the ‘laws of motion & gravity’, but without implying a gravitational field.

The Real ’I’ is what is referred to here as the ERS ‘essence of the real self’ and not the real self. The ERS is what some people call the soul, an entity that we can never understand because it lives below the level of awareness, outside space and time. In fact, it is the only Real thing in our lives, whether we know it or not. In its present state, however, it is not completely Real. Thus it will remain until it gets to live in Reality, where it becomes the Real self. The real self, like the world in which the real self lives, is created by perceptual consensus of the coercive interaction within the UB.

It is too easy to envisage ourselves as the ‘real self’ perceiving an objective world outside the ‘real self’ through the eyes of the ‘real self’; a world that existed long before mankind came to be, even if we consider that we see the world through our eyes and not with them, considering ourselves to be the ERS at the seat of consciousness within the brain. We will still perceive an objective world because we are only crediting the ERS with consciousness. However, it also has will. When this will interacts with the wills of all other selves, the UB is created by perceptual consensus, a coercive interaction which is a collective belief referred to as the UB, the world in which all the selves live together. This constitutes the reality perceived.

The interaction needs to be coercive because, in their current state, each ERS is a conflicting ‘logical’ structure within itself. It is not a perfect consensus either, but the best that can be achieved under the circumstances. In terms of the UB, it is the minimum level of conflict that can be achieved while maintaining free will within each ERS.

When we think of the world as a consequence of a collective belief, we need to think of ourselves as the ERS instead of the real self. We will then perceive the real self as part of the UB, placed or pushed onto the surface of the Earth within it. I suppose that we could say that the Earth’s gravitation field results from the bending of space and time and not, after all, a mysterious attraction at a distance.

It is as if we are a community of essences of the real self, or souls, drifting around lost in space and time and yearning to get back into Reality.

In the past of the UB there was no need for gravity, as it was then believed that the Earth was flat. As the UB developed, we started to believe that the world was a spinning globe orbiting the sun every year. Under these conditions, gravity became necessary to hold us onto the surface of the Earth. Now, of course, we firmly believe that the Earth has existed for some five billion years and the universe for over three times longer. Gravity came about in the first instance because it reduced the level of conflict within the UB, some four or five thousand years ago, as we have come to think about objective space and time.

It seems ridiculous, even unnecessary, to think of the universe as a consequence of belief, but if we ever hope to reach the stars, we will have to think quite differently than we do currently, because we’ll need to travel at speeds greater than the speed of light to achieve a feat that is impossible, according to the current theory of relativity.

In the New Testament, Jesus is described as having travelled across the sea of Galilee from near Tiberius to Capernaum within the blink of an eyelid. This event can be explained using the theory being put forward in this work. It was due to the ‘charisma’ surrounding Jesus— living close to Reality—that enhanced the UB from one location to another, instantly followed by the perception of the actual change of location. NIV John 6 : 19 – 21. The trouble is that even science has blinkered vision, and is unable to think outside the box that it has created for itself.




Immediately before the incident mentioned above, Jesus was seen walking on the water of the Sea of Galilee. Jesus was living very close to Reality, ‘charisma’ as defined in the glossary, in which case the UB would have been enhanced. The ‘real self’ of Jesus would have been placed gently on the ground instead of pushed to the ground, within the UB which would be perceived as a real zero G effect. This would have made it possible for him to walk on something less substantial than dry land without sinking in to it, as would normally happen over water if gravity was maintained. This could be considered a ‘healing interaction’ under the circumstances, but because no one was aware that the UB had been enhanced, such events had to be considered ‘miraculous’ supernatural events. The experience of them was awesome to all involved, because they all thought they knew what they believed in although, of course, they didn’t. None of us truly know what we believe. We had all come to believe in the reality of the light photon, for example, long before it was ‘discovered’ by Albert Einstein, but we didn’t know it. Jesus had no conscious involvement in these events he would have just accept it as God’s will.

A Realistic understanding of God has been degraded, of late, by anthropomorphism in one form or another.

One could say, “That’s all very well, but what about the gravitation fields across the universe, which are necessary to hold the universe together?” I say, “What universe?” The universe is the UB and within the UB, as in a giant computer, the movements of the planets within the solar system as well as the movements of the stars and galaxies in the rest of the UB could be replicated to appear to be operating as if held in their orbits by gravitational fields. There would, however, be no actual gravitational fields within the computer like UB as we have come to think of them, based on our practical experience with what is considered to be the gravitational field of the Earth.

It is our understanding of the force of gravity as attraction at a distance not the reality of it which is an illusion The reality of the force of gravity is created by the coercive interaction between all the minds of humanity, how we have come to understand it is another matter. Like being in that accelerating room mentioned above, we wouldn’t be able to decide whether we were being attracted the floor by the force of gravity or whether we were being push to the floor by the force of our own inertia, caused by the acceleration. I order to be able to determine which of the two situation is actually true we need to look outside the room through a window and this is what looking outside the box means, in this case quite literally.

If we use a similar strategy to determine whether we are living in a universe of objective fact or in a universal belief , the UB, we need to look at a more complete logical picture which is achieved by allowing the content of our conscious mind to integrate with the content of our unconscious mind into one integrated logical structure below awareness level. This is a very different way of using our mind than hitherto, in fact we don’t use our mind at all, we operate almost instinctively which is living in the Real self, in the spirit so-called as an integral unit of Reality, an unimaginable state of being, similar to the state of being that the one Jesus of Nazareth lived in which is the ’new covenant relationship’ with the spirit of Reality. In this state of being we don’t think “ I am now living within the UB” or “ today I’m going to walk on water” if such a thing is necessary it will happen. In this state of being we are easily able to accept Reality for what it is and not what we could think it ought to be.

The UB is like a living computer, it is reality and. if we think of the Starry Night computer software running on a PC in which a simplified version of the solar system is replicated as a model in the form of a simple virtual three dimensional array of the solar system consisting of planets and various other bodies orbiting the sun, together with many nearby stars and other galaxies, without the need for gravity to hold the model together, if we observe the model from outside the computer. But suppose that we were imagine ourselves inside the computer as an active part of the model, the model would be perceived as our world and we would experience ourselves standing on the planet earth’s surface within that world, we would even perceive ourselves being attracted to the surface of the earth by a gravitational field, because that’s what it would feel like.

If while we a part of the model we could still think of the time that we were outside the model looking in and realize that there in no need for gravity to hold us down to the surface. The computer software would place us on the surface of the earth according to the law of gravity, so-called, without implying the existence of a gravitational field. It is exactly the same within the UB but of course the UB is the ‘real thing’ compared to the simplistic virtual computer model. Although our bodies, ‘real selves’ is actually a part of the UB we should still be able to imagine our selves within the UB from outside the UB in much the same way that we did within the computer model. In this way of thinking it is the UB that is the reality we perceive as the world in which we live which in the greater sense in the universe.

I use the example of Jesus throughout the book WAFtoT because he is the only one in history who was living close enough to Reality to be able to enhance the UB in such a spectacular way. However, because of a lack of understanding, most of humanity has adopted something like a fairy story about him, making the accounts sound like nonsense to scientific thinking minds.

A lot of what you are saying resonates in my mind as being a sort of "faith". Reality exists because we believe in it. Am I wrong in thinking this? As an example, if numerous people gathered in an area and tried to let go of their thoughts about the laws and bindings of the reality that they've been born to believe in, could they allow for things to occur that many would consider "supernatural"? If I truly believe with all of my being that I can walk on water, is it possible? I may be wrong in my understanding of what your saying, but I find this all incredibly fascinating none the less.
Thanks,

Forrest,

This is a subject that prior to this deeper way of thinking came within the realm of religion and religion due to its lack of understanding had no option but to deploy what has come to be known as faith.

Faith is for those people who want to believe in a superior being known as God but can only believe in the existence of such a God, which is a very weak interaction with Reality. When a person actually believes in God, God becomes real for that person and he or she lives in the spirit of that God, in the spirit of Reality, faith then becomes redundant. The world in which we live is real for all of us, we don’t talk about having faith in reality or even science, although at the deepest level we should, because as I point out, atoms, photons and sub atomic particles do not exist in Reality.

The reality of space and time our world, exists because we have come to believe in it collectively by perceptual consensus; a subliminal coercive interaction between all the minds of humanity which creates the universal belief, perceived in due course, as the universe. But Reality exists outside space and time and therefore has nothing to do with anything that we may think of or believe in, regarding its nature. Even if it is inspired by reality.

If a group of people gathered together not only tried but actually did, if only for a moment, let go their thoughts about the laws and bindings of the reality that they had been born to believe in, they would indeed cause events to occur that spectators outside the group would consider ‘supernatural’ events.

This is because the collect mind of the group moved a little closer to Reality than the minds around it. Any mind, collective or individual, living closer to Reality than the minds around it will enhance the universal belief that would be perceived by all those within the group as well as those outside the group as a real event but these outside the group would not be aware that belief enhancement had taken place so they would have no option but to believe that a ‘supernatural’ event had occurred.

As far as walking on water is concerned, it’s not a matter of truly believing that we can do it, but rather a matter of allowing our mind to move closer to Reality than the other minds around us, as in the example above. Even so, walking on water would only become a real event if the universal belief become enhanced by reducing the level of conflict within it, which would be perceived, in due course, as a ‘social healing’ event. If we try to believe in something consciously, the chances are that it will be in self interest, consequently coming up against the coercive interaction that will prevent it from being realized.

Once the mechanism of belief enhancement is understood, events such as these above, are no longer considered to be supernatural. As in the case of events involving technological innovation, for example which are also brought about by belief enhancement prior to the perception of the reality of such innovation. It’s a matter of being able to think outside the ’box’ into which we have inadvertently become indoctrinated.

I would have to ask why, if you've come to understand UB, are you not able to "live closer to Reality" yourself and therefore have the ability to alter reality in a way that would seem to be "supernatural" to an observer. In other words, I guess I would have to invoke a verse from the Rock Opera "Jesus Christ Superstar" - "Prove to us you're not a fool, walk across my swimming pool." :-)

SteveM,

Thank you for taking the time to think about this issue, you are making valid comments.

The problem is that we only use our conscious minds when ‘thinking’ because that is all we have access to but the unconscious mind needs to be taken in account as well although we can’t do this directly because we have no access to it. To move closer to Reality we need to let go of our conscious thoughts and allow the conscious and unconscious mind to merge into one integrated ’logical’ mind which will inevitable operate below awareness level.

Under these conditions we can no longer have conscious aspirations such as wishing or trying to walk on water. For such an event to occur it must reduced the level of conflict within the UB only then would a walking on water event or some other levitation event take place and be witnessed by all concerned.

The so-called subliminal coercive interaction between all the unconscious minds of those involved would not be able to ‘engender’ a more conflicting reality than that which is current. The coercive interaction can be thought of as a kind of safety net for humanity that prevents ‘magical’ tricks from taken place, just to amuse the crowd, that would be detrimental to all concerned. This is why all those so-called supernatural events that are purported to have taken place around Jesus were social ‘healing’ events.

Thanks again.
