antenna

antenna (àn-tèn´e) noun
plural antennae (-tèn´ê)
Abbr. ant.
1. a. Zoology. One of the paired, flexible, segmented sensory appendages on the head of an insect, a myriapod, or a crustacean functioning primarily as an organ of touch. b. Something likened to this sensory appendage, as in function or form: sensitive public relations antennae.
2.  plural antennas. A metallic apparatus for sending or receiving internal linkelectromagnetic waves. In this sense, also called aerial.
[Medieval Latin, from Latin, sail yard, translation of Greek keraia, insect feeler, yardarm.]
- anten´nal adjective

antenna

antenna or internal linkaerial (âr´ê-el), system of internal linkwires or other conductors used to transmit or receive radio or other electromagnetic internal linkwaves ( RADIO; TELEVISION). In a transmitting antenna, the signal from an internal linkELECTRIC CIRCUIT causes electrons in the antenna to internal linkoscillate; these moving electric charges generate ELECTROMAGNETIC RADIATION, which is then transmitted through space. The distribution pattern of the transmitted wave depends on the design of the antenna; radio broadcast-station antennas are frequently designed to emit waves in all directions, whereas those used for RADAR and for certain communication systems internal linkfocus the internal linkwaves in a single direction. In a receiving antenna, electromagnetic waves cause the electrons in the antenna to oscillate, inducing a signal that can be detected by an electric circuit. In general, a longer antenna is used to transmit or receive signals of longer wavelengths. Theoretically, the same antenna can be used both for sending and for receiving signals, but in practice, transmitting antennas are constructed to handle higher power loads than receiving antennas. Phased array antennas, used for long-range radar and radio astronomy, are composed of large groupings of individual antennas that are aimed electronically by changing the relative phase of the signal at each antenna.

to me, the purpose for us, as floating internal linkbrains, is that of a tranceiver.  a two way (at least) communication system that re-interprets internal linkchaoticHail Eris! data into an individualized internal linksubjective   internal linkfilterstream.  transmission on the other hand is a bit mysterious.  i like to think that i'm uploading my compiled data while i sleep in the form of internal linkdreams.  but uploading to where?  when?  morphogenetic fields?  the big internal linkdatabase in the sky...? - @Om* 4/27/00

"To the present there has been little systematic clinical study or scientific investigation of the internal linkKundalini phenomena, although certain discrepancies between the classical descriptions of Kundalini experience and modern clinical findings have led Western researchers to propose a 'physio-kundalini' model to account for their observations. This concept has been derived from a model proposed by Itzhak Bentov, an American researcher who approached the problem of internal linkaltered states of consciousness through studies of the effects of  vibration-internal linkfrequencies on human physiology.

That a sequence of unusually strong physiological reactions accompanies the rise of Kundalini we already know from Tantric texts, from which we also learn to expect a series of unusual psychological changes. Most meditators understand these to be the effect of the meditation internal linkprocess and so are not unduly alarmed. However, among non-meditators or among socio-cultural groups who do not have access tointernal linkinformation about Kundalini energy, similar reactions may be triggered off by environmental stimuli. The experiements of Bentov show that exposure to certain mechanical vibration, electromagnetic waves or sonic vibration can be responsible. The resultant symptoms, presented for medical internal linkattention, have not till recently been fully recongnized or understood for what they are. It is Itzhak Bentov who in his various experiements indicates that far from being a neurotic aberration, these 'kundalini' states indicate an alteration in consciousness linked to alterations in bodily rhythm and bio-magnetic field.

Bentov's observations (using ballistocardiogram) of the seated subject engaged in deep meditation reveal a rhythmic sine wave pattern. He attributes this to the development during the course of meditation of a 'standing wave' in the aorta, the main artery from the heart, that is reflected in rhythmic motion of the body. This resonating oscillator -the heart aorta system- in turn 'entrains' further bio-oscillators -the brain, the cerebral ventricles and the sensory cortex of the brain- which together effect a modification of the cerebral magnetic field.
Information in formation

This co-ordinated system activates a travelling stimulus, an oscillating 'current', in the sensory cortex tissue, which is finally polarized to a point where each hemisphere of the brain produces a internal linkpulsating magnetic field. Bentov writes: 'This magnetic field -radiated by the head acting as an antenna -interacts with the electric and magnetic fields already in the environment. We may consider the head as simultaneously a transmitting and receiving antenna, tuned to a particular one of the several internal linkresonant frequencies of the brain.'

Bentov suggests that the 'kundalini' effect may be regarded as part of a development of the nervous system: 'We can postulate that our magnetic 'antennae' will bring in internal linkinformation about our extended system -the planet and the internal linksun- and will allow us to interpret geophysical phenomena and signals to better advantage.'"
