The relationship is basically a creative one, because each participans, in stretching toward the ot:1er, looses a creative impulse and energy. Between them, then, is a bond proceeding fro:a and partaking of both of the original participants, essent ally mother "other".

The tribel tote:, and national flag re2resent this unitary existence of a higher order. II. 't'houghts on the Direction of Pi l ution in Relationship It was Teilharci de Chardin who :^ost elogrentl:r described the upward urge of all :.setter toward caa,.lc::its . He pointed out that this co::idle:dty shcwsd a bent toward structures i rli ch formed life as we know it.

In experiments where the early atmosahers of the earth was reconstructed as scientists believed it to be, it was demonstrated that the interaction of ms thane, airrionia, volcanic ash, and li;;htning _nvariably causLd an;ino acids to be for:-.ed. ? hese crucial bui...d in[; flocks of the all-ica_)oi?tant protein molecule may have united by heer chance, but it .anp)ears that the dice tae's heavily loaded in uvor of life.

Backster that threats or destruction of any life, even lower forms, the plant to respond. More than this, plants became jaded in response to the destruction of lower forms of life, but not destruction of hu*nari cells.

This wreaks havoc with our animal-oriented concepts of tele?ctily because it ap_:ears that when we decide to t;.raaton life, t;-.ere is a physiological change at deep levels, posoibly at levels to which all life has access. The question is, are these the levels wherein all 1'_..fe is one? In one oxjcririent, the plants res.jonded to the death of some shrimp that were placed near t:1e+a. In an ex_.anded sense, it almost seems as though the plants are the nervous system of an im..cr_se plantar,; organism of life. It is as if the plants are res)ondi. ; so the "cut" in the body of life can be mended. III. Thoughts on the Enchange of Information and Roles in 21elationships The preference for the higher personal bond with ran is echoed by many other creatures. All manner of pets respond to human preference and are changed by it. In res..)onding to human sensitivities and renui.re:cents, ax ;als can rise above .:flat IL-'::e,} zaero.

Of course this period of eisccvery is invariably pr-aeeaed by intcnsivo stucbr, building the bona with the 11 ther", or tuning in on his frequen Idow we know so:aa thing, of the organic nature of love, on yielding onesel_ to t::e ;genet. ation and e;,-Ch nr-s with the other. By losing the old self ve gain a larger self, or selves, more precisely. i e can now understand why Sclison made h :self believe that he ]anew nothing aoout an object or a ;process ti at he 'was stud ring. i:e tran;,.:d the new entity to enter hiii, unco:ztauminatcd by the barriers of prejudice. ]a wanted a real relationship, not an analog of prior ]:notrledge pretending to be new. How did Leonardo da Vinci learn those incredible insights? By seeing them from the inside. 1-e a! lotrad the "other" to enter him, and it taught him directly because it as now an organic part of him and available for in and observation. In the iontessori system, one sinks into the depths of activity and -ains great ability to learn because the being absorbs the activity.

Relationship - In reality each participant participates in many relationships of varying levels of completeness and complexity and does this simultaneously. But with each participant there is a primary relationship and many secondary relationships. 2. Participants - Each participant can have many gradations of (+, and G )characteristics. A participant can be more Q in one direction while being more Q in another or in another. 3. Human Beings - People capable of an infinity of)Zelationships with all gradations of being. For epample the bridge on * may vary in level from the complexity of language (including mathematics) to a slight emotional bond to a full person (the child) as a bond. 4. Definitions: What a Go or O really is can never be fully defined as the relationship changes the nature of participants. This can graphically be seen even at the atomic level where man is constructing new atoms and changing old ones to suit his needs. 5. Full Being Participation in ESP It appears that various experiments both here and in the Soviet Union support the hypothesis that the whole being intercommunicates during telepathic like exchanges: a. The Russi@{s report synchronization patterns of heart rate, and brain wave patterns as well as changes in the bioplasma of participants. e viet astronomer Kozyrev claims that the density of ,me around the participants changes - that around the transmitter minishing and that around the percipient intensifying. This is the me pattern of relationship observed between active and passive -ticipants in physical science experiments (i.e. firing a ball toward -all) . c. In experiments with the plethysmograph here in the United es, it has been demonstrated that changes in the blood flow through :apillaries of the fingers are significant enough to indicate the %tion of binary telepathic information considerably above mean e expectancy.
