Consciousness and the Neutron

In previous speculations and ruminations on how Energy can manifest itself into 4 different States, i.e. Radiative, Matter, Electricity, and Fields, and also perhaps as Consciousness, a 5th State ; and seeing as how the previous 4 States do interact with each other in some ways, wouldn't it be logical that a 5th State would also interact with one or more of the other 4 States in some way ? but how ? and in what way ?

Thus the "Synergistically Cohabitating Entity" we call a Neutron, might actually be an excellent example of how Consciousness could interact with the Special State of Matter ; in how the Neutron is an orchestrator of a very amicable, and a very close relationship between an Electron and a Proton. And in order to form a Neutron 'social rules' might come into play here, and 'hard science' takes a time out, for about 12 to 14 minutes.

Would Consciousness interact in a way so as to "smoothe the path to amicability" between the two, the Proton and the Electron, as both of whom have a 'sworn blood oath' to 'oppose and reject' each other, due to Fermion and Boson exclusionary location Dharmas. Their opposite electric charge is still an 'attraction power' ; however, 'spacial location' dharmas are in an 'oppositional format', so any kind of 'permanent combination' is not happening ! , it will remain a 'mixture' in which the 'ingredients' can be 'separated out again' to 'like before' ; which is what a Neutron will do, or revert to, when not in the 'confining nucleus' of an atom, and after some minutes. Is this "12 to 14 minute pause" before a Neutron's return to its "origins" when it is now 'outside the atomic nucleus' ; is this pause so it can reconnect with The Field, and gain an 'identity', or 'location ID' from which to 'communicate' with the rest of 'the hive' and be ID'ed for who said what, almost like politics here ; or did it need some moments to 'log in' to the hive mind and 'be recognized' !! , and this 'action' would be in the Machian Principle of how a Proton's 'gravitational constant' would be determined by its 'awareness' of how many other protons it can be aware of.

Thusly, could the Neutron exhibit some characteristics of the ways, or the results thereof, from Consciousness interacting with the Field State ? , and collaterally with the Special State of Matter. As 'Science' today has no realistic idea nor coherent explanation for why a Neutron would behave like this, neither do I, but this is definitely a worthy and opportune location to begin to ask some real questions.

Could this 'Neutron examination' now lead to asking the question of :
" If I think hard enough, can I change the Laws of Physics ?? "
Lol !! , Not all questions can be answered fully as yet.

This recent subject of Consciousness and the Four States of Energy and their possible interactions reminds me of an incident about 30 years ago here, in which the Electric State and the Field State engaged with the Special State of Matter in the most amazing and dramatic event I've ever witnessed !!! And, as the "Energy, the Four States" Paper was written in 2006-07, this '97 event was well before any of that, as well as of today's thoughts too !

Briefly, in 1997, something got my attention to look East, where I saw a rather large 'dust devil', about 10 feet in diameter at ground level, as it slowly moved North along the East 'borderline dirt road' to this 'housing tract' in the 'high desert' (4400 ft.), exactly a half mile away, as my place is at the Half Section Marker post. I watched it moving slowly northward for a while and wondered about it, what was it 'feeling' as it twisted its way Northward along the dirt road, in its 'path in Life', and also what was it that powered dust devils, and what is it like to be a 'dust devil' ? , not knowing another name for them, as I'd been seeing lots of them every year wending their way across the landscape, raising dust from wherever it was loose on the ground. My long term theory was and still is, that where you find 'chemical and electrical changes' you'll find some form of rudimentary consciousness ! This is why so many of us think of cars as being an 'entity' of some sort, and we even 'name' our cars at times !! and refer to them as her or him, rather than using a 'neutral' language pronoun.

Anyway, as 'the twister', now about 50 feet away from the metal barbed-wire fence post stake at the Section Corner, which had a 4 foot high, heavy-wire 'rabbit fence' wrapped around it a couple of times, I was thinking this should make a much better 'electrical connection' for the dust devil to connect electrically with 'earth', than the dirt road could ever make, and when it does so, the 'power' in it should increase as the improved current flow would create more 'torque', and 'spin up' the rotation speed of the 'twister'. Now, as it lugubriously and finally arrived at the section cornerpost, it stopped its travel. It then "took a deep breath", and then got very much stronger !! and substantially increased its wind speed ! and its diameter to over 20 feet !! After some moments a huge amount of dust was raised from the ground and a 'totally opaque dust wall' was very rapidly 'flying horizontal' !! Soon, small 2 foot to 3 foot diameter tiny tornadoes formed all along the outside perimeter of the totally opaque 'dust wall' that the 25 foot size 'tornado' had now formed, and the 6 or 7 of them proceeded to 'waltz' slowly around the perimeter of the dust wall cyclone, while they 'twisted-their-cares-away' !! and their 'march' was in the opposite direction of the dust wall's rotation direction. A Counter-Rotating and surrounding 'pipe wall' to the 'main cyclone cylinder' that was making the opaque dust-wall further in.

I had watched for more than 30 seconds in total at this point, and it's been beyond fascinating, and very unexpected !!! all those small tornadoes marching around the big twister like 'adherents' of some sort, but now my 'pea brain' attention span was 'flagging' and 'dragging' and about to 'crash', and I moved my eyes away from watching the giant cyclone and its 'dancing Rockette twisters', and looked away for about 6 seconds. When I looked back, the giant twister and all its dancing elves and elvettes had vanished completely !!! all that remained was a fastly slowing and disappearing cloud of dust that was still spinning, but rather slowly now, and that was it !! When my 'attention stopped', it 'vanished' !!! That was the moment that really blew my mind !!! !!! Although the dancing tiny twisters was a super big moment !!! and maybe much more important !!! as it was 'teaching me' some extremely important 'real world' electro-physics !!! but when my attention stopped, it stopped !!! !!!, or was that just a coincidence ? and my Ego was making way too much of it ?

I was always interested to know and understand what was truly happening with dust devils, and I do see them at various times of the year as the mountains and the 'electrics' of this location cause them to 'arise' quite often, but much more so in decades past than in the last decade, as they are much less often now.

In any case it was a super Top Ten Moment in Life !!! as some kind of 'communication' felt like it was definitely taking place, and this was from much before the Section Corner arrival, and then especially all during the small twisters arising, and then all the way to its demise. The 'twister' did survive on leaving the section corner ! and it continued moving slowly north-northeast, but now much reduced to its previous much smaller size and barely raising any dust at all.

It felt like 'we' had some kind of 'communication', the dust devil twister and I, and when it 'got energized' at the section corner post complex, it chose to 'show me' something of very great importance !!! as a Thank You for recognizing its 'existence' and 'sovereignty' and 'consciousness' and that it was an 'individual' itself !! Well, that was my experience, I wonder what its experience was ! This kind of event has not ever been seen again ! nor before !
Have You ever seen this happen, the small tornadoes 'marching around' a really big and strong one ? When you do, please pay extra attention to all the details of what exactly happens !! and write it all down very soon ! (like I did)

Yes, the 'real world' of Physics !! in how 'opposite rotations' will manifest in : "electric tornadoes", in Birkeland Currents, in Electric Fields as positive and negative 'particles' will be 'flying in opposite directions' and have no problem in doing that !!! as they maintain different 'radial distances' from the 'main center of rotation', and form a kind of 'pipe wall' thickness, that they 'stay within' and thus the two opposite 'lanes' of 'flying stuff ' completely stay out of each other's way !! as they stay in their respective 'pipe wall' location, and all is orderly and proceeds in a peaceful, if oppositional, progression. The Thunderbolts guys figured this "counter-rotating pipewall" stuff out ! when they and Don Scott wrote their groundbreaking, landmark Paper, "Magnetic Fields of Birkeland Currents" in 2013 !!!

Is this "twister and its adherent small tornadoes" event, how Consciousness would interact with the other Four States of Energy in the real physical world ? as per with the Special State of Matter and the Electrical State ?? This is a most interesting avenue to ponder more deeply, and to gather more 'evidence' thereon.

Now, how about Beauty ? Would "Beauty" be another example of how Consciousness might interact with the Radiative State and the Special State of Matter ? in order for Consciousness to 'express itself ' by using Matter and the Radiative State so as to be 'attractive' to various 'cognitive awareness entities' ? and thus by the 'gathering' of Conscious Aware Entities into observing 'Beauty', Consciousness would become more aware of itself by the actions of those present and within the local propinquity ? Does Consciousness have a strong desire for communication ?
