Paper for the conference "La Conscience et L’invisible: Aux Frontières De La Vie",
Eternea, Paris, 4-5th of February 2017
In this short essay I propose that the locus of the incorporeal soul resides in an electromagnetic field,
giving an example of it's journey after death. I believe this account to be significant, because it contains scientifically verifiable facts.

2. ELECTROMAGNETIC THEORIES OF CONSCIOUSNESS
Electromagnetic theories of consciousness propose that consciousness can be understood as an electromagnetic phenomenon.
Electromagnetic fields are well understood by science, we have formulae that describe them, their effects and interactions with matter can be observed.
The starting point for most EM field theories of consciousness is the increasing evidence that synchronous firing of neurons is a strong indicator of conscious perception.
In the early 1990’s it was demonstrated that neurons in monkey brains respond to two independent images on a screen in a particular way: they fire out of sync when the images are moving in different directions. But the neurons fire synchronously when the same images move together.
It was demonstrated that there was ZERO TIME LAG between synchronously-firing areas of the brain, which are in different regions. This
severely constrains any model to account for synchrony based solely on neural/synaptic signal transmission from a common source (since transmission times are different). Ref.: 1
This is just one puzzle piece of evidence that consciousness is based on EM-fields,
since those fields are not subject to the slow speed of chemical or neuronal pathways.
I will describe a physical phenomenon that has been discovered only a few years ago,
that of electromagnetic portals linking the surface of Earth to the surface of the Sun.
That the magnetosphere of the Earth and the Sun are linked somehow, is not a new idea.
The actual physical form that this connection does take, however, I find noteworthy.
By this example I wish to show that some descriptions of Near Death Experiences
may have a non-metaphysical basis in electromagnetic fields.
The strongest emitter of an EM force field in the Solar system is our Sun.

NASA has described the discovery of electromagnetic portals.
In SciFi, portals are extraordinary openings in space or time that connect travelers to distant realms, like doors into the unknown. A NASA-funded researcher has figured out how to find them. It is plasma physicist Jack Scudder of the University of Iowa, who explains them as: 'Places where the magnetic field lines of Earth connects to the magnetic field of the Sun, creating an uninterrupted path leading from our own planet to the sun's atmosphere 93 million miles away.' |
Diffuse gas—called plasma—flows outward from the sun as "solar wind" and carries with it magnetic field lines ("spaghetti") from the sun. |

Most portals are small and short-lived; others are yawning, vast, and sustained. Without it's protection, the atmosphere soon gets blown away by the solar wind, we depend on Earth's EM force field for our survival. |

Scientifically, we can convert electromagnetic vibrations into sounds at audible frequencies with relatively standard radio and audio equipment. In the Youtube video on the left signals from the Sun as recorded by NASA can be heard. (These may have been edited for effect). What is interesting is that the Suns corona and plasma vibrates harmoniously, like strings on a musical instrument. |
The portal was so large that it took up half of my field of vision. At the edges of the portal it was dark, I believed to see humanoid figures with wings, which were floating. I thougt that it looked just like pictures of Heaven, that I had seen in oil paintings. I perceived this to absurd, at that time. But I began to consider the possibility that I had died. |
Then a deep voice said to me,
"It is not time (you have not fulfilled your task)," in German.
“Es ist nicht Zeit (du hast deine Aufgabe nicht erfüllt)”.
Terribly sad I was, when I felt myself first slowly moving away from the bright light,
I was being pulled away from it, pulled back into my body.
I lay there, still, for a while.
Then I felt my body again and heard my parents talking in another room.
Subjectively, this experience had lasted for about 20 minutes.
Because I could not understand why me parents were in another room at the time when I awoke,
talking to another as if nothing had happened, I asked them for how long I had been out.
They said that it was about 2 minutes.
As long as the EM-signature of living DNA is present,
the EM field of consciousness is able to return to it's body.
On a metaphysical level, this can be described as the soul being able to return to it's assigned body, as long as it is alive.
The condition of being alive is described as living cells,
emitting their DNA signature waves.
For this to be possible, DNA would have to be shown to emit EM-waves.
In response I refer to the work of Nobel prize winner Luc Montagnier, who showed that some DNA emits EM-waves:
"A new property of some DNA molecules has been discovered,
that of emitting low frequency electromagnetic waves
in water dilutions." Ref. 4
The reason why some, but not all, DNA emits waves, has to be investigated.
7. CONCLUSION
This essay set out to present strong indicators for the validity of the concept of a theory of consciousness based on electromagnetic fields.
The testimony of a typical NDE experience has been compared to the experience of a disembodied EM-field entering an electromagnetic portal on it's way to the Sun.
As interesting I would interpret the subjective duration of my NDE, travelling the tunnel in both directions,
plus the amount of time actually spent waiting in front of the portal, before being sent back.
Consider that electromagnetic portals actually open approx. every 8.5 minutes for travel at lightspeed to the Sun,
that route taken twice making 17 minutes, plus approx. 2 minutes in conversation with a higher consciousness,
we arrive at a total time of approx. 19 minutes.
That is very close to my subjective time experience.
From this we can draw many inferences into the nature of time and the human perception of it.
The interpretation of this experience is subjective but I believe that it will resonate with many people,
once all the facts are explained in greater depth.
8. CLAIMS OF ELECTROMAGNETIC HYPERSENSITIVITY
If we think of the soul as an electromagnetic entity, it could be a self-sustaining field of consciousness, that in emergencies continues to operate in the absence of it's body and is to be able to perceive and respond to external (electromagnetic) stimuli.
The research in this field is in its infancy.
Every living organism is sensitive to EM waves. Some more, some less so.
One of the first doctors to investigate the response of organisms to EM waves was the German Erwin Schliephake, who published a paper in 1932, called "Shortwave Therapy".
Schliephake demonstrated that local application of high intensity radiowave frequencies can heat up the underlying organs. He used this effect to regress various types of cancer.
The transmitters he used operated in the 20 kilowatt range, a power 2 million times over anything that we should be exposed to by local cellphone masts or wifi routers. (The threshold value is 10.0 mW/cm2 in the USA. With the establishment of NATO, this threshold value became binding also for Western Europe.) Schliephake died in 1995, aged 100.
Nevertheless, some people say they are allergic to artificial EMR (electromagnetic radiation) and Schliephake is often misquoted.
Electromagnetic hypersensitivity (EHS) sufferers claim sensitivity to electromagnetic fields, resulting in negative symptoms. EHS is decribed as having no scientific basis and is not a recognised medical diagnosis.
The first cases of Electromagnetic Hypersensitivity were studied in the 1970s.
We, as living human beings, it is claimed, are more than just flesh and blood; we are also a highly complex electromagnetic system.
Usually, there is one trigger event that sets off a general reaction to further sources of electromagnetic frequencies (EMF). In the early days of studying this phenomenon the most common trigger was working with a new computer.
Sufferers of EHS often report warm burning sensations in the area most affected. This could be the face or one side of the head, or even a general burning sensation throughout the body. It is often described as similar to being sunburnt. There may also be physical signs such as skin rashes or blemishes as well as eye problems. Ref. 5
In a bid to combat the effects some sufferers surround themself with EM shielding and cut out all sources of radiation.
To reduce their exposure some of those affected have relocated to the United States Radio Quiet Zone (NRQZ).
