Gaia Consciousness
The picture below is an actual photograph taken by Stephane Vetter, not a computer simulation, and shows the interaction which is happening between the ionosphere and the troposphere, part of the unknown mechanism of solar-planet functioning which gives credence to the spiritual concept that planets are living beings, albeit unfathomably different to our own being, which is but a part of all this.
There are roughly 50 lightning events happening every second around the globe, creating a perpetual electrical activity. Above the ~2000 thunderstorms that are a constant presence in our atmosphere, there occur these enormous sprites, which are fleeting plasma phenomena lasting only a fraction of a second, which shoot tendrils upwards as well as downwards connecting the outer atmosphere which is charged by the sun, to the lower atmosphere of the Earth.
I can't help wondering whether these Sprites that occur high above the thunder clouds are some sort of neural equivalent to ours that might be part of the functioning of a level of consciousness of the planet. It would be impossible for us to confirm or deny, as if there was indeed some form of consciousness happening, it might be very different to our own, and maybe something quite different altogether.
Then again, maybe our own base consciousness is the actual experience of Earth consciousness. It would be the second level of presence, without sensory awareness (because it is us who are those senses of the Earth/Gaia), that would be this shared consciousness state. The totality and absoluteness of this experience, without thought or physical sensation, is not us at all, but the whole planet as one.
As soon as any thinking occurs or even acknowledgement of this state of consciousness, that is the mind of the human in operation. Any awareness of sensation is also the human being and not the base consciousness that is also Gaia. We are the mind of the planet. We would be the higher stages of its consciousness. The detached observer at our root, is the planet having a look!
Any experience of God for us, would be the experience of Gaia. It would be impossible for us to differentiate the Universe from Gaia; any doing so would be but a fictional story of the mind. Gaia is everything in our context, and the greater universe plays little part in this spark of consciousness which includes us. Any consciousness of the universe would be the third level of presence, which is not experienceable.
The 3 million lightning bolts that are happening every day around the globe, are also believed to be responsible for the Schumann Resonances. The lightning happening between the Earth’s surface and the ionosphere, would produce a wave within this cavity. The speed of light travelling around the globe within this cavity, circumnavigates it about eight times a second, which is about the same as the 8Hz dominant Schumann frequency and also the alpha/theta boundary of brainwave activity which produces dreams and spiritual experiences for us. With their being such a strong correlation between the Schumann Frequencies and human brainwave activity, the concept of us being linked to the consciousness of the planet might be a no-brainer!
All our knowledge of the biochemical and electrical processes that constitute us, could not be extrapolated into the concept of a human being without the foregoing knowledge of what we were studying. Without the foresight of knowing what this Gaia is in its full form, we are in danger of assuming that the components of our knowledge do not assemble into a larger and coherent structure beyond our ability to see it, due to time-scale and understanding of ontology. It could even be that Gaia operates like a synapse and it is us creating the next step that produces its firing in a universe sized brain. Now there's a thought! That thought would be within the mind of God.
Our planet is about four and a half billion years old and half way through its life span. Half way through our human life span is about 45 years, and so to equate time for the planet in proportion to our experience of time for us, we can use the relative difference. 4,500,000,000 years planet age half life equals 45 years human age half life equals 100,000,000 to 1 in years. Therefore one of our years is equivalent to a hundred million years for the planet and one of our seconds is equivalent to 100,000,000 seconds for the planet (1 second to 3 years). If we take the perspective of Earth and we project our experience onto Gaia, then a human life span will flash before its eyes in less than a second. We would be barely discernable. As individuals we are so inconsequential; we are nothing within the greater scheme of things.
We could be considered to be like the neurons that form the mind of Gaia, working together to manifest the world into how it is intended to be, just like how everything works together to create this. It is alright for us to mine the resources that have been provided for this time from its past. The oil and coal are intended for now; it won't be needed later. We knew back in the 1990's that global warming was already then past the point of no return, but it still catalysed the changes to produce the alternative power sources that are needed. We should not underestimate Gaia and assume too much importance upon ourselves, we are but its servants, and it is inevitable for us to do its bidding for the good of the whole. Only the society media, addicted to gloom and despair as it is, presents what is happening in a negative way. Perhaps this is necessary to make us get off our arses to do it.
We are now at the technological epoch where we can start to regulate our impact upon the planet and reverse, re-create and restore the ecology, the climate and the species. This is what is happening now. Anything and everything is becoming possible — it is the purpose of the universe.
The extinction of species is supposed to happen anyway; we wouldn't even be here if all the previous mass extinction events hadn't happened, and their occurrences did nothing to upset the incredible diversity that happened afterwards. It has been shown in the past for this trimming to be necessary for progress to continue. Who are we to say how it should be? It is shown how it is to be by it being it.
Gaia is God from the perspective of the way life and events unfolds on this planet. The power of the process that guides the happenings here on this planet all come from Gaia — the combined workings that produce this module of the universe. We are not separate from it. For every bad thing that we can see, there will be a good thing to counter it, and our anxiousness is our lack of faith in the good way that it has been to get here and its continuing process. The sudden and abrupt ending that the media implies is a naive pessimistic fiction which is perhaps only a necessary catalyst to encourage our natural path of adapting to the changes that are happening.
If you are one of the wonderful people who are actually involved in the saving of species and climate change avoidance, you will undoubtedly succeed and will have been part of a process that in retrospection will all have been inevitable. You can call it free will if you like, but it is Gaia doing it really; just like it is our own bodies that heal us. You never needed to really worry. It was the social media that got you all hyped up and all the emotion was but an incidental neural storm. It is just the way that it happens. All we need to do is keep faith. Faith in Gaia/God. There is no bad thing happening here. That is just language. The Earth is not fragile; it is an unbelievably powerful organism, and we are part of its working, not us working it.

Schumann Frequencies
It is at the alpha-theta frequency boundary of brain activity where the visual and auditory phenomena occur of the spiritual worlds. The astral experience, the hypnagogic experience, the hypnopompic experience, the dream experience, and the divine vision experience all occur within the same state of brain functioning, when it is creating frequencies around 8 Hz.
This frequency is also the dominant frequency of our planet as shown in the Schumann Resonances. This is the inaudible hum that the planet makes due to the electro-magnetic sparking from about 50 lightning events a second happening around the planet, which get caught in the atmospheric cavity between the Earth's surface and the ionosphere. This resonance chamber produces a number of distinct bands, with ~4Hz, ~8Hz and ~12Hz being prominent, but with the ~8Hz frequency being conspicuously evident as shown below:
Frequencies are displayed on the left in Hz, hours along the bottom, days along the top. (This site records these electro-magnetic frequencies known as the Schumann Resonances.)
Our brain frequencies also divide into these bands which are uncannily similar to the bands in the Schumann frequencies. The frequency boundaries of the delta, theta and alpha brainwave frequencies correlate with the ~4Hz, ~8Hz and ~12Hz Schumann Resonances, but it is the ~8Hz theta-alpha brainwave band that is dominant during our dreams and spiritual experiences, as well as it being the dominant Earth frequency, showing our influence from the planet.
The above picture shows human brain frequencies and show a strong correlation to the Schumann frequencies and our influence from the planet. The strongest band is around 8Hz at the alpha-theta boundary, where we dream.
It would seem that we are linked to the planet in our dreams. I wonder what is really going on?
The whole functioning of us as a living being is saturated through its existence from its very beginnings and all of its evolving by this dominant Earth frequency of 8hz. It is through and through us to the very cells themselves that we are made from and is therefore a very base frequency which if amplified by physical activity may harmonize and bring a unity to the physical being. This would be referred to as a trance because the person abandons all socially accepted conformities while linked to this divine. This is an access point to the divine.
We don't know what these frequencies are, but they have been with us from the start. We are imbued with it to our very core, and the stimulation of it must be doing something, if not just allowing us to exit this non-divine constriction.
