Documents / FOIA release
This Defense Documentation Center report (ADA068988) reproduces a paper Thomas E. Bearden prepared for the 1979 MUFON Annual Symposium. It carries a public-release distribution statement. Bearden is a retired Army lieutenant colonel and nuclear engineer. The paper proposes a speculative mind and matter model built on a claimed fourth law of logic and hyperspatial frames. It argues that the collective unconscious can materialize thought forms under Cold War stress, and it fits major UFO waves and U.S. cattle mutilations since 1973 into that model.

kind1ed changes must occur in the biosystem's mindworld before the feedback crosstalk
from those mindworld changes can initiate a change in the biosystem's body in frameS.
Thus human "free Will" is severely limited, but present nonetheless. The great percentage
of changes one's body experiences are statistical kindling inputs from other mindworlds and
not under the control of the individual's own mindworld. However, occasionally he does
induce (incept) a control change into the otherwise statistical pattern. If enough "behavior
pattern" is collected, these incepted changes are sufficient to deviate the biosystem from
a purely statistical, inert behavior. Thus "living behavior" is recognizable in this fashion:
The bulk of our experience involves the normal, statistical laws of ordinary inert physics,
but a small part of our experience involves a deliberate, incepted deviation from those
laws. '!bus experience is largely like a focket' s trajectory: we cannot control the basic
momentum and velocity of the trajectory, but can only deviate slightly from that trajectory.
Indeed, inception {intent) consists of changing both the "future" and the past, as
shown in figure 10. It a\)pears also that the fact that the past can be changed, in at least
one sense, has now been established by Wheeler ,15
Layers of Unconsciousness
Actually we have shown the simplest sort of life/mind loop, that loop between the
biosystem' s primary mind world and its tuning physical bocl.y. Other longer loops also
exist, and these account for the existence of multiple layers of unconsciousness.
E.g., we may take any subset of human biosystems that have some specified similarity:
race, culture, family, nation, area, creed, etc. In this case, the multiplex of mindworlds
that corresponds to the subset also have a slightly favored, overall "crosstalk loop" between
the mindworlds of the members of the subset. Therefore each of these subsets forms a
special sort of "biosystem" of its own. These "layers of unconsciousness" are illustrated
in figure 11. At the species level, this biosystem effectively constitutes Jung's
"collective unconscious." The concept here diffets slightly from that of Jung, however,
since a very real, living sort of biosystem is involved in our model -- literally, a being
of very strange characteristics indeed.
E.g., in each of these "subset" biosystems, multiple simultaneous consciousness
exists -- whic!1 to a monocular conscious mind (perceiver/detector) appears unconscious.
I.e., to a monocular perceiver it is either monocularly conscious or unconscious {not
monocularly conscious). Since it is multiply conscious, it appears "not-monocularly-
conscious," hence unconscious to the ordinary monocular conscious.
Further, for every human member of a particular subset, an extra dimension appears
in the multiply conscious entity/biosystem that results from the subset. Just as connecting
two cerebral halves in a single biosystem gains a third dimension, another dimension is
added for each unit connected in the biosystem.
Also, the inceptive power of the biosystem increases exponentially as the number of
stages. This has been shown in a separate paper by the authorl6 to be
= {1)
where E0 /Ei = energy out divided by energy in (overall amplification factor), A0 is
the amplification factor achieved by each stage (human being), n = the number of human
stages in the subset, and Ik = the identity coefficient (fraction of crosstalk) stage t') stage
in that loop. 6. FOIA release, from the osd collection. The PDF is mirrored here; the original link is above. 41 pages are in the text index: search them above, or from the library's search.
