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.

To quench the virtual photons on an electron, the electron may be interacted with by a photon carrying in its time portion the virtual pattern (virtual photons) of a positron. 6.

Indeed the physical world can also be modeled mentally, as required by the fourth law of logic. We may define "mental phenomena" as those phenomena which eXist in only one mind. We then define "physical phenomena" as those phenomena which exist in each and every mind. (For completeness, we define "paranormal phenomena" as those phenomena which exiot 1.n more than one mind, but not in all minds.) While the number of minds is finite 1 it is very large. Thus "physical" phenomena, being repeated such a vast number of times, are very much more dense than mental phenomena 1 yet still consist totally of summed "mental phennmena. 11 Note that the present Garte.:;ian interpretation of reality a priori excludes our definition of paranormal phenomena, since it recognizes only exclusively mental or exclusively physical phenomena states. By our definition, paranormal phenomena are inclusively quasi-mental and quasi-physical, in violation of the Garte~ian assumption. 11. Thomas E.
