Freemasonry teaches you the technique. What technique would that be? or is it classified Close yourself off mentally from the outer world (tyle your lodge) Straight spine (stand/sit as a mason is intructed) Reinforce internal energies (etheric field - IG) Calm emotions (JD) Remain alert (SD) Concentrate (point within a circle) on a symbol or word or ? (boundary lines). The Intellect & Conciousness sends the message to the Soul & Subconscious via the JD. If the etheric/life energies have not been dissipated too much on worldly pursuits, the SW/Soul/Subconscious will communicate directly to the Superconscious/Master of our lodge/our Spirit which is part of the One. As I see it, it is the JD, IG and T who prove to be unreliable, which is why the SD is kept waiting with his responses from the Collective Consciousness. But as they say, practice makes perfect. And repetition bypasses our intellect and speaks directly to the subconscious (as we all know, stopping in mid sentance sometimes and not knowing what part we are up to ) ... so that part of a masonry is an insurance policy of sorts. A bit of a helping hand to a Bro in need.... Maat

I am a firm believer in re incarnation . I believe our Lodge is filled with men who have had past experiences with each other, and have been reunited for a specific masonic purpose. It is a neat experience Also, princeton university has been studying collective consciousness with pods around the planet that can detect mass thought?, I have not looked into it in awhile.... en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Global_Consciousness_Project

Is there not a distinction to be made between the Global Consciousness Project and the concept of " COLLECTIVE Consciousness"? The former implies individual consciousness, the latter not. ...perhaps the pods placed "around the planet" for the Global Consciousness Project have been affected by the iPods placed even more so "around the planet"!
