Mirror neurons are motor neurons in the brain that serve to allow us to imitate
or repeat
the external actions of others. Monkey see, monkey do.

Hi Everythingsters,
When things get a little fringe, I want the best bang for my buck (time
reading/listening in this case). Here Sheldrake only delivers when held in
check by McKenna and Abraham, even if not stunning.

Hi Platonist Guitar Cowboy
You've obviously never watched one of Sheldrake's
lectures. All of his speculations are supported with
empirical data. You'll find some of it on his website,
others in his books and lectures.

I think that there is no literal field. Self-organization requires only a
capacity to experience and effect change. When a car breaks down, there is
no field of organization which is going to appear and fix it - the car is
fixed by the sensory-motor capacities of the car's owner and nothing
