While reading a book by Christopher Penczak, I stumbled upon the Hundredth Monkey Theory.
In 1952, on and an isolated island called Koshima, scientists were studying the behavior of Japanese monkeys (Macaca fuscata). They would give them sweet potatoes dropped in the sand. The monkeys like eating the potatoes but they didn't like the sand that clung to them. A female monkey solved the problem by washing the potato. She taught her family and friends. Soon, all of the monkeys were washing off their potatoes. From 1952 to 1958 all the young monkeys learned to wash potatoes when some of the older monkeys continued to eat them dirty. That fall, the scientists noticed something very strange. Once a certain critical mass was reached on Koshima, and all the monkeys of the Macaca fuscata species on that island were washing their potatoes, monkeys on other islands, separated by water, started washing their potatoes. These monkeys were not taught this skill, but somehow knew. No information was transferred on any recordable level. The practice came into the general consciousness of the monkeys.
This lead to the belief that species are connected by some invisible field of consciousness. When a small group of a species, in comparison to the entire population, discovers a new way of life or new information, that i formation remains their individual knowledge. But when a critical mass is reached, that information is now part of the species consciousness, available to all. Read Lifetide by Lyall Watson for the story.
Personally, I believe that this is a real thing. If you look into the past yoy might notice some examples of this. One example, comes from the ancient peoples. Think about it for a minute... If you haven't figured it out yet, I'm talking about pyramids. In Egypt, the ancient Egyptian built pyramids. Then, across the ocean, the Mayans were also building pyramids. I also believe that there are a few pyramids somewhere in Japan. This theory is a little more believable, I think, than aliens building the pyramids. No offense to people who believe that. Another example might be money. In Europe, Asia, and Africa, money was used all over. Then, across the ocean, the Native Americans also had their own form of currencey. And that was before people discovered the New World.
