Science as a discipline indeed seeks to understand the unknown, yet it does so in a manner that gradually accepts a theory only after competing ones have been disproved. It thus takes a courageous mind to suggest new ideas that might threaten the stability of the very foundation upon which we all stand.
Science further has a peer review system of publishing to test new ideas against accepted paradigms to insure their rigor. Yet there is always the corresponding risk of overlooking a fundamental truth if we cease questioning that foundation. Simply said, if we accept only what can be validated by anyone anywhere, it will be the lowest common denominator of a shared reality. By accepting such limited thinking, we may miss the clues to a breakthrough that is staring us in the face.
Such breakthroughs are often found at the boundaries of accepted theory and doctrine. Acupuncture and well water dowsing cannot be scientifically explained and were initially dismissed until they were found to work. What could not be proven was demonstrated by those who had developed an ability that lies dormant within all of us. The essential quality to maintain is a discerning mind. Never immediately accept or reject anything, but challenge everything until presented with corroboration.
Science has been very successful at elucidating the mysteries of nature, but there may be realities beyond the reach of the third dimensional tools scientists employ. Many ancient mysteries imply abilities they once knew and we have since forgotten. The human body may indeed be a multidimensional antenna that reveals what is known at a deeper level. The Pharaohs used tools such as the dowsing rod and pendulum to reveal knowledge that was available to all who developed these skills. We are still evolving a lexicon for these phenomena, so the words “energy,” “quantum” and “vortex” may be used in non-standard ways by different observers.
Ancient sites were usually located at points of some sort of energetic concentration or vortex. Many pagan and later religious sites in England were co-located with these energy sites. Independent dowsers sense the same points even when they do not know what to expect. Reproducible results are scientifically interesting even if they are yet to be understood or explained.
Such ley lines around the world constitute energy grids that have been variously described by many indigenous peoples. Becoming independent of established scientific institutions has enabled Paul to explore such anomalies while adhering to the principles upon which his training is grounded. He retired to pursue an inner calling to explore clues that may yet reveal a wider understanding. The 18 journeys on the right resulted from following that knowing without justifying it in advance.
