If A Tree
Fell...
by Starbuilders
"If a tree fell in the
woods
and nobody was around to hear it,
would it make a
sound?"
If a tree fell in the woods and
someone was there to yell "TIMBER!", there is no doubt that the tree would make
a noise, and when it hit the ground, someone would be there to hear
it.
But how about the classic question
that asks, "If a tree fell in the woods and NOBODY was around to hear it, would
it make a sound?" That depends on how you want to define "sound."
If you define sound as a
compressed air wave, created in this case by the tree hitting the ground,
interacting with the components of the inner ear which is interpreted by the
brain, there is no sound being made because the ear/brain component is
missing.
On the other hand, it also depends
on how you define the "body" in "nobody". If you mean, in the broad sense of the
word, "somebody" or "something" which has the ability to NOTICE the event on
some level, then you have a different story.
Why? Because the sound would be
registered by other life forms in the forest, at the very least, other animals
with ears. We can also include the plant kingdom as it, too, responds to
external stimuli. Indeed, through our channeling experiences relating to these
types of life forms, plants seem not only to be able to consciously perceive
their environment, but they even have social tendencies.
We assume that plants would
register this tree-to-ground impact as an event of sorts. Add to this the woods
themselves because they, too, are conscious. You could take this one step
further and say if there were no other plants or animals around, the fallen tree
ITSELF would hear the fall. Assuming of course, that it was not dead or had not
lost all consciousness before it hit. However, that is another
story.
Hey, how about minerals? Do they
"rate" as conscious entities, or are they "merely inorganic?" In some of our
other-dimensional explorations we have seen that crystalline life-forms DO
communicate, albeit in radically different ways than human beings. In fact, in
their own way, they are more perfect servants to the All That Is than humanity.
They don't have free will to say no to spirit. They just say Yes and fulfill
whatever function it is for them to do.
Everything is made of
Consciousness Itself. Sometimes it just "lies low" in its expressive ability,
and when it expresses itself in forms that don't appear to consciously react to
our probing, we term it "inorganic". However, that is one life form's point of
view.
So, back to the question: "If a
tree fell in the woods and nobody was around to hear it, would it make a sound?"
Our answer is a most emphatic, "Yes!"
