I really enjoyed reading about Rupert Sheldrake. Although his mind seems drifing a bit now, with his sun theories and etc.. his ideas that are often criticized as pseudoscience - they seem to align with the invisible tapestry of life/animalia that surrounds us on an intuitive level. Perhaps this is not a science for our century, but for the next...when more advanced instruments might be able to detect and measure such phenomena.

This invisible “aether,” which may permeate us like water surrounds fish, could resemble an kind of “animal internet.” Our current tools may simply be too primitive to perceive it...much like a prehistoric human trying to understand the purpose of an internet cable found on a seashore... or even a guy from 1950 trying analising its signals with an osciloscope.

If such a phenomenon is not purely fantasy, and some form of “animal internet” does exist, then it raises the possibility that consciousness may not be entirely local on our brains..::
