few marks early on), this sharp rise occurred within thirty minutes of trainer notes indicating a Hemi-Sync® exercise called Vibe Flow 15. Discussion The Vibe Flow 15 exercise warrants closer consideration, as it seems to have evoked a statistical effect beyond the small but persistent “coherence” created in the Nancy Penn Center during the GATEWAY VOYAGE. This may have something to do with the Vibe Flow 15 exercise, but it may also be due to a kind of “kindling”or build-up effect that took four days to percolate. Vibe Flow 15 is the third Hemi-Sync exercise on the morning of the fourth day. Interestingly, that morning is organized as a “silent morning” during which participants remain silent unto themselves without the usual group verbal sharing of their voyages through consciousness. Is the coherence of quantum entropy on the morning of day four associated with a kindling effect, the silent morning, the power of the Vibe Flow 15 exercise, or . . . ? There were several other preliminary findings of interest: The first event (with odds > 1,000 to 1) occurred on the morning of the first full day, roughly when the Cable Car wake-up music was playing. A second event looked like it was associated with Intro to Focus 12. A third event was associated with reconvening for the first full day afternoon session. We have already mentioned the fourth event, the Vibe Flow 15 effect on the fourth day. A fifth event, with odds of almost 5,000 to 1, was associated in some way with the notation Super Sleep on the same day as the big Vibe Flow 15 effect. Note that precise time-event correlations are not easy to establish because the data markings on the different records are not uniform. Associations are somewhat clearer when two or more records show the same events within a few minutes of the peak statistical effect. The only two events showing this level of clarity were the Vibe Flow 15 and Super Sleep. There is also evidence for a possible diurnal effect in the NPC RNG results, suggesting that while people are awake during the day and in focused consciousness during the conduct of exercises using the Hemi-Sync technology, there are intriguing deviations. When they are sleeping at night, these same deviations decline. Conclusion In quantum physics the oversimplified concept of physical matter—atoms with protons, electrons, etc., existing as tiny building blocks—has been left behind and replaced by the concept of physical matter as composed of quanta of energy with “tendencies” to exist. What we consider to be subatomic randomness is fundamental to this understanding. To quote Sir James Jeans, a prominent twentieth-century physicist, “The more we learn about the nature of the physical universe, the less it looks like a great machine and the more it looks like a great thought.” It would appear from the preliminary observations of this study that collective Hemi-Sync- focused states of consciousness experienced by GATEWAY VOYAGE program participants may coincide with periods of reduced quantum randomness, an unusual coherence in an otherwise probable realm of subatomic quanta. The program participants were not aware of the continuously running electronic randomness-monitoring devices. Perhaps the observed coherence of quantum randomness could be an inherent quality of focused human consciousness itself and focused consciousness a key to understanding that we are more than our physical bodies. As Robert A. Monroe said: “Focused consciousness contains all solutions to the questions of human existence. Greater understanding of such consciousness can be achieved only through interdisciplinary approaches and coordinated research efforts.” References 1. R. D. Nelson, D. I. Radin, R. Shoup, and P. A.

There is the possibility that the “collapse of entropy” effect in RNGs is localized. If this is true, the farther the RNG is away from the participants in the program, the smaller the observed effects may be.
