Re: Using The Vacuum Principle

Larry quoting me:

To see or hear a vacuum at work just open a can or bottle of soda. You'll instantly hear a rush of air going into the container.

Larry writes:

No, that is not what happens. Carbonated beverages (soda) are produced by injecting carbon dioxide into the drink at a pressure of several atmospheres. When you open a soda what you hear is the rush of carbon dioxide out of the bottle because it is at a higher pressure than the surrounding atmosphere.

Thanks for the correction, but this does not alter the principle taught. Let us change the analogy to canned fruit. It is definitely sealed with a partial vacuum and when you pry the lid off you can hear the air rushing in.

Larry:

I don't think that this so-called principle is any more accurate than your soda can analogy.

I know through personal experience that it works. If something works it works. You can't have better proof than that.

If the principle works with a can of fruit then it will work in other corresponding situations as well. The Law of Correspondences is pretty universal in its application.

Larry:

What I think happens is that one puts a lot of data and previously known principles in their mind and consciously tries to make connections. After a while of not making much obvious progress with that they take a rest and put their consciousness on something else. But in the background the unconscious mind, that which is below our conscious awareness, is still mulling and sifting and working with this problem and perhaps down the road a ways after giving our conscious mind a break, the unconscious makes a real connection that our conscious mind picks up on, and "voila!," we have an answer that seems to pop out of nowhere. Perhaps the unconscious mind even has the ability to tap into something higher, and perhaps this is what we call 'intuition.'

What you are describing is the vacuum principle that I have enunciated so you must think I am more accurate than the soda pop analogy.

Just as in the bottle of fruit the vacuum is not everywhere but in the space below the lid. Above the lid is lots of air waiting to fill the vacuum.

Even so when we relax our data input and create a vacuum with the concrete mind, the higher mind, the subconscious, the intuition is not in a vacuum and is there to fill the vacuum.
