The Rabbit Hole Goes Deep - Ed Hurst - 05-11-2018
We've discussed the Heart Math Institute (HMI) in the past. Iain said it had the same feel as Scientology, and I agree. It turns out this thing branches out in directions we would never expect. There was a hoax born in 1997 or so that I never caught wind of called WingMakers. The guy behind the WingMakers hoax (Mark Hempel) is on the advisory board of HMI. Further, there are reports other folks involved in HMI had actually promoted this WingMakers hoax.
I couldn't bear to read the crap on the WingMakers site, and I won't link to it. Their basic document is a fictitious series of interviews between some Dr. Neruda and Anne Anderson, neither of whom is properly identified. However, the former is supposed to be a member of ACIO, a branch of NSA. That oddball branch is revealed in the interview as a benign group using alien technology, centered on time travel. The story drones about this group and the aliens and the theory behind their time travel technology. In the midst of it, there is a strong endorsement of Doc Childre and HMI.
The whole thing was debunked by people with time to waste. For example, there's Jeff Rense's site, itself a quagmire of mindless conspiracy stuff running the full gamut, but also offering a few tidbits of good sense, just by accident now and then. There's a rather difficult to read post because it's hard to tell who is saying what, but it's pretty plain to see that the webmaster of the WingMakers site, Mark Hempel, is the author of this wild work of fiction meant to be the foundation for a movie, TV series, or maybe just a marketing tool for some low grade music Hempel composed. Either way, Hempel confesses it's just fiction.
There's another critique claiming that the site had been hijacked and changed by someone else a few years after the initial appearance. This critique indicates significant changes in the content of the site, probably in an attempt to make it more salable.
But it was this discussion on Yahoo that caught my attention, linking it to HMI and something called Global Coherence Initiative. Now this thing is part of the HMI website, so you can look that up yourself. However, they have a paper you can download from National Institutes of Health. Just take a look at the summary; you'll get a dose of buzzwords mixed with some probable thin science. But if you read between the lines, it's all about trying to hook folks into a cult for global dominance. This is the same folks who at times have given support to the WingMakers crap.
Why does it matter? We could easily be tarred with the same brush as these folks.

The mind boggles. But a warning is a warning. Best to keep an eye out, although I'd like to think--I guess somewhat paradoxically--we have more sense than the globalist nerds.

The bigger problem is that their talk of connected-ness sounds a lot like ours. There's not that many ways to discuss something like that, and HMI with their GCI have hijacked some of the science we use and made it point to something way, way off in space. So I think it would pay to be aware of their multiple weird branches and be sure to distance ourselves from it as much as possible. Saying that they have hijacked the truth is not a bad approach.

I know there are genuine medical studies out there that show the heart has properties that exceed it's purpose as a pump, I read them. We, of all people, do not seek the affirmation of Science* to "prove" our faith in the way that western Christianity desperately strives for. A definitive statement on our position, easily accessible for visitors may be in order, we don't need to be clumped with these fools.
* Meaning Science as religion.
