The other was dark, but safe. The rat tried the bright exit. It got shocked. It tried again, it got shocked. Again, and again. It took 165 painful tries, but it finally learned to take the dark path. 15 years later and 30 generations later, the rats needed just 2. They were getting smarter. The solution was passed genetically. That's not supposed to happen. A scientist in Scotland tried the same experiment with a completely different set of rats. His rats started at 25 tries, as if they already knew the answer. to the puzzle. Knowledge had crossed the ocean, and no one could explain how.

Lamarckism or Lamarckan inheritance is the idea that an organism can pass on skills it acquired during its lifetime. like a rat learning to avoid electric shocks, or a human learning how to throw football. The theory is named for zoologist Jean-Baptiste Lamarck, who proposed it in 1809, and the theory is supposed to be wrong. Standard biology says that knowledge can't be inherited. Only traits can. eye color, intelligence, allergies. but not knowledge, not information. Harvard psychologist William McDougall tested this theory in 1920. The setup was simple. Rats and a water maze. He used Wister Rats, common labs because they're genetically identical. Perfect for this experiment. The maze had two ways out. One was brightly lit and easy to find. The other exit was dark. The bright exit delivered an electric shock, the dark exit was safe. And McDougall added a twist. The bright exit moved. Sometimes it was to the left, sometimes to the right, so the rats couldn't memorize a direction. They had to learn one rule. Avoid the light. Soviet children. Go into the light. There is peace and serenity. In a light. Rats should naturally avoid the dark and swim toward the way out that they can see. Any animal would. You would. That's exactly what happened. McDougall's rats swam toward the bright exit, got shocked, swam back, and tried again, and got shocked again. sometimes over 300 times. On average, the first generation took 165 tries before they learned dark equals safe. Light equals pain. Then McDougall bred the rats and tested their offspring. But he selected parents at random. He wasn't cherry picking for intelligence. He just scrapped any two rats and put their offspring in the maze to see how they behaved. According to Standard Biology, the new generation should start from scratch. They should average 165 tries. That's not what happened. Generation 2 did better. 141 tries on average. Generation 3, 118. By Generation 8, rats were averaging 56 tries. That's when McDougall noticed something strange. The improvement wasn't slowing down, it was accelerating. Eight more generations. The average dropped down to 41. 8 more down to 29. By generation 30, rats were solving the maze with just 20 tries. What took their ancestors 165 attempts, they mastered in 20. They were eight times faster at learning the same task. McDougall tried to break the pattern. He split his colony and started breeding specifically for slow learners, taking the worst performers from each generation and mating them together. These rats should have stay slow or gotten worse. They got faster too. Same rate of improvement as the randomly bred line. The slowest learners were producing offspring that learned faster than their parents, generation after generation. McDougall published his results carefully. No wild claims, no revolutionary declarations. Just the data. Thirty generations, thousands of rats, every trial documented. He mentioned in his private notes that it looked like Lamarque might have been right. Skills could be inherited, but genetics don't work that way. Except here it was, happening in his lab. The rats were inheriting something. Not genes, not training. They were inheriting the ability to solve a puzzle their parents had learned through pain and repetition. Whatever was happening, it wasn't genetics. Because not only were skills being transmitted across generations, they were being transmitted across the entire species. All over the world.

He thought was sloppy, so in 1923 he set up his own experiment to prove it. He set up the same water maze, same whistle rats, just different genes. But he also added a control group, something McDougall didn't do. He had a trained line of rats and an untrained line. No yeah, we got a new Trowdown. In one corner wearing a tweet jacket and horn green glasses is the shrink William McDougall. Aka the social psycho, aka Freud Rage. And in the other corner, also wear the tweet jacket and Horbin glasses. He's the geneticist FAE Crew, aka the phenotype foo, aka Jeans Wild. Welcome to the Free in the DNA. Let's get ready to run by! Crew expected his trained rats to master the maze in about 20 tries. And they did. But the untrained rats should have averaged 165 tries. They averaged. Thirty generations, that's what it took McDougall's rats to crack the maze. These rats had no genetic connection to any of those. and they just needed 25 tries on day one. W.E. Agar, a scientist at the University of Melbourne, ran a similar study for 20 years. Same result. Trained and untrained. Related and unrelated. Different labs, different countries. It didn't matter. The knowledge was spreading through the entire species. But it wasn't just rats. For years, milk was left on people's doorsteps. Glass bottles with foil caps. And I can't believe I'm old enough to remember this, but I am. In 1920, in Southampton, England, the blue Tip birds learned something useful about milk. Hang on, hang on, hang on. Oh crap. Did you just say a blue tip? Yes. Sometimes they're call blue caps, but technically they're gonna be able to stop saying. Hey, hey, hey, we're gonna be talking about blue tits and no for a while. We are. Oh, baby, it's Christmas morning, and Sandy's been good to day. Here's what the birds Here's what they learned about milk. Pierce the foil cap, drink the cream. This behavior spread all over Britain. By the 1940s, they were all doing it. Every Go ahead. Every blue tit was doing it. Oh hey, hey, hey the happy stories about blue bazoombas, a turquoise tappas. No. Uh a couple cans, periwinkle peaks, uh midnight melons. No. Uh den and dunklins, a sapphire sandbags. That's enough. I can't be I can't I can't human human You could argue that the birds were watching each other and learning this trick. But then came World War II. All aluminum was needed for aircraft, so no more foil caps. They used wood or cheaper harder metal. Blue tits couldn't get through. They only live a couple of years, so by the time the war was over, every bird that had ever pierced a cap was dead. The entire generation that knew the trick, they were gone. But when the foil caps came back, blue tips were piercing them again. Birds that had never seen the trick. across all of Britain, all at the same time. This wasn't genetics, memory, or observation. This was a skill somehow encoded into the species itself. But this can happen to non-living things too. Specifically crystals. When chemists synthesize a new compound, getting it to crystallize for the first time can take months or years. Different temperatures, different solvents, different pressures, the molecules just won't organize. They won't form a pattern until one day they do. And then something strange happens. A compound that resisted crystallization for decades suddenly crystallizes everywhere. on Earth. Glycerol was a liquid for centuries, no one could crystallize it. Then in 167, a barrel crystallized during shipment to Vienna. After that, glycerol crystallized easily, everywhere. Xylitol, same story. Decades of failure, then one success, then success everywhere. Rats, birds, crystals. They were passing behaviors to each other all over the world. Something had to be carrying this information. Something we couldn't see. Something we didn't understand. But in 1981, a young scientist from Cambridge found a pattern. Not only could species pass information anywhere around the world, they could pass information anywhere through time.

It was doing something that shouldn't be possible, according to everything he knew about biochemistry. The guy was called Rupert Sheldrake. Yes, why? That's the kind of name that's gonna cost you a fortune in lunch money. Yeah. I don't think there was a lot of bullying going on at Cambridge. Now wake up Cuban! Wedggies are universal. I bet even Stephen Hawking had to eat his own tidy whaties from time to time. Daddy shadow nose things all day! Anyway, bean plants are like vines. They can't stand on their own. They need a structure to grow around. A wall, a fence, a tree. He was growing plants using pots and small wooden poles for support. Same method every time. The plant sprouts, grows toward the pole, and starts climbing. But this particular bean plant was doing something very strange. It was growing toward a pole. that wasn't there yet. It was growing to where the pole would be in the future. Now Sheltrake was a serious scientist. Cambridge Fellowship, Harvard, PhD in biochemistry, director of studies at age 31. His research on plant hormones is still in textbooks today. But this bean plant was bothering him. Plants don't have eyes, they don't have nervous systems. The support pole wouldn't be installed for another two days, yet the beam was already changing its growth pattern, already preparing to climb something that didn't exist yet. He'd seen this before. thousands of times. Every biologist had. They just didn't talk about it. DNA doesn't actually contain the bluprint for what an organism becomes. An acorn has the same DNA in every cell, but those cells grow into roots or leaves, branches, They organize themselves into a tree, and nobody can really explain how they know to do that. Think of DNA like Lego Bricks. A Star Wars set and a castle set use exactly the same pieces. The only difference is the final shape. A fruit fly, a banana, even a human being share most of the same DNA, but they develop into completely different organisms. The final shape isn't in the DNA. Something else is guiding the process. One night, walking home along the River Cam, Sheldrake had a moment of clarity. Maybe nature has a memory. When any system organizes itself, a crystal forming, a plant growing, an animal learning, it creates what Sheldric would call a morphic field, a memory in nature. A similar system can resonate with that field and access that memory, meaning a bird learning to pierce the foil, crystals learning to form. And the more that memory is accessed, the stronger it gets. And it influencing that comes after, across space and time. no physical connection required, because that memory is now part of nature. All of nature. Everywhere. Forever. In 174, Sheldrake moved to India to work at an agricultural institute. That was his day job. He spent his nights at a monastery, and for 18 months, between pray and meditation, he wrote a book proposing that the universe has memory. He called it A New Science of Life. He published it in 1981. The most important science journal in the world responded by calling for his book to be burned. The theory of morphic resonance cost Sheltrake his career, and a few years later, it almost cost him his life. Look, I'm gonna be honest with you.

September 1981, John Maddox, editor of Nature, then the most prestigious science journal in the world, wrote an editorial about Shell Drake's book. He called it the best candidate for burning there's been for many years. Nature publishes Nobel laureates. Einstein, Watson <unk> Crick, Darwin. Calling for book burning was unprecedented in modern history of the journal. Maddox compared the book to Hitler's Mein Kampf and its potential for damage. He wasn't calling Sheldrake wrong, he was calling him dangerous. Maddox even said, Sheldrake's not a real scientific theorist. It's not even a theory. It's an exercise in pseudoscience. You see, Sheldwick's is not a scientific. Sheldwick uh is putting forward magic instead of science. And um that can be condemned, but in exactly the language that the Pope's used to condemn Galileo. And um uh for the same reasons. It is heresy. Professors curious about Morphic Resonance went silent. Graduate students were warned away. Research funding dried up. But the more the establishment attacked Sheldrake, the more people read his work. The book burning editorial made Sheldrake's book a bestseller. He became the most talked about biologist in Britain overnight. Not for science, but for the attempt to suppress it. But the worst attack on Sheldrake was an intellectual. April 2nd, 2008, he was giving a lecture in Santa Fe. A man in the audience rushed the stage with a knife. He stabbed Sheldrake in the leg, then security tackled him. The attacker told police and a reporter afterward that Shell Drake was using him as a subject in telepathic mind control experiments for five years. The wound was serious, but Sheldrake recovered, and days later, still using a walker, he gave a talk titled, Science and Hope. In March 2013, Sheldrake gave a 10x talk called The Science Delusion. He challenged what he called the 10 dogmas of modern science. that nature is mechanical, that matter is unconscious, and that mind is nothing but brain activity. That kind of stuff. Well Ted removed the talk from their YouTube channel. Bloggers campaigned against it. Ted consulted what they called a science board. but they never told us who was on it. The talk was about scientific dogmatism. The response was dogmatic censorship. But the attempts to silence Shell Drake kept backfiring. The band TED Talk got millions of views on other channels. The stabbing made international news. Every attack made more people ask, what are they so afraid of? Then a British TV broadcaster had an idea. They would test Morphic Resonance on the largest scale ever attempted. So now there were two million people about to test this fury on live TV. In 1984, British television ran an experiment. They showed viewers a puzzle. One of those hidden pictures where you stare at random dots until an image appears. About two million people watched. Then researchers tested people who hadn't seen the broadcast. Some were in different cities, some were in different countries. They solved that specific puzzle faster than a control group tested before the broadcast. And not a little faster, much faster. Those two million people who watched the show gave nature a new memory, a solution to that puzzle. Sheldrake said this could apply to crossword puzzles. He said crosswords should get easier to solve as the day goes on. As more and more people solve the puzzle, they're creating and reinforcing Memory. That new memory makes the puzzle easier for everyone trying the puzzle for the first time. Oh, maybe that's why I'm so naturally great with women, huh? I don't even know. Gross. Thanks. Thanks. Great interjection. Some newspapers teste the puzzle theory. The London Evening Standard found their puzzles were solved 20% faster in the evening after thousands of people spent the day solving them. Then there's the flint effect. Since the 1920s, IQ scores have risen worldwide by about three points per decade. Every generation scores higher than the last on the exact same tests. Experts credit better nutrition, better education, better test taking skills. But the gains show up even in pattern recognition tests that don't rely on education at all. Morphic Resonance says, as more humans master cognitive tasks, those tasks become easier for everyone. Sheldrake's most famous research involves dogs. He documente over 200 cases of dogs that go to the door or window when their owners decide to come home. Not when they come home, when they decide to. Owners came home at random times, in unfamiliar vehicles. The dogs still knew. One dog, a terrier named JT, was teste over a hundred times. Within 10 seconds of his owner leaving work, JT went to the window 85% of the time. The owner was four miles away. Then there's the sense of being stared at. Sheldrake ran 25,000 trials. Subjects guessed whether someone was looking at them from behind. They guessed right 55% of the time. Should be 50%. Now 5% might not seem like much. but with that huge sample size, it's significant. We've all had that feeling where we know someone's looking at us. The book Lifetide released in 1979 is about monkeys on Kushima Island. One learned to wash sweet potatoes in the ocean. Other monkeys copied her. Once 100 monkeys learned the trick, monkeys on other islands started washing potatoes too. Just like McDougall's rats, knowledge had jumped across the ocean. We've got rats and monkeys teaching each other on different islands, dogs and plants that can predict the future, people solving puzzles faster as the day goes on. Just like blue tits and no. Okay. I don't know what you're talking about, I never heard of that movie. Fair enough. I love the concept of morphic resonance, but is it true? Well let's start with the bad news. That famous monkey story that's completely made up. Why Watson took real observations from primatologists and added a little fiction for fun. The crystal formations have a conventional explanation too. When scientists first synthesize a new compound, it resists crystallization. After one lab succeeds, others find it easier. Sheldrake says it's morphic fields. Chemists say it's seed crystals. Microscopic traces on clothing, in beards, on shared equipment that ship between labs. And once the crystals exist anywhere, they exist everywhere. No mysterious required. That one is a stretch for me, but that's the official scientific view. Now the crossword puzzles and TV experiments are interesting, but the effects are small, and the methods are contested. So they can go either way. It's not the smoking gun that Shell Drake needs. But then there are the rats. McDougall's data is real. Crew replicated it. Agar replicated it on a separate continent. Rats got smarter across generations, with no physical contact. Now critics explain it like this. Early generations of rats were stressed by inexperienced researchers who didn't handle them properly. So as the researchers got better at handling them, the rats did better on the test. Now I think the skeptics lose that one. Especially when we consider something discovered decades after McDougal died. Epigenetics. This shows acquired traits can chemically tag DNA and pass information to offspring. So the effect might be real. The cause we still don't know. The dogs anticipating their owners coming home is Sheldrake's strongest published work. Critics have found methodological problems, but defenders have replicated the results. That one is still being debated, and every dog owner has thoughts. Now here's the core problem that skeptics use. Morphic resonance requires information transfer with no energy cost. And that violates the law of conservation of energy. Physics has rules. But not all physics. Not quantum physics. Two particles separated by any distance. A room, a galaxy, it doesn't matter. They respond to each other instantly. This was confirmed in the 1980s. That's an instant transfer of information that ignores the law of conservation of energy and ignores the speed of light. And nobody knows how this works. In the 1930s, Carl Jung proposed a collective unconscious, a shared reservoir of human experience running beneath individual awareness. Physicist David Baum said All points in space are fundamentally connected. Erwin Schrödinger, one of the architects of quantum mechanics and famous for the cat, argued that individual consciousness is just an illusion. that there's only one mind. Max Planck, Nikola Tesla, Albert Einstein all arrived at the same place from completely different directions. Some through mathematics, some through watching rats learn mazes, some through quantum theory itself. All of them looked at the universe and landed on the same word. Connected. Maybe the laws of nature are fixed, written into the fabric of reality before the first star formed. Or maybe the universe creates memories that strengthen through repetition, always evolving. We can't prove it either way. But there is one scientific fact that nobody can deny. A long time ago, every atom in your body was connected to every other atom in every other person on Earth. Every atom in your body was connected to every atom in every animal, every plant, every rock, and every planet in the universe. And if the smallest things in existence stay connected to each other across any distance, then acting like the people around you are separate from you isn't just unkind. It's unscientific.
