Gnosis, or intuitive subtle-psi intelligence, Heart-wisdom if you will...does have a symbolic language which must then be interpreted (unpacked) rationally.
A transcendental vision say, one could "unpack" rationally for an entire lifetime.
The Gnostic insight comes through as formless emotional passion,“ecstasyâ€Â, then this is shunted through the mental filtering system as we reinterpret the information within the current developmental level of our intellectual capacities and associations at the time.
First vital-physical revelation (emotional causal) Delta
Then translation into archetype, myth, symbol, story, words, voices, visions, dreams Theta
Then rational explanation and analysis of the data Beta
Full circle of "emotional digestion" of the material as it becomes assimilated and turned into action and behavior. Alpha or Flow
This is the same sequence as my kundalini awakening progression of the development of the psyche-body over the course of the awakening period...so there is probably validity to the idea that it occurs during each event of gnostic illumination, as well as over the longer periodacy of an entire kundalini awakening of up to 7 years, or a lifetime.
What I think Ken Wilber doesn't quite get (set me straight) is that the first impulse is vitalism or emotion and therefore this must be the causal level. Michael Brown also refers to the emotional as being "causal." It might just be a language barrier, but this point does need to be clarified.
Gamma appears to be the "holographic" integrating wave which allows the coil-essence of Gnosis, but associated with this is the lowest frequency Epsilon. I think the low frequencies contains/allows the most amount of information (check Walter Russell and Tom Bearden). Thus we have the integrating frequency Gamma combined with the "wholistic-cosmic" information data wave Epsilon.
I think this might have something to do with the stillness of Epsilon allowing the greatest degree of coherency of light/consciousness to occur...which can then be best conveyed to the intellectual processing areas of the brain as the information is stepped up through Theta into Beta. We have tended to think that Theta was the hypnogogic wave of creative insight...but really it is simply the valve between the deeper Epsilon state and the conscious-reception state of Beta.
If we all get Jeffery Thompson's two CDs Epsilon and Gamma we should collectively be able to raise our vibration to manifest what Aurobindo called the "Supermind." http://www.neuroacoustic.com/meditation.html
GAMMA
Gamma is the Ecstatic State of Consciousness which includes extraordinary states of consciousness associated with "Shamanic" and "Mystical" experiences. During moments when bursts of precognition or high-level information processing occur, your brainwaves reach the Gamma state. The Gamma brain wave state corresponds to frequencies between 40 – 100 Hz. When Gamma brainwaves are strong the entire cortex is activated, "binding" information from all the senses together for a higher-level awareness of unity of the objects of our perception. It is a brainwave that holographically integrates the brain and helps it to work as a whole. Gamma is associated with higher mental activity, including perception and consciousness. - since Gamma activity disappears with general anesthesia. The babies brain has strong Gamma activity as their brain has not yet been segregated into distinct parts. Their sense of self is simple, whole and integrated.
EPSILON
Brainwave frequency patterns below the lowest Delta rhythms of 0.5 Hz are as slow as one quarter cycle per second, one frequency per 10 seconds, per one minute, or even longer. This wavelength is associated with extraordinary states of consciousness such as very high states of meditation, ecstatic states of consciousness, revelatory states, spiritual insight (gnosis) and out-of-body experiences. Some of the higher Yogic states of suspended animation associated with deepest Delta brain states actually continue deeper into these below-Delta brainwave states, which Dr. Jeffrey Thompson named the Epsilon State, Epsilon, since it is the next Greek letter of the alphabet after Delta. Dr. Thompson surmised that these extremely slow Epsilon brainwave patterns might have extremely fast HyperGamma/Lambda brainwave patterns modulating within them - just as the HyperGamma/Lambda brainwave patterns seem to "ride" on the super slow Epsilon modulation.
