of the brain to store and process information that is coming to it from the internal and
external worlds.

The evolutionary development of psi-fields is associated with the establishment of self

awareness and individuality. Such individuals obtain the ability to affect nature in a
variety of ways and develop various methods of exerting that influence. They then
reconstruct their habitat into forms more suitable for themselves, unfortunately, too
often disturbing the ecological balance in doing so. There is a maximally acceptable
limit of the capacity of an ecological system to tolerate intervention. When it is

exceeded it usually results in a violation of the system’s integrity.

Intelligence in the full meaning of the word can be identified as such only when
the evolutionary development of the species leads it to an understanding of its
unity with nature and to activity which does not result in the destruction of the
ecological system, but rather effects harmonious changes in nature without
throwing it off balance. Ultimately this causes periodic evolutionary changes in

ecological systems.

Several species of living organisms on planet Earth have complex psi-fields. All are
classified together in one subclass — the higher mammals. Two particular species,
dolphins and humans, have a special place in this subclass. Human beings (Homo
Sapiens) are the only intelligent species possessing a complex psi-field whose
evolutionary development has been and still is accompanied by the changes they

make in their ecological system. Unfortunately, rather than a state of harmonious
unity, human beings are in a “state of war” with nature, characterized by infrequent
armistices. It is to be hoped that harmony will be achieved in the near future.

The special position of man in our ecosystem is an immediate consequence of his
behavioral peculiarities. First of all, he is a social, upright creature. The availability of
a pair of “free” limbs, i.e. arms — enabled man during his evolutionary development

to create work tools, the improvement of which eventually resulted in the ability to
affect and change the environment according to human needs.

His social form of existence allowed man to solve another problem — the accumulation
and transmission to subsequent generations of needed information (first in oral and
later in written form). This knowledge, this accumulated experience, was not just the
product of a human family, or tribe, but, in keeping with the evolution of the human

race, stemmed from thousands, hundreds of thousands, in fact, millions of people over
many generations.

The amount of accumulated information grew larger and larger from generation to
generation as the qualitative content of the information kept changing. As they
absorbed the experience of prior generations, the newer generations moved to the next,

higher level of evolutionary development. When mankind invented various kinds of
mass information media — print, radio, television, the internet, etc. — an abrupt
