Paradigm Shift

Today, I had numerous conversations around the fact that many events exist beyond the relatively simple and understandable concepts of see-touch-feel or obvious cause and effect; events that fall outside of simple, linear human understanding.  I am referring to things like the “hundredth monkey” phenomenon, the mind-body connection, the efficacy of prayer or the water crystallization experiments.  I find it amusing that I used to not accept the reality of these phenomena and went to great lengths to explain them away, using simple linear logic.  Now I just accept that there are many things in the universe that I do not understand.  I realize that these events are outside of the paradigm which I have been taught to use.
