IMHO Sheldrake's morphic fields are organizing fields which result in the self-taming or organization of random fields. So they are anti-entropic or energy-forming. We see such taming in the formation of planets from swirling dust particles, in the formation of tornadoes, and in the precipitation of ice crystals as water cools. Black holes are another possible example. Priogogine has discussed this phenomenon in great detail.
This self-organization is caused by the overcoming of the kinetic energy of vibration of random dispersions of particles through cooling. In this process, kinetic energy is dissipated through the internal attractions between individual particles. The individual attracting forces could include electrical attractions and the forces of gravity. Thus chance movements are gradually overcome by the mechanism of attractions between particles to organized fields called habits or morphic fields. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.
