The Concept of Morphic Resonance and Memory

The concept of morphic resonance suggests that there is a collective memory in nature, where each species draws from and contributes to. This theory proposes that our normal memories are not stored in our brains but resonate with our past selves based on similarity. The term 'morphic' refers to form or shape, and 'resonance' pertains to similar patterns of vibration or activity. This hypothesis, put forward in 1981, makes testable predictions, some of which have already been tested, such as the learning of new tricks by rats in different locations.
