Important. Even if we aren't sure what it means. It surely has significance.
So. We're failing to make the kind of diagrams you seek?

Sheldrake's Morphogenic Field

You put two cultures or plants or animals in hermetically sealed glass enclosures near one another but separated, with no possibility of anything physical passing between them. Traits of one are adopted by the other, even though they are physically separated. It has to be some kind of energy transfer.
My explanation: Basically every atom and molecule has an electromagnetic resonance. So when energy at a specific frequency is beamed at it, the atom/molecule can absorb or emit a photon, and change its energy level.
If this is done precisely enough and at the right signal strength, it should be possible to modify the chemistry, break chemical bonds, cause specific biochemistry to occur.
Electromagnetic treatment of disease?
A bit far-fetched for some, no doubt.
I read the Sheldrake stuff a long time ago and there may be more details, if you can find a good paper on it. The experiment was repeatable as I recall, and also some Russian scientist did a lot of work in that area. The Russians (during the Soviet Union) called the field energetics and it's not so clear that it involved REGULAR electromagnetic energy (transversely polarized as described in the modified Maxwell equations) but it may have been longitudinally-polarized EM energy, in other words with the photons vibrating toward the target and away from the target along the vector of travel.
Is this the energy of life and can it be manipulated?
