Let us go a little further with this, shall we? By definition, information is that which informs; the word itself comes from the Latin verb informare, which means to give form, or to form an idea of. At its most fundamental, information is any propagation of cause and effect within a system; information is used for communicating a message, and is therefore an act of intelligence. One of the most recognized forms of information is DNA – a molecule that carries most of the genetic instructions used in the development, functioning and reproduction of all known living organisms; all living organisms share this key component – information of unknown origin, which is a living proof of an act of Intelligence. And so you see, the existence of the human body should be enough evidence for anyone that we are the products of an Intelligent Designer and Creator, and not merely the by-product of an accident. If one really stops to contemplate this magnificent feat, it becomes undeniable that everything points to an Intelligently Designed Universe; every attempt to prove otherwise points directly to this truth. Intriguing, isn’t it?
Here we arrive at an important point: DNA as we understand it today is a fairly recent discovery; and equally so is our understanding of it. This evidently brings us to a point of realization: certainly it has not brought us any substantial understanding of our true origins or any inkling of our true nature. The reason as to why this is so may be found in our perception. This brings about the question: Is it in the realm of possibility that we are looking at this wholeness through such a narrow perspective that we are only seeing a fraction of the whole? In other words, it seems as though we can’t see the forest for the trees.
We still know far too little about DNA and genetics to say anything substantial about what Life is and is not, how it came to be, and what role do we play in this great existence we call life; this is a much larger topic that will be covered later in this book. What we can say for certain is that since the discovery of the DNA double helix, a lot has happened, most notably in the area known as epigenetics*1 – yet, we are stuck in old ways of thinking and seeing. As a result, our ability to comprehend is also limited by the confines of the old paradigm*2. And so you see, at the moment we find ourselves in between conscious of the limitations of the old and needing a new paradigm which transcends not only our ways of thinking and seeing, but also our ways of living and being, doing and acting.

*1 Epigenetics is the study of phenotype changes that do not involve alterations in the DNA sequence. Epigenetics most often denotes changes in a chromosome that affect gene activity and expression. The term also refers to the changes themselves: functionally relevant changes to the genome that do not involve a change in the nucleotide sequence. Examples of mechanisms that produce such changes are DNA methylation and histone modification, each of which alters how genes are expressed without altering the underlying DNA sequence.
*2 A paradigm is the collection of ideas and assumptions that pass from one generation to the next and which seem to be immutable. The paradigm shift, then, is when the paradigm shifts. In this process, everything that no longer serves its purpose – begins to fade away, to be replaced with something else; and with it goes all the old, outdated and outmoded structures that are limiting us. This in turn gives way to a new understanding, a new way of seeing, a new way of living, being, and doing. Paradigm shifts are necessary for growth and transformation. This area is explored more in detail in the section titled INFINITE, in a chapter Metaphysical Paradigm Shift.

By virtue of the aforementioned with regard to genetics, many fail to understand that DNA in its deepest essence is not merely some arbitrary representation of the molecules in our body, neither is it merely some static set of genetic instructions used in the growth, development, functioning and reproduction of living organisms, nor is it some predetermined destiny – it is way more than that. Indeed, the observable part of the DNA double helix is merely the surface level of the multilayered structure that goes beyond our current level of understanding. Again, this goes back to the way we see things: we humans are so insistent on the assumption that life is nothing more than self-organizing chemistry that we fail to consider other approaches.
If we shift our thinking to include such notions as energy, frequency, and vibration – it opens up a whole new level to our understanding; combined with the ideas of consciousness, awareness, and presence – we can achieve a perspective from which we can see that our DNA is alive – full of Living Intelligence that interacts with fields of information. From this perspective, we can also see that our DNA acts like a tuning crystal in a radio that focuses various frequencies and vibrations into the form we see as our bodies – our DNA is sending and receiving information all the time, whether we are aware of it or not.
It is against this backdrop that we can more easily understand the process through which this book came into being – that of Holofractographic Intelligent Emergence. As information is all around us, we can tune into these frequencies. You see, our DNA acts like an antenna that is able to receive different frequencies and information coded in these fields. In epigenetic level, there are natural mechanisms that can change how different genes express themselves – with these epigenetic changes we can tap into an infinite combinations of gene expressions, and thus into an infinite combinations of frequencies. This can be better understood with a simple analogy of a radio: all the channels (frequencies) exist at the same time, but we can only listen to one channel (frequency) at a time. It is a life-long process to learn how to change these channels, but it is indeed possible for everyone if they so choose.
