The Enigma of William Joseph Bray on the Quantum Zeno Effect and Near Death Experiences, etc.

I used a 7th grade mathematical axiom to exemplify that 'belief' is irrelevant. Here's one to wrap you head around. Keeping aside for a moment that Special Relativity is specific to 'things' that have mass, a photon, since it travels at the speed of light, exists in an infinitely time dilated state, or otherwise (as having no mass) a timeless domain. In either case, the time a photon leaves my light bulb until the time it strikes a rock on a planet in a galaxy 5 billion light years away, is for the photon, the same instant; to a photon all distances in the universe are zero, all travel time to all places in the universe are zero.

The photon never experiences its own existence.

Now, be the photon, and conceive of never experiencing your own existence.

Now do that for 'infinity.'

That is what the common man argues for. I exist now but cease to exist forever. If you do not exist forever, then you do not exist. In mathematics, a thing that has a lower boundary, a beginning, is not infinite, it is regarded as 'undefined.' It is not mathematically possible even to cease to exist for infinity, unless you never existed, never had a beginning.

Interestingly, from an anthropological perspective, the concept of being finite is an artifact of loosing track of time when we enter deep sleep. You exist, you simply don't remember it, so it is as though it never happened. That is the archetypical source of the fear of death. Just another myth. So that's William Joseph Bray commenting to a comment review of his book on Amazon.

This author actually contacted me at one point and offered to publish my book on Amazon as a kindle - for me, on behalf of me. I thought it was kind of a strange offer - so I didn't take him up on it.

But he did send me a copy of his book and it was a fascinating read indeed! I was very impressed with his research.

So then Skeptiko, a podcast focused on NDEs, decided to not post their interview since William Joseph Bray could not back up his claim of being a research scientist with any published materials.

 May I suggest a little known tomb by the late (last year)  William Joseph Bray entitled “Quantum Physics, Near Death Experiences, Eternal Consciousness, Religion and the Human Soul.” Bray was a physicist who had a medical condition that caused his heart to stop on an annoyingly regular basis. He had tens of NDEs and became very familiar with the landscape. Thus informed, he used his scientific background, spirituality, intuition, practice and study to build his model of life, death, healing and consciousness presenting methods to maximize each. It is one of the most insightful, practical and fascinating mixes of experience, theory, validated evidence and scientific/quantum physics insights I have had the privilege of encountering. Thanks. Gary So then the "Sacred Acoustics" business of Eben Alexander, the NDE doctor, has this post

So I didn't realize that this person had so many NDEs and then he left his body in 2014.

And of course the main complaint of his book is that the writing is atrocious - the formatting, the grammar, etc.

So his google book listing shows an earlier book

Quantum Temporal Dynamics: A Re-Write of a Century of Quantum Theory and Physical Cosmology

 And a search of that title gives a website!

 http://www.qtdscience.com/

Right - so that is also the "near death experience" website - so it is indeed the website of William Joseph Bray!

But all the links on the site are not active.

The review of that first book states:

 This is some of the most cock-eyed jabberwok I've ever seen!

It's quite funny because when I read Bray's book that he sent me - I knew he was correct as I had come to very similar conclusions as he did. So we must have communicated around 2013.

 It's quite  unfortunate that he didn't just upload his book for free onto the interwebs but instead handed it over to the Amazon monopoly.

 So here William Joseph Bray comments - again dodgedly:

I like that, my credentials are too extensive to be believable.
My peer reviewed work doesn’t turn up in a google search because it is not public domain. You need access via a search engine dedicated to peer reviewed works in scientific literature; and any proprietary or classified work will not be published.
Just check the math.
dr wjb

The problem with his claim is google scholar covers the peer reviewed scientific literature! So the Abovetopsecret posted this excerpt of one of his books (no longer available).

 William Joseph Bray, Theoretical Physicist, Neuroscience Research Chemist, now employed by the Central Intelligence Agency, sat alone in a hanger at Pomona, and I mean – ‘alone,’ with the exception of an armed guard in each corner of the hanger, about four acres of space, just one desk and a book shelf, and four armed guards. “No one under any circumstances was to enter that huge empty room but me,” says Bray, reminiscing. “I sat and wrote, by hand, all day, every day, for over a year, 2026 pages in all. They had seen my web site ‘Quantum Temporal Dynamics,’ interviewed me in a tiny shack in the middle of the Pine Barrens, and told me to sit, and start writing. It took a little over a year and 2026 pages. Only two humans on Earth knew I was there, knew the authorship of the document, and now, they are dead (of old age).”

My new mother-in-law’s boss had been working on a radical procedure for correcting ventricular tachycardia. The procedure involved stopping the patient’s heart altogether, and waiting until the EEG (brain waves) went completely flat lined, in short, killing the patient, and then resuscitating the patient. What if we took a Physicist, prepared him/her for the procedure, and practiced the procedure on a Physicist, repeatedly, until we obtained the information we were looking for…?

I was then the volunteer. At first the ‘NDEs’ were induced, and then they started to become ‘spontaneous…’ “Six months after completing the (written) work, all funding for new energy sources and new propulsion technologies was very abruptly cut, in the middle of a fiscal year, without warning, and you can check in 2006, cut off, with no explanation. Quantum Temporal Dynamics is a re-write of a century of quantum theory and physical cosmology, absolutely disproves everything down to the fine details of the Standard Model in Quantum Mechanics, and makes it all obsolete.”

“I’ve been doing this for 450,000 years now, changing the human time-line. First, we pointed primitive man’s eyes up at the stars and explained to them – ‘from the death of those stars, all things are made,’ which was brilliant. At that point, I and my ‘esteemed colleagues’ with whom I have been doing this for eons, had a focus for man to centralize into civilizations, for the purpose of building megalithic structures as a means of injection of math and technology that we taught them across the globe in a single millennia, and founded human civilizations.”

“Early in the 20th century I and ‘all of my esteemed colleagues’ gathered in a single glorious effort to found Quantum Physics, and now, I am back, alone this time, to finish the work, getting it back on course from the riff-raff and gibberish these kid scientists have pissed into it, preparing for the next step we introduce in human evolution. And no, we are not ‘aliens, we are from an infinite domain, just like you.”

“So I describe some of the physics here in detail. I also provide a solid foundation and description of existing beyond the confines of linear time, which is a construct, that infinite domain some call ‘a heaven or perhaps Heaven.’ For the purpose of changing the construct, ‘The Game’ as I sometimes call it, there have to be a very few, or at least one, who is keenly and constantly aware of existing in that infinite domain, which I describe to you in detail, and the physics, and what you would call ‘the afterlife,’ but I refer to as that place you reside at this very moment, and the infinite energy you yourself manipulate to ‘Paint the Universe into Being.’ The description of that physics altered the US programs for energy and propulsion research, which I describe here in some detail, since the only two men on Earth who knew the authorship of the original document are dead.

 From what we can tell - it appears that William Joseph Bray was self-taught.

http://www.manjitkumar.com/  is an author he recommended - from 2012 - a popular science book.

Here is Bray on Quora - claiming he really was a secret military scientist!

https://wbilly3814.wixsite.com/drbray

Bingo - (oops I mean - Boom!) he has a website still up where he says his books are free downloads!

Amazing that this site does not come up on google search!

Sure enough - it works! I just downloaded the pdf.

So despite the claims of his death in 2014 - this book says his son died in 2012 - and so sure enough we find the obit for his son online. Then we find that William Joseph Bray lives in the same city as his son - and the grandparents of the son that died - Collingswood NJ - and shows William J. Bray still alive, age 55.

Sure enough: (his post on the grandfather of his son)

He was a father to me, and will be again.

We will meet again in the Kingdom of God, but not today.

Dr. William J Bray

So why are people claiming online that he died already?

 posted on Feb, 6 2014 @ 07:56 AM

link   

William Bray is rather well known in NDE/Metaphysical circles. He passed away on January 25th of this year

No he didn't!! 

So So someone named - Diana

 Dina Grutzendler made this claim of his death.... strange.

So Dina Grutzendler authored this book on NDEs also

Could they be the same person? nope:

So William Joseph Bray posted a comment on physicsworld as "wbilly3814" and then used that same moniker elsewhere online.

His youtube channel.

His claim of receiving angry emails from scientists - written as a PR statement.

William Joseph Bray analyzes the "hum" noises

Bill Bray has been "answering" questions on Quora - as I did this blog post! 

How can a photon create a recoil in an electron when it is massless?

Bill Bray, (Retired) PhD/Scientist at U.S. Department of Defense

Answered Oct 2

First, Mr McPhysics is not reading the tables correctly. The tables are not stating that the ‘real’ photon (‘ll discuss virtual photon shortly) has mass, merely that the lower end of the determination is stated.

For instance, the first entry is <10^-18 eV measured by the MHD detector of the solar wind. This value of 10^-18 is the lower limit of the detector’s ability, not a statement that it has mass. Note that it does not state =10^-18, it states <10^18 eV.

Furthermore, there is confusion between a real photon, such as light, and a virtual photon, which carries the electromagnetic field. A virtual photon is ‘off mass shell,’ and has limited mass and a very short life. Some refer to this as the virtual photon being ‘coupled to a magnetic field.’

A virtual photon has mass, limited distance and life. A real photon does not. A real photon does not actually kick the electron, it interacts with the electron’s virtual photons, even though they are bosons, (which do not interact with one another) the transfer of energy is temporal, not mechanical.

So then Skeptiko still has it's forum critique of William Joseph Bray - despite pulling his interview!

 Hawking radiation requires that things fall into black holes, which Bray seems to think is impossible. Any standard text on general relativity will explain why he's wrong about that. In short, it's because space is *locally* flat in any given reference frame, even in strongly curved spacetime. Time does not stop at the event horizon for the object falling through it. The experience of falling through the event horizon of a black hole would be entirely uneventful for the person/object doing it, except that so-called tidal forces might be felt between the top and bottom of the object. When Hawking radiation is generated, the things falling through the event horizon are virtual photons, which are predicted by quantum electrodynamics. Bray proclaims with some confidence on the show that he 'knows what a quantum electrodynamic event is', despite describing the theory is inexact terms that sounds nothing like the way I usually hear physicists talk about QED.

And so in 2012 he made this claim regarding the "other" website using the same name!:

'Quantum Temporal Dynamics' is a complete theory, and the term and the math are copyrighted by myself, the author, William Joseph Bray, and the web site in question has been informed that they are to remove all information and references to the subject.

sincerely

wjb Author 'Quantum Temporal Dynamics'

 So here we have William Bray claiming to be a "staff scientist" at Merck Labs in chemistry - 

A search gets nothing. 

Then he claimed 
SmithKline Beecham Pharmaceutical Research

and again nothing. 

Nothing from William Bray at Princeton 30 years ago.

He appears to be totally self-taught.
