Ayşe and Arther spoke to the stones… they had been minding their own business, existing quite happily beneath the earth in their own private paradigm of existence, comfortable in situ as generation after generation of humans went about life above.

Quantum physics suggests the observer affects the outcome. Unobserved, the Göbeklitepe family existed in their own animated reality. As soon as humans unveiled their peaceful privacy, things changed and their existence had to return to one of apparent dormancy; back to a perceived state of lifelessness: unto dust shalt thou return.

One day they detected the curiosity of humans and the disturbance of their peace and quiet. The humans discovered and uncovered them. Once the supporting earth had been removed the T’s had to be propped up by wooden and metal frames and bracing. While Ayşe, Arther and the T family shared the same frequency of awareness, there were no frames or braces nor human observation to break the magic spell.

The concept of consciousness and defining or quantifying it in words is apparently not easy. As a Dr. Prof. Chris Clarke once put it, “We’re trying to apply calculations to something that cannot be encompassed by calculation.”
