I learned something today that changes everything for me.
Its about consciousness, and our relationship to the universe, and our world. Everything is subject to our own consciousness. And only that. Its true that if a tree falls in the woods and no one is around to hear, it doesnt make a sound. What comes from that tree is a bunch of waves. We have ears that pick up the waves and we percieve it as a sound. But who knows maybe there are life forms that percieve those same waves as a visual image? What Im saying is, until we experience it, it is only a bunch of potential. Its a loose wave form. Only when we look at something is it a solid thing of particles.
The universe needs us, in order to exist! Furthermore, we need brains to experience it. Not to mention bodies containing the five senses.
I have heard that a study showed that if you take an object, like a book, and look away from it, it expands (a very, very minute amount however), then when we look at it, it collapses back to its original shape.
Of the many ways I have been rethinking things, I think it sheds a different light on the neglect of things, and how they age.
So anyway, I have been thinking a lot about this whole particle entanglement thing. More like consciousness entanglement. For instance if you experience a quantum event, or in my own words, a spiritual experience, it affects everything in your life, or in Dr. Morses words, it affects your super-neural network. Its all happening on the inside.
Out there beyond our consciousness is just a lot of potential. Or possibilities. What happens then depends on your state of consciousness. I like to say its what you expect, but we dont always realize what we expect. What we expect is not the same as what we hope for or wish for etc. But often its what we fear (a good reason its not good for you to worry).
AH HAH! Heres a fun note to end this on! The wind just now blew our side door open. You bet we were afraid, but it was just the wind! So forget about the fear coming true thing. PLEASE!
I just love how the universe always chimes in at the right moment! Hmm another indicator of the idea that our world depends on our consciousness
OH and about the Universe being conscious? Of course! Because we are conscious. And, you see, we are all connected, like they always said.
One man's body apparently spent three days in a morgue before he returned to it.
A more religious spin later seemed to be attached to his story. Though he clearly says he identified more with atheism when it happened.
"Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven." Matthew 7:21
"God is light and in him there is no darkness at all. If we claim fellowship with him and continue to walk in darkness we lie and do not act in truth." 1 John 1:5-6
If more Christians ran with the King James text they claim, I'd say the world would be way more interesting.
...Personally I don't see logic for there to even be sickness in that world.
I can refine myself.
