DICTIONARY DEFINITIONS

QUANTUM
    ● from the Latin quantus or "how much"
    ● an exceptionally small subdivision of forms of energy
    ● the minimum unit of any physical entity interaction
PHYSICS
    ● from the Latin physica or "natural science"
    ● a science dealing with the interaction of matter and energy
    ● a study of nature to understand how the universe behaves

SCIENCE AND THE PHYSICAL UNIVERSE

Many major beliefs about our universe which were "known" to be scientifically true at the time, have fallen by the wayside in light of subsequent discoveries. A few of the more blatant examples are:

The Earth is Flat - Against all that was know to be true, in 1492 Columbus proved the Earth was round, not flat.
The Earth is the Center of the Universe - Against strong "scientific" beliefs, Copernicus and Kepler tried to show the Earth and planets orbit the Sun and in 1615 Galileo gave good proof for the case (for which the Inquisition found him guilty of heresy). Finally, in 1687, Newton proved the three were correct with his laws of gravitation and motion with respect to material objects.
The Universe is Comprised Of Material Objects - In the beginning of the 20th Century, even Newtonian "scientific" materialism's bubble was burst with the advent of Quantum Physics. Discoveries by Plank, Einstein, Bohr, Heisenberg, Schrödinger, Bohn and others. Quantum physics showed that even matter does not really exist and dissolves into frequency waves of energy.

MATTER IS NOT SOLID

The latest popular delusion of man is that materialism/matter is solid and real. Quantum Mechanics has burst the bubble, matter is not solid and real, it is really energy waves appearing as matter.

A door looks like a door and feels solid when you stub your toe against it but the closer you look, the door has no matter. It looks like it is solid as you go from the wood or steel down to the molecules. It still looks sold further down to the level of the atoms making up the door. Then, via Quantum Physics, the atoms start to be much more vacuum than anything else with subatomic "particles" dissolving into energy with frequency waves.

THE EDGES OF EXPLORATION

Physicists have gone beyond the limits of the old world views into the world of Quantum Mechanics. They have made discoveries which have profound philosophical implications for our world of the here and now hidden beneath the old veil of materialism.

Quantum Reality now shows us:

Our notion of atomic matter really dissolves into waves of potential existence.
Newton's laws fall apart in the subatomic world giving us a world of spontaneity.
The objective world "out there" is not independent and does not "exist" on its own. The observer and the observed are really interdependent.
A world of local interactions within space and time is not real, we are really in a realm where all things are non-locally united in an indivisible whole.

So much for the notion the earth is flat!!

Quantum Mechanics and Consciousness

As we further develop this section, we will (in layman's terms) walk through experiments such as Schrödinger's cat, the single and double slit and the water experiments. We will also go through several of Einstein's "thought experiments" which he said were not a result of his mind thinking but came to him/through him from the ether as packets of information. Packets of information which subsequently proved true in actual testing.

All of the experiments help give us a better understanding of the Holographic Universe which surrounds us and is the result of our individual and collective imaginations, consciousness, spirits or whatever term with which you feel most comfortable.

The pages which will be added will help us better understand we are living in an illusion where we are both the perceiver and the "objects" being perceived. There is nothing in the universe except energy in the form of waves and matter does not exists even though our senses persistently tell us otherwise.
