Anytime, Whatever.
I found it very interesting, too. I read it through throughly. It really helped me see what's what. The only thing is these days, scientists are too quick to dismiss these things as "halllucinations". Don't believe them.
Best wishes,
Roxy

As Firekeeper would say, one view is that the whole of science is one massive hallucination connected to the illusory world we live in. ;-)
I can see a lot of similarities with the teachings of the Course in Miracles to be honest. There is a link to the text online if anyone 's interested. I 'm not posting it here cause I 'm not sure if it breaks copyright law or not.
Blessings,
Whatever

Illusory World? If that's so, I'm kind of enjoying it, anyway.
:-)
Blessings on your path.

Another thing that may interest you, if you haven't seen it yet, is the movie "What the Bleep Do We Know'.
Love,
Roxy

A couple of things about the movie.
1) Speakers in the movie seemed to say that the uncertainty principle means some sort of individual freedom on a macroscopic level. It doesn't, and anyone who's ever studied any quantum physics knows that it doesn't.
2) Emoto's experiments w/ water are provocative. But it turns out that he doesn't use a double-blind protocol, and his experiments leave lots of room for bias in the selection of which water crystals are "representative" of the influence of which words.

bruce,
Hi,
I tend to agree. The movie was entertaining for about 30 minutes; then became little more than pop, new-age perverted quantum whohah.
Cheers,
RC

Dear Bruce and RC,
I frankly never saw the movie, having read so much on Modern Physics independently (and hope to reread since I've gotten so rusty). I may have the wrong idea of what the movie is exactly like.
But I do think it's a good idea for all of us to find someway to contemplate the new Universe view.
Best wishes,
Roxy

Bruce,
Are the words the speakers in the movie say correct and the way it was put together & edited "misleading" or is what they say not based on current accepted theory ? ( Im not a scientist, so please speak down :)
I could not understand why they used such loud & annoying music in this movie.
peace & joy,
holobon

Hi, Holobon,
It's been over a year since I saw the movie, but I remember that at least a couple of the speakers said things that were flatly misleading about quantum theory. For some of the other speakers, it might have been the editing rather than the content of what they said, but I'm not sure.

roxy,
Hi,
Contemplate? Yes, Yes!!! Generate thought. And it is precisely the phenomenon of thought with which quantum mechanics seems unable to properly deal; let alone the movie in question in which the phenomenon of thought is never adressed. The folks in that movie are all 'followers', for lack of a better word, of the woman who claims herself some sort of channel and who apparently was the impetus for the movie; so the view presented is rather skewed to say the least.
Cheers,
RC

Dear RC,
Yes, I went to the movie website, and found it was entirely diffent than what I had imagined it. I wish there was a way to show the differences in science and mysicism overlapping without the pop stuff.
It's interesting to realize that Albert Einstein was a believer in God, as in "God does not play dice with the Universe".
Best wishes,
Roxy

roxy,
Hi,
Well, even Einstein has been shown to have been incorrect on a number of matters.
:)
Cheers,
RC
