The world view presented by so-called mainstream sources has left many people dissatisfied, and with good reason.
Most religions teach that we live in a universe presided over by a loving, peaceful and all-powerful God, but fail to explain why immense human suffering can be seen or experienced in life, particularly in natural disasters such as a tsunami or earthquake.
Classical science, with its mechanical view of the universe, has failed to explain phenomena such as telepathy, remote viewing or out of body experiences, to name just a few. These phenomena are far too well documented to be dismissed, so they must be incorporated into a plausible world view.
New age belief systems borrow from the eastern philosophies and talk about the wholeness of reality or that everything is one, but then continue to philosophize about the nature of reality in the dualistic terms of spiritual and physical. These belief systems are further confused by the consideration of 4 separate states, namely; mind, body, emotions and spirit
A number of eminent physics professors have stated quite clearly that matter, energy and consciousness are the same thing, which would indicate that there cannot be these normally accepted 4 separate states of mind, body, emotions and spirit.
Although the progress of quantum physics has brought science closer towards what the ancient eastern philosophies have not been alluding to for thousands of years, quantum physics nor eastern philosophy explains those ideas in words and concepts that are of practical use in everyday life.
It may therefore seem impossible to find a way through the world’s minefield of beliefs and dogmas without wasting years studying systems which turn out to be unsatisfactory or even worthless; which fail to answer any of the big questions about life and world events.
It is obvious that there is something missing in the prevailing world view presented by the mainstream sources.
Einstein once said, “A problem cannot be solved using the same thoughts or approach which caused it in the first place”.
Sooner or later, in one form or another, everyone will ask themselves these questions:
- Who am I?
- Is there a purpose to life?
- What happens to me when I die?
To gain some insights into the answers to these questions requires a good understanding of the nature of reality.
But as you will see, the nature of reality is far stranger than you can imagine.
Discoveries at the cutting edge of quantum physics about the true nature of reality give radical, new and exciting insights into topics that you may have considered the realm of metaphysics rather than the realm of science.
The consequences of these discoveries will lead you to a completely different view of your actions and the actions of other people; of what you think is possible and what is not possible.
To start the exploration of the true nature of reality you first need to consider this question:
- How do you experience reality?
- But more specifically, how do you experience your personal reality?
This is a subject often taken for granted, but well worth pondering for a moment or two.
It’s generally accepted that day to day experiences are received through the five senses, which are touch, taste, sight, hearing and smell.
But do you think your senses tell you everything about your day to day reality?
To help understand this point requires an examination of some of the senses in more detail.
Starting with the sense of sight, consider what science says about the light spectrum.
Most people will have encountered, in school science lessons, an experiment where a beam of white light was shone through a prism to see what happened.
The white beam was refracted by the prism into a band showing seven colors starting with red, followed by orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet.
A natural effect of this is seen in a rainbow, which is produced by the refraction of light by raindrops.
This effect is very interesting because, although you see this spectrum of colors, science says that it is part of the electromagnetic spectrum, which contains other frequencies in addition to visible light.
In fact, visible light makes up only a very small part of the electromagnetic spectrum.
Although science shows that other frequencies exist beyond the visible light spectrum, your eyes do not see them.
So, using the information from your sense of sight, you might be tempted to think that there are no such things as ultra-violet, infra-red, x-rays, gamma rays, radio waves and microwaves.
A similar experience occurs when another of the senses, namely hearing, is considered.
The human ear has been shown to perceive a range of sounds in the region of 15 Hertz to 20,000 Hertz (the more an object vibrates, the higher the frequency, which is measured in Hertz).
Generally for humans, frequencies beyond this range are not audible and therefore do not appear to exist.
But science demonstrates that for certain animals other frequencies are audible and are part of their everyday life.
In fact, many creatures have hearing ranges that quite significantly exceed the human range, for example bats and dolphins as well as cats and dogs.
These examples show that your senses do not tell you the whole story, but what is most interesting is that your senses actually filter out more than they let through.
This interesting topic can be taken one step further into what may seem a more bizarre area to those not familiar with the ‘quantum’ world.
It is not necessary to explain any of the complex math’s of quantum physics, but it is necessary to explain some basic science’ to understand the impact this subject has on your everyday reality.
To give you an idea of how exciting the science part of this is, consider the following question:
Is there such a thing as a solid object?
A ridiculous question you might think, but is it?
To gain a clearer understanding of what things are made of requires a closer look.
The floor you stand on for instance.
- It feels pretty solid doesn’t it?
- But what is it really made of?
- Wood?
- Brick?
- Concrete?
That is certainly its appearance, but what is being referred to here requires an explanation from science as to what things are really made of.
Scientists have always wanted to know how the world works in order to be able to understand the mystery of ‘life’.
They thought that by knowing how everything worked they would be able to predict what would happen next; they were on a search for the ‘theory of everything’.
Basic science says that everything is made of atoms, which at one time was thought to be the smallest piece of matter.
Having discovered the atom, scientists then proceeded to try and find out what that was made of.
They discovered that atoms have a nucleus surrounded by a number of orbiting electrons, which revolve about the nucleus at fantastic speeds.
As well as moving parts, they also discovered that there are spaces between each atom and its neighbor.
The scientists continued their quest to find the smallest piece of matter and soon realized that the nucleus of an atom is made of even smaller pieces, which they called neutrons and protons.
They have since found even smaller ‘pieces of matter’ and given them names like quarks, neutrinos and even more recently strings.
But surely they have to be made of something too?
Now this is where it becomes slightly embarrassing for the scientists.
The closer they have tried to look at all these pieces of matter the less they can determine what they are actually made of.
Matter seems to disappear before their eyes.
So, at the cutting edge of quantum physics, the best that can be determined is that matter is made of ‘energy’; but no-one is quite sure what energy is.
With this explanation, now reconsider the question previously asked:
Is there such a thing as a solid object?
The floor, which seems so solid to your sense of touch, is actually composed of lots of tiny atoms.
These atoms are far from stationary.
They have parts that move about at high speed.
And there are spaces between the atoms.
Each one of these atoms is made of even smaller bits which are made of, well, ‘energy’, but scientists are not really sure what that is.
Now you know why the question is not so ridiculous after all, just think about it again:
Is there such a thing as a solid object?
You have to admit that your sense of touch says yes, but what science has discovered about the nature of a so-called solid object might make you re-think that answer.
Contemplation of this topic has led physicist Harold Puthoff to reassess Albert Einstein’s famous equation, E=mc2.
Puthoff states that Einstein’s equation should be thought of as a recipe for how much energy is required to give the appearance of matter, that is, the appearance of something ‘solid’.
Now that you have had a chance to see how your senses can fool you, here is another mind-boggling question!
Do you think it is possible to know the true nature of reality just using the five senses you have?
If you consider the information covered so far, it is fair to say quite unequivocally that you are unable to rely on your senses to tell you about the true nature of the world you inhabit.
You have to admit that, at best, your five senses only provide a version of the true nature of reality.
This point becomes clearer if you regard the five senses as a set of filters.
In the case of your everyday reality, these filters actually filter out more than they let through, as shown with the simple examples of light and sound frequencies.
You may be wondering:
Why do we have this filtering system?
To help with the answer, consider this question:
What do you think would happen if suddenly your eyes could see light waves in the ultra-violet and infra-red ranges and your ears could sense ultra-sonic and sub-sonic sound?
Think about it!
Consider for a moment what it would be like to suddenly be aware of all that information!
It is reasonable to say that you would experience a totally different world from the one you experience now, a totally different reality.
Having considered some of your senses; how they ‘work’ and the reason for it, this topic can be expanded, but with a change of approach.
Consider the world you construct in a dream, the people, the buildings, the landscape etc.
Where do they exist?
- In your head?
- In your mind?
- In your imagination?
Would you describe yourself as ‘conscious’ when you are dreaming?
You can probably accept that you are experiencing a level of consciousness whilst dreaming; otherwise you would be unconscious in which case you would not be aware of anything.
Therefore, it seems reasonable to describe your dream life as a state of consciousness.
You now need to consider what is happening when you are in the dream ‘state of consciousness’.
In your dreams you can experience all the activities of your everyday reality, such as walking, talking, meeting people, driving a car.
You can see mountains, rivers, fields, houses, towns, cities, cars, people etc.
When you move in your dream-world, the dream floor you walk on seems solid enough.
In fact, all the objects and people you encounter in your dream state appear solid and external to you and you interact with them accordingly.
This is an extremely important point, because while you are deeply enmeshed in your dream it is your total reality and you are aware of no other.
It is only when you wake up that you realize that all the objects and people that seemed solid and external to you, were not.
They were all creations within consciousness produced by you.
While you are deep within that state of consciousness called dream, everything is completely real to you as the dreamer, as anyone who has had a frightening dream will know.
It is only when you awake from your dream that you consider the dream experiences and images to be ‘unreal’.
So far so good, but now it’s time to ask another seemingly crazy question.
What are the objects in a dream made of?
As this question is explored its relevance will become apparent.
It would seem reasonable to start with the statement:
Everything has to be made of something.
But does that include even a thought?
To help understand this a little better, consider the research that has been carried out into what happens when people dream.
There have been many laboratory experiments using an electroencephalograph to record brain activity during the state of dream.
The graphs produced from the experiments have demonstrated that ‘energy’ is emitted by the brain. (Energy! It’s that word again).
Of particular interest is the fact that a graph of the brain activity of an alert, awake person is very similar to a graph of a person in dreaming sleep.
But what is being recorded on these graphs of brain activity; are they actually recording the energy of a thought?
To develop an understanding of the energy of thought, consider the phenomena of telepathy and remote viewing.
What sort of energy is being used by people engaged in these phenomena?
Whatever you might think about them, telepathy and remote viewing are too well documented to deny that something very real is happening.
In case you are not familiar with the term remote viewing; it is the ability of a trained person to be situated in one location while able to view another location, anywhere in the world.
This is done purely with the mind, and in many cases very detailed information about the remote location has been reported.
It may sound surprising, but this very ability has been taken so seriously by both the Russian and American Secret Services, that they have used it to successfully spy on one another since the early 1970.s.
Telepathy has also been taken seriously by prominent scientists as the following account will show.
Apollo 14 astronaut Edgar Mitchell, an astrophysicist as well as an astronaut, had been conducting experiments into telepathy prior to the Apollo mission.
So he decided to conduct his own, unofficial experiment whilst on the Apollo mission.
He wanted to see if the 250,000 miles between him and Earth would have any effect on telepathic communication.
The experiments were designed to see if telepathic communication could occur by transmitting various symbols on a set of cards to colleagues back on Earth.
On his return to Earth, it was discovered that the success rate of the experiment exceeded the mathematical probability of the results being due to chance alone.
These examples quite clearly show that not only is reality very different from how it appears to be, but there is energy of some sort being used in quite extraordinary ways.
They also demonstrate the use of energy in connection with thought, whether it is thought in the waking state, the dream state or even telepathy.
So it is quite fair to say that thought must be some sort of energy.
Interestingly, that is exactly what so-called solid objects are made of!
Earlier in the module it was shown that your dream state can be called a state of consciousness.
In this state of consciousness you create people, places and objects and then interact with them as if they were solid, external to you and independent of you.
It was also shown that your thoughts and so-called solid objects are all energy and that any use of consciousness is also a use of energy.
It is amazing that no matter what is examined, whether ‘thought’ or ‘solid objects’, it is all comprised of this mysterious substance called energy; but no one seems to know exactly what that is.
The next step is momentous.
You now need to understand that your waking state is a state of consciousness.
At first hearing, this statement may sound implausible.
But think about it for a moment.
Is there any reason why your waking state could not be another state of consciousness similar to the dream state of consciousness?
If you construct and manipulate dream objects, which are energy, is it possible that you construct and manipulate everyday so-called solid objects, which are also energy?
The following statements by some eminent quantum physicists about the nature of reality will help you understand this concept, which is expanded upon throughout the book.
Physicist Professor Amit Goswami has stated quite clearly that
“Matter, energy and consciousness are the same thing.”
Physicist Roger S Jones states:
“I had come to suspect, and now felt compelled to acknowledge, that science and the physical world were products of human imagining; that we were not the cool observers of that world, but its passionate creators. We were all poets and the world was our metaphor.”
Physicist John Wheeler states:
“Useful as it is under everyday circumstances to say that the world exists out there independent of us, that view can no longer be upheld.”
The consequences of this information are so far-reaching that they require you to reassess everything you think you know about yourself and your world.
Especially when you take into consideration the facts and research on the holographic brain and the role visualization plays in reaching personal goals and achieving personal success!
