What the Physicists Say

Quantum physicist Nick Herbert describes the pulsating nature of reality as follows:

Physicist Louis de Broglie discovered that all objects, whether it be a pea or a planet, had a nonphysical side a second form or what they called a quantum wave that is not "real" in our three-dimensional world, though its consequences are.

Physicist John Wheeler states that:

Physicist Erwin Schrödinger says that the world consists of elements of consciousness.

David Bohm's book Quantum Theory captured the scientific community?s attention, in part because through it he formally introduced the concept of a transcendental realm in which all places and times were merged.

The Copenhagen Interpretation

Physicists as a whole, if polled, would most likely endorse the Copenhagen interpretation of quantum theory formulated by the Danish physicist Niels Bohr.  Its central premise is that there is no objective reality at the subatomic level.  Quantum particles are not solid like billiard balls or ball-bearings.  The basic constituents of matter are not things.  Put another way, quantum "particles" unobserved are not real.

Famous physicist Werner Heisenberg adds that this ghostly world out of which actual particles form by an act of observation, is one of potential (Aristotle?s term).  All possible events exist in ghostly form, in potential or probable form in what physicists call the quantum wave field.

Any given event has infinite versions within an inconceivably vast all-encompassing ocean of infinite probabilities.  The act of observation draws one probability out, materializing it as a real physical event.  In the same way, our courses explain that whatever you keep your attention centered on is what you will create in your physical world.  The inner experience of keeping your authentic self focused on the object of your desire is the creation process for your life.  Physicist Hugh Everett, who worked in the Pentagon and military (on atomic issues) was first to precisely introduce (at Princeton) the concept of multiple probabilities on which this concept and EN?s curriculum is based.

The Science: An Overview

Scientists describe reality in broader terms by means of quantum physics, even though a quantum is the smallest discrete unit of energy (released or observed in a process).  The picture quantum physics paints is all-inclusive in its expansiveness.  It goes beyond a one-dimensional model.  In the process of doing so it explains a source system that serves-up matter in the same way a master language such as Latin is a source out of which other languages come.  Unlimited possibilities quasi-realities exist in what physicists call a quantum wave field.  Individual events are singular manifestations of multiple realities within this field.  Wave-particle duality is another way to understand this concept.

The critics that don?t accept any of this hang onto Newtonian physics, but this shows that they do not understand the issues.  For one reason or another they simply must hold onto a small (local) view of reality.

OUR SCIENCE DOES NOT CONFLICT WITH ACCEPTED PHYSICS

Einstein?s theory of relativity is the foundation of modern physics.  In relativity theory, the particle of Newtonian or classic physics is no longer a thing, but is a vortex-like disturbance in a continual field, (wave-particle dualism).

Quantum physics indicates that there is an interaction between human consciousness and this vortex-like disturbance.

It is widely accepted in physics that Einstein?s wave-particle dualism is an absolutely general phenomenon extending to all physical matter.

This science and everything written in this excerpt in no way conflicts with Newtonian physics.  Newtonian physics is simply incomplete, it describes only the characteristics of groups of particles, and does not delve into the nature of single particles.  Quantum physics does that.  This fact is validated by the world?s most recognized authorities, yet few people realize it, or its astounding implications.
