Observation

Asking For What You Want

flow of lifeCreating is fun! Its easy to observe that an artist can paint a picture after years of study and have a technique that is so polished that creating seems natural. It’s easy to observe how someone takes actions in a succession that have been proven to manifest something in the physical (like building a house or even something like a relationship).

What is not as easy to observe is how we begin to create subtle, unseen manifestation within our mental and emotional world. We are not taught this is valuable in our world. Even though artists do it, and perhaps inventors (and we’re reminded how slim the ‘success rate’ is with those two professions), we’re taught that people are only successful when they follow outward action steps that have been proven by others (i.e. work your way up the corporate ladder, etc.).

Thought-Provoking Quantum Experiments Show Reality Is Only An Illusion

“. . . where the observation ends and reality begins, is up to each of us.” J Richardson

Eye_HolographicIllusionNo one in the world can fathom what quantum mechanics is, this is perhaps the most important thing you need to know about it. Granted, many physicists have learned to use its laws and even predict phenomena based on quantum calculations, but it is still unclear why the observer of an experiment affects the behavior of the system and causes it to favor one state over another.

Here are some examples of experiments with outcomes which will inevitably be influenced by the observer, which show how quantum mechanics deals with the intervention of conscious thought in material reality.

Diffraction of Electrons

According to the poll of the greatest physicists conducted by The New York Times, the experiment with electron diffraction is one of the most astonishing studies in the history of science. What was its nature?

There is a source that emits a stream of electrons onto photosensitive screen. And there is an obstruction in the way of these electrons, a copper plate with two slits. What kind of picture can be expected on the screen if the electrons are imagined as small charged balls? Two strips illuminated opposite to the slits, right?

In fact, the screen displays a much more complex pattern of alternating black and white stripes. This is due to the fact that, when passing through the slit, electrons begin to behave not as particles, but as waves (just like the photons, or light particles, which can be waves at the same time). These waves interact in space, either quenching or amplifying each other, and as a result, a complex pattern of alternating light and dark stripes appears on the screen. Continue reading →

The New Way Is The Way Through

Now, more than ever, it’s wise to encourage our children’s faculties of perception, some of which are called extra-sensory. They’re not really extra, as we know… they’re natural. Just in the course of accomplishing daily activities, we can create situations and games that affirm and strengthen a child’s natural abilities of observation, perception, intuition and feeling.

We can also set up experiences that show how change need not be stressful – in fact, it can be calmly experienced and even enjoyed. Children do need a solid foundation of trust in themselves and in their caregivers, as we are living in a time of collapse and renewal.

Things are going to change, and the emotional wave of fear will be all around us. If we support the child’s natural ability to see and feel their way through things, they’ll make smarter decisions and be less affected by fear.

There are any number of games you can create to heighten awareness. Children quickly understand games, and they love to be tested. For example, while driving with them, take an alternate route, well beyond the places that they are familiar with. Then at some point, ask them to help you find the way home. Let them decide which way to turn, and follow their directions.
