Are we living in a time- and spaceless world - The Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen paradoxon

Franz Moser

On the basis of experimental data from physical experiments, one must conclude that we live in two worlds at the same time. One is a world of time- and spacelessness, which emerges from the work of physicists and therefore must be accepted as a true reality. On the other hand, we all live at the same moment in a world of time and space. The explanation one can give is that this world which we live in must be an illusion. One can imagine that this illusionary world is projected from a mind conglomerate, which has separated from the original mind all-unity state, many millions of years ago. It is obvious that such a new worldview, containing two worlds and an illusionary world, is very challenging to man's mind. The present prevailing materialistic paradigm is, as one can imagine, in complete contrast with a paradigm of two worlds. Therefore, as these paradigms are incommensurable, the present materialistic paradigm can no longer be sustained as it not based on scientific findings and is therefore detrimental to the existence of society. However, it is obvious that it will take many years before the new paradigm, which is a holistic and spiritual one, is accepted by society.

I Make the World

Danah Zohar

Famous experiments in quantum physics demonstrate that the way a scientist sets up his experimental apparatus will determine the result that he then measures. And Heisenberg’s Uncertainty Principle tells us that the questions we ask create the answers that we get. Thus quantum physics tells us we live in a “Participatory Universe” in which we human beings, through the thoughts that we think, and the actions that we take, cocreate reality. We make the world that we live in, and thus we are responsible for the world we have made. And, we have the capacity to make a different or better world simply by changing our thinking and thus the actions that follow from our thoughts. As Harry Truman once said, “There ain’t nobody here but us chickens.” We will be the authors of the post-Covid world.
