Step 1: Understand Your World
The world that you live in comes about in a certain way. Most
people do not understand how it comes about, moment by moment,
exactly. In fact, very, very few people understand how each
moment is created. Understanding how your world comes into
being, and your exact role in it, is what shall begin to get
you out of the trap of suffering and shortage and into freedom
and abundance.
You shall now see Nobel Prize winning scientific and spiritual
evidence that shall convince you that you are at cause for
everything in your world...and that you can change the effect
any time.
Right now its time for some scientific evidence of this. Many
Nobel Prize winning physicists have recently (starting in the
1920s) proven beyond doubt that the physical world is one large
sea of energy that flashes into and out of being in a fraction
of a second, over and over again. Nothing is solid. This is the
world of Quantum Physics. They have proven that thoughts are
what put together and hold together this ever-changing energy
field into the "objects" that we see. So why do we see a person
instead of a flashing cluster of energy?
Think of a movie reel.
A movie is a collection of about 24 frames a second. Each frame
is separated by a gap. However, because of the speed at which
one frame replaces another, our eyes get cheated into thinking
that we see a continuous and moving picture.
Think of television. A TV tube is simply a tube with heaps of
electrons hitting the screen in a certain way, creating the
illusion of form and motion. This is what all objects are
anyway. You have 5 physical senses (sight, sound, touch, smell,
taste). Each of those senses has a specific spectrum (for
example, a dog hears a different range of sound than you do; a
snake sees a different spectrum of light than you do; and so
on). In other words, your set of senses perceives the sea of
energy from a certain limited standpoint and makes up an image
from that. It is not complete, nor is it accurate. It is just
an interpretation.
Our thoughts are linked to this energy and they determine what
the energy forms. This explains things such as positive
thinking, prayer, faith, creativity, goal-setting, disease, and
much more in a very scientific way. Your thoughts literally
shift the universe on a particle-by-particle basis to create
your physical life. Look around you. Everything you see started
as an idea, an idea that grew as it was shared and expressed,
until it grew enough into a physical object through any number
of "manufacturing" or "growth" steps. You literally become what
you think about most. Your life becomes what you have imagined
and believed in most. The world is literally your mirror,
enabling you to experience in the physical plane what you hold
as your truth ... until you change it. You know this to be true
internally, and so do most people, and that is why people know
instinctively that positive thinking works.
Quantum physics shows you that the world is not the hard and
unchangeable thing it may appear to be. Instead, it is a very
fluid place continuously built up using our individual and
collective thoughts and states of being as a society, country,
family, planet, solar system, or universe. We have begun to
uncover the illusion.
What is your body made of? Tissues and organs. What are tissues
and organs made of? Cells. What are cells made of? Molecules.
What are molecules made of? Atoms. What are atoms made of? Sub-
atomic particles. What are subatomic particles made of? Energy?
No. They are not made of energy; they are energy. You are one
big "chunk" of energy. And so is everything else.
Spirit and Mind puts together this energy into the physical
shape you are used to seeing with your limited set of senses.
If you go into a high-tech lab right now and ask them to let
you see yourself under a powerful electron microscope and
conduct other experiments on yourself, you will see that you
are made up of a cluster of ever-changing energy in the form of
electrons, neutrons, photons and so on. And so is your wallet,
your spouse, your car, and everything else. Quantum physics
tells us that it is the act of observing an object that causes
it to be there where and how we observe it. An object does not
exist independently of its observer!
Energy is the sub-atomic particles that come together to "make
up" atoms, which come together to "make up" matter. Matter is
energy. Matter is not converted energy, it is energy. Ever
heard of Einstein"s equation, E=mc2? What it means is that any
piece of matter of mass m is energy that can be calculated by
multiplying that mass by the speed of light squared (what a
large number!). You are literally made up of light, the same
stuff light is made of (hence the Bible and many other
spiritual texts tell us that light was the first thing to be
created). Scientifically speaking, this energy exists as waves
spread out over space and time. Only when you exercise
observation do these waves become particles localized as a
spacetime event, a particle at a particular "time" and "space".
As soon as you withdraw observation, they become a wave again.
So, as you can see, your observation, your attention to
something, and your intention, literally creates that thing as
a space-time event. This is scientific. Even your relationships
with other people are governed this way by unfailing laws of
cause and effect. Your world is made of spirit, mind and body.
Each of those three, spirit, mind and body, has a function that
is unique to it and not shared with the other. What you see
with your eyes and experience with your body is the physical
world, which we shall call Body. Body is an effect, created by
a cause. This cause is Thought. Body cannot create. It can only
experience and be experienced ... that is its unique function.
Thought cannot experience ... it can only make up, create and
interpret. It needs a world of relativity (the physical world,
Body) to experience itself. Spirit is All That Is, that which
gives Life to Thought and Body. Body has no power to create,
although it gives the illusion of power to do so. This illusion
is the cause of much frustration, as you will soon see. So here
are the functions and characteristics again:
- Spirit ... Function: Life Force. Characteristics: Eternal,
Infinite, All Knowing, All Powerful, One With All,
Invulnerable, Unconditionally Loving, Fearless.
- Mind ... Function: Create by extension of Thought, which, as
you shall scientifically see, shifts the energy that comprises
all things physical. Characteristics: "Split" between Higher
Mind and Lower Mind. Higher mind has same characteristics as
spirit while lower mind tends to identify with Body.
- Body ... Function: To experience. Experiences are possible
only in a world of relativity (mind and spirit exist in a realm
of absolute, not relativity, where comparison is impossible).
Body is purely an effect and has no power to cause or create.
Characteristics: Takes on whatever characteristics the mind
gives it.
