The Pathway To Your Results

Science, Spirituality, and Religion

Derick Grant Season 5 Episode 227

Prepare to embark on a riveting journey, as we dive into the fascinating world of quantum physics, spirituality, and religion. Unveiling the tapestry of these seemingly disparate realms, we promise to shed light on their interconnectedness, challenging the common misconception of their separateness. One of our key focuses is to understand the three planes of existence - spirit, mind, and body - which contribute to a deeper perception of our place in the cosmos.

Can you imagine how the complexities of consciousness intertwine with man-made structures like religion? As we dissect these paradigms, created to help us navigate through our spiritual experiences, we provide insights on how they significantly influence our understanding of reality. We also explore the crucial role of parables and metaphors in teaching, further showcasing the power of language in shaping our perceptions. 

Astonishingly, there's a place where science and spirituality converge - the quantum level. Here, we demystify the observer effect and how quantum behavior impacts our understanding of the world. The concept of oneness is also examined, challenging the notion of a foreign, distant God, and instead, pointing towards an omnipresent entity. Engage with us on this enlightening journey, as we explore our path towards a profound understanding of our true selves, guided by spirituality, religion, and science.

Speaker 1:

Once you see what you actually are, that you're an infinite, limitless being, you'll see that nothing exists outside of you. I'm your host, derek Grant, and this is the pathway to your results podcast. Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, cats and dogs, lions, tigers and bears, welcome back to the Pathway to Your Results Podcast. I am your host, dg. Privilege and Honor always to share this thing called space and time with you. I'm glad that we were able to do this yet again. Oh man, this episode I've been formulating I wrote a 10 page paper on it trying to figure out a way to digest everything that I have here inside of this cranium and pull it down out of the ethers. But you saw the episode title and religion, science and spirituality, and they're just different sides of the same coin And hopefully my intention with this is to show that they're all actually connected and they're not separate. They're not separate. I actually had a guy on Instagram send me a, someone asked me a question on there that I answered and they're asking. They asked how can you explain how? everything is one thing And I use, i reference the Big Bang Theory and this guy, who I don't really know, but I know he's, you know, pretty devout Christian says come on, i love your stuff, but this is crazy that you said this like I can pull holes in the Big Bang And I realized that that moment. I'm like I got to do this podcast because people don't understand. They think that science is separate from religion and they think that spirituality is separate from religion and they think that science is separate from. They're all literally like one thing. So I'm going to go through and break down how and why and how we got to this point, why we develop religion, what science is, what all that, all those things are.

Speaker 1:

So first thing, first, let's give you a definition of what we say in Oxford dictionary. So let's start with I'm trying to think here which one we want to start with. Let's start with spirituality. Okay, Spirituality. Spirituality is the quality of being concerned with the human spirit or soul as opposed to material or physical things. So when you hear that, that's essentially saying you're more concerned with the spiritual world than you are. The physical plane. Well, when we understand the three planes of existence that we live in spirit, minded, body, right And we reside on all three our awareness is on all three of them. The causal plane, the first one is the spiritual plane. So spirituality is actually the game that you should be actually probably playing, okay, because you are a spirit. Like, if I'm a basketball player, i should play basketball. If I'm a spirit, I should probably play spirituality, because that's what it's concerning. Okay, so I say that because this was like, i think, sometimes with human beings, we, we, we, we have just this misunderstanding through words.

Speaker 1:

Words help us, but then words also trip us up. Think about how hard it is to learn the English language. Like, if you look at the word too, we have two, we have to, we have T O O, we have T W O. But if I'm just saying to, if you don't understand, you won't understand the context. We do this all the time with words, with spirituality, with religion, with science. So don't let the words hang you up as my point. Here's what we have to understand with, with spirituality.

Speaker 1:

Spirituality is essentially the understanding of the self, the spirit, consciousness. Do you see? It's the understanding of it. So here we are on this physical plane, trying to understand the non physical, the unseen, or what we would say the quantum world. So in this practice, most spiritual seekers, they're on a journey to figure out techniques and practices, especially like in the beginning of like trying to figure out what is it, what is it I want to be Or what is it I'm striving for. So most often the result is an allegiance with all these different practices.

Speaker 1:

So I can think about in my own life, when I first started this journey of having this awakening, i mean I was doing it, i was trying and doing everything. It was like a little bit of this, a little bit of that, but it was this, a little bit of that. And I realized now what I was doing was I was looking for a lifestyle or a personality or a spiritual experience that was matching my level of consciousness. So that's why, over over the years, over the time it has evolved and has become more refined, because my consciousness has expanded. So along this journey, we start to have spiritual doubt that arises and you start to question like, is this really like? I thought I was crazy, actually for a while, like man this is. I'm not, i'm losing my mind. My wife thought I was crazy, everybody thought I was crazy. It's like wait, what's going on? He's got all these tattoos now What is going on with him? What? And it made me like question everything. It questions like, for a period of time, like I questioned everything because I didn't realize that the truth that I was seeking was on an inner path, i was still caught up in the outer path.

Speaker 1:

And this, this is where, like, inner alignment with integrity and inner honesty will always prevail and the outcome will always be aligned with the prevailing intention. So I say that because it's so important for you to know what it is you're looking for and what you're looking to do. So I stopped changing of. Oh, i want to be. This is what I used to say. I want to be enlightened. What the what does that even mean? That's just. That's just the word. It's just the word that the illusion that there is going to be a moment in time, a destination when you will be. I'm enlightened now. No, you are enlightening. There is no moment of enlightenment. There isn't. You're just constantly enlightening. So I say that, in the long run, the ultimate guide is actually your inner self, your higher self, your spirit, consciousness, whatever you want to call it as, refer to it as it's. It lives this life of non-duality. But we're on a path, in this video game, in this three dimensional reality of connecting, of remembering it.

Speaker 1:

So this is why devotion or pathways or practices are chosen, and this is what we call people back in the day. We call them mystics. They are there. They're there. Essentially, they were essentially people who have these inner experiences. They had inner alignment and they were on a path to expand who they were and they were having these transcendental experiences. And it's like, wait, like, how do they do that? How did the Yeshua ben Yoseph do that? How did Siddhartha Guadma? How did the Buddha? How did they do that? How did it? and this is where their followers created teachings and This is where we get religion.

Speaker 1:

So, for the serious one, right, the mystic, the dedicated search for enlightenment is Energized by their intention and then it's empowered by their devotion, which then leads to the inner search for truth instead of the outside, Which is characterized by meditation or yoga or a contemplative lifestyle. You see what I'm saying. So, like And even though in the beginning the search for like, it may be like exploratory, investigative, or like, like experiential, experimental, like we're trying to figure out what, what, what works, like I was doing what works, as time goes on, it becomes the predominant motive or the core of your, your prevailing dedication of who you actually are. So now I've gone from Meditating maybe once a week or maybe you know, every, when I, when I need it, or like to now. It's just like, literally like how you brush your teeth every day. Maybe you don't brush your teeth, maybe some people do, i don't know. I'm assuming that you do But becomes just a practice. So it's common.

Speaker 1:

So so I say that, because spirituality essentially is The act of you evolving internally first, internally, spirituality deals with the inner world. First, when we do a couple episodes ago, when we talked about the, the, how your life is just a mirror, think of like this spirituality is, is dealing with the image, and Then religion is basically the outer world. It's dealing with the reflection. But this is why we're seeing people are getting caught up and because, essentially, the outer world was just the effect of the inner world. This is why we developed religion. Religion was developed So those who could not, who maybe weren't on that path, they would at least have a framework to of what to follow. But because, like I said, with words and semantics we end up losing what we were supposed to be, what, what initially, what it was saying.

Speaker 1:

So I want to make sure that I don't jump around too much. There's some terms that we need to need, we need to know. Okay, consciousness, consciousness, okay, we throw that word around a lot, but we need to understand what consciousness is. Consciousness is everything. There's nothing that it's not. It's, it's. It's sometimes we refer to as energy, sometimes we refer to it as being, we refer to the spirit.

Speaker 1:

If you look at the definition of consciousness, it's really not an easy definition because there's like five different definitions of it. The word consciousness derives from two words the Latin word, the Latin verb, which is sire, which means to know, and then the Latin preposition, which has come, which means with So. Consciousness. Etymology, etymologically speaking, means to know, with so. If we look at the Oxford dictionary definition of it, one definition is a joint or mutual understanding, a Never. Another definition of this is internal knowledge or conviction, especially of one's own ignorance, guilt, deficiencies and so forth. Third definition of it is the fact or state of being conscious or aware of anything. The fourth definition the state or faculty of being conscious as a condition or Concomitant of all thought, feeling, involition. The fifth definition the totality of the impressions, thoughts and feelings which make up a person's being. The state of being Conscious regarded as the normal condition of healthy, waking life. So these are just the definitions that have essentially been given to us by the dictionary for us to use as a framework.

Speaker 1:

But understand what I'm talking about consciousness, if you have religious context. I'm talking about basically, spirit, and Spirit is everything. There's nowhere that it's not, and I'm going to show you how. In science, there's a similarity, there's a, there's a parallel between this thing that we call a photon of light or energy, and spirit. And then, when you look at religion and how they talk about God, there's a parallel between a photon of light which is omnipresent, it's everywhere, it carries all information, has all knowledge, it's Omnichens, it's all powerful, it's all. It carries the same characteristics as these, these characters in the Bible.

Speaker 1:

So first, before we get started with that, we need to understand Basically religion. See, i used to think religion was like Christianity was absolute, like that was it, that was fact, that's what it is. but then I started, my wife got a job with church of God ministries a couple years ago and, and I remember she came, she told me she's like yeah, we're church of God, but they're not Dominational, or, and they're this and they're that. I'm like wait, what is dominant. What is that? What does that mean? What is denominator? What does that tell me?

Speaker 1:

I don't understand. She's like, well, you know, like you have like Baptist, you have Catholic, you have like Protestant, you have evangelical, you have Methodist, and I'm like wait, huh so, but they all believe in God and like Jesus and stuff. She's like yeah, yeah, no, yeah, and I'm like wait so, so, wait, wait, wait. So I don't understand, i'm my mind couldn't, could wrap with, i couldn't understand it. So you mean to tell me You all believe in like God and then Jesus, but yet you have your own like system. I don't, i don't understand. And then, and then your system has like different rules or like different like Principles than this, but yet you got so then. So then my religion of what I'm in actually isn't absolute, then is it?

Speaker 1:

That's when everything, just everything, just blew up. I was I Can't explain the amount of emotions that I had just like wait, wait, what, how, what? and then I realized that religion was man-made, man-made. So, therefore, if it's man-made, that means it has to be mind-made, and if it's mind-made, then it's going to be of the ego, hmm, you see. And if it's of the ego, it's going to create separation, dc. See, the spirit knew that then nothing was, nothing was separate. The spirit knew, the spirit knew that everything was one, it was oneness, as as, as the book proclaims, dc. So now I realized at that moment Wait, this is oh, that's why they had the per, the crusades, and, and we see, wars started over religious beliefs, because they're man-made, they're not actually absolute.

Speaker 1:

Is there something that's absolute? Which is why we have over 300 religions? because they're all just mind-made perceptions, they're all just what, what a man has created To fit its Spiritual path, do you see? so this one goes back to spirituality. We created a framework to help us with this experiential, subjective, spiritual Experience that we're having, so we generalized it through religion.

Speaker 1:

So here, how many times do we have someone has a dream, someone to have a dream, and then like Or you have a dream, and then you tell somebody that dream and you know for sure that you had that dream, that you experienced. I just had a dream last night. I was riding around in a matte black Bentley and I had this house with this u-shaped driveway. I experienced it, without a, without a doubt, i experienced it, but I can't prove it. But here's what I could do. I could go and preach this and tell my followers and tell all my my people under me and tell them everything, and then they would then create a Framework so they too could have that same experience. But because they did not have the same experience that I did, they had to do it through teaching with parables. Do you see how this works? that's why Jesus spoke in parables. That's why every teacher always spoke in metaphors and analogies and parables. It was because the only way to to essentially Create this framework around this, this transcendental teaching, teachers, teachings was to speak in code, because they themselves have not had it, had not experienced it.

Speaker 1:

So now we create all of these different religions based on Our own world perspective, because everybody in their own, wherever you are I traveled to 70 different countries I can tell you every place has this different perspective. We can go. We can go just in the United States. We can go just in the United States. Some people call it soda, some people call it pop, some call, some call it. I don't know who else they call it, but they have all these different names, but we're talking and experiencing the same, different, same thing. It will be based upon your region, the vibration of frequency, of where you're at. So if you look at this, if you just look at what's going on, like we Look at religion, right, some of the major religion we have?

Speaker 1:

Christianity. Their teachings are the path of love and forgiveness. Right, their mystics, their teachers, the ones who have these transcendental experiences, they are called Nostics Buddhism. The Buddhism is the path of compassion. Their teachers, who have these transcendental experiences, aka mystics, it's called Zen Buddhism. We have Judaism. Judaism is the path of living by sacred law. Who are their mystics? Who are the mystical teachings Created after? the Kabbalist is why we have the Kabbalah Islam, the path of submission to the will of God. Who are their mystics? the Sophies, i Could go on and on and on. Taoism, the path of ultimate reality. Hinduism, the path of knowledge and action, of action and devotion. Who are their mystics? the Vedantas Do you see how this works?

Speaker 1:

So every single religion had its teacher who was quote-unquote enlightened, and all that meant was that, spiritually, they were tapped into their higher self. They were in the physical plane, but there was unison with the spiritual plane. Their higher self, their spirit, their consciousness, whatever their ego, had been dissolved Enough to the point that they could have direct unison with it. So we create these religions, okay, so. So stay with me here. Stay with me, because this is going to, this is going to help, this is going to help you a lot. Okay, so we started off with Polytheism. Polytheism, when you see, like, look like the Greeks, they had the Greek gods. So all this is is essentially that we created polytheism, religion to, it's relating to or characterized by a belief or a worship in more than one God. So, so what? what happens is The state of reaching enlightenment becomes impractical because the mind conceptualizes in terms of cause and effect, and then the followers conceive of themselves as being driven, implying Like inner willpower, instead of the reality that they are actually being attracted to it by their religion. So, through this situation so I say that because we gotta give the definition of religion as well. I'm jumping around a lot, but stay with me Religion is the belief in and a worship of a superhuman controlling power, especially a personal God or gods.

Speaker 1:

So the etymology of Religion comes from the old French or from the Latin word religion, which means obligation, bond, reverence, based upon the Latin word reglaire, which means to bind. Okay, are you staying with me here? So the two main premises behind religion are belief and superhuman Meaning. It's outside of man's concept of what man, it transcends man. So belief, the definition of that is trust in faith or confidence in something or someone superhuman Having a showing or exceptional ability to our powers. So now, what we've just done is we have Created this transcendental experience that we are all in Cape, that we are all capable of having, but now we have put it and Made it outside of us by by creating it to be superhuman. And now the only way for you to even conceive of that is to have a belief. Do you see?

Speaker 1:

so think of it like this spirituality is the is, is is The whole Globe, the whole world in religion is a continent. And Then we go on that continent, that one continent, and we think this is the whole world, it's not the whole world. It's not the whole world, it is not. So this is what we, this is what I say was the biggest thing that fractured my soul, my ego is like no was when I realized that my religion Was just, really just one perspective of this universal truth and I had to figure out what is this universal truth? all these different religions There has to be something that they're all talking about. You mean to tell me there's over 300 religions, was I don't know how many different deities there are, but you mean to tell me that there's all of these different deities that even just like within Christianity, in Islam and Hinduism, i was like, so, wait, is God the only one who I don't know? You got, you got, you got the, you got the Islam's right, you got you gonna make them. Okay, cool, cool, yo, um yo, krishna, krishna, what's up with Brahmin? is Brahmin? Is he gonna take care of everybody on that side of the globe, or what? who's? who's making those? and I realize I'm like, wait, there has to be an absolute, there has to be one thing, there has to be one thing, and this is what we're gonna get to.

Speaker 1:

So we have science and then we have a religion. Sorry, you have spirituality, we have religion. And see, understand, see, religion is based upon the exoteric understanding of the physical and spiritual world. Exoteric, exo, that means outside of you. Spirituality is based upon the esoteric understanding of the spiritual world and how it pertains to the physical world. So here's why we're here's the biggest way With religion, the spiritual world is the effect of the spiritual world. Do you see? so physical devotion creates the spiritual experience, with esoteric teachings of religion, with esoteric teachings of spirituality. Basically, the spiritual world, the unseen, is what dictates the physical world. So that's why spirituality actually it would have had to have come first before religion, which is what is called the spiritual world. That's why spirituality actually it would have had to have come first before religion, which is why religion was just the effect of spirituality.

Speaker 1:

Spirituality created religion because it's like wait, what, what? how are people wait? Yeah, does he know all this? How is he? how does he understand this? How he's under? We got to figure out a way to do this. So what do we do? We create a framework, we create a, we create a template, we create a box.

Speaker 1:

And if you follow these guidelines, if you follow this doctrine, then you too will hopefully achieve what this teacher is telling us. But because it gets misconstrued, we over here, we're so far away from it. We thought heaven was out there, we thought heaven was in the sky. We prayed to god outside of us. When god, we, we, but we'll go to church and it tells us god is omnipresent. Well, if something is omnipresent omnia is greek for the word all it means that it's everywhere, there's nowhere, that it's not Including you. And you know what, when you look at it, the teacher was telling you the kingdom of god is found within you. Do not look and say lo behold there or lo behold there. He who says that is deceiver. It's not inside, it's not on the outside, it's inside of you. But we've been so conditioned because we get taught, because out of a state of fear, we're afraid to ask and learn and go on our own journey. But the path of the, the, the path, the way, the light.

Speaker 1:

But if jesus was saying was the path of you and your inner standing, that was how is the inner world so people say well, no, jesus is our lord and savior. You're right. Jesus is the lord and savior. Jesus is your lord and savior. Jesus is your lord and savior because jesus was you. It was the inner part of you. Why do you think he said i am, i am, that i am. It was going to be whatever you needed it to be. It was every time you proclaimed the i am. It was what we call consciousness, spirit, whatever you refer to it as.

Speaker 1:

So this is where we get Misconstrued over time to think that jesus was something outside of us, and then we worship it, and he who is holding the thing that we are worshiping is actually the thing that has control over you. So now you can't even think for yourself, because you live in a perpetual state of fear, because there's this notion of I gotta get to there, i gotta get to there, i gotta make sure that I do this so I can get to there. There is no there. All the thing, the only thing that existed, was here. That's all that existed. It was here and now there is no there. That was the illusion that the ego created, you see. So this is the whole concept of heaven. The concept of heaven Was that it was outside of you. When jesus told you in luke 1721? He told you it was inside of you. So how can something being inside of me, in the hair, i'm chasing on the outside, because who is holding what's outside of you will essentially control you, do? you see? Let's take a break there. I threw a lot at you. Hear me when I'm saying this. I'm not coming from a place of duality. I'm not. I'm not. I'm not putting down religion, i'm not putting, i'm not putting down spiritual, i'm not. I'm just giving you. I'm just giving you the facts of, of, of, from my perception and this level of awareness that I'm at right now of how I perceive it. Okay, maybe, continue on, we may. Okay, so now We have science.

Speaker 1:

Science is the systematic study of the structure and behavior of the physical and natural world through observation and experimentation. So essentially, this is what happens with science Science works only when you can measure it. So if you can't measure it, that means it's not real. That's what we call materialism. So if I can't measure it, it's not real.

Speaker 1:

You see, you see, well, i can tell you one thing Science can't measure a feeling. Science still does not know what a feeling is. They know the effect of a feeling, but they don't know what a feeling is. Do you see? so because they don't know what a feeling is, we don't give much to it. So we ignore our feelings. We actually get taught to ignore our feelings, but little did you know your feelings were actually more real than your thoughts. So my point of this is is because we can't measure something, we think it's not real. I can, i can list a lot of things. You can't measure Your great-great-grandparents. You don't know if they actually live. You see pictures of them, you hear about them, but you don't know for your fact because you actually, you actually have not measured them with the five senses, but so you for sure do not know if they actually existed, but we, we assume. So I say this because this is What happens, was, is, is basically religion In spirituality become complete opposites and science becomes, it gets wedged in there because If it's not real, sorry, if you can't measure it, it's not real.

Speaker 1:

Well, that's the whole spiritual world. That's the whole spiritual world. So science is going to be delayed, is my point. Science is going to be so far behind because they can only measure what is in the physical, material world, not quantum physics, though I like to call quantum physics spiritual science. They starting to catch up now. This is why Nikola Tesla, that's why who else we could say Albert Einstein? You start to study their teachings and you listen. These dudes were. These dudes were mystics. They were mystics. That's what they were. They were mystics, they were a scientific understanding past supreme. Anyone else? Elon Musk, another one? Say what you want. I'm going to get into it a little later, but anyway, let's keep going.

Speaker 1:

So the antithesis of the material realism is mono, monoistic idealism. In this philosophy, consciousness, not matter, is fundamental meaning. Spirit comes first. Both the world, matter and the world of the mental phenomena, such as thoughts, are determined by consciousness. So mono monistic idealism is a unitary philosophy, meaning any subdivisions, divisions, such as the imminent and the transcendent, those fall within consciousness. So thus consciousness is the only ultimate reality. Another word for consciousness is spirit. So let me say that sentence again for you. Okay, let me repeat that within, this monoistic idealism is a unitary philosophy that any subdivisions, such as the imminent and the transcendent, all fall within spirit. Thus spirit is the only ultimate reality. So in the Christian world, the names of the transcendent and imminent realism are called heaven and earth. Here's what happens, though.

Speaker 1:

Our everyday usage fails to recognize the origin of these notions. In the monistic idealism, beyond the kingdom of heaven and earth is a Godhead, in the king of the kingdoms, and the kingdoms do not exist separately from the king. The king is the kingdoms. So this is why I try to tell you many times that you were it. It was you, because you are just consciousness and everything is consciousness and there is no separation between it and anything else. So when we look around us, normally what we see is we only see physical matter, we see the physical world, we see the physical plane. So heaven is not a tangible object of ordinary perception. This is not only what leads us to refer to matter as quote unquote real, but it's also what induces us to accept a realist philosophy that proclaims matter and its alternate form, which we call energy, to be the only reality. So this is where the mystic comes in.

Speaker 1:

So in our everyday experiences of this world, there's evidence that's all around us that things are material and separate from each other and from us. Right Mental experiences, such as thoughts, they don't seem like they're material. So we've developed this dualistic philosophy that basically says that mind and body are separate domains. So because of these shortcomings of duality, of dualism, it can't be explained how a separate, non material mind interacts with a material body. If there's such mind body interactions, then there have to be an exchange of energy between these two domains. I can't see your thoughts, but your thoughts somehow, somehow have an effect on your physical body, and we know that brains are not the root of consciousness. Consciousness has been quantified by science, do you see? So quantum physics has proven that consciousness is fundamental to this universe and it is the mechanism that manifested this entire physical universe.

Speaker 1:

Consciousness is not mind. This is where you need to be aware of the semantic confusion. Consciousness is a relatively recent word in the English dictionary. In the English language as well, the word mind is often used to denote consciousness, especially in older literature. Instead, material objects like, let's just say, a ball right, like a ball, and mental objects, such as a thought of a ball, are both objects within consciousness. So, in an experience, there is the subject, who is the experiencer, and then the object. So we have the object, which is the ball, and then we have the subject, who is thinking of the ball. So what's the nature of this observer or this experiencer?

Speaker 1:

According to monistic idealism, the consciousness of the subject is in a subject, object, experience, the same consciousness that is the grounds of all being. So the thing that is observing is the same thing that is creating this entire physical universe. So, therefore, consciousness is actually unitive and there is only one subject consciousness, and we are all that consciousness, we're all it. There is no separation, there's only one consciousness. So then, why do we feel separate? That's what people ask. So then, if we're all, if we're all one, then how come I feel how come yours were separate.

Speaker 1:

This is what the mystics would refer to as the illusion. If you look in the Hinduism, they refer to it as Maya. If we meditate on the true nature of what we actually are, our self, spirit, consciousness, you will find that all of these, these, these, this illusion, has been going on for ages and times that we found. You'll basically find that, like the ancient teachings were always saying that there was only one consciousness behind all this diversity. So the consciousness, or subject, or self, goes by a bunch of different names. So, like the Hindus refer to it as the Atman, the Christians call it the Holy Spirit, quaker Christians call it the inner light. So this is where physics comes in right, quantum physics.

Speaker 1:

So, basically, let's understand the material world and that, basically, like Isaac Newton, is the reason why we refer or think that everything is separate, because Isaac Newton studied the material world. But when you understand Isaac Newton, isaac Newton knew that there was an unseen force that was dictating the seen forces, but he was only allowed to study the material world because, basically, the spiritual world, the unseen world, the church said we got it. We got it So, which is why, basically, isaac Newton was considered a heretic within the Christian community. So they threw everything out that he was saying on the. That was that this unseen world is actually creating the scene. If we just look at our world now, look at, look at, look at our house, look at our, look at this, look at everything. And it was basically the creation of thought. I'm sitting here on this microphone as somebody had created this, this, this microphone, through their imagination and then took the next step of actually putting together ingredients and ingredients materials to create this microphone. But it first started with a thought. It was the unseen world.

Speaker 1:

So this is where, like people think, the reason why we're so hung up on Newtonian physics, it's because it essentially matches. it matches our, our, our, our belief system of what's we say in God, we trust in church, i mean in school, or like everything. Is this monoistic Idealism? so this is how it started. But the key is realizing, like, how Mysticism and quantum physics are actually like The same thing.

Speaker 1:

The mystics knew quantum physics without knowing it. If you read the Kaiballion, if you read the hermetica, hermes, trismegistus, if you read these teachings, it's quantum physics, one-on-one Jesus. Jesus was talking on a quantum level. He was teaching quantum physics, but you'd have to know quantum physics to know that he was teaching it. But because we don't get taught quantum physics, We only get taught Newtonian physics, we think he was just saying stuff and you have to purely just believe. No, when you actually understand how things work on a quantum level, it makes perfect sense. What are you saying? So now his teachings hit just a little bit differently. So until the present interpretation of these new physics, of quantum physics, until we understand it, the word transcendence was seldom mentioned in the vocabulary of physics, the, actually, the word transcendent was considered her like. Only the heretics use that word. So physicists?

Speaker 1:

Alan aspect did an experiment that showed when two quantum objects are correlated, if we measure one, thus Collapsing the wave into a particle, the others wave function is instantly collapsed as well, even at a macroscopic distance, macroscopic distance, even when there is no signal in space and time to mediate their connection. Einstein proved that all connections and interactions in the physical world must be mediated by signals traveling through space. This is the locality principle, and thus must be limited by the speed of light. So then the question of where does this instantaneous connection between the two? where does cool with quantum objects? What is responsible for this? And here's the answer It's the transcendent domain of reality. This is what we call non locality.

Speaker 1:

So this is why when something we hear like like The CIA did this experiment called the Gateway Project where they could see if they could spy on people in other world, it's because your consciousness is non local, it's everywhere, it's not just here. So we have something called astral projection. When you go, what else? when you go into, like you have a dream. This is you essentially Moving to other places of train of consciousness, because consciousness is everywhere. There's nowhere that it's not. So My point of this is is getting to you understand why you don't know what you know and why there seems to be a separation between the two. And now that we know this, we can start to see how religion, of what it was actually trying to show you, but what were it failed and why we're we don't get it. Now we think that all three are different.

Speaker 1:

Okay, so I try thinking of say this to you. So your life is basically just a. It's a spiritual opportunity for consciousness to evolve and reach and ascend to this level of And what we call enlightenment, but essentially recognizing that nothing is separate. So when you start thinking of life as that. It's a spiritual endeavor in and of itself. It's the expression of itself through itself. So there is no, there is no separation between you and I. You and I are still just the one thing.

Speaker 1:

This is what Walter Russell in 1926, when he wrote the book called the universal one. He referred to everything as being the one substance. Everything is the one thing and has all these different minds, but that's all it is. We are all just the same thing. When you recognize that, now you can start to live from the place of the non-ego, which non-duality, which basically created your suffering. This was what created it. So I say this to you Here's what I did.

Speaker 1:

I was, i was, i was heavily involved man, i was in the Christian world. I actually just did something last week and I promised myself I wouldn't. And here's why I wouldn't do it anymore, because here's why I Found the limitations. I saw, when you see what you actually are. You are, you are consciousness, you are everywhere, you are everything. There's nothing that you could not be or do. But we Place confines on ourselves. So we fit within the framework of this, of whatever the structure is, but you are infinite.

Speaker 1:

You were never this, why we say you had to think outside the box. You had to think outside the box because you were bigger than the box and that's why you may feel frustration, you may feel anger, you feel resentment towards a specific group or their beliefs or their teachings. That's just the ego Trying to. You're staying inside of a box, that you're actually bigger than. Just because you're bigger than it doesn't mean you're. You're more than it, do you see?

Speaker 1:

so this is what we have to understand by this figure the physical universe. This universe is Not just Observable, it is participatory. You are the universe, it is you, it is you. This is why, like, like, oh, we manifest. That's why you literally manifest things. Because you're it, you are it. But you had to recognize what. The you were us, the you was not you. The physical body, that's not you. So that's why, when I say stuff, you're like how, explain to me how we're all one? It's because you thought you were Dagon body, you thought you were your thoughts. You ain't none of those things. You're not. That's why you can't grasp it, because the ego keeps you in this perpetual cycle cycle of the three-dimensional plane. You had to get to the 5d. When you recognize that, then you'll see that, oh my goodness, we're all one. We're all the same thing. We're all the same thing. We are literally consciousness experiencing itself in this avatar, in this game. So maybe I probably did a terrible job of breaking this down for you, but If you don't know what quantum physics is, i'm just gonna show you, i'm gonna tell you what it is. Okay, i'm just gonna, i'm just gonna go through this. Okay, there's something that we need to understand The double split experiment.

Speaker 1:

In this experiment, basically, a beam of electrons has passed through a screen that has two narrow slits in it. Since electrons are waves, the beam of split this. The beam is split into two sets of waves by the two slitted screen. These waves then interfere with anyone on one another and the result of the interference shows up on the fluorescence Forested screen. So a imagine throwing a puddle, mean a pebble and puddle, and it creates these ripples, and these ripples bounce into each other, because I threw another rock into the water and now it creates this, like these ripples, boom, boom, like All these ripples, and it hits this board and you see all of these ripples. It's not just. I Can't visually show you, i'm trying to describe it, it just be like lines all over the place.

Speaker 1:

Okay, so for an evening, here's here's. Here's basically the Breakdown of what the double split experiment is. If you're not familiar with this, like standing a bathtub, fill a wall. Fill the bathtub with water, make two water wave. Transits by trains. By rhythmically marching in place, the waves will make an interference pattern. At some points They will reinforce each other, at other points They will cause mutual destruction. This is the interference pattern. So, similarly, there are places on the fluorescent screen, when they did this experiment, where the electron waves Form the two slits arrive in phase, matching their dance steps. At these places, their amplitude of their frequency And the total wave is reinforced. In between these bright spots, there are places where the two waves arrive out of phase and cancel each other out. The result of this constructive and destructive Interference then shows on the fluorescent screen as a pattern of alternating bright and dark fringes, hence an interference pattern. So remember, though, that these electron waves are probability waves, meaning they could be anything.

Speaker 1:

So the question asked What if there is only one electron field? Sorry, what if there's only one electron fired? Can it split itself and behave as a particle passing through both splits? quantum mechanics says yes. Imagine electron passing 50 percent through one slit and then 50 percent through the other slit. Is this electron really passing through both slits at the same time? You can find out by looking.

Speaker 1:

This is what we call the observer effect. So when we watch and see the electron passing through a particular slit, we look to see where the flash appears on the fluorescent fluorescent screen. What we find is that every time an electron goes through a slit it flashes. Sorry, the flash appears just behind the slit that it passes through. The interference pattern has now disappeared. So what's happening in this experiment can be understood in the first place as a play of the uncertainty principle. As soon as we locate the electron and determine which slit it passes through, we lose information about the electrons momentum. The uncertainty principle says that as soon as we determine which slit the electron is passing through, the process of looking destroys the interference pattern. So it's based upon the observer.

Speaker 1:

The complementarity principle states that quantum objects are both wave and particle, but that we can only see the one attribute with the particular experimental arrangement is certainly correct, but our experience is teaching us some subtleties. So here's the whole point. Okay, so here's an example of it. We may also say that the electron is neither a wave, because the wave aspect never manifests for a single electron, nor is it a particle, because it appears at the screen at places that there's an interference pattern. So we must admit that the photon of light, also called energy, is neither a wave nor a particle, and this is much to the logic of the Buddhist tradition of the neti Not this, not that. And it goes like this It does not exist, it does not not exist. It does not both exist and not exist, nor does it neither exist nor not exist. This is from the Buddhist teachings. So, basically, the wave function of a quantum object is transcended, since we never see it manifest.

Speaker 1:

So, as physicist Niels Bohr once said, those who are not shocked when they first come across quantum theory cannot possibly understand it. So the key is to understand that the all consciousness is inside of everything and it's fully aware and it behaves based on what is observing it, just like your life. Your life is merely just a reflection of how you observe it. The observation is taking place on the inside, which is why life has to mirror it. So when you localize the electron, by finding out which slit it goes through we reveal its particle aspect. That's when it materializes itself into what we call matter. So what attribute is the quantum wave or quantum particle? What it reveals depends on how it is observed. Do you see? So physicist John Wheeler, who just won a Nobel Peace Prize for this, here about two, three months ago, he says yes, nature at the quantum level is not a machine that goes in an inexorable way. Instead, what answer we get depends on the question we put, the experiment we arrange and the registering device we choose. We are inescapably involved in bringing about which appears to happen. Let me say that one more time for the people in back We are inescapably involved in bringing about that which appears to be happening. I could probably stop right there and be done. I could probably stop right there and be done.

Speaker 1:

The long and the short of quantum physics to understand, you must give up the idea that there is a fixed and independent material world that is not contingent on the observer. Even though we are not actually observing the quantum world, you cannot physically see it. So ultimately it boils down to what you, the observer, want to see. This is why, episodes ago, when I did the episode about life is a mirror, this is you, quantum on the quantum realm, breaking it down, the wave into a particle, so you could be and do anything that you desired. It's literally the same thing. So when you observe yourself on the inner world as you are, that is the quantum world, and the quantum world was what dictated the material world. So if I want to be a millionaire, all I had to do was collapse those waves through thought, emotion and action and being a millionaire internally, and then it would collapse itself in the material world and there were infinite possibilities, because the waves were pure potentiality of how it would transpire and manifest itself. So now that's the quantum world.

Speaker 1:

When you understand this Mark 11, 24, it hits a little differently when you read and Jesus says whatever you asked for in prayer, prayer was just you, prayer was an intentional thought, prayer was prayer. Was you essentially observing what you wanted to see? Dear God, please help me? That was you centralizing how you wanted the waves to collapse? and when you observe that, and then you believe that it had already happened, because on the quantum level, the only thing that exists is the present moment, infinitely. All I had to do was be that, and when I was that in the present moment, it would have to show itself.

Speaker 1:

How do you think Jesus healed people? How do you think he healed people? You can heal yourself. You can heal other people, because everything is the one thing. There's nothing that's not. There is nothing that is not. There is nothing that is not. It literally everything. So when people say, oh God, god is everything. There's nothing that God isn't. God is everything because God was this one substance, this one energy, this one force, this one thing called consciousness. That was everywhere. There was no. How do you Like? I hope I'm breaking this down, i hope I'm connecting the parallels for you to see that, like there was no separation between any of these things, there was no.

Speaker 1:

Spirituality came first, religion came second, and then science is only telling what spirituality is already. Do you see? Do you see? So here's what's changed. My relationship with God has changed drastically. I stopped thinking of God as being something foreign, or this man with a beard who's sitting on a cloud touching Adam's finger, who has supreme, supreme dominion over everything. And now I realize that there's nothing that isn't God. And this is what we were supposed to do. We were supposed to see God in everything. I was supposed to see God in myself. I was supposed to see God in you. I was supposed to see God in the tree. I was supposed to see God in the blade of grass. I was supposed to see God in the beggar. I was supposed to see God in the spirit, in the murderer. I was supposed to see God in the water. I was supposed to see God in every single thing, because every single thing was it.

Speaker 1:

And this is what we call oneness. And I, actually, when I say God, i'm not speaking of it from a religion that I learned in a book. When I say God, i always make sure that I don't say it anymore in a. I don't use a pronoun, i don't say He anymore, i say it, dc It. And the other reason why I do that is so I can better understand and break through, because, you know, i say, well, if I say He, then now it's outside of me, but I say it. It is everywhere. There's nowhere that it's not. And this is what oneness was. This is what this is all. We're on a journey. We're all in a journey to remember, to remember, to remember. I and the Father are one. I and the Father are one. You had to know who the. I was The. I was not the avatar named Jesus. The I was you, it was I, it was me. We were all it I. So every time you say I, i know who's saying that It was consciousness. It was consciousness.

Speaker 1:

And you started looking at all the ancient teachings. They were all saying this. They were all saying this Everything is energy. There's nothing that's not energy. We just throw the word energy around, but we don't even know what it is. Every time you say energy, you know what you're talking about. You're talking about God. You're talking about everything. You're talking about spirit. You're talking about consciousness. So that's why you had to protect your energy. You had to guard that. You had to guard it. Protecting which life? because it was your life force. So these are just some of the few teachings That I'm remembering on this journey to remember So I can help you along your journey. I hope this helped. I hope this helped.

Speaker 1:

I had it in my mind of how I would have to do it, but it maybe. I don't know if it came out the way I wanted. It's okay, though. It's okay. Continue on, find your way. Know that your way is your way. We're all the same thing on different paths. We're all in different paths right now, but we're all leading to the same place, no matter what it may look like. If you have a means, you got to go down this road or go back.

Speaker 1:

That's why I study a little bit of everything now. I study every. I study everything Hinduism, buddhism, taoism, christianity, all of it Because I know that they're all just one perspective. They're just sorry, they're just individual perspectives of the one truth. Now that I know the absolute truth, now I know that what is, and I had to, i had to go, i had to get out of religion to go into spirituality, and then I had to get out of spirituality to go into science. And now I've gotten three sides of it. Oh wait, is this the Trinity? Notice how everything is always in three is the father, the son and the Holy Spirit, spirit, mind and body. Do you see? It's just different perspectives of the one truth. Now that I know the one truth, now these three perspectives all hit differently, you see, and within each perspective there was going to be multiple perspectives.

Speaker 1:

So I say that because how I got here was just my path, in my way. I cannot tell you how to do, how to follow your own. You have to follow your own, but just make the make, the process. And here's how you do it. You start by asking questions. There's nothing wrong with asking questions. This contemplative exercise of you asking questions is how you're going to find your way And when you get on your path good God Almighty, you'll know when you're on it. You'll know when you're on it and it will be so worth it, because there's nothing more worth in this incarnation than you remembering what you truly were before you forgot. Until next time, i wish you nothing but the best on the pathway to your results.
