Quantum physics and personal achievement. Part 2

Let’s begin with the idea of quantum physics: what is it and how has it changed our understanding of the world.

I won’t use a lot of scientific jargon. That would bore both of us. Instead, do me a favor, take a look at yourself. What are you made of? Molecules, you might say. Well, what are molecules made of?

Atoms. What are atoms made of?     

Sub-atomic particles.

What are sub-atomic particles made of?   Energy!  In fact, if you could see yourself under a powerful electron microscope, you would see that you are made up of a cluster of ever-changing energy in the form of Photons, Leptons, Electrons, Neutrons, Quarks, etc.

Here is what quantum physicists tell us:

Until 1925 it was believed that all things just happened as a result of gravity. This belief was called Newtonian Physics.  Newtonian Physics was derived from Issac Newton's theory based on the late 17th century idea that the Universe was made up of what was believed at the time to be solid objects (atoms) which were attracted towards each other by gravity. This theory was extended in the 19th century to include the structures of atoms as being the fundamental building blocks of nature. According to Newtonian Physics it was believed that atoms were of a solid nature.

What Einstein's world changing discovery of 1925 (E=MC2) would prove was that these atoms could be broken down and analyzed further and that the subatomic particles which collectively formed the atoms were pure energy. Further research by Thomas Young and Niels Bohr was to show that energy could exist as both waves or particles.

Now it gets really exciting! To put it another way, ANYTHING and EVERYTHING which exists in the entire cosmos, when broken down and analyzed into it's purest and most basic form, is merely a vibrating frequency of energy which joins together with energies of the same harmonious frequency to form what we "perceive" to be reality and as a result determines what we experience in the physical world. In other words, matter is merely energy slowed down. You see the tree -you do not see the subatomic particles that make up the tree.

Stick with me- just a little bit further!!

Energy and matter are not only related, they can be transformed back and forth into each other. Enter the world of Quantum physics: the study of how the world works on the smallest scale. Amazingly, the deeper scientists went into ‘reality’ the more it seemed to dissolve from their view. The search for the smallest known particles of matter had revealed, instead, the smallest packets of energy, which Physicists now call Quanta. Everything around us, and we ourselves, are made up of vibrating packets of energy.

Research shows that the tiny packets of energy, 'quanta’, exhibit strange behaviors, including the ability to influence one another, a property called ENTANGLEMENT.

Think I’m making this up?  Cleve Baxter a former CIA and US Army scientist has performed several experiments in which he has developed DNA cultures from several individuals, hooked up sophisticated equipment, and discovered that the DNA responded and reacted immediately to the emotions of the man who it was taken from without ANY regard to space and time!

Follow this fascinating experiment: Cleve Baxter, “We took white cell samples, then sent the people home to watch television. I would have pre-selected a program that would elicit an emotional response from them--for example, showing a veteran of Pearl Harbor a documentary of West Pacific enemy aircraft attacks--and then I taped both the program and the response of their cells. What we found was that cells outside the body still react to the emotions you feel, even though you may be miles away. The greatest distance we've tested has been about three hundred miles.“

You've read this far. Now, take a moment, then read it again. The property of quanta, known as ENTANGLEMENT, will be explored further in part 3.
