Time and Quantum Physics

Time

Time does not exist. Albert Einstein proved to us that time is an illusion, no matter how persistent it is. You can and actually do expand and shrink it all the time, again by your thought and consciousness. The only 'time' that exists is an eternal moment of Now. You can only Be Here, Now. You have never been anywhere else. Your mind tricks you that you were somewhere yesterday and will be somewhere tomorrow. But if you look carefully, you will see you cannot Be anywhere else other than here, now. Be-ing is of this moment only. You don't believe it? well, try to be tomorrow! Even 'tomorrow' must come to you Here, Now. So what is time? Well, imagine the picture of the Mona Lisa. You can see it all at one go, right? Well, imagine that your eyes were only capable of seeing it a slice at a time. It would then take you 'time' to go through the whole picture. Your mind would trick you into thinking that you are experiencing some of the Mona Lisa painting today, some yesterday, some tomorrow. Yet the whole Mona Lisa exists all at one go. In the same way, time is your limited consciousness experiencing slices of infinity and eternity - all possibilities of existence. You choose which slices to experience by your thoughts, states of being, and beliefs.  

I read somewhere that time is a man made contrivance to organize human activity, nothing more. The past and future do not exist except in our imaginations and Einstein's theory of relativity had to do with proving this.  Isn't this great?  For a really good explanation of relativity, try to find an old book called The Universe and Dr. Einstein.  It's concise and easy to understand even for those with no background in physics.

Quantum Physics

Knowing what you and the world are made of is the first key to knowing how to make it your way. Quantum Physics begins to explain how everything in your world comes to be. You are in direct manipulation of your entire physical world, but you may not be aware of this fact. And your lack of awareness of this fact, how the physical matter comes about and your role in it, makes your life appear to you as an occurrence that is out of your control. 

Quantum physics is the study of the building blocks of the universe. For example, your body is made up of cells. These cells are in turn made up of molecules, which are made up of atoms, which are in turn made up of sub-atomic particles such as electrons. Everything is made up of 'large groups' of sub- atomic particles, also called energy.

Your body, a tree, thoughts, a vehicle, a planet, light, and everything else are 'concentrations' of energy. All of them are large collections of pretty much the same types of sub-atomic particles. The only difference is in the way these particles are grouped together into ever-larger building blocks. To speak correctly, a sub- atomic particle is not really a particle in the way that a grain of sand is a particle. They are 'probabilities of existence' and at the same time 'multiple existences'. They are also wave-like and particle-like at the same time.

Everything in this universe is made up of energy, and these energy packets behave in the most amazing way! They are at our command! The reason they would arrange themselves into a luxury boat, for example, is our individual and collective thoughts. Up until this point, you may have been designing your world haphazardly and unconsciously. Your very thinking, each thought, shifts the universe to an extent.
