LIGHT IN THE DARKNESS

"Subatomic particles had no meaning as isolated entities but could only be understood in their relationships. The world; at its most basic, existed as a complex web of interdependent relationships, forever indivisible.
Perhaps the most essential ingredient of this inter­connected universe was the living consciousness that observed it. In classical physics, the experimenter was considerered a separate entity, a silent observer behind glass, attempting to understand a universe that carried on, whether he or she was observing it or not. In quantum physics, however, it was, discovered, the state of all possibilities of any quantum particle collapsed into a set entity as soon as it was observed or a measurement taken. To explain these strange events, quantum physicists had postulated that a participatory relationship existed between observer and-observed - these particles could only be considered as 'probably' existing in space and time until they were 'perturbed', and the act of observing 'and measuring them forced them into a set state - an act akin to solidifying jelly. This astounding observation also had shattering implications about the nature of reality. It suggested that the consciousnessof the observer brought the observed object intb being. Nothing in the universe existed as an actual 'thing' independently of our perception of it. Every minute of every day we were creating our world."

THE

FIELD

THE QUEST FOR THE SECRET FORCE OF THE UNIVERSE

Lynne McTaggart 2001

LIGHT IN THE DARKNESS

PROLOGUE

The Coming Revolution

"WE ARE POISED ON THE brink of a revolution - a revolution as daring.and profound as Einstein's discovery of relativity; At the very frontier of science new ideas are emerging that challenge everything we believe about how our world works and how we define ourselves. Discoveries are being made that prove what religion has always espoused: that human beings are far more extraordinary than an assemblage of flesh and bones. At its most fundamental, this new science answers questions that have perplexed scientists for hundreds of years. At its.most profound, this is a science of the miraculous.
For a number of decades respected scientists in a variety of disciplines all over the world have been carrying out well­designed ex:periments whose results fly in the face of current, biology and physics together, these studies offer us copious information about the central organizing force governing our bodies and the rest of the cosmos.
What they have discovered is nothing less than astonishing. At our most elemental, we are not a chemical reaction, but an energetic charge. Human beings and all living things are a coalescence of energy in a field of energy connected to every other thing in the world. This pulsating energy field is the / Page XVI / central engine of our being and our consciousness, the alpha and the Omega of our existence.

There is no 'me' and 'not-me' duality to our bodies in relation to the universe, but one underlying energy field. This field is responsible'for our mind's highest functions, the information source guiding the growth of our bodies. It is our brain, our heart, our memory - indeed, a blueprint of the world for all time. The field is the force, rather than germs or genes, that finally determines whether we are healthy or ill, the force which must be tapped in order to heal. We are attached and engaged, indivisible from our world, and our only fundamental truth is our relationship with it, 'The field,' as Einstein once succinctly put it, 'is the only reality.'1 Up until the present, biology and physics have been hand­maidens of views espoused by Isaac Newton, the father of modern physics. Everything we. believe about our world and our place within it takes ts lead from ideas that were formulated in the seventeenth century, but still form the backbone of modern science - theories that present all the elements of the universe are isolated from each other, divisible and wholly self-contained.
These, at their essence, created a world view of separateness. Newton described a material world in which individual particles of matter followed certain laws of motion through space and time - the universe asmachine. Before Newton formulated his laws of motion; French philosopher Rene Descartes had come up with what was then a revolutionary notion, that we - represented by our minds - were separate from this lifeless inert matter of our bodies, which were just another type of well-oiled machine. The world was composed / Page XVII / of a load of little discrete objects, which behaved predictably. The most separate of these was the human being. We sat out­side this universe, looking in. Even our bodies were somehow separate and other from the real us, the conscious minds doing the observing.
The Newtonian world might have been law-abiding, but ultimately it was a lonely, desolate place. The world carried on, one vast gearbox, whether we were present or not. With.a few deft moves, Newton and Descartes had plucked God and life from the world of matter, and us and our. consciousness from the centre of our world. They ripped the heart and soul out of the universe; leaving in its wake a lifeless collection of interlocking parts. Most important of all, as Danah Zohar observed in The Quantum Self, 'Newton's Vision tore us out from the fabric of the universe.'2
Our self-image grew even bleaker with the work of Charles Darwin. His theory of evolution - tweaked slightly now by the neo - Darwinists - is of a life that is random, predatory, purposeless and soiltary. Be the best or don't survive. You are no more than an evolutionary accident. The vast checkerboard biological heritage of your ancestors is stripped down to one central facet: survival. Eat or be eaten. The, essence of your humanity is a genetic terrorist, efficiently disposing of any weaker links. Life is not about sharing and interdependence. Life is about winning; getting there first. And if you do manage to survive, you are on your own at the top of the evolutionary tree.
These paradigms - the world as machine, man as survival machine - have led to a technological mastery of the universe, but little real knowledge of any central importance to us. On a / Page XVIII / spiritual and metaphysical level they have led to the most desperate and brutal sense of isolation. They also have got us no closer to understanding the most fundamental mysteries of our own being: how we think, how life begins, why we get ill, how a single cell turns into a fully formed person, and even what happens to liuman consciousness when we die.
We remain reluctant apostles of these views of the world as mechanised and separate, even if this isn't part of our ordinary
experience. Many of us seek refuge from what we see as the harsh and nihilistic fact of our existence in religion, which may offer some succour in its ideals of unity, community and purpose, but through a view of the world that contradicts the view espoused by science. Anyone seeking a spiritual life has had to wrestle with these opposing world views and fruitlessly try to reconcile the two.
This world of the separate should have been laid waste once and for all by the discovery of quantum physics in the early part of the twentieth century. As the pioneers of quantum physics peered into the very heart of matter, they were astounded by what they saw. The tiniest bits of mattcr weren't even matter, as we know it, not even a set something, but sometimes one thing, sometimes something quite different. And even stranger, they were often many possible things all at the same time. But most significantly, these subatomic particles had no meaning in isolation, but only in relationship with everything else. At its most elemental, matter couldn't be chopped up into sclf-contained little units, but was completely indivisible. You could only understand the universe as a dynamic web of interconnection. Things once in contact remained always in contact through all space and all time.

Indeed, time and space themselves appeared to be arbitrary constructs, no longer applicable at this level of the world. Time and space as we know them did not, in fact, exist. All thas appeared, as far as the eye could see, was one long landscape of the here and now.
The pioneers of quantum physics - Erwin Schrodirlger, Werner Heisenberg, Niels Bohr anid WolfgangPauli. - had some inkling of the metaphysical territory they had trespassed into. If electrons were connected everywhere at once, this implied something profound about the nature of the world at large. They turned to classic philosophical texts in .their attempt to grasp the deeper truth about the strange subatomic world they were observing. Pauli examined psychoanalysis and archetypes and the Qabbalah; Bohr, the Tao and Chinese philosophy; Schrodinger, Hindu philosophy;and, Heisenberg, the Platonic theory of ancient-Greece.3 Nevertheless, a coherent theory of the spiritual implications of quantum physics remained beyond their grasp. Niels Bohr hung .a sign on his door saying 'Philosophers keep out. Work in progress.'

There was other quite practical, unfinished business with quantum theory Bohr and his colleagues only got so far in their experiments and understanding. The experiments they'd conducted demonstrating these quantum effects had occurred in the laboratory, with non-living subatomic particles. From there, scientists in. their wake naturally assumed that this strange quantum world only existed in the world of-dead matter. Anything, alive still operated according to the laws of Newton and Descartes, a view that has informed all of modern medicine, and biology. Even biochemistry depends- upon Newtonian force and collision to work.

Page XX

And what of us? Suddenly, we had grown central to every physical process, but no one had fully acknowledged,this. The quantum pioneers had discovered that our involvement with matter was crucial. Subatomic particles existed in all possible states until disturbed by us by observing or measuring - at which point, they'd settle down, at long last, into something real. Our observation - our human consciousness - was utterly central to this process of subatomic flux actually becoming some set thing, but we weren't in any of the mathematics of Heisenberg or Schrodinger. They realized that we were some­how key, but they didn't know how to include us: As far as science was concerned; we were still on the outside looking in.
All the loose strands of quantum physics were never tied up into a coherent theory, and quantum physics got reduced to an extremely successful tool of technology, vital for making bombs and,modern electronics. The philosophical implications were forgotten, and all that remained were its practical advantages. The rank and file of today's physicists were willing to accept the bizarre nature of the quantum world at face value because the mathematics, such as the Schrodinger equation, works so well, but shook their heads at the counter­intuitiveness of it all.4 How could electrons be in touch with everything at once?
How could an electron not be a set single thing until it is examined or measured? How, in fact, could anything be concrete in the world, if it was a will o' the wisp once you started looking closer at it?
Their answer was to say that there was a single truth for anything small and another truth for something much bigger, one truth for things that were alive, another for things that weren't, and to accept these apparent contradictions just as / Page XXI / one might accept a basic axiom of Newton's. These were the rules of thhe world and they should just be taken at face value.
Tne maths works, and that's all that.counts.
.
A small band of scientists dotted around the globe was not satisfied to simply carry on with quantum physics by rote. They required a better answer to many of the large questions that had been left unanswered. In their investigations and experimentation, they picked up where the pioneers of quantum physics had left off, and they began probing deeper.
Several thought again about a few equations that had always been subtracted out in quantum .physics. These equations.stood for the Zero Point Field - an ocean of microcopic vibrations in the space between things. If the Zero point Field were included in our conception of the most fundamental nature of matter they realized, the very underpinning of our universe was.a heaving sea of energy - one vast quantum field. If this were true, everything would be connected to everything else like some invisible web.
They also discovered.that we were made of the same basic material. On our most fundamental level, living beings, includ­ing human beings, were packets of quantum energy constantly exchanging information with this inexhaustible energy sea. Living things emitted a weak radiation, and this was the most crucial aspect of biological processes. Information about all aspects of life, from cellular communication to the vast array of controls of DNA, was relayed through an information exchange on the quantum level. Even our. minds, that other supposedly so outside of the laws of matter, operated according to quantum processes. Thinking, feeling - every higher cognitive / Page XXII / function - had to do with quantum information pulsing simultaneously through our brains and body. Human perception occurred because of interactions between the subatomic particlesof our brains and the quantum energy sea. We literally resonated with our world.
Their discoveries were extraordinary and heretical. In a stroke, they had challenged many of the most basic laws of biolgy and physics; What they may have uncovered was no less than the key to all information processing and exchange in our world, from the communication between cells to perception of the world at large. They'd come up with answers to some of the most profound questions in biology about human morphology and living consciousness. Here, in so-called 'dead' space, possibly the very key to life-itself.
Most fundamentally, they had provided evidence that all of us connect with each other and the world at the very undercoat of our being. Through scientific experiment they'd demonstrated that there may be such a thing as a life force flowing through the universe - what has variously been called collectiveconsciousness or, as theologians have termed it, the Holy Spirit. They provided a plausible explanation of all those areas that over the centuries mankind has had faith in but no solid evidence of or adequate accounting for, from the effectiveness of alternative medicine and even prayer to life after death. They offered us, in a sense, a science of religion.
Unlike the world viewof Newton or Darwin, theirs was a vision that was life-enhancing. These were ideas that could empower us, with their implications of order and control. We were not simply accidents of nature. There was purpose and unity to our world and our place within it, and we had an / Page XXIII / important say in it. What we did and thought mattered ­ indeed, was critical in creating our world. Human beings were no longer separate from each other. It was no longer us and them. We were no longer at the periphery of our universe - on the outside looking in. We could take our rightful place, back in the centre of our world.

These ideas were the stuff of treason. In many cases, these scientists have had to fight a rearguard action against an entrenched and hostile establishment. Their investigations have gone on for thirty years, largely unacknowledged or suppressed, but not because of the quality of the work.The scientists, all from credible top-ranking institutions ­ Princeton University, Stanford Uriiversity, top institutions in Germany and France - have produced impeccable experimentation. Nevertheless, their experiments have attacked a number of tenets held to be sacred and at the very heart of modern science. They did not fit the prevailing scientific view of the, world,- the world as machine. Acknowledging these new ideas would require scrapping much of what modern science, believes in and, in a sense, starting, over from scratch.
'The old guard was having none of it. It did not fit the world view and so it must be wrong.

Nevertheless it is too late. The revolution is unstoppable. The scientists who have been highlighted in The Field are merely a few of the pioneers, a small representation of a larger movement.5 Many others are right behind them, challenging, experimenting, modifying their views, engaged in the work that all true explorers engage in. Rather than dismissing this information as not fitting in with the scientific view of the world, / Page XXIV / orthodox science will have to begin adapting its world view to suit. It is tlme to relegate Newton and Descartes to their proper places, as prophets of' a historical view that has now been surpassed. Science can orily be a process of understanding our world and ourselves, rather than a fixed set of rules for all time, and with the ushering in of the new, the old must often be discarded."

SHAMANIC WISDOM IN THE PYRAMID TEXTS

THE MYSTICAL TRADITION OF ANCIENT EGYPT

Jeremy Naydler 2005

THE SHAMANIC ROOTS OF THE PYRAMID TEXTS


UTTERANCE 301: CROSSING TO THE FATHER GOD

Page 298

From the Antechamber to the Entrance Corridor

"The much longer utterance 301 begins with Unas presenting a series of food offerings to the creator gods of Hermopolis and Heliopolis. These are the deepest gods-Nun and Naunet (the primeval waters), Amun and Amaunet (the hidden ones), Atum (the complete) and the double-lion god Ruti, identified as Shu and Tefnut. They are (excepting Shu and Tefnut) the gods behind the gods, the nonmanifest primeval sources of the gods, the self-generating sources of divinity itself.39 Unas addresses each pair and propitiates them with offerings so that they will not obstruct him in his "crossing" to their "father." These deepest gods are not yet the very deep­est, for they have a father. And Unas intends to cross over to the father, as it were, from one spiritual plane to another, at the Akhet. Finally he declares that he knows the name of their "father"-and declares it to be "the eternal" (neht). He also identifies the father god as "Horus who is over the stars of the sky, who brings Ra to life every day." This Horus, then, is a supercelestial power greater even than Ra. Just as He re-creates Ra each day, so He recreates the king and "brings the king to life every day."4O The first part of this utterance, therefore, takes us beyond even the sources of the gods to the source of the sources-the eternal father god, to whom the king acknowledges the daily renewal of his own life.
The second part of the utterance is another offering ritual in which the king presents the healed left eye of Horus (in the form of unguent) to three forms of the sun god, each of which is addressed as a Horus, and each of which is probably related to the rising sun.41 We could understand the rising sun to be rising out of the matrix of the deep, nonmanifest gods of the first part of the utterance.
Then in the third and final part of the utterance, there is a prayer (probably recited by Unas) to the rising sun.

Arise, O great reed float,
like
Wepwawet [Opener of the Ways], filled with your spiritual power (akh), come forth from the Akhet.42

Coming forth from the Akhet as an akh is something that Unas aspires to, and that the sun god accomplishes each day. Ra thereby "opens the way" for Unas-as Horus-to make the same journey. The idea of Unas being embarked upon a journey of spiritual transformation is indicated both in the reference to the jackal god, Wepwawet, in the quotation above and at the end of the utterance where we read of the king being purified in the Jackal Lake where the gods are purified. It is there, in the Jackal Lake, that Unas is made "bright," and at the end of the text Unas is hailed as "powerful" (ba) and "sharp" (seped). The meaning of seped, which is written with the determinative of a knife, could perhaps be to do with the king's inner refinement.43
There is little in utterance 301 to suggest that it is a funerary text. The episodes that it describes seem to require the king to be alive, for otherwise it is difficult to see how he could present bread offerings to the primeval gods at the beginning of the utterance and unguent to the three Horus­forms of the sun god later. These are clearly rituals performed by the living king. But the text is also describing levels of mystical knowledge that Unas is demonstrating. The king knows the secret name of the father god who is deeper even than the source gods, and he knows that this god is the life energy within both Ra and himself. Thus the way is opened for the king to undergo spiritual transformation in the Jackal Lake, where he is made bright, powerful, and sharp. While there is little to suggest that utterance 301 is a funerary text, its mystical content would appear to be undeniable.

DOES GOD PLAY DICE

THE NEW MATHEMATICS OF CHAOS

Ian Stewart 1989

Prologue

Page 1

Clockwork or Chaos?

"YOU BELIEVE IN A GOD WHO PLAYS DICE, AND I IN COMPLETE LAW AND ORDER."

Albert Einstein, Letter to Max Born

"There is a theory that history moves in cycles. But, like a spiral staircase, when the course of human events comes full circle it does so on a new level. The 'pendulum swing' of cultural changes does not simply repeat the same events over and over again. Whether or not the theory is true, it serves as a metaphor to focus our attention. The topic of this book represents one such spiral cycle: chaos gives way to order, which in turn gives rise to new forms of chaos. But on this swing of the pendulum, we seek not to destroy chaos, but to tame it.
In the distant past of our race, nature was considered a capricious creature, and the absence of pattern in the natural world was ascribed to the whims of the powerful and incomprehensible deities who ruled it. Chaos reigned and law was unimaginable.
Over a period of several thousand years, humankind slowly came to realize that nature has many regularities, which can be recorded, analysed, predicted, and exploited. By the 18th century science had been so successful in laying bare the laws of nature that many thought there was little left to discover. Immutable laws prescribed the motion of every particle in the universe, exactly and forever: the task of the scientist was to elucidate the implications of those laws for any particular phenomenon of interest. Chaos gave way to a clockwork world.
But the world moved on, and our vision of the universe moved with it. Today even our clocks are not made of clockwork - so why should our world be? With the advent of quantum mechanics, the clockwork world has become a cosmic lottery. Fundamental events, / Page 2 / such as the decay of a radioactive atom, are held to be determined by chance, not law. Despite the spectacular success of quantum mechanics, its probabilistic features have not appealed to everyone. Albert Einstein's famous objection, in a letter to Max Born, is quoted at the head of this chapter. Einstein was talking of quantum mechanics, but his philosophy also captures the attitude of an entire age to classical mechanics, where quantum indeterminacy is inoperative. The metaphor of dice for chance applies across the board. Does determinacy leave room for chance?
Whether Einstein was right about quantum mechanics remains to be seen. But we do know that the world of classical mechanics is more mysterious than even Einstein imagined. The very distinction he was trying to emphasize, between the randomness of chance and the determinism of law, is called into question. Perhaps God can play dice, and create a universe of complete law and order, in the same breath.
The cycle has come full turn - but at a higher level. For we are beginning to discover that systems obeying immutable and precise laws do not always act in predictable and regular ways. Simple laws may not produce simple behaviour. Deterministic laws can produce behaviour that appears random. Order can breed its own kind of chaos. The question is not so much whether God plays dice, but how God plays dice.
This is a dramatic discovery, whose implications have yet to make their full impact on our scientific thinking. The notions of prediction, or of a repeatable experiment, take on new aspects when seen through the eyes of chaos. What we thought was simple becomes complicated, and disturbing new questions are raised regarding measurement, predictability, and verification or falsification of theories.
In compensation, what was thought to be complicated may become simple. Phenomena that appear structureless and random may in fact be obeying simple laws. Deterministic chaos has its own laws, and inspires new experimental techniques. There is no shortage of irregularities in nature, and some of them may prove to be physical manifestations of the mathematics of chaos. Turbulent flow of fluids, reversals of the Earth's magnetic field, irregularities of the heartbeat, the convection patterns of liquid helium, the tumbling of celestial bodies, gaps in the asteroid belt, the growth of insect populations, the dripping of a tap, the progress of a chemical reaction, the metabolism of cells, changes in the weather, the propagation of nerve impulses, oscillations of electronic circuits, the motion of a ship moored to a buoy, the bouncing of a billiard ball, / Page 3 / the collisions of atoms in a gas, the underlying uncertainty of quantum mechanics - these are a few of the problems to which the mathematics of chaos has been applied.
It is an entire new world, a new kind of mathematics, a fundamental breakthrough in the understanding of irregularities in nature. We are witnessing its birth.
Its future has yet to unfold."
