Where Science and the Esoteric Meet: Quantum Physics

Where Science and the Esoteric Meet: Quantum Physics

In the 1900’s when Max Planck solved the ‘ultraviolet catastrophe’ by identifying the ‘quanta’ unit of action in the field of thermal dynamics, science began to evolve from classical physics to quantum physics. With quantum physics scientists began working with a new set of laws that could predict how electrons and other particles at the subatomic(extremely small scale) behaved. These new laws are referred to as the laws of ‘quantum mechanics‘ and includes such things as:

In the 1900’s when Max Planck solved the ‘ultraviolet catastrophe’ by identifying the ‘quanta‘ unit of action in the field of thermal dynamics, science began to evolve from classical physics to quantum physics.  With quantum physics scientists began working with a new set of laws that could predict how electrons and other particles at the subatomic (extremely small scale) behaved.  These new laws are referred to as the laws of ‘quantum mechanics‘ and includes such things as:

 ‘Quantum tunneling‘Quantum tunneling(think of throwing a ball at a window and it appears on the other side without breaking it), and

 ‘Wave-particle duality‘ 

(light and matter only behave like particles (as opposed to waves) in the presence of an intelligent observer) Wave particle duality (most famously shown by the double-slit experiment.)

 ‘Quantum entanglement’Quantum entanglementthis is what Albert Einstein called ‘spooky action at a distance’ (what is happening here and what is happening there are linked in a way that is impossible to explain in any sort of everyday reality.)

While the consequence of the discovery of these new quantum laws  has been the rapid evolution of technology in areas such as: quantum chemistry, quantum optics, quantum computing, superconducting magnets, light-emitting diodes, the optical amplifier, the laser, the transistor, semiconductors and medical and research imaging, the emergence of quantum mechanics has actually created an everlasting sort of ‘ANXIETY‘ amongst many of those in the SCIENTIFIC COMMUNITY. 

Why??

Well… as consistent and accurate as these quantum laws have been proven to be …THE LAWS OF QUANTUM MECHANICS SIMPLY DO NOT CORRESPOND TO LIFE AS WE KNOW IT!  QUANTUM MECHANICS  seems to have illuminated that there is a fundamental discrepancy between the average person’s conception of reality …. and how reality functions at the subatomic scale. And although these laws have shown themselves to be absolutely consistent and accurate there is no consensus among scientists as to what the basic building blocks that make them work are.

“This life of yours which you are living is not merely a piece of this entire existence, but in a certain sense the whole; only this whole is not so constituted that it can be surveyed in one single glance. This, as we know, is what the Brahmins {wise men or priests in the Vedic tradition} express in that sacred, mystic formula which is yet really so simple and so clear; Tat Tvam Asi  this is you. Or, again, in such words as ” I am in the east and the west, I am above and below, I am this entire world.”

Werner Heisenberg noted to Erwin Schrödinger that discussions he had about Indian philosophy had helped him a lot with his work in physics because they showed him that all these new ideas in quantum physics were not all that crazy. He realized that there was in fact a whole culture that subscribed to very similar ideas.

“Of course, we all know that our own reality depends on the structure of our consciousness; we can objectify no more than a small part of our world. But even when we try to probe into the subjective realm, we cannot ignore the central order…In the final analysis, the central order, or ‘the one’ as it used to be called and with which we commune in the language of religion must win out.”

Nikola Tesla was many years ahead of his time and this awareness drove his interest in the ancient Vedic traditions. In his work he studied both the eastern as well as the Western view of the mechanisms driving the material world.

Man’s Greatest Achievement

Long ago… [mankind] recognized that all perceptible matter comes from a primary substance, or tenuity beyond conception, filling all space, the Akasha or luminiferous ether, which is acted upon by the life-giving Prana or creative force, calling into existence, in never ending cycles all things and phenomena. The primary substance, thrown into infinitesimal whirls of prodigious velocity, becomes gross matter; the force subsiding, the motion ceases and matter disappears, reverting to the primary substance.

Ironically it was in the ancient teachings of India where the founding fathers of quantum mechanics (as well as the genius Nikola Tesla) found solace and clarity, the Hindu Vedas and Upanishads. 

Modern scientists have learned how to manipulate the laws of quantum mechanics  for the purposes of technology today (as noted above). However the term ‘quantum mechanics‘ implies that these laws are in effect at the ‘atomic‘ or ‘quantum‘ scale and the truth is… THAT WE ARE ALL MADE UP OF ATOMS. THEREFORE- these laws should be at work in humans and each and every living organism! 

To understand how these laws work in nature is very hard due to the difficulty of isolating all the other factors that are going on in nature (nature itself is not a lab). Also  we must remember modern scientists have learned how to work with the laws of quantum mechanics for the purpose of technology BUT they still don’t understand the fundamental reasons of WHY the laws of quantum mechanics work which makes it even harder to apply the laws of quantum mechanics to nature….

QUANTUM MECHANICS is the science dealing with the behavior of matter and light on the atomic and subatomic scale. It attempts to describe and account for the properties of molecules and atoms and their constituents—electrons, protons, neutrons, and other more esoteric particles such as quarks and gluons. These properties include the interactions of the particles with one another and with electromagnetic radiation (i.e., light, X-rays, and gamma rays).
