"YOU are a cloud of probability being observed by consciousness into reality.”
(Warning -Nerd Alert!!! 🤓)
One of the most famous experiments in modern physics, the 'Double Slit' experiment, demonstrates that the very act of observing a particle has a dramatic effect on its behavior. The experiment was designed to determine if light particles or ‘photons’ acted as a wave (essentially a cloud of probability) or a particle (defined matter). It was discovered was that light behaves as a wave under most conditions, but, when the motion of each photon is observed, then they act like particles instead! The ACT OF OBSERVATION determines whether particles act as either a wave or a particle. SO... If the particle is not observed, then it's behavior is completely determined by a probability function and produces a waveform. However, as soon as the movement is observed, then the probability waveform collapses, producing a single trajectory. This means that the behavior of an energy system is observer-dependent.
There are a few interpretations of what this means, all of them somewhat mind boggling. The perspective of the 'Relational interpretation' holds that the behavior of a quantum particle is a function of the relation between the particle and the observer.
This means that there is no physical property inherent in the energy particle which determines its motion – its behavior is observation dependent.
Essentially, as physical being composed of atoms and sub-atomic particles - YOU are a probability cloud being observed by consciousness into reality.
Even stranger the subsequent 'Delayed choice' experiment seems to demonstrate that the act of measurement/observation not only seems to influence the behavior of the particle, but that this influence can go backwards in time and retrospectively change the behavior and trajectory of particles.
Pretty Groovy right? But what does this have to do with us mere mortals just trying to do our best in this life?
If observers collapse the open possibility of particles into a specific destination (and therefore physical form) simply by the act of observing, this shows us the importance and power of focused intention and how it affects what we experience in our reality.
If when you change what you observe, you change the coding of the component particles, this changes the DNA, changes the proteins, which changes the cells, which changes you, which changes your live reality.... We can literally observe possibility into being.
Ultimately it means that where you choose to put your attention really matters, and that what we choose to observe and focus on determines the reality that we create.
Or, as one wise old geezer put it...
“We are what we think. All that we are arises with our thoughts. With our thoughts, we create the world.” – Buddha
