Prayer-Infinite Intelligence-Quantum Physics
by Charlene Ryan
Prayer has become a new cottage industry. Within the last five
years the New York Times has listed as best-sellers at least a
half dozen books extolling the value of prayer in some form. Cover
stories have appeared in popular magazines like Newsweek, and
television programs such as "Dateline NBC" have devoted
entire shows to this subject. In particular, physician Larry Dossey
in his Prayer Is Good Medicine: How to Reap the Healing Benefits
of Prayer (1996) and Healing Words: The Power of Prayer and the
Practice of Medicine (1993).
2001 National Day of Prayer was on May 3. America celebrated
its 50th annual National Day of Prayer in cities all over the
country. People who believe in the power of prayer filled churches,
crowded courthouse steps, surrounded city hall flagpoles, joined
together in the workplace and assembled in public parks. President
Bush talked about the role that prayer has played in our country's
history. "Our country was founded by great and wise people
who were fluent in the language of humility, praise and petition,"
Bush said. "In this house, I make many decisions. But as
I do so, as I make those decisions, I know that many Americans
lift me up in prayer." Prayer is our communion with God,
whether it be a petition made to God, worship, repentance, praise,
or thanksgiving. It doesn't have to be a laid-out patent prayer,
but words from the heart. Whatever your personal beliefs or religious
proclivity you can find people of a kindred spirit in prayer.
We all live, move, and have our being within the Infinite Divine
Intelligence we call GOD. It is aware of everything including
our thoughts, feelings, prayer, our loves and hates, and all the
things we do. It unconditionally allows all things and events
in Life in order for the human race to learn the RESPONSIBILITY
in the proper conduct of LIFE. It KNOWS that in the end, nothing
is ever lost, while the average person maintains the fear and
worry as to where the next meal may come from, or whether he or
she will survive the storm, the tempest, or the ravages of violence
and war.
Quantum Physicists such as Bohm and Pribram have discovered
that the only time atoms behave as particles, are when we are
looking at them ( observation). When we look away, or when we
are asleep, everything around us are wave forms of energy and
light. The wave form of the atom cannot be measured by any conventional
means of measurement as we know it. The strange phenomenon of
the wave form /particle behavior of the atom indicates that the
material realm we live in is not as material as we think it is.
The wave form of the atom has also shown properties of being in
two places at the same time. It does not follow the known laws
of physics. This is the realm of Spirit, or "Energy".
As most of us know, everything in our "material"
realm is composed of atoms, the things we can see, smell, hear,
taste, and touch, including our own bodies. What many of us are
not aware of, is that atoms do not always behave as particles
but as wave forms of energy as well. Wave forms are the things
that cannot be seen by our eyes. Wave forms are "Mental"
in nature and is the essence of atoms that compose undifferentiated
matter which is also energy or SPIRIT in nature. This mental aspect
of the wave form, is that atoms have shown properties of being
"intelligent" as each atom knows its position in the
order of manifestation and is "aware" of the relative
position of other particles. Every particle that exists in the
Universe, contains the image of the whole which is characteristic
of a hologram. If this is a Truth, then all of manifested life
and being emanates from a single source of causation that would
include all particles existing in the Universe. It means that
everything from sub atomic particles to giant galaxies and everything
in between contains information of the whole.
A hologram is created when a laser beam is split into two separate
beams by a beam splitter. One beam, called the object beam, is
bounced off the object. The object could be anything. The second
beam called the interference beam is allowed to collide with the
reflected light of the object beam and creates an interference
pattern that can be recorded on film. The interference pattern
recorded on film looks a lot like a series of meaningless concentric
circles. If another laser light, or bright light was shined through
the film, an eerie three dimensional copy of the original object
would appear.
If we were to cut off a small piece of the film that contained
the original image of the film, and shined a bright light through
it, we would again see the whole image of the original object
in three dimensions. Each piece of film contains the image of
the whole, but as the pieces of film are cut into smaller pieces,
the three dimensional image becomes fuzzier. This is a phenomenon
that is typical of our multi dimensional universe.
What is this strange phenomenon telling us? Are all of us humans,
like the small cut off pieces of film that contain the image of
the whole? If this is true, then we possess the image of the Creator
and all of us are part of the whole and at-one with it. It would
mean that all the information about the Universe is contained
within all of us. Is this why we can explore and uncover things
about the Universe because that information is already within
all of us? Is this perhaps the reason why man can mentally extract
knowledge regarding the Universe without leaving the seat of observation
on earth? Is education perhaps a discovery about what is already
known to the subconscious Mind? Quantum physics tells us that
our prayers are received by divine Infinite Intelligence. During
this time It imperative that all of our minds, bodies and souls
are focused in prayer on Peace and healing for the planet.
Mark 11:24 Therefore I say unto you, What things so ever ye
desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive (them), and ye shall
have (them).
