- 2009.04.22 Everything Is Energy
Time, space, and matter.
Matter seems like a good place to begin.
The solidity of the world seems totally indisputable.
As a fixed thing that you can see and touch,
your body is also reassuring the solid.
But beginning with Einstein, modern physics have assured us that
this solidity is a mirage. After all the bodies are made up of atoms,
and these items are particles that whirling at lightening speeds
around huge empty spaces.
And particles aren't material objects, they are fluctuations of energy
and information in the huge void of energy and information.
And if you can see the body as it really is, you would see that
99.9999% of it is mostly empty space.
And the 0.00001% of it which you see as matter is also empty space.
The matter is just an illusion. An artifact of our perceptual experiencess.
As you sift through this very solid looking material body,
you only have to go so far before you end up with handful of nothing.
This is a scientific fact.
The questions is what is this nothingness?
What is this empty space that makes up everything in existence?
Because it is very clear the basic raw material of the universe
is that it is not material. The essential stuff of the universe is non-stuff.
Because the atom, which is the basic unit of matter is not really a solid entity.
It's a void.
But is this void a emptiness?
Or could it be the womb of creation itself?
Could it be the source of life itself?
Is this non-stuff non-matter that makes up the entire universe just emptiness?
Or is it thinking non-stuff thinking non-matter that curves back
within its own self and creates everything in existence?
From matter to energy, and from time to space.
As you disect through the body the various layers of organs, tissues,
cells, molecules, and atoms peel away until the sub-atomic realm
all that remains are bundles of energy vibrations.
The nerve receptors in the body are switching stations that can take
energy vibrations and turn them into touch, sight, sound, and so-on.
