\"Holographic<\/a>

Modern science is turning our notion of what constitutes the Universe on its ear, and nowhere is this more evident than the theory that the Universe itself is a hologram. \u00a0Beginning with quantum physics and particle\/wave theory, which suggested in the early part of the 20th century that the Universe is operating on many different levels than our three-dimensional reality would suggest. \u00a0One of its early proponents, Niehls Bohr, wrote: \u201cAnyone who is not shocked by quantum theory has not understood it\u201d.<\/p>\n

I make no pretense of understanding quantum theory, but I know that somehow it explains the nature of the multidimensional physical reality that mystics have talked about for thousands of years. David Bohm\u2019s theory of the Implicate Order suggests that everything is connected with everything else \u2013 the principle that underlies all of holistic spirituality. Since everything in our Universe is made up of energy, and the movement of energy enfolds the entire Universe of space and time, this \u201cenfoldment\u201d may continue endlessly into infinite dimensionality.<\/p>\n

It is psychedelicized thoughts like this that used to send me into a tailspin of terror! \u00a0But this concept of an endless flow of connectivity between dimensions is something that has been in the forefront of mystical thought since the beginning of time. \u00a0The very basis of astrological thought, the adage \u201cas above, so below\u201d is a holographic concept. \u00a0From the Upanishads, written in the second millenium bce:<\/p>\n

As great as the infinite space beyond is the space within the lotus of the heart. Both heaven and earth are contained in that inner space, both fire and air, sun and moon, lightning and stars. Whether we know it in this world or know it not, everything is contained in that inner space. (Chandogya, 191)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

(Source<\/em><\/a>) \u00a0This wonderful article<\/a> connecting mystical wisdom to modern holographic concepts elaborates:<\/p>\n

A mystical account of holography suggests missing links between the practical methods used to create holographs and the hidden nature of the Self.\u00a0 Modern holographers have a paradigm but no coherent light to illuminate it \u2013 no point source of light to project the experiences of our lives.\u00a0 Recall Dr. Pribram stating that his theory was not meant to imply that there are any \u201claser beams in the brain,.\u00a0\u00a0 Instead, Pribram considers that the neurological circuitry of the brain acts as a referent beam within the holographic brain.<\/p>\n

In contrast, occult or mystical perspectives suggest that there is a zero-point foundation of pure coherent supernal light which is enthroned within the Heart of a human being.\u00a0 This quantum of consciousness, the spiritual or divine spark, provides the point of coherent light which illuminates the varied activities of the mind, brain and body.\u00a0 This point source of \u201csupernal light\u201d originates from a realm of \u201cunified light\u201d within the divine realm of being.\u00a0 Further, the mystical Heart Centre of a human being establishes a deep relationship to the Sun, the Heart of the Solar System, and to the Heart of all Being.<\/p>\n

The self-luminous Self establishes the referent beam for the projection of the dimensions of our lives \u2013 our physical lives, and\u00a0 the afterlife existence.\u00a0\u00a0 A mystical holography suggests that the holographs of our lives do not simply occur within the head, but are seated on the foundation of the zero-point laya centre of the Heart.\u00a0 Four dimensional space-time is itself somehow \u201csqueezed out\u201d of this supernal point. The Heart is enlivened and illuminated by the pure coherent light energies of the Self and the Spiritual Intelligences which inform material creation from within\/without.<\/p>\n

Mystical views provide a most productive orientation towards elaborating the holographic mechanism of the Self.\u00a0 Unfortunately, the holographers in modern psychology have forgotten the spiritual or divine element, the God spark, the quantum of consciousness, the zero point source of coherent light emerging from within the metaphysical dimension of the heart.\u00a0 This is such a point of light which could\u00a0 implicate the whole and allow for the synthesis of psychological views with physical\/metaphysical theories.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

As our mental brain expands to encompass these new paradigm-shattering ideas, our heart and soul can expand simultaneously to achieve greater understanding of the true nature of metaphysical reality. \u00a0When we approach the astrological symbolism from this expanded viewpoint we are no longer limited by \u201cmalefic\u201d planets and fear of \u201cbad\u201d transits. \u00a0Everything that occurs in our lives belongs to the greater evolution of the soul, and life becomes a series of holographic cycles rather than a continuum that leads us from past to future along a straight line of predestined events.<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
