THE HOLOGRAPHIC UNIVERSETHE HOLOGRAPHIC UNIVERSETHE HOLOGRAPHIC UNIVERSE
Books such as The Tao of Physics (1975) by Fritjof Capra and The Dancing Wu Li Masters (1979) by Gary Zukav pointed out startling parallels between modern discoveries in quantum physics and ancient beliefs of Taoism, Buddhism, and Hinduism. Serious scientists were beginning to sound like mystics, and mystics were starting to talk about quantum mechanics and subatomic particles. The so-called ‘new physics’ seems poised to bridge the world of faith with the world of science through a common belief in a fundamentally interconnected universe.
One of the most interesting notions

PHYSICAL CHAOSENERGY, THE MONAD, THE DIVINE, AND A CHAOTIC UNIVERSEPHYSICAL CHAOS
Albert Einstein (1879-1955) was the first scientist to discover the relationship between, rather than the equivalence of, mass and energy (E = m.c^2, the relationship between mass, energy, and time).
In science, energy usually is considered essentially lifeless, and life is seen as a curious accident in the midst of the cosmic accident (Big Bang) that the universe commonly is considered to be.
The idea of energy is older than its name. Even in the time of Galileo (1564-1642), scientists recognised the existence of some constant quantity involve

THE CHICKEN OR THE EGGTHE CHICKEN AND EGG DILEMMATHE CHICKEN OR THE EGG
In The Wonderful Egg, a book written for children by Dahlov Zorach Ipcar, a mother dinosaur lays an egg that hatches into the very first bird. After growing up into a beautiful specimen complete with wings and feathers, it flies up into a tall tree and sings a happy song. (The little bird’s song may soon become a dirge when it realises that it has no one with whom to mate.)
So, which came first, the chicken or the egg?
I am delighted to report that after extensive navel contemplation, this quintessential human conundrum can be laid to rest. The answer (or answers),

WAS EINSTEIN MISGUIDEDTHE SPEED OF LIGHT: WAS EINSTEIN MISGUIDED?WAS EINSTEIN MISGUIDED
Is it true that Albert Einstein (1879-1955) was one of the great geniuses of our time, or was he just misguided?
Between his twenty-first and thirty-eighth birthdays he completed a so-called revolution in science, with and I quote, “profound repercussions at many levels”. The two supposed great breakthroughs were his Special Theory of Relativity (1905) and the General Theory of Relativity (1915). Special Relativity deals with high speeds (light), and General Relativity with gravity.
Einstein’s theories were ultimately derived from thought

READ ALL ABOUT ITREAD ALL ABOUT ‘IT FROM BIT’: DO WE NEED INFORMATION?READ ALL ABOUT IT
What exactly is information? And why should information not be confused with matter-energy?
When I see the leaves falling around me, I know winter is approaching. My brain (matter-energy) uses collateral energy in the process of thinking, but the matter-energy is not part of the information in my mind. Information is the stuff of mind; matter-energy (including the brain) is physical. Information is never physical, but it can be, and usually is, represented in some physical form.
The philosophy of information is defined as the area of

THE NATURE OF ENERGYTHE NATURE OF ENERGY: THE UNIVERSE IS A HUGE STEAM ENGINE, OR SO IT IS CLAIMEDTHE NATURE OF ENERGY
Can we realistically compare the Universe to a steam engine?
It all began with steam engines, developed and made practical in the 18th century, which were quite inefficient. Very little of the fuel (coal) consumed in heating water and making steam was converted into useful work (i.e. useful motion).
Engineers grew interested in studying the way in which heat flowed from one point to another in a closed-system and the manner in which it was converted into work. They hoped to learn to make the steam engine more efficient

THE ORIGIN OF LIFETHE ORIGIN OF LIFE: ARE WE ALL ALIENS?THE ORIGIN OF LIFE
Perhaps the most fundamental and at the same time the least understood biological problem is that of the origin of life. It is central to many religious, scientific, and philosophical problems and to any consideration of extraterrestrial life.
Vladimir Ivanovich Vernadsky (1863-1945) was a Russian geochemist and mineralogist who is considered one of the founders of geochemistry and biogeochemistry. His scientific legacy was to give us reflections on the most profound issues ever tackled by man: What is life? Is life

MITHRAS AND JESUSMITHRAS AND JESUS: IS THIS THE SAME OLD STORY OVER-AND-OVER AGAIN?MITHRAS AND JESUS
We are in the holiday season again. I know this because of the music in the stores and malls and the seasonal trimmings, plus all the Merry Christmas cards I keep on receiving. This is the biggest religious holiday of the year for Christians, and so of course, whether you are Christian or not, we all get subjected to it.
However, here is something to ponder over the Festive Season.
The Vatican was built upon the grounds previously devoted to the worship of Mithras. The

MAYAMAYA, IGNORANCE, AND ILLUSION: THE SOURCES OF EVILMAYA
In the final chapter of the Bhagavad Gita, Krishna says to Arjuna, “O Arjuna, the Lord dwells in the heart of all beings, while revolving them all on the wheel of transmigration by His mysterious power of Maya.”
This word, Maya, is one, which we hear quite often in discussions of the Hindu Vedanta, and, because it is a word that is so often misinterpreted, let us consider it carefully.
Maya is just another name for God’s power of manifestation, His power of form projection. How

Matter, Nature, and EvolutionMIND, NATURE, AND EVOLUTION: IS IT MATTER OR SPIRIT?Matter, Nature, and Evolution
What drives the evolution of life?
Most people associate mind and intelligence mainly with humans and only marginally with other highly evolved animals. We tend to regard humankind as separate from the rest of nature, a different order of being. In pre-modern times this was not so.
People of the ancient Germanic, and other, traditions, as well as medieval mystics like Saint Francis of Assisi (1181/82-1226) and Saint Ignatius Loyola (1491-1556) and others, saw the whole of natu

Beautiful NightThrough a field alone i stray unplanned upon a vision; before me fair, with lustrous hair, an angel takes me in A world beyond my world unfolds before two jaded eyes, painting truth in novel hues upon the sky, beyond all lies Softest night of starless sky, upon our field of clover, your gentle light ignites a flame that fills my heart with thunder The world so dim with fearful sin on days of brightest blue shines forth aglow with holy light, on a single night, when all is new, and an angel deigns to walk with youBeautiful Night
I know, if even I'm never shown another time with one so true, beneath a sky of spirit so bold
