Healing and the New Physics


According to the New Physics our knowledge of what governs events at the sub-atomic level is not nearly what we assumed it would be. So, why is this important to our health? According to Niels Bohr the workings of conscious thought occur on such a minute scale, involving such infinitesimal exchanges of energy, that only a quantum mechanical explanation could properly account for the actual phenomenon of consciousness. In more basic terms, our conscious mental activity can affect not only our physical body but other physical bodies in the universe. The belief is that thoughts, attitudes and healing intentions of one person can influence the body of another. This means when we fast and pray for our loved ones those thoughts and feelings can be transferred to them and actually changes them. This is true of all our thoughts all of the time, not only when we fast or pray. A principle of New Physics is that each of our bodies is in dynamic relationship with the universe and every other body via sub quantum contact. When someone smiles at you there is a change that occurs within you. Thoughts have the same impact. The mood a person is in because of their thoughts can be felt by someone observing them. That is the idea of the New Physics at work!

Another new idea that comes from the New Physics is the idea of connectedness. Unlike the New Physics, Newtonian physics focuses on the relationship between separate parts. If there is no separation then the spiritual and physical bodies are constantly affected by one another. In order to achieve our greatest growth we must integrate the spiritual and physical, because it is only when they are unified toward change that progress can be made. David Bohm a quantum physicist believed that we possess the ability to listen to our bodies, and thus harness the disease process to redirect our lives and to acknowledge and accept the oneness of our own being. When we fast we are mastering the physical body and giving the spirit more strength. It is at this time that we need to listen to our body as a whole and evaluate the way we feel and then to make changes in accordance.

We have more power than we realize to change the way we feel and the way others feel. Another principle of New Physics is that all reality is interconnected at the deepest levels. We cannot avoid the impact that we have so we should focus our efforts on becoming whole and finding happiness so that others can feel of our being.
