“Things are not as they appear to be. Nor are they otherwise.”
—some Sutra

“Quantum mechanics, the latest development in the scientific quest to understand the nature of physical reality, is a precise mathematical description of the behavior of fundamental particles. It has remained the preeminent scientific description of physical reality for 70 years. So far all of its experimental predictions have been confirmed to astounding degrees of accuracy.”

From the movie: what the bleep do we know…

“Local reality” is the reality that is governed by the laws of classical physics. In a local reality, influences cannot travel faster than the speed of light. In 1964 Irish physicist John Stewart Bell showed that any model of reality compatible with quantum theory must be nonlocal. For quantum physics to work, information must travel not just faster than light, but instantaneously. Nonlocality suggests that everything in the universe is connected by
information that can appear anywhere else, instantaneously.

Q. If everything in the universe is able to communicate instantaneously with everything else, what establishes which information we receive?
What are the implications of nonlocality on how we can know the world?
How would this change our lives?
And, if I ever find out that some f…..r is evilly influencing me, g.d help them…
On the other hand, which poor soul am I unwittingly torturing???

So, we see that reality fades/winks in and out of existence gazillions of times per second because we now know that fundamental properties of the physical world are not fixed; the world changes in subtle ways depending on how we wish to observe it…[with apologies to the apostle Paul: Oh wretched man that I am, that I choose to observe my world the way I do, and who will deliver me from my self-created nightmare…?]
Causality has dissolved because the fixed arrow of time is now known to be a persistent illusion, a misapprehension sustained by the classical assumptions of an absolute space and time. We now know that sequences of events depend on the perspectives (technically called the frame of reference) of the observers. Continuity fades away because we now know that there are some discontinuities in the fabric of reality. Space and time are neither smooth nor contiguous.
Parting thought for today, as you can be sure there will be more of this coming your way…, lol, and by the way, lighten up, will ya…

Look around you. Imagine that what you are seeing is just the tip of the
iceberg, a special limited portion of a larger fabric of reality. Look where there appears to be nothing and imagine that this space is teaming with possibilities. Look where there appears to be something and imagine that what appears solid is mostly space. Feel your hands. Imagine them on the quantum level, particle/waves flashing in and out of existence.
Consider how our hands are communicating in quantum language with the rest of the universe…

Aaaggghhh…
