In sup****t of the idea of creating one's reality and that the horoscope
makes sense from the holographic view, I here present an excerpt from
the Holographic Universe by Michael Talbot.
In order for the horoscope to be a reflection to the senses of another
aspect that is not necessarily physical, we must acknowledge the current
theories of reality being IMPLICATE and enfolded. In other words as in
experiments where photons were shown to act as if they were connected
even though no physical connection could be made, (Alain Aspect, Jean
Dalibard, Gerard Roger of University of paris -Optics) this aspect known
as a "nonlocal" implication reveals all particles are continually
interacting and separating so that this evidence of the
interconnectedness of "All That Is" "the nonlocal aspects of quantum
systems is therefore a general property of nature."(Paul Davis,
"Superforce", New York, 1984, page 48).
This nonlocal aspect reflects the idea that although physically
untestable (which by the way MANY theories still are and may be for many
years-such as superstring theories etc.) are never- the-less sup****ted
by these studies with some evidence of the interconnectedness of the
universe. This just makes sense to me intuitively and I am quite sure it
will not be long when science will validate what astrologers have known
for a long time. That our consciousness is reflected in and is a part of
the surrounding cosmos. As above so below.
The main architects of this astoni****ng idea are two of the world's
most eminent thinkers: University of London physicist David Bohm,
a protege of Einstein's and one of the world's most respected quantum
physicists; and Karl Pribram, a neurophysiologist at Stanford Univer-
sity and author of the classic neuropsychological textbook Languages
of the Brain.
Pribram and Bohm Together
Considered together, Bohm and Pribram's theories provide a profound
new way of looking at the world: Our brains mathematically con-
struct objective reality by interpreting frequencies that are ulti-
mately projections from another dimension, a deeper order of exis-
tence that is beyond both space and time: The brain is a hologram
enfolded in a holographic universe.
For Pribram, this synthesis made him realize that the objective
world does not exist, at least not in the way we are accustomed to
believing. What is "out there" is a vast ocean of waves and frequen-
cies, and reality looks concrete to us only because our brains are able
to take this holographic blur and convert it into the sticks and stones
and other familiar objects that make up our world. How is the brain
(which itself is composed of frequencies of matter) able to take
something as insubstantial as a blur of frequencies and make it seem
solid to the touch? "The kind of mathematical process that Bekesy
simulated with his vibrators is basic to how our brains construct our
image of a world out there," Pribram states.' In other words, the
smoothness of a piece of fine china and the feel of beach sand be-
neath our feet are really just elaborate versions of the phantom limb
syndrome.
According to Pribram this does not mean there aren't china cups and
grains of beach sand out there. It simply means that a china cup has
two very different aspects to its reality. When it is filtered through
the lens of our brain it manifests as a cup. But if we could get rid of
our lenses, we'd experience it as an interference pattern. Which one is
real and which is illusion? "Both are real to me," says Pribram, "or, if
you want to say, neither of them are real." a This state of affairs is
not limited to china cups. We, too, have two very different aspects to
our reality. We can view ourselves as physical bodies moving through
space. Or we can view ourselves as a blur of interference patterns
enfolded throughout the cosmic hologram.
Bohm believes this second point of view might even be the more
correct, for to think of ourselves as a holographic mind/brain looking
at a holographic universe is again an abstraction, an attempt to sepa-
rate two things that ultimately cannot be separated.
Do not be troubled if this is difficult to grasp. It is relatively easy
to understand the idea of holism in something that is external to us,
like an apple in a hologram. What makes it difficult is that in this
case we are not looking at the hologram. We are part of the hologram.
The difficulty is also another indication of how radical a revision
Bohm and Pribram are trying to make in our way of thinking. But it
is not the only radical revision. Pribram's assertion that our brains
construct objects pales beside another of Bohm's conclusions: that we
even construct space and time. The implications of this view are
just one of the subjects that will be examined as we explore the effect
Bohm and Pribram's ideas have had on the work of researchers in other
fields.
